Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

Zhang Renkang asked Qin Huairu how many painkillers Jia Zhang took in a month. Qin Huairu calculated and cried.

"My mother-in-law has to buy three yuan worth of it every month. I usually see her pouring it out and eating it directly in her hands?"

Zhang Renkang exclaimed

"Qin Huairu, this is not a joke. Painkillers cost 50 cents a hundred tablets, and three dollars means 600 tablets? It's impossible for Jia Zhang to get so much even if he robbed the pharmacy."

The painkillers at that time contained a certain amount of opium, so they were limited in quantity in China. Each person could only buy 50 cents a month, which was about 100 tablets.

Qin Huairu cried and said

"I bought it for my mother-in-law once, and she seemed to have someone in the hospital buy it for her."

As soon as Qin Huairu said this, the aunt slapped her thigh and said

"Mrs. Jia Zhang came to me and my third aunt to buy it every month, saying that she would give me ten cents, but I refused."

When the three aunts heard this, they lowered their heads and whispered

"This Jia Zhang always asks me to buy things for her, but she only gives me five cents. This old hag is really outrageous."

At this time, the women who were watching the excitement in the courtyard also spoke out

"Yes, Jia Zhang also bought from me."

"And I"

……

All of a sudden, the women in the courtyard said that they had also bought painkillers for Jia Zhang. Zhang Renkang saw that almost everyone had bought painkillers for Jia Zhang, so he sighed and said

"Painkillers contain sedative and addictive ingredients, namely opium. When we talk about smoking opium, we are referring to smoking opium."

"Jia Zhang is using illegal drugs and is now addicted. She needs to be sent to a special drug rehabilitation center, otherwise she will go crazy if she stops taking the drugs."

Jia Zhang's illness directly exposed a major hidden danger in the courtyard. Yan Bugui glanced at Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, and said to Zhang Renkang worriedly

"Renkang, you have a lot of experience, what do you think we should do about Jia Zhang's situation?"

Zhang Renkang sighed and said

"It depends on your choice. The road is blocked by heavy snow now. We can only detain him for the time being and have someone to watch over him."

"But that's not the problem. What will happen when everyone goes to work? There are women and children in the yard. If Jia Zhang commits the same offense again, can you bear the consequences?"

"Secondly, what Jia Zhang is doing is no different from smoking opium. If we don't report this to the government, you two uncles will have to bear all the responsibility and may even be implicated."

As soon as Zhang Renkang finished speaking, Liu Haizhong shook his head and said

"The hospital can't afford this problem. Let Guangtian go and see if the alley is passable. Go to the back and call Director Wang. This matter can only be decided by the street office."

Yan Bugui nodded and said

"What Lao Liu said makes sense. Our hospital has no power to decide on this matter. Smoking opium is a very serious issue."

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were unwilling to take any responsibility for Jia Zhangshi. If something went wrong, and the street office reported it to the factory and school, it would be considered that they were protecting Jia Zhangshi's drug use. They were unwilling to do that.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai stood up and said

"Old Liu, Old Yan, what you said is inappropriate. Didn't Jia's sister-in-law just take some painkillers? How is this related to smoking opium?"

"I don't think the matter is that serious. Once the snow stops, I can just buy some painkillers for Jia's sister-in-law. It's been so many years, it's not that exaggerated."

"You are all aware of the conflict between Zhang Renkang and the Jia family. Maybe it is just Zhang Renkang's family talking, and he has ulterior motives."

Yi Zhonghai subconsciously jumped out and sang a different tune. He hated Zhang Renkang to the core, but he also had a grudge against him. Moreover, if Zhang Renkang took Jia Zhang away, who else could Yi Zhonghai use in this courtyard?

As soon as Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong became a little hesitant again. They also knew about the relationship between Zhang Renkang and the Jia family. For a moment, they really didn't know what to do.

At this time, Liu Donglai from the Liu family in the front yard suddenly asked

"Renkang, does this Jia Zhang often get sick?"

Zhang Renkang shook his head, looked at Yi Zhonghai with disdain, and turned to Liu Dong.

"It's hard to say. I'm not a doctor. It depends on how long Jia Zhang has been using drugs illegally. If her drug addiction is severe, then it might be true. But it's your choice. Anyway, I'm at home, Yu Li and I are at work, and Yu Shui is at school. Even if Jia Zhang has an attack, it won't cause any loss to me."

Zhang Renkang stood back with his arms folded, looking like he was watching the fun. Liu Dong glanced at Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui and said

"Uncle San, you still have Aunt San and Yan Jie Di at home, right? I also have my wife and my son (five years old) at home. I don't feel comfortable leaving a drug addict in the yard. Who will be held responsible if something goes wrong?"

Yan Bugui was also hesitant and undecided. When Yi Zhonghai heard Liu Donglai's words, he said

"Donglai, how many years has Jia Zhang been in the courtyard?"

"Have you ever seen a drug addict? Besides, if word gets out that there's a drug addict in our hospital, it'll be bad for the hospital's reputation. How will Jie Cheng, Guang Tian and other young men talk about dating?"

Yi Zhonghai's words changed the subject, which made it even more difficult for Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to make up their minds. Suddenly, Zhang Renkang behind him said quietly.

"How many years will this person who shields opium smokers be sentenced to? Let me think about it."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui realized that this was not just a neighborhood conflict. Those who smoked opium and were enemy spies were the targets of severe crackdowns by the street office and the government. If they really exposed it, they would not be able to be the bosses, and they might even end up in jail.

Liu Haizhong waved his hand and shouted

"Liu Guangtian, go see if anyone can get through the alley, and go to the backyard to call Director Wang."

Yan Bugui was not to be outdone and shouted

"Yan Jiecheng, why don't you go quickly?"

Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian did not dare to hesitate and ran towards the front gate. Yi Zhonghai saw this and quickly stopped them.

"Wait, you two stop."

He turned around and glared at Zhang Renkang fiercely, pointing at him and said

"Zhang Renkang, you won't be satisfied until the Jia family is ruined, right?"

"Sister-in-law Jia just took some painkillers and you just smoked opium. How can you be so vicious at such a young age?"

"Aren't you afraid of retribution for doing this?"

When Zhang Renkang heard what Yi Zhonghai said, he turned his face and walked towards Yi Zhonghai. His ferocious look scared Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiefang who were sandwiched between them and quickly moved aside. Zhang Renkang walked in front of Yi Zhonghai, and Yi Zhonghai's finger was about to point at Zhang Renkang's nose. Zhang Renkang said with disdain

"Yi Zhonghai, since you care so much about Jia Zhang, I have a suggestion. How about letting Yi Zhonghai be responsible for all of Jia Zhang's actions?"

Then he continued to say to Yi Zhonghai

"Didn't Yi Zhonghai say that Jia Zhang's drug addiction is okay? If Jia Zhang relapses, do you dare to get out of the yard with Jia Zhang?"

"How about you pay for all the losses caused by Jia Zhang's illness?"

Yi Zhonghai said with a stern look

"Why should I pay for the Jia family?"

As soon as Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Zhang Renkang quickly grabbed Yi Zhonghai's outstretched finger with his left hand and twisted it downwards. Yi Zhonghai's face changed in pain, and his other hand was about to pinch Zhang Renkang's neck. Zhang Renkang grabbed Yi Zhonghai's outstretched hand with his right hand and said word by word:

"You don't dare? Who gave you the courage to question me?"

"Yi Zhonghai, tell me, who gave you the courage? Do you dare to point a finger at me, or do you think I dare not slap you in the face?"
