Soul of the Siheyuan: Zhuzi, I can still give birth

All the neighbors donated, except Xu Damao and He Yuzhu.

At this time, Jia Zhang pointed at Xu Damao and said.

"Xu Damao, everything that happened tonight was caused by your chicken, why don't you donate some money?"

Xu Damao looked at Jia Zhang as if she were a fool.

"Fuck, your grandson stole my chicken, and now you want me to donate money to your family for compensation. What the hell is wrong with you?"

He cursed Jia Zhang in his heart, but then he thought about it again.

"I lost my chicken, so the compensation money will be mine in the end. I donate it, and it will go into Xu Damao's pocket anyway. Maybe I can even gain a good reputation in Siheyuan this way, so why not do it?"

So Xu Damao took out ten yuan and put it directly on the table.

"Wow, is Xu Damao crazy? Ten yuan, an old man only donated ten yuan. Does Xu Damao want to be an old man?"

"Oh, the first uncle is the ex-husband of the widow Qin, and this Xu Damao is also the ex-husband of the widow Qin. Maybe these two ex-husbands are just fighting!"

"Hahaha……!"

I don't know who said that, but the neighbors in the yard burst into laughter.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned red with shame and he glared at Xu Damao fiercely.

Qin Jingru's face also looked unhappy.

He also glared at Xu Damao, and then glared at Qin Huairu fiercely.

All the neighbors donated money to a certain extent, and only He Yuzhu was left standing aside. No one knew where he got the melon seeds from, but he was now eating them.

Seeing a pile of money on the table, the third uncle and the second uncle began to sort the money.

In the past, when there were fundraising activities, they were the two of them responsible for clearing the finances, and they did it in front of everyone.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai walked up to He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, everyone donated money except you. Are you special? Every time you are asked to donate money, you never donate."

At this time, Jia Zhang also came over and pointed at He Yuzhu and said.

"That's right. You are the only one who is special. My family can't even make ends meet, but you don't even bother to help my family. You are really a heartless person."

Facing the accusations from the two old guys, He Yuzhu finished eating the melon seeds in his hand, spit out the melon seed shells in his mouth to the two of them, and then said.

"Do you two have hydrocephalus? This time Yi Zhonghai asked for donations, it was supposed to be compensation for me. Would I donate money to compensate myself? Are you crazy?"

After saying that, he took out a handful of melon seeds from his bag and continued to eat them.

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang were also speechless.

It seems that the donation made today was to compensate He Yuzhu, and I even forgot about it.

At this time, the second and third uncles had already counted the money, a total of thirty-seven yuan, fifty-four cents.

He Yuzhu took the thirty-plus yuan directly, put it in his pocket, and then said to Qin Huairu who was still wiping tears beside him.

When Xu Damao saw He Yuzhu put all the money into his pocket, he immediately quit.

"Silly Zhu, isn't that money mine? Why did you put it in your bag?"

He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao as if he was an idiot and said.

"Shamao, are you sick? I bought your chicken for two dollars. It's mine now. Get out of my way or I'll kill you too!"

Xu Damao wanted to argue a little bit, but was stopped by Qin Jingru who was standing beside him.

"Da Mao, don't go head-to-head with Brother Zhuzi. We can't beat him, so don't let him take care of you later."

After hearing Qin Jingru's words, Xu Damao, who had originally wanted to show off, suddenly became speechless. He could only shrink aside again and dared not speak again.

But he was still mumbling.

"Widow Qin, you still owe me twelve dollars and forty-six cents. Tell me when you will give it to me."

Qin Huairu was so greedy when she saw He Yuzhu taking away so much money.

Now this idiot suddenly made up the remaining money after eating.

"Zhu...Zhu Zi, I've already given you more than thirty yuan. Can you give me the rest...?"

"No! Either give it to me right now, or I'll call the police to arrest him."

He Yuzhu didn't give Qin Huairu any chance to delay. This woman, as long as she could delay, she would find all kinds of reasons to prevent you from getting the compensation.

"But... our family is really out of money. We can't even take out a penny now!"

Qin Huairu continued to play the victim in an attempt to gain He Yuzhu's sympathy.

"It's okay. Just because you don't have money now doesn't mean you won't have money in the future. There are still a few days before your salary is paid. Just give it to me when you get it."

Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what He Yuzhu said.

As long as you are not asked to pay the money right away, then this money... if you want to receive it, it depends on whether you, Shazhu, have the ability to do so.

How could it be so easy to get my, Qin Huairu's, money?

"Okay, Zhuzi, after I get my salary in a few days, Sister Qin will give you the remaining money. If there's nothing else, I'll take the kids back first."

After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she was about to take the three children, whose faces were already pale with fear, home, but was stopped by He Yuzhu.

"Wait a minute, Widow Qin, due to your family's previous reputation, if you owe me money, you must use something as collateral. When you pay me all the money, you can take back the collateral."

He Yuzhu's just one sentence disrupted Qin Huairu's wishful thinking.

"You...what do you want to mortgage my house?"

Qin Huairu seemed to see a hint of cruelty in He Yuzhu's cunning eyes.

"Your house! What good things can there be in your house? I think the only thing worth money in your house is that sewing machine. Just use that sewing machine as collateral."

Qin Huairu's family has a sewing machine, which was bought by Jia Dongxu through his connections when they got married. It is also the only valuable thing in the Jia family.

Usually Qin Huairu would go out to do some sewing and mending work to supplement the family income.

If you do a lot of work in a month, you can earn seven or eight yuan.

"Zhu Zi, you know, the sewing machine at my house is used by me to supplement the family income. If it is taken away, I won't be able to do those jobs anymore."

"Please don't take my sewing machine away, okay?"

Qin Huairu almost knelt down to He Yuzhu. To Qin Huairu, that sewing machine really could not be taken away.

At this time, Jia Zhang also came over and pointed at He Yuzhu and started to scold him.

'Snapped'

A crisp slap was heard, and a slap mark appeared on Jia Zhang's face.

"Old man, I haven't hit you in two years. Are you a little too proud?"

After being slapped, Jia Zhang didn't dare to throw a tantrum anymore. The man in front of her was now Sha Zhu, not Deputy Director He. If he said he would hit someone, he would definitely hit someone.

"Give me the money or the sewing machine? I'll give you five seconds to think about it. Five... four... three..."

He Yuzhu counted, and every count was a torment for Qin Huairu.

She still had some money, but not much, enough to make up for the money she owed He Yuzhu.

But if I take it out, I will be left with no money, and I can't bear to do that.

He Yuzhu has lived through two lifetimes, so how could he not know the true nature of this white lotus?

This is a rat spirit, who is very good at hiding things.

Seeing that Qin Huairu didn't move, He Yuzhu knew that she wanted to play the victim again, so he ignored her and walked straight to Jia's house.

Qin Huairu originally wanted to delay time and play a miserable role so that the matter could be resolved.

I didn't expect this idiot to go straight into the house.

"Zhu Zi, Zhu Zi, wait a minute, I'll give you money, I'll give you money."

After saying that, he searched his pocket and took out some money.

"So Widow Qin is rich, why does she want us to donate money?"

"That's right, Uncle One, Uncle Two, and Uncle Three, what do you mean? It's always like this."

The neighbors in the yard were all indignant, and the second uncle was so scared that he quickly came out to clarify.

"Dear neighbors, it's not me, Liu Haizhong, who asked you to donate money. I am also a victim. This matter was led by Yi Zhonghai. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to Yi Zhonghai."

The third uncle was also afraid of arousing public anger, so he spoke hurriedly.

"Me too! No, what I mean is that I was forced just like Second Master."

Seeing the two managers who betrayed him, Yi Zhonghai wanted to say something to them, but he didn't know what to say.

It was indeed he who asked all the neighbors in the courtyard to donate money to the Jia family.

But I wasn't wrong either.

The Jia family is living in such a difficult situation now, and my income is no more than before. I want to help, but I can’t.

So am I doing anything wrong in mobilizing everyone to donate money to the Jia family to help them overcome their difficulties and improve their quality of life?

"We are all neighbors, and helping each other is our tradition. The fact that we are rated as a civilized compound every year is not just the credit of the three of us uncles."

"Why didn't you question the benefits when they were distributed at the end of each year? Now that the money is donated, you are arguing. You think you are just taking advantage, but you don't want to give anything back. Do you think your behavior is justified?!"

The neighbors shut up at this time.

Although Yi Zhonghai has selfish motives, Siheyuan has been able to get a lot of things from the street office every year over the years.

After I took it back, I shared it equally with everyone in the courtyard.

Anyway, as long as it doesn’t involve the Jia family’s affairs, Yi Zhonghai is still a pretty good person.

After taking the dozen yuan from Qin Huairu, He Yuzhu said happily to the neighbors in the yard.

"We caught a chicken thief today, and we have to thank everyone for participating. Let me take out ten yuan and buy melon seeds, peanuts and candies tomorrow. I will distribute them to everyone tomorrow. Okay, everyone go away!"

"Uoooh, long live the pillar, long live the pillar!"

The neighbors in the yard cheered and went back home one after another.

He Yuzhu won the support of the people in the courtyard for just a small favor, which made Yi Zhonghai and the other three uncles feel a little embarrassed.

I have done so much for the yard, but I have rarely heard anyone say "long live" or even "thank you".

Yi Zhonghai walked up to He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, don't be too complacent. Leave some space for us so that we can meet again in the future! I still say the same thing, I advise you to be kind!"

After saying this, he was about to leave and go to Jia's house for dinner, but he heard He Yuzhu say.

"Yi Zhonghai, I think you, as an old man, should stop doing this. Look at you, the neighbors in the courtyard have a lot of opinions about you, and you still have the nerve to advise me to be kind."

"Why, if I don't help the Jia family, does that mean I'm not kind?"

"You are kind. Widow Qin lied to you that she was pregnant. Is she kind?"

"You were kind when you accepted bribes and helped those workers cheat on their exams?"

"For Widow Qin, you divorced the aunt who had been with you for decades. Are you kind?"

"You old man, you have the nerve to talk to me about kindness!?"

There were still some neighbors in the yard who had not returned home yet, and they were all eating melons at this time.

"Yi Zhonghai, if you want to be a slut, that's your own business. Don't drag all the neighbors into it. After all, not everyone wants to sleep with that widow Qin!"

He Yuzhu's words were heard by Qin Huairu who was standing nearby. This shameless white lotus was so angry that she covered her face and ran home crying.

Bang Geng was also staring at He Yuzhu viciously at this time.

He understood that it was this idiot Zhu who bullied his mother.

"Just wait, idiot. Sooner or later, I will steal everything from your house."

Jia Zhang took Banggeng and the other kids back to Jia's house and slammed the door.

Yi Zhonghai was speechless after being confronted by He Yuzhu. He pointed at He Yuzhu with a red face and was unable to speak for a long time. Finally, he only said one sentence.

"It's really unreasonable."

Then I went home.

It seems that we won’t be able to have dinner at the Jia family tonight, so you should go home and eat by yourself.

Because the second uncle had something to hide, he didn't dare to look He Yuzhu in the eye, for fear that He Yuzhu would see through his mistake and deal with him.

He disappeared as soon as the meeting was over.

As for the third uncle, he also held a glass of wine and said to He Yuzhu with a smile.

"Zhu Zi, Uncle San has bought the wine. Let's go home, or the duck will be cold."

Looking at the duck in the casserole, the uncle couldn't wait to taste it.

He Yuzhu carried the casserole and returned to the He family, chatting and laughing with the third uncle.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai saw this scene through the crack in the door and his teeth were broken.

"You damn fool, I was so good to you before, but you are not grateful at all. Yan Bugui bought you off with a bottle of wine. You are such an ungrateful person."

Yi Zhonghai felt indignant when he thought about how good he and Auntie had been to the He brothers and sisters.

All my hard work and efforts were just wasted.

After scolding He Yuzhu, Yi Zhonghai fell into deep thought again.

I may retire in a few years, so I have to make plans for my future.

An old lady will definitely not take care of herself.

Because I sent things there several times, but was turned away by the lady every time.

And it seems that someone introduced a partner to the aunt.

I am a factory worker. I have been married, but due to health reasons, I have never had children.

Later, his wife died of depression, and the man never remarried.

Yi Zhonghai also learned that the aunt was already discussing marriage with that man, and they might get married during this period.

That man liked Li Zhenzhen very much, which was one of the reasons why the aunt agreed to marry him.

After learning the news, Yi Zhonghai's last hope of reconciliation was shattered like a bubble.

That's why he is now sparing no effort to help the Jia family.

Now only the Jia family members are his support, and he must hold on to this big tree of the Jia family no matter what.

Originally, Yi Zhonghai wanted to have a good relationship with Sha Zhu.

Now that he is no longer the factory leader, Yi Zhonghai thought that he could control him, but he didn't expect that this stupid Zhu is still so difficult to deal with.

In the days that followed, whenever He Yuzhu had time, he would go to the Ran family to see his wife and children and deliver supplies to his father-in-law's house.

Qin Huairu would appear in front of He Yuzhu from time to time, either offering to clean the house for He Yuzhu or to wash clothes for He Yuzhu.

But they were all ignored by He Yuzhu.

After learning that He Yuzhu had been dismissed, Li Huaide used his father-in-law's connections to find out that it was Liu Haizhong who reported He Yuzhu.

Tell He Yuzhu about this.

"Don't worry, Zhuzi. I'll beat up Liu Haizhong when I get back. He's really brave. Don't worry. I'll take care of it for you."

Li Huaide patted his chest and said to He Yuzhu.

In fact, He Yuzhu had already guessed that Liu Haizhong would report him, so he was not surprised at all when he learned the news.

"Thank you, Director Li. I don't know how to thank you!"

He Yuzhu still said to Li Huaide with gratitude.

Li Huaide chuckled at this time and whispered to He Yuzhu.

"Please give me some more of your Yin-nourishing and Yang-strengthening soup. I've been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately!"

Li Huaide spoke calmly and did not treat He Yuzhu as an outsider at all.

"Okay, wait for me at the factory gate tomorrow morning, I'll go buy herbs in the afternoon!"

He Yuzhu also patted his chest and made the promise, which made Li Huaide very happy. He patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder and left.

After a while, the radio broadcast an announcement that the seventh-level blacksmith Liu Haizhong, the production team leader, had been dismissed. The announcement was repeated five times, which was unprecedented.
