Mr. Jia Zhang doesn't have much conscience, just a little bit, and Banggeng is one of them.
In her opinion, Bangge was a male member of the Jia family, who would inherit the Jia family's business and hold her ashes in the future.
After listening to Qin Huairu's words, Jia Zhang could only give up the idea of 'cooking raw rice into cooked rice'.
He let out a long sigh, patted the bed and said: "Well, what should we do? Banggeng is already twenty-three this year, and he is not married yet. Xinhua from the old Wang family next door is as old as him, and his sons are now three. That’s it. Otherwise, you go ask Shazhu and ask him to give up the money.”
As she said that, Mrs. Jia Zhang glanced at Sophora japonica next to her. When she saw that Sophora japonica was sleeping soundly, she lifted the quilt, moved her legs in front of Qin Huairu, and whispered: "As long as Silly Zhu is willing to give up the money, I will I have no objection to the matter between you and him. Whether you are willing to testify or sleep together, my wife doesn’t care."
A while ago, Shazhu was about to marry Qin Huairu.
After they got married, the Jia family became the He family. Banggan was their son, and Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua were their daughters. But what about the Jia and Zhang family?
As the former parents-in-law, Jia Zhang might have to be sent back to Jiajiazhuang.
She has been in the city for decades and has long been used to the days when she has to put on her clothes and open her mouth to eat.
When I returned to Jiajiazhuang, I could only work hard with the commune members in the countryside.
Mrs. Jia Zhang is a sensible person, so naturally she cannot let the two get married, so she makes trouble.
Bang Gang had disliked Sha Zhu since he was a child, and had a fight with Sha Zhu the next day. Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu's marriage was never mentioned again.
"Mom, what are you talking about!" Qin Huairu stamped her feet with a pretty face and said, "You really think I want to marry Silly Zhu."
Qin Huairu knows that for men, what is not available is the best, and domestic flowers do not have the fragrance of wild flowers.
Catching a fool is far more cost-effective than marrying a fool.
She stared at Mrs. Jia Zhang sincerely and said: "Mom, don't worry, I won't marry Silly Zhu for the time being. Also, Silly Zhu doesn't have that much money. The old deaf lady got sick a while ago, and Silly Zhuhua Got a lot of money.”
"Then what should we do? We can't watch Banggeng being single."
"I have a good idea, you know? The exclusive yard behind our courtyard house is sold."
"Ah, I heard Lao Zhang's mother say that there are two houses in that yard, and it is still a single family. Who is so rich!" Mrs. Jia Zhang seemed to have noticed Qin Huairu's intention, and her triangular eyes lit up instantly.
"The accent sounds like they are from out of town. There is a man and a woman. The man is the woman's cousin. The woman is wearing the most fashionable Braji, and the man is wearing a gray tunic suit and a pair of shiny leather shoes. Look. They are very rich. If we can get money from them, Banggan's marriage will be settled." Qin Huairu said with a smile on his face.
"Yes, yes, let's borrow money!" Mrs. Jia Zhang applauded, clapping her hands.
Qin Huairu said: "These two people are different from the people in the compound. We have to find a way. Tomorrow, you go to that person's house to sit and have fun, and then..."
Before Qin Huairu could finish speaking, Jia Zhang interrupted her: "Don't worry, my old lady is the best at doing this kind of thing."
Qin Huairu also thinks that Jia Zhang is fine.
Lao Jia died early. After so many years, Jia Zhang relied on his own wisdom to pull Jia Xudong up. If you don’t have any ability, how can you do it?
.....
The next day.
Wang Weidong and Guan Tingting had breakfast and prepared to go to Beijing University to visit some professors.
As soon as he reached the door, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"Comrade, comrade, is there anyone in the house?"
This old voice was very familiar. Wang Weidong opened the door and saw Mrs. Jia Zhang standing outside the door with a basket with a pair of shoe mats in the basket.
When Jia Zhang saw Wang Weidong, she looked him up and down, and her eyes instantly fell on the shiny watch on Wang Weidong's wrist.
Be a good boy, there are foreign characters on the watch.
She swallowed and said timidly: "Comrade, I am Jia Zhang from the courtyard next door to you. Yesterday, my daughter-in-law came home and told me that you had moved here. According to the rules of our courtyard, I have to give you something. Of course, you also have to send me something, so that we can show that we are more united. This is also what the above is now advocating."
What? Send things to each other?
Wang Weidong stared at the almost starched shoe mat in the basket and frowned slightly.
If it was someone he didn't know, out of politeness, he would have warmly let him into the room at this time.
But who is the other party?
Jia Zhang!
The Jia Zhang family is known as the necromancer.
Mrs. Jia Zhang has never been generous in her life. Even if she doesn't take advantage of you, how can you still take advantage of her?
I really think too much.
Wang Weidong glanced at an old bowl at the door and had an idea.
He smiled and said to Jia Zhang: "Old Mrs. Jia, look, you are so enthusiastic, which makes me feel really embarrassed. However, our family does not lack shoe mats, so you should take your shoe mats home." , wear it yourself."
Mrs. Jia Zhang was overjoyed when she heard this. Although the insoles were not valuable, it would take her two months to get each insole.
Don't be just right, you can still keep a stupid pillar.
At least two pounds of meat can be exchanged!
"What about your return gift?" Jia Zhang stared at Wang Weidong expectantly.
"Uh, yes..." Wang Weidong slapped his forehead suddenly and said, "I almost forgot."
He bent down and took out the broken bowl from behind the door, handed it to Jia Zhang, and said: "We have just moved here, we haven't had time to buy anything, and there is nothing in the house, so just take this bowl back!"
The bowl was the kind of coarse-glazed white porcelain bowl sold in supply and marketing cooperatives. There were a few cracks on the edge, and it was also dirty. There were vague food residues on it. It should have been used by the previous owner to feed the dog.
Jia Zhang looked at the white porcelain bowl and was stunned in the spring breeze.
The promised rich man!
They are all good neighbors. Even if they don't take off the watch from their wrists, they should at least give her four or five pounds of meat.
What's the deal with a broken bowl? Are you sending a beggar away?
Mrs. Jia Zhang felt the anger inside her rising slowly, and her face turned red visibly.
However, before she could break out her fighting power, Wang Weidong threw the bowl into her basket.
"Oh, it's just a bowl. Don't be embarrassed, aunt. Take the bowl home quickly. I have to go back to the house to change clothes. Goodbye!"
As he spoke, Wang Weidong closed the door directly, and even one more look at Jia Zhang made him feel sick.
Jia Zhang looked at the broken bowl in the basket, turned her head and thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.
This family acted so unconventionally that they really regarded her as a beggar.
Ever since she entered the courtyard, Mrs. Jia Zhang has traveled all over the world without seeing anyone. Even dogs had to run away with their tails between their legs when they encountered her. How had she ever been so angry?
She threw the basket on the ground and banged on the door with her fist.
"Boy surnamed Wang, are you polite? Ah, old lady, I regard you as a good neighbor, but you actually regard me as a beggar, so you just sent me away with a broken bowl! If you don't come out to apologize to me today, I will compensate you by the way. I only earn ten or eight dollars, so our matter is not over yet."
Seeing the door being beaten so hard that dust was flying down from the door panel, Guan Tingting was a little scared. She rushed out and grabbed Wang Weidong's clothes and said, "Brother Hong Chang, why don't we give her something and treat her as a human being?" Just send the beggar away."
"Something? You underestimated that old woman just now. She came today with shoe mats, obviously just to collect wool. If we give in now, there will definitely be no end to it in the future." Wang Weidong patted Guan Tingting On his shoulder, he whispered: "Don't be afraid, I will deal with her now."
Wang Weidong walked to the corner of the door and picked up a wooden stick that was as thick as an arm.
Opening the door, without saying a word, he swung the stick and hit Mr. Jia and Zhang.
Jia Zhang didn't expect Wang Weidong to open the door. The people she scolded in the past were all hiding in the house and acting like cowards.
She never expected that Wang Weidong would do something to her. She had been running around in the courtyard for so many years, and no one had ever done this before.
Without warning, I received a heavy stick on my shoulder.
"Oh my God! I killed someone!" In pain, Jia Zhang burst out with agility that was incompatible with her age. She didn't even need to carry the basket and ran away in a flash.
Wang Weidong scratched his head speechlessly: "This old woman must have run too fast."
However, because of what happened with Jia Zhang, Wang Weidong was not in the mood to go to Capital University.
Because he knew that Jia Zhang would definitely come to take revenge.
He asked Guan Tingting to make a pot of good tea, then moved the table to the small courtyard, where she sipped tea and admired the flowers in the flower pond.
Life is so beautiful when you have a beautiful woman by your side.
....
Just as Wang Weidong expected, Jia Zhang was beaten and ran all the way home, only to find that Wang Weidong was not chasing her.
She breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Weidong's expression just now was so scary, as if he was ready to kill her.
My spirit gradually relaxed, and the pain in my shoulder became more and more intense.
Jia Zhang opened her clothes and saw a bright red patch on her shoulders, with a little blood oozing out from some places.
"My mother-in-law, Wang Weidong, the man who killed a thousand swordsmen, was too cruel."
Inside the house, Qin Huairu, who was helping Bang Gang sew clothes, heard the noise and came out. When she saw Jia Zhang's miserable condition, she suddenly took a breath.
"You, you accidentally fell while walking? What a coincidence."
"Whoever falls will hit his shoulder. He was beaten by Wang Weidong."
"Wang Weidong? That new neighbor?"
"If it's not him, it could be someone else."
"No, that man looks so polite, how could he do such a heavy hand."
"You mean, old lady, I lied?"
"Mom, that's not what I meant. If Wang Weidong really hit you, we would be justified!" Qin Huairu's eyes gradually lit up.
After hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang also slapped her thigh excitedly: "Yes, my old lady was beaten, and he has to pay three to four hundred yuan. No, I have to go find him."
Thinking of being able to extort money, Mrs. Jia Zhang couldn't sit still. She put on her cotton-padded jacket and rushed out of the house.
But Qin Huairu pulled her back: "Mom, how can you go alone? We need to find more people. You are from the Siheyuan, and now you are being bullied by people outside. The Siheyuan is not allowed to regain its place? Let's put a The uncle, the second uncle, the third uncle, Shazhu, and Xu Damao all called on them to make trouble with Wang Weidong, so that he would lose money if he got scared."
"Yes, yes, Huairu, you are really getting smarter now!"
....
Qin Huairu came to Yi Zhonghai's house excitedly. Yi Zhonghai was worried about the deaf old lady.
The deaf old lady's health is getting worse and worse, and she has been admitted to the hospital twice in the past six months.
This time he was lying in the hospital, his whole body was as thin as a branch, his breathing was getting less and less, and his consciousness had begun to deteriorate.
Yi Zhonghai, as the person designated by the street office to take care of the deaf old lady, has been called by the doctor for a talk.
The doctor told Yi Zhonghai in a vague way that the deaf old lady would definitely not be able to survive this time, and it was probably only in the past few days.
Yi Zhonghai had taken care of the deaf old lady for so many years and had certain feelings for the deaf old lady. He should have been sad when he heard the news.
However, there is one more important thing that needs him to do.
That is the legacy of the deaf old lady.
The deaf old lady was a householder with five guarantees, had no family, and had no heirs.
She gets a monthly subsidy from the street office, so she has no money to spend on weekdays.
Over the years, a considerable amount of money has been saved.
Yi Zhonghai once asked the deaf old lady, but the old lady ignored her.
Also, the deaf old lady has a room in the yard.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the deaf old lady originally planned to give these inheritances to Silly Zhu.
As a result, the deaf old lady suddenly suffered a stroke in the middle of the night. After the stroke, she could not move her whole body and could not even speak.
Not even a single word was left behind.
This gave Yi Zhonghai room to operate.
As soon as Yi Zhonghai got old, he was about to be half buried in the earth. In fact, he was not coveting the little money, but just to let Sha Zhu support him in his old age.
Once Silly Zhu gets the inheritance from the deaf old lady, he may not listen to Yi Zhonghai anymore in the courtyard.
Although Yi Zhonghai knew that according to Silly Zhu's character, the chance of this happening was very low.
But since it was related to Yi Zhonghai's pension plan, he had to be cautious.
But how to get the inheritance of the deaf old lady?
If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely use some tricks to seize the inheritance on the pretext of taking care of the deaf old lady for so many years.
Since there are deep connections in both the neighborhood office and the steel rolling mill, this approach is likely to succeed.
but.
Yi Zhonghai is a man who values honor. If someone accuses him of trying to seize other people's property, how can he have the dignity to be the master of the courtyard in the future?
Sad, so sad!
Wanting the deaf old lady's inheritance, but also wanting face, this made Yi Zhonghai very worried.
For two days in a row, I no longer felt like eating eggs in the morning.
Finally, the aunt saw the clues and gave him an idea.
Since the deaf old lady can no longer move, why not forge a will?
As long as you take the will to the hospital and secretly put your fingerprints on it with the deaf old lady's finger, the fake will will become the real one.
In addition, over the years, Yi Zhonghai has done a good job in taking care of the deaf old lady, who would dare to make irresponsible remarks behind her back.
