Seeing that Auntie was about to faint, Yi Zhonghai rushed over quickly, reached out to support Auntie, and helped her sit on the chair next to her.
The aunt held Yi Zhonghai's hand and cried loudly: "Old Yi, now even the only supporter for the elderly is gone, how are we going to live in the future!"
Yi Zhonghai remained silent, unable to answer this question. His aunt hit him on the chest and cried loudly: "You old thing, all this is your fault. If you hadn't had so many credits, we would have adopted him." One child, now that child has grown up and is old enough to support us!"
Thinking of this, the aunt felt so regretful that her intestines almost turned green.
More than ten years ago, when Yi Zhonghai learned that his eldest mother was infertile, he was faced with two choices. The first was to adopt a child in an orphanage.
At that time, it had just been liberated. After a military disaster, all life was devastated. Even the capital had many homeless orphans. Yi Zhonghai was a formal worker in the steel rolling mill, and he was considered a person of status. As long as he was willing to adopt him, he could definitely adopt him. Adopt a beautiful and smart boy.
The second is to choose a fatherless apprentice in the steel rolling mill and accept him as a godson.
Yi Zhonghai is a senior worker in the steel rolling mill. As long as he is willing, there will definitely be many workers willing to be his godson.
However, Yi Zhonghai did not choose either option.
Because he is an extremely selfish person.
Whether it is raising a child or taking on an apprentice in a steel rolling mill, it takes a lot of money and energy.
Yi Zhonghai just wanted to be someone else's father, but didn't want to pay, so he didn't choose either option. Instead, he chose Jia Dongxu as his caregiver in the courtyard.
At that time, Jia Dongxu's father had just died and he only had one wife, Jia Zhang.
The old woman Jia Zhang took painkillers all day long. Yi Zhonghai felt that her body could not survive for long. As long as Jia Zhang died, Jia Dongxu would become Yi Zhonghai's son.
In this way, he can find a high-quality elderly care provider without spending a penny or a little energy, so he will protect Jia Dongxu many times in the courtyard.
Who would have thought that Jia Dongxu had an accident while working and walked in front of Jia Zhang.
After Jia Dongxu's death, Yi Zhonghai continued to look for an old man, and this time he set his sights on Shazhu.
Sha Zhu was already close to adulthood at the time, and had learned good cooking skills from his father He Daqing. As long as He Daqing was forced to leave, Sha Zhu could obediently become a pensioner.
Yi Zhonghai relied on careful planning to become Si Zhu's father.
Just when he was about to become Yi Zhonghai's pensioner, an accident happened.
Silly Zhu actually saw through Yi Zhonghai's conspiracy.
At this time, Yi Zhonghai remembered a sentence: "I am trapping myself in a cocoon, I am trapping myself in a cocoon!"
If he were younger, Yi Zhonghai might choose another elderly person from among the residents of the courtyard.
However, he is now nearly sixty years old, and the residents in the courtyard have long seen through his true colors and will no longer believe in him.
Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai felt his head buzzing and slumped down on his chair.
....
The other side.
Silly Zhu has arrived at the Siheyuan Police Station.
At this time, the small police officer had just returned from a mission and stopped immediately when he saw Silly Zhu's figure.
A comrade named Zhang next to him asked curiously: "Little police officer, isn't that your brother-in-law? Why don't you go say hello."
Another comrade surnamed Wang interjected: "You just came to our area and you don't understand the situation at all. That man is the brother of the wife of the small policeman. This is not wrong, but his name is Shazhu. He does not do his job all day long. He just works on fences. He only squatted twice, and our little police officer has no contact with him for a long time."
Comrade Zhang frowned and looked at the police officer: "Brother, this kind of person is really not worth dealing with, but you have to understand that even if you hate him, he is still related to you. What if he wants to do something? Things will still involve you, so it’s better for you to figure out what he wants to do as soon as possible.”
After hearing this, the police officer thought about it carefully and realized that this was indeed the case.
After all, even if he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that Silly Zhu was He Yuyu's brother. The leaders at the police station knew about their relationship.
The police officer took a deep breath, walked slowly past the police station, and called out to Si Zhu: "Si Zhu, what did you come to the police station for? If you want to cause trouble, you can leave right now."
When Silly Zhu heard this, his face suddenly darkened.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep drag.
When he was a cook, Sha Zhu never smoked due to professional requirements. However, since entering the fence, Sha Zhu has given up treatment. Whether it is smoking or drinking, he has become very violent.
It was the first time that the police officer saw him smoking, and his brows wrinkled slightly.
But before he could speak, Shazhu got angry: "Little policeman, no matter how you think of me, I am always He Yuyu's brother and your child's uncle. When you see me, should you address me with respect?" A brother-in-law?
Is this how the leaders at your police station taught you? "
The little policeman was so reprimanded that he couldn't even raise his head, but he had no way to refute. After all, Silly Zhu's words were not wrong.
In addition, if Silly Zhu makes trouble here, he will definitely be criticized if the leader sees it.
After years of hard work, the junior police officer has reached the standard for promotion to deputy captain. If he is criticized at this time, it will definitely affect his future promotion.
A small impatience messes up a big plan!
He took a deep breath and said, "Brother, what are you doing here?"
His attitude was very gentle and his tone was very respectful, which made Silly Zhu very satisfied.
He held a cigarette in his mouth and blew out a puff of smoke into the policeman's face.
"Silly Zhu, don't go too far!" the little policeman said through gritted teeth.
Silly Zhu gently patted the young police officer on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, don't be afraid. I'm not here to trouble you this time, nor am I here to cause trouble."
"Then what are you here for? You're not here to travel, are you?"
Silly Zhu's words confused the policeman. This was a police station, not a playground. People like Silly Zhu who had been squatting in the fence for several years would not come to the police station for no reason.
Silly Zhu stopped teasing the little policeman now and said with a smile: "I have decided to sever ties with Yi Zhonghai. From now on, my surname is no longer Yi but He. When I come here this time, I go to the household registration department. Change the information."
Hearing this, the police officer couldn't help but widen his eyes: "You, you just said that you want to sever ties with Yi Zhonghai?"
"Of course! That old guy Yi Zhonghai is a cunning person. I have been deceived by him all these years. From now on, I, He Yuzhu, will be an upright person for once." Shazhu puffed up his chest and said proudly.
Although the little policeman didn't know whether Sha Zhu really wanted to change his ways, he was still happy that he was able to break away from Yi Zhonghai in time.
In the opinion of the police officer, the reason why Si Zhu has repeatedly committed stupid things over the years is because Yi Zhonghai was behind it.
"Okay, okay, brother, it's great that you can figure it out. He Yuyu will also be happy for you after he finds out."
The police officer said excitedly: "Let's go, I have an acquaintance in the household registration department, and I will take you to go through the procedures now."
Generally speaking, changing your name or changing your household registration page requires a complicated set of procedures, which often take several days to complete.
However, it’s easy to get things done with acquaintances.
Xiaopian policeman has worked in the police station for more than ten years and is already very familiar with the comrades in the household registration department. With his help, the comrades in the household registration department quickly completed the procedures for Shazhu.
Although they still felt that this thing was so wonderful after Silly Zhu left.
A man first lost his surname and became someone else's son, and then suddenly changed back and stopped being someone else's son and changed back to his own surname.
There are such shameless people in this world.
The little policeman also heard the laughter coming from behind. He was afraid that Sha Zhu would be discouraged because of this incident, so he quickly took Sha Zhu’s arm and said: "Brother, don’t listen to them tinkering behind your back. You are on the road now." A straight path.”
After so many years of blows, Silly Zhu has long been accustomed to it. He laughed and suddenly turned his head to look at the police officer: "Brother-in-law, can you lend me twenty yuan?"
"ah!"
The young policeman was almost stunned because of Silly Zhu's sudden change of topic, but when he reacted, he fell into hesitation.
If it was the previous Silly Zhu, he must have rejected Silly Zhu without hesitation now.
But now Silly Pillar has changed for the better...
It's just that twenty yuan is too much. The small police officer's monthly salary is only more than forty yuan now, and Haiyang has two children to support, so life is tight.
"Brother, twenty yuan..."
Silly Zhu interrupted him before he could finish his words: "By the way, little policeman, I still need twenty kilograms of food stamps. As you know, I have fallen out with Yi Zhonghai and I don't even have a place to eat. .”
As he spoke, Shazhu looked up at the policeman and said, "Of course, you don't have to lend it to me. In that case, I can only go to your house for dinner."
Hearing this, the police officer was shocked.
Although he believed that Silly Zhu had changed for the better, he didn't mind that Silly Zhu came to his house for dinner.
But He Yuyu has long lost confidence in Sha Zhu. If Sha Zhu appears at home, He Yuyu doesn't know what will happen.
After thinking about it, the police officer nodded and said, "I can lend you money and meal tickets, but you have to promise one thing, that is, find a job immediately, even a temporary job, and live a life of self-reliance." .”
Faced with this request, Shazhu naturally agreed.
Afterwards, the police officer rummaged through his coat pockets and trouser pockets, but he couldn't get enough twenty yuan. As a last resort, he had to go into the office and borrow money and meal tickets from several colleagues.
After coming out, Shazhu couldn't wait any longer and quickly stretched out his hand: "Give it to me quickly."
The little policeman hesitated for a moment and asked: "Silly Zhu, this is the last time I will lend you money. You must not do this again!"
"understand."
Silly Zhu took the money and ran away quickly.
The young policeman looked at his back and scratched his head helplessly. He always felt that Sha Zhu was deceiving him, but he was willing to believe from the bottom of his heart that Sha Zhu had indeed changed for the better.
.....
After Shazhu left the police station, he went straight to the vegetable market and bought two-grade pork and some vegetables. Although he didn't have meat stamps, he could use food stamps to replace them.
Then he went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two bottles of wine.
With a bottle of wine in one pocket and pork and vegetables in his hand, Silly Zhu was walking on the street, looking like the brightest kid.
When we returned to the courtyard, it was time to get off work, and the residents were returning to the courtyard one after another.
Seeing Silly Zhu like this, the residents felt a little strange, but they were afraid that Silly Zhu would fool around again, so they didn't dare to step forward and ask.
Liu Haizhong saw the wine in Silly Zhu's pocket, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He came up to him and asked with a smile: "Sinzhu, what's the matter? Today your father is finally generous and gives you money to buy meat and wine. .”
When Silly Zhu heard this, he smiled happily: "Second uncle, you are mistaken this time. I bought these things myself!"
"Bought it by yourself?" Liu Haizhong was even more surprised. Since Sha Zhu became a godfather to Yi Zhonghai, all expenses were paid by Yi Zhonghai. Besides, Sha Zhu has no job now and has no money at all.
Seeing more and more people watching, Shazhu felt that it was time.
He turned around to face the residents and said loudly: "Everyone, please pay attention. From today on, Yi Zhonghai and I are completely cut off. From now on, my surname is no longer Yi, and I have changed it back to something else. You can only Call me He Yuzhu!”
As soon as these words came out.
The onlookers all gasped.
"What's going on? Yi Yuzhu has become He Yuzhu now?"
"Good guy, it's only been half a year, and Silly Zhu has changed his last name twice, and he still has no shame."
"Hey, hey, what you said is wrong. Silly Zhu was originally called He Yuzhu. He changed his name to Yi Yuzhu. He was making a mistake."
"Yes, He Daqing is not dead. It is said that he is living well in Baoding, but Silly Zhu wants to worship Yi Zhonghai as his master. That would be a shame."
"Now that Silly Zhu has found his way back, he has stopped making mistakes."
....
Silly Zhu heard this and didn't care.
No matter how these people talked, they could not change his determination to sever ties with Yi Zhonghai.
After Silly Zhu finished speaking, he turned around and entered the yard.
He turned on the coal stove and wanted to start cooking, but the briquettes in the coal stove had long gone out.
Come to think of it, the last time he cooked at home was two months ago.
Silly Zhu hesitated, picked up a piece of briquettes from the cellar, and knocked on the door of Xu Damao's house.
At this time, Xu Damao was having dinner with He Wenhui and Yan Bugui.
Several people felt a little strange when they saw Silly Zhu appearing at the door.
Since Xu Damao sent Silly Zhu to a mental hospital, the relationship between Xu Damao and Silly Zhu has completely broken down.
On weekdays, when they meet, they either fight or quarrel.
Today, Silly Zhu knocked on Xu's door.
"What the hell, you even came to bully me."
Xu Damao was getting ready, but Yan Bugui got there first.
Just kidding, Yan Bugui finally had a big meal, and now he hasn't even had a few sips of wine. Wouldn't it be a pity if he was disturbed by Silly Zhu.
