Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

Chapter 238: The whole institute meeting, Yi and Jia break completely (3)

"Uncle Yi, you didn't say it directly, but everyone knows what you mean. Ask the people in the hospital. Who doesn't know what you are thinking?" Qin Huairu said.

"Oh, is that so? Have I ever shown it? Sorry, maybe you misunderstood. I have never thought of asking Jia Dongxu to take care of me in my old age. Looking at Jia Dongxu's previous behavior, do you think I'm stupid? Want to ask him to take care of me in my old age? I only help him because of the relationship between me and Lao Jia in the past. How about you find a neighbor to ask him how he knew I had that intention?" Yi Zhonghai said. He knew that no one in the courtyard would help the Jia family at all.

Qin Huairu also knew that it was impossible for the people in the courtyard to help their family. "Uncle Yi, you know whether you have this idea or not. Why do you have to say it like this?"

"Widow Qin, let me say it again, I have never thought of asking Jia Dongxu to take care of me in my old age. With the way Jia Zhang is, do you think she will let Jia Dongxu take care of me in my old age? Also, I paid for all Jia Dongxu's affairs after his death. If I had that idea, I would not pay for Jia Dongxu's funeral after his death." Yi Zhonghai said.

"Uncle Yi, the reason you helped with Dongxu's funeral was because you wanted Banggeng to take care of you in your old age." Qin Huairu said.

"Hahaha, Widow Qin, you are so talkative. Am I, Yi Zhonghai, that stupid? Am I stupid enough to ask a thief to support me in my old age? You should see if he can support himself before you talk like that! It's really ridiculous." Yi Zhonghai sneered.

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's ridicule, Qin Huairu cried, "Uncle Yi, why are you like this now? You were not like this before, wuwuwu..."

"Widow Qin, why would I be like this? It's because of you, the Jia family, who forced me to do this. On one hand, you accepted my help, and on the other hand, you scolded me as a person who is prone to extinction. You said that there is no good person in your family. Okay, I won't say more. I don't want much money. Just the IOUs. Minus the money to compensate Jia Zhang, you should give me the rest. Otherwise, I will call the police to ask for it. There is always reason in this world." Yi Zhonghai said.

Hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Jia Zhang was furious. She didn't get the money, but she had to pay it back. How could this be? So she said angrily, "Yi Juehu, you are a black-hearted Juehu. I curse you to die a miserable death. Hey, Dongxu! Old Jia! Come down and take a look. Take this black-hearted Juehu away!"

As she spoke, Jia Zhang sat on the ground and started screaming.

"Hahaha..." The neighbors all burst into laughter. They really liked watching this kind of thing.

"Old Liu, do you want to do something about it? What time is it now? Jia Zhang is not only cursing people, but also promoting feudal superstition. If you don't do anything, I will go to the street office to sue her." Yi Zhonghai said lightly.

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Jia Zhang immediately stopped talking. She knew how miserable those who were being criticized were.

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Liu Haizhong also had a look of ashamed. To be honest, today's matter was beyond his ability, so he looked at Li Kangri and said, "Chief Li, you are the chief of our security department, how do you think we should deal with this matter?"

Li Kangri, who was eating melons at the side, didn't expect Liu Haizhong to ask him about it. He was stunned at first, then smiled and said, "Lao Liu, this matter actually has nothing to do with us. If you really want me to speak, then I have to ask you."

"What do you want to ask?" Liu Haizhong said.

"Did you hear Yi Zhonghai say in person that he wanted Jia Dongxu to take care of him in his old age? Or are you just guessing?" Li Kangri asked with a smile.

"This... I've never heard of it. It's all speculation."

"Isn't that right? Besides, they have an IOU, so they will be right even if you take you to court. So there is no need to argue about it here. If you want money, just call the police." Li Kangri said calmly.

"That's right, this is not something I can control," Liu Haizhong said, "Yi Zhonghai, if you want money, you should call the police!"

Seeing that things were developing in a direction that was not favorable to her family, Qin Huairu became anxious. She also realized that Liu Haizhong just wanted to flatter Li Kangri, so she cried, "Brother Li, wuwuwu, I know there is a conflict between your family and me, but Banggeng has been in power for five years, please let us, an orphan and a widow, go..."

"Stop, Widow Qin, don't talk about these things. I'm just expressing my personal opinion. Also, I'm reminding you for the last time, don't call me Brother Li. Just call Li Kangri if you have something to say. No, there will never be anything between me and your family, so don't talk to me in the future." Li Kangri reminded. He just wanted to read some gossip, but didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the courtyard.

"Yes, Widow Qin, stop thinking about being someone's sister all the time. I've called you Sister Qin for several years, and it almost ended up with my family being wiped out." Sha Zhu also echoed.

“Hahahaha…” Hearing Sha Zhu’s self-deprecation, the neighbors started laughing again.

Hearing the words of Li Kangri and his apprentice and everyone's laughter, Qin Huairu cried aggrievedly, "Wuwuwu..."

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai was very happy, but he knew that it was impossible to ask the Jia family for money. He just didn't want to give them the money, so he said, "Old Liu, Chief Li is right. I will go to the street office to ask what to do with the money some other day. But I won't give the money to her family today. I can't say that they owe me money and ask me to pay them, don't you think?"

"Of course. I don't care about your business. I'm just meddling in other people's business." Liu Haizhong said.

"Old Liu, I have one more thing. Since everyone is here today, I would like to talk to you all about it. Do you think it's okay?" Yi Zhonghai obediently asked for Liu Haizhong's opinion.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai's respectful attitude, Liu Haizhong was very satisfied, so he said, "Tell me what's the matter!"

"Okay, what I want to say today is that my Yi family will no longer have any dealings with the Jia family in the future. We can't afford to offend such neighbors. You all know how good I, Yi Zhonghai, was to the Jia family before. I gave them food when they had no food and lent them money when they had no money. But what did I get in return? Was it Jia Zhang who kept calling the Yi family a lost family?" Yi Zhonghai said angrily.

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, everyone agreed with it and nodded in agreement. Yi Zhonghai had treated the Jia family very well before, and everyone had seen it.

"You talk as if my family really wants to have contact with your family. I don't even want to have contact with your family. If you weren't following my Dongxu around, who would bother with you?" Jia Zhang shouted.

"Okay, since you said so, I know your family won't give me the money you owe me, but I'm not in a hurry, we can slowly settle it later." Yi Zhonghai said, "Fengjuan, Zhien, let's go home."

In this way, Yi Zhonghai took his wife and children back home.

Seeing that there was no more show to watch, everyone went home.
