Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

Chapter 13 The deaf old lady persuades Yi Zhonghai to adopt a child

After leaving Yi Zhonghai's house, Jia Dongxu rushed to the street office without stopping. Jia Dongxu was lucky, as soon as he arrived at the door of the street office, Wang Xia just came out of the street office.

"Director Wang!" Jia Dongxu called Wang Xia. Wang Xia stopped, looked at Jia Dongxu, and asked, "Who are you? What do you want from me?!"

Jia Dongxu said: "Director Wang, I live in Courtyard 95. I am Jia Dongxu, the son of Jia Zhang." Then Jia Dongxu didn't care about his face and directly stated his purpose.

Wang Xia thought about it and said, "Okay! I'll go with you."

"Hey! Thank you Director Wang!" Jia Dongxu echoed and followed Wang Xia towards the courtyard.

More than ten minutes later, Wang Xia followed Jia Dongxu to the courtyard. As soon as she entered the middle courtyard, Wang Xia shouted to He Yuzhu's house, "Zhuzi!"

"Hey!" He Yuzhu heard the call, answered, ran out of the house, and asked, "Auntie Wang, what do you want to talk to me about?!"

Wang Xia said: "Jia Dongxu came to me and said he wanted to compensate you."

He Yuzhu said, "Auntie Wang, if anyone else had come to lobby, I would have never given in. Now that you, Auntie Wang, are here, I can't help but give you face. You can see that the window has been repaired. I asked Old Hu at the end of the alley to get the window frame and glass. You can ask him how much it costs. He can't lie about it. I won't ask for too much either. Let him pay me ten dollars for the broken things in the house."

Wang Xia thought about it and nodded, "Ten dollars is not a lot." After that, Wang Xia looked at Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu quickly took out ten yuan and handed it to He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu took the money and asked, "Anything else?" Seeing Jia Dongxu shaking his head, He Yuzhu looked at Wang Xia and said, "Auntie Wang, it's getting late. How about having lunch at my house?"

Wang Xia replied: "Your uncle is still waiting for me at home! I won't eat here!"

"Hey! Aunt Wang, take care! Just call me if you need anything in the future!" After saying that, He Yuzhu watched Wang Xia leave the central courtyard, glanced at Jia Dongxu out of the corner of his eye, and turned around to go home.

"Brother, will Jia Zhang be back soon?!" He Yushui asked as soon as He Yuzhu entered the door.

He Yuzhu picked up the thermos and answered, "Is that so easy?! Jia Zhang was committing burglary. She will not be able to get out unless she spends a few years in jail."

He Yushui shouted excitedly: "Great! It's better to keep her locked up in there and not let her out." Then He Yushui told He Yuzhu again: "Brother, you don't know. She kept saying that I was a money-loser. She said that you would end your family. She also said that it was because of us that we killed our mother and scared our father away."

He Yuzhu said: "Yushui, she has a mouth. She can say whatever she wants. We just need to ignore her."

"Oh!" He Yushui responded and asked, "Brother, can you take me to the movies?!"

"Okay! I'll take you to see it after dinner." He Yuzhu readily agreed. In fact, even if He Yushui didn't say it, He Yuzhu wanted to take He Yushui out for a stroll in the afternoon. Although there are a lot of things in He Yuzhu's supermarket space. But many things have no clear way, and if you use them rashly, there will be a lot of trouble later. It's better to find time to go to the black market, sell these things, and exchange them for something else.

On the other hand, when He Yuzhu was busy making lunch, Yi Zhonghai took the food through the Chaoshou corridor and came to the door of the deaf old lady in the backyard. Yi Zhonghai pushed the door open and walked in as if he was going back to his own home, putting the plates and bowls on the table and said, "Old lady, it's time to eat!"

The deaf old lady walked to the table, took a look at the food on the table, and asked, "Zhong Hai, are you okay?!"

Yi Zhonghai sighed and replied, "Nothing else. I'm no longer the steward."

The deaf old lady said, "Zhong Hai, I have reminded you many times. Jia Zhangshi can't be spoiled forever. You didn't believe it, but now you should believe it, right?!"

Yi Zhonghai said, "Madam, it has already happened. There is nothing to say. Madam, I know you have some connections. Can you come forward and plead for Jia Zhang and ask them to release her?!"

The deaf old lady sneered in her heart, but her face still maintained the same expression, and said: "Zhonghai, they say that people forget about you when you are gone. When you were the manager, I had already used a lot of favors. If you were in trouble, I would beg you for help, which is understandable. Jia Zhang and I are not related, and you know her better than me. It's not worth using favors on her."

Yi Zhonghai said: "Old lady, I am counting on Dongxu to take care of me in my old age."

The deaf old lady said, "If you want Dongxu to take care of you in your old age, then Jia Zhangshi must not stay. What kind of person is Jia Zhangshi? Do you think she will let Dongxu take care of you in your old age?! In addition, as far as I know, Jia Zhangshi's imprisonment is equivalent to having a stain on her. This will have a great impact on Jia Dongxu's future. If I were you, while I am still young, I would adopt a child without a father or a mother and educate him from an early age, which is always better than relying on others."

Yi Zhonghai said, "I have thought about adopting a child. But you also know about the situation of the Du family next door."

The deaf old lady said, "You can't blame anyone else for this. If you want to blame someone, blame Du Quezi himself. He was adopted from his hometown. The child's parents are still alive. Moreover, Du Quezi and Liu Haizhong are on par with each other. Liu Haizhong beats his son for no reason, while Du Quezi beats the child when he's drunk. People are emotional. The more you beat, the less emotional you feel. And now the child's biological parents are here to find him. How can the child not leave?!"

Yi Zhonghai thought about it carefully and felt that it was true. After hesitating for a few seconds, Yi Zhonghai said, "Let me think about this carefully. You eat first! When you are done, put it aside and wait for Guixiang to come back and get it."

"Hmm!" the deaf old lady responded, and after Yi Zhonghai left, she picked up the chopsticks, picked up a bite of food and put it into her mouth, and a strong aroma of chicken soup hit her nostrils. When the deaf old lady smelled the aroma of chicken soup, she instantly felt that the food in front of her was not fragrant.

Yi Zhonghai, who had walked to the door, also smelled the chicken soup. Yi Zhonghai frowned slightly and followed the aroma to the door of He Yuzhu's house. Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a few seconds and reached out to push the door. Finding that the door could not be pushed open, Yi Zhonghai's face changed instantly. Yi Zhonghai knocked on the door and called out, "He Yuzhu!"

He Yuzhu heard the shouting and said to He Yushui, "Yushui, you keep an eye on the stove. I'll go out and take a look."

"Hey!" He Yushui responded, pulled over a small stool and sat down next to the stove.

He Yuzhu ran to the door, opened it, saw Yi Zhonghai, and asked, "What's the matter?!"

Yi Zhonghai said with a stern face, "Zhu Zi, you are really getting more and more outrageous! You made delicious food but didn't even bother to bring some to the old lady."

He Yuzhu asked: "Are you okay in the head?!"

Yi Zhonghai's expression changed slightly and he asked, "What do you mean?!"

He Yuzhu said: "If you are sick, you should get treatment early. Don't delay. I have no relationship with you, why should I serve the delicious food to her?! This is really weird?! What the hell?!" After saying that, He Yuzhu closed the door directly.
