Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

Yi Zhonghai took two deep breaths, ignored the two of them, and walked towards the backyard again, probably to call for help.

"Dongfang, let's go and take a look. I don't think there is anyone to help in the front yard." Sha Zhu winked at Li Dongfang quietly.

Li Dongfang thought about it and decided that since he was free at the moment, it might as well be a good idea to go and see what the fun was going on.

Sure enough, there were quite a few people in the front yard, but they were all standing there in groups of three or five chatting, and no one was working.

When they saw Li Dongfang coming, they came up to congratulate him again. After all, the news that Li Dongfang was about to be promoted was already known to the whole hospital.

Li Dongfang also took out cigarettes and passed them around to the men, and gave some candies to the children and women. Now everyone became more enthusiastic and said very nice things, which made Li Dongfang blush.

The atmosphere was very harmonious for a while, but at this moment, Jia Zhang came out of the house picking her teeth. Seeing so many people standing here chatting, she was unhappy and shouted, "You are idle chatting, but you don't know how to help us orphans and widows build the mourning shed. Do you have any love at all?!"

"That's right. If you don't help our family, my grandma will scold you to death!" Banggeng followed Jia Zhang, picking his teeth.

When Jia Zhang heard Bang Geng's words, she felt very satisfied and praised him, "My good grandson is sensible, unlike these tactless people who have no sense of life at all."

Li Dongfang was shocked by these words. It turned out that people could be so shameless. They asked others for help with their own family affairs and could be so arrogant. This was something he had never seen before.

Li Dongfang was too lazy to pay attention to Jia Zhangshi, but the others in the courtyard were not lenient with her and directly said, "Jia Zhangshi, what's your attitude? You asked us for help without paying a penny, but is what you said a human language?"

"Yes, yes."

"As you are, we won't help your family anymore. Is that right?"

"Me too!"

Everyone was talking at once about Jia Zhangshi, who was also a little confused. She couldn't understand why it seemed that what the old man Yi Zhonghai said was not working today. Just now, Yi Zhonghai asked them for help and they all agreed.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Yi Zhonghai brought Liu Haizhong's family and the neighbors in the backyard over.

"Uncle, we don't care about the Jia family's affairs anymore!"

"Ms. Jia Zhang's words are too harsh to listen to."

The neighbors told the story all at once, and now not only the people in the front yard, but even the people in the middle yard and the back yard who had just arrived were unhappy. It seemed that we came to help your Jia family, but we still had to look at your old woman's mood. How despicable am I?

"Everyone listen to me and be quiet." Yi Zhonghai quickly spoke to calm everyone.

"Everyone, don't bother with Jia Zhang. She just speaks that way and has no bad intentions. Our compound is a civilized compound and we help each other..." Yi Zhonghai gave another spiritual speech.

But this time he obviously miscalculated. Jia Zhang's attitude towards Zhao Juan in the afternoon and the tone of her speech just now completely disappointed everyone in the courtyard. Even the most simple-minded person is not without temper.

Someone shouted, "Anyone who wants to help can help. I won't help. It's so comfortable to go home and lie down." As a result, everyone in the yard turned around and went home.

Jia Zhang was immediately annoyed and yelled, "You son-bearing bastards, why don't you help our family? Come back here, come back!"

Yi Zhonghai covered his face, completely speechless to Jia Zhangshi. "With this shout, you have offended everyone completely. I still want to do some work, but it's useless!"

In the blink of an eye, only the three old men's families were left. Li Dongfang and Sha Zhu did not leave. The show was so exciting that Li Dongfang planned to watch it to the end before leaving.

It is a rare scene to see three old men taking the lead in the work, but it is a pity for the brothers from the Liu and Yan families who can only follow suit and work hard.

It wasn’t a big job to set up a mourning tent. A few people finished it in half an hour, but it was almost 9 o’clock when they were done.

Banggeng was dressed in mourning clothes by Jia Zhangshi, and he knelt on the ground and began to cry, "Dad, my dad, you died so tragically, you can't have a meal, slurp, grandma said your meal was delicious, with big fat meat, you are so pitiful that you can't have a meal..."

The gene of Banggeng eating banquets is deeply rooted in his bones, and this shout made Li Dongfang laugh directly.

Li Dongfang said that he would not laugh easily unless he could not help himself.

Anyway, there are not many programs in the evening these days, so Li Dongfang just stands here and watches the comedy and crying, which is not much worse than crosstalk.

Zhao Juan definitely couldn't come to the hospital for the time being, so Xiaodang also knelt beside Banggeng, but there was not much sadness on his little face, but more fear.

The three uncles took the lead in giving the sacrifice, commonly known as bodhi money, funeral money or funeral money.

Then, the whole hospital was left to watch the fun, and no one else was willing to pay, and everyone pretended not to know.

Just when the atmosphere was extremely awkward, Xu Damao was released. Jia Dongxu's death did not have much to do with him, but he was responsible for inducing Jia Dongxu's death. The joint defense team released him and asked him to reconcile with the Jia family, which in other words was appropriate compensation.

After Xu Damao came back, he hid directly in his own home. He said a few words to the joint defense personnel and the old man in the courtyard, and then went back.

The three uncles decided that Yi Zhonghai would have to step forward to resolve the matter. After all, this old guy was good at this kind of thing, and his talking skills were better than those of the live-streaming hosts of later generations.

No one knew what Yi Zhonghai said to Xu Damao, but Xu Damao came over quickly and gave two dollars to express his condolences to Jia Dongxu.

Yi Zhonghai also came over and said to Jia Zhang, who was threatening the neighbors one by one with her eyes: "Sister-in-law of the Jia family, look at Dongxu, he is like this, and this matter really has nothing to do with Damao. How about you two families shake hands and reconcile?"

Jia Zhang's eyes suddenly turned when she heard this. She was familiar with this matter, so she said directly to Xu Damao: "Pay the money, and it will be considered a settlement if you pay the money."

Xu Damao was locked up for almost a day and a night and was exhausted physically and mentally. He didn't want to argue with Jia Zhang any more, so he asked directly, "How much is it? I don't have any more."

Yi Zhonghai also chimed in, "We are all from the same courtyard. We will meet each other sooner or later. Just give me ten or eight yuan as a token of your appreciation."

When Jia Zhang heard this, she thought, this is such a big deal, her son's life is at stake, ten or eight dollars? You must be kidding.

"Two... at least two thousand, not a cent less!"

"You...you are crazy about money. Ten dollars at most, take it or not." Xu Damao got angry immediately when he saw Jia Zhang's exorbitant request.

Yi Zhonghai was also shocked by Jia Zhang's greed and said, "Sister-in-law, you are not sincere. Two thousand yuan can buy our whole yard. If you want to do this, there is really no room for negotiation."
