Yi Zhonghai walked into the room with a serious look on his face and said, "Zhu Zi, you don't know, something big has happened, Jia Dongxu is gone."

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yi Zhonghai calmly and said, "Uncle Yi, if Jia Dongxu is gone, then bury him according to the rules. What does this have to do with me? I can't take care of myself here."

Yi Zhonghai really didn't expect He Yuzhu to be so indifferent. He wanted to take this opportunity to promote the relationship between He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu. As long as He Yuzhu helped the Jia family, Lu Jia might be discouraged and leave, so that He Yuzhu could return to Qin Huairu. So, he continued to persuade: "Zhuzi, we are neighbors living in the same courtyard. We see each other every day. How can you say that? Why don't you go to the hospital to pick up Jia Dongxu? The Jia family is now an orphan and a widow. It's really pitiful."

He Yuzhu frowned and said impatiently, "Uncle Yi, I'm getting married soon. It's unlucky for you to ask me to pick up a dead person at this time. What if it affects my future marriage? I don't want to be unhappy because of this."

Yi Zhonghai still didn't give up and tried to persuade him again: "Zhu Zi, you..."

He Yuzhu interrupted him before he could finish, "Uncle Yi, there are so many people in the courtyard, why do you have to include me? Besides, aren't you and Second Uncle responsible for making the decision on this matter? Why are you looking for me?" As he said that, He Yuzhu pushed Yi Zhonghai out of the door without any hesitation.

Yi Zhonghai staggered after being pushed, and He Yuzhu said immediately: "Uncle Yi, let me say it one last time, the affairs of the Jia family have nothing to do with me. I'm getting married and don't want to get involved in these things." After saying that, he closed the door with a "bang", turned around and lay back on the bed to prepare for sleep.

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that his face turned red. He stood outside the door and wanted to argue a few more words, but there was no movement in the house. He had no choice but to turn around and go to the backyard angrily.

In the end, it was the kind-hearted children of Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui who, seeing how pitiful the Jia family was, helped carry Jia Dongxu's body back.

Jia Zhang looked at her son's body and collapsed to the ground, crying bitterly. She never thought that her son would be gone so suddenly. After a long while, she came to her senses, took Qin Huairu's hand and said, "Qin Huairu, this is an opportunity to make money, don't you think? We have to find a way to get everyone to contribute more money to give Dongxu a good funeral."

Although Qin Huairu felt a little sad, she was more helpless and calculating. She knew that Jia Dongxu had not brought any substantial help to the family when he was alive. Now that it has come to this, she can only take this opportunity to make some money. As for Banggeng going to the countryside, it seems that she can only discuss it with Yi Zhonghai later to see if there is a way to let Banggeng stay in the courtyard. After all, if Banggeng leaves, the family will lose a labor force, and life will be even more difficult in the future. She gritted her teeth secretly, thinking about what to do next to maximize the interests of the Jia family.

Qin Huairu stood beside Jia Dongxu's body, feeling an indescribable irritation in her heart. She looked at the cold body and couldn't help cursing in her heart: "Why didn't you die earlier or later, but died when I needed you the most? You are such a useless waste!" She bit her lower lip tightly, frowned tightly, and her eyes were full of anger and helplessness.

Qin Huairu took a deep breath, turned her head and looked at Jia Zhang who was crying bitterly, and said, "Mom, I think we should find Uncle Yi about this matter and listen to his advice to see what to do next."

Jia Zhang's face was covered with tears. She raised her head, glanced at Qin Huairu, moved her lips, but didn't say anything. She knew that now that Jia Dongxu was gone, the family would depend on Qin Huairu to earn money to support them. If she offended Qin Huairu now, with her aggressive temper, she might do something outrageous.

Thinking back, Jia Zhang originally wanted to take advantage of Jia Dongxu's death to give Qin Huairu a warning so that she would be more obedient in the future. But when she thought of what happened before, her heart couldn't help but be nervous. Qin Huairu had dared to poison Jia Dongxu with rat poison. Although nothing serious happened in the end, this incident had always been like a thorn in Jia Zhang's heart. She secretly wondered, if she pushed Qin Huairu too far, would this cruel woman also poison herself with rat poison?

Jia Zhang knew that she was in a weak position and had to be honest and wait until she caught Qin Huairu's handle. Especially when she thought that Banggeng was going to the countryside soon, the family couldn't do without Qin Huairu. So, she nodded and said, "Okay, we really have to listen to Yi Zhonghai on this matter. He has many ideas and he will definitely come up with a solution."

Qin Huairu saw that Jia Zhang agreed, and she turned around and walked out without saying anything. Her first thought was to go to He Yuzhu's house. After all, He Yuzhu had helped her family the most over the years, whether it was financial support or advice when encountering difficulties, He Yuzhu always lent a hand without hesitation.

However, when she arrived at He Yuzhu's house, she found that his door was tightly closed. She raised her hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside. Qin Huairu sighed helplessly, thinking that He Yuzhu might have fallen asleep or gone out. She had no choice but to turn around and go to Yi Zhonghai's house first.

At this time, at Yi Zhonghai's home, Aunt Tan had just learned that Jia Dongxu had passed away. She couldn't help but sighed, "Oh, I really didn't expect that Jia Dongxu would pass away at such a young age. How will the Jia family live in the future? It must be difficult."

Yi Zhonghai sat aside, nodded solemnly, and said: "Indeed, the Jia family has been devastated. I'm afraid the days ahead will be difficult. However, He Yuzhu has become more and more disobedient recently. I really don't know what he is thinking."

Yi Zhonghai is very angry now. After all, He Yuzhu doesn't listen to him at all.

Aunt Tan was still a little worried about the Jia family's situation. After all, the Jia family lost two laborers at once, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the whole family. Although Jia Dongxu was now disabled, fortunately, the steel mill could still give him some subsidies every month because he had worked for the factory for many years, which could alleviate the Jia family's tight financial situation to some extent.
