Siheyuan: Xu Damao corrects his evil ways

Jia Zhang did not understand the difference between mediation and prosecution, which was equivalent to pushing Xiaodang and Huaihua to opposite sides.

In this matter, if Jia Zhang only entrusts the commune to find Jia Dang and Huaihua, as long as they are found, and with the remaining influence of Jia Zhang on her two granddaughters, they can threaten them a little. Then, even if Xiaodang and Huaihua will not take her to live with them, they will still give Jia Zhang a sum of money every month and send her some rice and grain every month.

But the commune clerk didn’t know how to mediate this matter, and it was the first time that the entire commune had encountered such a thing.

These days, when sons and daughters are unfilial, the issue is mostly resolved within the clan or village.

Not to mention asking for support for my granddaughter.

To be honest, the commune clerks didn't know how the law defined this matter. They even looked up the law books and found that there were indeed strict requirements for grandchildren to take care of their grandparents.

But in this case, Jia Zhangshi meets the requirements, and she really does. Jia Dongxu is already dead, Qin Huairu has no obligation to support him, but Banggeng and Xiaodang do.

But let the commune staff try to persuade them. They admit that they don’t have the ability to do so, nor can they afford to lose face in doing so.

People these days have to have some dignity, unlike in later generations when there are so many saints trying to save their reputation and doing all kinds of weird mediations.

Anyway, no staff member is willing to take on this task, and everyone feels that they can't do it, so how can they force the Xiaodang sisters?

If you ask the mediators of later generations, if their parents abandoned them when they were young and then had to take care of those things when they got old, I guess none of them would be able to do it.

But during the mediation, all kinds of moral blackmail were said one after another, saying that those who abandoned their children and expected their children to take care of them in their old age were wolves, and those who were willing to take on the mediation task were hyenas.

It is because of those Madonna Epitaphs that all those strange things happened in later generations.

They are really related, just like those scammers. If it weren't for those uniformed personnel trying to make a big deal out of a small matter, how could the scam business be so prevalent?

If someone commits fraud dozens of times in the same place in one month, do you think there is something wrong with this person?

Why don't you investigate the problem thoroughly, but instead persuade the driver to settle the matter privately with the scammer? How is this different from being an accomplice?

These days, everyone's values ​​are still very positive, so no one is willing to do anything that would be an accomplice to a vicious person.

If it weren't for the fear that Jia Zhang would starve to death, no one would be willing to bring up the matter of suing Jia Zhang.

Jia Zhang filed a lawsuit, and the commune clerk went directly to Jia Dang and Huaihua. This was the first time the two sisters met after Xiaodang got married.

When they learned that it was Jia Zhang who sued them for alimony, the two sisters looked at each other as if to expect it.

In fact, the two sisters were secretly happy in their hearts. If they only gave money and did not have to bring Jia Zhang to live with them, the two sisters would be willing to do so.

Especially when the clerk announced how much money the two sisters should pay to Jia Zhang every month, Xiao Dang Huaihua could be seen heaving a sigh of relief.

Although society has developed a lot in recent years, the minimum living standard has not actually improved.

It was still five yuan in the 1960s (the five guarantees in rural areas in the 1990s were five yuan a month. This shows that at that time, the minimum living standard in many places had not changed. There is a big difference between urban and rural areas in this respect)

Although the clerk offered a little more, he asked the two sisters to give Jia Zhang ten yuan every month.

This gave the two sisters room for bargaining. According to the clerk, seven or eight dollars would be enough to get rid of Jia Zhang.

But Huaihua took out six big unity notes without saying a word and asked the staff to pass them to Jia Zhangshi, and agreed that they would do the same every year and hand them directly to the commune and let the commune pass them on on their behalf.

When the commune staff were still trying to persuade the two sisters to go and see Jia Zhang themselves, Huaihua burst into tears. Women are excellent actors in this respect.

Huaihua cried and said, "Comrade, you should understand the real situation and go to the courtyard to ask Jia Zhang, the grandmother, how she treated us sisters.

The delicious food was eaten by my brother and her first, and we didn’t even have the leftovers.

From childhood to adulthood, we have always been money-losing goods in her eyes.

We don’t want a grandma like this.

This is based on your face. You say give money, and we give money.

But if we think of serving her, that's impossible.

At worst, I can just move to another city."

These words shocked not only the staff, but also Xiaodang. Xiaodang had never expected that after such a short period of time, her sister had been completely transformed.

Seeing this, the clerk stopped trying to persuade them. As he said, people nowadays have to be proud. The clerk put himself in their shoes and realized that he couldn't do it himself, so how could he force the two sisters?

Seeing Huaihua being so generous, Xiaodang also agreed to the commune staff's proposal, but she didn't bring any money with her, so she agreed to send it to the commune tomorrow.

So the two sisters signed, and the clerk gave Huaihua a receipt. When the clerk handed all the money given by the two sisters to Jia Zhangshi, he saw a disgusting scene.

From beginning to end, Jia Zhang never cared about whether Xiaodang and Huaihua were living well. Instead, she complained that the money they gave her was too little. With that little money, they could not even afford to eat meat once a month.

Jia Zhang asked the clerk to ask the two sisters for more money, otherwise she would still sue them.

Jia Zhang said with a grim look on her face: "If those two money-losing bastards don't pay, I will sue them and make them suffer in prison."

The clerk suppressed his nausea and said to Jia Zhang with a serious face, "According to our standards, Jia Dang and Jia Huaihua only need to pay you five yuan a month.

You can sue them, but if the law rules, you have to pay half of the money back to them according to the minimum standard. Forget it, since you want to sue, we can only temporarily take back the money to save you from spending it. If the court rules that the money must be returned, we have the money to return it.”

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang's expression immediately changed. She smiled at the staff and said, "Comrade, comrade, I didn't say I would really sue them. They are my granddaughters after all. How could I really force them to death?"

Jia Zhang herself didn't believe what she said.

Seeing Jia Zhang spitting and counting the money, the clerk sneered, "Don't think I'm joking. Your granddaughter said that they don't have jobs anyway. If you make trouble, they can just move to another place and you won't get a penny then."

These words touched Jia Zhang's heart. She had no hope at all now, so naturally she valued money more.

She really thought that since the money was in her hands, it was hers, so she could just spend it first and then make a fuss when she had no money left.

But when the staff said this, Jia Zhang was also frightened. From what she thought, if Xiaodang and the others were really hiding from her, she might not be able to find them.

In fact, the reason why we were able to find the locust flowers this time was because Yan Bugui was afraid of trouble.

Yan Bugui suggested to Huaihua that she go to He Daqing. If Huaihua got into trouble, someone would definitely look for him.

So Yan Bugui specifically found out where Huaihua worked and even went to the restaurant to confirm it.

When the staff asked where Sophora japonica was through the Nanluoguxiang Sub-district Office, Yan Bugui told the truth.

If Huaihua moved to another place without telling anyone, it would be very difficult to find her.

It's much the same with Xiao Dajia. The couple must have lost all face in this alley.

Xiaodang has also whispered to her husband many times about buying a house and moving out.

Although men like to toss around small pawns, they still have some vision in doing business these days. Having money to buy a house is definitely a money-making thing.

So Xiao Dajia has been considering moving recently.

Jia Zhang was trying to get the addresses of her two granddaughters and ask Xiaodang why they didn't come to see her.

But at this time, the staff was full of disgust towards her and would never answer her questions.

He took the typed receipt and read it to Jia Zhang, took out the ink pad, asked Jia Zhang to put her hand print on it, then got on his bike and left.

Jia Zhang counted the money again, and happily spat in the direction where the clerk left.

I've already been calculating in my mind how to spend the money.

After suffering in there for several years, I must enjoy myself after I get out.

She wanted to eat meat, renovate her house, and exchange for plenty of flour.

As for whether this amount of money was enough, Jia Zhang didn't care.

According to Jia Zhang's idea, since Xiaodang Huaihua could give it the first time, she could give it the second time.

As long as Jia Zhang finds out where the two sisters are, Xiao Dang Huaihua will not be able to escape from her grasp.

So, Jia Zhang started a large-scale purchase in the village and bought two roosters at once. She had someone prepare them, cook them, and send them to her.

He found a family that had just married a new bride and bought the quilt with a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water that the new bride brought as a dowry.

He also found a wealthy family in the village and exchanged it for more than ten kilograms of flour.

I also bought new pots, spatulas, spoons and bowls from other people.

I couldn’t afford a new bed, so I had to buy an old one.

The same is true for tables, chairs and benches.

The prices of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar were calculated and the villagers were asked to bring them back.

Jia Zhang used money to pay for all the grievances she had suffered in the past few days.

In her eyes, no matter how miserable she was, she was still a city dweller, and naturally could not be compared with those peasants in the village.

But when Jia Zhang finished her shopping spree and counted the money in her hand, she found that it had shrunk by more than half, and there was less than fifty left.

This thing made Jia Zhang feel uneasy again.

How can this money be so tight? I am still thinking about renovating the old house of Jia's family. This amount of money is definitely not enough.

But Jia Zhang was not in a hurry. Instead, she sat down and tasted the chicken soup that the villagers had just brought her.

Jia Zhang has always been greedy for this thing.

In the past few years, Jia Zhangshi had not even had a proper meal of steamed buns, let alone meat.

Otherwise, all the fat on my body wouldn't be lost in there.

So Jia Zhang couldn't hold back and almost ate all the two chickens and the soup. It wasn't until the taste of the meat reached her throat and she couldn't eat any more that she put down her greasy hands.

Looking at the pile of chewed chicken bones in front of her, Jia Zhang burped with satisfaction!

Lying on the newly bought quilt, life feels so perfect.

But Jia Zhang forgot that she had been living in a half-hungry state for the past few years, and now her mouth could bear the overeating, but her stomach could not.

I couldn't even fall asleep and I started vomiting, having diarrhea and stomach pain.

This pain is not a dull pain, but a piercing pain.

Jia Zhang rolled over on the bed in pain, but no village was willing to put a cowshed in the middle of the village because it was too smelly.

So no one heard Jia Zhang's wailing.

At this time, Jia Zhang's instinct for survival took over. She rolled off the bed and crawled towards the door.

It’s not like Jia Zhang had never suffered before. The hardships she went through when she was young are something that many people today cannot understand.

So Jia Zhang could endure it, she insisted on crawling towards the village. She gnashed her teeth, her face was ferocious, but she didn't scream.

Life is just a breath. When the breath is gone, the person is gone.

Jia Zhang understood this truth very well. When she saw a house, she took a deep breath and screamed at the house, "Help! Who can save me?"

The lights in that house came on, but the couple on the bed looked at each other.

The woman said, "It seems to be the psychopath who just returned to the village."

The man quietly got out of bed, looked out the window for a long time, then returned to the bed like a thief and said to his wife, "Don't worry about her. I heard that this old lady even schemed against her own granddaughter.

She will bring disaster to her husband, children and grandchildren. No one who gets involved with her will have a good ending.

We don't care about people like this.

If we have this time, we can work overtime and make a little third child."

After saying this, the man jumped on his horse.

The woman also smiled foolishly and ignored the shouts outside.

Jia Zhang didn't remember how many times she shouted, but she saw the lights in that house turned on and off, but no one came out.

Jia Zhangshi understood very well that people just didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs.

Jia Zhang muttered a few words quietly, but kept crawling forward.

Bubbles were gurgling from the butt, like a jet.

Jia Zhang thought she would die, and she did die.

When they crawled to the village, someone came out to take a look. When the flashlight shone on Jia Zhang on the ground, the villagers couldn't help but exclaimed.

Then all the villagers came out.

At this time, Jia Zhang thought she was saved.

But even though there were many people watching, no one was willing to step forward.

This is definitely not normal. If it were a villager, even if there were conflicts, upon seeing this situation, they would save lives first.

But after all, Jia Zhang hadn't returned to the village for decades, and no one wanted to get into trouble.

Even Lao Jia's relatives were standing by and watching.

I can’t afford to see a doctor!

In Jia Zhang's case, medical expenses of more than ten yuan are definitely not enough to cure her.

No one wants to be involved in this matter.

By the time the village chief came out, Jia Zhang was already breathing heavily.

The village chief didn't even get close to observe. There was nothing he could do because Jia Zhang smelled too bad.

They just had someone harness Jia Zhang to a donkey cart and take her to the commune.

It took more than ten minutes to decide who would go and who would not.

Looking at Jia Zhang again, her face was as pale as gold paper.
