After a night of hard work by the public security police, they finally found the other four teenagers who participated in the fight the next day. Without much resistance, they confessed what had happened.

Old Qiao reported to Director Ma, "This incident started when Zhao Erga and his gang beat up Fatty Huang. Zhao Erga got hurt and went to his brother Zhao Dahong, who was injured and hospitalized. In the end, both brothers were killed by an eleven-year-old boy. Zhao Erga's head was broken and Zhao Dahong lost a kidney. Jia Geng is really evil."

Director Ma said, "That's not bad at all. From what you just said, Zhao Dahong wanted to break his leg. If he didn't resist, he would be a coward. He beat someone up, but he also broke his leg. Is he still a child? He deserves to lose a kidney."

"That being said, I understand Jia Geng's behavior, but after all, the two sides were fighting, and Jia Geng did cause malicious injury. What do you think we should do?"

"Then what do you think the Zhao family will ask for?"

"Liu Qiang came back and said that the Zhao family wanted Jia Geng to be sentenced to prison."

"If Jia Geng is sentenced, then his family members Zhao Dahong and Zhao Ergan are a gang, so they should be sentenced as well." Director Ma whispered to Old Qiao, "What I mean is that we should ask the Zhao family not to be too harsh. They are just neighbors living nearby. Just pay some money as compensation. If this matter gets out of hand, it won't be good for us. What do you think?"

Old Qiao nodded and said, "Then I will go talk to the Zhao family. I hope they will agree."

After negotiation by Lao Qiao, the Zhao family proposed that the Jia family pay 200 yuan in compensation and send Banggeng to a work-study school as the final condition.

Qin Huairu refused to agree to the Zhao family's conditions, not because of the money, but because she didn't agree to Banggeng being sent to a work-study school. But the Zhao family insisted on this, and the police also thought that Banggeng dared to use a knife at such a young age, so he should be sent to a work-study school to receive an education. Qin Huairu could only accept this sentence.

Qin Huairu originally thought that 300 yuan could be easily compensated to the Zhao family, because her mother-in-law held the death compensation for Jia Dongxu. Who would have thought that she would not get the money from her mother-in-law, but was scolded for not getting the stick back intact, and had to go to work-study school, and her grandson's future was ruined. Did Qin Huairu do it on purpose to harm the Jia family? The Qin family occupied the Jia family's nest.

Qin Huairu came to ask an old man to borrow money, but the old man saw what happened this time and was worried that Banggeng's destructive power was greater than Qin Huairu's constructive power. He didn't see that he only asked for 300 yuan this time, but he would ask for it next time. It's only eleven or twelve now, and there's still a long way to go. The old man thought for a long time and said, "Huairu, I don't have that much money. I can lend you 50 yuan at most. For the rest, we can hold a meeting and ask everyone to donate."

A meeting of the whole hospital was held for the Jia family's matter. When everyone heard that the other party had to pay 300 yuan for the stick injury, someone said angrily: "This Zhao family is too good at extortion. They dare to ask for 300 yuan for an injury."

Some people sympathize with them, saying, "The orphans and widows of the Jia family are so pitiful. If they don't have this money, they will have to go to jail."

Some were silent, while others laughed at the joke. "I said Qin Huairu was a jinx. Now she is Fang's own son."

The uncle didn't wait for the neighbors to talk for too long before he told them the main purpose of this time. "Tell everyone that the purpose of the Jia family paying so much money is actually to ask for everyone's help. Each family can donate a little bit and let Huairu pay the money first. Later, when the Jia family is well-off, let them pay it back to everyone. Is this okay with you?"

In this era, helping each other is a virtue. Everyone has a disaster. If you help others today, others can help you tomorrow. So no one objected, but they ignored the most important thing - the total amount of money. It was too big. Even if the money borrowed by the first uncle was deducted, there was still 250 yuan. There were only 18 families in the courtyard. Not counting the old lady, the Jia family and the first uncle's family, there were 15 families left. Each family had an average of 16 yuan. Families like the He family, the Xu family and the Liu family could do it. The unmarried bachelors in the courtyard could barely take it out. The remaining families were difficult, especially the third uncle. They counted the money from the beginning of the month to the end of the month. You said that Yan Jiecheng and Liu Yuhua also made money. Can the third uncle go around the world to advertise how much money Liu Yuhua made? So the conditions of the third uncle's family were just above the poverty line. Eating bran and vegetables all day long made Liu Yuhua thin, and she was also full of complaints.

Sha Zhu had already seen the problem, and he vaguely felt that someone was plotting against him again. He and Yu Li looked at each other and waited for the development of the incident.

After a round of donations, the third uncle counted the amount, handed the money to the first uncle, and said, "Old Yi, the total is 30 yuan." When people came forward to donate, they all reported the amount. The first uncle also calculated it in his mind and knew that the difference was far. He was not in a hurry because he knew that many families simply could not come up with so much money. He held a donation meeting to find a few powerful families to solve this problem together. So when he heard that the main concern Sha Zhu, Xu Damao, Liu Yuhua and the second uncle Liu Haizhong only donated 2-5 yuan, he was ready to ask them if they were kind-hearted.

The first uncle picked up the account book, looked at it for a long time, and whispered to the second uncle: "Old Liu, you are a level 72 worker and you only get 3 yuan a month. How can you take only 5 yuan? What's more, you are the head of the hospital. How are you going to manage everyone and establish your authority in the future?"

The second uncle thought to himself: My prestige has long been destroyed by Sha Zhu, and now the title of second uncle is just a figurehead. If I could not bear to give up this title, I would have quit long ago and would have to donate more money.

The first uncle knew what the second uncle Liu Haizhong was thinking: "Donate more. The Jia family has benefited from you. I will talk to the people in the street about you. Your second uncle will not be lost."

After listening to him, the second uncle took out another ten yuan from his pocket. He saw the first uncle shook his head slightly, gritted his teeth and took out another five yuan. Without waiting for the other party to react, he said loudly: "I was planning to give these fifteen yuan to Qin Huairu secretly after the meeting. I was worried that I would give too much and affect everyone's charity. I was wrong and forgot that I am the second uncle and I have to take the lead. Come on, Lao Yi, record these 5 yuan."

After threatening the second uncle, the first uncle looked at Sha Zhu with the power of victory. Sha Zhu was happy in his heart. If you don't say anything, I will consider the two dollars as lost. I don't want Yu Li to have difficulty in carrying out her work in the future because of this little money. If you force me, then we have something to talk about.

"Zhu Zi, Yu Li works on the street after all. Not to mention her salary is not low, but as a grassroots cadre of the country, she should serve the people wholeheartedly." Because Sha Zhu and Yu Li were sitting in the crowd, the eldest uncle couldn't speak in a low voice like he did with the second uncle, and his words were heard by everyone in the audience.

Sha Zhu spoke before Yu Li: "Uncle, what you said is indeed true. We have donated money. You don't think our donation is too little, do you? We have old and young people, we can't donate all of them, right?"
