Siheyuan: Sizhu starts blindly and takes a new path

An old man explained: "I didn't ask you to donate all of it. I just said that 2 yuan is a little too little. Zhuzi, put yourself in my shoes."

"Since you think it's too little, I can donate more, but there are some things I want to clarify first. Please give me a true answer from the Jia family. Don't say that I donate more money. I can even help pay 300 yuan. As long as everyone agrees that I can pay, then I will pay."

The old man looked at Qin Huairu, and Qin Huairu shook her head first. She was afraid that Sha Zhu would ask her about the matter of withholding food when she was blind. That was really difficult to talk about. She nodded immediately and decided to lie since there was no witness anyway.

"It's been almost three years since Jia Dongxu died. Nothing major has happened to your Jia family since then, right? Except this time."

Qin Huairu said: "Thank you for remembering how long Dongxu had been gone. My family was relatively peaceful after that. Nothing could be worse than losing the pillar of the family."

"Well, since nothing serious happened to your family, then Jia Dongxu's death pension should still be there. That amount should be much more than 300 yuan."

Qin Huairu looked at Sha Zhu with her eyes wide open. Of course she knew where the pension was and how much it was, but she couldn't get it. She just said that nothing serious had happened in her family, so it was impossible for her to use the money. How could she explain this to everyone?

"It's hard to explain, right?" Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu for a long time without saying anything, "The money is with your mother-in-law, right?"

Seeing Qin Huairu nod subconsciously, the neighbors suddenly realized what was going on. They no longer had to doubt the truthfulness of Sha Zhu's words.

"Why do you save money while we spend it? Some families have higher salaries, but they also have heavier burdens. Who can guarantee that there will be no problems in the future?"

Qin Huairu immediately said: "I will pay it back. Everyone believe me, I will really pay it back, please." At the same time, she bowed deeply to everyone.

"Yes, Qin Huairu has always performed well in the hospital and should be able to do what she says. I believe in her." Song Ming stood up and spoke up for justice.

"I also believe that she wants to pay the money back. I won't think too badly of her, but I'm worried that she won't be able to pay it back. Qin Huairu, you only make 33 yuan a month, and you have to support five people. How much money can you have left? And Banggeng has to pay 5 yuan for his mistake this time. What if he makes the same mistake again in the future? Can you ensure that he won't make any mistakes in the future?"

"Zhu Zi, you are too cruel. If we don't help, Qin Huairu will really be helpless." An old man persuaded.

"Of course there is no way. First, convince her mother-in-law to pay compensation. Second, since she thinks she can pay it back, why not borrow money from the factory? You are an eighth-level master craftsman, so you can be her guarantor and let her borrow money from the factory to compensate the Zhao family."

"This is a good idea. We don't have to tighten our belts and can help save money." The third uncle immediately agreed. With someone taking the lead, the neighbors nodded.

The donation plan fell through, so the third uncle took out his record book and returned the money to everyone according to the amount of donation. After getting the money back, people felt like they had found something for free and were delighted.

Mrs. Jia, who had been lying in the room resting, heard that the donation compensation issue was messed up by Sha Zhu, and she cursed out the window: "Damn Sha Zhu, he has no conscience, he makes so much money, but he is still rich and unkind, he eats so well, but he doesn't send any to our family, and he talks nonsense when asked to donate some money, his conscience has been eaten by dogs, Dongxu has been kind to him in vain. He is an ungrateful wolf, a bastard."

"Mom, please don't shout. It's not good for the neighbors to hear you."

"I scolded her for anything bad. I also want to scold Yu Li. She didn't help her neighbor when he was in trouble. She still has the nerve to work on the street. She is a waste."

Qin Huairu couldn't control Mrs. Jia, so she had to coax Xiaodang and Huaihua to sleep. She was thinking about how much money she could borrow from the manufacturer tomorrow.

Xu Damao pointed at Qin Jingru and said, "Remember this. You are not allowed to lend money to you, Qin Huairu. Her family is a trap. Once you put money in, you can't get it back."

"Don't worry, I definitely won't lend it to you. In fact, my sister approached me this afternoon, but I refused. She asked for 100 yuan, but I don't have that much money."

"Why, you really gave it to her if you had it?"

"How is that possible? Even if I had it, I wouldn't lend it to her. What Sha Zhu just said is right. She only gets 33 a month and has to support so many people. How can she pay back?"

After hearing this, Xu Damao happily hugged Qin Jingru and kissed her: "Yes, this is a member of my Xu family. Everything should be based on my Xu family."

The next day, the uncle found Director Yang and promised to take Qin Huairu to work overtime and make more contributions to the factory. He applied for a loan of 240 yuan and asked Qin Huairu to pay it back within three years, otherwise he would be fired. The uncle paid another 10 yuan and asked Qin Huairu to collect 300 yuan to compensate the Zhao family as soon as possible so that Banggeng could be released from the police station earlier.

After Qin Huairu brought Banggeng back to the courtyard in the afternoon, the children in the courtyard retreated quietly when they saw Banggeng, not daring to look him in the eye. Banggeng's grandmother, Mrs. Jia, didn't care what her grandson had done. She held her grandson and looked around several times, confirming that he was not injured and came back safe and sound. Then she held Banggeng and cried, "Grandson, listen to grandma, don't dare to stab anyone again in the future. This time, it was your grandfather and father who blessed you that you didn't stab anyone to death. Otherwise, how would you let grandma live!"

Banggeng was silent. On the way back, Qin Huairu told him that he would have to go to a work-study school tomorrow. He would have classes for half a day and work for half a day, and go home once a week. The students in the school included street children, orphans, and children who had made serious mistakes like him. He wondered why this happened. He was beaten, and why he was the only one sent to a work-study school, but the two Zhao brothers were not.

The two brothers of the Zhao family were indeed not sent to a work-study school, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't. The police station originally wanted to send him to a work-study school, after all, he organized a small gang to fight, but Zhao Dahong was seriously injured, and Zhao's mother fought desperately with her head stake to prevent the police from taking him away. When returning to the police station, Lao Qiao reported to Director Ma, "I went to Zhao's house and asked the doctor for advice. The doctor said that Zhao Dahong had basically recovered and could live a normal life, so we went there. But I saw that Zhao Dahong was pale, his legs were weak, and his forehead was sweating. You have to say that he was scared. Even in the end, we said not to send him to a work-study school, but the sweat on his forehead kept flowing. It was the end of September, and it wasn't that hot. It can only mean that Zhao Dahong is weak because he has lost his kidneys. In the next one or two years, he won't have the strength to fight and make trouble."

"Okay, we send them to a work-study school so that they can learn well. In that case, let him recuperate at home. But someone has to keep an eye on him from time to time, in case he is pretending?" Director Ma made the final arrangements.

"You are really thoughtful and considerate. Okay, I will arrange it according to your suggestion."

Banggeng was sent to a work-study school, and the courtyard entered a period of peace. However, Yu Li was criticized by Director Wang because of her donation to the Jia family.
