Siheyuan, my new life

Yi Zhonghai was immediately anxious when he heard the discussion of the old ladies behind him. If someone really went to the police station and the street office to complain about him at this time, he might really be arrested. So he quickly shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, I just want to persuade the deaf old lady to hand over the gold she has hidden privately to the country. This is also for the good of the deaf old lady, to prevent her from making mistakes at such an old age."

Aunt Huang spat on the ground and couldn't help cursing: "Yi Zhonghai, you hypocrite, do you really think that so many people here are deaf? Everyone heard what you said just now clearly. Yi, you are a shameless thing. Let me tell you, so that you can give up this idea. The old lady donated the ancestral gold to the country a long time ago. I accompanied the old lady to the street office. Even the district leaders came in person to issue the certificate to the old lady and took a photo for the newspaper."

Yi Zhonghai was struck by lightning after hearing this. He pointed at the deaf old lady and shouted, "You, you, how could you bear to donate so much gold for nothing? Do you know how much sixty or seventy large yellow croakers are worth? That's one hundred and fifty or sixty thousand yuan!"

The deaf old lady looked at the somewhat crazy Yi Zhonghai coldly, and said lightly: "Everyone has heard what Yi Zhonghai, the hypocrite, said, right? He is a selfish guy in his bones. He talks about benevolence and morality all day long, but his belly is full of thieves and prostitutes. Under the banner of uniting neighbors, he asked every household in the courtyard to contribute money and food to help you support the Jia family. You, Yi Zhonghai, dare to say in front of everyone, what is your relationship with the Jia family? Do you think no one knows about you and Qin Huairu, that little vixen, sneaking into the vegetable cellar? You pretend to be a decent person all day long. Who doesn't scold you for being hypocritical and shameless behind your back? What can I be reluctant to do, old lady? Now I have He Daqing and Zhuzi to take care of me in my old age. They both have jobs and can earn wages. I, old lady, also receive a subsidy from the state every month, which is enough for our family to eat and drink. Yi Zhonghai, you are completely hopeless."

After being scolded by the deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai was like a defeated rooster. He turned around dejectedly and walked slowly back to the central courtyard. When he got home, he closed the door and sat on the chair in a daze.

Today, Jia Zhang did not go to the backyard to watch the fun. Even with her thick skin, she was too embarrassed to get close to people. As for Qin Huairu, she was hiding in the house like a quail. Except for going to the street office to receive education in the morning and then cleaning the public toilet over there, after coming back, she went out to wash clothes under the strange eyes of the neighbors, and spent most of her time hiding in the house.

Originally, Jia Dongxu did not tell her about the affair between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu when he returned home. The next day, he went to the security department of the steel rolling mill early and asked the security guard on duty that he wanted to find Secretary Xiao.

At this time, Secretary Xiao was cleaning up the director's office. After hearing the report from the doorman, he was very surprised. What did Jia Dongxu want to see him about? However, he still let Jia Dongxu in.

Next to the director's office, Secretary Xiao saw Jia Dongxu and was immediately shocked by his haggard appearance. Jia Dongxu now had dark circles under his eyes, a sallow complexion, and a dejected look, just like an old man in his twilight years.

Secretary Xiao quickly handed the other party a cigarette and asked with concern: "Comrade Jia Dongxu, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you go to the hospital for a check-up?"

Jia Dongxu took the cigarette with a wry smile, lit it and took a deep puff, then took out a diagnosis report from his pocket and placed it in front of Secretary Xiao.

Secretary Xiao picked it up with some surprise. Although he knew every word of the professional terms on it, he could only guess what they meant. However, he understood the final diagnosis result. Due to severe damage to kidney function, the patient had basically lost his fertility.

Jia Dongxu explained bitterly: "After listening to the recordings of Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu yesterday afternoon, I went to Tongrentang to see an old Chinese doctor for a checkup. You saw the final result, which is that I am no longer able to have children."

Secretary Xiao asked in confusion: "Comrade Jia Dongxu, what do you mean? I have to attend the director's office meeting later, so please keep it short."

Jia Dongxu quickly said, "Secretary Xiao, I am in this situation now. Even if Qin Huairu divorces me, I will never have children again. I have thought about it all night, and after thinking it over, I feel that the mistakes of adults should not involve children. After all, the two children are innocent, and I have worked hard to raise them and have developed feelings for them. Therefore, I decided not to divorce Qin Huairu, but I cannot let those two dogs get away with it. I want to ask Yi Zhonghai for compensation, and the living expenses of the two children will be borne by Yi Zhonghai in the future."

Secretary Xiao looked at Jia Dongxu for a while. He now understood what Jia Dongxu meant. After knowing that he had lost his fertility, Jia Dongxu was worried that he would be ridiculed if the news got out, so he continued to let Qin Huairu and her son live in the Jia family. In this way, the two children still had the surname Jia, which could be considered as hiding the truth. As for being criticized now, it was estimated that no one would be interested in it after a while. Of course, it was understandable that he asked Yi Zhonghai for compensation. After all, Yi Zhonghai was his master, but he did such a shameful thing, so it was only right for him to give him some financial compensation.

Under Secretary Xiao's gaze, Jia Dongxu ducked his head. He felt that the other party seemed to be able to see through his little thoughts. When he was daydreaming, he suddenly heard Secretary Xiao's voice: "Comrade Jia Dongxu, I need to ask the director for instructions on this matter. Please wait here for a while."

After Secretary Xiao finished speaking, he walked towards the director's office next door. He had just seen Qin Ming walk into the office.

After listening to Secretary Xiao's report, Qin Ming thought for a moment and then ordered: "Xiao Xiao, take Jia Dongxu to the detention room to meet Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, and let them negotiate and resolve the issue themselves. We don't have so much time to deal with their bullshit. Qin Huairu will be released tomorrow, and the street office will make a decision."

So Secretary Xiao took Jia Dongxu to the detention room, first asked someone to bring Qin Huairu out, and arranged an empty room for them. Then Secretary Xiao walked out. He was not interested in listening to the conversation between the two.

Jia Dongxu glared at the haggard Qin Huairu and cursed in a low voice: "Qin Huairu, you stinky bitch, you teamed up with Yi Zhonghai, that dead end, to plot against me and our Jia family. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"

Qin Huairu could tell from Jia Dongxu's words that he already knew about her and Yi Zhonghai. She could only shed tears and whispered pitifully: "Dongxu, I know I'm sorry for you, but I have no choice. Yi Zhonghai forced me to do this."
