Siheyuan: Pushing Huairu, the Prime Minister admits defeat

Chapter 88: Li Weijun establishes his authority, and each family suffers

Li Weijun smiled and raised his eyebrows, knowing that even a tiger would not eat its own cubs.

If he dared to continue to act like a spoiled brat and refused to give him the cloth shoes, Li Weijun would directly inform the police and have Jia Dongxu put in a cage and handcuffed.

There is zero tolerance for gambling these days, and anyone who reports it will be punished.

It is because he is certain that Jia Zhang loves her son and thus he can put a damper on the arrogance of this old woman.

Seeing that Li Weijun did not abide by the moral principles of martial arts and actually took out another piece of paper, Jia Zhang, who had been sitting on the ground and wailing, was dumbfounded.

His momentum suddenly dropped, his cheeks puffed up, and he mumbled incoherently: "My eyes are blurry and I can't see the words clearly. Bring it closer so I can see it."

"Here, look carefully, it's written in black and white!"

"Aunt Zhang, I am considerate of you, the elderly, the weak, women and children, so I didn't charge you any interest. I asked you to give me a pair of shoes for a while. I was very kind, but you still don't appreciate it. There is no justice."

Li Weijun pursed his lips, and while no one was paying attention, he took out a piece of old newspaper used for wiping buttocks from his personal space, and used the raccoon to replace the prince.

He quickly handed it to Jia Zhang who had been waiting for a long time.

Because the speed was so fast, no one present noticed anything unusual.

Jia Zhang's expression was tense. She was only concerned with crying for her husband who had died many years ago, and didn't think much about it.

When the newspaper was handed to her, the old woman stopped crying, her eyes lit up, and she chewed the old newspaper in big mouthfuls at lightning speed.

As he ate, he thought to himself with pride: "Old ginger is still the wisest. How dare you show such a thing as a written document to others so easily? This time I swallow it down, and there will be no evidence. Whether I owe money or not, it will all turn into a pile of shit."

"No, Aunt Zhang, what you did was not fair. Why did you eat the IOU of the guard?"

Sha Zhu, who was watching from the sidelines, was stunned, while Qin Huairu was hesitant to speak. She wanted to speak up for Li Weijun, but as she was the daughter-in-law of the Jia family, she could only remain silent for the sake of avoiding suspicion.

"What? Where is the IOU?"

"Who said I ate the IOU? Did you see it, or did you see it? I'm telling you, idiot, don't talk nonsense without evidence."

Jia Zhang showed her vicious side. After glaring at Sha Zhu, she stretched her neck and started to cry out for injustice, while at the same time she did not forget to talk about her deceased husband.

Jumping and clapping, muttering to himself.

"Old Jia, please open your eyes and take a look. Ever since you abandoned us, even Shazhu can ride on our heads and pee and poop. What's the point of living like this?"

Li Weijun was amused by this rogue behavior. He just treated it as a joke and slowly took out the real IOU from his pocket and waved it in front of Jia Zhangshi.

"Aunt Zhang, considering that you are old and it is not easy to be a comedian and make everyone laugh here, I will give you one more chance. Give it to me while I still want these new shoes. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Gambling, not paying back debts, and having improper relationships with men and women, tsk tsk, these are serious crimes."

Li Weijun did not argue with her and pretended to be ready to leave the hospital to find the police.

Qin Huairu also advised: "Mom, if Li Weijun wants this pair of cloth shoes, just give it to him. Dongxu's work and safety are the most important. Our family depends on Dongxu for support."

Sha Zhu also tried to smooth things over: "Yes, Aunt Zhang, we were originally in the wrong in this matter. They are willing to give us another chance, so don't be so unreasonable."

"I am a demon? That's unjust. How can it be easy for an old lady like me, who can't even lift a chicken, to make a pair of shoes?"

"Here you go, all for you!"

"If you're not afraid of rotting your feet, wear it!"

Seeing that Li Weijun was able to counter each move, Jia Zhang was completely at a loss. Although she had a bad reputation and was arrogant and unreasonable in the courtyard, she had nothing to say to her own son Jia Dongxu.

After howling for a few times, he had no choice but to surrender.

Li Weijun was too lazy to bother with these details. He happily took the shoes and put them on comfortably in front of Jia Zhang.

Not to mention, the size is quite suitable.

He smiled and praised Jia Zhang: "Aunt Zhang is indeed a skilled craftsman. These shoes are really amazing. Next time they are worn out, I will come to you again."

This made Jia Zhang so angry that she rolled her eyes and cried out: "Old Jia, please open your eyes and take a look. What kind of world is this? It's so unfair."

Seeing that the old woman was about to start summoning the dead again, Li Weijun was too lazy to stay any longer, in front of the neighbors who heard the news and rushed over to join in the fun.

He proudly wore the cloth shoes he got for free from Jia Zhang and walked a few steps with Sha Zhu.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she glanced at Jia Zhang and said, "Oh, Aunt Zhang, I am a generous person. I will give you half of the fish as a gift to show my filial piety. It is not easy for you to be in confinement after childbirth. You need to have more milk to have enough milk, so that you don't have to worry about the hungry baby crying in the middle of the night."

After saying this, in front of the shocked gazes of the neighbors, he leisurely went back to the house with Sha Zhu to drink and eat meat.

Only Jia Zhang, with a face full of resentment, and the neighbors who came to join in the fun were left dumbfounded.

"No, am I seeing things? Li Weijun actually managed to get a pair of shoes from this stingy guy?"

"Who says it's not true? Everyone in our hospital knows Aunt Zhang's temper. She is famous for being able to eat but not eat. Li Weijun is really capable."

"If you ask me, there is always a way out. Aunt Zhang really needs to find someone to treat her."

Seeing everyone talking at once, Jia Zhang became angry and scolded those who were pointing fingers at her in a very unpleasant way.

The aunties who were watching the fun understood that the old hag was difficult to deal with, so they all went back to their houses with a smile.

After the group of people dispersed, Jia Zhang returned to the room, sat cross-legged, and glanced at her daughter-in-law who was busy feeding the child.

With a droopy eye, he said sinisterly, "Let me ask you, why did Li Weijun suddenly say that he would leave half of the fish for you to replenish your breasts?"

Qin Huairu was startled by this question. She was afraid that the old witch would notice something. She calmly lifted her hair and pretended to be stupid, "Mom, how should I know? Maybe Li Weijun deliberately wanted to make everyone in the family restless and take revenge on you."

"That's true. That kid from the Li family is so bad. He can do anything dirty. My shoes are a waste."

Jia Zhang sighed, and Qin Huairu just subconsciously replied: "Mom, if you didn't go out to make shoes and went back to the house, Li Weijun wouldn't see it, maybe this wouldn't have happened."

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong.

As expected, when Jia Zhang heard her daughter-in-law complain, she immediately became furious and said with a ferocious face: "Mind your own business, when did the Jia family make you prominent?"

"In the final analysis, you are useless! If you made a few more pairs of shoes for me, would you care about this one?"

"It's just giving birth to a child, and you still have to eat well during the confinement period. When I gave birth to Dongxu, I had to go out to beg for food in the middle of winter. If you ask me, it's Dongxu who spoiled you!"

The baby who was breastfeeding in her arms was frightened by this and burst into tears instantly.

Qin Huairu's eyes turned red, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she felt unspeakable pain in her heart.

"Mom, I really didn't mean that. You must have misunderstood me. I haven't even slept well these days because I've been doing some needlework to supplement the family income. When I'm free in a few days, I'll help you sew some shoe soles."

When Jia Zhang saw Qin Huairu's hypocritical look, she felt like retching and rolled her eyes in annoyance: "You don't need to pretend to be sympathetic. If it were you, Dongxu wouldn't get promoted for so many years. It must be because of you. You are a jinx, unlucky!"

Qin Huairu was bullied by her mother-in-law in every way, but she didn't say anything. She just went back to the back room to wipe her tears.

While wiping his tears, he used a towel to wipe the dirty cheeks of Bang Geng, who was covered in dust, and patiently reminded him: "Son, don't tell your father what happened today. Let's just pretend that nothing happened."

Bang Geng looked at the front yard with hatred, shook his head fiercely, and said indignantly: "No, Li Weijun is not a good person. He bullied my grandma, and my grandma is even less a good person. She only knows how to get angry at you. When I grow up and have the ability, I will definitely vent my anger on you, mom."

"Beat them till they are pissing and shitting, and screaming like comic books."

"You kid, you're talking nonsense!"

Seeing this deflated stick, Qin Huairu was both surprised and happy. She was surprised that this kid knew how to endure and take revenge at such a young age. She was happy that he knew how to vent his mother's anger and was indeed a filial son.

But Li Weijun was his sweetheart, and he must not be treated as an enemy, so he patiently explained: "Banggeng, your uncle Weijun is a good man. He is willing to lend money to our family, and it is normal for him to ask for a pair of shoes as a reward. If your grandma hadn't thrown a tantrum, nothing would have happened later."

"Besides, your uncle Weijun often helps your father with things... In short, he saves your father a lot of effort. He is a very good person."

However, no matter how much Qin Huairu persuaded him, Bang Geng just stiffened his neck and shook his head: "I don't care, Dad and grandma have told me that whoever bullies our Jia family is a bad person, and Li Weijun is a big bad person."

Seeing the childish face of Bang Geng, the seeds of hatred were already deeply planted in his heart.

Qin Huairu was filled with worries and could only sigh helplessly...

At the same time, at the home of Sha Zhu in the Central Courtyard.

He Yushui, who had already prepared the drinks, saw Li Weijun wearing new shoes and carrying his original tattered cloth shoes into the house. He quickly got up and helped Li Weijun brush his shoes.

The girl raised her hand so attentively that Li Weijun felt flattered. He took a few steps back and was about to refuse.

Unexpectedly, Sha Zhu waved his hand and said, "Wei Jun, it's my duty, it's my duty. You are a guest now, we are all family, and brushing shoes is not tiring. Just sit down and wait for dinner."

There's no way. Even my eldest brother Shazhu has no objection.

Li Weijun could only hand the dusty and tattered cloth shoes to He Yushui with a smile.

She explained, "I've been through movies, trekking through mountains and rivers, and running around. These shoes just don't last long. Don't brush them too clean, girl. Just rinse them a few times."

As he said that, he took out a few pieces of Golden Monkey candies from his pocket and stuffed them into He Yushui's pocket without saying a word.

This moved the little girl so much that tears welled up in her eyes, and she quickly ran to the well to brush her shoes.

While Sha Zhu was cooking, Li Weijun was bored and started chatting with Sha Zhu about family matters.

Only then did I realize that He Yushui would graduate from junior high school in the early spring of next year. He would decide whether to go to high school and take the college entrance examination to pursue a brighter future, or go directly to a technical secondary school and be assigned a job after graduation.

Sha Zhu couldn't come up with an idea. If he went to high school and took the college entrance examination, the risk would be too great. If he passed the college entrance examination, all would be settled, like a fish jumping over the dragon gate. But if he failed the college entrance examination, it would be safer to go directly to a technical secondary school.

These days, the educational level has not shrunk so much. If you go to a technical secondary school directly after graduating from junior high school, you will be assigned to a position as soon as you graduate, and you will be promoted to a senior position in no time.

I can get my salary earlier and share the pressure on my family.

But whether you are in high school or technical secondary school, a bicycle is naturally indispensable when you are far away from home.

Sha Zhu has recently been planning to save money to buy He Yushui a bicycle for commuting to school. He has almost saved enough money, the only difficulty is that he can't get a bicycle ticket.

Although he is not very reliable as a brother under normal circumstances, he still cares about his sister in his heart.

It just so happened that the few bicycle tickets that Li Weijun copied from Xu Damao last time were lying in the space gathering dust. If the price was right, it would not be a problem to do Sha Zhu a favor.

"Silly Zhu, you're right. I happen to know a leader who is in charge of this when I show movies. If you really want it, I can get you a bicycle ticket. It's a Phoenix brand bicycle with a large bar. It's so cool."

Sure enough, as soon as I heard that Li Weijun had the connections and could get bicycle tickets.

Sha Zhu thanked him profusely, almost kowtowing himself on the ground.

He said impatiently, "Weijun, if you can really get me a bicycle ticket, I will call you brother from now on. If anyone dares to argue with you in this courtyard, I, Shazhu, will be the first one to disagree."

"Whatever dish you want, even if it means going through a mountain of swords and a cauldron of oil, dragon liver and phoenix marrow, or monkey brain, I can find a way to get it for you."

Li Weijun waved his hand nonchalantly: "We are from the same courtyard, it's too formal to say that. Yushui is your sister, so she is also my sister. It's okay to get a bicycle ticket for our sister."

Coincidentally, at this time, He Yushui had just come back from hanging up the shoes. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Li Weijun's domineering and heroic look.

She was so moved that she twisted the corner of her clothes with her slender fingers, and she seemed to have a different feeling towards Li Weijun in her heart.

After Sha Zhu finally put the chopped pepper fish head that Li Weijun had been craving for on the table, he stewed a fish soup and fried some peanuts and bacon.

Several people took their seats one by one and started to have a drink.

Sha Zhu was drinking with Li Weijun, while He Yushui was eating fish with her lips pursed. Seeing that Li Weijun's wine cup was empty, she hurriedly helped to pour the wine.

As for her brother Sha Zhu, no one paid any attention to him, which made Sha Zhu laugh and cry: "My sister is good in every way, but she is not considerate of her brother. Look, there are still some rules for pouring wine."

Li Weijun drank a mouthful of Lao Baigan happily, and said calmly: "Shazhu, you should pay more attention to Yu Shui, and stop focusing on other things all day. In my opinion, it would be better for Yu Shui to apply for the Central Specialized School next spring."
