Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

When the second aunt came over, Liu Guangqi had already come out of the emergency room.

Although it looks miserable, they are actually just superficial injuries, and there are few healthy pieces of flesh on the body.

Liu Guangqi fainted from the pain, and when he woke up he was still in pain, screaming like a pig being slaughtered.

The doctor obviously understood what this guy had done, so naturally he had no good feelings towards him and ignored his crying. The process looked a bit scary, but the knowledgeable doctor was used to it.

Liu Guangqi fainted several times from the pain and was finally pushed out of the emergency room. However, he looked a little bit stupid and was obviously numb from the pain.

Chen Xu and others pushed him into the ward, and he saw a familiar figure as soon as he entered the door.

Jia Dongxu.

Chen Xu really didn't know what to say now. At the beginning, Xu Damao said that Jia Dongxu was someone he half admired, but now he was only half admired.

Even a crow's mouth is not as effective as Xu Damao's words.

Naturally, several of them knew Jia Dongxu, and after lifting Liu Guangqi to the bed, they couldn't help but say hello to him.

Jia Dongxu felt a little listless. After these days, no matter how excited he was, the moment was over, and he was more confused about the future.

After giving a soft response as a response to the words of the neighbors in the courtyard, Jia Dongxu looked out the window numbly again.

It was difficult for them to say anything. After all, considering Jia Dongxu's current condition, there was really no hope for him.

Chen Xu looked at the two people lying on the hospital beds with numb faces, and inexplicably felt that it was a little unreal. A lot of things happened in the courtyard during this period of time, and they were all related to him.

He was involved directly or indirectly, and I don’t know if it can be considered a butterfly effect.

Chen Xu felt helpless, he really didn't want to do anything. Since he arrived at the Siheyuan, he never took the initiative to cause trouble. Whether it was Sha Zhu or Liu Guangqi, it was not him who took the initiative to cause trouble.

Fortunately, this guy always managed to get away with it perfectly, and no one suspected him of these things. It was a blessing in disguise, and he even got a lot of benefits for it.

There were only two beds in the ward, Jia Dongxu's was by the window and Liu Guangqi's was by the door. Chen Xu simply sat down on Jia Dongxu's bed and waved his hand in front of his eyes.

"how is it now?"

Jia Dongxu turned his head gently.

"Are you here to laugh at my joke?"

"I'm not that bored. If Liu Guangqi hadn't been sent here, I wouldn't even know that you were in that ward."

Jia Dongxu believed this. Apart from Yi Zhonghai who had come to the courtyard once, no one else had ever visited him except Qin Huairu.

"What's the point of me being alive now?"

Jia Dongxu's words were so incomprehensible that Chen Xu remained silent for a few seconds.

It's really meaningless. After all, Jia Dongxu was seriously injured. All three legs were gone. He lost his last hope. What hope is there?

But you can't say that.

"Then you better think about it. I remember that you value your family very much. If you die, be careful that others will live in your house, play with your wife, spend your money and beat your children..."

Chen Xu didn't stay long before leaving with the others, leaving Jia Dongxu with a pensive look on his face.

Actually, what Chen Xu said was not wrong. Qin Huairu was not even 30 years old yet. Jia Dongxu himself did not believe that she could remain a widow for the rest of her life.

If I die, what Chen Xu said will most likely come true.

Jia Dongxu felt an inexplicable panic. The most tragic thing in life is not death.

But he died before he had spent all his money, had a beautiful wife, and had children, and in the end, everything he had was inherited by other men. When Jia Dongxu thought of that scene, he felt numb.

No, I can't die now...

Chen Xu naturally didn't know that just a few words from him could fill Jia Dongxu, who was determined to die, with fighting spirit.

On the way back to the courtyard, Yan Bugui next to him looked at Chen Xu.

"Although what you said just now may sound a little... ungentlemanly, it really makes sense. It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death..."

Chen Xu smiled.

"Third uncle, you are joking. How can I, who has only been to school for a few days, know what is elegant and what is not? These are just my own opinions."

Yan Bugui obviously thought that Chen Xu had suffered a lot over the years and finally gained a lot of insights into life.

"You were also a miserable person in the beginning, but you don't have to be too pessimistic. People should always look forward..."

Chen Xu felt confused. Why was he so miserable? Are you kidding me?

As a time traveler with cheats, I now have a beautiful wife and a lot of wealth, so why am I so miserable?

Except for the time when he almost starved to death at the beginning, he really didn't feel any suffering since he came here. The most painful thing was when he and Lin Chan were studying the great cause of human reproduction. It was really tiring. It's been so many times, and he still...

When the few of them returned to the courtyard, the residents were still outside in groups of three or four discussing what had happened.

Everyone has to work during the day, and the only time they can relax is after dinner in the evening.

If they have dinner on ordinary days, those who have wives can do something beneficial to their physical and mental health, while those who don’t have wives can only hug their pillows and go to bed early. This is a rare opportunity, so naturally they will gossip outside for a while.

Chen Xu looked at Xu Damao's house in the central courtyard. It was pitch black. It was obvious that this guy didn't come back today.

He had no mood to chat, so he exchanged a few words with everyone and went back to the backyard.

When I entered the room, I glanced at Sha Zhu's room, which was also pitch black. I wondered where this guy had gone. I hadn't seen him all night, and the deaf old lady was also nowhere to be seen.

It's dark outside at this time.

Chen Xu didn't plan to make any more noise and went straight home.

In a remote alley in Sijiu City, Sha Zhu was resting at a corner with a deaf old lady on his back.

"Grandma, is it necessary to be in such a hurry? It's only a few hours now. There are still a few hours before the black market opens."

The deaf old lady looked at Sha Zhu helplessly.

If it weren't for her disability, she really wouldn't want to bring this guy out. He never stopped talking.

This is the last chance she gives to Sha Zhu. It depends on whether this guy can seize it.

"Okay, listen to me."

The deaf old lady tapped the silly pillar with her cane before continuing.

"Although you still have a job at the steel mill, you can't expect to be promoted. In addition, in this year, you can't expect to make any extra money by cooking outside. So, I thought about it and decided to introduce you to a job that can earn you some extra money."

Sha Zhu's eyes lit up and he said that his grandmother loved him the most and would never be angry with him.

But he didn't see the helplessness in the deaf old woman's eyes.

She went back and thought about it again and again, and felt that it was too early to give up on Sha Zhu, but it was not suitable for him to be hooked by the Jia family. So, she planned to arouse Sha Zhu's ambition to work. When Sha Zhu had money, he could find any woman...

It doesn’t mean that career is the backbone of a man. With a career, everything else is just clouds.

The deaf old lady did have some connections. She just happened to know an old acquaintance who was also a well-known figure in Beijing before. He had successfully cleaned up his money and was now running a black market business, living a carefree life.

The deaf old lady had done him a favor when she was young, so it wasn't a big problem to introduce someone to him. She didn't ask the other party to value Sha Zhu too much, but just to take proper care of him.
