The discussions of the people in the hospital made Xu Fugui look ugly. What do you mean if he had sent Damao to the hospital earlier, everything would be fine? Wasn't it because Yi Zhonghai said that Damao was fine that he didn't take Damao to the hospital for examination? Now everyone blames him?

Besides, the root cause of the incident was Sha Zhu's beating, so he said with a gloomy face: "Old lady, I respect your age, not because I am afraid of you. According to what you said, is it my fault?"

The deaf old lady knew that she couldn't push Xu Fugui too far, or else it would be a disaster, so she said slowly, "Xiao Xu, no one wants to see something like this happen. Although Zhuzi was at fault back then, it was just a fight between children after all. It's hard to say who was right and who was wrong now. I think how about this, let Zhuzi pay for half of it, and let's just let it go."

Xu Fugui walked out with a gloomy face when he heard this. When the deaf old lady saw that Xu Fugui refused to compromise, she quickly shouted, "Xu Fugui, stop right there!"

Xu Fugui paused when he heard this. In fact, he didn't want to make a big deal out of this. Even if Sha Zhu went to jail, he wouldn't get much money. As for revenge on Sha Zhu? That was not as important as curing his son's illness.

Seeing Xu Fugui stop, the deaf old lady said slowly: "Xiao Xu, Zhuzi and Damao were still children back then. Even if you called the police, what could you do to Zhuzi? You could just educate him, lock him up for a while, and then pay him money. And Damao's medical treatment will cost a lot of money. How about you tell me a plan and we can work it out?"

Hearing this, Xu Fugui said in a deep voice: "Old lady, I am not an unreasonable person. Even if you asked Sha Zhu to compensate me with 4,000 yuan, I will not agree to a penny less!"

Hearing this, Sha Zhu said with a dark face: "You should call the police. Where can I get so much money?"

Xu Fugui was in a dilemma when he heard this and didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, Sha Zhu was still a minor at the time and it was hard to say how long he would be sentenced. Besides, his current goal was not to send Sha Zhu to jail, but to raise money for his son's medical treatment.

Yi Zhonghai knew from Xu Fugui's expression that he didn't really want to call the police, so he stepped forward and sighed, "Old Xu, there is a saying that enemies should be resolved rather than created. At the beginning, Sha Zhu was young and ignorant, so it was inevitable that he made some mistakes. It's not realistic for you to ask him to take so much money at once. You should take a step back."

Xu Fugui sneered upon hearing this, "Yi Zhonghai, don't come out and pretend to be a good person. You were one of the culprits back then. If you hadn't favored Sha Zhu, would things have gotten to this point? If you had been fair and let Sha Zhu take Damao to the hospital for treatment, would Damao have ended up like this? If Sha Zhu doesn't pay 4,000 yuan today, I will definitely send him to jail."

Yi Zhonghai's face turned red after hearing what Xu Fugui said. He was too biased at the beginning, but now he is no longer the boss and his reputation doesn't matter to him. Besides, Sha Zhu hardly interacts with him now, so he is not stupid enough to take out money to help Sha Zhu, so he took a step back silently.

Seeing Xu Fugui not bowing his head, the deaf old lady felt helpless. She couldn't just watch Sha Zhu squatting under the fence, so she sighed and said, "Okay, Xiao Xu, I'll accept the money on behalf of Sha Zhu."

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu said anxiously, "Old lady, why are you meddling in this? How can I have so much money?"

Qin Yanru was also very anxious. She looked at He Yushui helplessly. He Yushui thought about it and said, "Silly brother, I have one thousand here, how much money do you have?"

Hearing this, Sha Zhu smiled bitterly and said, "Yu Shui, there has been a famine in the past few years, and all the money has been used to buy food. There are only more than 200 yuan in the family. This is what your sister-in-law and I have saved recently."

He Yushui was also troubled. Should he borrow money from Brother Pingzi again? At this moment, the deaf old lady said, "Zhuzi, come back with me."

Xu Fugui stopped her and said, "Old lady, you haven't said when you will pay me."

The deaf old lady said in a deep voice: "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm just discussing the money with Zhuzi. Don't worry, with the old lady in charge, you won't lose a penny!" After that, she went back to the backyard with the help of Sha Zhu.

As soon as everyone saw that the problem was solved, they dispersed.

In the backyard, the deaf old lady’s house.

The deaf old lady trembled as she held out a box and said to Sha Zhu, "Zhu, this is my life savings. Take it for emergency use."

Sha Zhu took the box and opened it. There was a large stack of ten-yuan bills inside. He estimated that there were at least two thousand yuan. There were also two large yellow croakers at the bottom of the box.

Sha Zhu's eyes turned red and he said, "How can I do this, old lady? This is your life savings. I can't take it."

Originally, Sha Zhu thought that the deaf old lady was kind to him, and it was nothing to support an old lady, but he didn't expect that the deaf old lady could do this. It would be a lie to say that he was not touched.

The deaf old lady touched Silly Zhu's head kindly and said, "Silly Zhu, these things of the old lady will all be yours in the future. It's just a matter of time. You can use them first. Do you really want to stay at home? What about Yanru?"

After hearing this, Sha Zhu was silent for a while, took out the money, put the box containing the big yellow croaker back and said, "Old lady, I'll take the money first, and as for the big yellow croaker, you should keep it in the bottom of the box."

The deaf old lady smiled and said, "That's fine. There's about 2,600 yuan in money. You can use it first. As for the big yellow croaker, I'll keep it for you first."

When Sha Zhu returned home, he saw He Yushui coming over with a stack of money and said, "Brother Sha, this is 1,200 yuan. Take it first. If it doesn't work, I'll go borrow from Brother Pingzi."

Sha Zhu was touched when he heard this, and also felt ashamed for his negligence towards his sister, so he said ashamedly: "No, the old lady gave me 2,600, plus the 200 at home is enough for now."

Qin Yanru finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and looked at He Yushui and said, "Yushui, don't worry, your brother and I will definitely pay you back."

He Yushui didn't expect the deaf old lady to help Silly Brother so much, and the resentment towards the deaf old lady in her heart slowly dissipated. When she heard Qin Yanru say that she wanted to pay back the money, she quickly waved her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you saying this? We are a family."

Qin Yanru choked up with red eyes and said, "Yes, we are a family."

Sha Zhu gave four thousand yuan to Xu Fugui and asked him to write a letter of forgiveness before leaving the backyard.

After Sha Zhu left, Xu Damao said with a gloomy face, "Dad, are we just going to let it go like this? I won't accept this."

Xu Fugui sneered upon hearing this: "How is that possible? But that is your own business in the future. The most important thing right now is to cure your illness, otherwise our Xu family will be wiped out."

Xu Damao nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry. I believe in Pingzi's medical skills. As for Shazhu, I will slowly deal with him after I recover."

Xu Fugui frowned when he heard this and said, "I heard that He Yushui is Wang Xiuzhi's goddaughter?"

Xu Damao nodded and said, "Although Aunt Wang didn't say so, it's no different from being a goddaughter."

Xu Fugui pondered and said, "Be careful when you take revenge on Sha Zhu in the future. After all, He Yushui has a good relationship with the Lin family."

Xu Damao nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry, I know what's going on. I won't kill Sha Zhu to take revenge. After all, my disease can be cured."

After dinner, Xu Fugui and his son came to the west wing with the money.

Xu Fugui put the money on the table and said, "Pingzi, I don't know much about medicinal herbs either, so I won't bother you. Please help me buy the herbs."

How could Lin Ping not understand Xu Fugui's little thoughts? He smiled and said, "Uncle Xu, don't worry about Damao's illness. I will definitely cure him. You just wait to hold your grandson."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fugui's old face was so bright with smiles that he said, "Uncle Xu saw that you were something special when you were a child. I didn't expect that you would be so promising. Not only are you a powerful director, but you also have excellent medical skills. I'll leave Damao's illness in your hands." As he said this, he bowed to Lin Ping.

Lin Ping quickly helped Xu Fugui up and said, "Uncle Xu, what are you doing? Hurry up and get up. I will do my best to cure Damao."

After the Xu family father and son left, Lin Qingyan asked, "Brother Pingzi, did you know that Xu Damao couldn't have children? Why are you willing to treat him now?"

Lin Ping smiled and said, "I knew Xu Damao was infertile a long time ago, and I never thought of treating him. Xu Damao is a real mean person, but he saved Yaru. No matter what his purpose was, he saved Yaru's life, so I wanted to treat him. After all, we can't be ungrateful."

Lin Qingyan nodded and said, "Yes, that's true. If it wasn't for Xu Damao, then even if Ya Ru was saved, she wouldn't have survived given her personality. So Xu Damao is indebted to our family."

Lin Qingya was puzzled when she heard this: "Then why don't you just treat him directly? Why do you need so much money? Now it's bad luck for Shazhu."

Hearing this, Lin Ping smiled awkwardly and said, "I originally thought that Xu Damao couldn't mess around because he didn't have money, so that he and Qin Jingru wouldn't quarrel in the future, and the yard would be quieter. Who knew that Xu Fugui would take Xu Damao to the hospital for a checkup and cause such a scene."

Lin Qingya looked at the money on the table and asked, "What should we do with this money?"

Hearing this, Lin Ping chuckled and said, "You can keep it as pocket money."

Nine p.m.

In He Yushui's room, Lin Qingyan asked, "Yushui, how much money did you give your silly brother?"

He Yushui was startled when she heard this and said, "Sister-in-law, I gave my silly brother 1,200 yuan, what's wrong?"

Lin Qingyan counted out 1,200 yuan and handed it to He Yushui, saying, "Take this money. You will need it for your dowry when you get married. How long will it take for your silly brother to come to you?"

He Yushui quickly declined, "No, I can't take this money."

Lin Qingyan forced the money into He Yushui's hand and said, "This is what your brother Pingzi meant. If you don't want to, go talk to him yourself."

He Yushui's eyes turned red when she heard this and she said, "Sister-in-law, you and Brother Pingzi will spoil me like this."

Lin Qingyan smiled and said, "You are half of our Lin family, so it's only natural that I love you."

He Yushui's pretty face turned red when she heard this, and a strange emotion rushed into her heart. She lowered her head and said, "Sister-in-law..."

Because she was looking down, Lin Qingyan didn't notice anything unusual about He Yushui, so she smiled, said a few words, and then said goodbye and left.

Zhongyuan, Yi Zhonghai's house.

Yi Zhonghai tossed and turned on the kang, unable to sleep. What happened to Xu Damao today made him think a lot. The fact that he had no children in all these years might not be his wife's problem, but perhaps his own problem. If Xu Damao was really cured by Lin Ping, then maybe he could have a child. Thinking of this, he decided to secretly go to the hospital tomorrow to check his body to see if it was his problem.
