Siheyuan: I have Lingquan Space and Bistro

Chapter 284: Things are about to end

Yi Zhonghai stood in the middle of the yard and nodded to Jia Dongxu with a serious look. His action was like dropping a huge rock into the calm lake, instantly causing discussions among the people around him.

"I thought Yi Zhonghai was too stubborn to help the Jia family." An old lady said slowly. Although her voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone. The old lady was wearing an old dark blue cotton jacket, her hair was a little messy and tied behind her head, and her face was full of traces of time. She frowned slightly, and her eyes showed a hint of doubt and confusion.

"Me too. Just now, Jia Zhang wanted him to help, but he refused." The others also nodded in agreement. The speaker was a middle-aged man wearing a gray Zhongshan suit and holding a pipe. There was a gleam of curiosity in his eyes, as if he was thinking about the reason for Yi Zhonghai's change of attitude.

Originally, everyone in the courtyard thought that Yi Zhonghai would not interfere in the affairs of the Jia family today. After all, when Jia Zhang asked for help just now, Yi Zhonghai's attitude was so firm and indifferent. However, now he got involved, which surprised everyone.

The third aunt leaned close to Yan Bugui's ear and whispered, "Old man, do you think this Jia Dongxu is really the son of Old Jia?" There was a hint of doubt and curiosity in the third aunt's voice. Her eyes flashed with an inquiring light, as if she wanted to get a definite answer from Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui frowned slightly, thinking that Yi Zhonghai's attitude was as if Jia Dongxu was his own son. He pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know." Yan Bugui was full of doubts. He didn't understand why Yi Zhonghai cared so much about Jia Dongxu. In his opinion, Yi Zhonghai's behavior was really abnormal.

At this time, Director Wang stood in a corner of the yard with a stern face. He was wearing a neat grey cadre uniform and his hair was combed meticulously. His eyes revealed a kind of majesty and decisiveness, which made people dare not disobey his orders easily. "Jia Dongxu, Jia Zhangshi, go pack your clothes now. Follow us later." Director Wang said coldly, his voice echoed in the silent yard, making people shudder.

Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu nodded helplessly, then turned around and returned home. They looked a little lonely and helpless, as if at this moment, they had lost all their support.

Qin Huairu was taking care of the children at home. She was wearing a simple blue cotton jacket with her hair neatly combed behind her head. Her face was pretty, but her eyes were full of fatigue and worry. The children were around her, some were playing, some were crying. Qin Huairu coaxed the children softly, and looked out the window from time to time, feeling uneasy.

She also heard what happened outside. She knew that a major change had happened at home. Her heart was filled with fear and helplessness, not knowing what the future would be like. "Dongxu..." Qin Huairu called Jia Dongxu's name softly, with a tremor in her voice. Her tears flowed down involuntarily, like a flood that could not be controlled.

"Cry, cry, cry, you just know how to cry!" Jia Zhang came to Qin Huairu with a vicious look. Her eyes were full of anger and dissatisfaction, as if Qin Huairu was the root of all these misfortunes. Jia Zhang pinched Qin Huairu's waist fiercely, causing her face to twist in pain. Qin Huairu gritted her teeth, endured the pain, and dared not make a sound. She knew that at this time, any resistance would only make things worse.

Seeing this, Jia Dongxu said helplessly, "Mom, Director Wang is still waiting outside. If you delay here any longer, Director Wang will blame you and it will be troublesome." Jia Dongxu's voice was full of helplessness and anxiety. He knew that now was not the time to lose his temper. They had to pack up their things as soon as possible and follow Director Wang to leave. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.

After hearing what Jia Dongxu said, Jia Zhang suddenly panicked. She let go of his hand and went to pack her things while cursing. She originally wanted Qin Huairu to help her pack, but she thought that she had to bring some money with her and was worried that Qin Huairu would see her coffin book, so she went to pack it herself.

While packing her things, Jia Zhang kept muttering to herself.
