Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

Hearing what her wife said, Jia Zhang waved her hand nonchalantly and said:

"Don't worry about it. If our family is short of money in the future, we can ask Yi Zhonghai for it."

Qin Huairu just felt that her mother-in-law might be hysterical. Even if they were master and disciple, it was impossible for them to give so unconditionally.

"But mom, although Uncle Yi is Dongxu's master, he can't always support our family."

"What do you know? Yi Zhonghai is Dongxu's master. As the saying goes, a disciple is half a son. Yi Zhonghai accepted Dongxu as his disciple just to provide for him in his old age.

Now that Dongxu is in trouble, Yi Zhonghai wants to distance himself from the matter? No way! If he doesn't give me the money, I will spread the word everywhere that Yi Zhonghai only cares about money and not his disciples.

I don't know him well enough. He values ​​his reputation more than anything else. Anyway, Dongxu is his apprentice. When he dies, all his things will belong to us. So let's just take it as an advance request."

After hearing what Jia Zhang said, Yi Zhonghai felt his palms and backs of his hands go cold.

At this moment, he leaned against the wall with his hands clenched tightly, and his body couldn't help shaking with excitement.

If you are honest with yourself, although he had some calculations towards Jia Dongxu, his efforts over the years were also real.

Unexpectedly, the Jia family just wanted to eat up their own family.

Now she has to support the disabled Jia Dongxu by herself.

Yi Zhonghai felt as if his heart had fallen into an icy cave.

He suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around and tiptoed out of the ward.

Inside the ward, Qin Huairu saw her mother-in-law talking louder and louder and hurriedly said to stop her:

"Mom, you still said it. If Uncle Yi heard this, he would definitely hate our family."

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Anyway, he's not here now, and he won't know even if I tell him."

Jia Zhang complained a few words and then didn't mention it again.

This kind of tactic of breaking off relations must be used only as a last resort.

Yi Zhonghai returned to the ward after he had adjusted his mood. Seeing that Yi Zhonghai had been away for so long, Qin Huairu couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Uncle Yi, why did you take so long?"

"Oh, my waist just happened to be uncomfortable recently, so I went to make an appointment for a check-up. How is Dongxu? Did the doctor tell me how he is recovering?"

Yi Zhonghai is indeed an old actor, his face was full of concern for Jia Dongxu while he spoke.

"The doctor said that the recovery is going well. At this rate, he will be able to be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate next week."

Yi Zhonghai glanced at Jia Dongxu who was sleeping on the hospital bed. At this moment, he extremely regretted accepting Jia Dongxu as his apprentice.

I regretted not listening to the deaf old lady.

Now I have found myself such a huge burden that I can't get rid of it.

What Jia Zhang said was right. Yi Zhonghai really attached great importance to his reputation.

Especially since he is now an eighth-level worker in the factory.

He has a high status in the factory and is respected.

Although his reputation was damaged because of the embezzlement of child support, that incident has now gradually faded from the sight of people in the hospital.

I never thought that an eighth-level union like mine would be controlled by a shrew like Jia Zhang.

Just as Yi Zhonghai was struggling in his mind, there was a knock on the door outside the ward.

It turned out that it was the nurse who came in to change Jia Dongxu's dressing.

After the nurse changed the medicine, she took some more medicine and gave it to Qin Huairu and said:

"Give the patient this anti-inflammatory medicine when he wakes up. His wound hasn't healed yet. And since it's hot now, you have to keep the wound clean. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if the wound gets infected."

When Yi Zhonghai saw the medicine the nurse took out, he couldn't take his eyes off it.

He looked at the nurse and asked:

"Nurse, I want to ask if Dongxu needs to take this medicine all the time?"

"It will take about a month. He has a penetrating wound. Even if the wound on the outside heals, there is still a wound inside. If the recovery is slow, he will have to take the medicine for two months."

Eat for two months?

Yi Zhonghai looked at the medicine in the nurse's hand and fell into deep thought.

That medicine is not similar to the medicine the doctor prescribed for me today, but it looks exactly the same.

Anti-inflammatory medicine. . Wound infection. .

A certain thought flashed uncontrollably through Yi Zhonghai's mind.

Yi Zhonghai was also shocked by the idea.

He turned his head and looked at Jia Dongxu lying on the bed again.

A complicated look flashed in his eyes.

After Jia Dongxu felt better, the Jia family and Yi Zhonghai took turns coming to the hospital to take care of Jia Dongxu.

Director Yang was relieved to know that Jia Dongxu was not dead.

After knowing the relationship between Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu, he specially approved Yi Zhonghai to take a few days off to help take care of Jia Dongxu.

After lying in the hospital for half a month, Jia Dongxu returned to the courtyard to rest.

In order to prevent the Jia family from getting attached to him, Yi Zhonghai went to the factory to apply for work injury compensation for him.

He took great pains to get Jia Dongxu's work injury compensation at the highest level.

In total, I lost half a year’s salary.

He originally thought that with so much money, the Jia family would no longer keep an eye on his purse.

But he underestimated the greed of the Jia family.

Or it could be said that Jia Zhang was greedy.

Jia Zhang went directly to the factory to collect the money without telling Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu.

Because Jia Zhang's small treasury has run out of money.

She has to take two or three bottles of painkillers every month, and no amount of pension is enough to cover it.

She kept all the three hundred yuan compensation to buy painkillers.

But Jia Dongxu needs more supplements to recover from this injury.

Once the money is in Jia Zhang's pocket, it's hard to get it out.

The same goes for my own son.

So Jia Zhang set her sights on Yi Zhonghai.

"Dongxu's master! You can't just ignore Dongxu!"

When Yi Zhonghai came home from get off work after a tiring day, Jia Zhang ran to his house and cried and complained.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Jia Zhang with a headache and asked:

"Sister Jia, what's wrong with you?"

"Master Dongxu, you know Dongxu's current situation. And you also know the situation of our family. We are really struggling to make ends meet."

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked:

"Sister Jia, didn't I just apply for work injury compensation for you last week? Together with the nutrition fee, it's almost 300 yuan, right? Now you tell me you can't make ends meet?"

"That little money is not enough. You know Dongxu's current situation. He has to spend money on food, drink, and toilet every day."

Jia Zhang lied with her eyes open. Anyway, her purpose of coming here today was only one, to ask Yi Zhonghai for money.

"Sister Jia, do you believe what you said? More than 300 yuan! Dongxu has only been here for less than a month, right?"

"You ask me for money, but I don't have any anyway. Dongxu is your master, but he is your apprentice. As the saying goes, an apprentice is half a son. Are you going to ignore him?"

Jia Zhang simply started to make a fuss.

Anyway, she is the kind of person who is willing to sacrifice anything. It's just her face. At worst, she can just give it up.
