With the departure of the doctors, police officers and nurses, Yi Zhonghai and an old lady were the only ones left in the ward.

An old lady sat beside the bed, looking at the unconscious Yi Zhonghai, feeling very sad. Her husband was fine when he went out in the morning, but now he has become like this. How could she not feel sad?

The most important thing is that the bill requires a payment of twenty-three yuan, and the follow-up treatment will cost even more. Their family has been robbed of all their money, and the remaining twenty yuan has been almost spent.

Now Auntie really doesn’t know what to do. There is no money at home, and she doesn’t know whether Yi Zhonghai has received an advance on his wages from the steel mill. Of course, Auntie now hopes that Yi Zhonghai has not received an advance on his wages from the steel mill.

Because she had just touched Yi Zhonghai's pocket and found no money. If he had already received an advance on his salary, it would mean that if the murderer was not caught, her family would have no income next month.

Moreover, they have to bear Yi Zhonghai's surgery fees, medical expenses and nutrition expenses. It's so much money that the aunt feels like she's about to collapse just thinking about it. She doesn't know why her life has become like this.

The aunt talked to Yi Zhonghai for a few words, and seeing that Yi Zhonghai still hadn't woken up, she went back to the courtyard. She had to find the deaf old lady to help her make a decision.

Just when the aunt rushed back to the courtyard, the news that Yi Zhonghai was put in a sack and beaten into the hospital had spread throughout the courtyard, and even Zhou Jin, who was in the backyard, knew about it.

Zhou Jin was in a particularly good mood today because his carefully planned plan was progressing in an orderly manner. This sense of accomplishment made him feel that all his efforts were worthwhile.

So he decided to add a hearty meat dish to dinner to reward himself and his family.

After all, it was now known that he was responsible for supplying grain to the steel mills, which meant that his income was considerable, and he could have enjoyed a delicious meal of meat every day without causing any objection.

If there were really some ungrateful people who dared to cause trouble for him on this basis, once the truth came to light, would he be able to withstand the anger of more than 10,000 workers at the steel mill?

In addition, Zhou Jin knew very well that her sister Zhou Xin was in the growth and development period and needed adequate nutrition to support her physical development.

To this end, he resolutely raised the family's food standards to ensure that Zhou Xin could often taste delicious meat. Of course, Zhou Jin would also try his best to avoid making meat dishes with strong smells. It was better to be careful about everything.

After finishing her homework, Zhou Xin came to the kitchen following the smell. Her eyes were fixed on the delicious food in the pot, and her drool was about to flow out.

When Zhou Jin saw this, he quickly took a small bowl and put two pieces of braised pork in it and let Zhou Xin eat first.

Zhou Xin hurriedly took the bowl and chopsticks and came to the restaurant with great satisfaction.

At the same time, an old lady ignored other people's gossip and walked straight past the crowd to the backyard.

As soon as she entered the deaf old lady's house, the aunt couldn't control her emotions and spoke to the deaf old lady with sobs.

"Old lady, Zhong Hai is in trouble. He is in the hospital now and hasn't woken up yet. You must help us."

The deaf old lady was also shocked when she heard this. How could something happen out of the blue and she had to be hospitalized?

However, the deaf old lady survived the war after all, and she quickly calmed herself down, then took the aunt's hand and asked.

"Xue Lian, don't be anxious. Tell me slowly, what happened in Zhong Hai?"

The old lady who was held by the deaf old lady seemed to have really found her backbone, and her heart gradually calmed down.

"Old lady, Li the bricklayer from the next door yard came to me just now and told me that my Jia Zhonghai was put in a sack and knocked unconscious in Dongmianhua Hutong. The police have already sent him to the hospital. They asked me to go there quickly.

When I heard this, I was completely stunned and rushed to the hospital.

After I arrived at the hospital, I waited for half an hour before Zhonghai came out of the emergency room. The doctor said that his life was not in danger, but his hands and lower body were seriously injured and he needed to be hospitalized for a period of time.

The upfront payment alone was over twenty dollars, and I dare not even think about the subsequent surgery fees, medicine fees, and nutrition fees.

Now my family is in this situation again, I really don’t know what to do, so I came to you for help to come up with an idea, to think of a way to save Zhonghai. "

"Okay, don't worry, I already know what happened, and I will definitely find a way.

Well, you take me to Zhuzi first, and I'll ask him to take the money to the hospital and pay the bill first. Then I'll take you to Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui and ask them to hold a donation meeting so that everyone can help out.

No matter what, Zhong Hai must first have the surgery and recover. "

"Okay, ma'am, thank you."

"Silly girl, you are still being polite to me. Help me over here quickly."

Sha Zhu had already returned home at this time. He had been going out late and coming back late recently, and he had not met Yi Zhonghai for several days. He also had not seen Yi Zhonghai come to see him, so Sha Zhu was no longer worried.

Sha Zhu now has dinner at the factory before coming home. When he gets home, he just drinks a little wine, eats some peanuts, and then goes to bed.

Today, Sha Zhu also learned about Yi Zhonghai's situation in the Intermediate Court. He was a little confused and didn't know whether he should go to the hospital to see Yi Zhonghai.

On the one hand, since He Daqing ran away, Yi Zhonghai has taken good care of Sha Zhu, and the long-term brainwashing has made Yi Zhonghai occupy a relatively important position in Sha Zhu's heart.

But on the other hand, Sha Zhu was very sad because Yi Zhonghai had used him to restrain the Jia family before, and Yi Zhonghai did not give him any explanation afterwards, which made Sha Zhu feel a little uncomfortable.

Just then, a middle-aged woman helped a deaf old lady open the door and walked in. Sha Zhu recognized the person as his own grandmother at a glance, and he hurried forward to greet her.

"Grandma, why are you here so late?" Sha Zhu asked with concern.

The deaf old lady knew that Sha Zhu must have known about Yi Zhonghai, so she didn't intend to hide it and said directly, "Zhu Zi, you should have heard about your uncle's affairs."

Sha Zhu nodded: "Well, I heard some things in the middle courtyard when I came back. I just went to the uncle's house to ask the aunt what happened, but I couldn't find her. I guess she might be here with you."

The aunt sighed and said, "Zhu Zi, I just came back from the hospital. Your uncle's condition is a bit serious. I really can't make up my mind, so I hurried to the backyard to discuss with the old lady."

Sha Zhu frowned and asked, "How is the old man now?"

The deaf old lady said: "The situation is very bad. He had not woken up when I left. The doctor said that his hands and lower body were seriously injured and he needed surgery immediately."

After a moment of silence, Sha Zhu said, "How much will the surgery cost?"

The old lady replied: "I don't know. I didn't have time to ask the doctor before I ran back to see the old lady."

The deaf old lady said: "Zhu Zi, now Zhong Hai's family has suffered such a disaster. If you don't help them, it will be difficult for them to get over this hurdle."

Sha Zhu: "Old lady, auntie, I will definitely help, as long as you tell me and as long as I can do it, then I will never refuse."

The deaf old lady said: "Zhu Zi, I knew you were a kind-hearted person. Your uncle's house and mine were robbed, and your uncle's money in the bank was taken away, so now both of our families are penniless.

Otherwise, I would definitely not come to find you. I don't trust those people in the Jia family. Now you are the only one left. Your uncle still owes the hospital more than 20 yuan. I want you to take the money to the hospital to pay the bill first, and then help take care of him in the hospital.

Your aunt and I will go to Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to have a meeting to donate money to Zhonghai. No matter what, Zhonghai must be cured."

Auntie: "Zhu Zi, my family is really out of options, otherwise I wouldn't be able to ask for this. You must help our family. Now, apart from you, I really don't know who else is willing to help us."

Sha Zhu: "Old lady, Auntie, don't worry, I will go there with the money now. Anyway, the working hours are quite late, so I will help take care of the uncle in the hospital. When you are done here, come and take my place."

Auntie: "Zhu Zi, thank you so much."

The deaf old lady said: "Zhu Zi, I knew I was right. Let's act quickly. Xue Lian will help him find Liu Haizhong."

After the deaf old lady finished speaking, she went back to the backyard with the aunt. Sha Zhu drank all the remaining wine on the table, ate a few peanuts, took the money and rushed to the hospital.

Liu Haizhong was eating scrambled eggs at home at this time, in a very good mood. It was not just that he was in a good mood now, but he had been in a very good mood in the past few days.

There was no way. Liu Haizhong's arch-enemy Yi Zhonghai had suffered a series of misfortunes in the past few days. First, all his family property was stolen, and now he was beaten and sent to the hospital. How could Liu Haizhong not be happy?

Just then, an old lady came in, supporting a deaf old lady.

When Liu Haizhong saw that it was them, his face turned unhappy. Even if he was stupid, he knew why these two people came here.

"Old lady, Auntie, what's the matter with you guys coming here at dinner time?"

The deaf old lady didn't say much.

"Haizhong, you should have known about Zhonghai's affairs. You should also be aware of his family's current situation, so I won't waste any more words. I came here this time just to find you and Yan Bugui. We will hold a general meeting in the courtyard later to call on everyone to donate to Zhonghai."

Liu Haizhong didn't want to help his enemy, especially something that would harm others and benefit himself, so he immediately thought about how to refuse the deaf old lady.

Liu Guangqi, who was standing by, knew what his father meant, so he stood up and spoke.

"Old lady, this donation conference cannot be held just like that. Director Wang has said many times that we must report to the street office in advance and get approval before we can hold a donation conference in the courtyard.

If you let my dad hold a donation meeting directly like this, and someone reports it to the street office, my dad's boss will be in trouble."

Liu Haizhong: "Yes, old lady, Lao Yi was removed from his position because of this. You can't let me make the same mistake again.

I think, why don't you go home first, I will discuss it with Old Yan later, and report to the street office early tomorrow morning. As long as the street office agrees, we will hold this donation meeting immediately."

Auntie: "Uncle, it's too late. Lao Yi was seriously injured this time. The doctor said that if he doesn't have surgery in time, it will most likely affect his future work and life."

The second uncle: "Auntie, you have to understand us. No matter what, we have to follow the rules. Otherwise, if I am dismissed because of your family's Lao Yi, who will speak for me?"

The deaf old lady said, "Haizhong, how about this? You go and notify everyone to hold a meeting now and tell them that I organized it. If anything goes wrong, I will bear all the responsibility. Is that ok?"

When Liu Haizhong heard the deaf old lady say this, he felt that it was enough. After all, it was not organized by him, and even if they were discovered, he could not be blamed, so he was prepared to agree.

When Liu Guangqi saw that Liu Haizhong was frightened by a few words from the deaf old lady, he sighed in his heart. No matter what, this was his own father and he had to help him.

"Old lady, you are just making empty promises. If something really happens and you don't admit it, what will happen? My dad is the second uncle, shouldn't he bear the responsibility?"

The deaf old lady: "Liu Guangqi, you are so brave to talk to me like that. Is this the kind of person I am?"

Liu Guangqi: "Old lady, don't scare me here. My father doesn't ignore the uncle's business, but we have to follow the regulations. As long as the situation is true, I believe the street office will not make things difficult for us.

At most it will be one day late, it won’t have any impact.”

Liu Haizhong: "Yes, old lady, even if you are willing to take all the responsibility, I am the second uncle, as long as something goes wrong, it is all my responsibility.

Guangqi is right. It will only take a day. It won't take too long. Do you have anything else to do?"

Seeing their tough attitude, the deaf old lady had to accept the reality. She shook her head and let the lady help her leave.

After seeing the deaf old lady and the others leave, Liu Haizhong's face showed uncontrollable excitement and excitement. He widened his eyes and stared closely at Liu Guangqi in front of him, his eyes full of pride and pride.

"Son!" Liu Haizhong patted Liu Guangqi on the shoulder and said with deep emotion: "My hard work in educating him over the years has not been in vain! Look how well you behaved today! How dare you not give face to the deaf old lady like this? She has always been an authoritative figure in the courtyard!"

Liu Guangqi responded to his father's compliment with a smile, but he felt a little skeptical in his heart.

Over the years, he has experienced a lot outside, his horizons have been broadened a lot, and he has a deeper understanding of the people and things in the yard.

Although the deaf old lady once held a high status, her true face was gradually revealed as time went by.

Moreover, Zhou Jin's appearance directly broke through the veil of the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai, letting everyone know that they are also ordinary people, just with more means than everyone else.

"Dad, don't worry too much." Liu Guangqi comforted him, "The deaf old lady is no longer as awe-inspiring as before. Her so-called majesty is just an illusion of the past. We don't have to obey her orders anymore."

Liu Haizhong nodded, secretly rejoicing in his heart. Now, he saw his son's growth and independence, and his heart was filled with relief.

This change in concept made Liu Guangqi begin to re-examine the people and things around him and gradually form his own values.

This conflict with the deaf old lady made him more determined in his position.

They are not ancestors or elders; at best they are just neighbors who live nearby.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Guangqi dared to speak to the deaf old lady like this.
