Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

Seeing that he couldn't wake up Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai could only shake his head helplessly, thinking that this kid really can sleep!

But he had no choice but to slowly close his eyes and continue to sleep. Sha Zhu, on the other hand, slept like a dead pig, not moving at all.

It was not until the next morning that the sunlight shone into the ward through the window and sprinkled on the faces of Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu.

Yi Zhonghai slowly opened his eyes and felt a feeling of hunger rising in his heart.

He turned his head to look at Shazhu next to him and found that he was still sleeping soundly, with saliva flowing onto the pillow.

At this time, a middle-aged woman came in with breakfast. Seeing that Yi Zhonghai had woken up, she smiled and said, "Zhonghai, are you awake? How do you feel?"

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said with a smile: "Much better, but I'm a little hungry."

The lady put breakfast on the table, then walked to the bedside, gently pushed Sha Zhu, and shouted: "Zhu Zi, get up, the sun is shining on your butt!"

After being woken up, Sha Zhu stretched, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and asked, "Auntie, when did you come? How come I didn't know?"

The aunt looked at Sha Zhu's confused look and replied with a smile: "I came here early this morning to bring breakfast to you two. Zhuzi, did you sleep well last night?"

Sha Zhu scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly, "Auntie, I came last night and paid the fee, and then I stayed in the ward. Uncle didn't wake up, and then I fell asleep without knowing it.

Luckily this bed is empty, otherwise I would not have been able to sleep well last night, hehe."

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, the aunt secretly sighed in her heart. She had expected that Sha Zhu was unreliable. If she really couldn't find anyone else to help, she wouldn't let Sha Zhu take care of her old man.

She looked at Sha Zhu and said softly, "Okay, Zhuzi, you worked hard last night. It's getting late now, so have breakfast and go to work. By the way, ask for leave for your uncle."

"No problem, uncle. Are you feeling better?"

"Much better, Zhuzi, thank you for coming to take care of me so late at night."

"Hey, you're seriously injured, I should take care of you, isn't that what I should do? I'm glad you're okay."

"Well, you are thoughtful. It's getting late now. You should hurry up and finish your meal and go to work. Don't be late. And please keep my matter here a secret for the time being."

"No problem. I'll be leaving first. Uncle, come to the factory to find me if you have any questions."

"Okay, go ahead."

Sha Zhu took two steamed buns and left the hospital, walking towards the steel mill in a foolish manner.

After Sha Zhu left, Yi Zhonghai was ready to pick up the steamed bread and start eating, but when he was about to use his hands, he found that both of his hands were wrapped in bandages, and he felt excruciating pain when he exerted force.

When the aunt saw this, she knew that the man must have been hurt by the wounds on his hands, so she hurriedly began to explain.

"Zhong Hai, don't worry. Let me tell you, the doctor said yesterday that your hands and lower body were hit hard. The injuries are quite serious, but if you have surgery in time, you can recover.

I went back home last night to ask the old lady to raise money for your surgery, that's why I didn't come to accompany you."

When Yi Zhonghai heard what the old lady said, he felt an indescribable grief in his heart.

He knew very well that the aunt had definitely not told him the truth, and this heart-wrenching pain was definitely not fake.

Even if the operation is successful, he will never be able to recover to his original state. Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai's hatred for Liu Haizhong became stronger.

Originally, he had doubts about whether Liu Haizhong dared to do anything to him, but now it seems that Liu Haizhong does have the courage to take such extreme measures.

Now, his hands are useless, and even his vitals are almost losing sensation. Only the occasional severe pain reminds him of its existence.

Yi Zhonghai was certain that it was Liu Haizhong who had done something to him. Liu Haizhong must have seen that his house had been robbed and his wealth had been lost, so he wanted to take this opportunity to defeat him.

Liu Haizhong's methods this time are extremely cruel. Not only does he want to destroy his own hands, but he also wants to cut off his future path to promotion.

Once his skills can no longer improve, or even show signs of regression, the opportunity in his bangs will come.

Yi Zhonghai knew very well that the reason he was able to surpass Liu Haizhong both in the courtyard and the steel rolling mill was not only because he had the support of the deaf old lady, but also the most important thing was that Yi Zhonghai's skills were better than Liu Haizhong's, and he was improving faster than Liu Haizhong.

But now, the situation has changed. Although his relationship with Liu Haizhong has always been bad, he has never worried about what the other party can do to him.

After all, he has superb skills and rapid progress to back him up, which are advantages that Liu Haizhong cannot achieve.

However, now that there was a problem with his hand, everything was different.

He understood that it would be almost impossible to continue suppressing Liu Haizhong technically in the future.

The deaf old lady's status as a martyr's relative has lost its effect, Jia Zhang has been imprisoned for three years for committing a crime, and Sha Zhu dare not easily beat anyone up, because Zhou Jin and others will resolutely call the police. As for Jia Dongxu, it is difficult to entrust him with important tasks at present.

As a result, Yi Zhonghai found that there seemed to be no one around him he could rely on.

In contrast, Liu Haizhong's side was full of talented people. He had three sons, especially the eldest son Liu Guangqi, who not only became a technician in the steel rolling mill, but also Liu Haizhong himself was promoted to a seventh-level forger, which was a great success.

In this situation, the disparity in strength between the two sides is obvious.

No wonder Liu Haizhong chose this moment to attack him. It was obviously a well-considered decision.

But fortunately, Liu Haizhong was too nervous at the time and didn't even put on the sack properly, so he showed up and let me see his face. Now let's see how you can escape.

Suddenly Yi Zhonghai thought of the salary advance he had received from the factory and the money he had borrowed, and hurriedly asked the aunt to reach into his pocket.

The aunt felt a little puzzled, but she still began to search Yi Zhonghai's pockets carefully. She searched all the pockets but found nothing.

Yi Zhonghai didn't know whether he should be happy or sad at this moment. That was his family's living expenses for September and October. If he couldn't get it back, he really didn't know how to live in the future.

But Yi Zhonghai changed his mind and decided that the money must have been taken by Liu Haizhong. If Liu Haizhong kept the money at home, then we would have physical evidence. The money was packed in envelopes specially used by the steel rolling mill.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai really hoped that Liu Haizhong did not spend the money, but took it home and hid it.

An old lady standing by watched her husband's expression change, not knowing what to say, so she just stood by.

A few minutes later, Yi Zhonghai finished his fantasy and came back to his senses.

The lady hurriedly asked, "Zhong Hai, why did you ask me to look through your pockets just now? Were you looking for the salary you received in advance from the factory?"

When the aunt said this, her voice was trembling. If this was true, how would they live in the future?

Yi Zhonghai knew what the aunt was worried about. He couldn't let his camp get in chaos now, and he had to resolve this matter first.

"It's okay. I had a lot of work yesterday and didn't have time to get an advance on my salary. But I borrowed a dozen dollars from a co-worker yesterday, and it seems that someone has taken it away."

Hearing that it was not an advance salary, the aunt was relieved.

When Yi Zhonghai thought about the money again, he felt much better. Although he had suffered a heavy loss, if he could take this opportunity to blackmail Liu Haizhong, or send him directly to jail, it seemed that he would not lose out.

But the most important thing at the moment is to fill my stomach. I can’t do it myself, so I can only ask an old lady to feed me some steamed buns.

Yi Zhonghai finished eating three steamed buns and drank a large glass of water with the help of an old lady. Only then did he feel better.

Yi Zhonghai leaned back on the bed and said to the aunt, "Wife, pack these up and go back to bring the old lady here. Ask the hospital to call the police."

The lady asked in confusion, "Zhong Hai, someone called the police yesterday. The police sent you here, and they told me to have the hospital call them after you wake up."

Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "Okay, then you can ask the hospital to notify the police station first, and then go back to pick up the old lady. I have something important to discuss with her."

The lady asked worriedly, "Okay, I'll be there right away. Is it okay for you to go alone?"

Yi Zhonghai comforted her, "Don't worry, there are doctors and nurses in the hospital. There is no place safer than here. I will call them if I have any problems."

The lady nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go first." Then she started packing her things and prepared to leave the ward.

Yi Zhonghai looked at the back of the aunt, thinking about the next plan in his heart. He knew that this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

About ten minutes later, the older policeman from yesterday came to Yi Zhonghai's ward with two younger policemen.

The older police officer spoke first: "Master Yi, how do you feel now?"

Yi Zhonghai quickly straightened up and then spoke.

"Comrade Public Security, I am fine for now. Except for my hands and a certain part of my body, there is no major problem with the rest of my body."

"That's good. Now that you're awake, I'll start questioning you about the incident yesterday where you were put in a sack and beaten and ended up in the hospital. I hope you can tell us all the information you know without reservation."

"I see. I had some important clues to tell you."

"Oh, what clue? Tell me quickly."

"When I was put into the sack yesterday, the man was probably nervous and didn't put the sack on tightly. I saw the face through a gap."

"Who is that person? Do you know him?"

"Comrade Gong'an, that man is Liu Haizhong from the backyard of our courtyard. He is the second uncle in charge of our courtyard, and I am the first uncle. We have always had many conflicts.

Moreover, our house was robbed a few days ago and all our belongings were stolen. This case is in charge of He Dong, the deputy director of your police station. You can ask him.

I went to the steel mill yesterday to get an advance on next month's salary, and I also borrowed more than 50 yuan from my fellow workers. I put them in a special envelope for the steel mill, and he must have taken it away yesterday."

The older police officer never expected that there would be such an unexpected surprise. If what Yi Zhonghai said was true, then the case would be solved immediately.

"Master Yi, can you take responsibility for what you said? You should know that perjury is also subject to legal liability."

"Comrade Gong'an, I know. I can guarantee it on my reputation. It was Liu Haizhong who hit me yesterday."

"Okay, since you are so determined, please sign this transcript first."

Before the older policeman could finish his words, they saw Yi Zhonghai's hands wrapped in bandages. He couldn't even put his fingerprints on the document, let alone sign. This really stumped the policemen.

At this time Yi Zhonghai spoke.

"Comrade Public Security, I can guarantee that everything I said is true. My wife will be here soon. Can I ask her to sign this transcript for me?"

The three police officers whispered to each other and felt that there was no other way, so they agreed.

"Okay, then we'll wait for your wife to sign."

After waiting for almost half an hour, an old lady finally came over, supporting a deaf lady.

The older policeman quickly took the transcript to the old lady, explained the situation to her, and asked her to sign and put her fingerprints on it.

After dealing with these matters, the older policeman said a few words to Yi Zhonghai and left.
