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

Sha Zhu lay on the ground, feeling pain all over his body, and was totally afraid to move. He lay there for nearly an hour before he slowly got up and limped towards the courtyard, holding on to the wall.

Sha Zhu endured the pain in his body and walked step by step. After an unknown amount of time, Sha Zhu finally saw a familiar scene. At this time, his body was covered with wounds and his stomach was growling with hunger.

Slowly, Sha Zhu's consciousness became a little fuzzy, but he didn't want Qin Huairu to see his miserable appearance. He thought that even if he was about to faint, he had to hold on until he got home.

So Sha Zhu used up his last breath and moved towards the gate of the courtyard. Finally, when Sha Zhu reached the gate, he could no longer hold on and fainted at the door.

Because the country had just been founded, there were still many enemy spies outside, so at ten o'clock every night, Yan Bugui would lock the gate of the courtyard, and open it early the next morning.

If someone has an emergency at night, of course they can knock on the door and ask Yan Bugui to open it.

At 6:30 in the morning, Yan Bugui got up, took out the key to unlock the door according to the normal procedure, pushed open the door and walked out to breathe some fresh air, and then went to the central courtyard to wash up.

But when Yan Bugui turned around, he saw a man covered in dust and with bruises on his face lying on the ground. Yan Bugui went forward to check and found out that the man was actually Sha Zhu, which scared Yan Bugui.

He hurried back to the courtyard, shouting all the way.

"Everyone come out and see, something's happened to Shazhu."

"Everyone come out and see, something's happened to Shazhu."

Yan Bugui shouted all the way to the central courtyard, waking up everyone in the yard.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai also heard Yan Bugui's voice. When he heard that something had happened to Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai was also panicked. He had just decided yesterday to focus on Sha Zhu, but today he had gotten into trouble.

Regardless of anything else now, Yi Zhonghai quickly stepped forward, grabbed Yan Bugui's hand, and asked anxiously.

"Old Yan, what's going on? What happened to Sha Zhu?"

"Old Yi, hurry to the gate. Sha Zhu is lying there. I don't know what happened."

Yi Zhonghai quickly ran to the gate and saw Sha Zhu lying on the ground with bruises all over his body, probably fainted.

Yi Zhonghai did not hesitate. He immediately turned around and rushed to the backyard. On the way, he went home and asked an old lady to take care of Sha Zhu first.

Then Yi Zhonghai came to the backyard and knocked directly on Zhou Jin's door.

Zhou Jin also woke up at this time. After all, Yan Bugui had just shouted in the yard for a long time that something happened to Sha Zhu, and he had been woken up long ago. Zhou Xin was sitting on the bed.

When he heard the knock on the door, Zhou Jin opened it directly. Seeing Yi Zhonghai standing at the door, Zhou Jin knew what he was going to do. Before Yi Zhonghai could speak, Zhou Jin spoke first.

"You don't have to say anything. I know you're here to borrow a bicycle. No problem. But let me make it clear first. If something happens to Shazhu later, don't come to trouble me."

After saying that, Zhou Jin pushed out the bicycle and handed it to Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai didn't know how to respond, so he could only say thank you and push his bike away.

When they arrived at the gate, Yi Zhonghai asked Yan Bugui to take two ropes, prepare to tie Sha Zhu to himself, and then go to the hospital.

Yan Bugui was originally planning to take the money, but after receiving a warning from Yi Zhonghai, he finally gave up. After all, this was a matter of life and death, and if he delayed treatment for a few cents, he would be committing a serious sin.

Yi Zhonghai asked Jia Dongxu to go to the steel rolling mill to ask for leave for himself and Sha Zhu, and then rode his bike to the hospital.

Sha Zhu was woken up halfway through the journey, but he was so sleepy, hungry, and aching all over that he had no strength to speak.

Yi Zhonghai pedaled his bicycle with all his strength and arrived at the Red Star Hospital in almost half the usual time. This is the affiliated hospital of the steel rolling mill, and the medical expenses of the factory workers are reimbursed.

Yi Zhonghai started shouting as soon as he entered the hospital.

"Doctor, doctor, someone has fainted here and is covered in wounds. Come and have a look."

Because it was very early, there were not many people in the hospital and it was relatively quiet. After Yi Zhonghai shouted, doctors and nurses came over immediately.

When they saw Sha Zhu lying unconscious behind Yi Zhonghai, they quickly asked someone to carry Sha Zhu to the emergency room.

Yi Zhonghai sat on a long bench outside the emergency room, feeling very uneasy, praying in his heart that nothing would happen! If something unexpected happened, he would be firmly controlled by the Jia family.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai recalled the young people in the courtyard and found that Zhou Jin was the most suitable candidate for retirement.

Zhou Jin was helpless, alone and without any relatives.

Not only that, he is also a capable cadre, and his cooking skills are superb. If you can have such a person to take care of you in your old age, it would be a dream come true.

However, due to his initial misjudgment of the situation and his easy targeting of Zhou Jin, the two families became mortal enemies, and now they can only maintain superficial peace.

As for Sha Zhu, he was just a backup plan. After all, his biological father, He Daqing, was still alive. Although he was forced to leave the city and go to Baoding by himself and the deaf old lady, no one could guarantee whether he would come back suddenly.

Besides, Sha Zhu had a bad temper and a foul mouth, and he had no control over his behavior and offended people everywhere. There were few people in the entire steel rolling mill and the courtyard who liked him. There was no problem in using him as a thug or a pawn to manage the courtyard.

But as for taking care of the elderly, Yi Zhonghai is still not very reassured. Even after being persuaded by the deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai will only use him as a tool to control the Jia family for the time being, and will not really devote himself to Sha Zhu.

After all, Yi Zhonghai has already paid too much for the Jia family, and he would definitely be reluctant to stop suddenly.

Moreover, there are many uncertainties in placing bets again.

While Yi Zhonghai was still thinking, the door of the operating room opened, and a doctor came out and said to Yi Zhonghai.

“Are you a relative of the patient?”

"Doctor, I'm not. I'm the eldest uncle in the hospital. He only has a younger sister who is studying. How is he doing now?"

"Oh, the patient is fine. The injuries on his body were probably caused by being beaten by multiple people. Fortunately, his internal organs were not injured. In addition, he had not eaten for a long time and his body had no nutritional supplements, which led to his fainting.

We have treated all his wounds. He will be transferred to the general ward and given a bottle of glucose. When he wakes up, you can go home. Here is the bill. Don't forget to pay it."

Yi Zhonghai took the bill, took a look at it, and luckily it was not expensive, only seven or eighty yuan.

So I thanked the doctor, went to the payment counter to pay, and then got the medicine.

Sha Zhu was also pushed to the ward for infusion. Only then did Sha Zhu begin to recover slowly. His face had some color and he woke up.

However, Sha Zhu didn't have the mind to care about his own body now, and he kept cursing his bad luck in his heart. Not only did he fail to get food for Sister Qin, but he was also beaten up for nothing. He even lost his money, and his underwear was torn by those bastards.

Yi Zhonghai took the medicine and remembered that the doctor told him that Sha Zhu fainted because he had not eaten, so he hurried out of the hospital to buy breakfast for Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu was lying on the hospital bed, thinking about how to explain to Qin Huairu, when his stomach started to growl. Sha Zhu then remembered that he had not eaten for more than ten hours.

Just then, Yi Zhonghai returned to the ward with two buns, four steamed buns and two bowls of soy milk.

Seeing that Sha Zhu had woken up, Yi Zhonghai finally felt relieved.

"Come on, Zhuzi, eat something first."

Sha Zhu quickly picked up the bun and started to eat it, finishing one in three bites. Then he drank some soy milk and had a long hiccup. He finally came back to life.

Without caring whether Yi Zhonghai ate or not, Sha Zhu quickly ate all the steamed buns, steamed buns and soy milk, and then lay down contentedly.

Although Yi Zhonghai was somewhat unhappy, he also knew that Sha Zhu was just like that, so he did not care too much about it. He walked to the empty bed next to Sha Zhu, sat down, and began to ask what had happened.

Originally, Sha Zhu wanted to keep it secret. After all, it would be too embarrassing to tell it to others. Unfortunately, his excuse was so bad.

Yi Zhonghai saw through the plan easily. Finally, out of desperation, Sha Zhu had to tell Yi Zhonghai everything about how Qin Huairu asked him to get food, how he went to the black market to buy food, and how he was robbed on the way home.

When Yi Zhonghai learned that Sha Zhu's last money had been robbed, he was also shocked. He would never have thought that a chef in a steel rolling mill, even if his salary was only twenty-odd dollars now, he had always been in his thirties before, and he usually only had to take care of one younger sister. However, he only had this little money left after all these years.

So where did the money go? He Yushui only had five yuan a month for living expenses before. Since Zhou Jin came back, Sha Zhu has not cared about Yushui at all.

Since Sha Zhu's money is not with He Yushui, and neither he nor the deaf old lady has taken Sha Zhu's money, there is only one possibility left, that is, Sha Zhu's savings and monthly salary must have gone into Qin Huairu's hands.

This made Yi Zhonghai feel a chill down his spine. Qin Huairu had easily emptied Sha Zhu's family fortune, and now he was being blamed by the Jia family. How could anything good happen?

Suddenly he felt that the old lady's insights were so thorough, and her analysis of the situation of every member of the Jia family was accurate, which made Yi Zhonghai make up his mind.

From now on, I will focus on Sha Zhu. I will let the Jia family know the price of losing me. They must be made to bow down before me.

"Zhu Zi, don't think about these things anymore. Everything is over. You can eat at our house this month and make plans after you get your salary at the end of the month." Yi Zhonghai comforted.

"Well, thank you uncle." Sha Zhu nodded gratefully.

"By the way, Zhuzi, don't help the Jia family anymore. Take care of yourself first." Yi Zhonghai reminded.

"Why?" Sha Zhu asked in confusion, "Didn't you ask me to take care of the Jia family before?"

"This is a different time now. You have seen that the Jia family doesn't take you seriously at all. Why bother trying to please them? Besides, you can't take care of yourself now, so how can you have spare money to give them?" Yi Zhonghai explained.

"But..." Sha Zhu hesitated to speak. He was thinking about Qin Huairu and didn't want to lose contact with the Jia family.

"No buts, you can be right if you listen to me." Yi Zhonghai said firmly.

In fact, Yi Zhonghai had long noticed that Sha Zhu was interested in Qin Huairu, but he knew that Sha Zhu was just a guy with the intention but not the courage to do it.

When he asked Sha Zhu to help the Jia family, on the one hand he wanted to use him to relieve his own pressure, and on the other hand he wanted to take this opportunity to control Sha Zhu and make him his loyal lackey.

But the situation is different now. If I want to invest heavily in Sha Zhu, I can't let Sha Zhu do these stupid things anymore. Only when Sha Zhu lives a better life will the Jia family regret it, and my status in Sha Zhu's heart will naturally rise.

There is another most important reason. Since we want the Jia family to repent now, we must cut off all external support for the Jia family, the most important of which are himself and Sha Zhu.
