Chapter 21 Deaf Old Lady!

Chapter 21 Deaf Old Lady!
After Yi Zhonghai returned home, he sat in a chair with a serious expression, thinking about what he saw when he was drinking at Jia Dongming's house tonight.

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang have been neighbors for more than ten years, and Yi Zhonghai knows everything about Jia Zhang.

However, tonight, when Yi Zhonghai went to Jia Dongming's house to drink, Jia Zhangshi was not angry at the arrival of so many of them. Instead, she acted like a docile kitten.

From this we can see that Jia Zhang has been completely suppressed by Jia Dongming. It is almost impossible for him to use Jia Zhang to plot against Jia Dongming.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai was still thinking about what he saw while drinking tonight, and he didn't notice that the cigarette between his fingers was burning continuously as time went by.

"Huhu.!"

The sudden pain between his fingers made Yi Zhonghai groan involuntarily. He quickly shook his hand holding the cigarette and threw the cigarette butt directly to the ground.

An old lady who was sitting on the edge of the bed sewing shoe soles heard Yi Zhonghai's sudden groan and immediately looked up at him. When she saw Yi Zhonghai's worried expression, she asked him, "Boss! As soon as you came back from Jia Dongming's house, you sat there in a daze. What's going on?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard the question from Auntie, and thought of the changes in Jia Zhangshi, he said to Auntie with a heavy heart: "Wife! I'm afraid we can't count on Qin Huairu to take care of us in our old age. It seems that we can only rely on Zhuzi in the future."

When Auntie heard what Yi Zhonghai said and saw his solemn expression, she said to him with a guilty look on her face: "Zhonghai! It's all my fault that I couldn't give birth to a child for your Yi family. How about we get a divorce and you marry someone else?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard what the aunt said, he immediately scolded her in dissatisfaction: "Wife! What nonsense are you talking about? If you hadn't risked your life to save me, you wouldn't have been injured. Besides, we have been through all these years, and you are not allowed to mention the word divorce again."

When Auntie heard what Yi Zhonghai said, tears started to flow out of her eyes like beads from a broken string. She suggested to Yi Zhonghai with a choked voice, "Boss! Why don't we go to the orphanage and adopt a child?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard the lady bring up the idea of ​​adopting a child again, he objected without even thinking: "Wife! Can you guarantee that the adopted child will not become an ungrateful person and eat up our family in the future? I will never allow you to bring up this topic again in the future."

When Yi Zhonghai said this, he suddenly remembered the deaf old lady who lived in the backyard. He immediately stood up from his chair and said to the aunt, "Wife! You go to sleep first. I'll go to the old lady's place."

As Yi Zhonghai said this, he opened the door and walked outside.

Soon Yi Zhonghai arrived at the door of the deaf old lady's house in the backyard. He saw the faint light in the house, reached out and knocked on the door, and whispered to the room: "Old lady! Are you asleep?"

The deaf old lady! The biggest boss in the courtyard, her identity and background are very complicated. She is probably the concubine of an important person in the late Qing Dynasty. It is said that the whole courtyard originally belonged to their family.

After the liberation of Sijiucheng, the deaf old lady donated the courtyard house, and the military officer association gave her the status of a five-guarantee household. In order to completely control the courtyard house, Yi Zhonghai privately spread the news that the deaf old lady's relatives had sent straw sandals to Hong Jun. However, the people in the courtyard overlooked one point. Sijiucheng was peacefully liberated, and Hong Jun had never been to Sijiucheng. How did the deaf old lady, a woman with bound feet, send straw sandals to Hong Jun?

The deaf old lady's catchphrase is "What did you say? I can't hear you!" In fact, her ears are not deaf at all. The deaf old lady lying on the bed heard Yi Zhonghai's shouting from outside the house and answered aloud: "Zhonghai! I just lay down on the bed. What do you want? Come in and tell me."

When Yi Zhonghai heard the deaf old lady's response from inside the room, he pushed open the door and walked into the room.

The deaf old lady leaning on the edge of the bed saw Yi Zhonghai coming into the room from outside, and asked Yi Zhonghai with a puzzled look on her face: "Zhonghai! You come to my place so late, what's the matter?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard the deaf old lady's question and thought about the reason why he came so late, he introduced her with a serious face: "Old lady! The other courtyard in our yard was divided out today. The new resident who moved in is the head of the security department of our steel mill."

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, the deaf old lady thought that Yi Zhonghai was worried that the new security chief would affect her and Yi Zhonghai's retirement plan, so she asked Yi Zhonghai, "Zhonghai! Are you worried that the new security chief will affect our business?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard the deaf old lady's question, he thought of his retirement plan and asked her with a frustrated look, "Old lady! In addition to Jia Dongxu, the Jia family has another son. Have you heard about it?"

When the deaf old lady heard Yi Zhonghai asking about the Jia family, she began to recall in her mind what had happened in the past twenty years.

After a long time, the deaf old lady finally spoke: "If I remember correctly, not long after the Jia family moved into the courtyard, the girl from the Zhang family had an argument with Jia Youcai and cursed Jia Youcai for losing her eldest son for a little food!"

When the deaf old lady said this, she suddenly thought of something and showed a shocked expression on her face. She asked Yi Zhonghai in a very surprised tone: "Zhonghai! Could the security chief who just moved in be the lost eldest son of the Zhang family girl?"

Yi Zhonghai could never have imagined that the old lady actually knew that the Jia family had an older son.

Facing the old lady's question and seeing her shocked expression, Yi Zhonghai nodded instinctively and replied, "Old lady! You guessed it right. The new security chief is Jia Zhang's long-lost eldest son, Jia Dongming."

"Tonight I took the opportunity to go to Jia Dongming's house for a drink. Jia Dongming proposed to return all the money donated to the Jia family by the hospital over the years. The greedy Jia Zhang sat aside and didn't dare to say a word."

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, the deaf old lady immediately didn't understand why Yi Zhonghai came tonight. She said to Yi Zhonghai earnestly, "Zhonghai! When you chose Jia Dongxu as your old-age caregiver, I told you that although Jia Dongxu is filial, Zhang girl is not an easy person to deal with. Jia Dongxu listens to Zhang girl so much. As long as Zhang girl is alive, it is unlikely that you will let Jia Dongxu take care of you in your old age!"
