Chapter 386 You Should Pay the Most

Yi Zhonghai was also a little unhappy.

The total amount raised was sixteen dollars and seventy cents, ten dollars of which came from his pocket.

Plus the two dollars he lent to Qin Huairu in the afternoon.

The amount of money he paid out alone was almost twice the total amount of donations raised by so many households in the compound.

"Sister Qin, sixteen dollars is only enough for the Jia family to eat for a month. What are you going to do after a month?"

Sha Zhu asked worriedly.

"It's good enough to raise 16 dollars. If my mother still doesn't come out after a month, I will think of another way."

Qin Huairu bit her lip and was about to cry.

“We still haven’t raised enough money.”

Sha Zhu said indignantly.

The other masters in the courtyard looked at him unfriendly.

Most people only paid fifty or thirty cents. Now that Shazhu said this, isn't it obvious that he is blaming them for being stingy?

But then again, who doesn’t need money?

It was painful enough for them to be able to donate fifty or thirty cents to the Jia family.

"What do you mean, idiot? Do you think my fifty cents is not enough?"

Xu Damao tilted his head and questioned.

The others looked at Sha Zhu with unfriendly eyes.

"That's not what I meant. Everyone has tried their best. I know that."

"What makes me unhappy is that the person who should have paid the most money sneaked away and wanted to shirk his debt!"

Sha Zhu shouted loudly.

A dozen old men exchanged glances, and needless to say, they knew that the person Sha Zhu was talking about was Chen Jianye.

"Think about it, everyone. It was Chen Jianye who sent Aunt Jia to the police station. The Jia family can't survive, so Chen Jianye should help them."

"He's good. When it comes to paying, he runs faster than anyone else. What do you think? Is this okay?"

Sha Zhu continued to speak at length.

When everyone heard this, it seemed to make sense.

If Chen Jianye hadn't sent Jia Zhang to jail, they wouldn't have to gather together to raise funds for the Jia family.

Now they have all donated money, except Chen Jianye who ran away.

"This kid is quite mean."

"Chen Jianye should pay at least a little."

"I think there is nothing wrong with what Shazhu said."

Several gentlemen spoke up in agreement.

"To be honest, I was thinking that if I could donate thirty yuan to the Jia family today, it would be enough to keep them from starving for two months."

"Now it seems that there is still a long way to go."

"It's fine if it's a long way off, but we've already paid, and I can't stand it if the troublemaker doesn't pay."

"Not a cent less than the thirty yuan! The missing money must be made up by Chen Jianye."

"I'll wait here today and see how long Chen Jianye can delay coming back!"

Sha Zhu said in a strong and powerful voice.

"Silly Pillar is standing up today."

"Good job, silly pillar."

"It's all on you."

A few old men came to watch the fun and were not afraid of trouble, so they all started praising Sha Zhu.

They don’t care whether Chen Jianye donates money or not, they just want to see Sha Zhu and Chen Jianye fight each other.

Ever since Sha Zhu fell silent, the compound has become less lively and life has lost a lot of flavor.

Sha Zhu's face flushed slightly, and he finally felt the long-lost feeling of being praised.

Before, Yi Zhonghai had absolute power in the courtyard, and with the support of a deaf old lady, Sha Zhu would just use his fists against anyone who disobeyed him.

It was so enjoyable back then.

Ever since the deaf old lady passed away, Sha Zhu felt like he had entered a whirlpool and the money he had was dropping down.

There is no taste for life at all.

Now, that long-lost feeling of passion is back.

"Shazhu, when Chen Jianye comes back later, you should talk to him properly."

"I believe that Chen Jianye is a reasonable person."

Yi Zhonghai warned.

"Don't worry, uncle. I am also a reasonable person."

"If Chen Jianye takes his responsibilities, I will naturally not make things difficult for him. If he doesn't want to take any responsibilities at all, I'm sorry, I will definitely not let him get away with it so easily today."

Sha Zhu replied with absolute certainty.

“Who’s going to hold me accountable?”

Chen Jianye's voice suddenly rang out at the gate of the courtyard.

Everyone looked towards the gate.

Chen Jianye walked into the yard carrying his bicycle with a faint smile on his face.

Ran Qiuye was following beside him, also carrying a bicycle.

"Chen Jianye, everyone is collecting donations for the Jia family, what are you doing?"

"I take it you're trying to get away with fundraising?"

Sha Zhu shouted loudly.

"That's it?"

Chen Jianye was slightly stunned, then burst into laughter.

He thought Sha Zhu was going to do something to him, but it turned out to be about the Jia family's donation.

I have to say that Sha Zhu really works hard for Qin Huairu.

"Otherwise, everyone has donated money, and you are the only one missing."

"Hurry up and express yourself."

Sha Zhu shouted.

"I originally wanted to donate two or three dollars to the Jia family. After all, they are residents of the same compound and the Jia family is in trouble. It's not a big deal for me to help them."

Chen Jianye said calmly, his face turned cold: "But I have changed my mind now."

"Chen Jianye, what do you mean?"

Sha Zhu asked.

“I won’t donate anymore.”

"I donated money to the Jia family because I wanted to help them."

"What's the attitude of what you said to me? I still owe it to the Jia family, and I still owe it to you. Why do you force me to donate money by pressing my head?"

Chen Jianye stopped and spoke in a cold tone.

His meaning was very clear. It was okay to donate money to the Jia family, but he had to be willing to do so.

If you are forced to donate money, I’m sorry, I don’t have a penny.

"You owe the Jia family. If you hadn't sent Aunt Jia to the police station, would everyone have donated money to the Jia family?"

"It's all your fault that things turned out like this."

Sha Zhu roared.

"fart!"

"Mrs. Jia was in jail because she stole salted fish from my house. She deserved to be arrested by the police."

"According to what you said, if I hacked you to death with a knife and your sister called the police to arrest me, which led to me going to jail, it would also be your sister's fault?"

Chen Jianye sneered.

"You are talking nonsense. How can stealing and murder be confused?"

"Aunt Jia was greedy and took some of your food, but you refused to give in and sent her to the police station. You are so cruel."

"No one in the Jia family is making money now, so we need the residents of our courtyard to raise funds. You should contribute the lion's share."

Sha Zhu argued.

Chen Jianye laughed angrily and looked at the three uncles: "Do you mean the same thing?"

"I never said that."

Yi Zhonghai shirked his responsibility.

Next he had to make the clamp, so it was not appropriate to openly quarrel with Chen Jianye.

Of course, this does not affect Yi Zhonghai's secret operations.

"That's what Shazhu thought. I didn't say a word."

Liu Haizhong also followed suit.

"In fact, I think Jianye is right. It's not Jianye's fault that Mrs. Jia is in jail."

"Jianye, don't be angry with Shazhu. Just do what you thought at the beginning. It's OK as long as we have a clear conscience."

Yan Fugui was trying to smooth things over.

"What about you? Do you also think that I should pay the lion's share for the Jia family fundraising?"

Chen Jianye looked at the pillars of each household in the compound.

"Jianye, what Shazhu said is bullshit. I support you."

"Aunt Jia is in jail because of her own fault. She did something bad, and there is nothing wrong with the police arresting her."

Xu Damao expressed his position.

"This matter really cannot be blamed on Jianye. It was old lady Jia who broke the law."

"Silly Zhu is so confused, his mind can't think straight."

Some people also spoke up to express their support for Chen Jianye.

Sha Zhu turned his head angrily and looked at the person who spoke.

I feel so angry that my teeth are itching.

Some people didn't say this when Chen Jianye wasn't here just now.

In front of Chen Jianye, they have to be good people again.
