Chapter 552: The 1st Auntie Who Takes the Blame
Chapter 552: The Auntie Who Takes the Blame
Seeing that everyone was not giving Yi Zhonghai face, Sha Zhu cursed in a low voice: "A bunch of conscienceless people who don't know how to respect the elderly and love the young."
"Forget it, forget about them. There are only three of us. It won't be hard to clean up the old lady's roof."
Yi Zhonghai was also a little angry, but after all, he had a lot of experience and could deal with such things calmly.
Sha Zhu patted his chest and said, "It's okay, uncle. There are still Jia Dongxu and I. We can go up and clean it up in a while. It's just a few tiles."
Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied with Sha Zhu's attitude, "Be careful."
Every family would store some tiles. Sha Zhu simply found the tiles stored by the old lady and moved a pile of them to the front door of the house.
"I'll get some mud and mortar to prevent leaks in the future."
Yi Zhonghai got some mud and sand, added water and mixed it together, and finally added some hay to increase its toughness. The yellow sand mortar was ready.
Seeing the three people busy, the aunt brought the shared ladder in the yard and reminded them, "This ladder is not very sturdy. Be careful when you climb up, Shazhu."
Sha Zhu looked at the ladder that had not been repaired for years, and stepped on it carefully to try.
"It's OK, it's pretty solid, there shouldn't be any problem."
The lady reminded again: "Be careful, don't fall."
Sha Zhu nodded: "Okay, just help hold on when you go up."
After saying that, Sha Zhu held the tile and stepped onto the ladder. Jia Dongxu followed closely behind him and was about to go up.
But at this time, Jia Zhang came back with a batch of bricks and noticed that her eldest son was about to go up, so she hurriedly called Jia Dongxu, "Dongxu, come here, Mom has something to do."
"Oh, here I come." Jia Dongxu happily put down the tile and went to find Jia Zhang.
"Dongxu, what are you doing?"
"I'm helping the old lady fix the roof."
Jia Zhang watched Sha Zhu climb up the stairs and said, "Dong Xu, you are not allowed to go up to the roof. You are the mainstay of the family, you can't get into trouble. What if you fall?"
"Just let Shazhu go up. He's not afraid of falling, and it's okay if he falls. But you can't do that."
"Ah, this... is not good." Jia Dongxu had just agreed to something, and now he was going back on his word. This was indeed not good.
But the next moment, he was glad that he didn't go up.
Just when Sha Zhu was about to step onto the roof with the tiles, the ladder under his feet suddenly couldn't bear the weight and broke with a snap.
"Ouch!"
The sudden loss of weight made Sha Zhu scream.
"boom!"
Sha Zhu's body fell heavily onto an old lady who was holding the ladder.
"Ah!!!" In an instant, an old lady screamed.
The scene fell silent for a moment.
"Cui Lan, are you okay?" Yi Zhonghai came to his senses and immediately pushed away Sha Zhu who was pressing on the old lady to check on her condition.
"Ouch~" an old lady wailed, feeling pain all over her body.
"Someone come quickly! Something happened!"
"Something seems to have happened outside, let's go and check it out." Everyone in the yard heard the shouts and went out to see what was going on.
I saw Shazhu rolling on the ground in pain, and the old lady was even more miserable, wailing constantly.
Yi Zhonghai was rarely seen panicking, as anxious as an ant on hot pan, not knowing what to do.
This is completely different from what we usually see Yi Zhonghai, he also has times when he is at a loss.
"What's going on, uncle?" Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong came over immediately to see the situation, and Yi Zhonghai gave a quick explanation.
Ignoring Sha Zhu, Yan Bugui made a prompt decision as he watched the old lady wailing. "The old lady is seriously injured. Send her to the hospital immediately."
"Yes, yes, bring a few young guys over." Liu Haizhong responded immediately.
"Jie Cheng, go borrow a cart from Li Kailang and take this lady to the hospital right away."
In an emergency, no one cares whose child it is.
Yan Jiecheng immediately asked Li Kailang to borrow his car, but when he saw that he was not at home, he almost forgot that he had left at noon and did not want to be disturbed by everyone.
"I can't care about that anymore." Yan Jiecheng pushed Li Kailang's cart over and said, "The cart is here, hurry up and get on board."
Everyone quickly pulled the old lady onto the cart, not caring where she was injured.
"Go to the hospital, quickly!" Yi Zhonghai ordered.
"Everyone, please help lift the cart. The bumps and bumps will cause more serious injuries." Yan Bugui shouted.
Everyone carried the cart out of the yard and pushed it to the hospital together.
"Oh my, look what's going on." The deaf old lady watched tremblingly, leaning on her crutches, caught off guard by this sudden incident.
It doesn’t matter if other people get injured, but that’s an old lady, and she depends on her for her daily life.
"I hope Cuilan is okay. What a sin."
Shazhu was still lying on the ground wailing, and the angry old lady hit him with her crutch.
"Okay, stop crying. There's an old lady here to take your place. Why are you still in pain?"
The old lady's crutch really works wonders. She used to feel aches all over her body, but now she only feels a burning pain in her back, which is much relieved.
"Hurry home to get some money and take this old lady to the hospital for treatment!"
"Okay." Sha Zhu rubbed his back and hurried home to get the money.
"Where are they? They left so fast." Some neighbors who realized the situation later had gone out for a long trip and could no longer see them, so they immediately went to the staff hospital.
hospital.
At this moment, outside the operating room, everyone gathered together, waiting anxiously.
Seeing Yi Zhonghai wandering around, everyone tried to persuade him.
"Lao Yi, don't worry, Auntie will be fine."
"Yes, Auntie usually does so many good things, she will be fine."
"Yeah, yeah, don't worry about it, uncle."
Except for those who were unaware of the situation, almost everyone present had someone from every household.
Auntie is one of the most popular people in the courtyard. If she says she is second, no one dares to claim to be first. The difference between her and Jia Zhang and the old lady is huge.
Whenever the old lady is free, she helps this family, takes care of the children in that family, and takes care of a deaf old lady. She works hard and does a lot of things without asking for anything in return.
If you ask them what bad things they have done, no one can name a single one.
Everyone has long been dissatisfied with Yi Zhonghai's favoritism towards the Jia family. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't repay the favor of a big aunt, they would have forced Yi Zhonghai to step down long ago.
Xu Damao has problems with the Yi family, Sha Zhu, and the Jia family, but he has no problem with Auntie.
"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would not have helped the old lady to install the tiles. If it weren't for this, nothing would have happened." Yi Zhonghai said regretfully.
"Don't worry, the aunt will be fine." Yan Bugui advised.
I don’t know how long it took.
boom!
The door of the operating room opened and an old lady was pushed out.
"Cui Lan, are you okay?" Yi Zhonghai looked anxiously at the sleeping old lady.
"Doctor, what's going on?" Yan Bugui asked immediately.
Being stared at by dozens of pairs of eyes, the doctor couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect to see so many people when he came out of the operating room, at least thirty to fifty people, right?
Wow, she’s just a middle-aged woman, but so many people care about her. How powerful must she be?
"Doctor, doctor!" The doctor recovered and explained, "The patient has a fractured lower leg. Fortunately, there are no broken bones. No surgery is required. Just rest."
"It has been connected now. He will rest in the hospital for a few days to see how he is doing. If it is not serious, he can be taken home to recuperate."
"The patient is old, so I suggest that he rest in the hospital for ten days to half a month to see how he recovers."
"It takes a hundred days for a broken bone to heal. Try not to let her do heavy work in the next three months. It would be best if someone can help take care of her during this month."
The doctor gave detailed instructions and everyone listened carefully, afraid to miss a word.
Auntie is sick, which is a good thing for everyone. In the past, everyone owed Auntie a lot of favors, and now we have a chance to repay her.
You have to take this time to repay the favor, otherwise you won't be able to repay it. You can't owe anyone a favor no matter what you owe them.
After the doctor finished speaking, he was finally able to take a breath. He had never spoken so many words in one breath in his life.
"That's all for now. If you have any questions, you can come to the clinic and ask me. You guys can take good care of me."
After saying that, the doctor and the nurse pushed the old lady to the ward.
A group of people followed behind him, a huge crowd, like a social group, making people who came to see the doctor avoid them.
A patient who had sprained his ankle was so frightened when he saw this massive scene that he immediately started to walk quickly on tiptoe, wishing he had two more legs.
Everyone came to the ward. No one in the ward had ever seen such a scene. An old lady, one of the patients, was so frightened that she started trembling and left immediately.
At this moment, my waist and legs no longer felt sore, I felt full of energy and could reach the sixth floor in one breath.
Looking at the unconscious old lady, everyone felt sorry for her.
"Silly Zhu, you are such a fool. Going up to the roof is so dangerous, but you actually asked an old lady to hold the ladder. You must be thinking a lot."
"That's right. Auntie is so old. What if she gets sick from being hit by you? That's all I can do."
"Auntie was already in poor health. After this incident, she will have to rest more in the future. Fortunately, she didn't have surgery, otherwise it would be even more troublesome."
Hearing everyone accusing him, Sha Zhu didn't dare to refute.
"Alright, alright, this is just an accident. No one expected this to happen. Let's go back first. It's not a good idea to crowd here."
It was not convenient for everyone to stay here, so Yi Zhonghai asked the second and third aunts to stay and take care of the baby, while the others went back to discuss how to take care of the first aunt.
Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu's group walked to the end, and Sha Zhu immediately apologized to Yi Zhonghai: "Uncle, I'm sorry, if I hadn't stepped on it, Auntie wouldn't have been like this."
"If you want to hit me or scold me, just come on, I promise not to fight back, don't hold it in your heart"
Sha Zhu felt deeply guilty and didn't know how to repent. If he had known this would happen, he would not have gone up to the roof.
Before he finished speaking, Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, "It's not your fault. It's the problem with the ladder. It's also my fault. Why would I go to repair the old lady's roof when there is nothing to do?"
The old lady was fine, and Yi Zhonghai's smart IQ once again took the upper hand, and he calmly analyzed the cause.
I am really looking for trouble. Why should I repair the old lady's roof? There is nothing wrong with her roof. Why am I so mean and want to show off my authority in front of young people?
"Uncle, stop comforting me. If I hadn't hit Aunt, she wouldn't be like this."
"Okay, stop blaming yourself. You can't be blamed entirely for this. Auntie is sick right now, so she can have a good rest."
"Don't think too much about it." Yi Zhonghai said expressionlessly.
Everyone returned to the yard one after another.
The deaf old lady heard the noise and came out with her cane to look at Yan Bugui, the leader: "Why are you all back? Did something serious happen?"
Yan Bugui comforted her, "Don't worry, old lady. Auntie is fine. The doctor said it was just a fracture. She just needs to rest. It's not a serious illness."
"Is that so? That's good, that's good."
Hearing this result, the old lady felt relieved. If an old lady had an accident because of her, it would be a big trouble.
As the crowd moved forward, the old lady saw Yi Zhonghai and asked with concern: "Xiao Yi, how is Cuilan?"
"It's nothing serious. The doctor said you just need to rest for a while. I won't be able to take care of you in the next few months."
"Don't worry about me. Cuilan's health is the most important. I, an old lady, can still move." The old lady nodded.
When everyone returned to the yard, they talked about taking care of the aunt.
"Usually it's Auntie who takes care of us and helps us. But after what happened today, we have to take good care of Auntie."
"That's right. Auntie is so kind to us. We can't let her down. Let's talk about it."
"Okay, it's just a big deal for our family."
After this incident, I was completely exhausted today.
"No, no, I can take care of her. No need to trouble you." Yi Zhonghai waved his hand to refuse. He had already thought about taking care of the old lady.
When the time comes, I can just trouble the second aunt, the third aunt, Jin Huainu, Qin Huairu and a few others. I don’t want to trouble everyone.
But no one paid any attention to Yi Zhonghai and everyone just discussed their own issues.
"I see everyone wants to take care of it, so let's stop fighting over it and take turns, with each family taking care of it for a day, how do you think?"
"This is a good idea. I agree. I don't think everyone has time to take care of it. They all have to go to work. In this way, some people will provide manpower, but no one will provide supplies."
"I agree. My whole family has to go to work and we are all busy. So, my family has not used up this month's meat coupons. I will buy some tomorrow. Who will take care of it tomorrow and help cook it and bring it over?"
"That's great, that's great. We've finished eating the meat, but we still have some fine grains at home. I'll pay for the meal tomorrow."
"This is a good idea. Everyone can contribute. Great."
Everyone wanted to help and no one wanted to be lazy. If they didn't take this opportunity to repay the old lady, they wouldn't know when the next time would be.
Yi Zhonghai felt mixed emotions and disbelief as he watched everyone discuss taking care of an old lady so seriously.
Soon, everyone discussed and came up with a charter.
Some people are responsible for taking care of the patients in the hospital, some are responsible for cooking and delivering meals. Everyone has their own responsibilities and something to do.
He did not give Yi Zhonghai any right to refuse and made the final decision directly.
"Don't get involved in the matter of a uncle taking care of an aunt. We can do it ourselves. Just take care of yourself."
"Uncle, please arrange a time for us so that we don't have to queue together."
"Okay, leave it to me." Yan Bugui responded loudly.
"I'll go first tomorrow!"
"I'll come first!"
Everyone was arguing about who would be the first person to be taken care of, which made the old lady and Yi Zhonghai feel even more mixed emotions.
I have been working hard and racking my brains to scheme against others, but I didn't expect that an old lady who didn't scheme at all would be so popular with everyone.
After everyone finished the discussion, they went back to their homes. It was getting late.
Only Yi Zhonghai, the Jia family, the Sha Zhu family, and the old lady were left.
The old lady suddenly thought, if there is no aunt to take care of her, who will take care of her?
Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai had already thought of this: "Xiao Jin."
"Uncle." Jin Huainu responded.
"Auntie is in the hospital. Please help take care of her during this time."
"Okay, don't worry, I know what to do." Jin Huainu responded. She also knew about the old lady.
"Okay, thank you for your help." After the old lady's daily life problems were solved, Yi Zhonghai went back to clean up, cooked some food and went to the hospital.
Replace the second and third aunts and take care of them yourself.
