Chapter 724 Jia Dongxu Vomits Blood
The deaf old lady smiled softly, waved her hand, and said, "Alright, let's leave it at that. Don't worry about it anymore. Banggeng has a really bad reputation in this yard. Maybe if he goes to the countryside and the environment changes, he will be a lot more honest."
Yi Zhonghai wanted to argue a few more times, trying to persuade the deaf old lady to change her mind. However, before he could say anything, he saw the deaf old lady lying on the bed, closing her eyes and pretending to sleep. Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai felt angry and helpless. He snorted heavily and turned away angrily.
Yi Zhonghai came to the middle courtyard angrily. Qin Huairu was pacing anxiously waiting. When she saw Yi Zhonghai, she hurried forward and asked anxiously, "Uncle, how is it? What did they say?"
Yi Zhonghai looked gloomy, sighed deeply, and said: "Alas, I am no longer a great man, and my words do not carry as much weight as before. But I still told the old lady about Banggeng, but the old lady was very determined. Besides, Banggeng has always been in poor health, and I am afraid that he will suffer a lot if he goes to the countryside."
Qin Huairu stared at Yi Zhonghai, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes. She never thought that Yi Zhonghai, who once had the final say in the courtyard, was now so useless that he couldn't even do such a thing. It seemed that she had to think of another way. After thinking about it, the only person who could help her now was probably He Yuzhu.
Qin Huairu had planned to go to He Yuzhu's house immediately and ask him to help her find a solution. But after taking a few steps, she suddenly remembered that He Yuzhu was not at home. She had no choice but to turn around and go home.
As soon as she entered the house, she saw Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu huddled together, planning something. When Jia Zhang saw Qin Huairu coming back, she immediately yelled in anger, "Qin Huairu, what are you doing outside? You don't even know how to come back and cook. Do you want to starve us to death?"
Qin Huairu looked at these two irresponsible people with a feeling of annoyance in her heart, but she still managed to hold back and said, "Dongxu, now people are talking about going to the countryside. Our Banggeng is on the list. If he goes, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back for the rest of his life."
When Jia Dongxu heard this, he turned pale with anxiety. He had been counting on Banggeng to take care of him in his old age. If Banggeng went to the countryside, what would he do for the rest of his life? The more he thought about it, the more desperate he felt. A surge of blood suddenly surged into his heart. He felt a sweetness in his throat, and with a "wow" he spat out a mouthful of old blood. Then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
In fact, Jia Dongxu has never recovered from the rat poison accident. In addition, He Yuzhu no longer supports the Jia family as he did before, and life at home has become increasingly difficult. Jia Dongxu's nutrition is not enough, and his body is already weak.
Qin Huairu was secretly happy when she saw Jia Dongxu faint, but she still had to pretend to be extremely anxious. After all, Jia Dongxu couldn't die at this time. If he died, the family would be completely without support. If Jia Dongxu didn't die, the people above might soften their hearts and not let Banggeng go to the countryside when they saw the miserable state of the Jia family.
Qin Huairu panicked for a moment and stood there at a loss. Jia Zhang was the one who reacted quickly. She glared at Qin Huairu fiercely and scolded her, "Why are you still standing here like an idiot? Why don't you find someone to send Jia Dongxu to the hospital!"
Qin Huairu finally woke up from her dream. She slapped her head and rushed out the door in a hurry, shouting for help as she ran: "Help, Dongxu has fainted, help!"
Qin Huairu's first thought was to ask He Yuzhu for help. She rushed to He Yuzhu's house in a hurry. But when she arrived at the door, she found that the door of He Yuzhu's house was locked. She suddenly remembered that He Yuzhu had gone out and was not at home at the moment.
In desperation, Qin Huairu rushed to Yi Zhonghai's house without stopping. As soon as she reached the door, she shouted loudly: "Uncle Yi, it's bad, Jia Dongxu fainted!"
Yi Zhonghai heard the shout and hurried out of the house. He looked at the panicked Qin Huairu and comforted her: "Qin Huairu, don't worry, tell me slowly, what's going on?"
At this time, Yan Bugui in the front yard and Liu Haizhong in the back yard heard the noise and came over. Yan Bugui frowned and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Qin Huairu, what's wrong? It's the weekend, and you are yelling here."
Qin Huairu looked at them anxiously and said in a crying voice: "Dongxu has fainted, please help send him to the hospital!"
In fact, Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to care about Jia Dongxu's affairs. After all, Jia Dongxu had problems every other day, but he was still Jia Dongxu's nominal master. He couldn't just leave him alone because of the relationship. He frowned, sighed helplessly, and said, "Yes, there is strength in numbers. Let's send Jia Dongxu to the hospital first." His tone was full of reluctance, but also with a sense of responsibility as a master.
Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong looked at each other and understood each other. They knew that the Jia family must be playing some tricks again. They were probably afraid that Banggeng would be sent to the countryside, so they came up with this trick to gain sympathy. Yan Bugui nodded slightly and said, "Okay, we'll find someone right away." Although he agreed readily on the surface, he was secretly complaining in his heart.
Liu Haizhong returned home slowly and called his two sons to help in a bad mood, muttering: "What a lunatic! He came up with this trick just because he was afraid that Banggeng would go to the countryside. But what's the use?" He shook his head as he walked, thinking that the Jia family's trick was not very clever, but it was not easy for him to directly refuse Yi Zhonghai.
Although Yan Bugui did not complain directly like Liu Haizhong did, he also thought so in his heart. Together with Liu Haizhong and a few young people, they hurriedly lifted Jia Dongxu onto the cart and walked slowly to the hospital. Along the way, Yan Bugui was thinking about how to find an excuse to get out. He didn't want to waste time in the hospital, let alone spend money.
When they arrived at the hospital, Yi Zhonghai was busy registering and looking for a doctor. Yan Bugui seized the opportunity, coughed deliberately, and pretended to suddenly remember something important. He said, "Oh, my brain almost forgot. I have something important to say at home. I'd better go back first." After that, without waiting for Yi Zhonghai's response, he hurried away with his child.
When Yan Bugui left, Liu Haizhong suddenly felt that he had suffered a loss and was very angry. He thought to himself, why didn't he think of such a good excuse, and Yan Bugui got ahead of him in vain. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He looked at Yi Zhonghai and said unhappily, "Old Yi, Jia Dongxu is your apprentice. It's really inconvenient for us to be here. I also went back home in advance because of something."
