Chapter 39 Threat
He went into the house and asked the three of them to chat. Yu Zhiyuan divided the vegetables among them, picked up the basket and went to his master's house.
Wait for Yu Zhiyuan and his master to return to the courtyard.
Shazhu was cooking while Qiaoqiao was secretly eating.
"Brother, I haven't seen you for a while. Is life in the countryside much better?"
"Brother Bi, you are feeling much better than the past two years. You are in good health. Is your sister-in-law in good health too?"
"I'm fine. I heard you were here, so I hurried over. It's been a while since I had a drink with you."
"I'm not leaving today. Let's chat more, brothers."
Yu Zhiyuan was rinsing the teapot and preparing to make tea again when he saw Bi Zicheng running into the backyard with a sweaty face and a schoolbag on his back.
"Uncle Zhiyuan, are you going to make something delicious today?"
"Well, go put your schoolbag down and wash your hands. Didn't you see Qiaoqiao is eating secretly?"
I served my father-in-law breakfast early in the morning.
Yu Zhiyuan took the basket and started packing things.
Cotton cloth, wine, tobacco, tea, and soap.
After cleaning up and feeding the donkey, he carried the cart out of the yard.
"Dad, I'll go to the village on Sunday to collect more vegetables. The villagers can't eat so much. Don't leave out the persimmons and cucumbers."
I watched my father-in-law get on the donkey cart and drive away slowly before I returned to the yard.
Yu Zhiyuan spent the summer busy stockpiling vegetables and fish when he went swimming in the river.
In mid-July, Qin Huairu gave birth to another daughter for the Jia family, and began to recuperate after giving birth amid Jia Zhang's complaints.
The Jia family had only one large house, which was divided into two rooms.
Qin Huairu was in the inner room recuperating after giving birth, so one can imagine what the environment at home was like.
When we were at work together, I could still hear Shazhu complaining that the children were crying every night and half of the yard couldn't get enough rest.
In the summer, windows and doors are not closed at night, and mosquito nets are hung over the beds.
One day when it was drizzling, Yu Zhiyuan and Zhiqiang were carrying a bag of grass back to the courtyard. Yan Bugui stopped them and told them that there would be a meeting in the evening.
Yu Zhiyuan didn't take it seriously. He thought that the last meeting was held to expand the factory's production.
All the workshops in this factory have been readjusted.
Go home, feed the chickens and have dinner.
I went out only after I heard someone knocking on a pot in the middle courtyard.
The drizzle has stopped and the weather is quite comfortable.
Zhiqiang carried Qiaoqiao on his back and left first.
Yang Zhiqiang lived in the courtyard for more than two months and had several young friends there.
Sha Zhu, Yu Zhiyuan and Xu Damao exchanged the following information, and in late October they began to slowly collect things and start working on them.
If Sha Zhu goes out to host wedding or funeral banquets, and the host family needs something, Yu Zhiyuan and Xu Damao will have to make arrangements.
I watched three old men come out with big teacups and sit down in front of the shabby square table.
Yu Zhiyuan said, "Do you know what happened? I haven't paid attention to the hospital all day."
Both shook their heads.
Liu Haizhong stood up and said loudly: "Everyone be quiet. I called you all here today to discuss something. Now let the uncle speak."
After saying that, sit down.
Yi Zhonghai stood up and said, "Jia Dongxu had an accident while working this afternoon!"
Hearing this, Yu Zhiyuan's heart skipped a beat. No way, it's already like this, and you still want to leave.
Yi Zhonghai waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "Half of the right hand was cut off."
"Fuck, can you please stop breathing heavily?" Yu Zhiyuan cursed in his heart.
"He's in the hospital now. Everyone knows Qin Huairu, and Dongxu's mother has to be taken care of at home. I thought we could all pool some money together, buy some things tomorrow and send a few representatives to take a look, and by the way, select two people to take care of him for a few days."
Still need money, Yu Zhiyuan looked at Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui.
Yi Zhonghai took the lead in collecting the money, and Yan Bugui sent his wife to take care of the child, and she could also earn money. No wonder Yan Bugui was so active.
After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he took out five dollars and threw them on the table: "Old Yan, please remember this."
At this time, Yu Zhiyuan remembered and waved to Zhiqiang.
Yang Zhiqiang came over: "Brother-in-law, what's the matter?"
"Go back and ask your sister to take out the family favor book and see how much the Jia family gave me when I got married and when my mother died. Come back and tell me after you've read it."
"I understand." Yang Zhiqiang replied, then carried Qiaoqiao away on his back.
Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao also turned around and went home.
A piece in the bangs.
Yanbugui is fifty cents.
Yu Zhiyuan was speechless when he looked at Jia Zhang and Bang Geng sitting on the bench in the middle.
Banggeng, it would be nice if you could just cry a bit.
Why do I feel like everything they do is their due?
Yu Zhiyuan couldn't figure it out.
Yi Zhonghai looked around the neighbors again and saw Sha Zhu coming out: "Zhu Zi, what about you?"
Sha Zhu gave Hao Yingjuan some instructions.
Hao Yingjuan said, "Uncle, this is Sanmao."
Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "Zhu Zi's family, your family has too little! After all, both of you are working."
"Uncle, when Zhuzi and I got married, Aunt Jia's family gave two cents, and all five of them were at the table. Besides, his family has two working parents, and Jia Dongxu is not incapable of working. He can go to the factory to negotiate a transfer after staying in the hospital for a few days, right?" After saying this, Hao Yingjuan put down three cents and waited for Yan Bugui to record it before walking out of the crowd.
Xu Damao walked over and said, "Uncle, my family has four cents. I have also looked at the account book. I am generous and I will double it."
Xu Damao left behind four cents and walked away.
Now everyone knows what to do.
Yu Zhiyuan led Zhiqiang to the table: "Uncle, my six cents have also doubled."
Pay and leave.
Yang Zhiqiang scratched his head and said, "Uncle, I just arrived at the factory and haven't bought many things yet, so I'll give you 10 cents."
Pay and leave.
Yi Zhonghai looked at the account book that Yan Bugui pushed over to him, and there was less than twelve yuan in total.
"We are all old neighbors. The Jia family is in trouble right now, so let's all lend a hand. The Jia family will also remember everyone's kindness. After all, we will also be running for the Outstanding Courtyard at the end of the year!"
Yu Zhiyuan saw Jia Zhang twist the stick and the stick started to cry loudly.
Jia Zhang coaxed her grandson, then stood up and said, "Well, my family is in confinement and hospitalized, so life is really difficult. So please lend a hand. I would like to thank you all on behalf of Dongxu."
After saying this, he wiped away his tears.
However, there was still no movement in the compound.
Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to pay out another ten yuan before announcing the adjournment of the meeting.
Yu Zhiyuan was stopped by Yi Zhonghai when he was about to go home.
Yu Zhiyuan wondered what he was called for.
"Zhiyuan, you and Zhuzi go buy some things tomorrow, and we'll go to the hospital!"
Yu Zhiyuan looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "I have to take care of Xuemei early in the morning, then go to work, come back to pick up people, and cook. I don't have time. I can't leave people with a big belly. Is it really impossible? Please consider it."
Yi Zhonghai's expression changed: "These are all neighbors' business. Is it so difficult for you to spare some time? If you do this, who will help you in the future?"
"Damn it, threatening me!" Yu Zhiyuan thought to himself.
"How about this, I'll ask Zhiqiang to buy some at noon and bring them to Uncle's house. We won't have to go to the hospital, okay?"
Yi Zhonghai then nodded and counted out twelve yuan to Yu Zhiyuan.
