Chapter 66 The Suffering Deaf Old Lady

In the afternoon, Yi Zhonghai returned to the yard on a cart pulled by Jia Dongxu. Upon seeing this, everyone quickly surrounded him and asked about the situation.

Yi Zhonghai got off the cart, leaned on a crutch, limped to Yan Bugui's garden wall, and began to observe.

There were still bricks scattered where he was injured yesterday, and a section of the garden wall next to it had also collapsed. After staring at it for a long time, Yi Zhonghai couldn't figure out what was going on. Puzzled, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. He could only blame himself for being unlucky.

At this time, Zhang Xingwang came over to inquire about what happened in the hospital. It turned out that after Yi Zhonghai was taken to the hospital, the doctor examined him and told him that his lower leg was fractured.

After finding out that it was the collapsed wall that caused the injury, the doctor simply said a few words, "The old man is in poor health, maybe he has osteoporosis or something." He then gave him an injection and wrapped his leg in plaster. After some observation, he was discharged from the hospital the next afternoon. The doctor's instructions were simple: just go home and take care of yourself and eat good food.

Yi Zhonghai was in the hospital wondering if Zhang Xingwang was responsible for this. It was a coincidence. Otherwise, how could a good wall collapse? But he couldn't figure out how he did it.

The guy was running towards me at the time, so there was no way he could have hit the wall. I also saw the joints on the edge of the collapsed wall, and it didn't look like it was man-made. In the end, I could only blame myself for my bad luck.

After Zhang Xingwang learned what had happened, he hurried forward and began to ask about Yi Zhonghai's well-being in a slightly exaggerated manner. He vividly demonstrated to everyone on the spot the cause and process of Yi Zhonghai's injury in front of Yi Zhonghai's embarrassed gaze.

After listening to this, everyone basically agreed that it was Yi Zhonghai's own bad luck and Zhang Xingwang's fault. However, they expressed their condemnation for Yi Zhonghai's secret help in buying meat, and hinted that everyone would be happy to help in this way.

Looking at the people still watching the excitement in the yard and the bricks on the ground, Zhang Xingwang felt that his chance had come. He had to be simple and rough to deal with Jia Dongxu. After all, this guy was not as difficult as Yi Zhonghai.

He secretly took away a few bricks, looked at Jia Dongxu who was sweating and enjoying the cool air at the door, and turned to go to the backyard.

While everyone was watching the fun, he threw the brick with all his strength, increased his speed, and showed a satisfied smile. When he returned to the front door, he saw that everyone had almost left. Jia Dongxu happened to walk forward a few steps and was chatting with Yi Zhonghai. It seemed that the two of them were also ready to go back.

Zhang Xingwang quickly moved over to face the two men, pretending to say words of concern, and then with an idea, the three of them turned around and lined up, starting from behind Jia Dongxu and heading towards the side of his calf, having an intense and intimate contact.

Jia Dongxu was beaten so hard that he fell to one knee with his hands on the ground, and almost fell to his knees by Zhang Xingwang.

Everyone had almost dispersed, but then they heard another scream and rushed back instantly. Sha Zhu learned that someone had attacked Jia Dongxu from behind with a brick.

He said the direction the brick was flying from, and ran out to check outside the yard. After looking for a long time, he didn't see a ghost. He came back, scratched his head, and told about the situation outside.

Yi Zhonghai didn't care about so many things at this time. He pointed at Jia Dongxu who was still holding his leg and crying in pain, then looked at Zhang Xingwang who had an innocent face, and turned to Sha Zhu and said, "Zhu Zi, quickly send your brother Dongxu to the hospital."

The cart hadn't been returned yet, so it saved me a lot of trouble. The more Sha Zhu looked at the cart, the more weird it seemed. He was puzzled.

Jia Dongxu fell down right after he pushed the bricks. Three bricks were thrown straight at one place, with a little time interval, and they were so accurate. No one can withstand it. I don't think I will be like that.

Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu also rushed over after hearing the news. They took a look at Jia Dongxu's injuries, and had another extreme tug of war with Yi Zhonghai. After taking Yi Zhonghai's ten dollars, they satisfiedly scolded Sha Zhu and went to the hospital.

When Zhang Xingwang saw the scene between the master and the disciple, he suddenly understood and thought that the two of them should be able to keep quiet for a while this time.

He dragged his fourth sister, who had rushed over after hearing the news, and strolled back home.

Then I returned home and continued to stew meat for the deaf old lady for dinner. This time the old lady couldn't help but come again.

But Zhang Xingwang did not give in. He understood the principle of loosening up and tightening up, and immediately gave all the remaining meat and soup to his younger sister.

The old lady also had to save face. Being able to come in twice in one day was already the limit. She couldn't snatch the food from the children's bowl, so she went back with a sullen face.

At night, the yard was bustling again. Jia Dongxu came back. According to the fourth sister, he had a serious fracture in his left calf bone. The doctor said that he was young and in good health, so he put a plaster cast on him and sent him home to recuperate. After paying the hospital fee, Jia Zhang earned 4 yuan.

Sha Zhu was sent back to the cart, and did not dare to stay outside any longer, and went home in a flash. It is said that he had a nightmare all night. It should be because he was scared by Jia Zhang's scolding of the murderer for half the night.

For two days, the master and his apprentice did not go out, but directed Sha Zhu to ask around who was suspicious outside that day. Jia Dongxu did not think of calling the police, but he thought that someone in the workshop was taking revenge on him, and he was thinking about a few people who had a grudge against him, waiting for his injury to heal, so he could take revenge.

Zhang Xingwang didn't care about these things. In the past two days, except for the gate of Jia's house, the rest of the yard was much quieter. He was also concentrating on stewing meat for two consecutive days, and also rested at home for two days.

However, the deaf old lady had been smelling the stench for two days, and every time she came, there was not even a drop of soup left, and the women in the house had diarrhea after eating it.

At noon on the third day, the deaf old lady came knocking on the door with the disabled but strong-willed Yi Zhonghai. There was nothing they could do. It would have been better if they hadn't eaten. After the deaf old lady finished the half bowl of meat soup at noon on the first day.

After that, whenever she smelled the food, no matter what she thought, tears would flow from the corners of her mouth. She knew that the boy was up to no good, but eating meat had almost become an obsession for the old lady. She had no choice but to ask the head of the nursing home, who was leaning on a cane, to help.

As a result, the conversation between the two was irrelevant:

"Didn't we agree that if there's anything delicious, we'll give the old lady a bowl?"

“I sent it.”

"The old lady said that your family eats meat every day."

"Has your family eaten meat recently?"

(A lady listened to the doctor and secretly supplemented Yi Zhonghai’s nutrition)

"What's wrong with you giving the old lady a bowl of meat when you eat it? She's so old."

"Just like me, you don't have many days left to live."

"As a human being, you should respect the elderly and love the young"

"You are right. I will go to see my grandparents tomorrow. The old couple is still earning work points."

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he almost threw away his crutches. Sha Zhu, who had just walked in, was ready to come to the rescue.

As a result, after listening for a long time, he still didn't understand what the two were talking about, but it seemed that there was nothing wrong with what they said, so he scratched his head and said it would be right to listen to the old man, and then he supported the two of them one by one and went out.

The result was that Zhang Xingwang's dinner was changed from stewed meat to stir-fried meat. Not to mention that the recipe he bought was really good, but he felt very unhappy as a chef. Thinking that he had a good rest at home in the past two days, he went to serve the meal dejectedly.

Master Zhang succeeded in making the delicious dish that his mother Wang Xiulan and fourth sister could never create by following the recipe on the first try. I don’t know why, maybe it’s a talent.

Finally, the deaf old lady couldn't stand it anymore and ran to Yi Zhonghai's house to relax and complain, causing Yi Zhonghai's bowl of broth to be hidden under the quilt for a full hour and a half. When the deaf old lady finally finished her nagging and left, she lifted the quilt and saw that not a drop was left and all the broth had spilled on the bed.

During this period, Liu Junming came and took away the key to a house in the front yard. He was going to clean up the house and paint the walls, so Zhang Xingwang let him do it.

They went to the pigeon market at night. The manager looked at the wild sheep he brought and smiled from ear to ear. However, after asking Zhang Xingwang about his needs, he became mute again and turned into the darkness.

After a while, the Third Master came over. The Third Master looked at Zhang Xingwang with a smile and said:

"You want to work this time? What can the young man do?"

"Third Master, do you have any idea?"

"There is a furniture factory, but it takes some effort and two or three years to learn the skills."

"Okay, I don't know the price."

"Stay here sheep, let's make friends."

"Thank you."
