Siheyuan: Chen Xueru helped me intercept Hu Qin Huairu

Chapter 173 What is supposed to come finally comes

"It's like this. The three of us have discussed it and decided to assign the cleaning work in the yard to Xiao Jia."

"From now on, Xiao Jia will be responsible for cleaning the yard."

"As for how much we will pay, I mean 30 to 50 cents for each family. Those in the yard who have jobs up to Level 5 will be given 50 cents, and those with jobs below Level 5 will be given 30 cents."

"This yard is allocated two days per family per month. Two days a day is only 15 cents to 25 cents, which is not much."

"What do you think?"

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and no one objected.

These days, only thirty cents a month can buy three kilograms of Chinese cabbage. Three kilograms of Chinese cabbage is not even a single one, but it can clean two yards.

As for those with wages above the fifth-level job category, they are Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Li Xiuzhu.

If Lao He were here, maybe he could be counted as one, but it would have to be Lao He who was a chef. Now that Lao He was sweeping the streets, he wouldn't be counted.

Xu Damao's father couldn't even earn the money of a fifth-level worker.

Li Xiuzhu took a look and saw that no one objected, and said, "If no one objects, then it's settled."

"Another thing is that Dongxu told me that he wanted to take out the sewing machine at home for everyone to use."

"Of course it's not free, there's no obligation."

"For thirty cents a day, you can use the sewing machine all day long and use it however you want."

Hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang was unhappy and hurriedly said: "Li Xiuzhu, isn't thirty cents too little today? I bought a sewing machine for one hundred and seventy cents."

Li Xiuzhu heard this and said: "It won't break after being used for a while. The sewing machine in my wife's previous factory works well every day and has not broken down twice in a year."

"This is thirty cents a day, and there are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year. If you calculate it as three hundred and fifty days, it is one hundred and five. In two years, you will earn a second-hand sewing machine for nothing. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?"

"Even the maintenance fees and needle money are out."

When Jia Zhang heard this, she thought it was true.

Although two years is a bit long, she can afford to wait.

"Okay, I'll just listen to you." Jia Zhang looked around and said, "Everyone is welcome to come to my house to use the sewing machine."

She didn't expect that what Li Xiuzhu said was difficult to do at all. Home was no better than a factory. She often accumulated it and used it for a day at a time.

These ten households can use it up to fifty times a year.

And every time I use it, one or two needles almost break.

So I can earn about ten yuan a year.

"Okay, there's nothing else to do, so let's go."

There were two families who were a little hesitant and wanted to speak, but seemed embarrassed to do so.

The Jia family is in trouble, and so is their family.

Although Yan Bugui has given birth to several children and is about to marry his son, Yan Bugui knows how to scheme.

With only the current food stamps, I can barely survive.

Of course, if you want to eat a little fuller, you have to spend six yuan a month on whole grains.

Fortunately, the family is not short of money. The four bicycles they saved in the past few years have been sold long ago, making a profit of 1,200 yuan including the capital.

Hearing Li Xiuzhu say that the group should break up, everyone broke up, but not long after the group broke up, there was a noise from Jia's house.

"What, you want your mother and me to make shoes every day?"

"Dongxu, why did I raise such an unfilial son like you?"

The Jia family's voice was so loud that many people in the middle courtyard stood in the courtyard, raising their heads and watching.

No one made a sound, everyone was in perfect agreement.

However, some children went to the front yard and back yard to report the news. Naturally, someone from Li Xiuzhu's family also reported that the person who came was Yi Xingguo.

Li Xiuzhu was stunned for a moment and did not go to see it, but Chen Xueru, who liked to watch the excitement, went with a few younger sisters.

Tian Zao stayed at home. She was in charge of the street office. If she went there, she would not be able to watch from the outside.

It just so happened that they hadn't been close to each other for a few days. It would be convenient for the two of them when everyone else had gone out.

On the other side, Mrs. Jia Zhang of the Jia family was still cursing. Xiao Jia's voice was not loud, so everyone stood in the yard less than three meters away from the Jia family.

"Mom, I just asked you to embroider shoes, how could that be unfilial?"

"Do you know how difficult it is for me? Not only do I have to give you three yuan a month for pension, but I also have to support a large family."

"You eat a lot, and Banggeng eats a lot. Plus Hongying is pregnant, and her nutrition has to keep up."

"Thirty-two and a half yuan. I can only use five yuan a month to work. You still scold me every day. Are you going to let me live?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang said with unabated aura: "Don't talk nonsense to me. Didn't Li Xiuzhu ask you to clean the yard? Isn't this just money?"

"It's more than five yuan a month. The ten yuan plus your salary is not enough for you to spend? Why do you have to ask me to make shoes?"

"If you don't do it, I won't be able to do anything."

Jia Dongxu was numb when he heard this. He didn't expect that my mother's resistance would be so fierce.

"Mom, you have nothing to do when you are idle. Why don't you make some shoes to help support the family?"

"Even if you can't make one pair in one day, you can still make one pair in three days."

"Brother Li said that you can ask someone to charge you 50 cents for each pair of shoes. If you make a pair in three days and throw away the fabric and other things, you can earn three yuan a month."

Jia Zhang really likes to make shoes, but one pair every three days is not enough. One pair every seven days is fine.

Hearing this, he was silent for a moment and said angrily: "One pair every ten days, but I can only make three pairs a month."

"Also, you have to give me the money you earn."

Although it's not a big problem to have one pair every day, she can't do it. She has to leave time to rest. How do you say that? A balance between work and rest is indispensable.

Jia Dongxu is crazy. He can only earn one yuan from three pairs this month. What can he do?

"Mom, if you are like this, then I will not give you any pension money in the future."

Jia Zhang was stunned when she heard this, and then became angry. She jumped up from the bed, pointed at Jia Dongxu and cursed: "Well, Jia Dongxu, I gave birth to you and raised you. When you grow up, your wings will become hard. I don't want your mother." Isn’t it?”

"Okay, very good. I'm going to find a few uncles to hold a hospital-wide meeting and let them see what kind of person you are."

"An unfilial son like you should be dragged out on the streets and criticized."

"Also, I am literate. If you don't support the elderly, you are committing the crime of abandonment. I can sue you, believe it or not."

Jia Dongxu felt tired for a moment, not because he was afraid of being accused, but because he felt that he had no hope for life, as if he couldn't see any hope.

Zheng Hongying watched the whole process without saying a word. Before, Jia Dongxu didn't say he was a mama's boy, but it wasn't much different.

Over the years, she has become tired and only pursues her own interests, and doesn't care so much about Jia Dongxu.

But she didn't know at this time that her refusal to fight would actually harm Jia Dongxu.

For a moment, Jia Dongxu said in frustration, "It's up to you." Jia Dongxu opened the door and was about to go out for some air when he saw people in the courtyard at the door.

Jia Dongxu's face looked a little ugly for a moment, but since they were all in the same courtyard, and Chen Xueru, he naturally didn't dare to get angry and had to endure everything.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Jia Dongxu and sighed.

In the past, when he had no children, he still relied on Jia Dongxu to support him in his old age, but now he has his own family and can rejuvenate the country.

"Dongxu, come and sit at home?"

Jia Dongxu shook his head after hearing this, knowing that Yi Zhonghai wanted to talk to him and give him some relief, but what he needed now was not relief, but money.

"No sir, I'm going out for a walk."

Yi Zhonghai did not force him to stay and said, "Okay, then be careful on the road."

After Chen Xueru finished watching the show, she said to Zhou Rushui: "Rushui, your sister Zaoer has something to ask you. You can go to her room later."

Zhou Rushui heard the words and hurriedly responded: "Okay, sister... I'll be there right away."

After so many years, Zhou Rushui has become accustomed to the meaning of this sentence.

"Okay, let's go together. We just have to go home."

Zhou Rushui followed Chen Xueru to the door before separating. The latter entered his own home, and the former entered Tian Zao's house.

After roughly understanding the situation of the Jia family from Zhou Rushui, Tian Zao frowned and said, "Brother, if we only need three pairs of shoes a month, it will be difficult for the street to collect them. The quantity is too small."

"We usually collect ten pairs of shoes."

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this and said, "It doesn't matter. It won't be too late to collect them when she has ten pairs of shoes."

"Just don't charge monthly."

Hearing this, Tian Zao relaxed his brows and asked, "Brother, why did you take the initiative to help the Jia family? I have never seen you take the initiative to help anyone in the past."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said: "Who said I haven't taken the initiative to help others? Didn't I just help Ru Shui?"

Hearing this, Tian Zao was startled and asked subconsciously: "Brother, have you fallen in love with Zheng Hongying?"

Zhou Rushui's face turned red when she heard this, and Li Xiuzhu heard this and flicked Tian Zao's head with his finger, causing her to cry out "Ouch".

Li Xiuzhu then said angrily: "In your heart, do I just help others because I care about their wives?"

Zhou Rushui hurriedly said: "Sister Zao'er, Brother Li really helped me before. I answered Brother Li because I had nothing to repay. I was the only one who could barely take action. It's not Brother Li's problem." .”

Tian Zao curled his lips when he heard this and said, "But aren't most of the women in the family helping out? I'm not wrong."

Li Xiuzhu was startled when he heard this. After thinking about it for a moment, it seemed that it was true and quite reasonable.

But this is not his problem, most of it was arranged for him by Chen Xueru.

Time flies, the new year is approaching, and the first year of this disaster year has finally passed.

Li Xiuzhu was looking at the potted plants in front of Yan Bugui's house when suddenly a hurried figure ran into the courtyard.

"It's a disaster, something big has happened."

Li Xiuzhu and Yan Bugui were startled at the same time, and the next second Li Xiuzhu had a vague guess in his mind.

Could it be that Dongxu still didn't escape the disaster?

Naturally, Yan Bugui couldn't guess it, so he asked directly: "Lao Yi, what happened?"

"Dongxu, something happened to Dongxu."

Hearing this, Yan Bugui was startled and asked: "Dongxu? Hiss~ Could it be that there was another accident?"

Yan Bugui thought of Sun Weimao, who lost one of his legs with the blow that broke the hanging. Wasn't it true that Jia Dongxu was also broken off?

Yi Zhonghai said while running towards the intermediate hospital: "He is still in the hospital. I will inform Jia's family first."

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai had already run into the middle courtyard, Yan Bugui put down the scissors in his hand and said, "Come on, brother, let's go take a look."

Li Xiuzhu nodded and followed, but he felt a little emotional.

He has tried hard to save Dongxu, but unfortunately he still failed. He just doesn't know what Dongxu's situation is now, whether he is alive or dead, disabled or well.

Mrs. Jia Zhang of the Jia family was embroidering shoes today when her heart suddenly trembled and the awl in her hand suddenly stuck into her hand.

Looking at the red dots on her hands, Jia Zhang's heart tightened and she hurriedly said: "Hongying, hurry up...get me some medicinal wine, I'm going to prick my hands."

Zheng Hongying did not move, but looked at Jia Zhang and said, "Mom, I'm a little uncomfortable. My chest is tight. Is something wrong?"

"What are you talking about, damn girl? What could happen? Why don't you hurry up and get me some medicinal wine?"

Zheng Hongying was speechless. She went to get the medicinal wine and just wrapped it for Jia Zhang, when she saw the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, which shocked the two of them.

Before Jia Zhang could scold him, he saw clearly that the person coming was Yi Zhonghai.

As soon as Jia Zhang's words were swallowed back, she heard Yi Zhonghai gasping and saying: "Sister-in-law of Jia's family, Hongying, something bad has happened. Dongxu had an accident. Now he has been sent to the hospital. Hurry up." Go check it out.”

For a moment, their heads buzzed, and their minds went blank.

Zheng Hongying's body went limp and she fell to the side. Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai was on guard and quickly stepped forward to give her a hand.

It took a few seconds for the two of them to regain their ability to think. Jia Zhang burst into tears and immediately cried loudly: "Dongxu, my Dongxu, why don't you want your mother anymore?" Woohoo~”

Zheng Hongying, on the other hand, stabilized her expression that was about to collapse, and tried to say calmly: "Master, which hospital is Dongxu currently in? Is his injury serious?"

It was only when Mrs. Jia Zhang realized what she said that she seemed to have cried earlier, just in case her Dongxu's life was not in danger.

"Yes, yes, sir, my Dongxu is seriously injured."

I hope I don't have to worry about my life, but it doesn't seem possible to not have to worry about my life. She had seen Sun Weimao's ending back then.

Now I can only hope that everything is fine, just a minor injury.

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he sighed and said, "It's not good. You will know when you go there. He is in the third hospital now."

At this time, Li Xiuzhu and Yan Bugui also came and happened to hear this sentence.

Li Xiuzhu said: "Brother Yi, is there anything we can do to help?"

Yi Zhonghai hurriedly said: "You take Jia's sister-in-law and Hongying to the third hospital first, I will go there slowly."

Li Xiuzhu glanced at Jia Zhang, who weighed at least 150 kilograms, and Zheng Hongying, who weighed about the same. He immediately said: "Now the car is not at home, only the bicycle is. It is not convenient to give Hongying a gift."

"Hongying, you can take a rickshaw. After all, you are pregnant. If we fall in a hurry, it would be a big sin."

"Brother Yan, you take Jia's sister-in-law with you on your bicycle, and I'll take the uncle with me. Let's take a walk first."

Yan Bugui nodded when he heard this and said quickly: "Okay, I'll push the bicycle. Brother, you can push the bicycle too."

Li Xiuzhu nodded and left, and in a blink of an eye, only Yi Zhonghai and three others were left.

Yi Zhonghai and the others didn't think there was anything wrong with what Li Xiuzhu said. Yi Zhonghai hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law Jia and Hongying, let's go to the door quickly."
