Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!

Yi Zhonghai knew that if he didn't pay, Jia Zhangshi would definitely not give up and would continue to make trouble, which would greatly affect his reputation.

He works at a steel rolling mill and only earns 400,000 yuan a month. He was hospitalized for over a month, and just food alone cost them 500,000 to 600,000 yuan. Doesn't that break your heart?

Unable to come up with a good solution and unwilling to spend the money, Yi Zhonghai could only continue thinking with a worried expression...

When He Yuzhu and his sister returned to the courtyard house and heard about this, they were very happy, but they still showed surprise on their faces.

Back home, He Yuzhu performed a Sichuan opera face-changing act, and anyone could tell he was smiling and happy.

"Brother, Jia Zhangshi's bones are broken again. This is her retribution for daring to bully us." He Yushui said, waving her little fist.

"Rain, we can be happy at home. But when we go out, don't show how happy you are about this. If you want to deal with them, you have to keep a low profile. You're still too young."

"I understand. Brother, you seem to have gotten fairer and look much better." He Yushui noticed the changes in her brother.

"Isn't it good that my brother is becoming more handsome? I'm also growing up slowly. I'm still growing, so it's normal for me to become fairer, more handsome, and taller."

"When Yushui grows up, she'll be very beautiful too; 'a girl changes a lot as she grows up, becoming more and more beautiful.' You're still young, you'll change even faster than your brother."

He Yuzhu was making excuses. He Yushui, as she grew up, wasn't particularly beautiful; she was just average-looking.

The key issue is that she's too thin on TV and has too few opportunities, which is a bit of a pity.

Damn it, I forgot about the space spring water. It doesn't have any exaggerated effects, but drinking it regularly is still beneficial.

It wasn't very effective, so I forgot to give it to He Yushui. From now on, one cup a day is still a change, even a small one. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's as good as two Mount Tais.

"Rain, I just got back. Drink this glass of water." He Yuzhu pretended to pour a glass of plain water, and from then on, he would use spring water instead of plain water.

"Brother, the water is delicious, cool and a little sweet." He Yushui finished a glass of water in one go, she liked to drink spring water.

"There will be more later. Do you want to rest for a while, or go out to set off firecrackers?"

"Rest first, then go out to set off firecrackers, and then come back to study." He Yushui has loved studying since she was a child.

He Yuzhu and his sister are talking.

Red Star Hospital!

Lying on the hospital bed once again, Jia Zhangshi, with her triangular eyes wide open, suddenly spoke to Jia Dongxu.

"My hospitalization this time is fundamentally due to the first fracture. Without the first fracture, there would be no second fracture now. Yi Zhonghai should bear full responsibility."

Tell Yi Zhonghai that he must take responsibility; my meals cannot be worse than during my last hospitalization, otherwise it will be his fault.

If He Yuzhu heard what Jia Zhangshi said, he would definitely applaud her; she wanted Jia Zhangshi to torment Yi Zhonghai.

"Mom, this time it's your own fault. A snake appeared..."

"Dongxu, let me ask you, if I were a normal person, could a snake break my bones?" Jia Zhangshi was right.

"No. Snakes are guardian snakes." Jia Dongxu understood what his mother meant, but because of his relationship with Yi Zhonghai, he couldn't say it.

"Dongxu, we don't have much money at home. You haven't been working long, and your salary is far less than Yi Zhonghai's."

He's not a good person. Mom has a good reason to make him pay, so why should she let this old man with no descendants get away with it?

I know you find it hard to speak up. You shift the blame to Mom when it comes to Yi Zhonghai, saying I'm just an unreasonable shrew and he can't do anything about me.

You tried to persuade me, but you couldn't stop me from asking for money. Tell Yi Zhonghai that, unlike last time, I'll cause a scene at the hospital and let everyone know what 'good deeds' he's done.

Yi Zhonghai values ​​his reputation most; he will definitely agree. Jia Zhangshi knew Yi Zhonghai all too well.

"Alright." Jia Dongxu was helpless. He also felt sorry for the family's money and knew that this was the best course of action. Yi Zhonghai was still no match for his own mother.

.......

Yi Zhonghai's home!

"Master, my mother..." Jia Dongxu pretended to be helpless as he arrived at Yi Zhonghai's house and told him about Jia Zhangshi's request.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. This time it was your mother who fractured her bone twice because of a snake, what does it have to do with me? I won't pay for it, I need to save money too."

"If it's a loan, we can discuss it, but your mother is just trying to extort me. I can't possibly agree to that." Yi Zhonghai seemed very agitated.

Tan Guilan remained silent, but her expression was also very unpleasant; she was extremely dissatisfied with the Jia family mother and son for extorting them.

She didn't believe that Jia Dongxu would be unable to persuade Jia Zhangshi. She thought Jia Dongxu was just going with the flow and hadn't really tried to persuade Jia Zhangshi at all.

At home, he shifted all the blame onto Jia Zhangshi. At that moment, Tan Guilan began to dislike Jia Dongxu from the bottom of her heart; he was an unreliable person.

Suddenly, the image of 'Silly Zhu' appeared in her mind again. Tan Guilan thought 'Silly Zhu' was really good. He Daqing ran away, but he took very good care of He Yushui. If he could take care of us in our old age...

"Master, my mom said..."

Damn it, Yi Zhonghai wanted to curse after hearing this. What kind of nonsense is this? For the sake of his reputation, after remaining silent for five minutes, Yi Zhonghai finally agreed.

"I gave her 300,000 yuan. This matter has nothing to do with me; the rest is up to her."

"Thank you, Master, for your great help. I just couldn't do anything about my mother..." Jia Dongxu said, feigning innocence despite having benefited from the situation.

Despite her disgust, Tan Guilan obediently handed over 300,000 yuan.

"Dongxu, take the money, go back to the hospital, and tell your mother this is the last time. Don't force me."

"Thank you, Master. I'll go tell my mother." Jia Dongxu could hear the anger in Yi Zhonghai's tone.

"Old Yi, we can't go on like this. Jia Zhangshi will become a bottomless pit for us. She comes to us for every little thing."

I'm very worried now. She was hospitalized for a second fracture, and if her leg is really crippled, she will continue to extort money from us.

As for Jia Dongxu, he's not an honest man either. I don't think he couldn't persuade Jia Zhangshi; rather, he didn't want to. Tan Guilan had her own opinion.

"What you said is what I also thought of. However, I believe that Dongxu was still passive. He couldn't persuade Jia Zhangshi, rather than that he didn't try to persuade her."

"He's my apprentice, I wouldn't dare do that, otherwise he'd be in big trouble." Yi Zhonghai has always been that confident.

"Old Yi, have you forgotten that Jia Dongxu is his only son? If you really want to persuade him, do you think Jia Zhangshi won't listen?"

Personally, I think Jia Dongxu did try to persuade her, but he couldn't convince her the first time, so he didn't try again. In Jia Dongxu's heart, we are still not as important as his biological mother. Tan Guilan is a 'clear-sighted bystander'.

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai opened his eyes wide and stared at the beam in his house, lost in thought. Tan Guilan did not disturb him.

After a while, Yi Zhonghai slowly asked, "I will make Jia Zhangshi behave herself. Jia Dongxu will take care of us in our old age. It won't be difficult to deal with Jia Zhangshi."

"Do you have a solution?"

"I'll have a way after my leg heals. She's always trying to take advantage of He Yuzhu. We can indulge her and use that 'silly Zhu' to send her in to smash stones."

We want Jia Dongxu to support us in our old age, so we can't offend him too much. The matter of sending his mother to jail can only be handled by someone else.

Jia Zhangshi offended many people in the courtyard, not just "Silly Zhu," but also Liu Haizhong, Xu Fugui, and Wu Laogen from the front yard.

"Actually, I..."
