Chapter 389 Yi Zhonghai's Weakness
The backyard, Xu Damao's house.
Compared with Jia's family in the middle courtyard, which was cold and indifferent, the mourning hall for the deaf old lady in the backyard was much more lively.
Today, He Daqing and Xu Damao, the dutiful sons, all ran away, and only Yi Zhonghai, a dutiful son, was left kneeling in the mourning hall to see him off.
There is no way, there are too many people who come to see the deaf old lady off.
Not only the neighbors in the courtyard came to the backyard to mourn the deaf old lady, but also many people from other courtyards in the alley came to express their condolences.
As long as someone came to express their condolences, Yi Zhonghai could only return the greetings one by one.
He almost couldn't remember how many kowtows he took today.
Suddenly, the light at the door was blocked by someone, and the room went dark, and Yi Zhonghai immediately kowtowed subconsciously to return the salute.
It was only when he raised his head that he realized that the people standing at the door were He Daqing and Jia Zhangshi.
"He Daqing, where have you gone? How can you be such a dutiful son? Hurry up and kneel down!"
Seeing He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai immediately became angry.
If He Daqing and Xu Damao, the bastards, hadn't run away long ago, would Yi Zhonghai have been kneeling in the mourning hall to kowtow to others all day long?
"Jia Zhang, are you here to mourn the old lady?"
Glancing at Jia Zhang's empty hands, Yi Zhonghai couldn't figure out what Jia Zhang was here for.
It can't be here to mess things up, can it?
"Old Yi, let's sit in the next room first, He Daqing and I have something to look for you."
Jia Zhang didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"It doesn't matter if you come empty-handed, you kowtow to the old lady first."
Yi Zhonghai ignored Jia Zhang's proposal, but asked her to kowtow to the old lady.
Jia Zhang snorted coldly when he heard the words, and stood there motionless.
She wouldn't go to mourn the deaf old lady, a dead old woman.
Not even pretending!
The deaf old lady had bullied her a lot when she was alive, and now that he had finally boiled her to death, it was too late for Jia Zhang to be happy.
Kowtow, is she worthy?
"Old Yi, the two of us have business to look for you, it's not too late to kowtow after finishing the business."
Seeing that the situation was at a stalemate, He Daqing had no choice but to stand up and rescue Jia Zhang.
"Forget it, then knock again later, if you have anything to say, just talk about it."
Yi Zhonghai did not continue to insist, after all, there is no reason in the world for a cow to press his head without drinking water.
inside.
He Daqing pulled Yi Zhonghai to sit down beside the bed, and Jia Zhang spoke to Yi Zhonghai about the joint burial of the two families.
"Old Yi, that's the thing. If we don't talk about each other as a family, it's good for everyone. Do you think that's the reason?"
Jia Zhang said, but his eyes couldn't help but kept looking at the pile of gifts in the house, all of which were sent by the neighbors and neighbors when they expressed their condolences.
Tsk tsk, probably Yi Zhonghai could make a lot of money in this funeral for the deaf old lady, right?
The house is almost full of gifts.
Even if they are all insignificant gadgets, so many of them can be worth at least a few tens of dollars, right?
It would be nice if this was given to myself.
Yi Zhonghai's eyes widened with anger, and he almost opened his mouth to curse.
Is this what a human can say?
This is so wicked!
"Jia Zhang, you should give up on this! The old lady's coffin was bought by the street office. It's useless for you to ask me."
"However, I advise you that it's best to accumulate a little virtue in life, so as to save yourself from dying and going to hell!"
Yi Zhonghai was about to get up and leave as he said that, he had nothing to say to this stupid woman, Mrs. Jia Zhang.
"Yi Zhonghai, try saying it again!"
Like an irritated tigress, Jia Zhang growled loudly angrily.
"Which one of us doesn't accumulate virtue?"
"When Lao Jia was still alive, you dared to seduce me behind his back. Would you like me to tell all the things you have done these years, and let the big guys in the courtyard judge?"
He Daqing sat aside in embarrassment, not knowing what to say for a while.
One of these two people is his own brother, and the other is his own daughter-in-law. Can I really listen to these words?
He Daqing stared intently at Jia Zhang with his ears pricked up, expecting her to reveal more news.
It turns out that Yi Zhonghai, who usually looks pious, has hooked up with Jia Zhang's long ago, and even Lao Jia doesn't know about it?
So now the question is, who is this Jia Dongxu, Lao Jia's or Lao Yi's?
"What nonsense are you talking about, Daqing is still watching!" Yi Zhonghai was so frightened that he hurriedly covered her mouth.
I can't let her talk like this anymore, or my underwear will be ripped off.
"I'm talking nonsense? What are you thinking about Qin Huairu in the past six months? Don't think I can't see it!"
Jia Zhang wanted to say more, but Yi Zhonghai quickly hugged her and blocked her remaining words.
He Daqing immediately scratched his head and scratched his head anxiously, Lao Yi is still interested in Qin Huairu?This is really old-hearted.
What about the back?
"Damei, are you short of money for Dongxu's funeral?"
"I have 20 yuan here, you can use it first, and buy a better coffin for Dongxu."
Yi Zhonghai gave generously and kindly.
Jia Zhang snatched him and handed over two sheets of Great Unity, without thinking about hiding them in the innermost part of his clothes and putting them away.
"Count you acquainted!"
"And what about what I just said?"
Jia Zhang patted her chest in satisfaction, making sure that the money had been hidden.
Since the money is in her pocket, it is hers.
The matter of Dongxu's coffin is still unresolved.
"Why, 20 yuan is not enough to buy a coffin?"
Yi Zhonghai was stunned.
Damn it, it's all the damn He Daqing's fault!
If it wasn't for him being here, he wouldn't be so confused that he would forget Jia Zhang's greedy nature.
"What are you doing with that wasted money? Doesn't the old lady have a ready-made coffin here?"
"Dongxu is the great-grandson of her old man. What happened to his family lying in the same coffin? I wonder who dares to gossip in the yard!"
Money is also needed, as well as the coffin, these are the basic requirements of the Jia Zhang family.
Dare you, Yi Zhonghai, give it a try!
Yi Zhonghai frowned and said nothing.
Others don't dare to gossip in front of you, Mrs. Jia Zhang, but you can still let them gossip behind their backs?
If this matter is not handled well, I am afraid that I will become the laughing stock of the whole courtyard in the future.
"Old Yi, I read the newspaper recently. Isn't the country advocating frugal funerals? We are also responding to the country's call."
At the critical moment, He Daqing was still at the top, and without losing the opportunity, he gave Yi Zhonghai a step down.
The whole country is advocating something, responding to the call is patriotic, let's see who dares to go against the country!
"I have to ask someone about it. After all, the coffin was bought by the street office. I don't count it if I say it."
Yi Zhonghai finally gave in.
It's not okay to be soft, Jia Zhang is holding his weakness in his hands, He Daqing is an uncontrollable time bomb, Yi Zhonghai is also cowardly.
A person has a face, a tree has a skin, even if He Daqing and Jia Zhang's two monsters are shameless, Yi Zhonghai still has shame.
Mrs. Jia Zhang snorted triumphantly, "There's no need to tell them, let's quietly carry Dongxu over at night, and the funeral will be over if our two families jointly organize it."
As Jia Zhang said, he still didn't forget to look at the gifts piled up in the house.
The two families jointly organize the funeral, and at least half of the gifts should be shared with me, right?
All the troubles can be saved, and the rest is a net profit, which is great.
