"This child is so good! I like it very much! In the future, he will definitely treat our daughter well.”Xiao Zao's mother was very happy.

"I know. His words made me want to cry.”Xiao Zao's father was even happier.

"A son-in-law is half a child. When I marry someone in the future, you will have two sons.”Xiao Xing brought the fish sausage into the house.

The couple couldn't stop smiling. Wang Fujing had said this just now.

Nowadays, the preference for sons was very serious. Their family only had two daughters, so they were mocked for not having a son.

Xiao Zao's mother's health was too poor. Otherwise, she would definitely have another child.

Xiao Zao's father felt sorry for his wife. Even if he was stabbed in the back, he would not let his wife take the risk.

Although they were born and raised in the countryside, the couple had never quarreled.

Xiao Xing and Xiao Zao grew up in love, so they were simple and kind, and they would love others. They would think of others in everything.

……

At his aunt's house,

Xiao Zao blushed and lowered her head.

Meng Cuiping held her hand tightly.

Her parents were not around, but her aunt was still her mother.

Wang Fujing was her nephew, and she had watched Meng Xiaozao grow up.

And she was the matchmaker between the two of them. There was no better arrangement than this.

If Wang Fujing did not learn well, he would be Meng Cuiping's nephew. She would not introduce Meng Zizao to him.

This was enough to show how good Meng Zizao was.

In the past, Xiao Zao had treated her like her own daughter. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that no one was worthy of her.

Now that Xiao Zao was treating her like a daughter-in-law, they felt that she was the best daughter-in-law.

……

South Luogu Alley, Siheyuan.

Qin Huiru washed her clothes after work and returned to her room.

Jia Zhangshi urged her to hurry up and cook.

Qin Huairu, who had been tired for the entire day, had no appetite.

Today, He Yushui brought his female classmate over to play.

Silly Zhu had brought back three boxes of leftovers, but he didn't give her a single one.

This made the Jia and Zhang mother, who were used to eating, very unhappy. They could not scold Silly Zhu, so they vented their anger on Qin Huiru.

There were steamed buns, cabbage, sweet potatoes, and some wild vegetables at home.

Jia Zhangshi and her son frowned when they saw this.

Qin Huiru was about to cook when Jia Zhangshi fiercely knocked her aside.

"If you can't count on Silly Zhu, can't you think of another way?”Jia Zhang-shi looked disgusted.

"I only have that much money a month. What can I do?”Qin Huairu cried from the pain.

She wasn't feeling well today, and Jia Zhang-shi didn't know how to feel sorry for her.

This hit caused her lower abdomen to ache. Jia Dongxu was furious when he heard her talk back.

"You have to listen to whatever my mom says. What right do you have to talk to my mom like that?”Jia Dongxu was furious.

"Grandma, I want to eat meat! I want to eat sausages!" He didn't want to eat cornbread either.

Ever since he ate the white rubber and knocked out all his teeth, he had become more and more picky about what he ate.

Ken's cornbread made his gums hurt, but he would be fine if he ate sausages and meat.

Qin Huairu clutched her lower abdomen as she squatted on the ground. Jia Zhangshi glanced at her from the corner of her eyes and did not think much of it.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Qin Huairu still hadn't moved, Jia Dongxu walked out with his crutch.

Jia Dongxu, who was missing an arm and a leg, went straight to Wang Fujing's house in the backyard with a stick.

He had long wanted to come to Wang Fujing's house, which was full of fish and meat.

Usually, the rolling mill was very punctual.

Today, Wang Fujing finally left.

The stick was guarding the courtyard for him. If he found Wang Fujing coming back, he would immediately cough twice and come out.

The layout of Wang Fujing's room was very simple. There was a bed, a table, a cupboard, and a stove that burned gas.

There were a few calendar hanging on the wall, as well as fish, sausages, and bacon.

Jia Dongxu lost one leg and one arm, and the other half of his body was supported by crutches.

So he couldn't get anything high up. He could only lean against the cupboard and poke the bacon and sausages on the wall with his walking stick.

He wanted to poke all the bacon and sausages off the wall.

This was very difficult for a cripple like him. Fortunately, he had perseverance.

After a few tries, the first sausage finally came out, followed by the second and third...

When he was done with the bacon and sausages on the wall, he had to pick them up from the ground with his walking stick.

Because he was missing an arm and a leg, once he squatted on the ground, it was difficult for him to stand up without help.

He picked up the bacon and sausages as he ate. It was not easy to see so much meat, so of course, he had to eat first.

Ever since his accident, the family's life had been getting worse and worse.

It had been a long time since he had eaten meat to his heart's content.

After eating two sausages and a piece of cured meat in one go, Jia Dongxu burped contentedly.

He stuffed the remaining bacon and sausages into his arms and saw white flour, rice, and oil in the cupboard.

Jia Dongxu stuffed the white flour into his arms, the rice hung on his walking stick, and the oil pot was clenched with his teeth.

Just as he was about to leave, he found a wad of money in the drawer.

Jia Dongxu's heart thumped when he saw the wad of money. He took it out and counted more than 60 yuan.

Wasn't this Wang Fujing's monthly salary? He had to take this money.

This time, their family could have a good New Year. Jia Dongxu stuffed the money into his shirt pocket.

Then, he started to walk towards the door because he had too many things.

He walked unsteadily, unwilling to put anything down.

Therefore, he could only try his best to keep his balance. As long as he left this door, he could get the stick to help him get it.

Jia Dongxu took a step forward, and the solid wood cabinet tilted forward a little.

He thought that it was because he was carrying too many things, so he did not realize that his walking stick was moving forward against a wire.

When he was one step away from the door, he heard a creak behind him.

The outer cabinet leg of the solid wood cabinet broke, and the cabinet that was more than two meters tall smashed toward Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu turned around and saw the cupboard falling on him. He hurriedly ran for his life.

Jia Dongxu lost his balance and fell forward.

"Clang!"

"Kacha!"

A dull thud was heard, followed by the sound of bones breaking.

"Ah ~"

Then, a heart-wrenching howl sounded.

The stick runner heard the noise and ran in. When he opened the curtain, he was scared silly.

Then, the deaf old lady next door and Xu Damao came over.

Second Uncle's family also came. By the time Jia Zhangshi came over to inquire, everyone in the courtyard was already there.

Qin Huairu stood at the door with a face as red as a pig's liver. Jia Zhangshi was sprawled on the ground, wailing.

Jia Dongxu, who was hit by the cupboard, opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound.

Everyone moved the cabinet away in a flurry and found that Jia Dongxu was holding a bacon sausage in his arms.

The money in his pocket also fell out, and a whole pot of oil spilled on the ground.

The room was filled with the fragrance of peanut oil, and there was rice and white flour on the crutch.

When carrying the cabinet, Shazhu worked the hardest. Uncle One commanded everyone to send Jia Dongxu to the hospital.

In the end, it was still Shazhu who carried Jia Dongxu. The others were unwilling to touch this cripple.

Qin Huairu could only beg Silly Zhu. After all, he was the easiest to deal with.

Silly Zhu carried Jia Dongxu to the hospital while Qin Huiru and Jia Zhangshi followed behind.

Aunt Yi helped to look after the children at home. After they were sent away, the three old men looked at each other.

Silly Zhu carried Jia Dongxu and walked as fast as flying. Jia Zhangshi's heart was in her throat.

Qin Huairu was disappointed. When she saw Jia Dongxu being hit by the cupboard, she thought that he had been smashed to death.

Who would have thought that it would only break an arm?

He was sent to the emergency room of the hospital and needed to be hospitalized after being treated by the doctor.

His remaining arm was broken and he needed to be hospitalized for a few days.

If there were no other problems, he could go home and recuperate in a few days.

This arm needed to be fixed for a long time, or else the broken part would not grow back.

The doctor's conclusion was to rest for four months. If he had sufficient nutrition, he would recover faster.

However, that would still take about three months. Otherwise, the place where it was broken could break again at any time.

The treatment fee for this time plus the seven days of hospitalization was 18 yuan in total. The follow-up treatment fee would be calculated separately.

The doctor asked Qin Huairu to pay the money. She asked Jia Zhangshi for money, but Jia Zhangshi refused to give her a single cent.

In the end, it was Silly Zhu who paid the money for her. She said that she borrowed it, but she didn't return it.

……

Siheyuan,

Wang Fujing had just reached the door.

Third Uncle stopped him and muttered a few words.

Then, he pushed the cart to the backyard. Xu Damao was arguing with Grandpa Yi.

Many people in the courtyard surrounded his door.

"The upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked. Jia Dongxu is already like this, yet he still steals things.”

"Isn't that so? A father stealing and a son keeping watch.”

"Do you think Jia Dongxu will be smashed to death this time?”

"No, have you forgotten that old saying? Third Uncle, what does that old saying say?”

"Good people don't live long! A scourge lasts for a thousand years!"

"Ah, right! Just this sentence! People like Jia Dongxu are still alive."

The man glanced at the Deaf Old Lady after saying that. His words had a double meaning.

Who asked her to always protect the Jia family? Everyone had long been dissatisfied with her.

Everyone was discussing animatedly when they saw Wang Fujing behind Third Uncle.

The scene suddenly became silent, and then everyone left the backyard.

Seeing that First Uncle was about to speak, Xu Damao spoke first.

He told the whole story, even saying that First Master had absolved the Jia family.

Second Uncle waited at the side to watch the show, while the Deaf Old Lady stood at the door of her house without saying a word.
