The bell for the rolling mill to get off work rang, and Xu Weijun also got off work.
When Xu Weijun returned to the courtyard, he heard the sound of Jia Zhang's funeral.
"What happened? Did Jia Dongxu die?" Xu Weijun thought to himself.
However, Jia Dongxu had just been discharged from the hospital yesterday. It was said that other than falling and rolling on the ground, he did not have any major injuries on his body.
He shouldn't die so quickly.
The Jia family had been spreading rumors and slandering him all these years. They even made the neighbors in the courtyard ostracize him. Xu Weijun did not want Jia Dongxu to die so quickly.
As long as Jia Dongxu stubbornly survived, it would be a punishment for the Jia family and Qin Huairu. The Jia family would not have a good life.
As long as the Jia family did not have a good life, Qin Huiru would not have a good life either. Xu Weijun was happy.
When Xu Weijun pushed his bicycle into the courtyard, he saw that there were about twenty people in the middle court.
There were the three old men from the courtyard house, the deaf old lady, and a few aunties from the courtyard house.
The Yan brothers, Liu brothers, Silly Zhu, Xu Damao, He Yushui, Wang Tiezhu and the others were also present.
Other than that, there were two policemen.
"Xu Damao, what happened?”
Xu Weijun asked as he passed by Xu Damao.
"Heh, what else could it be? The old woman went to the factory to get compensation and medical reimbursement. There was about 200 yuan, but it was all robbed on the way back.”
Xu Damao said, gloating.
In this courtyard house, Xu Weijun and Xu Damao were full, but the whole family was not hungry.
Xu Damao also ate meat and drank wine every now and then.
Since Jia Zhang-shi couldn't eat it, she cursed Xu Damao behind his back.
Now, seeing Jia Zhangshi robbed of nearly two hundred yuan, how could he not gloat in his heart?
"I didn't expect such a thing to happen.”Xu Weijun was also speechless.
He did not expect that there would be robbers at the foot of the Imperial City in this era.
Moreover, he had even robbed Jia Zhangshi, this pious old woman.
That 200 yuan was a huge sum of money in this era.
"Hehe, there's something even happier.”
Xu Damao glanced at Silly Zhu who was not far away and laughed secretly,""Silly Zhu, that dog, pretended to be a good person. Yesterday, he borrowed 98.50 yuan for Qin Huiru's medical fees. I wonder when he'll be able to get it back this time.”
Although he had a problem with Xu Weijun for not lending him a bicycle the last time, it was only because Xu Weijun reminded him that he was able to find the remaining half of the hen when the stick stole his old hen. He even received five yuan as compensation from Qin Huairu.
Therefore, Xu Damao told Xu Weijun about it.
Xu Weijun nodded.
Silly Zhu actually borrowed 98 yuan and 50 cents from Qin Huairu!
Hehe, what a fool. He was indeed a fool. He actually lent out a hundred yuan in one go.
"Silly Zhu is indeed silly.”Xu Weijun also laughed.
"Exactly." Xu Damao agreed.
Then, Xu Weijun pushed his bicycle back to the backyard.
……
In the Jia family's house in the middle court.
After nearly two hundred yuan was stolen, Jia Zhangshi was now mourning in the house. She cursed the robbers for being wicked, cursed the robbers for having no descendants, and finally asked Old Jia to show up and take the robbers away.
When the two police officers heard this, other than feeling sorry for Jia Zhangshi, they were speechless.
Now the country advocated the abolition of the four old and did not engage in feudal superstition, but the Jia Zhang family was here to invite gods to send ghosts away.
If it weren't for Jia Dongxu being paralyzed in bed, Qin Huiru's big belly, and the two children at home, the two police officers would have arrested Jia Zhangshi.
Moreover, before she brought Jia Zhangshi back to the courtyard house, the police had also inquired. Jia Zhangshi's money was targeted by the robbers. It was completely her own fault. She actually counted money in public.
If the robbers saw this, it would be strange if they didn't rob Jia Zhangshi.
Jia Dongxu lay on the bed, silent and ashen.
As for Qin Huairu, she hated Jia Zhangshi to death.
Now that Jia Dongxu was paralyzed, there would be no salary in the future.
And she was pregnant, so she couldn't work to earn money.
The entire family's livelihood for the next few months depended on that 100 yuan.
Moreover, he had to return 98.50 yuan to Silly Zhu.
Jia Zhang-shi had lived for a long time, did she not understand the principle of not revealing her wealth?
He actually counted money in broad daylight to attract thieves.
What a pig brain.
"Police officer, when can we catch the robbers?”
After grumbling about Jia Zhangshi for a while, Qin Huairu went to ask the police.
"It's hard to say. The robbers moved too quickly. Moreover, there were not many people on that road at that time, so we couldn't provide any useful clues. We could only try our best to solve the case as soon as possible and recover your losses as much as possible.”the police officer said.
The meaning was also very clear. The time to solve the case was to be determined, and the amount of losses that could be recovered was also to be determined.
"Then…then I'll leave it to you.”
After a long while, Qin Huairu finally managed to squeeze out a sentence.
"This is our duty." the police officer said.
After staying at the Jia residence for a while, the two policemen left.
"Aunt Yi, go and comfort Zhang shi.”
the Deaf Old Lady said.
"Ah, alright." Aunt Yi agreed.
"Everyone, please disperse." First Uncle said to everyone.
The Jia family was in bad luck now. First, Jia Dongxu was paralyzed, and then Jia Zhangshi was robbed. If there was still a large group of people here to watch the show, the impact would not be good.
Hearing Grandpa One's words, everyone dispersed.
However, the matter of the Jia family had become an important topic of discussion among the people of the Siheyuan and even the neighbors nearby.
……
After dinner and a shower, Xu Weijun read a book for a while and took some notes on his work before going to bed.
The rolling mill was on holiday the next day, so he didn't have to go to work. Xu Weijun made an appointment with Ran Qiuye to bring her out to play tomorrow.
Therefore, he had to sleep early tonight and recuperate.
Xu Weijun lay on the bed for a while, and soon, snoring sounded in the room.
At this moment, many people in the courtyard house had turned off their lights and were resting.
In the middle of the night, the courtyard of the Siheyuan was pitch-black, but suddenly, there was a glimmer of fire.
When the fire lit up, a figure flashed quickly and disappeared into the night.
At the same time, a burst of fire flickered, and the sound of firecrackers broke the silence of the night.
Xu Weijun instantly woke up from his sleep. He looked out of the window and saw flames shooting in the middle of the courtyard. The sound of firecrackers could not stop.
At this moment, in the courtyard house, First Uncle, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Silly Zhu, and Xu Damao's house also lit up.
"Who is so wicked to set off firecrackers in the middle of the night?”
Shazhu put on some clothes and walked out of the house. The firecrackers had also been burned out.
The courtyard was still filled with the smell of gunpowder.
