"If it wasn't for the fact that you and Silly Pillar were in a relationship, this wouldn't have happened! It's fine if you're flirting, but you've even caused a scene. I won't let you off even if I become a ghost!”
As he spoke, he slapped Qin Huiru again, pulling her hair and face." Pa! Pa!"
Qin Huairu did not make a sound or retaliate when she was hit. She only continued to cry.
She regretted it! If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have seduced Silly Zhu and used him. Now, this was retribution!
The people in the courtyard had seen enough of the old merchant's house and turned to continue discussing the Deaf Old Lady.
"I went to her room to see her before. She doesn't look good. Her eyes are sunken in. It's scary!”
"I wonder how long this Deaf Old Lady can last.”
"Get someone to bring some ginseng over and boil some water for her. Perhaps it can last a few more days.”
However, the Deaf Old Lady's condition was worse than everyone had expected. She could not make it that night.
Aunt Yi shouted from the Deaf Old Lady's room.
"Not good! The Deaf Old Lady can't take it anymore!"
When the people in the courtyard heard this, they all rushed into the Deaf Old Lady's house. Those who could not enter would lean on the window and look inside.
Grandpa One and Auntie One knelt by the bed and wiped their tears. The deaf old lady was so thin that she was only left with a handful of old bones. Her eyes were sunken and cloudy, and her mind was not very clear. She only muttered.
"Silly Zhu, my grandson!"
Seeing her like this, everyone in the courtyard house was moved, and their expressions were filled with pity.
First Uncle wiped his tears." Old Madam, Silly Zhu can't come."”
The deaf old lady turned a deaf ear and only called out Shazhu's name in a daze.
Grandpa One couldn't stand it anymore and sent people to the detention center to plead for mercy. He asked Silly Zhu to come back and take a look at the Deaf Old Lady.
Even though he knew it was impossible, he still wanted to give it a try.
"Drink some water."
Aunt Yi fed some water to the deaf old lady, but she was suddenly knocked over by her wave of her hand.
"Pa!"
The porcelain bowl fell to the ground and shattered.
The Deaf Old Lady's sunken and turbid eyes suddenly became lively. She even sat up shakily. Her sharp eyes swept across the crowd as she sneered.
"What are you all doing in my room?! Are you thinking that this house will be yours if I, the deaf old lady, die?!”
"Don't even think about it! Even if I die, my house will be left to my droopy Sun Silly Zhu! Don't even think about it!"
Then, she glared at Aunt One and said sinisterly," What did you want to give me to drink just now? Are you trying to poison me?!”
"You poisonous woman, an old hen that can't give birth to children. If I had known earlier, I would have asked Yi Zhonghai to divorce you!”
The people in the courtyard house were a little embarrassed and angry at her words.
Especially Aunt Yi, who was so angry that tears were flowing. Although she knew that the Deaf Old Lady was old and muddle-headed, she could not poke at her sore spot like this.
Yes, she couldn't give birth to a child. Otherwise, Yi Zhonghai wouldn't have entrusted Silly Zhu to take care of him in his old age. But how could she be blamed for this? This was not something she could control!
This deaf old lady was so mean even when she was old and muddle-headed before she died!
Indeed, everyone in the Siheyuan could tell that the Deaf Old Lady had recovered.
The Deaf Old Lady waved her hands and shouted," Where's Silly Zhu? Quickly call Silly Zhu back! Just tell the Deaf Old Lady that I miss him and want to see him!”
The person sent by Yi Zhonghai to look for Silly Zhu came back at this time and said with a sad face.
"No, Master Yi, the detention center said that Silly Zhu can't leave the detention center without permission. This is the rule!”
Yi Zhonghai had been the First Master of the Siheyuan for so many years. Everyone in the Siheyuan was used to calling him First Master, and it was impossible to change that.
Yi Zhonghai sighed and held the Deaf Old Lady's hand.
"Old lady, Silly Zhu can't come!”
When the Deaf Old Lady was still in her final moments, her mind was in a blur. When she heard Yi Zhonghai's words, she suddenly burst into tears and cried out.
"Silly Zhu, my grandson, it's hard for me to see you even if I want to.”
" God, what sin have I committed in my life? I have no children in my life, and I can't even see my only relative when things come to this-"
After saying that, she suddenly seemed to have exhausted all her strength and fell down, her head hitting the pillow.
Tears flowed down the corners of her eyes and onto the pillow.
Thinking of what had happened these past few days, she finally regretted it!
If she and Silly Zhu had not harmed Xu Jinyan, none of this would have happened. Silly Zhu would not have been captured, and she might have been able to live a few more years!
Regret, she regretted it!
Unfortunately, it was too late. Everything was set in stone.
Suddenly, Grandpa One cried and shouted," The Deaf Old Lady is gone!”
Everyone in the courtyard heard this and looked over. Sure enough, the Deaf Old Lady was no longer breathing.
The deaf old lady, who had been a tyrant in the courtyard for decades, died miserably just like that.
She was dead, but her body was still here. He had to hold a funeral for her.
First Uncle thought that the Deaf Old Lady had no children and Silly Zhu was not here, so he wanted to discuss the funeral with the people in the courtyard.
Who knew that those people would run faster than one another. Each and every one of them was afraid to avoid it, and in a moment, they had run away without a trace.
Aunt San had some conscience. She turned around and said to Grandpa Yi after running halfway.
"Master Yi, don't blame us for being ruthless. The key is that the Deaf Old Lady was punished by the people from the street office yesterday. We are all ordinary people and are afraid of being implicated!”
"We all know that Silly Zhu and the Deaf Old Lady are the closest to each other in your family. I'll leave the funeral to you!”
With that, Aunt San ran away in a hurry, afraid that Grandpa Yi would ask her to stay behind to hold the funeral for the Deaf Old Lady.
Aunt Yi was furious and scolded the people in the courtyard house for being heartless.
Old Master Yi wiped his tears and fell silent. He had long expected that the people from the Siheyuan would not take care of the Deaf Old Lady's funeral.
He said to Aunt Yi," Let's clean up the Deaf Old Lady overnight and place her in the mourning hall so that she can hold her funeral.”
The next day, the courtyard was hung with a white banner.
Grandpa One and Auntie One acted as filial sons and grandchildren to mourn for the deaf old lady. They knelt in the mourning hall and burned paper money.
The other Siheyuan people were afraid of being implicated, so no one went to send Mrs. Deaf away.
There were only two people at the funeral, and they looked very miserable.
Suddenly, an ear-piercing sound broke the silence.
"That old deaf lady is finally dead. It's all karma!”
