There were three groups of people who came to him for repairs.
Captain Jia had already figured out the ins and outs of the house. It originally belonged to the Jia family, then was bought by an old man named Yi in the courtyard, but was bought back by the Jia family after only two days, and later transferred to Director Chen.
Although it changed hands three times, the job is still the same.
The fat, big-eared woman in front of me must be the mother of that young man surnamed Jia.
"Let me out? Open your dog eyes and take a good look! This house is mine!" Jia Zhangshi cursed, feeling that these workers were making money off her family and yet dared to disrespect her!
If this had happened decades ago, you wouldn't have gotten a single penny of wages.
"The house doesn't belong to you, it belongs to Director Chen!" Captain Jia explained patiently.
"fart!"
Jia Zhangshi raised her eyebrows and reached out to grab Captain Jia's collar.
During her time in the labor camp, Jia Zhangshi developed the habit of taking action rather than talking.
Everything can be solved with fists.
If you can't solve it, then your fist isn't big enough.
Captain Jia was caught off guard and received a slap from Jia Zhangshi.
"You're so unreasonable!"
After working as a renovation team leader for so many years, this was the first time Team Leader Jia had ever been slapped across the face.
"What are you trying to do? You're a worker, and you want to kick me out? Do you look down on me?"
"What are you talking about? I don't even know you, why would I look down on you!" Captain Jia was getting annoyed.
This woman was really persistent.
"Mom! Mom, let go!"
After dealing with the bicycle, Qin Huairu finally arrived at the Intermediate People's Court. As soon as she entered, she saw Jia Zhangshi beating Captain Jia.
"Qin Huairu, you've come at the right time! This guy is a snobbish jerk!"
"Quickly, get them out of here right now, and don't pay them a single penny of their wages!" Jia Zhangshi became even more arrogant when she saw Qin Huairu arrive.
"Mom, this isn't our house anymore!"
Qin Huairu reached out to pull Jia Zhangshi, but she couldn't budge her and almost got slapped herself.
"Nonsense! I've lived in this house for decades, how could I possibly mistake this place?" Jia Zhangshi shoved Qin Huairu away. "Have you lost your mind because of your pregnancy?"
This house was all too familiar to Jia Zhangshi; she had lived here ever since she married Old Jia when she was young.
Seeing Jia Zhangshi's agitated state, Qin Huairu had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Mom, Dongxu sold the house. It's Chen Jun's house now."
"Stop making a scene, the house is already messy enough."
Upon hearing this, Madam Jia froze on the spot.
It took her a good seven or eight seconds before she looked at Qin Huairu in disbelief.
"What did you say?"
"Was the house sold by Dongxu, or by Chen Jun?"
The impact of this news on Jia Zhangshi was no less than that on Jia Dongxu when he was injured at the factory.
The old house that the Jia family had inherited from their ancestors was actually sold by Jia Dongxu?
It would have been bad enough if they had sold it, but they sold it to Chen Jun, the Jia family's mortal enemy!
"That's right!"
Qin Huairu nodded vigorously: "He not only sold the house, but also our family's workstation at the steel rolling mill."
boom!!!
The news struck Jia Zhangshi like a bolt from the blue.
I've lost my job too?
If the house was the foundation of the Jia family's life in Beijing, then their jobs were the source of their confidence to stay in Beijing.
Having a job means having an income every month.
Moreover, this job can be passed down from father to son, and from son to grandson, so that generations can work in the factory.
But now not only have I lost my house, I've also lost my job.
This means that the Jia family has lost all support in the city, and if things don't go well, they will have to pack up and go back to their old home in the countryside.
"What a spendthrift! What a spendthrift!"
Jia Zhangshi was so angry about the news that she trembled all over. Captain Jia took the opportunity to slap Jia Zhangshi's hand away.
Captain Jia learned a bit about what Jia Dongxu had been up to recently while chatting with the older women in the compound.
That guy not only sold his house and job, but he also racked up a mountain of debt.
He even wanted to send his wife to the casino to pay off his debts.
So in Captain Jia's view, Jia Dongxu was no good, but his mother and wife were pitiful.
"Where is Jia Dongxu? I'm going to break his legs!"
After regaining her composure, Jia Zhangshi took a deep breath and then picked up a brick from the ground.
This kind of spendthrift son deserves to be beaten to death; otherwise, we would be letting down our ancestors!
Qin Huairu sighed and shook her head slightly: "I don't know where he went. He hasn't come back for several days."
What is that?
Madam Jia was startled again: "Where could a man with two crippled legs go?"
For a moment, Jia Zhangshi wondered if Qin Huairu was setting her up.
Selling a house or a job is already outrageous enough.
A person with disabilities in both legs goes out and fools around for days without ever coming home?
They can't just grow wings, can they?
This is absolutely outrageous! It's outrageous beyond belief!
“He owed more than a thousand yuan at the casino, and when he couldn’t pay it back, the casino people took him away.” Qin Huairu paused and continued, “Counting the days, he hasn’t been home for four or five days.”
What!!
An even bigger thunderbolt exploded in Jia Zhangshi's mind, completely shutting her down.
gamble??
You owe more than a thousand yuan?
Any one of those things could make her so angry she'd vomit blood.
More than a thousand yuan!
How will the Jia family repay so much money?
"The house was sold to Chen Jun to pay off gambling debts. Don't cause trouble for Chen Jun. It was already a great favor that he accepted our house back then."
Since Jia Zhangshi had already reacted this way, Qin Huairu no longer held back and told her everything Jia Dongxu had done.
This included sending her to a casino to pay off debts and nearly causing her to miscarry.
Having been Jia Zhangshi's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for so many years, Qin Huairu naturally knew how much Jia Zhangshi doted on Jia Dongxu.
Therefore, if she doesn't explain everything clearly, Jia Zhangshi will definitely try to smear her.
She still needs to sell her workstations to make a living, and she can't afford to fight with Jia Zhangshi, as that would do her no good.
"He...he still wants to sell you to pay off his debts?"
Jia Zhangshi glanced blankly at Qin Huairu's belly, then looked up at the house, and then fainted.
"Oh my, you scared this old lady to death!"
Captain Jia exclaimed in surprise, then ran into the yard to call for help.
"Help! Someone has fainted in Director Chen's house!"
"Is the manager here? Quickly take him to the hospital."
Upon hearing Captain Jia's shouts, all the middle-aged women in the courtyard rushed over. However, upon seeing Jia Zhangshi lying unconscious on the ground, not a single one of them dared to approach her.
