"Qin Huairu, how dare you say that!"
Jia Dongxu, who had been reprimanded, angrily pushed his wheelchair out and started cursing at Qin Huairu.
"Couldn't you have put out the fire before you left?"
"Look what you've done! Our Jia family must have been incredibly unlucky to have married such a jinx!"
Instead of recognizing his own mistake, Jia Dongxu felt that Qin Huairu was the one who did a bad job.
My house was burned down.
The money is gone too.
Jia Dongxu could only vent his anger on Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu was completely stunned!
She had never seen such a shameless person.
It was clearly Jia Dongxu who didn't keep a close eye on the fire, but instead she was blamed for not putting it out before leaving the house?
"I took the child to the hospital!" Qin Huairu said, feeling extremely aggrieved.
"Talk back? You still have the nerve to talk back?"
Jia Dongxu slapped his thigh: "If you had put out the fire before you left, this wouldn't have happened."
"Taking the child to the hospital is just an excuse?"
"Oh dear, why is my son still feeling so unwell? Have you taken him to the hospital yet?"
Qin Huairu was so speechless after being scolded that she didn't want to say anything more.
waste!
Jia Dongxu is an incompetent good-for-nothing.
Aside from constantly complaining about this and that, everything else is completely unreliable.
I was so stupid to believe that Jia Dongxu would obediently watch the fire.
Liu Haizhong watched the commotion with amusement for a while, then noticed that something was wrong with Bang Geng.
"Qin Huairu, Banggeng's complexion is off. Didn't you take him to the hospital? Didn't he get better?"
Qin Huairu shook her head: "The doctor said that Bang Geng ate too much and his stomach couldn't digest it. He just needed to induce vomiting."
Induce vomiting?
Yi Zhonghai perked up immediately upon hearing this.
In the courtyard, no one knew more about inducing vomiting than him.
So Yi Zhonghai volunteered and cleared his throat: "Well, I'll go get some vomit-inducing stuff for Bang Geng."
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai warily.
"No need to trouble you, Uncle Yi. I have something to induce vomiting at home."
Qin Huairu was worried that Yi Zhonghai would go and dig up a hot lump of food for Bang Geng.
That was really going to kill me.
"But my house is burned to this state, Uncle, you have to save my family of three."
Qin Huairu then turned to Liu Haizhong and said.
The house was burned and flooded, so it was uninhabitable for the time being. They had to ask their neighbors for help, otherwise the family of three would have to sleep in the yard tonight.
It wouldn't matter in the summer, but the weather isn't very warm yet, and sleeping in the yard for one night would make you catch a cold.
These days, catching a cold is a luxury. If you're unlucky enough to get a high fever, it can cost a lot of money.
Liu Haizhong didn't want to get involved in this matter, since the fire was started by Jia Dongxu's negligence, and he had only himself to blame.
But if he ignored it, he worried that Yi Zhonghai would jump out and pretend to be the good guy.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Haizhong nodded: "Yes, Qin Huairu, don't worry, our courtyard is an advanced siheyuan (traditional courtyard house), and the neighbors in the courtyard will help you."
"Okay, you deal with the sticky stuff first. I'll discuss it with Lao Yan and the others, and we'll have a big meeting later."
"Thank you, Uncle!"
Qin Huairu was somewhat surprised that Liu Haizhong would convene a hospital-wide meeting for their family, so she expressed her gratitude to Liu Haizhong.
Chen Jun didn't bother with the Jia family's mess, and didn't even go to the yard to help put out the fire.
The Jia family is simply reaping what they sowed.
Banggeng came to his wedding banquet to freeload, and he didn't even ask them for money. But after eating too much, he came to cause trouble for him.
Isn't that just plain heartless?
So, right after the fire was extinguished, Chen Jun went straight back to have dinner.
He put in his best effort for this dinner, completely captivating the bride, Chen Xueru, who didn't utter a single word the entire time, just kept her head down and munching on rice.
When Liu Haizhong informed him to attend a large meeting at the Intermediate People's Court, Chen Jun waved his hand, indicating that he had important matters to attend to.
Liu Haizhong immediately understood what was going on.
What big things can you do right after getting married?
It was definitely a big event, so Liu Haizhong didn't say much and went to inform the others.
But Chen Xueru tugged at Chen Jun's sleeve somewhat awkwardly.
"What time is it? Isn't it a bit early to go to bed?"
"Take me to see the college-wide assembly; I've never seen one before."
have to!
Since it was his wife who wanted to see it, Chen Jun nodded. Anyway, his stomach was a bit full, so going to see what the commotion was like wouldn't hurt.
Just then, Xu Damao walked out of the house, patting his bewildered head.
"Second Uncle, why are you holding such a big meeting all of a sudden?"
He drank a bit too much at noon, so he knew nothing about what happened in the afternoon.
"The Jia family's house has been burned down, so we're holding a big meeting to discuss how to resettle them," Liu Haizhong explained.
The house is on fire?
Xu Damao perked up as soon as he heard that.
"Oh dear, is this karma for doing too many bad things? Hahaha, God has eyes!"
"If you ask me, there's nothing good in this family, not even that little brat Banggeng."
"Say less, we'll have a meeting at the Intermediate People's Court later." Liu Haizhong waved his hand.
"No need to wait, I'll go now."
Xu Damao shook his head and hurriedly walked towards the central courtyard. He couldn't wait to see the Jia family suffer.
Upon arriving at the Intermediate People's Court, he immediately saw the disheveled Jia family and the disheveled family of three.
Especially Banggeng, who was currently vomiting loudly in Qin Huairu's arms.
Xu Damao covered his nose in disgust: "Ugh, spitting and urinating anywhere, how rude."
“I told him at noon not to eat like that, but the kid wouldn’t listen at all. Now he’s suffering.”
"Xu Damao, get out of here!"
Jia Dongxu cursed in annoyance.
Xu Damao chuckled, not angry at all. He ran to Shazhu's house, moved a stool, and sat down to wait for the meeting to begin.
Soon, almost everyone in the courtyard had arrived.
Liu Haizhong tapped the table and got straight to the point: "Today's meeting has only one thing to do, and that is to solve the problem of where the Jia family will stay tonight."
“You’ve all seen their situation. No one can stay here tonight. It will take time to repair the house. As neighbors in the same building, we should lend a hand if we can.”
As he said this, Liu Haizhong couldn't help but glance at Yi Zhonghai, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yi Zhonghai didn't make a move.
If he weren't worried that Yi Zhonghai would interfere, he wouldn't want to get involved in the Jia family's affairs.
"There's an unused side room in the front yard, isn't there? It's a bit small, but it'll be fine for one night."
No sooner had Liu Haizhong finished speaking than a resident from the front yard spoke up.
But the third uncle, Yan Bugui, suddenly changed his expression.
An unused side room in the front yard?
Isn't that their little storage room?
“That side room is too small; the three of us can’t fit in!” Before Yan Bugui could object, Jia Dongxu raised his objection first.
