As for Xu Damao extorting money, Sha Zhu still looked down on him.
A bad seed is a bad seed. Even after being injured by a big fat pig, he can still find someone to compensate him, and it's the Jia family, no less.
Although the Jia family may not claim to be the poorest in the entire compound, they are certainly not the most impoverished.
They lost their house, their jobs, and even the only man in the family was executed. For now, they seem to have enough to eat and drink, but once the money from selling their workstations runs out, the Jia family will really be in trouble.
Xu Damao didn't care about any of that; he was just looking to extort money from anyone he could.
In terms of economic conditions, Xu Damao is much better off than the Jia family.
"That damned thing, he's putting on quite a show!" Seeing that Xu Damao needed help to get up, Jia Zhangshi wished she could rush over and kick him a couple more times.
He's a real actor!
Anyone who didn't know better would think Xu Damao was really sick.
But Jia Zhangshi herself knew whether there was a problem or not. Although she had kicked him quite hard, it was nothing to a young man like Xu Damao.
Back then, Sha Zhu pinned Xu Damao to the ground and beat him, but he didn't even get hurt. How could my kick possibly cause Xu Damao any problems?
"You old hag, you just wait!"
Xu Damao made a harsh statement, and then was helped out of the courtyard.
After getting into Cai Quanwu's tricycle, they headed straight for the hospital.
"Mom, why are you always causing trouble? Our family's money isn't enough for you to squander!"
Qin Huairu said with a somewhat worried expression.
Xu Damao dared to insist on going to the hospital, so he probably really had a problem. Otherwise, why would he waste money on unnecessary trouble, and even spend five yuan to hire someone to take him to the hospital?
If Xu Damao is alright, everything will be fine.
But if the examination reveals a real injury, the five yuan will still be charged to them.
Jia Zhangshi really knows how to squander the money she painstakingly saved.
"Qin Huairu, you slut, are you having an affair with Xu Damao?" Jia Zhangshi glared at Qin Huairu with her triangular eyes.
The two families were arguing, and Qin Huairu not only didn't help her fight back, but she even dared to complain about her?
Isn't this siding with outsiders?
"Mom, what are you saying? How could I possibly have something going on with Xu Damao!" Qin Huairu quickly put on a wronged look.
Madam Jia snorted: "Nothing's wrong, yet you're taking his side? Anyone who didn't know better would think you're Xu's daughter-in-law!"
have to!
Seeing this, Qin Huairu stopped complaining and could only pray in her heart that Xu Damao was just faking it, otherwise the Jia family would have to suffer losses again today.
And so, after waiting for more than an hour, Xu Damao came back, chattering away.
"I want to hold a big meeting!"
"Uncle Yi, I want to call a hospital-wide meeting!"
"Bang!"
"Xu Damao has gone too far!"
Liu Haizhong, who was waiting for news at home, was furious when he heard Xu Damao's shouting.
He's the big boss in charge of the compound, so Xu Damao calling him that shows he doesn't respect him.
"Dad, Xu Damao did it on purpose!" Liu Guangqi chimed in, stirring things up.
He spent the whole day at the Lou family's house, but didn't even see Lou Xiao'e. He wanted to ask Xu Damao to pass on a message, but Xu Damao only gave him a disdainful look.
Liu Haizhong snorted and then strode out.
"Xu Damao, what are you shouting for? Isn't Yi Zhonghai the person in charge of our compound? Why are you calling him?"
"Oh, then you convene the meeting. I have something to announce!" Xu Damao glanced at Liu Haizhong and said somewhat reluctantly.
"You think you can just call a plenary meeting whenever you want? We don't have time to play your nonsense!"
Liu Haizhong wanted to take this opportunity to suppress Xu Damao, so that he would behave himself and stop causing trouble, especially by not getting involved with Yi Zhonghai.
In Liu Haizhong's view, even if Yi Zhonghai wasn't the big boss in charge, he was still his number one rival. If he were to team up with Xu Damao, things would really get complicated.
But to everyone's surprise, Xu Damao was preoccupied with extorting money and wouldn't listen to Liu Haizhong's attempts to suppress him.
"Fine, fine, Liu Haizhong, you're supposed to be the head of the courtyard house, but you don't do anything right. I'll find someone else!"
After saying that, Xu Damao started calling for reinforcements again, this time not Yi Zhonghai, but his third uncle Yan Bugui.
If you won't let me call you Yi Zhonghai while I'm in bangs, then it's okay if I call you Yan Bugui, right?
And so, the residents who had already gone home came out in droves after hearing the commotion.
Seeing Xu Damao standing perfectly fine in the courtyard, Jia Zhangshi subconsciously began to mock him.
"Ha, now you've shown your true colors, huh? Still trying to scam me? No way!"
After saying that, he put his hands on his hips, looking smug.
Standing behind her, Qin Huairu felt a pang of anxiety. If Xu Damao was really alright, why was he still clamoring for a large meeting?
The foolish Jia Zhangshi couldn't even imagine that if the Jia family's money were in her hands, it would be squandered sooner or later.
Qin Huairu realized that none of the Jia family members were reliable. Jia Dongxu gambled away the family fortune and even lost his life because of it. Jia Zhangshi was no better; she would squander any money she had.
"Uncle, you've finally arrived. This is my medical report from the hospital. Please read it to everyone."
Xu Damao ignored Liu Haizhong and limped over to Yan Bugui.
Seeing this, Yan Bugui arranged for Yan Jiecheng to go home and get a kerosene lamp. After glancing at the inspection report and confirming its authenticity, he read the report aloud verbatim.
"So it seems Xu Damao wasn't wrong about you; he really did strain his back."
Yan Bugui said to Jia Zhangshi.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Madam Jia simply didn't believe it. If her kick could really hurt Xu Damao's back, she would have killed him long ago when they fought.
"Ha, it's written in black and white. If you don't believe me, you can go to the hospital and ask a doctor!" Xu Damao shouted loudly.
Yan Bugui also said, "Mrs. Jia Zhang, the examination report is genuine."
He was, after all, the third-ranking official in the courtyard. For Jia Zhangshi to question the authenticity of the examination report was tantamount to questioning her own competence.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Jia Zhangshi rushed over, cursing and pointing at Yan Bugui's nose, shouting, "Old Yan, you damned bastard, you must have taken bribes from Xu Damao!"
"What kind of bullshit report did you give me?!"
After saying that, Jia Zhangshi actually reached out to snatch it.
But Xu Damao, who was on guard, moved aside and blocked Yan Bugui's way.
“Mrs. Jia, stop talking nonsense. Even if you tear up the report, I can still get a new one from the hospital.”
"Let's talk about the compensation. You kicked me like this, and if you don't give me an explanation, I'm going to report you to the authorities."
Xu Damao knew that Jia Zhangshi was most afraid of squatting by the fence.
The last time he was sent to a labor camp, Jia Dongxu was gone as soon as he was released.
If they arrest her again, Qin Huairu will definitely run away with Bang Geng!
