Chapter 633: Xu Daming and Qin Huairu Argue at the Gate Over Shazhu's Cause of Death

~13 min read 2,405 words

Qin Huairu naturally understood the meaning behind Xu Daming's words, specifically what it referred to—nothing more than an allusion that the Jia family had done something wrong to Shazhu, worrying that Shazhu would have ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night.

In response.

She had only one method.

To deny it stubbornly.

Seeing that onlookers had gradually stopped to watch the spectacle at the Siheyuan gate, Qin Huairu felt a deep sense of sorrow in her heart.

She secretly thought Xu Daming truly deserved to die, choosing such a crowded moment to come to her doorstep specifically to talk about Shazhu.

What a bastard.

The matter of Shazhu, no matter how loudly proclaimed, had nothing to do with the Jia family; it must be pushed aside, and she rebutted Xu Daming's accusations with a stubborn, hard-mouthed denial like a dead duck.

"Why should I be afraid of Shazhu? Shazhu is my husband, I am Shazhu's wife, we have lived together for so many years, treating each other with respect, loving each other more and more—why should I fear Shazhu? Shazhu loves me, and I love Shazhu."

Her voice suddenly rose considerably.

Qin Huairu wanted to use her raised voice to demonstrate the Jia family's clear conscience regarding Shazhu, to show that Shazhu's death had nothing to do with the Jia family.

"I am a widow, I have not denied this, and I know that as a widow supporting three children and a mother-in-law, I am not worthy of someone like Shazhu, but should a widow not have her own happiness? The kindness Shazhu showed our Jia family, I have kept in my heart all my life, sighing at his goodness, acknowledging his honesty—I married Shazhu, have I done wrong? Is it just because I married Shazhu as a widow that I deserve to be blocked at the door and scolded by you, Xu Daming? What have widows done to you, Xu Daming, to deserve such a grand mobilization from you?"

Xu Daming's heart.

A chill spread through.

People alive.

Are pillars.

People dead.

Become Shazhu.

Changed truly fast.

Truly feeling sorry for Shazhu, this heM's posthumous affairs still unfinished, Qin Huairu had already forgotten Shazhu's kindness to the Jia family, and even to clear the Jia family of responsibility, openly spoke some so-called words.

Clearly intending to put the blame chamber pot back on Xu Daming's head.

The cheapest, most worthless way of repaying kindness in the world is the Jia family's constant, hollow talk of repayment with no real benefit.

This is the most worthless way of repaying kindness.

It can be called an insult to Shazhu.

He looked down on Qin Huairu.

Facing Xu Daming's contemptuous gaze, Qin Huairu continued to gild the Jia family's face, beautifying herself.

"In 60, Dong Xu died, I became a widow, with a mother-in-law and three children at home, and encountered that special time, I was fortunate to meet Shazhu, I pat my chest and speak the truth—without Shazhu, there would be no Jia family today. To be with Shazhu, how much effort did I put in, how much strength did I exert, do you know, Xu Daming?"

"I don't know how much effort you, Qin Huairu, put in to be with Shazhu, I have no energy to find out, nor do I want to, I just say one thing: Shazhu could marry a better girl without you, Qin Huairu—do you admit it?"

Xu Daming would not give Qin Huairu a chance to respond.

Continuing to recount Qin Huairu's past glorious deeds.

"I remember clearly, Shazhu in his early thirties, eyeing marriage but unable to find a wife, anxious, day after day asking people to arrange matches for him, each time you, Qin Huairu, had to come to the door—not carrying a basin saying you wanted to wash Shazhu's underpants, or saying you had brought back the washed underpants you helped him with, all the while claiming you had mended the torn places—people were on blind dates, you, as a widow who received Shazhu's kindness, doing this—do you think it appropriate?"

Qin Huairu would not sit and wait for disaster.

Xu Daming's scheme.

She understood.

Nothing more than wanting to use the underpants incident to pin the blame of ruining Shazhu's blind dates on Qin Huairu.

This argument.

If it were ten or twenty years earlier.

Qin Huairu truly had no means to respond.

Fortunately, now she has broadened her horizons, reading newspapers, watching TV, listening to the radio, learning many tricks, she faced Xu Daming's killer move and hehehed.

"I know why you, Xu Daming, say this—nothing more than saying I, Qin Huairu, am shameless, deliberately sabotaging Shazhu's blind dates, I admit, I did it deliberately—I saw Shazhu bring his blind date to the door, my heart angry, my gums itching, I took the underpants and made a fuss, deliberately acting like the mistress of the house more than the actual mistress, sometimes without underpants, I let Bangeng bring the two sisters to cause trouble at the door, saying Shazhu really liked the three children of the widow in the same courtyard, just one idea—Shazhu cannot marry, and even if he did, it must be with me, Qin Huairu."

The tone shifted.

She glanced around at the neighbors present.

"Love is selfish—I like Shazhu, I think he's good in my heart, I compete for Shazhu, what wrong have I done? Who said widows cannot pursue the man they like? Who said that when one man is liked by both a widow and an unmarried woman, the widow must step aside, give the man to the maiden, and silently bless them? I don't care about others—I, Qin Huairu, like a man, even if I am a widow, I must take him back."

A voice ringing with force.

Showing Qin Huairu's clear conscience.

Someone nearby even shouted approval.

Xu Daming stared blankly, foolishly looking at Qin Huairu before him like a stranger, not expecting her to directly admit her scheme.

This exceeded Xu Daming's expectations.

In Xu Daming's understanding, Qin Huairu should have denied it as much as possible; he tried to calm himself, then began talking about widows getting IUDs.

"Even if you, Qin Huairu, want to marry Shazhu, why didn't you tell him about the IUD? You let Shazhu die out—wouldn't that be better."

"Who said Shazhu died out? You think Shazhu is like you, Xu Daming, with no continuation of incense—I tell you, you are wrong, you forgot about Hexiao."

Qin Huairu then seemed to have seized the chance to prick Xu Daming's heart.

She spoke eagerly about Louxiaoe.

"You, Xu Daming, once did wrong to Louxiaoe, you even nearly forced her family to death, Louxiaoe was with Shazhu, they gave birth to a son named Hexiao—Xu Daming, the one who truly died out is not Shazhu, it is you, Xu Daming."

"Qin Huairu, I admit I, Xu Daming, cannot have children, but do you dare admit Shazhu was driven out by your Jia family to freeze and starve to death? Why did I say 'no fear of ghosts knocking at midnight'? Because your Jia family did wrong to Shazhu—Shazhu could work, could earn money for your Jia family, you treated him as kin, but when he could not move, became paralyzed, needed your care, you threw him away like trash—do you dare admit it, Qin Huairu?"

"You?"

"What 'you'? You dare not admit it, because you know admitting it means your Jia family will cause death—think, even Dorgon couldn't handle a widow, but your Shazhu could—Qin Huairu, wait and see, you won't have a good end, neither will your Jia family."

Xu Daming faced the crowd.

He shouted out Shazhu's tragic death details, word by word.

"Neighbors, do you know? Shazhu died because he was paralyzed, unable to control his bowels, despised by the Jia family, driven out by them to die miserably."

"Xu Daming, you're full of it, Shazhu did it to avoid dragging us Jia family down, he crawled out on his own to end himself, he died, we Jia family are also sad, Xu Daming, you don't have people like you, always putting shit pots on our Jia family's heads."

Qin Huairu cried and sobbed as she spoke of some past events.

The focus was on Xu Daming and Shazhu not getting along.

Wanting to use this matter.

To make it round.

"There are many old neighbors and old residents around, who doesn't know you Xu Daming have always been at odds with Shazhu, when you two meet, it's either pinching or fighting, you Xu Daming can't stand Shazhu, Shazhu can't stand you Xu Daming, you've always envied Shazhu."

"I envy Shazhu? I envy giving his widow a helping hand? I envy him being tightly controlled by the widow? I envy him being kicked out of the house by the widow and her children to die miserably? I envy a hammer."

"You envy Shazhu having a son, his son is still your Xu Daming's ex-wife Louxiaoe and Shazhu's child, Hexiao's existence made you Xu Daming become a poor worm stepped on by Shazhu for life, for your ridiculous self-respect in your heart, you deliberately came to the Siheyuan gate to put hats on our Jia family, to put hats on Shazhu, you insist we Jia family kicked Shazhu out to die miserably, it's nothing but saying Shazhu is blind, shouldn't have helped our Jia family, Xu Daming, admit it, I Qin Huairu saw through your scheme long ago."

"Pa pa pa!"

The sound of clapping.

Came from Xu Daming's hands.

Listening to the widow's words, Xu Daming had to admit, he underestimated the widow.

This showdown.

Xu Daming lost.

And that's just it, he lost.

"Qin Huairu, you say Shazhu did it to avoid dragging you Jia family down, he crawled out to end himself, but why did someone hear Shazhu cursing your Jia family as beasts, saying your Jia family are all ungrateful white-eyed wolves, Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu, Bangeng, Xiao Dang, Huaihua, each is a beast that eats people without spitting bones, saying the most blind thing in his life was listening to Yi Zhonghai's words, treating your Jia family as treasures."

Qin Huairu's heart.

Mentioned the throat.

This is also her biggest worry.

Shazhu initially lay paralyzed in bed, the Jia family's five animals also thought about properly repaying Shazhu, but when Shazhu's feces and urine kept coming at them again and again, forcing them again and again to wash his feces and urine clothes, that feeling of disgust welled up in their hearts.

Thinking about having to clean Shazhu's clothes full of feces and urine.

The gratitude to repay Shazhu was also forgotten completely.

They adopted the most effective method, you Shazhu aren't you eating pulled and drinking sprinkled?

Good.

I will control him from the source, thinking of not giving you food, not giving you drink, your stomach empty, naturally you won't have feces and urine on you.

Doing this.

Effectively solved Shazhu's problem of feces and urine in his pants, but also made Shazhu starve again and again.

Originally a half-paralyzed patient.

Body weak.

No resistance.

No food in the stomach.

One plus one greater than two formula instantly holds, making the already snow-on-frost Shazhu's body become even more unbearable.

Starved for several days.

Shazhu, starved to the point of having no way out, was finally angered by the Jia family's actions, he cursed Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu and others with the most vicious words in this world, saying they are ungrateful and not even fit to be human.

Qin Huairu thought Shazhu cursing like this wasn't good, so she adopted a not-a-method method, stuffing Shazhu's mouth.

Thinking if you can't curse, my ears will be quiet.

Of course.

The most important point.

Is Qin Huairu worried someone heard Shazhu cursing them, attracting some investigators, letting the Jia family get in trouble.

Upon hearing Xu Daming mention these things.

Qin Huairu instinctively felt guilty a bit.

Without thinking, she shouted a sentence.

"Shazhu's mouth is all blocked, how did you hear."

Before the words landed, Qin Huairu knew things would go bad, this talk reaching He Yushui's ears, not good, taking the chance while everyone around hadn't reacted yet.

She made a remedial move.

"Xu Daming, you're truly a pure scoundrel, I Qin Huairu have seen through, you clearly came with the thought of destroying our Jia family, you think putting a shit pot on our Jia family's heads, you Xu Daming can have your own kids, stop dreaming."

Regardless of whether people around believe or not.

Anyway Qin Huairu must say this.

Just as she finished speaking, preparing to continue arguing with Xu Daming, Xu Daming with a weird smile patted his butt and left the Siheyuan gate.

He left so carefree.

Qin Huairu was stunned.

She looked at the people around, saw some faces with playful expressions, hurried back to the Siheyuan, just walked a few steps, thought of something, turned back from inside the Siheyuan, facing the neighbors, said she wants to go talk to He Yushui about the Jia family handling Shazhu's aftermath.

……

Inside the courtyard.

Bangeng, Jia Zhangshi and others.

All with a deathly pale look.

Qin Huairu and Xu Daming's arguing voices, word for word, flew into their ears.

Saying a word not afraid of jokes.

At that moment.

Jia Zhangshi and Bangeng they all clenched a handful of sweat, fearing Qin Huairu would be confused by Xu Daming's words, they stated some facts, letting the Jia family face great disaster.

Fortunately.

Qin Huairu held up under the pressure and perfectly used words to temporarily smooth things over.

Why only temporarily?

Because the matter hasn't been settled yet.

Shazhu's body is still here, and the funeral arrangements haven't been made—when will he be buried in the ground, and when will this matter finally be considered over?

Jia Zhangshi regretted it.

Bangeng was frightened afterward.

They realized that in driving Shazhu away, they had acted too arbitrarily, completely without considering the consequences, purely relying on a head full of donkey dung to recklessly and thoughtlessly do whatever they wanted.

This damn idea was all Jia Zhangshi's.

Think about the benefits Shazhu left behind—what good would raising him again do?

Too bad.

After hearing Jia Zhangshi's words, they caused Shazhu's death.

Only then did the Jia Family end up in this awkward situation they now face.
