~6 min read 1,058 words

The state gives her seventy yuan a month for retirement, and the state takes care of her when she dies.

Lu Jianye said two thousand yuan, for this old woman, it really wasn't a big deal.

When the Deaf Old Lady heard this, she was so angry she stamped her feet.

"Lu Jianye, what does your divorce have to do with me?"

"It was Wang Dahua who despised you for being a dead end, that's why she divorced you."

She had so much money, but it was saved for Sha Zhu to take a wife and for her own retirement.

Lu Jianye and Xu Damao, these two bastards.

They had long been eyeing my old woman's money.

Lu Jianye said: "Is that so?"

"But Wang Dahua was forcing me to remarry just a few days ago."

"Then I'll report it to the police and let the public security comrades investigate what's going on."

Xu Damao was worried about not having a chance to suck up to Lu Jianye, so he hurriedly took the opportunity to say: "Lu Jianye, report it!"

"When the public security comrades come, I'll testify for you."

Big shots, please give flowers, please give votes, please give everything~.

024, Factory-wide notification! Sha Zhu wants revenge!

All of a sudden.

The whole place was dumbfounded.

Xu Damao can actually testify for Lu Jianye!

It seems this matter is true.

The Deaf Old Lady is actually such a person.

She took a fancy to Wang Dahua and wanted Wang Dahua to marry Sha Zhu, so she had to harm Lu Jianye into a divorce?

If next time, she takes a fancy to someone else.

Does she have to do the same thing?

For a moment, everyone couldn't help but step back a few paces, and their eyes looking at the Deaf Old Lady were different.

Seeing this, the Deaf Old Lady was completely stunned!

At her age, having lived for more than half a lifetime, she never thought she would have such a day.

Why are these people looking at her like this?

She hadn't done anything wrong, what kind of look was that!

The Deaf Old Lady was so angry her lungs were about to explode, yet she couldn't say a single word.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly came out to smooth things over.

"Xu Damao, Lu Jianye, what do you two want to do?"

"The old lady is at her age, are you trying to anger her to death?"

"Xu Damao! For this matter, Sha Zhu can only give you five hundred yuan."

"Lu Jianye, you only get one hundred!"

"Don't you two play any little tricks, we all know."

"Quit while you're ahead, hurry up and disperse!"

What?

Xu Damao's eyes widened.

Is Yi Zhonghai trying to dismiss a beggar?

Lu Jianye said directly: "Yi Zhonghai, I think you're the one playing little tricks, right?"

"I didn't know the truth before, so I didn't pursue it."

"Now that I know, you're actually compensating me with one hundred yuan?"

"Do you think I'm short of those two coins of yours?"

"I'm going to call the police right now."

"When the public security comrades come to decide for me, I'll take whatever they say I should get."

"If they say let the Deaf Old Lady go to jail, I can't help it!"

This old thing Yi Zhonghai, at this point, is still bargaining with me?

You've got some nerve!

Xu Damao immediately meant the same thing: "I'm calling the police too!"

"So what if the old lady is old?"

"Just because she's old, she can ruin other people's families?"

"She is failing to act as an elder!"

"I'm calling the police too, I don't want any money."

"Isn't the Deaf Old Lady Sha Zhu's real grandmother? Maybe this matter is related to her too, let them all go to jail!"

Xu Damao said he was leaving.

Lu Jianye also made a move to walk out.

Yi Zhonghai saw that this wouldn't do, and hurriedly called Sha Zhu: "Quick, stop them!"

"Such a small matter, you can't call the police!"

"Xu Damao, Lu Jianye, let's talk this over!"

Yi Zhonghai knew they were doing it on purpose, but there was nothing he could do about it.

He is the First Old Master of this courtyard, he wants face.

And Sha Zhu is his successor for retirement, he has to protect him!

In the end.

Yi Zhonghai didn't even consult the Deaf Old Lady and decided directly.

Compensate Xu Damao four thousand five hundred yuan, and Lu Jianye two thousand yuan.

Xu Damao still wanted to make a fuss, but Lou Xiaoe said, not a cent less.

But Lu Jianye agreed.

The old woman only had that much money on her, asking for more wouldn't yield anything.

And this account couldn't be turned over with just this little money.

Xu Damao saw the situation and agreed.

He was afraid that if he didn't agree, Yi Zhonghai would change his mind in a while.

The Deaf Old Lady took out a full five thousand yuan and was so angry she vomited blood on the spot.

Yi Zhonghai also took out one thousand five hundred yuan, which was considered a loan to Sha Zhu, and he didn't feel good about it either.

Sha Zhu couldn't save money at all, and he didn't know when he would be able to pay back this money.

But the Deaf Old Lady fainted, and Yi Zhonghai still had to pay money and put in effort.

Sigh!

It's mentally exhausting.

What kind of matter is this!

The farce in the courtyard came to an end, but people's hearts had changed.

Early the next morning.

Lu Jianye cooked himself a bowl of pickled fish noodles.

But this morning, every household in the courtyard seemed to be celebrating the New Year, almost every family was making delicious food.

White flour steamed buns, pancakes, scrambled eggs, white flour noodles...

Although it couldn't compare to Lu Jianye's delicious food, it was still good food for every household in this era.

Before, every family would send some of such "delicacies" to the Deaf Old Lady.

But now...

Are you dreaming?

The Deaf Old Lady was at home, smelling the fragrance of food in the courtyard, and was so angry she kept slapping the table!
