Chapter 25

~8 min read 1,432 words

Second Master Liu Hai said, "Comrade Jia Jia Jia Dongxu is an employee of our Rolling Steel Factory."

"Although his moral character isn't great, and he was having an affair with that Wang Wang Wang Dahua."

"But that doesn't mean he's dead, does it?"

Third Master added fuel to the fire: "Exactly, how could someone like that die so easily?"

"As the saying goes: Good people die young, while villains live for a thousand years."

"Didn't the Public Security comrades also say they were going to throw him in prison?"

Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu, Grandma Jia, and Yi Zhonghai all turned to look at Second Master and Third Master.

Do you know how to speak properly?

What nonsense are you spouting!

The person from the hospital security department immediately took out a piece of paper and handed it to Yi Zhonghai.

"If you can read, see for yourself."

"Our hospital never makes mistakes."

"If you don't claim the body, then go to the hospital to pay the fees, and we will cremate it for you."

Yi Zhonghai took the paper, read it carefully from start to finish, and was greatly shocked in his heart.

Jia Jia Jia Dongxu was truly dead!

He had died from an acute heart attack after medical treatment proved ineffective.

Grandma Jia pinched Yi Zhonghai and asked, "First Master, what is going on?"

"They must have made a mistake!"

Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu was already unable to speak.

Second Master and Third Master also stared fixedly at First Master.

Finally.

First Master read the medical record aloud.

Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu fainted on the spot.

Grandma Jia burst into loud wails.

Very quickly.

The entire courtyard was filled with the sounds of Grandma Jia's family mourning.

In the past, Grandma Jia would wail over matters as trivial as a sesame seed.

But back then, she was just pretending.

However, she probably never dreamed that her act would become reality, and that it would cost her her own son.

First Master pulled the other two masters along to help bring back Jia Jia Jia Dongxu's body and busied themselves arranging the funeral.

The coffin was placed in the middle courtyard, with Grandma Jia wailing incessantly.

"My poor son, how could you leave us like this? How are we, an orphan and a widow, supposed to live now?"

No!

This matter cannot be let go so easily!

My son met his end at the factory; they cannot simply ignore it.

And that childless outcast Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye; without him, my son would never have reached this point. He must pay compensation.

Looking at Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu kneeling nearby, her heart was filled with nothing but hatred.

While my son was still in the hospital, Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu was already calling for a divorce.

Now that my son is gone, she absolutely cannot be allowed to remarry.

If Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu remarries, this family will be completely finished; who will take care of me in the future?

What will become of the three children!

Yi Zhonghai was busy organizing Jia Jia Jia Dongxu's funeral, while Liu Hai was responsible for maintaining order at the scene.

Yan Yan Yan Yan Bugui pulled Sha Zhu along to buy groceries, preparing for the funeral banquet.

Taking the opportunity to pocket a few small benefits.

Sha Zhu decided to take charge of the cooking himself.

Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu's affairs are his own affairs; if he doesn't show his worth now, when will he?

As the funeral procession members returned one after another, Yan Yan Yan Yan Bugui organized people to borrow tables, chairs, and benches from every household.

Then everyone was seated according to their respective households.

"Hey, don't you think Jia Jia Jia Dongxu was too young? It's such a pity he left us like this."

"He still owes my family three jin of white flour; now that he's gone, how can I ask an orphan and a widow for repayment?"

"Your three jin of white flour is nothing; he took quite a bit from my place too. I was thinking of settling accounts later, but well, he left nothing behind."

When Jia Jia Jia Dongxu was alive, he stole quite a lot of things from everyone.

Back then, Yi Zhonghai made excuses to cover for him for various reasons.

Always saying things like the family was in difficulty, there were many children, and everyone should help each other and show understanding.

Now that Jia Jia Jia Dongxu has passed away, in everyone's eyes he got what he deserved; this is called retribution.

"I heard that Sha Zhu is personally handling the cooking today. We're in for a treat; I hear Sha Zhu is quite good at cooking."

"You don't know anything; in a situation like today, if Sha Zhu doesn't step up, will he ever have another chance to show his face in front of Grandma Jia?"

"After struggling for so many years, Sha Zhu's spring has finally arrived."

Sha Zhu, with a cold expression, kept stir-frying; his mood at this moment was just like the vegetables in the wok, churning up and down.

A heart pounding with excitement and hands trembling.

Ever since Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu first arrived at the courtyard, she had taken root in Sha Zhu's heart.

But while Jia Jia Jia Dongxu was still alive, they could not have much contact; at most, he would just carry her lunch box.

For the sake of that lunch box, Jia Jia Jia Dongxu never said a word.

Sha Zhu could only speak a few extra words to Qin Qin Qin Qin Huairu by using the excuse of checking on the child, and even then, he had to do it secretly.

Now things were different; with Jia Jia Jia Dongxu dead, Sha Zhu thought he could smoothly take over.

He worked with such vigor, little knowing that Sha Zhu's nightmare was only just beginning.

Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye did not go to attend the funeral banquet; knowing the outcome in advance, why bother joining the fuss?

Seeing Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye at home, Lou Xiao'e walked over and said, "Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye, why didn't you attend Jia Jia Jia Dongxu's funeral? Everyone else in the courtyard went."

Looking at Lou Xiao'e, Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye recalled the original drama,

where Lou Xiao'e suffered so terribly at Xu Xu Xu Xu Damao's hands yet still bore a son for Sha Zhu.

Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye felt that within the entire Sihe Academy, Lou Xiao'e was the only good person.

He was no saint, but if he could ensure Sha Zhu ended up childless with no heir, he certainly had to make a move.

Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye smiled and said, "You didn't go either."

"Jia Jia Jia Dongxu was quite disgusting even when he was alive."

"Now that he's dead, it's a blessing for the whole courtyard!"

Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye's words made Lou Xiao'e laugh; she had never realized before that Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye could be quite interesting.

"Tell me, Lou Xiao'e, you've been married to Xu Xu Xu Xu Damao for so many years; haven't you considered having a child?"

"Look, there are already several childless households in our courtyard; perhaps you should take Xu Xu Xu Xu Damao to the hospital for a check-up."

"See what's really going on; I'm just concerned about your future life as a couple."

Lou Xiao'e immediately took offense: "You're the childless one! Your whole family is childless!"

"Mind your own business, or I won't be polite."

Her relationship with Xu Xu Xu Xu Damao was still passable at the moment.

Hearing someone call her family childless was naturally unacceptable to her.

Nevertheless, a doubt arose in her mind.

Perhaps she really should listen to Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye and have Xu Xu Xu Xu Damao checked at the hospital, after all, this was no small matter.

Watching Lou Xiao'e leave, Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Jianye was thoroughly delighted; it seemed there would be more drama to watch soon.

Over at Yan Yan Yan Yan Bugui's side, he was busy organizing and hosting the funeral banquet for Jia Jia Jia Dongxu.

Yet in his heart, he had his own little calculations.

"Hosting a funeral isn't much of a burden; the main issue is that he and Sha Zhu both paid for the groceries out of their own pockets."
