Chapter 166

Qin Huairu pleaded: "Please give the money to treat Banggeng's leg first. I'll definitely pay you back when I get my salary. Banggeng's injury can't be delayed."

Jia Zhangshi snorted: "Hmph, your salary isn't even enough for food, how will you pay me back? I won't touch my retirement money; you figure out Banggeng's medical expenses yourself."

Banggeng lay on the hospital bed, staring at Jia Zhangshi with resentment.

How could this be his grandma!

She was simply a cold-blooded and ruthless bandit, even snatching the medical expenses for his leg!

A flash of cunning crossed Jia Zhangshi's triangular eyes: "Go find the Eldest Uncle and have everyone in the courtyard help our family."

Qin Huairu felt heartbroken for Banggeng and, for the sake of money, had to go home to find the Eldest Uncle.

After Qin Huairu's tearful plea, the Eldest Uncle's kindness was suddenly aroused, and he enthusiastically organized a donation for Banggeng's leg treatment.

After leaving the steel rolling mill, Cao Weiguo rode his bike into a quiet, deserted alley.

After confirming there was no one around, he entered his portable farm silently.

He was going to his father-in-law's house tomorrow, so naturally, he couldn't go empty-handed.

He picked more than twenty bright red apples from the farm's orchard.

He took five catties of salted duck eggs from a jar.

He took two strips of homemade cured meat from the drying rack.

After getting the gifts for his father-in-law ready, Cao Weiguo rode his bike home.

Just as he reached the courtyard gate, he met the Third Uncle.

The Third Uncle exclaimed with shining eyes: "Whoa! Weiguo, you've moved the supply and marketing cooperative!"

Cao Weiguo smiled: "I'm going to my father-in-law's tomorrow, can't go empty-handed, right."

The Third Uncle said enviously: "Your father-in-law is blessed to have such a good son-in-law."

"Weiguo, there's a full courtyard meeting after dinner."

"You two shouldn't be late."

The Eldest Uncle shouted by the pool with his hands behind his back.

"Understood, we'll go over after eating."

After replying, Cao Weiguo asked the Third Uncle: "Third Uncle, what's the matter? Another full courtyard meeting."

The Third Uncle curled his lips with an ugly expression: "Hmph, Banggeng's leg was broken, and the Eldest Uncle is organizing the neighbors in the courtyard to pool money for Banggeng's medical expenses."

Cao Weiguo said annoyedly: "Great, we have to bleed again. What's the matter."

The Third Uncle said heartbrokenly: "Isn't that so? My family's life is tight, and every few days we have to donate to outsiders."
