Chapter 997: Jia Zhangshi Blocks the Door

Early Morning

Sihe Academy

Cao Weiguo and his wife were eating breakfast when a noisy sound came from outside.

At first, the couple didn't take it to heart, thinking it was just another couple bickering.

There were many people in the courtyard, and trivial matters were endless, so it wasn't strange to see them often.

But the noise outside grew louder and louder, and Cao Weiguo even heard Jia Zhangshi's wailing.

Putting down his bowls and chopsticks, Cao Weiguo got up and walked out of the room.

After a while, Cao Weiguo returned with a smile: "This Jia Zhangshi really has vigorous energy, making a scene early in the morning."

Song Yulan asked curiously: "What is Jia Zhangshi doing?"

Cao Weiguo laughed: "Jia Zhangshi is taking the three children and borrowing money from door to door."

Song Yulan: "Borrowing money?"

Cao Weiguo laughed: "This Jia Zhangshi has Xiaodang and Huaihua supporting Banggeng, saying that the family has run out of food, they can't even eat, and they have no money to buy medicine for Banggeng, so she ran out to borrow money from every household

to buy medicine to treat Banggeng's leg."

Song Yulan frowned: "Hmph! This Jia Zhangshi is too annoying! Can't she just live her life peacefully? Running around all day, isn't she afraid of spraining her waist? Let's finish our meal quickly and go to work,

so this Jia Zhangshi doesn't find our house. I get a headache just looking at her."

When the couple finished their meal, locked the door, and prepared to go to work, Jia Zhangshi was blocking the main gate with the three children.

Xiaodang and Huaihua were kneeling at the gate, Banggeng was sitting on the ground holding his crutches, and Jia Zhangshi was slapping her thighs and wailing: "Neighbors, have pity on my Banggeng, help my poor eldest grandson,

my Banggeng is still just a child, if there's no money to buy medicine to treat this leg, he'll be crippled... My Jia family will remember the kindness of the neighbors, and in the future, when my Banggeng becomes successful,

he will definitely repay you door to door..."

At this time, a large group of people was already standing at the entrance, most of whom were preparing to go to work.

Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Fugui, Shazhu, He Yushui, Xu Damao, Yan Jiecheng, and others were all present, and there were many uncles and aunts pointing and gesturing on the side.

Liu Haizhong puffed out his general's belly and scolded with a straight face: "Jia Zhangshi, move aside quickly, don't delay everyone from going to work."

Yan Fugui snorted coldly: "Making a scene and wailing at the gate early in the morning is really bad luck!"

Yi Zhonghai tried to persuade her earnestly: "Old sister-in-law, let the children get up quickly, we'll talk about things tonight. What does it look like for you to block the door early in the morning? Everyone still has to go to work."

Jia Zhangshi pushed Yi Zhonghai away: "I won't! I won't leave until I borrow the money to buy medicine for my eldest grandson! I can't let my eldest grandson become a cripple! You neighbors usually

talk about loving each other, talk about helping each other when one is in trouble, you all act like living Bodhisattvas, why did you change when it came to my family? You've all become cold-hearted. Do you have the heart to watch my eldest grandson become a cripple? He's someone you all watched grow up!"

Yi Zhonghai said with a face full of kindness: "Old sister-in-law, everyone isn't saying they won't help. Our courtyard used to be an advanced courtyard, the neighbors were as close as family, and if any family had difficulties, everyone

would extend a helping hand, especially the help given to your family was not small. Now that your family is in trouble, we all want to help. How about this, tonight we will hold a general meeting,

everyone will contribute money if they have money and effort if they have effort, and we will definitely help your family get through this difficulty!"

Liu Haizhong hurriedly said: "My family has no money, Old Yi, if you want to help, then help, but don't drag my family into it."

Yan Fugui said: "Jia Zhangshi, we'll talk about the money tonight, you let the three children get up and go home first, it's freezing cold on the ground in winter, look at Xiaodang and Huaihua, they're freezing and running noses, if they get sick, that'll be another expense for your family."

Jia Zhangshi wiped her crocodile tears: "We won't leave until we borrow the money, I can't let my Banggeng become a cripple."

Xiaodang and Huaihua knelt at the entrance, crying with snot and tears, their pitiful appearance making people feel sorry for them.

Xu Damao said unhappily: "Jia Zhangshi, stop making a scene here. If I'm late for work and get my pay docked, your family will have to compensate me."

"That's right! Banggeng's grandma, we're waiting to go to work!"

"We'll talk about borrowing money later, you can't block the door and not let us out!"

"Aren't you just being unreasonable!"

"Jia Zhangshi, move aside quickly!"

"Who blocks the main gate to borrow money? It's outrageous!"

"The Jia family's face is almost being lost by you!"

"Qin Huairu, make your mother-in-law and the three children go home quickly!"

Seeing time passing bit by bit, the people going to work were getting anxious. Even the good-tempered neighbors started to complain. Being late meant being criticized. You, Jia Zhangshi, don't have to go to work, but we have to support our families!

Jia Zhangshi reached out her hand arrogantly: "If you want us to go home, that's fine, everyone lend me three or five yuan to buy medicine for my Banggeng."

"What!"

"Three or five yuan, is your Banggeng eating medicine or fairy pills!"

"Do you think my family's money is blown in by the wind!"

"Jia Zhangshi, you're going too far!"

"We don't have money, get out of the way!"

Jia Zhangshi put her hands on her hips and shouted: "Do you people have any conscience! We've been neighbors for so many years! How can you have the heart to watch our family of orphans and widows suffer! Watch my eldest grandson become a cripple? Watch my Jia family have no descendants? Your households all eat well and drink well, what's wrong with lending my family a little of the money you spend on eating and drinking? Besides, this money is borrowed, my family didn't say we wouldn't pay it back. When Banggeng works and earns a salary, he'll pay you back."

These words made the neighbors explode. Is this something a normal person could say?

Borrowing money so righteously!

Borrowing money so matter-of-factly!

Does everyone owe your family or is it owed to your family?

And wait until Banggeng works to pay it back?

How old is Banggeng?

By the time he works, the day lily will have wilted!

Besides, can this useless piece of trash Banggeng even have a job?

Besides, have you borrowed few things from the Jia family?

When have you ever paid them back?

In this day and age, no one's life is easy, why should we help your family?

Xu Damao shouted to Liu Guangtian, Yan Jiecheng, and a group of young people:

"Stop talking nonsense with this old hag, let's charge out!"

"Jia Zhangshi, get out of the way!"

"Xiaodang, Huaihua, go home quickly!"

Seeing this, Jia Zhangshi sat on the ground and opened her arms to block the way:

"No one is allowed to leave without lending money!"

"Oh my! Heavens! Open your eyes and look!"

"These neighbors are all hoping my family has no descendants!"

Cao Weiguo walked up to Liu Haizhong and whispered a few words, and Liu Haizhong nodded like a lackey.

Immediately after, Liu Haizhong pointed at the wall and shouted: "Guangtian, climb over the wall and report this, let the comrades from the police station come over, I want to see if no one can deal with this old hag!"

When Jia Zhangshi heard this, she was so scared she shouted: "No!"

If the comrades from the police station came, wouldn't she have to go in and eat cornmeal buns!

Seeing this, Qin Huairu ran out to support Jia Zhangshi: "Mom, get up quickly, don't delay everyone from going to work!"

At the same time, Qin Huairu said with a face full of shame: "I'm really sorry everyone, my mother-in-law is too heartbroken for her grandson, she lost her mind for a moment and caused trouble for everyone. I apologize to everyone on behalf of my mother-in-law."

Yi Zhonghai said with a kind face: "Huairu, I know your family isn't having an easy time. How about this, after work, I will call on everyone to help your family. You make your mother-in-law go home quickly."

Jia Zhangshi took the opportunity to step down and was supported home by Qin Huairu.

Cao Weiguo said to Xiaodang and Huaihua: "Xiaodang, Huaihua, you two go home quickly too."

Xiaodang and Huaihua climbed up tremblingly, wiping their noses and tears as they walked home.

Banggeng sat alone at the entrance, staring at Cao Weiguo with hatred, his eyes looking like they wanted to kill someone. ===== CHAPTER 999 =====

Banggeng sat alone at the doorway, staring at Cao Weiguo with a face full of hatred; his gaze looked as if he wanted to kill someone.
