Chapter 141: Taking it into consideration
"Xuanxuan, there might be something wrong with your treasure map."
The moment the door opened, He Yuzhu looked around at the back, squeezed into the house and closed the door.
He whispered anxiously in Lu Zixuan's ear:
“When I was a child, I heard He Daqing say that ever since we moved into the courtyard, the deaf woman had been looking for things in the yard.
The rooms where you and the deaf woman lived in at the beginning were originally ours.
Before liberation, the deaf woman exchanged the house in the middle courtyard where she lived with us.
It must have been changed because of some discovery. Yu Shui told me when she just learned to speak that the deaf old woman moved to the backyard and held several large envelopes all day, crying uncontrollably.
I sneaked into her dressing table and found those big envelopes, and inside them were your treasure maps.
But they are different. Hers has words on both sides, while yours only has words on one side.
I suspect that the deaf woman deliberately let you find the map to frame you. Even if she has mountains of gold and silver, we don't care, because the money is not safe.
Your mother and I can both earn money, which is more than enough to support several of us. Let’s not have any crooked thoughts, okay?
The most the deaf woman wants me to do is to cook a few meals for her, and I will do it. But you can't get into trouble, you are the hope of everyone in our family.
Xuanxuan, I don't have your brains, so I can't deal with Lao Tong, but I have strength. If it really doesn't work, I'll put a sack on him.
I don’t believe that no matter how many schemes he has, he can still scheme his body into a body of iron and steel.”
Lu Zixuan was indeed touched at this moment, and he was less wary of He Yuzhu, so he changed the subject.
"Uncle, don't worry. I'm not greedy for the money. I just want to use it to deal with Lao Tong. If I need to use force, I will definitely find you.
How is your relationship with your aunt now? Is she still sleeping in your aunt's room? They both warned me that I can't help you, and you have to rely on yourself this time."
He Yuzhu said in a somewhat arrogant tone:
"Don't worry, everything is under control. Xu Damao has also gone to work these days, so just give his team leader more food.
I have vaguely mentioned that I don't get along with Xu Damao. Now Xu Damao does the most tiring work and eats the least. If he doesn't go home to add more food, he will faint from hunger every day. This method is more satisfying than beating him up and watching him.
Your aunt has reconciled with me, and she said that she will go to Old Zheng's house tomorrow to show off her cooking skills and let us taste her home-cooked dishes. Haha..."
The next evening, after being busy all day, Lu Zixuan dragged his sore legs and followed Chen Ping and the others to the old Zheng family who had moved to the cadre building.
As soon as I entered the compound, I heard the chattering sounds, and the four of them were actively rushing to the front line to eat the melons.
As soon as I approached the crowd, I heard a series of scolding voices.
"Did I ask you to mind your own business? If you hadn't gone over and pushed him, would he have been so scared and cried so miserably?
You dare to bully us ordinary people, just because your man is the director of a steel mill?
What are you talking about for the good of my child? Why would you push him for his own good? You are just jealous that our baby eats meat every day..."
Lu Zixuan looked carefully and found that it was Dr. Song who was scolded. He immediately asked the nearby children what happened.
The matter was not complicated. Dr. Song just came home from get off work and just went up to the second floor when he saw his neighbor's 3-year-old child playing alone on the stair railing.
Doctor Song saw that half of the child's body had passed through the wide gap in the guardrail and was sticking out of the aisle. If he wasn't careful, he would fall from the second floor.
He immediately stepped forward, pulled the child back to the corridor, and gave him a few words of advice, but who would have thought that the child not only did not listen to the advice, but instead started scolding Dr. Song.
He ran back home and cried to his grandmother, saying that Dr. Song pushed him and he almost fell from the second floor.
After the man finished speaking, he did not forget to complain a few words.
“That child is a wild child. He curses at everyone he sees. If anyone dares to control him, his grandmother will go to that person’s house and make trouble.
Only Dr. Song, who has never suffered any loss, would care about him. In my opinion, if he is thrown to death, the hospital will have one less nuisance. He is a pure bad guy.
All day long he either pees downstairs from the second floor, throws stones at people, or swears. If his father wasn't the deputy director of a textile factory, he would have been beaten up eight hundred times."
After understanding the truth, Lu Zixuan took advantage of his small stature to push through the crowd, squeezed next to Dr. Song, and whispered a few words to her.
After hearing this, Dr. Song nodded helplessly and took out two Mao bills from his pocket.
"Aunt, I was wrong. I shouldn't have meddled with your child. Please be magnanimous. How about this? I'll give you 2 cents as an apology. Don't say anything more."
The old lady who had been scolding Dr. Song stopped talking when she heard the money. She grabbed the money and took the child away, cursing.
Seeing that there was nothing interesting to watch, everyone left.
Doctor Song said with some regret:
"Xuanxuan, thank you. You have an idea. She has been nagging me for half an hour without saying how to deal with it. She just keeps complaining about me meddling in her affairs and saying that I am bullying others by taking advantage of my power.
If I had known she wanted money, I would have given it to her a long time ago. This is so embarrassing and ruins the mood. Alas~"
Lu Zixuan looked around but didn't see any sign of Lao Zheng.
"It's okay. Isn't Uncle Zheng off work yet? Why haven't I seen him come out?"
Doctor Song looked up in the direction of the hospital gate and pointed.
"Look, after you solved the problem, he ran out. He probably heard the noise at the door and didn't dare come in. He was even more afraid of the old lady, so he kept complaining to her.
Let's go home and eat. At noon, Lao Zheng specially asked the logistics department to prepare chicken and asked what dish your aunt wanted to cook. "
After exchanging greetings, everyone went upstairs to Old Zheng's house. He Yuzhu picked up the ingredients and led Cheng Xiaoman to the renovated kitchen.
As soon as Lao Zheng sat down, he spoke with some dissatisfaction.
"Boy, although you handled it quickly just now, it is easy to encourage the spread of this bad atmosphere, which is not appropriate."
Lu Zixuan didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt.
“So whose fault do you think is it that the child behaved badly? It’s not his grandmother’s fault?
I want to strongly support her blackmail behavior, and give her 5 cents next time, and 1 yuan next time. Do you think she will stop after she gets a taste of the sweetness?
You are generous and don't bother with her, but not everyone has money for her to blackmail. Soon, there will be a slap in the face to teach her a lesson. This is the best way to punish her for the past and prevent the future."
Old Zheng couldn't help but straighten his body, frowned, thought for a while, and nodded repeatedly.
"That's good, kid. I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've come up with new tricks. You're no longer going head-on, but are going to use a roundabout way to hit him in the face. Comrade Song will have to pay to get his revenge."
Doctor Song said with some emotion:
"Okay, as long as these grandparents and grandchildren can learn a lesson, it's worth the money. I'm almost going crazy.
I thought I would be happier if I moved out of the courtyard house and got rid of those disgusting little calculations.
The result is good, he escaped from the wolf's den and fell into the tiger's den. Why can't this person live a peaceful life? Why does he have to take things from other people's bowls?
I finally realized that people should not be too kind. I felt so naive and pitiful for how naive I was in the past.
"I was so coaxed into losing my mind with just a few nice words, but in the end, I was completely taken advantage of by them. Sigh..."
When Lu Zixuan heard the child swearing again, a plan came to his mind.
"Aunt Song, if the grandparents come to you to kowtow and admit their mistakes, will you forgive them?"
