Chapter 48: Performing a desperate act (page 1)
"Ah! Lao Yi! Oh no, the old lady...the old lady is dead!"
Early in the morning, just after dawn, a scream suddenly rang out in the courtyard.
Even though Xiang Yunduan was half asleep, he could hear the panic in the cry.
After yawning, rubbing his eyes, and stunned for a moment, Xiang Yunduan suddenly came to his senses.
What? Who died?
He seemed to have heard someone say dead people just now?
"Lao Yi, Lao Yi, go and have a look, the old lady..."
There was another scream, and this time, Xiang Yunduan heard it clearly. The voice belonged to an old lady. The old lady in her mouth was probably a deaf old lady!
This news surprised Xiang Yunduan. Is the deaf old lady really dead?
"No way? It can't really be because of the pot of meat yesterday!"
Xiang Yunduan thought about it, and most likely it had something to do with the pot of meat.
Yesterday, he originally gave the deaf old lady a small pound of meat, but later Yi Zhonghai added more, picking out almost half a pound of meat and adding it in. If the deaf old lady ate all the meat, it would be like hanging herself. , I think my life is too long!
Just when Xiang Yunduan was preparing to get up and thinking secretly in his mind, there was already a commotion in Yi Zhonghai's house in the middle courtyard.
Although Yi Zhonghai is responsible for taking care of the deaf old lady, in fact, the specific things are done by the aunt.
This morning, after the aunt got up, she went to the deaf old lady's house in the backyard as usual to empty the urinal for the deaf old lady.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she pushed the door open and entered, she was greeted by an unpleasant stench that almost made her vomit out all the acidic water in her stomach.
Holding back the nausea of vomiting, the aunt looked into the room and saw that the urinal that should have been placed in the corner was knocked over to the ground, and the deaf old lady herself fell into a puddle of filth.
The yellow and green ones looked like they were vomited.
There are also some undigested fatty meat slices, tofu, rotten vegetables, etc.
It's summer, the weather is already hot, and I don't know how long I've been vomiting, and the vomited things are already rotten and smelly.
"Old lady, what's wrong with you!"
The aunt endured the stench and hurriedly came to the deaf old lady, trying to help the deaf old lady up who was lying on the urinal.
But soon she panicked.
The deaf old lady's whole body was like a puddle of mud and she couldn't be lifted up at all. She tried several times, but not only failed to lift the deaf old lady up, she was also brought down.
At this time, the eldest mother was afraid.
The old deaf lady looked exactly like a dead person, so lifeless that she couldn't be moved at all.
She had heard that this person would become very heavy once he died.
When she thought of the dead person, the aunt became even more panicked. She stretched out her fingers tremblingly and poked under the deaf old lady's nose. It seemed that she really had no breath left.
At this time, the aunt was so frightened that she trembled all over, rolled and crawled out of the deaf old lady's house, and ran home quickly, shouting "He's dead" as he ran.
At this time, when everyone was getting ready to get up, many residents were suddenly awakened by the eldest mother yelling like this.
……
"What are you talking about? Why did the old lady die? Wasn't she fine last night?"
Yi Zhonghai was washing up when he saw his wife's face turning pale and running into the house in a panic, and he suddenly felt a bad premonition in his heart.
"It's dead... it stinks... it all stinks... it's a pile of mud!"
The aunt seemed to be frightened. She couldn't speak complete words and started gibbering.
When Yi Zhonghai saw this, he slapped Aunt Ma on the face, which woke her up from her daze.
"What's going on?" Yi Zhonghai asked in a deep voice.
Doesn't he believe that even if the deaf old lady dies, everything will stink tonight?
"Ouch, I can't explain clearly. Go and have a look!" the eldest mother said in confusion.
When Yi Zhonghai saw this situation, he quickly walked to the backyard without wasting any time.
However, when he arrived at the backyard, Liu Haizhong, who already lived in the backyard, had already arrived at the scene.
Not only Liu Haizhong, but also several families lived in the backyard, and they all rushed out after hearing the sound.
Because there was too much filth in the deaf old lady's room and the smell was really bad, everyone just looked into the room from a distance and no one wanted to get close.
"I heard someone said he was dead just now?"
"Really dead?"
"Look, they're all spread out on the ground!"
"When did people disappear? You live next door, didn't you hear anything last night?"
"Hey, I rarely had meat last night. After I came back, I drank some wine and fell asleep in a daze. I don't know!"
"I heard some noise, but I didn't pay much attention!"
……
Listening to everyone talking, Yi Zhonghai finally arrived at the door of the deaf old lady, but was suddenly hit by the unpleasant stench.
"Old Liu, what's going on?" Yi Zhonghai asked, looking at Liu Haizhong next to him.
"You have always taken care of the deaf old lady, you ask me?" Liu Haizhong said angrily.
"you……"
Yi Zhonghai was about to say something when suddenly many people came to the Moon Gate.
By now, it was obvious that everyone had heard about it.
"Why is there no one? Weren't you fine last night?"
Yan Bugui took the lead and wanted to go to the house to have a look, but he was also smoked back.
"He deserves it! This old man doesn't want to share any meat with our family. He deserves to die!"
At this time, Mrs. Jia Zhang suddenly jumped out and said: "Lao Yi, this deaf old lady said yesterday that she left this house to you. Now that she is dead, the house should naturally belong to you.
I think you should pack up quickly and move in with your wife. As for your original house, let our Dongxu live in it for you. "
In fact, Jia Zhang didn't dare to talk to Yi Zhonghai so boldly before.
However, he understood clearly yesterday that Xiang Yunduan said that Yi Zhonghai planned to let Jia Dongxu support him in his old age.
The more Jia Zhang thought about this matter, the more it made sense.
Yi Zhonghai had no children, so he took Dongxu into his family as his apprentice. As the saying goes, once you are a teacher, you will always be a father. Don't you just want Dongxu to provide for you in your old age?
It is precisely after understanding this that Jia Zhang speaks unscrupulously now.
Whether or not Yi Zhonghai will be provided with a pension is another matter, but there is no problem in occupying Yi Zhonghai's house first in the name of providing pension.
"Yi Zhonghai, you seek wealth and murder!"
Xiang Yunduan was just thinking about how to speak, but unexpectedly Jia Zhang handed over the words.
"Xiang Yunduan, don't be slanderous. Why did I seek wealth and kill people?" Yi Zhonghai was confused. He didn't do anything!
Is Xiang Yunduan crazy if he wants to label him?
But Xiang Yunduan's next words made Yi Zhonghai feel miserable: "You still say that you are not seeking wealth or killing?
I have long seen it, you are a hypocrite, you name it as taking care of the deaf old lady, but in fact you are just taking care of the deaf old lady's house.
