1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

At this moment, Jia Dongxu felt dizzy and wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

The regret in his heart surged like a tide, and he cursed himself in his heart, wondering why he had been so blinded by greed yesterday and said those nonsense words "You can set the terms".

Now that the Li family actually demanded such a high amount of compensation, he felt ashamed and annoyed, his face turning red and white, like a lantern that changed color.

He secretly glanced at his master Yi Zhonghai's face, his eyes full of helplessness and pleading. He hoped that the master could come up with a solution as usual, but at this moment the master also had a look of anger and helplessness on his face.

Yi Zhonghai's heart was filled with rage at this moment.

He never expected that the Li family would be so greedy. One thousand dollars was simply enough to suck his blood dry!

In his heart, he cursed all the ancestors of the Li family, but on the surface he still maintained a sanctimonious attitude.

He looked at Li Weiguo's calm appearance, the anger in his heart grew stronger and stronger, but he had nowhere to vent.

"Hmph!" Yi Zhonghai stomped his feet hard, turned around and was about to walk back.

But before leaving, he still managed to put on a relatively calm expression and found a way out for himself: "The amount you mentioned is too large. Let's go back and discuss it."

After saying that, he pulled Jia Dongxu and hurriedly left the door of the Li family.

Along the way, Jia Dongxu was like a puppet who had lost his soul. He hung his head, walked with heavy steps, and muttered to himself: "Master, what should we do? Where can we get one thousand yuan?"

Yi Zhonghai strode forward angrily, grumbling as he walked: "The Li family has gone too far this time, it's simply lawless! Why didn't they just rob us of a thousand dollars? It's all your fault for talking nonsense yesterday. Now the Li family has us in their grasp."

Jia Dongxu felt so aggrieved that tears were about to fall: "Master, I know I was wrong. I was so anxious at the time that I said those words in a fit of anger. Now we really have to collect the one thousand yuan!"

Yi Zhonghai sighed, stopped, and glared at Jia Dongxu fiercely: "Let's go back first, I don't believe there is no other way!"

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu returned to the central courtyard dejectedly, Yi Zhonghai's heart still filled with rage.

As soon as he entered the house, he began to pace back and forth, muttering to himself, "What on earth is the Li family planning? Why do they want so much money all at once? A thousand dollars, they really dare to ask for it!

I guess Li Dajiang and Wang Guifang didn't come out because they were embarrassed, right? Humph, a thousand yuan, they really have the nerve to ask for it! "

In Li Wei's country, people were also discussing the matter of the thousand dollars.

Wang Guifang and Li Dajiang looked at Li Weiguo in disbelief. Wang Guifang spoke first, "Weiguo, do you really want a thousand yuan? This is not a small amount. Can the Jia family really afford it?"

Li Weiguo smiled obscurely and said confidently: "Mom, based on my understanding of Yi Zhonghai, he will definitely agree to it.

In order for Jia Dongxu and everyone in the Jia family to remember his kindness and sincerely provide for his retirement, Yi Zhonghai had to come up with something real.

It's just that he probably didn't intend to take so much.

But the old man must have quite a bit of savings, so asking him to take out this thousand dollars now is no big deal for him.

Just wait and see, they will agree.

The reason why I want so much money is, first, to give them room for bargaining, and second, to make Yi Zhonghai bleed and prevent the Jia family from ever causing trouble in the courtyard again.

If we let the Jia family off easily, not only will it be hard to explain to Director Wang, but it will also be hard to deal with the police station at the Public Security Bureau."

Li Dajiang listened, nodded in agreement, and said, "What Weiguo said makes sense. We must not be soft-hearted this time."

He thought about it all night last night, even if they let the Jia family go without putting forward any conditions.

Given Jia Zhang's personality, she won't be able to calm down even after they come out.

It would be better to offer such a high compensation as it is now. If Jia Dongxu doesn't pay the money, Jia Zhangshi and Banggeng will continue to stay in jail.

If Yi Zhonghai is willing to pay this money, the two families will be considered to have a personal feud in the future. It would be better not to have anything to do with such a family.

Back in the Central Courtyard, Yi Zhonghai was like an ant on a hot pan, feeling anxious and restless in the room.

He thought about it over and over again, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Two days have passed. Jia Zhangshi and Jia Banggeng have been in the police station for two days and two nights. If they continue to stay there, they may not be able to save the situation even if they have money. They can only find a way to get the money as soon as possible and get the people out first."

Finally, Yi Zhonghai thought about it, gritted his teeth, and made up his mind: "Give them the thousand yuan first! When Jia Banggeng and Jia Zhangshi come out, then we will find a way to get the money back."

Yi Zhonghai's gloomy face was full of calculations.

Then he immediately asked the lady to take the passbook and go to the bank with her.

One thousand yuan is indeed not a small amount of money, but compared with Banggeng's future, Yi Zhonghai feels that this amount of money is simply insignificant.

Although Li Weiguo didn't know that Yi Zhonghai had such a plan, he had already made his own plans.

He thought to himself: "Once I get the money, I will go with my second uncle to the street office to apply for employment. When the time comes to allocate housing, I will make sure to choose carefully."

It would be great if the whole family could live in the same yard, but if not, he would still like to bring his grandparents to the city.

Time passed slowly as all parties were calculating, and the atmosphere in the courtyard became extremely tense because of this compensation dispute.

Jia Dongxu looked at Yi Zhonghai from the side and asked cautiously, "Master, do you really want to take this thousand yuan?"

Yi Zhonghai glared at him and said unhappily, "What if you don't take it? Are you going to let your mother and Banggeng stay in there forever? Get them out first, there will be plenty of opportunities to get the money back later."

Jia Dongxu nodded submissively and dared not say anything more.

Yi Zhonghai muttered to himself, "This Li family is too cruel. I will just endure it this time. They will pay me back in the future."

Carrying the thousand yuan that seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, Yi Zhonghai came to Li's house with Jia Dongxu with a face as gloomy as a dark cloud.

When Li Dajiang saw the thick stack of banknotes in their hands, he was so shocked that his mouth opened wide and his eyes seemed to pop out of their sockets.

He turned his head secretly in disbelief and glanced at his son beside him, his eyes full of admiration and surprise.

I thought it was simply a pipe dream for my family to come up with a thousand dollars.

But this old fox Yi Zhonghai actually managed to raise the money. What his son said was indeed accurate and correct. It was no wonder that his son was so smart and shrewd.

Yi Zhonghai stood in the Li family's house, tightly clenching the thousand yuan in his hand. The knuckles of his hand turned white from the force, but he refused to hand it over easily.

He said anxiously, "Finish the letter of apology first, and then we can give you the money after we have verified that there is no problem!"

He looked as if the money would be lost forever once handed over.

The muscles on his face were twitching slightly due to extreme tension and reluctance, and the blue veins on his forehead were bulging.
