Chapter 197 The villain succeeds
Seeing Second Uncle coming, Qin Huairu seemed to have found a savior and cried even louder, "Second Uncle, you have to make the decision for me! Our Banggeng is a good child. He just wants to study hard and have a bright future, but our family's conditions are really..."
"Okay, okay, Huairu, stop crying. Everyone in the hospital knows your difficulties! As your uncle, I can't bear to see women cry." Liu Haizhong said as he took out a crumpled handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu took the handkerchief, but did not wipe her tears. Instead, she took the opportunity to hold Liu Haizhong's hand, "Second Uncle, you are such a good person. I knew you would help me..."
Liu Haizhong felt his bones soften when Qin Huairu held his hand like this. He coughed twice, pulled his hand back unnoticeably, and said, "Huairu, don't worry, Second Master will do his best to help you. However, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, in the long run..."
As he said that, Liu Haizhong turned his head and looked at the uncle, with a bit of provocation in his eyes, "Uncle, what do you say?"
The old man didn't want to pay attention to Qin Huairu's unreasonable request, but when he saw Liu Haizhong's smug face, he became angry.
"Old Liu, what you said makes it sound like I'm to blame if I don't help her?" The old man snorted coldly, "I've helped everyone in the courtyard who is in trouble, haven't I? But you can't be taken advantage of! You know what kind of person Banggeng is. Sending him to the city is just a waste of money, isn't it?"
"Hey, uncle, what you said is wrong. The child is still young and needs education. How can you say he is wasting money?" Liu Haizhong retorted.
"Education? I think it means spoiling him! The child is so young, but he is a habitual thief and a liar. If we send such a child to the city, what will happen?" The third aunt interrupted.
"Third aunt, how can you say that to a child? Banggeng is still young and doesn't understand anything, so it's inevitable that he'll make some mistakes. How can you..." Qin Huairu became unhappy when she heard Third aunt say that to Banggeng.
"What's wrong with me? Did I say something wrong? Ask the people in the courtyard, which child is like your Banggeng? He causes trouble every other day and even steals things, and you still have the nerve to say that?" The third aunt was not to be outdone and pointed at Qin Huairu's nose and scolded her.
"Alright, alright, stop talking!" Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, the uncle quickly stopped them and said, "Huai Ru, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't do anything about this matter."
"Uncle, please help me, I beg you!" Qin Huairu said, and was about to kneel down to the uncle again.
"What are you doing? Get up quickly!" The old man hurriedly supported Qin Huairu.
"Uncle, if you don't agree to me, I won't get up!" Qin Huairu acted like a rogue.
The yard suddenly became a mess, with people talking about something. Some were trying to persuade Qin Huairu, some were blaming the old man, and some were just watching the fun and fanning the flames.
At this moment, a voice came from outside the crowd, "What are you all arguing about? Are you going to let people sleep?"
When everyone looked back, they saw a burly man with a face full of flesh walking in. It was the "devil" in the courtyard - Xu Damao.
As soon as Xu Damao appeared, the yard suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at him, waiting for him to speak. Xu Damao walked slowly into the middle of the crowd, glanced at Qin Huairu who was sitting on the ground, then looked at the old man who looked embarrassed, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Oh, isn't this Qin Huairu, the one who cries the most in our hospital? What's the matter? What's the scene she's singing today?" Xu Damao said sarcastically, his tone full of disdain.
Qin Huairu hated it most when people said she "could cry", but Xu Damao always kept using this point. She glared at Xu Damao fiercely, said nothing, just turned her head to the side and continued to sob softly.
"Xu Damao, please say less!" The old man couldn't stand it anymore and shouted.
"What's the matter? Did I say something wrong? Qin Huairu cries every other day. If you don't know her, you might think someone bullied her! Uncle, don't be fooled by her pitiful appearance!" Xu Damao said as he took out a cigarette box from his pocket, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep puff.
"You..." The old man was choked by Xu Damao's words and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing the old man being humiliated, Xu Damao became even more proud. He blew out a puff of smoke and said slowly, "Qin Huairu, you are already an adult, why are you still crying like a child? If your Banggeng is really a good student, you don't need to tell me who in the courtyard will help him. But what kind of person is he? Don't you know it?"
"Xu Damao, you are talking nonsense!" Qin Huairu finally couldn't bear it anymore. She stood up suddenly, pointed at Xu Damao's nose and cursed, "What right do you have to say such a big joke? Did my son provoke you?"
"Oh, are you still anxious? Am I talking nonsense? Then tell me, who in the yard doesn't know about your son Banggeng's stealing and cheating? With his character, if we send him to the city, wouldn't he be a disaster to people?" Xu Damao fought back without showing any weakness.
"You...you are slandering me!" Qin Huairu was so angry that she was shaking all over, but she couldn't find any words to refute.
"I'm slandering me? Do you want me to call all the people whose things were stolen by your idiot to come over for a confrontation?" Xu Damao said, pretending to walk towards the crowd.
"Don't... don't scream..." Qin Huairu panicked and quickly grabbed Xu Damao's arm, begging, "Xu Damao, I beg you, please stop talking, okay?"
Xu Damao looked down at the hand that was holding his arm. Qin Huairu's hand was white and slender. Although it was a little rough due to years of work, it still looked very attractive in the night. His Adam's apple moved, and a bold idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
"You can make me shut up if you want me to..." Xu Damao leaned close to Qin Huairu's ear and said in a low voice, "Come to my house tonight..."
Qin Huairu felt her cheeks burning like fire, terribly hot. The hot breath from Xu Damao sprayed on her ears, making her feel uncomfortable. Without thinking, she pushed Xu Damao away and shouted angrily: "You are dreaming! Even if I starve to death, I will never go to your house!"
Xu Damao staggered and almost fell down because of Qin Huairu's sudden action. He steadied himself and looked at Qin Huairu with lustful eyes: "Oh, you are quite fierce! What's the matter? Why are you pretending to be a chaste and heroic woman? Don't you look at yourself? You are a widow with three children. You are supported by the hospital every day. I am willing to give you alms because I am giving you face. Don't be so ungrateful!"
