Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

"Don't worry, my wife is tough, she won't die!"

Cao Xu and Lou Xiao'e exchanged bewildered glances. This person really was...

Just as the two were about to express their feelings, the cyclist who had hit them was apprehended and brought back.

When Sha Zhu saw that the person had been brought back, he rushed up and grabbed the person's collar.

"Well done, kid. You hit someone and you still dare to run away."

"Why aren't you running now? Go ahead and run!"

"Not only did it hit someone, it also startled my grandma, who almost fell to the ground."

"If something goes wrong, will you take full responsibility?"

After venting his anger, He Yuzhu released the man's collar.

He Yuzhu's state just now startled the person who was holding him, so they naturally loosened their grip a bit.

But in that instant, the person suddenly broke free and rushed forward.

· ·······Requesting flowers···· ······

"what……"

The man rushed forward too fast and bumped into an elderly woman who was watching the commotion. Caught off guard, the woman immediately staggered backward.

The direction it tilted was exactly where the deaf old lady was. Without Sha Zhu's support, how could the deaf old lady possibly withstand the weight of an old woman with just a cane?

So the deaf old lady naturally slumped down along with the middle-aged woman, and her head hit the wall.

"grandmother!"

"An old lady!"

Sha Zhu panicked and rushed towards where the deaf old lady had fallen.

A gunshot rang out, and the fleeing man fell to the ground, shot in the leg. The guards at the hospital entrance rushed over.

Soon, the doctors from the hospital rushed out and carried the deaf old lady and the woman who had been hit into the hospital.

An hour later, the operating room door for the elderly deaf woman was opened, and the doctor in charge of the rescue came out.

"Who is the family member?"

He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai, who was in a wheelchair, said in unison.

"I'm."

The attending physician removed his mask and nodded to the two of them.

"I'm sorry, we tried our best!"

At 12:14 PM on the second day of the first lunar month in 1966, the deaf old lady was pronounced dead after all efforts to save her failed.

Looking at everything that was happening before his eyes, Cao Xu couldn't help but sigh. Although fate was playing tricks on him, he was ultimately doomed.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu's eyes immediately turned red, and he knelt down at the door of the emergency room.

........ ........ ...

"Grandma, my grandma."

"Your grandson isn't even married yet, how could you leave like this?"

"Your grandson hasn't properly taken care of you yet, my grandma."

"Your grandson is unfilial!"

Yi Zhonghai, sitting in a wheelchair to the side, sighed with his head down.

"It's all fate!"

"A person's fate is predetermined. If you escape the first day of the month but don't survive the fifteenth, it's all fate..."

An older woman and Qin Huairu, who had come to deliver food to Jia Zhangshi, both wiped away tears.

Yi Zhonghai sighed as he looked at the scene before him, and waved to He Yuzhu, who was crying with his head down beside him.

"Zhu Zi, don't cry, the old lady has already passed away."

"Pack up and take the old lady home."

An hour later, the deaf old lady was sent back to the courtyard house, and the mourning hall that had just been dismantled that morning was set up again.

The neighbors gathered at the old lady's door, sighing and lamenting.

The three women, Auntie 1, Auntie 2, and Auntie 3, dressed the deaf old lady in her burial clothes once again, and the white cloth at the door was lifted up again.

Qin Huairu also returned from the hospital. When she arrived at the Central Hospital, she saw Xiao Dang about to run to the backyard, and she quickly called out to her.

"Xiao Dang, come back!"

When Xiao Dang heard her mother calling her again, she stopped and walked back.

"Mom, you're back. How's Grandma?"

Qin Huairu said.

"Your grandma is in the hospital; she'll have to stay for a few more days."

What are you going to do in the backyard?

Xiao Dang said innocently.

“My brother said his wife has died, and we are going to have a feast.”

"I just wanted to go to the backyard to see if she was really dead this time."

"What if he comes back to life tomorrow?!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu immediately covered Xiao Dang's mouth with her hand, and looked around to make sure no one was paying attention.

She quickly covered Xiao Dang's mouth and went back to her own home. Once inside, she scolded him.

"What nonsense are you talking about, child?"

"If people heard this, what would they think of you?"

"Remember this, you can't say these things in public anymore, understand?"

Xiao Dang lowered her head and pouted.

"I understand, I won't do it again next time."

"But I just want to know if I'll be able to get a seat at the banquet this time."

Qin Huairu said with a helpless expression.

"The children don't need to go to see it; they'll be able to eat at the feast this time."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Dang immediately raised his head and jumped up on the spot, his eyes shining.

"Great! We can finally have the feast!"

"Brother, Mom said we can have the feast now, aren't you happy?"

Banggeng, who was playing with Huaihua on the bed, didn't even look up.

"I was happy a long time ago, so I don't feel anything now."

“I already told you that the wife is really dead this time, and we can have a feast, but you didn’t believe me.”

"Well, do you believe me now?"

The locust blossoms nearby chimed in, joining in the chatter.

"Eat at the banquet, eat at the banquet..."

The mourning hall was rearranged, and He Yuzhu knelt in the hall to continue keeping vigil for the deaf old lady.

Outside, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui called He Daqing out.

"Old Liu, Old Yan, what do you want from me?"

Liu Haizhong gestured towards He Yuzhu in the mourning hall with his lips.

“Old He, you’ve seen it too. Sha Zhu is now taking care of the deaf old lady, so there needs to be someone to cook in this yard.”

He Daqing knew that last time the old lady passed away, Sha Zhu could still manage to hold a banquet after two days of mediation, but this time the old lady died right in front of him.

This shock was far greater than yesterday's, and Sha Zhu must have felt somewhat guilty. Besides, Yi Zhonghai was there to keep vigil yesterday, so the mourning hall wouldn't have been empty.

Now that Yi Zhonghai is hospitalized and can't come back, Sha Zhu can't leave the mourning hall, at least not during the day.

Therefore, he was naturally not allowed to be present at the funeral banquet on the third day.

“I know, I’ll cook this meal.”

Yan Bugui said.

"Brother He, you're so generous. It's been over ten years since we've had your cooking. Now we can finally enjoy it to our hearts' content."
