Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 210: Jia Mu's Detoxification
In the courtyard, at Yan Bugui's home, the whole family was sitting in the main room, except for Shi Xiaoya, who did not participate in the family discussion and was watching the children in the inner room.

After Yi Dengli poured tea for several people, Yan Jiecheng spoke first and said, "Since this is a family meeting because of me, I'll speak first."

After saying that, he looked at Yan Bugui, who was drinking tea and waved his hand, signaling Yan Jiecheng to speak. At this time, Yu Li sat next to Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng said, "It was like this. The day before yesterday at noon, Xu Damao came to my workplace and asked me out for a meal. You all know me, I would rather eat a free meal than not eat it, so I followed him. During the meal, I was quite puzzled. I had never eaten with Xu Damao before, but he took the initiative to invite me this time, so there must be something going on. I asked him why he wanted to see me, and he told me the purpose of his visit."

Yan Jiecheng stopped and took a sip of tea. Yan Bugui said impatiently, "Hurry up and tell me. There are so many things to do."

Yan Jiecheng put down his teacup and continued, "He said he knew the owner of an electronics factory in Hong Kong Island that made small electrical appliances. He wanted to go to Shenzhen to buy a batch of electronic watches, radios and other small appliances, and then ship them here to sell. But he didn't have enough money, so he thought of making money together with his neighbors. That is, everyone would raise funds together, he would go once, ship the goods back, and finally divide the profits according to the amount of investment. Of course, he would take half, and the rest would be divided up."

Yan Jiekuang looked at him after he finished speaking, meaning do you want to get involved? Yan Bugui also looked at Yan Jiekuang, meaning is this reliable? Yang Ruiping and Yu Li also looked at Yan Jiekuang, they had the same idea, that is, whether this was a scam.

Yan Jiekuang thought for a while and asked Yan Jiecheng, "Do you know that Xu Damao will go alone? If so, are you comfortable with spending so much money to let Xu Damao go to the south alone? If something unexpected happens, won't you lose everything?"

Yan Jiecheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Yeah, why didn't I think of it? Wait, I'll go ask." After that, he stood up and was about to leave, but was grabbed by Yan Jiekuang.

Yan Jiekuang said: "I haven't finished talking yet. First of all, at this time, this business cannot be done. Do you know what speculation is? Do you know what smuggling is?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui stood up and said, "You mean, he bought the goods from Hong Kong and that's smuggling. Isn't that illegal?"

Yang Ruiping and Yu Li were also shocked. Yan Jiekuang continued, "In fact, if he said he was going to Shenzhen to buy a small amount of goods and then sell them in Beijing, no one would really take it seriously. He said he wanted to raise funds, so the amount must be huge. With such a large amount, if something goes wrong, not only will the money be lost, but everyone involved will also be implicated. So my advice is not to get involved."

Yan Jiecheng broke out in a cold sweat. Yan Bugui nodded firmly, feeling very fortunate that he had found the third brother. This was a wise man.

Yu Li was thinking about something, but Yan Jiekuang didn't notice. Yan Jiekuang said, "Now is not the time to do this kind of business. Let's wait a little longer."

Then he stopped talking, drank tea, and waited for Yan Bugui to speak. Yan Bugui said, "This matter ends here. Don't get involved. If other companies want to get involved, we don't need to care, and we shouldn't say anything to offend people."

Yan Jiecheng immediately said that he knew. Seeing that the matter was resolved, Yan Jiekuang wanted to go see Yongchang and Yongxin. He took two steps and stopped, then turned around and asked Yan Jiecheng, "Brother, do you know how much money he asked you to pay? Did he also say how much the electronic form only cost?"

Yan Jiecheng said: "He didn't mention the specific amount, just that the more the better. He said the electronic watches were fifteen each, and he would ship at least twenty-one to sell."

Yan Jiekuang chuckled and said, "Last time I went to Hong Kong Island, I brought you all good watches. The kind of electronic watches he mentioned cost no more than ten yuan in Shenzhen, maybe even less."

Yan Jiecheng was stunned on the spot. Yan Jiekuang pulled his mother to the inner room. Yan Bugui said angrily: "I knew Xu Damao was evil-minded. The incident at Old Liu's house was proof of that. Be careful next time."

Yang Ruiping was relieved of his worry and naturally felt better. He told Yan Jiekuang what had happened in the courtyard during that period.

The first thing was the Jia family's matter. Jia Zhang was released the next day, but she was also educated. The most important thing was to tell Jia Zhang the harm of taking painkillers frequently. The Jia family thought it was fine. The next day, Qin Huairu was invited to the street. A few days later, the street came to hold a special meeting to explain the handling opinions of this matter. The final result was that Jia Zhang was fine, Qin Huairu was also fine, just educated, but the doctor who prescribed the medicine for them had his medical license revoked for prescribing medicine in violation of regulations. Don't you think this doctor is unlucky.

Qin Huairu is now full of guilt towards the doctor, and also resentful of Jia Zhang. You said that you asked me to prescribe the medicine, and you took the medicine, but at the critical moment, you sold the person out. So Qin Huairu has not spoken to Jia Zhang until now.

Jia Zhang herself felt that she was a bit of a mean person, but her legs were shaking as she entered the police station, and she just dumped out everything without anyone asking her.

The second incident was also related to Jia Zhang. Jia Zhang's dependence on drugs was beyond the understanding of the neighbors in the courtyard. After that incident, Jia Zhang really didn't dare to take it. But once she stopped taking the medicine, when it was time to take the medicine, Jia Zhang felt uncomfortable all over and had a bad temper. If no one provoked her, she would moan very loudly, and sometimes even shout a few words. The neighbors, especially those in the middle courtyard, were very annoyed when they heard it. They endured it for one day, and then for two days. For a week, the neighbors complained.

Several families in the Intermediate Court joined together to go to Yi Zhonghai. After all, he was Jia Dongxu's master. Yi Zhonghai himself was annoyed. After listening to the neighbors' complaints, he quickly said, "Okay, I'll find Jia Dongxu and think of a solution."

Yi Zhonghai had just stepped into the Jia family when Jia Zhangshi was feeling uncomfortable. Before Yi Zhonghai could say anything, Jia Zhangshi started to curse Yi Zhonghai, saying all kinds of ugly things. Yi Zhonghai was very angry. Jia Dongxu came over and said, "I'm sorry, Master. My mother is addicted again. You know, when she is addicted, she will not stop talking and will curse anyone she sees."

Yi Zhonghai also knew that Jia Dongxu was telling the truth. He sighed, turned around and went home. Jia Dongxu hurriedly followed him.

When they arrived at Yi Zhonghai's house, Jia Dongxu took out a cigarette and handed it to his master. Yi Zhonghai picked up the cigarette and lit it, then said, "This isn't a solution. How about we buy him some?"

"No, we have managed to hold on until now. Now that she has seen the medicine, we have to go back. I will go to the hospital tomorrow to ask the doctor if there is any solution." Jia Dongxu replied quickly.

"Okay, the neighbors have come to me and I don't have any good solutions. You should hurry up and don't let the neighbors go to the street office in the end. Who knows what the result will be." Yi Zhonghai advised.

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he realized it was true. If the street office knew about this, who knows what the consequences would be. After all, she was his mother.

The next day, Jia Dongxu went to the hospital, and the doctor asked him, "What does your mother like the most?"

Jia Dongxu thought for a long time and replied, "Counting money."

When the doctor heard this, he frowned and said unhappily, "Is your family rich? I mean, does your mother have any hobbies?"

Jia Dongxu thought about it carefully and said, "Don't mind it, doctor. My mother has been through a hard life, so she is a bit obsessed with money. Apart from counting money, she really doesn't have any hobbies. She usually does two things a day, one is counting money, and the other is taking painkillers. Of course, now she also knows the harm, so she doesn't take it, but she screams in pain every day."

The doctor's expression softened, and after thinking carefully, he said, "My suggestion is alternative treatment. Find something or a hobby that can distract her. Of course, you can also ask a Chinese doctor."

Jia Dongxu thought for a long time but couldn't think of anything that could replace the painkillers. Jia Dongxu went straight to find an old Chinese doctor. After listening to him, the old Chinese doctor gave Jia Dongxu a folk remedy, boiling licorice in water, to see if it could relieve the symptoms. Jia Dongxu bought the licorice and went home without saying a word.

It turns out that this folk remedy really worked. Jia Zhang really calmed down in the next few days.
