Chapter 534: Can You Hold On
"Haha, these are all bad ideas."
In response to Xu Fugui's praise, Cai Quanwu waved his hand and evaluated himself with a smile.
Take pretending to be sick for example. It is a common trick in both TV dramas and novels.
Xu Fugui's wife knew about it from the fact that Cai Quanwu didn't mention it, which shows that this method is not new.
Xu Fugui just didn't think of it at the moment. Give some time, this old bastard will definitely think of it.
"No matter what the idea is, as long as it works." Xu Fugui did not quite agree with Cai Quanwu's idea and gave his own opinion.
In Xu Fugui's opinion, as long as it is useful, it is a good idea.
Chatting along the way, the group came to the bicycle parking area and rode towards the courtyard.
After returning to the courtyard, Xu Damao and Xu Fugui's wife got off their bicycles and walked straight into the courtyard without waiting for Cai Quanwu and Xu Fugui who were pushing their bicycles behind them.
"Hey, you guys are finally back, how's it going?"
The two uncles were smoking at the door of the third uncle's house. When they saw Xu Damao and Xu Fugui's wife coming in, the third uncle came up to them and asked with a smile.
"The doctor said that I had overworked myself when I was young, so I should not overwork myself now and should rest more. He even prescribed some medicine."
Xu Damao was also a smart guy, and he spoke half-truthfully in front of his mother.
After saying that, Xu Damao showed the medicine in his hand to the two uncles.
The reason why the second and third uncles haven't gone home to rest yet is that they think it's too coincidental that Xu Fugui's wife is sick.
Their plan had not yet begun, but the other person happened to fall ill. How could such a coincidence happen in the world?
So after the meeting, the second uncle and the third uncle waited here to confirm whether Xu Fugui's wife was really sick.
Now seeing the medicine in Xu Damao's hand, the two uncles gave up hope.
Medicine has been prescribed, so it seems that Xu Fugui's wife is really sick.
Doctors generally won't prescribe medicine if you're not sick.
Besides, who would take medicine if they are not sick? Many people know that medicine is three-quarters poison.
After confirming the truth of the matter, the third uncle and the second uncle exchanged glances and nodded slightly, feeling that there was no need to continue with this matter.
He is already a patient, and it is unreasonable to force him to take care of a paralyzed patient in bed.
If they force themselves to do this, and someone reports it to the street, they will definitely be in trouble, or at least get a scolding.
After reaching an agreement, the third uncle smiled and nodded, saying, "We have to listen to the doctor."
As soon as the third uncle finished speaking, Cai Quanwu and Xu Fugui came over pushing their bicycles.
"Old Liu, Old Yan, why are you still awake so late?" Cai Quanwu was pushing his bicycle in front of Xu Fugui. When he saw the second and third uncles, he asked with a smile.
In fact, Cai Quanwu understood why the second and third uncles did not go home to rest.
He and Xu Fugui heard clearly the conversation between the third uncle and Xu Damao just now from outside.
He asked this on purpose.
"Yes, Old Liu, Old Yan, why are you still not asleep? Are you waiting for us to come back?" Xu Fugui followed behind Cai Quanwu and said meaningfully.
The third uncle was still thinking about how to answer Cai Quanwu. When he heard what Xu Fugui said, he rolled his eyes and pretended to be stupid and said along with Xu Fugui:
"Yes, Damao's mother's condition looked so serious just now. Without you guys coming back, we couldn't figure out the situation and couldn't sleep well."
"Now that we have figured it out, we can rest assured."
"Lao Xu, Lao Yan is right. If you don't come back, we won't be able to figure out the situation and we won't feel at ease." The second uncle echoed what the third uncle said.
Knowing that the two gentlemen were saying one thing and thinking another, Xu Fugui thought to himself, everyone can act.
So, Xu Fugui expressed his gratitude with a smile on his face: "Old Liu, Old Yan, I'm sorry for making you worry."
"It's okay. As the uncles in charge of the courtyard, this is what we should do." After Xu Fugui expressed his gratitude, the second uncle rushed to the third uncle to express his opinion.
The third uncle was speechless when he saw the second uncle was so impatient to express his opinion. It was true that the second uncle always eats shit and never forgets to steal the limelight.
But from another perspective, the second uncle's character is easy to fool.
Thinking of this, the third uncle no longer cared about it and waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, go home and sleep, you have to go to work tomorrow."
After saying that, the third uncle walked home with his hands behind his back.
Seeing the third uncle leave, the second uncle looked at Xu Fugui who lived in the backyard with him and said, "Old Xu, shall we go together?"
"Okay." Xu Fugui nodded and pushed his bicycle into the yard.
As soon as Xu Fugui moved, everyone followed him and walked towards the central courtyard.
"Mom, you are back."
As soon as they arrived at the Intermediate Court, Xu Meiling heard the noise and ran out of Sha Zhu's house and shouted.
"Let's go home." Xu Fugui's wife shouted to Xu Meiling.
Afterwards, Xu Fugui and Cai Quanwu said hello and the family walked towards the backyard.
As for the second uncle, he had disappeared long ago.
Cai Quanwu had just parked his bicycle when Sha Zhu ran over and asked, "Uncle, why did you come back so late?"
While Cai Quanwu and Xu Fugui were plotting in private, Sha Zhu was bragging to Xiao Wu and he didn't listen carefully at first.
I did hear some of it later, so I asked this question.
Cai Quanwu knew what Sha Zhu meant, and said calmly, "Something unexpected happened."
"What accident?" Sha Zhu asked curiously.
"Nothing." Cai Quanwu promised not to tell it, so he naturally wouldn't tell Sha Zhu, the big loudspeaker.
Seeing that Cai Quanwu refused to say anything, Sha Zhu was smart enough not to ask any further questions.
He knew Cai Quanwu's character. Since he refused to say anything, it would be useless to ask him any more.
"By the way, Zhuzi, after we left, how did the meeting go? Who was chosen to take care of the deaf old lady?"
Seeing that Sha Zhu stopped asking questions, Cai Quanwu started asking him.
Neither the second uncle nor the third uncle mentioned how the meeting went or what the specific results were.
Cai Quanwu was curious about how the two old men continued the show after they left.
When Sha Zhu heard Cai Quanwu's question, he curled his lips and said:
"Choose a fart."
"After you left, everyone was talking about it. Who would have the energy to hold a meeting?"
"When the third and second uncles saw this, they tried to calm everyone down several times but failed."
"In the end, we had no choice but to announce the end of the conference."
"But before the announcement of the meeting, they said that if anyone wanted to take care of the deaf old lady, they could talk to them privately."
"When the time comes, they will discuss it and report the names to the street."
After Sha Zhu said this, Cai Quanwu understood what the second and third uncles were planning.
Privately speaking, they discussed it and the initiative was still in their hands.
They can report whomever they want.
No wonder I didn't go to sleep and stayed there waiting for them to come back.
If they feel that there is no problem with Xu Fugui's wife, it is estimated that the two of them will most likely act first and report Xu Fugui's wife later.
By the time the street office agrees, it will be a done deal, and even if the Xu family wants to object, they won’t be able to do so.
Because based on the conditions, Xu Fugui's wife is indeed the most suitable candidate.
If they disagree, they can stand on the moral high ground and criticize the Xu family.
Fortunately, they were one step ahead and didn't give the second and third uncles any chance.
"Okay, go back to sleep." After getting the news, Cai Quanwu sent Sha Zhu away and returned to the house.
The next day.
Cai Quanwu got up and prepared to go out to wash up. As soon as he went out, he smelled the scent of Chinese medicine coming from the backyard.
When he smelled the medicine, Cai Quanwu knew it must be the Xu family making the medicine.
It seems that the Xu family is very eager to know the treatment effect.
In his previous life, Cai Quanwu had drunk several doses of Chinese medicine. The taste, wow... it’s hard to describe in words.
Thinking of the taste of Chinese medicine entering his throat, Cai Quanwu couldn't help but feel sympathy for Xu Damao in his heart.
In Xu Damao's case, if he doesn't drink it for a year or two, there will probably be no effect.
I don’t know if Xu Damao can withstand it.
