Su Chanjuan returned home empty-handed. She hung her bag on the wall and sat on the bed, leaning back.
Grandma heard the commotion and came out of her room. She knocked on Su Chanjuanâs door, ââJuan âer, howâs the thing you went to do today?â
âIt didnât work.â She shouted angrily.
âDidnât you say that youâre very powerful? So this is a lie to my son! You have the means to make my son listen to you!â
âStop complaining.â Su Chanjuan felt that this matter might not be successful. She had to go and inform Li Baojun. â Whereâs Baojun? I have something to tell him!â
âHe went to Yin Dazhaoâs house to play mahjong. Go find him!â Old Mrs. Han said angrily, then turned around and went back to her room.
As he walked, he mumbled,âl thought it was done! In the end, itâs also a boastful thing that doesnât pay taxes!â
Coming down from the apartment building, Su Chanjuan passed through the courtyard and headed to the row of bungalows in front.
She knocked on the door and heard some movement in the courtyard, so she went straight in.
There was a mahjong table in the courtyard. Li Baojun was sitting on the east side and playing mahjong with a few men. They were all shirtless and had cigarettes in their mouths. They were in high spirits.
âBaojun! Come out for a moment. I have something to tell you.â she shouted.
Li Baojun lost the card and was annoyed. When he heard his wife shout, he was too lazy to answer. His eyes stared straight at the card, and his mind was thinking about how to play the next card.
âBrother Jun, sister-in-law is calling you.â Yin Dazhao had a cigarette in his mouth, and the smoke was so thick that he couldnât open his eyes. He squinted his eyes, leaving only a small gap to look at people through. âWhat are you doing?â Li Baojun slapped a card and turned his head
Impatiently. â HOW IS Itâ IS It doneââ
âNo.â Su Chanjuan sat on the steps at the door and said to Li Baojun, â It didnât go well. Donât fight anymore. Weâll talk when we get back.â
âLetâs talk here. Weâre busy!â Li Baojun didnât want to leave the mahjong table. â Itâs not something confidential. Why do we have to run home to talk about it? â
âSu Hanyan wonât help! I went to look for her boyfriend, but he didnât help! Sometimes, I even wonder if sheâs my sister. Sheâs like an enemy! I think this matter is in danger. I canât order it around anymore! Think of another way!â Su Chanjuan said.
When Li Baojun heard that things were not going to work out, he lost money and was so upset that he simply pushed the cards and stopped playing.âDid you give your sister anything when you went?â
âNo! What gift? Sheâs my sister, why would I need to give her something?
Besides, she didnât lack money!â
âYou donât know shit.â Li Baojun jumped up. â Forget it, Iâll make a trip myself. â
âBrother Jun, if I remember correctly, your sister-in-law doesnât talk much.
She has a good temper!â Yin Dazhao interrupted. Why? She wonât help you?â
âGood temper? That was in the past! Now that his temper was so bad, no one in the family dared to provoke him! I heard that she found a doctor boyfriend whoâs quite rich. She doesnât care about anyone anymore.â Li Baojun sighed.
âBrother Jun, do you want me to help you?â Yin Dazhao asked.
âYouâll help?â
âYes.â
âHow are you going to help?â
âDonât ask about that.â Yin Dazhao removed the cigarette butt from the corner of his mouth and flicked the ashes with his index finger.. â If I can help you get this done, how about you give me some money?
