Dressed as a little fool: marry and have children

At Xu Damao's home, Xu Damao was sitting at the table, telling his father what happened during the day. While the two were chatting and laughing, there was a knock on the door.

Father Xu signaled Mother Xu to open the door. Mother Xu walked over, opened the door, and saw Jia Dongxu standing at the door with a hint of displeasure on his face.

"Dongxu, is there anything wrong?" asked Xu's mother, with a hint of doubt in her tone.

"Aunt Xu, Second Uncle asked me to notify everyone to hold a meeting in the open space in the central courtyard." Jia Dongxu replied briefly, then turned around and prepared to notify others.

Mother Xu looked at Jia Dongxu's departing back, feeling uneasy. She returned to the house and said to Father Xu, "My son really guessed it right. Yi Zhonghai notified everyone to hold a meeting. It seems that he was targeting our son. You can't let our son suffer."

After hearing this, Father Xu's face flashed with displeasure. He replied confidently, "Don't worry, I will. This courtyard is not his Yi Zhonghai's one-man show."

As time went by, the residents of the courtyard received notices of the general meeting. They had their own thoughts, but they all came to the open space in the middle courtyard.

When He Yuzhu followed He Daqing to the central courtyard on time, he found that Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were both holding a large teacup and drinking water, looking very impressive.

He Yuzhu thought of the phrase "unfriendly", so he turned around and looked at his father with a hint of mischief in his eyes. He asked, "Dad, can I bring you a big teapot for drinking water when I get back?"

He Daqing laughed when he heard what He Yuzhu said. He knew his son was making fun of him, so he laughed and scolded, "Little bastard!"

Yi Zhonghai and others arrived one after another and sat in the open space in the middle courtyard. Yi Zhonghai stood up, glanced at everyone, and said, "Today's meeting is mainly to seriously deal with Xu Damao's disrespect for his elders."

He paused, looked around, and said in a firm tone: "This is related to the unity and reputation of our courtyard, and even more so to our eligibility to apply for the Outstanding Courtyard this month. Therefore, we must punish him."

Xu Damao was furious when he heard Yi Zhonghai's accusation. He felt that Yi Zhonghai was being unreasonable, so he directly retorted: "Second uncle, you said I was disrespectful to my elders, please show me the evidence. Tell me what I did."

Yi Zhonghai was a little displeased when he saw Xu Damao dare to challenge his authority. He glared at Xu Damao, his face became serious, and his tone became cold: "Jia Zhang told me today that you called her a 'beggar' and locked her out. Is this true?"

"Yes, but..." Xu Damao was about to explain, but Yi Zhonghai interrupted him and continued, "Jia Zhang is your elder. You treat her like this, which is disrespectful to your elders. You have no way to refute this."

Xu Damao's face flushed when he heard this. He wanted to refute, but found that Yi Zhonghai's words made it impossible for him to refute. He was very unconvinced in his heart, but he knew that now was not the time to lose his temper.

People around him began to whisper and discuss. Some agreed with Yi Zhonghai's approach and believed that Xu Damao really needed to be punished; others felt that this was a bit excessive and stood up for Xu Damao. The whole scene became a bit chaotic.

Facing the comments and accusations from everyone, Xu Damao felt very wronged. He felt that he was misunderstood, but he didn't know how to defend himself. He began to regret not keeping silent.

Father Xu was a little anxious when he saw that everyone was misled by Yi Zhonghai's words. He knew that if it was not clarified in time, the misunderstanding would become more and more serious.

So, he took a deep breath and said firmly: "Yi Zhonghai, you said that Jia Zhang is my son's elder, so where do you put me and her mother?"

Father Xu's question made Yi Zhonghai speechless for a moment, and the people around him began to re-examine the situation. Father Xu took the opportunity to continue, "If we go to someone's house and ask for half of the chicken and get chased away, it would be 'disrespectful to the elderly', so from now on our whole family will go to your house for dinner. If you want to spread the virtue of 'respecting the elderly and loving the young', then you should set an example for us first."

Father Xu's words elicited a murmur and approval. He successfully shifted the topic to Yi Zhonghai, questioning his fairness in handling the issue.

At this time, Jia Zhang saw that the situation was not good, so she started to act like a rogue. She sat on the ground and cried loudly: "Old Jia, why did you leave? Come up and take Xu Damao away! Old Jia..."

Her cries echoed in the open space, but this time, no one sympathized with her. Instead, everyone thought she was being unreasonable and deliberately provoking trouble.

He Daqing observed the atmosphere at the scene and realized that things had reached a stalemate. He stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "Okay, let's leave it at that for today. Let's all go back."

However, Jia Zhang did not want to give up and wanted to continue to stop them. Seeing this, He Daqing looked at Jia Zhang seriously and said, "If you continue to make trouble, I will exercise my authority as an uncle. If you still don't listen, then we will go directly to Director Wang to resolve it."

When Jia Zhang heard what He Daqing said, she knew he was serious. Although she was unwilling, she also knew that it was meaningless to continue making trouble. So she chose to remain silent and stopped trying to stop him.

Seeing that the situation had been settled, everyone also decided to leave. The courtyard returned to peace, and the meeting ended in a grand manner.
