Siheyuan, my new life

After a long while, Jia Zhang gnashed her teeth and whispered, "Dongxu, Qin Huairu, that slutty vixen is not a faithful wife. She is hooking up with Yi Zhonghai, a dead family, and is shitting on the neck of our old Jia family. Are you still a man? Can you swallow this kind of anger? Are you worthy of your dead father? Are you worthy of me who has worked hard to raise you for so many years? You are not ashamed, but I am! Do you know what those damn gossipers outside say? I, your mother, can't even raise my head. Our old Jia family is also a wealthy family. We must not let that pair of dogs and bitches go. I will drive Qin Huairu and her two bastards back to the countryside. I will make the Yi Zhonghai family never peaceful!"

Jia Dongxu took a puff of his cigarette and sneered, "There are some things that I, as a son, am embarrassed to say. Now that things have come to this, I can only tell the truth. You always call on Old Jia all the time. Don't you think about whether you are worthy of my father? I know everything you did, and I know it's not easy for you, a widow, to raise me. But don't you think about it? What's the point of making a big fuss? Yi Zhonghai is now in disgrace. Will he still care about you blocking the door and cursing?"

Seeing Jia Zhang's face flushed, Jia Dongxu sighed heavily: "If there were other ways, do you think I would be willing to swallow this breath?"

After her son exposed her true identity, Jia Zhang did not dare to continue making trouble. She said unwillingly: "Why don't you kick Qin Huairun and her three daughters out of the house? You can divorce that slutty vixen. With your conditions, it won't be difficult to marry a virgin girl."

Jia Dongxu sighed with a wry smile, and said in a low voice: "If there is nothing wrong with my own body, I will of course divorce and marry another wife, but I went for a physical examination yesterday, and the doctor diagnosed that there is a problem with my kidney function and I have lost my fertility. That is to say, even if I marry again, I can't have children."

Jia Zhang immediately jumped up and looked at her son in surprise: "Dongxu, how is this possible? You are in your prime, how could you lose your fertility? Are you lying to me?"

Jia Dongxu took out the checklist and threw it on the table, saying disheartenedly: "The old Chinese doctor at Tongrentang has confirmed that if I had not lost my fertility, do you think I would let that couple go? Rather than being scolded as a childless family after the divorce, I thought about it and decided to continue living like this. Banggeng and Xiaodang are still the children of the Jia family, so it doesn't mean that the Jia family's incense is cut off. You must never beat or scold the two children anymore. They are still young now. As long as we treat them well, we will rely on them to take care of us in our old age and see us to the end of our lives."

Jia Dongxu didn't dare tell Jia Zhang the real reason why he lost his fertility. If she knew that it was Yi Zhonghai who drugged her, Jia Zhang would probably have a big fight with Yi Zhonghai regardless of the consequences.

Jia Zhang slumped on the stool, staring blankly at the diagnosis on the dining table. Suddenly she said, "Dongxu, could it be that the doctor made a mistake? Let's go to a big hospital for a thorough checkup. I don't believe that you would lose your fertility at such a young age."

Jia Dongxu shook his head helplessly: "Mom, I understand your feelings, but what kind of place is Tong Ren Tang? The old Chinese doctors there are experts who treat big leaders. When have you ever heard of a story about an old Chinese doctor at Tong Ren Tang misdiagnosing a patient? I feel worse than you do now, so stop making a fuss. Just do as I say from now on. When Yi Zhonghai gives you 20 yuan a month for living expenses, I will increase your pension to 5 yuan a month."

When she heard about the money, Jia Zhang immediately perked up. She said unwillingly, "Dongxu, the family that waited for death gave us 20 yuan a month. We should each get 10 yuan. Those two bastards can be given food as long as they don't starve to death. Oh, and you have to give me half of the 1,000 yuan."

Jia Dongxu glared at the money-hungry old woman and scolded her in a low voice: "Shut up. If I hear you calling the child a bastard again, you will go back to the countryside and live on your own. You must never beat or scold the child again. And don't say that you are a money-loser all the time. Do you know that you are also a woman?"

Seeing that Jia Zhang was a little unwilling, Jia Dongxu continued to scold: "Don't you think about it yourself? How much money did my father leave when he just died? You eat and drink a lot all day long and feed yourself into a fat ball, but all that money has been spent. If that money could be left, would our Jia family have to rely on Yi Zhonghai's help? If you hadn't been making a fuss and playing rogue in the courtyard all day long, would our Jia family have to rely on Yi Zhonghai to show favoritism? You have an unclean relationship with Yi Zhonghai, and you still have the nerve to scold others? Do you think I didn't embarrass myself with you outside?"

Jia Zhang muttered, "I bought all those delicious things, and you ate a lot of them."

Jia Dongxu slammed the table and cursed in a low voice: "How dare you say that? Think about it yourself. How many times have you hidden outside and secretly bought roast duck to eat? Do you think I'm blind and can't see it? You can come back with diarrhea by yourself, but you don't even think of bringing some back for me. How dare you say that? Every time the family cooks meat, you eat most of it yourself? I think it's not easy for you to support this family alone, so I've been pretending to be deaf and dumb, but don't go too far, otherwise I will really turn my face against you."

Jia Zhang opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. What her son said was all true, and she really had no way to refute it. After a long while, she said, "What happened in the past is in the past, and neither of us should mention it again. However, half of the money given by the deceased family must be given to me. I have to save it for my retirement."

Jia Dongxu sneered disdainfully: "Don't use the pretext of saving money for retirement. Do you think I don't know that you always secretly go out to eat at restaurants? Secretly go out to buy braised meat? Let me tell you, I have the final say in this family from now on. I will not give you a penny less, but not a penny more. Do you think Yi Zhonghai is a fool? If you dare to deduct the child's living expenses, he will immediately let Qin Huairu divorce me. With his income, it is easy for him to rent a house outside for Qin Huairu and the child. Twenty yuan for living expenses is enough for the three of them. By then, you will get nothing."

Jia Zhang opened her mouth but could not say anything. Based on her understanding of Yi Zhonghai, that exiled family member was really capable of doing such a thing. Anyway, his reputation was already bad now, so he probably wouldn't have anything to fear in the future.
