Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

Chapter 87: The Courtyard Worships the Jia Family

Let’s put aside Li Muhua, who gloats and sees through everything.

The most proud and happiest person in the compound at this moment is Jia Zhang!

When Li Muhua was led by Xu Yan to the front yard, he looked back and saw her holding the stick, boasting with a rosy face among a group of neighborhood aunties, saying how the old immortal was very smart during the day.

As proud as a peacock spreading its tail to show off.

But every time she said just a few words, she would inadvertently talk about her son Bang Geng, and talk about how the old immortal praised Bang Geng, as if she was afraid that others didn't know about this happy event.

What about becoming an immortal, becoming a high-ranking official, flying into the sky and hiding the earth, and deciding life and death at the drop of a hat? His mouth is not even as good as talking nonsense, it can even talk about an aircraft carrier.

Anyway, no matter how scary the words are, they make her Bang Geng sound like a living god. It is a blessing for the whole courtyard to have her Bang Geng around.

It's just a matter of saying that there will be a good guy in the compound in the future, waiting to lead them and their neighbors to prosperity.

If anyone wanted to improve the relationship between the two families and reached out to touch Banggeng's watermelon head, her hand would be slapped back before it even reached out.

He glared at him with his triangular eyes and retorted: "What are you doing? Do you think you can touch the head of a god? The old god has said that my Banggeng is a god who has descended to earth and will go to Zhong Nanhai to become a high-ranking official in the future. Do you dare to touch his head?

You are so brave, you are not afraid of being struck by lightning! "

Jia Zhang touched Bang Geng's head again, afraid that she had really offended the neighbors, so she continued in a weaker voice, "I am doing this for your own good, so that you don't blame us when you get punished."

After seeing the Taoist master Xuyi's ability to identify traitors with one hand, most of the neighbors in the courtyard firmly believed that he was an old immortal and really knew magic.

Then what he said about Banggeng being a little god must be true.

That's why they were gathered at the gate of Jia's house at this moment, listening attentively to Jia Zhang's bragging. In addition to watching the fun, they also hoped to take the opportunity to improve the relationship between Jia's family and their own family.

When Banggeng really becomes a high-ranking official in the future, he cannot forget these neighbors, right?

Not only that, some more thoughtful neighbors, thinking that the Jia family had never been well-off in terms of food, actually started bringing packages from their own homes, large and small, which were filled with white flour and other grains that they usually didn't want to eat.

When Jia Zhang first saw this scene, she felt happy. She had already understood that they were taking the opportunity to please her, but she still pretended to be puzzled and said:

"Liu Sanniang, what are you doing?"

Liu Sanniang didn't explain much and just put the package into Jia Zhang's hands.

"Sister-in-law, everyone in our yard knows that your family is having a hard time now, but there is hope in the future! Your family's Banggeng will surely be successful in the future. Here is a little gift from my family. It's not much, just a dozen pounds of white flour and millet. You can give it to Banggeng to eat. When he is successful in the future, our yard will also benefit from him, right?

By then everyone will know that a god and a high-ranking official have emerged from our courtyard!"

As she spoke, Liu Sanniang pushed Jia Zhang into the Jia family's house.

"Liu Sanniang, you—ah! Too polite. We are all neighbors, we should help each other. Don't worry, when my son Bang Geng becomes a high official and an immortal, I will never let him forget your kindness no matter what I say..."

As she spoke, Jia Zhang was half-heartedly pushed into the house by Liu Sanniang. When the other neighbors outside the house saw this, some thought flashed across their eyes at first, and then they were all filled with enthusiasm.

They all ran towards their homes. They had to add incense and oil to pray to the Buddha in the temple. Now there was a real immortal in their yard, so they had to show their appreciation no matter what!

It will be so impressive to talk about this later. The immortal Jia Geng had eaten their rice noodles before he became an immortal. The national leader Jia Geng had also eaten them when he was a child...

In an instant, the gate of the Jia family was crowded with people. People kept walking in with packages and walking out empty-handed with smiles on their faces. Even the newly appointed aunt was no exception and walked into the Jia family carrying a net bag full of sweet potatoes.

When the others saw that Yan Laokou was actually sending something out for the first time, they immediately ran faster and rushed towards the Jia family, fearing that they would fall behind others.

Surprises came in waves from outside the house. Jia Zhang was surrounded by people in the house. People kept handing her cloth bags and net bags filled with various foods, and even stuffed receipts into her pockets.

But she was in such a hurry now that she had no time to take it out and look at it. She was just so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and her whole old face was as bright as a chrysanthemum.

Not only was she smiling, she was also constantly thanking everyone and promising that she would never forget their kindness. She almost directly promised to let Banggeng help them become immortals and become high officials.

Bang Geng, who was watching nearby, had his face flushed with excitement. He hadn't expected that becoming an immortal would bring him such benefits. The neighbors were now rushing to send gifts to his house.

If I go to school tomorrow and tell them that I am a Banggen Immortal, wouldn't they be scared?

Thinking of this, Bang Geng couldn't help but clench his fists and began to think about how to deal with those four bastards.

As for Qin Huairu on the side, it was the same. Her smile was as beautiful as a peach blossom. She cooperated with Jia Zhang in constantly thanking everyone, and her heart was naturally filled with joy.

In the afternoon, she was still worrying about what she would do without Sha Zhu's support in the future!

Unexpectedly, in just such a short time, all the neighbors rushed to send food to her house. At this rate, her next worry would be how to eat all the food!

These are all the kindness from the neighbors, she can’t just waste it!

The entire Jia family was immersed in ecstasy. The Li family's house in the front yard seemed a little gloomy at this time. Li Muhua sat at the table, watching Xu Yan put flour and millet into the cloth bag with a righteous look.

Looking at the cloth bag that was gradually getting bulging, his little face was filled with heartache. These were all good things. It would be a waste to just give them away to others to eat!

Is a dog-like thing worthy of eating his food?

For a moment, Li Muhua wanted to tell the whole thing, but after thinking about the consequences, he did not open his mouth, but silently put the blame on the Taoist Xu Yi.

I plan to find some time to thank him and beat up the rich landlord!

Li Aihua, who was sitting opposite Li Muhua, also looked unhappy, but as a son, he couldn't refute Xu Yan, so he just muttered angrily:

"Mom, I think you forgot what I said this afternoon. Bang Geng is not fit to be an official. Even if he does become an official, you have fed a parasite to the people. You might even have to suffer the consequences along with Bang Geng!"

When Xu Yan heard Li Aihua's dissatisfaction, she looked up and saw that her four children all looked unhappy. She smiled and explained, "Mom believes you. All the neighbors in the compound have given it to us!

It's just that our family doesn't send it off, so why do we want to be special in the courtyard!"

Hearing Xu Yan say this, Li Aihua stood up and said, "But——"

Before Li Aihua finished speaking, Xu Yan patted the cloth bag that was tied up and said, "Okay, Mom knows about this matter. She doesn't expect Banggeng to really become an official. She just doesn't want our family to be special in the courtyard. No matter if other families will send gifts in the future, our family will send it this time."

"Don't worry." Xu Yan looked at the four children and said lovingly, "Mom will go buy food tomorrow. You won't be short of food."

Watching Xu Yan walk out of the house with the cloth bag after she finished speaking, Li Aihua had no choice but to sit back on the stool angrily.
