Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

No one in the courtyard agreed with Yi Zhonghai's words. Compared to an ordinary seventh-level fitter, the canteen director was someone they couldn't afford to offend. They might still need He Yuzhu in the future, so why should they follow Yi Zhonghai?

But most people in Siheyuan didn't dare to offend Yi Zhonghai, a senior fitter. Didn't you see what happened to Zhou Tie before? Zhou Tie's fate made many people in Siheyuan a little afraid to act rashly. If he hadn't been transferred away in the end, I believe Zhou Tie would have been controlled by Yi Zhonghai.

The neighbors in the courtyard pretended to be deaf and dumb, they really wanted to avoid offending anyone. Yi Zhonghai was so angry that his face turned red. Now Yi Zhonghai felt as if everyone in the world had a grudge against him. He couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, but he still suppressed it desperately. Knowing that offending everyone in the courtyard was a very unwise option, he let out a long sigh.

He glanced at Jia Zhang and said, "Director Wang has already divided the responsibilities. If your family doesn't pay the fine, and Director Wang blames you, don't blame me, your master, for being ruthless. Xiuying, go home and get 100 yuan. For Dongxu's sake, I won't say that I'm lending it to your Jia family. Just consider it as part of your fine."

"You, Jia Zhang, have to pay the remaining 275 yuan yourself. Don't treat me like a fool. The old Jia's pension, plus your son's salary over the years, is enough for you to pay the fine. You can choose not to pay a penny, but you can ask these people in the courtyard if they agree or not?"

When the people in the courtyard heard that Jia Zhang dared not pay? The money was all theirs. Their faces immediately darkened. Some of the bad-tempered ones said directly, "I have been lying in bed for several days because of the sick pork you Jia family made. You don't have to pay. But you Jia family members can forget about walking at night. Don't be so cautious."

Chen Er, who was standing next to the person who said this, said, "Hey, Blind Wang, you are using literary words. You are pretending to be a pig with a green onion stuck in its nose. You act like you are so educated, but you are just a fortune teller." Blind Wang was not afraid of Chen Er. He sneered and said, "What does the matter between me and the Jia family have to do with you? Do you think their daughter-in-law is beautiful and want to save her?"

Blind Wang chuckled and looked at Chen Er with a look of averted eyes. Chen Er's face was full of black lines, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just see you people bullying orphans and widows, and I feel sorry for it! Don't talk nonsense."

Everyone in the courtyard was shocked. Chen Er's explanation was just a cover-up. Chen Er looked at Xu Erni with lustful eyes. Although Xu Erni had given birth to a child, the moonlight shining on her skin made Chen Er feel that she was even more beautiful. She had a more feminine flavor than before she gave birth.

Jia Dongxu, who was standing next to him, was so angry that his face turned red. Wasn't this a naked challenge to his authority as a husband? Seeing so many people in the courtyard looking at his wife with lustful eyes made Jia Dongxu very angry. Xu Erni, who was standing next to him, was secretly happy in her heart, thinking that she was still quite attractive!

Jia Zhang stood up and slapped Xu Erni in the face. The black claws slapped Xu Erni in the face, and a red palm print appeared on her face. This made Chen Er very distressed. Xu Erni said with tears in her eyes, "Mom, why did you hit me?"

With her hands on her waist, Jia Zhang roared, "I will beat you to death, you ungrateful thing, you dare to ruin the reputation of our Jia family and flirt with other men, I must teach you a lesson today." Xu Erni cursed this evil mother-in-law to death in her heart, but what can she do now?

She had already given birth to a son for Jia Dongxu, and some of the thoughts in her heart had already disappeared. She didn't even dare to think about or mention the word divorce. If she really couldn't see her son, she would probably go crazy. Even if she was cruel enough to divorce her son, could she still go back to Qinjiazhuang?

Her reputation had long been tarnished in Qinjia Village, and she certainly had no place in Xujia Village. Her parents had long passed away, and her brother and sister-in-law would allow her, a married woman, to come back? She could only accept it. She shed tears unconsciously, and the tears of a beautiful woman were quite lethal to a man.

The hearts of the bachelors in the courtyard were all aroused, and some married men also looked reluctant. However, the tigress pinched the soft flesh on their waists, and the men in the courtyard quickly withdrew their sympathy. He Yuzhu, who was watching the fun, said, "We should report to the Women's Federation if you bully your own daughter-in-law like this!"

Yi Zhonghai yelled angrily, "Why report to the Women's Federation? Shut your mouth. This is the Jia family's affair, why are you, an outsider, butting in?" Yi Zhonghai was so angry that if he really called those crazy people from the Women's Federation over, not only the old woman Jia Zhang would be implicated, but also his beloved apprentice.

He Yuzhu was not happy when he heard this and stood up immediately. He said to the neighbors in the courtyard, "Everyone in the courtyard, listen to what I, He Yuzhu, have to say. The great man said that men and women are equal and women hold up half the sky. If our women are persecuted, we must take up the weapon of law to protect our rights, right?"

The newly married wives in the courtyard looked at He Yuzhu with great admiration. Although a women's federation had been established, they were confused about what this organization was for. The older wives were a little unhappy. Wasn't this instigating their daughters-in-law to fight with their mothers-in-law? Their faces were so ugly, but most people in the courtyard supported He Yuzhu.

Jia Zhang's old face was full of anger. In her mind, she had been a daughter-in-law for many years and finally became a mother-in-law. Why did she have to change her mind? In other words, why couldn't she touch her daughter-in-law just because she was an old woman? She was very unwilling in her heart, so she cursed with a dark face, "Bullshit, I know I have to beat you to death today."

"Oh, you are so powerful! It seems that I have to teach you a lesson today, Jia Zhang." Director Wang's words came from the front yard. Director Wang walked in from the front yard with a group of people with an expressionless face.
