Siheyuan: Why are you all here to see me?

The next day, Sha Zhu took a day off and went to pick up his wife early. Sha Zhu led his wife to distribute wedding candies from house to house. Neighbors congratulated him one after another. But when it came to Yi Zhonghai, the situation changed. Yi Zhonghai was surprised at first, and then he did the same as Li Gang said.

Yi Zhonghai: "Zhu Zi, how can you get married... you..."

When Sha Zhu heard this, he immediately got angry and said, "You old man, how can I get married? I am a young man, so I can't get married. What do you mean by that?"

Yi Zhonghai quickly changed his expression and said, "Silly Zhu, you misunderstood. What I meant was, why didn't you ask me about your marriage?"

Shazhu's neck stiffened. "Uncle, did I hear you right? Why should I ask you about my marriage? I'm the one getting married, why should I ask you? I really don't understand, what do you mean today?"

Yi Zhonghai knew that he had upset Sha Zhu, but Sha Zhu's marriage was a big deal, as it was related to his retirement. Although Jia Dongxu was not bad, Yi Zhonghai had long seen Jia Zhang's greedy look. The Jia family was a bottomless pit, so he set his sights on Sha Zhu.

Yi Zhonghai: "What Uncle Shazhu meant is, why don't you ask me before you get married? I can check for you. Don't find a woman of questionable character and get cheated by someone, or you will regret it."

Yi Zhonghai said whatever he wanted to say, even though his wife was standing next to him. Yi Zhonghai was confused today. As soon as he said this, before Sha Zhu could refute, Ding Qiuxia was upset. This old man was saying that she was a woman of questionable character. Ding Qiuxia was the only girl in her family, and her three brothers spoiled her. How could she bear this kind of grievance? She spat at Yi Zhonghai and pointed at him.

"You old bastard, you dare to say that I am a woman of questionable character, just wait for me to ask my brother to beat you to death" and then turned around and walked away. Sha Zhu was really stupid, he wanted to refute a few words, but now that his wife was gone, he couldn't just ignore her, so he quickly chased after her, and turned back to curse, "Yi Zhonghai, just wait for me, if my wife is gone, I will burn your house down"

When Sha Zhu went out to look, he saw how Ding Qiuxia walked so fast. How come she disappeared in the blink of an eye?

The neighbors also saw something strange today. It's a happy event that Sha Zhu is getting married, and you, Yi Zhonghai, should be congratulating him. But this doesn't look like congratulations, but it looks like Sha Zhu shouldn't get married. He even said in front of his wife that she is a woman of questionable character. This is not right for Yi Zhonghai, and this is not Yi Zhonghai's level.

Yi Zhonghai hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet. He looked at the neighbors in the yard who were all gathered around his house and said, "Go away, go away. When you're looking for a wife in the future, you should keep your eyes open. You must not marry someone who scolds the elderly as soon as she opens her mouth." Yi Zhonghai even turned the tables and started to blame Ding Qiuxia.

Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong didn't say anything. Yi Zhonghai felt very embarrassed and went back to his room. More than half an hour later, a group of people came in from outside, both men and women. The leader was a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit with two pens in his pocket.

When he entered the middle courtyard, he asked Sha Zhu, "You useless guy, where does this old bastard belong to?" Sha Zhu hung his head and pointed to the east wing.

The middle-aged man turned around and said, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, go find this old bastard and destroy his house for me."

The three sturdy men behind responded and rushed in. As soon as they reached the door, Yi Zhonghai heard the commotion outside and pushed the door open, and the two sides came face to face.

One of the young strong men asked Yi Zhonghai, "Are you Yi Zhonghai?" Yi Zhonghai didn't know what was going on and was still bargaining. He replied, "I am Yi Zhonghai, an old man in the yard." As soon as he said this, "Okay, bang bang bang, ouch, ouch, ah, ah, stop hitting, who are you? If you hit me again, I will call the police." The three of them beat Yi Zhonghai on the head and he held his head and lay on the ground, not daring to let go. An old lady heard the noise and came out to see that Yi Zhonghai was being beaten. She hurried forward to separate the fight. Following them, several women from the Ding family grabbed the old lady's hair and started beating her.

Yan Fugui, Liu Haizhong and the neighbors in the yard were all dumbfounded. This group of people came in and started beating people. They were all very ferocious. No one dared to stop them, not even Sha Zhu. Just now, when he arrived at his father-in-law's house, before he could explain, several brothers-in-law almost beat him up. If Ding Qiuxia hadn't spoken well for Sha Zhu, Sha Zhu would have been beaten up long ago. They were all carrying sacks in the grain depot, and they were all strong and fat. Besides, these were brothers-in-law. If they really beat him, Sha Zhu wouldn't dare to fight back. Yi Zhonghai was beaten, and he knew in his heart that they were the girl's family members. He shouted loudly, "Go find the old lady quickly." Someone in the yard really went to call the old lady. The old lady was slow, and when the old lady arrived at the middle yard, the men had finished beating her. Yi Zhonghai and his wife were lying on the ground. Yi Zhonghai looked like they were beaten badly. The aunt was not much better off either. A lot of her hair had fallen out, and there were several blood marks on her face.

The old lady knocked the ground with her walking stick. "Where did you come from? How dare you come to our yard to beat people up? Do you still have the law? You, the neighbors, are just going to watch outsiders bully the people in our yard, huh?"

Li Gang watched from the sidelines as the old lady accused everyone of a crime as soon as she appeared. No one in the courtyard dared to say a word.

Li Gang can't let the old lady take control of the home court

Li Gang "Madam, it's not that we don't want to help. First, this is someone else's family affair, it's not easy for us to interfere. Second, Yi Zhonghai deserves it. Sha Zhu finally got married, and he sent Yi Zhonghai wedding candy with good intentions. It would be fine if he didn't congratulate him, but he also asked why Sha Zhu got married without his consent. Why should someone get your consent to marry a wife? You, Yi Zhonghai, are at best an ordinary neighbor, not Sha Zhu's father. He treats the courtyard as his own home. He wants to be the father of all the young people in the courtyard. From now on, the young people in the courtyard will have to work hard to save their lives." Young people have to get Yi Zhonghai's consent before they can get married. And he said in front of Shazhu's wife that the girl was a nobody. Yi Zhonghai, you don't even know the girl, but you ruined her reputation right away. How can she live in the future? This is an insult to her innocence. If it were you, what would you think if your daughter was described as a nobody for no reason? So the girl's family came to stand up for their daughter. What's wrong with that? Not to mention a beating, she deserves to be beaten to death. Don't you think so?"

These words really touched the hearts of the neighbors. Some families also had daughters. If their daughters were slandered and their reputations were ruined for no reason, they would also beat the person and stand up for him. The neighbors all accused Yi Zhonghai of wrongdoings.

When the old lady heard what was going on, she knew what Yi Zhonghai was up to. He just wanted to make Sha Zhu his second choice for retirement. But since they had already obtained the marriage certificate, how could Yi Zhonghai break them up? He was usually a smart man, so why did he do such a stupid thing today? But the old lady was still counting on the aunt to take care of her, so she couldn't just ignore it.

The old lady knocked her cane and said, "Li family boy, what Zhong Hai did was a little wrong, but you can't beat people like this. Why don't you two uncles ask someone to send Zhong Hai and his wife to the hospital?"

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui then hurriedly asked people to send Yi Zhonghai and his wife to the hospital. It looked like the matter was over. The old lady’s meaning was very clear. It was a beating, and you guys were venting your anger, so just let it go. The Ding family was not confused either, and they also understood what the old lady meant. Father Ding stood in the middle and said, “My daughter is a virgin. If anyone ruins her reputation, I will tear down his house. You idiot, why don’t you take us to your house? You’re so tired from beating her, and you didn’t even come to get her some water.” Okay, he’s still tired from beating her,

Sha Zhu said, "Hey, hey, hey, mom, dad, brother-in-law, come in quickly, come in quickly, my wife is leaving, let's go home." He took Ding Qiuxia's hand and went home. Ding Qiuxia's pretty face was red and shy, which made Sha Zhu react immediately. He liked Ding Qiuxia's soft and weak appearance, which made Sha Zhu's big man desire to protect her burst. Sha Zhu also called Li Gang,

When everyone saw that there was no excitement, they all dispersed.

Jia Dongxu from the Jia Family: "Mom, do you think my master will blame me for not helping?"

Jia Zhang said relentlessly, "Help? What help? Don't you see that those people are all big and strong? If you go up to help, you will be beaten. Old Yi deserves it. He says whatever he wants and acts like a big shot. Bah,"

Silly Zhu's father Ding said, "Zhuzi, this is the neighbor Xiao Si from the Li family who is very kind to you! Zhuzi, what the Li family kid just said is reasonable and knows right from wrong, much better than the other people in your yard. In the future, pay less attention to the neighbors in the yard, get along well with the Li family, and don't get in touch with those who just watch the fun and don't help, they are all a bunch of ungrateful people."

Li Gang: Damn, this Mr. Ding is really good. I can tell at a glance that they are all ungrateful people. Awesome. I admire him.

Li Gang "Uncle Ding, you are flattering me. I am a neighbor of Zhuzi and we have similar interests. We are not very reasonable, but we know that everything is just a matter of courtesy. We don't look for trouble, but we can't let others bully us either."

Father Ding: "Listen, Silly Zhu, you should study hard in the future"

Silly Zhu nodded stupidly

Li Gang: "How about this, Brother Zhuzi, since we are all here today and it is your big day, let's all go to my courtyard. My courtyard is quiet and undisturbed. We can smell whatever delicious food you cook here. Let's prepare a table in my courtyard and treat it as a wedding banquet."

Of course Sha Zhu agreed, because he knew that Xiao Si's family had good things.

Father Ding: “This is not good.”

Sha Zhu: "Dad, this is the middle courtyard. We can smell everything we do. If someone comes, we can chase them away in the name of congratulations. Besides, Xiao Si and I are close friends, so let's go to Xiao Si's place."

Father Ding: "Well, I'll trouble the Li family boy."

A group of people went to the courtyard, and Sha Zhu rummaged through the boxes and took out some ingredients and seasonings, as well as two bottles of wine.
