As soon as Jia Dongxu entered the house, he heard Jia Zhang cursing at home, "This dead family made delicious food at home, but didn't know to send it to the neighbors to taste. There are two dead families and one money-loser, why should they eat so well? They should send it to my Bang Geng to eat. My Bang Geng will be a good official in the future, and I can take care of them then."

"Mom, what's wrong? You're like this again as soon as you come back."

When Jia Zhang saw Jia Dongxu coming back, she asked him again, and said angrily, "No reason. Everyone's life is so difficult now. The neighbor made so many delicious dishes. He must be taking advantage of the public. What's wrong with me scolding him at home?"

"Mom, please stop talking. The last time you went to jail, you framed someone without evidence. Haven't you learned your lesson yet? And I heard from people in the courtyard that Jiang Feng goes fishing when he has nothing to do. Sometimes when he catches a lot of fish, he can exchange them for some meat tickets. There is basically a constant supply of meat in his family."

"This damn family, they went fishing but didn't even give some to the neighbors. My family is poor, but they didn't even help us. Look how skinny Banggeng has become."

Seeing Jia Zhangshi like this, Jia Dongxu was speechless. At this time, Qin Huairu came in and said, "Dongxu is back, let's eat. If there is anything, we can talk after dinner."

Jia Dongxu agreed. Even if he wanted to make a fuss, he should fill his stomach first. Otherwise, he might not have dinner when the matter was told. So he sat at the table, picked up a steamed bun, and started eating it with the fried cabbage on the table.

The food at night was much worse than at noon. There was no meat, and on the table there were only cabbage, radish, and a dish of pickled vegetables. Jia Zhang got off the bed cursing, sat down at the table, picked up a steamed bread and ate half of it in one gulp. While eating, she said, "The vegetables of the well field are so delicious, and the nine chi are so slanted."

The two of them ate steamed bread and looked at Jia Zhangshi without saying anything. Banggeng started to jump again: "I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat, I don't want to eat steamed bread, grandma, please ask the dead family next door to send me some meat."

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he put down his chopsticks and tried to grab Banggeng. Jia Zhang quickly reached out to stop him, swallowed what was in her mouth and said, "What are you doing, Dongxu? Banggeng is right. He should ask the neighboring family to send the meat to my Banggeng. Why do you always beat him?"

Bang Geng saw his grandmother protecting him and screamed even louder. Jia Dongxu couldn't help it and slapped the table, yelling at Bang Geng: "Eat if you want to, or get out of here if you don't want to."

Jia Zhang was also stunned. Banggeng was yelled at by his father and looked at Jia Dongxu in a daze. Qin Huairu saw it and quickly pulled Banggeng over: "Banggeng, stop making trouble. Didn't we just have meat at noon? How can we eat it every day?" Banggeng was pulled by Qin Huairu and burst into tears when he heard what she said.

Jia Zhang finally reacted and said that her son was reluctant to leave. She pointed at Qin Huairu and said, "What are you talking about? Are you saying that I am making trouble? You little bitch, since you married into our family, our family has not had a good life. Now that you have just eaten a little meat, you are here to make indirect accusations."

"Mom, I was talking about Bang Geng, not you. You are my mother-in-law, how could I say anything about you?"

Jia Dongxu interrupted at this time: "Mom, if you are not hungry, you can eat later."

"Eat, eat, why not eat, who said I'm not hungry."

Several people started eating in silence. Bang Geng didn't dare to say anything. He picked up a steamed bread and ate it slowly.

After everyone finished eating, Qin Huairu cleaned the table, took a basin and went out to wash the dishes. Jia Dongxu watched Qin Huairu go out, and said to Banggeng: "Banggeng, go out and play after eating."

Banggeng glanced at Jia Dongxu, responded and went out. Seeing that no one was at home, Jia Dongxu said to Jia Zhang: "Mom, last time at the police station, I told you about sending you back to the countryside. What do you think about it?"

"I won't go back. I said it at the time. I won't go back to the countryside. Now the letter of apology has been issued. I won't go back. Let's see what he can do to me."

Jia Dongxu suppressed his anger and said, "Mom, think it over. I promised them that they would write a letter of apology. If you don't go back, I, your son, will be too ashamed to continue living in this courtyard."

"Who dares? This house belongs to my Jia family. Who dares to drive us out? I won't go back anyway."

"Mom, if you say that, I have no choice but to return the agreement to Jiang Feng. If the police come to take you to jail, I won't care."

Jia Zhang was stunned. She only knew that detention was only possible with a letter of apology. If there was no letter of apology, one would be imprisoned. "I've already been released. Can I still be arrested?"

"I don't know either, but it's written in the letter of apology that you have to go back to the countryside. If this condition is not met, I don't know what will happen."

"Dongxu, go and beg him. Mom is too old to go back to the countryside. If I go back now, you want me to die in the countryside."

"It's not that I didn't ask for mercy. I did ask for mercy at that time. If I could ask for mercy, this clause wouldn't be written in the letter of apology. You cursed me in the room as soon as you came back. How can I ask for mercy?"

After hearing this, Jia Zhang was stunned. She thought for a while with her small brain, then rolled her eyes and said, "Old Jia." She put her hands on her thighs, pushed the table, and fell to the ground, howling, "You died miserably. Now your son doesn't care about me anymore. He's forcing me to die. Old Jia, please come back and take me away with you. If I die, I can't stay in this family anymore. Old Jia, please come back and take away those who are against our Jia family. I'm almost being forced to death."

When Jia Dongxu heard this, his temples began to throb. Qin Huairu was washing dishes outside. When she heard the shouting in the house, she felt that many people were secretly watching her. She hurriedly finished washing, picked up her things and went back to the house. When she entered the house, she saw Jia Zhang sitting on the ground. After putting away the dishes in the kitchen, she hurried out to help Jia Zhang. Unexpectedly, Jia Zhang pushed her over and said, "You are a vixen. You seduced my Dongxu and made him not want me anymore. He wants to drive me back to the countryside. You want Dongxu to force me to death, old Jia, come back soon and take this little vixen away."

Jia Dongxu saw Qin Huairu lying on the ground, stepped forward to help her up, and said to Jia Zhangshi: "Since you don't want to go back to your hometown, I will go and return the agreement to Jiang Feng. I don't know what will happen then. You made a scene as soon as you came back. If you hadn't reported others at that time, you wouldn't have been arrested. Now that you are out and still making a scene, you will go to jail again. This time you go in, you will go to jail."

After hearing this, Jia Zhang did not dare to cry anymore and said to Dongxu: "Dongxu, you are so cruel. I am your mother after all. Now I have to go back to the countryside privately. You are so cruel."

"It's not that I'm cruel, I just can't help it. You said you were making trouble in the courtyard, and Master was talking to you in the back, but you went straight to report him and wanted to send him to jail. Now look, you're caught but you still don't give up and want to make trouble. You really won't be satisfied until I send you to jail for half a year, right?"

When Jia Zhang heard what Jia Dongxu said, she became more excited: "Go find Yi Zhonghai and ask him to find a solution. He will definitely have one. If the extinct family doesn't agree, ask him to organize the people in the courtyard to drive him out."

"Are you crazy? Have you never kicked people out of the yard? They are living well. Now they are not giving face to anyone in the yard. Wasn't it just last time when they wanted to kick people out that no one came out to say anything?"

Jia Dongxu took a breath and said, "I have no choice. Even if I don't give them the agreement, if you stay in the hospital for a few days, they will know that you don't want to leave. It will be the same then."

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Jia Dongxu went to open the door and saw Yi Zhonghai standing outside: "Master." Yi Zhonghai nodded, walked in and said: "Old sister-in-law, now you understand the matter. If you didn't agree at that time, you would have been sentenced now. If you don't leave, even if they can't send you in, Dongxu and Banggeng will not be able to raise their heads in the courtyard in the future."

When Jia Zhang saw Yi Zhonghai coming in, she thought about the future life of her son and grandson, and made up her mind: "I don't care, I just won't leave. If he has the guts, send me to jail. I will go to jail rather than return to my hometown."

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu knew that there was no other way. Yi Zhonghai sighed and said to Jia Dongxu, "Dongxu, your mother is in this state, there is nothing we can do. You can only take the initiative to find Jiang Feng. Whatever happens, don't come to me again for your Jia family's affairs in the future."

After saying that, Yi Zhonghai walked out. Jia Dongxu grabbed Yi Zhonghai's sleeve and said, "Master, you can't just ignore me. My mother is my mother. I've already said that if she is arrested by the police again, she will be the one to take care of it. My family doesn't have the money to compensate her, and we don't have the face to ask for her forgiveness anymore."

When Jia Zhang heard that Yi Zhonghai would no longer care about the Jia family's affairs, she was worried. She was definitely unwilling to go to jail. Jia Zhang thought that she had already been sentenced to detention, and it was impossible to withdraw the verdict and sentence her again. She wanted to get away with it, but she was not sure. When she heard that Yi Zhonghai would no longer care about the Jia family's affairs, she was more concerned. She also knew that she still had to rely on him to take care of Jia Dongxu in the hospital and the factory. If he really didn't care, she would not have a good life if she stayed.

"Master Dongxu, you can't just ignore Dongxu. You promised Lao Jia at that time. Dongxu has been with you for so many years, you can't just ignore him."

"Then I can't do anything about it. Dongxu is already in this state, but you still insist on staying in the courtyard. How can Dongxu face people in the future? If Jiang Feng really reports you to the police station or the street office, how do you think people will look at your Jia family? Then even I will be embarrassed. You decide for yourself."
