After Qin Huairu arrived, Yan Bugui stopped knocking on the door and quietly stepped aside to watch what happened.

When he saw He Yuzhu's actions, a hint of hesitation flashed across his face.

Yan Bugui originally planned to stop him, but then he changed his mind and thought that this incident happened before the establishment of the subdistrict office. It would be better to make a big deal out of it, and he might even benefit from it.

Qin Huairu's calls gradually weakened and her voice became hoarse.

Jia Zhang in the room was determined not to come out. No matter how people outside called out, she planned to pretend not to hear anything. She was determined to be a fool and try to get away with it.

As for coming out to make trouble with He Yuzhu, that was not a wise move. He Daqing could give her a big beating.

Jia Zhang saw He Yuzhu practicing martial arts every day. If he hit her, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

At this time, Peng Hongwu led the people from the street office to the gate of the courtyard.

"Director, everyone is in the backyard." Peng Hongwu took the lead and walked into the yard.

Wang Xia didn't look very happy. She didn't expect that this would happen right after she met He Yuzhu and with the wedding candy still in her pocket.

She nodded slightly, motioning the two older sisters behind her to go in with her.

As soon as Peng Hongwu stepped into the backyard, he shouted, "Someone from the street office is coming! Everyone, make way!"

After shouting, he ran to the crowd nearby, ready to watch the fun.

When the people in the backyard heard the shouting, they all looked at Wang Xia and the other two who came in, and began to lower their voices and make way.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui quickly came over with a smile on his face: "Director Wang, why did you come here in person?"

Wang Xia snorted lightly, did not reply, and walked directly to the back room.

Yan Bugui walked beside her and began to explain what happened, cleverly shirking his responsibility.

Wang Xia came to stand in front of He Yuzhu and asked seriously, "Zhuzi, you don't know about this?"

He Yuzhu nodded and said in a low voice: "Director Wang, I have never received a telegram, nor have I received a penny of the so-called rent."

Wang Xia looked around, raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and asked loudly: "Who else was present at the time of this incident?"

"Director Wang, in addition to the three uncles in charge of the courtyard, there is also my old Peng and Xu Fugui in the backyard." Tong Juan replied from the side.

Wang Xia turned to look at Tong Juan, nodded, and solemnly announced: "Although this incident happened during the military control committee period, it has been discovered now, so it will be handled by the street office."

When the onlookers heard this, no one objected and they all nodded in agreement.

Wang Xia winked at the staff who came with her and said to everyone, "Bring Zhang Xiaohua out to me! And bring out the so-called telegram as well."

Under the guidance of Yan Bugui, the two older sisters came to the door.

"Mrs. Jia, the leaders from the subdistrict office are here, open the door quickly! If you don't open the door, the damage caused by the door breaking will be yours!"

Yan Bugui had lived with Jia Zhang in the courtyard for the past few years and knew very well that she loved money like her life, so he deliberately made a fuss about paying her compensation.

Jia Zhang had been lying by the window listening to the noise outside. When she heard that the people from the street office were coming, she was so scared that her legs were shaking.

Her mind was a mess and she was a little confused. She wondered if she would be arrested and put in jail, eating sore-stomach steamed bread.

After hearing what Yan Bugui said, Jia Zhang came up with an idea and decided to rush out and have a big fight with him, even going so far as to throw a tantrum to try to evade responsibility.

Jia Zhang took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, walked to the door, opened it and rushed out.

When she saw the two older women at the door, her eyes narrowed and her face became ferocious. She rushed towards Yan Bugui at an accelerated speed, attempting to clash with him.

Yan Bugui was frightened by her action and stepped back repeatedly.

The two elder sisters saw through these little tricks at a glance and stepped forward tacitly to subdue Jia Zhang.

Seeing that her plan had failed, Jia Zhang was held tightly by the arms and lifted off the ground, carried towards the yard.

She immediately began to twist her body and struggle, kicking her legs and howling.

"Shazhu, you are such a conscienceless person! You have eaten at my house, and you have so many houses, so what's wrong with me staying there for a while!"

Feeling the curious and puzzled looks coming from all around, He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows and made up his mind that he must send her in this time.

Qin Huairu followed closely behind Jia Zhang, holding Banggeng in her arms. When she heard her yelling, her attempts to comfort the child stopped for a moment. Her face turned pale and blue, but she soon regained her composure.

In her heart, she cursed Jia Zhangshi fiercely, saying that she was a fool and was still offending people at this time.

When Wang Xia heard Jia Zhang's shouting, she was sure that the matter was true. She frowned and looked at the two people who were driving Jia Zhang.

The two elder sisters understood what she meant and exerted a little force with their hands, and Jia Zhang's scolding turned into screams.

"Zhang Xiaohua, how long are you going to make trouble?" Wang Xia's eyes were like knives, piercing Jia Zhang's eyes, "I think you don't even need to go back to the countryside."

Jia Zhang's eyes now became clear, with fear flashing in them. She didn't want to go back to the countryside.

What's more, she knew very well what she had done, and there would be no good for her if she went back.

Seeing that Jia Zhang had calmed down, the two elder sisters loosened their hands slightly and let her stand on the ground.

Wang Xia began to question him harshly: "Zhang Xiaohua, in front of everyone, tell me honestly whether this telegram is fake or not?"

Jia Zhang didn't dare to refute at this time, and she hesitated and didn't dare to answer.

Qin Huairu stood aside and was about to speak to defend Jia Zhang, but was glared back by Wang Xia, so she had to stand back obediently.

Seeing this, Wang Xia ordered the two elder sisters: "Take her back first."

Seeing that Jia Zhang was struggling again, she said slowly, "Do you want to attract everyone in the alley to see the excitement in your house?"

Only then did Jia Zhang allow herself to be taken away by the two men obediently.

"Dear neighbors, I believe everyone has seen this matter clearly. I will go back and investigate this matter thoroughly, and then I will inform you all." Wang Xia explained the situation loudly to everyone.

After that, she turned her gaze to He Yuzhu, "Zhuzi, do you have any requests?"

When Qin Huairu heard this, she immediately showed a pitiful expression and looked at He Yuzhu: "Brother Zhuzi, please be magnanimous. My mother-in-law is illiterate and does not know etiquette..."

"Okay, sister-in-law, please stop talking. I can't bear such a compliment." He Yuzhu waved his hands repeatedly, decisively stopping her from continuing.

He turned to the neighbors around him and said loudly: "Dear neighbors, some of you may not know me, that's okay.

I just want to clarify one thing today. Just now, Aunt Jia said that I had dinner at her house.

When her grandson held his first month celebration, I had to contribute one dollar to get a seat.

You can go and ask Teacher Yan if it is true. If this is not enough to get a seat at the table, then I have nothing to say."

He Yuzhu bowed his hands and finally expressed his attitude to Wang Xia: "Director Wang, my only request for this matter is to handle it according to the regulations."

Wang Xia nodded slightly and looked around: "Okay, let's leave it at that for now. Teacher Yan, you will be responsible for notifying Yi Zhonghai and the others to come to the street office to explain the situation."

"Director Wang, don't worry. I promise I can get it done for you." Yan Bugui agreed with a smile on his face.
