Siheyuan: Starting from Building a Village

"Mom, I'm fighting Bang Geng, but I can't kill him."

"Mom, there's me too. I can do that, too."

Da Mao and Er Mao were eager to try and wanted to take the opportunity to teach Bang Geng a lesson again.

"Come back here, both of you. What are you fighting for? We are in the right. Is there any need to fight?"

Liang Ladi was quick to act and grabbed Damao and Ermao.

"Hmph, Widow Liang, you don't dare to let your son compete with my grandson, right? If you don't dare to compete, then just pay the money and apologize."

Seeing Liang Ladi stop Damao and Ermao, Jia Zhang felt that she could do it again. She immediately became proud again and took the opportunity to take two steps forward.

"How much compensation?"

"Fifty, no, one hundred. This matter cannot be settled without one hundred dollars today."

Jia Zhang thought that Liang Ladi had given in. Since she had to pay compensation, of course she had to make it big.

"Aunt Jia, this is wrong. How can you be so arrogant as to ask for a hundred dollars right away? You are just robbing me."

Sha Zhu's eyes were always on Liang Ladi. When he heard Jia Zhang asked for a compensation of 100 yuan, he came back to his senses. Is this possible? He Sha Zhu couldn't just watch such a beautiful young widow being blackmailed by Jia Zhang.

"Silly Zhu, get out of the way, what do you want here?"

Jia Zhangshi has always looked down upon Shazhu, a foolish fellow who looks like he is forty even though he is in his twenties and only dreams about beautiful things every day.

"Aunt Jia, if the road is not smooth, someone will step on it. If things are not fair, someone will intervene. You are asking for too much. I, Shazhu, will not agree to it."

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, he looked at Liang Ladi proudly and raised his eyes thinking he was very handsome.

"Silly Zhu, you old bachelor, why are you pretending to be a hero? Everyone knows that you are the same as your father, thinking about other people's wives every day, bah!"

Jia Zhang looked down upon Sha Zhu and scolded him whenever she wanted.

"Jia Zhang, believe it or not, I will beat you up."

When Sha Zhu's thoughts were exposed, his old face immediately turned red with shame.

"Hit me, idiot. I don't look down on you. The person who hit me wasn't even born yet."

Jia Zhang pinched her waist, puffed out her chest and raised her head, spitting everywhere, and forced Sha Zhu to retreat.

"puff.."

Finally someone couldn't help laughing.

"Whoever has the guts, come out and I will scold you to death."

Faced with Sha Zhu's defeat, Jia Zhang was full of confidence.

"Jia Zhang, please stop making trouble."

"That's right, no one dared to hit you? Why is your face swollen?"

“Hahahaha, I don’t know who it is. He didn’t dare to say a word after being beaten by Master Liang just now.”

"You know what, Shazhu is stupid, but there is one thing he doesn't do: hit women."

"That's why Jia Zhang dared to point at his nose and scold him."

"I don't think that's right. They say Sha Zhu likes Qin Huairu, so he should love her and her dog."

"I agree with this. It's something everyone in Nanluoguxiang knows."

"Don't talk nonsense. Let's not believe in rumors or spread them."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Jia Zhang was not stupid, so she naturally understood the meaning of the words. She wanted to curse at that time, but when she looked around and saw that there were people from other courtyards everywhere, she had to shut her mouth. There were not only men here, but also a few old women. The men didn't dare to hit her, but the old women did.

"I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense and ruin my reputation. I still want to marry and have children to continue the He family's lineage."

Jia Zhang didn't dare to speak, but Sha Zhu dared. What's more, he had to explain what needed to be explained in front of the beauty. Even if one word might sound pale and powerless, it was better than saying nothing.

"Master Liang, don't get me wrong, I never said I liked Qin Huairu."

"Master He, whoever you like is your freedom. I can't ask, and I don't have the heart to ask."

"No, Master Liang, I'm telling the truth."

Liang Ladi finally understood that Sha Zhu was a very outgoing person and the kind of person who felt good about himself. She became more and more impatient. Even though she was a young widow with four children, she didn't want to find a forty-year-old man. Sha Zhu looked like he was in his forties, so he naturally didn't catch Liang Ladi's eye.

"Jia Zhang, pay me a hundred dollars. If you are one cent short today, don't blame me, Liang Ladi, for being ruthless."

"what?"

Jia Zhang's face is full of question marks now. She doesn't know where Liang Ladi got the courage to ask the Jia family to pay compensation.

"Jia Zhang, if you don't want your grandson to go to juvenile detention, then pay the money honestly, otherwise even the king of heaven will come to stop you."

"I'll pay you for it, Liang, do you think you can blackmail my Jia family just because you have the support of Sha Zhu?"

"Ms. Jia Zhang, stop talking nonsense. I just want to ask you, are you going to pay the money or not?"

"Compensation, of course you have to compensate. It's your Liang family that will compensate our Jia family."

"That means there's no need to discuss it?"

"If we don't discuss it, it won't work no matter who comes."

Jia Zhang has always been the kind of person who would make trouble no matter how unreasonable it is. Now that she thinks she is in the right, it is even less likely that she will give in.

Liang Ladi said loudly: "Which neighbor can go to the police station to report the case and say that someone is robbing people on the road."

"No way, are you reporting it to the police now?"

"Hehe, Master Liang's family has done nothing wrong, so of course they dare to report it to the police."

"That's right. If you encounter people like the Jia family, you should report them to the government and let the government teach them a lesson."

"As long as Master Liang reports the case, two people from the Jia family will definitely go to jail."

"Isn't there only Bangteng? Which one is that?"

"Alas, you still don't understand. That one is of course Jia Zhang."

"It is not the place of Jia Zhang to rob people on the road."

"Extortion, yes."

"Oh, I forgot about that."

The onlookers did not speak behind Jia Zhang's back, and Jia Zhang heard every word they said clearly.

"My dear grandson, let's go."

Jia Zhang was not stupid. She originally thought that the young widow had the upper hand and could make a fortune from this incident, but she didn't expect to meet a rouge tiger who didn't fall for her tricks.

"Mom, why are you leaving? We are right, what are you afraid of?"

At this time Qin Huairu came back with someone. She thought Jia Zhang was scared because of being beaten, so she hurriedly spoke out to stop them.

"Liang Ladi, my mother-in-law is timid, but I am not afraid of you. Without 200 yuan today, this matter cannot be completed."

"Huai Ru, you."

After hearing what Qin Huairu said, Jia Zhang almost fainted on the spot. She really didn't expect that Qin Huairu was even more ruthless than her, and she was so bold to ask for 200 yuan right away.

"Mom, don't be afraid. I'll invite Brother Cheng and Brother Dake to come."

Qin Huairu met the two people at the gate of the courtyard, and she coaxed and tricked them into coming to cheer her up.

"That's right, Aunt Jia, don't be afraid. I, Cui Dake, love to stand up for the weak. With me here, I don't think anyone can do anything to you."

"Yes, and I, Yan Jiecheng. Anyone who dares to embarrass my sister Qin is not giving me face."

The two guys knelt for four hours and could hardly walk steadily. When they heard that Qin Huairu was looking for someone to help, they rushed over to perform well in front of the pretty widow.
