Jia Zhang had been hiding in the house, quietly observing the situation outside. She wanted to go out and solve the matter herself, but was stopped by Jia Dafu.

Jia Dafu said that he wanted to let his son gain more experience and go through more things so that he would have a bright future.

Jia Zhang listened to her husband, but she was still worried, so she hid behind and observed quietly.

When she heard that Yi Zhonghai was actually helping outsiders and wanted to take out his own meat to share with these children, she couldn't help it.

He rushed out directly and said those words just now.

She would rather die than share her own meat with these beggars.

Her words not only ruined the reputation of her Jia family, but also offended other residents of the courtyard, who hid in the dark and secretly watched their own children.

When they heard Jia Zhang calling her own children beggars, they were all furious.

If they were not forced to do so, they would not let their children come out to beg for meat. They let their children come out to beg for meat just because they wanted them to have a taste of meat.

Many people saw the Jia family buying meat, and they were not afraid of being embarrassed as long as they could let their children eat meat.

These residents are ordinary people. They are illiterate and uneducated. Having experienced the war years, they don’t care much about face.

Besides, it's dark now and most of the children have come. The law cannot hold everyone responsible, and there are unwritten rules in the courtyard, so they are not afraid of being embarrassed at all.

What I am most afraid of is that the children won’t be able to get any meat. If they can’t get any meat, the reputation of the Jia family will definitely be ruined by them in the courtyard tomorrow.

They won't say it openly, but what they say in private, only they know.

Yan Bugui, who was hiding in the back, saw this situation and looked at the Jia and Yi families with glee. As long as his three sons could get the meat, he didn't care even if he lost some face.

Anyway, I was hiding in the dark and no one saw me.

He planned to go to the Lin family after the Jia family divided the meat.

Until now, the Lin family has not opened the door, obviously wanting to hide in the house, but he had already made a plan and would definitely make the Lin family bleed.

Yi Zhonghai also knew the consequences of this. He was just thinking of shifting the blame to someone else, but he didn't expect that Jia Zhang, this stupid teammate, would come out and say these words, which made him hold back what he was about to say.

He looked at Jia Zhang with a dark face, which made Jia Zhang feel a little scared.

"Yi Zhonghai, what are you looking at? Is there anything wrong with what I said? I tell you, I will never share my meat with beggars like you!"

"That's right, beggars, why don't you beg on the street during the day? People passing by will see that you are pitiful and might even give you some money to spend!"

After listening to his mother Jia Zhang's words, Jia Dongxu also agreed. He also disliked these children.

When he saw the children gathered here, he became very angry. If he could hit people, he would have wanted to drive them away with a stick.

The words of the mother and son stimulated the children.

The parents behind them almost couldn't help but stand up and support their children, but with Yi Zhonghai standing there, no one dared to be the first to stand up.

After all, they were in the wrong, and if they made a fuss, they would not get any good results.

Yan Bugui was so angry that his face turned red and white. The word "beggar" deeply irritated him.

He is a teacher and an educated man, but his three children were called beggars, which greatly insulted his self-esteem!

However, he did not stand up. If he had, he would have lost all face.

However, he remembered this humiliation and would take it back from the Jia family sooner or later.

After hearing what the two said, Yi Zhonghai's face turned even darker, but in the dark night, no one could see his dark face.

Such bad teammates made him feel deeply powerless. The reputation he had built up in Siheyuan for so long was about to be lost.

He no longer cared about Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu. He wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible, otherwise his reputation would be affected.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard someone among the children talking.

"Auntie Jia, I'm not a beggar. Your family just has a little money to buy meat. What's so great about that? In the past, when other families bought meat, they would share some with us, but your family never did. Now you call us beggars! Your family is really stingy!"

"That's right, the stingy, miserly Jia family will be struck by lightning sooner or later!"

"Bullshit! Shut up! Don't think I don't know who of you is talking. If I catch you next time, you'll be in trouble!"

When Jia Zhang heard that these children dared to make up stories about the Jia family in this way, she became immediately furious and started scolding the children.

The children were frightened by Jia Zhang's angry expression and dared not make a sound.

At this time, Jia Dafu really couldn't stay in the house anymore. If he let his wife continue to make trouble like this, not only would he offend all the residents in the courtyard, but he would also ruin the reputation of the Jia family.

He walked out immediately and stood at the door, pretending not to know what was going on.

"What's wrong? What happened? I worked all day and was just lying down to rest. I was sleeping soundly when I was woken up!"

No one understood what Jia Dafu said, but no one exposed him. When Jia Zhang saw her husband coming out, she immediately felt more confident.

She looked at Yi Zhonghai with contempt, as if to say, you are not reliable at all, your man is still capable.

Yi Zhonghai also noticed Jia Zhang's eyes and understood them. He felt very depressed, thinking that good intentions were not rewarded.

"Boss, these kids came to ask for meat, and I told them I wouldn't give them any, but they just stood there and refused to leave! I told them to leave, but they still stood there, so I scolded them! Boss, you have to help me make the decision!"

Jia Zhang cooperated with Jia Dafu and did the whole trick.

Jia Dafu was unwilling to share the meat with these children from the bottom of his heart. He did not have enough meat to eat himself, and if he shared it, it would be even less.

But in order to improve his family's reputation, he had no choice but to share the meat with reluctance.

He turned to look at Yi Zhonghai, then looked at the children, and said awkwardly:

"Children, it's not that I don't want to share the meat, but we have enough to eat. This meat is for my Jia family and the Yi family to eat together, and there is also the old lady in the backyard. If I share it with you, the old lady in the backyard will not be able to eat the meat!"

"We have always had the traditional virtue of respecting the elderly and loving the young in our courtyard. You are all sensible children. You don't want the old lady to not have any meat, do you?"

"Yes! The old lady is our elder. You younger generations should give way to the elders. This is what filial children should do!"

Yi Zhonghai also echoed him, and the two of them talked back and forth and fooled the children.

These children didn’t understand any profound principles and felt that what the two said made a lot of sense, so they all lowered their heads in shame.
