After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Xu Huizhen finally felt more at ease. Looking at his pale and tired face, she asked with concern, "Are you exhausted from helping to interrogate the bad guys? Didn't you sleep all night?"

Although He Yuzhu nodded innocently to indicate that he had indeed not slept all night, to him, it was not tiring but rather a kind of satisfaction - after all, Jia Dongxu was kept busy by him the whole night, which made him feel very refreshed.

At this time, Manager Guo came over with a smile and said, "Yuzhu, you don't have to go to work this morning. Go home and have a good sleep first!"

"Come back to work at the tavern after you wake up. Today is not your day off!"

Manager Guo got along well with them and realized that the key to the prosperity of Xu's Tavern lay not with her but with He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen, so he always turned a blind eye to their going out.

He Yuzhu thanked Manager Guo with a smile and went home to catch up on his sleep.

At the same time, at the execution ground in the suburbs of Beijing, Jia Dongxu was in a trance, mumbling to himself. Even with a gun pointed at his head, he kept repeating: "He Yuzhu, he is a demon!"

With a gunshot, Jia Dongxu's life ended.

It is unknown whether Jia Dongxu regretted escaping from prison and seeking revenge on He Yuzhu in the last moments of his life.

But Jia Dongxu, who suffered punishment from He Yuzhu last night, must have the answer deep in his heart.

Upon learning that her son had been executed by firing squad, Jia Zhang had already prepared herself mentally, but she still burst into tears the moment the news came.

Weeping, she staggered to the execution ground to collect the body.

Even though Jia Dongxu unexpectedly beat her as his mother before he died, the blood relationship in her heart remained extremely strong.

"I am willing to endure more pain even if my pain can bring back his life."

Seeing her son's body covered with wounds, she cried even more miserably.

During the "communication" between He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu, although He Yuzhu gave Jia Dongxu clear spring water to drink to save his life, Jia Dongxu did not seem to recover from the scars on his body. The clear spring water only repaired his bones and saved his life.

Jia Zhang was choking with sobs and couldn't control herself. She grabbed a policeman and asked, "Tell me, who is it? Why are you so cruel to my child?"

Even death by gunpoint is incomparable to such torture.

Once Jia Zhang finds out who is so cruel to her son, she will definitely get to the bottom of it and seek justice for her son.

Policeman Zhang Feng, who was innocently implicated, tried to pull Jia Zhang's tightly clenched hands apart and helplessly advised: "Old lady, please stop causing trouble and take your son's body away quickly! We don't have time to deal with you!"

But no matter how he struggled, Jia Zhang remained agitated and held the police tightly with both hands.

Zhang Feng could no longer suppress his anger and pushed her roughly.

How could an ordinary woman be able to withstand the force of the police? She sat down on the ground and cried uncontrollably, like a wild and hysterical dog barking: "Someone come, the police are beating people!"

Jia Zhang's current behavior is like a mad vicious dog. Anyone will become her target of attack.

Zhang Feng was frustrated by her madness. He spat on the ground and sneered, "Who doesn't know the quality of your family? You should be laughing secretly when Jia Dongxu was not killed on the spot when he was punished! This is already very lucky! Make trouble here and see who will pay attention to you! Be careful or I will arrest you for disturbing public order! Take your son's body back quickly!"

Jia Zhang was still roaring almost crazily, and the saliva from her mouth sprayed directly onto Zhang Feng's face.

After saying this, Zhang Feng waved his hand and walked away, wiping the saliva off his face, spat on the ground, and cursed non-stop.

However, no one paid any attention to the farce caused by Jia Zhang, and they could only quietly leave the execution ground with Jia Dongxu's body.

Back in the courtyard, Qin Huairu had already prepared a coffin for her husband Jia Dongxu and placed it next to the Banggeng coffin.

She knelt there, staring at the two coffins, one big and one small. She heard Jia Zhang's wailing and felt heavy-hearted.

I had originally hoped to escape from rural life and spend the rest of my life in the capital with the Jia family, but I didn't expect that my life would fall into such a predicament. I also have to study the "Secret of Kun Characters" with Yi Zhonghai frequently. These days are really too difficult.

When Qin Huairu thought about this, she felt sad and tears welled up in her eyes. This silent crying also prevented Jia Zhang from making trouble again.

Everyone in the courtyard knew what happened in the Jia family. Yan Bugui and Xu Fugui were watching the whole process and were extremely surprised.

Wasn't Jia Dongxu still in prison a few days ago? How did he suddenly die? So they came forward to ask.

"Qin Huairu, what exactly happened in your family? Why did Jia Dongxu die?" Yan Bugui asked with concern. This was exactly what Xu Fugui was wondering.

Qin Huairu wiped her tears and answered with a trembling voice: "Dongxu...he escaped from prison by himself..."

To be honest, Qin Huairu was not sad about Jia Dongxu's death. Instead, she felt relieved.

Recalling Jia Dongxu's past violence, she wanted to loudly praise him for a good and wonderful death.

But as Jia Dongxu's daughter-in-law, she still had to save her face and appeared extremely sad.

Unfortunately, before she could finish, she was interrupted by Jia Zhang, who yelled at Qin Huairu: "Shut up!"

Then, turning to Yan Bugui, she shouted angrily: "What does my son's death have to do with you! You hypocritical person! Get out of here!"

When Yan Bugui and others saw Jia Zhang's almost insane attitude, even the remaining sympathy they had for the Jia family was completely exhausted.

But when they heard what Qin Huairu said, they realized that Jia Dongxu had escaped from prison without permission.

"Mrs. Jia Zhang, this is really an exaggeration. We all live in the same courtyard, shouldn't we ask a question? Shouldn't we come and care about your family?"

Everyone started talking in agreement.

...

Xu Fugui frowned and said, "It is really inappropriate to set up a mourning hall in the yard for Zhang Jia and Qin Huairu!"

"The smell of the two bodies is already so bad, why haven't you buried them yet?"

"Indeed, it's not just your Jia family that lives here. Putting a mourning hall in the courtyard will cause the whole courtyard to stink!"

"Bury him quickly!"

Hearing these words, Qin Huairu was a little dazed for a moment.

People grow old, get sick and die. According to etiquette, they have to keep vigil. They are just following traditional customs. Are they going to just bury them in such a hasty manner? If the mourning hall is not set up in the yard, where else can it be set up?

Hearing what everyone said, Jia Zhang was furious. She put her hands on her waist and began to scold fiercely: "I told you that you don't want to interfere in our Jia family's affairs!"

"What's wrong with me setting up a mourning hall in my own yard? How can you say such nonsense!"

These words aroused the anger of the people in the courtyard: "It really stinks to leave two bodies here! How can we still live?"

"Your Jia family's fate is retribution! Bah! Disgusting!"

Yan Bugui said righteously: "Ms. Jia Zhang, the deceased should be buried as soon as possible. Why did he have to be left in the yard for so many days?"

“This is simply superstitious!”

Although Jia Zhang cursed and swore, she could not withstand the pressure of the united efforts of everyone in the courtyard. She stomped her feet hard, then sat down on the ground and started crying.

Jia Zhang's heart was filled with hatred, and she completely understood the hypocrisy of the people in the courtyard: they had always liked to bully others by taking advantage of their power, and now that they saw that their family had lost its pillar, they jumped out one by one to bully the two women.

Qin Huairu felt ashamed and embarrassed in the face of everyone's slander, but she could do nothing but wipe away her tears.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai interrupted: "You guys are going too far. How can you treat the Jia family like this!"

"We should have given a helping hand to orphans and widows, not taken advantage of the situation to add insult to injury!"

Seeing his beloved Qin Huairu's eyes filled with tears, Yi Zhonghai felt a sense of empathy.

On the side, Yan Bugui, who saw Yi Zhonghai representing the Jia family, had his eyes slightly moved, and he became suspicious. He immediately asked, "Yi Zhonghai, are you interested in Qin Huairu?"

"You are always so warm and caring to her!"

Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu interact very frequently, so it is natural that people will speculate about their relationship.

Many voices can make gold.

Everyone was pointing fingers at Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, and making malicious comments about their relationship.

"That's right, I guess it's hard to tell whose baby Qin Huairu is in!"

"Yi Zhonghai is so shameless that he actually took advantage of someone else's misfortune to seize his wife!"

"As for Qin Huairu, she was able to hook up with both the master and the disciple, which shows that she has extraordinary means!"

At this time, Yi Zhonghai's reputation in the courtyard plummeted. Listening to what everyone said, his face flushed, but he still gritted his teeth and retorted: "You are slandering me!"

As he spoke, he puffed out his chest and raised his head, ready to confront everyone, "Helping the Jia family is just my kindness!"

"I, Yi Zhonghai, am not as cold-blooded and mean as you guys!"

"Jia Dongxu is my apprentice after all. I said I would protect his family, so I will never sit idly by while you bully their family!"

"Jia Zhang and Huai Ru are now alone and helpless. I really can't stand seeing them being oppressed!"

"Especially since Qin Huairu is pregnant now!"

"I can understand your cruelty, but why do you have such dirty thoughts in your heads?"

"Pooh!"

Amid the chaos in the No. 95 courtyard, Yi Zhonghai solemnly declared that his actions were noble and correct, but whether his words could convince others was another matter...

"It sounds nice, but who would believe it?" someone said sarcastically.

Xu Fugui made the final statement at the right time: "That's enough, stop talking!"

"We have more important things to do!"

Xu Fugui looked at Jia Zhang with sharp eyes and said solemnly in the manner of a great master: "As a great master, I tell you, Jia Zhang, that you are not allowed to place coffins in the courtyard! You must hold a funeral for them today so that they can rest in peace!"

Xu Fugui's request that the Jia family not set up a mourning hall in the yard did indeed have his own selfish motives.

First, he lived in the middle courtyard, and the two coffins placed there looked gloomy and smelled bad, which was disturbing.

Second, he is a newly promoted uncle and needs to establish his authority as an uncle in this way. Faced with the weak power of the Jia family, this is a good opportunity to enhance his prestige in the courtyard.

Jia Zhang was furious and yelled, "You beast! What's wrong with me setting up a mourning hall? You turtle bastard!..."

……

The relationship between the former "big uncle" Yi Zhonghai and the current big uncle Xu Fugui is becoming increasingly tense.

Yi Zhonghai once attached great importance to his dignity in the courtyard, but now his position as the boss has been taken away by Xu Fugui. Thinking of this, he felt as painful as if ants were gnawing at his heart.

Now, seeing Xu Fugui acting like a big boss in the courtyard, this was simply a naked provocation to him. How could a grown man not accept the challenge of others!

Yi Zhonghai, the former "big uncle", was not afraid of the current big uncle Xu Fugui. He rushed forward decisively and slapped Xu Fugui in the face, and cursed: "Xu Fugui, are you still a human being? You even bully two women! How can you be a big uncle?"

Xu Fugui failed to avoid the slap from Yi Zhonghai. After being stunned for a moment, he became furious and the two of them started to fight each other.

"Yi Zhonghai, you are too presumptuous! How dare you hit me? Just wait, I'm going to beat you to death!" Xu Fugui shouted angrily. As the eldest master in the courtyard, he was slapped in public by Yi Zhonghai, which was an insult to him.

Xu Damao had just returned from showing a movie in the village. As soon as he got home, he saw this shocking scene and was surprised and angry.

"What are you doing!" Xu Damao asked, feeling unbelievable that Yi Zhonghai dared to hit his father. "Yi Zhonghai, you dare to hit my father?"

As a son, how could Xu Damao tolerate his father being hurt?

So he immediately joined the battle, grabbing the handy tools around him to support his father Xu Fugui: "Dad, don't worry, I will help you deal with him!"

Xu Damao's hatred towards Yi Zhonghai instantly escalated because this guy dared to hit his father.

Although Yi Zhonghai was physically strong and had the upper hand in the initial fight with Xu Fugui, after Xu Damao fought side by side with Xu Fugui, Yi Zhonghai's situation took a turn for the worse and he was soon knocked to the ground by the father and son.

Xu Fugui took advantage of the situation and rode on his back, beating Yi Zhonghai with his fists and feet. He shouted, "I'll let you be arrogant! I'll let you slap me! Don't act pretentiously in the yard all day long. Who do you think you are? Who in the yard doesn't know your true face? You are so hypocritical!"

Xu Fugui's dissatisfaction stems from Yi Zhonghai's overly domineering behavior in the past. Now that he is a big boss and Yi Zhonghai is still so arrogant, he has to teach him a lesson.

Hehe, this time the opportunity came to him, so Xu Fugui will definitely not show mercy.

Xu Fugui's punches hit the target and he felt very happy inside.

Under the attack of Xu's father and son, Yi Zhonghai was soon screaming in embarrassment.

Yi Zhonghai's face instantly swelled up like a pig's head. He was completely defeated in this battle between the new and old uncles... He begged desperately: "Stop fighting, stop fighting!!"
