However, Jia Zhangshi did not say anything to Zhang Jialiang. She looked as if she knew everything and continued:

"I heard that your family had delicious fish soup yesterday, and today you brought back a big fat rabbit and a few fish.

My grandson smelled the meat and was so greedy that he insisted on eating some meat. Besides, my daughter-in-law is pregnant again and she really needs additional nutrition.

I just want to borrow some meat from your family. When I get the meat coupons next month, I will buy some meat and return it to you."

Jia Zhang is indeed a very smart and eloquent person. At least now what she says is very logical and it sounds quite reasonable at first glance. If you are not prepared, it is easy to fall into her trap.

"About this matter, your daughter-in-law has already come here.

My son Liangzi did bring back some prey today, but it was all prepared for his grandmother. His grandmother has not been in good health recently, and the doctor said at the hospital that she needed to increase her nutrition.

You should know that our family's situation has been going on for many years, but it's still not as good as yours.

There are many people and the income is little. This little bit of food is the result of Liangzi's hard work for a month. In the past month, Liangzi has been running dozens of miles outside the city every day to get this little bit of meat. It took more than a month to get this little bit.

These are to be saved for his grandmother to eat a little every day. No one else in our family will touch them. Just now, my daughter Jiali was crying and wanted to eat some meat and drink some soup, but I didn't agree.

Our two families are both in a difficult situation. The old man in the yard earns a lot of money and has a small family. He is also your Dongxu's master. Why don't you find the old man and think of a solution?"

When Jia Zhang heard this, she was about to burst into anger. She had been so humble and came to your Zhang family in person to ask for food, and she even said it was a loan and would be returned next month, but you just didn't give her any face. Isn't it obvious that she looks down on me and our Jia family?

You still want to push me to Yi Zhonghai? Do I need you to teach me how to borrow things from Yi Zhonghai?

I can't do it myself?

Besides, the old guy is even more stingy. He earns so much money, but he is always so stingy. The old couple are reluctant to spend it themselves, let alone others go to his house to borrow money.

Although on the surface he was very nice and caring to my Dongxu, he only gave him a few kilograms of corn flour every month and nothing else.

She has tried many times over the years and has long understood what kind of person Yi Zhonghai is. Now she has no hope on him. Moreover, because he is Dongxu's master and the eldest uncle of a courtyard house, she cannot fall out with him.

Yi Zhonghai bullies our Jia family and looks down on us. You, the Zhang family, also dare to look down on us without giving us any face. So I will not be polite, otherwise we will not be able to survive in this courtyard. In the future, anyone will dare to bully our Jia family. Now it is not just a matter of borrowing meat. Now it is related to the face and even life and death of the entire Jia family. Thinking of this, Jia Zhang immediately frowned and no longer maintained superficial harmony. She had to go all out and make a big fuss.

"A big rabbit weighs about five or six pounds, and I heard that a few fish weigh several pounds each. I stewed two pots of meat and asked your family to borrow some meat, but your family refused to agree. My daughter-in-law came over, and I came here in person, but you didn't give me any face at all.

I told you that I would lend you the meat and return it to you next month when I have the meat coupons. But you are determined to make things difficult for our Jia family.

Who doesn’t have difficult times?

As neighbors in the compound, isn't it natural to help each other?

Why is it so difficult in your Zhang family? "

"Just like you said, your daughter-in-law came once, and then you came to our house. When other people's families stew some meat, your family members keep coming over. Is that appropriate?

Is it appropriate for your family to borrow meat when other people are having a meal?

I told you that all the meat in the house should be saved for my grandma. Your family needs nutrition, so doesn’t my grandma need it too?

You have children in your family, so we don’t have children in our family?

Our children are reluctant to eat it, why should we lend it to your family?"

When the second sister Zhang Jiani saw that Jia Zhang's face was sullen, she also said a few very impolite words.

Her mother was indeed a soft-hearted person. After seeing that Jia Zhang was indeed angry, she didn't know how to refute her, so she stood up and spoke to Jia Zhang rudely.

"We adults are talking, why are you, a little girl, butting in?

He has no respect for the elderly at all. How uneducated!

You keep saying that you only stewed a little meat at home, are you kidding me?

I do not believe!

How about taking a look at your kitchen?

Walk! "

When Jia Zhang saw that the second girl of the Zhang family spoke to her so rudely, she was so angry that she retorted without any politeness.

Then she stood up and wanted to go to the Zhang family's kitchen to expose their lie in person. If they really stewed two large pots of meat, she would immediately shout loudly to let the neighbors in the compound see how the Zhang family treated their neighbors!

The Zhang family is full of lies, they are not human!

"Jia Zhang, you little girl came to our house to act like a tyrant!

You can’t even say hello to my old lady when you come into our house?

You also say that our Jiani is uneducated, and you are the most uneducated one!

You come into our house to make trouble, don’t you see whose house this is?

How dare you come to our kitchen to take a look? Who are you? Can you see through me?

You flatter others all day long, borrowing meat from this house and that house, and if they don't lend you meat, you throw a tantrum and make a fuss.

You say it's borrowing, but when has your family ever returned anything borrowed?

Now it's just robbery, right?

What's going on?

The meat in our house is for my health and nutrition, so I won’t lend it to you. Get out of our house right now!”

When Zhang Jialiang’s grandmother saw Jia Zhang’s arrogant attitude, she immediately became unhappy. “Old lady, I’m still sitting here, and you dare to cause trouble in our house?”

She began to teach Jia Zhang a lesson in a domineering and overbearing manner. After all, her generation was higher than Jia Zhang's, and no one could say anything if she scolded her.

Jia Zhang saw that the old lady of the Zhang family had also suffered the same fate, and she spoke rudely and pointedly about the fact that her family had been borrowing and not returning the money, which was equivalent to pointing at her nose and scolding her.

The meat definitely cannot be borrowed today, so the only thing left is to make a noise. And the noise must not be too quiet, it must be heard by everyone in the compound, and everyone must come to see.

Although their family was not in the right, they could pretend to be poor and aggrieved. After winning the sympathy of the people in the compound, the Zhang family would become unreasonable even if they were in the right, and the Jia family would become right even if they were unreasonable. Anyway, they could not be allowed to eat meat to their heart's content.
