Siheyuan: I can integrate everything!

"If he says a word, I won't be able to pass. Don't provoke Wan Xingbang for no reason in the future. This is for my own good!" Jia Dongxu reminded.

As Wan Xingbang's status continued to rise, his power also grew. One word from him was enough to make people fall into the abyss.

"Dongxu, why do you say that?" "When have I ever gotten into trouble?"

"Besides, you are already a formal worker in the factory. Even if he is the director, what can he do? He can't fire you if you don't make any mistakes!"

Jia Zhang felt unhappy. Moreover, in the 60s, once you became a formal worker, it was extremely difficult to fire you. Even the factory director could not easily fire workers, and Jia Zhang knew this very well.

"Mom, do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to understand?"

"I was just an ordinary worker, and Wan Xingbang was not only the director of the technical department, but also had a close relationship with the factory director. Even if he couldn't fire me directly, he could still make things difficult for me and make my life in the factory difficult."

"Just one sentence and I will be criticized by others every day." Jia Dongxu's words were full of helplessness.

Dealing with Jia Dongxu was easy for Wan Xingbang, and he didn't even need to do it himself. As long as there was any sign of it, those who tried to please Wan Xingbang would make his life difficult.

"Okay, I'll listen to you and not provoke him." "Wait, where does this fragrance come from?"

"It must be that Wan Xingbang has started to enjoy the feast again." "Xiaodang, why are you still standing there?"

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago that it's not your turn to eat at home? Why don't you go to Wan Xingbang's house and eat? Do you still want to starve?"

Jia Zhang pulled Xiao Dang up with one hand and pushed her out of the door. Jia Dongxu couldn't help but sigh, his heart full of helplessness and resentment - Wan Xingbang invited Xiao Dang to dinner like this, obviously intending to alienate the relationship between their family.

Although Qin Huairu had a blank expression on her face, she felt much more relaxed in her heart. Xiaodang was not welcomed at home, and it was difficult to even ensure that he had enough to eat, let alone enjoy any good treatment. Since Xiaodang could enjoy as much as he wanted at Wan Xingbang's house, she felt more at ease. "Dongxu, do you see how smart your mother is?"

"I can see clearly that Wan Xingbang is interested in Xiao Dang."

"If he likes it, let him do it. Once Xiaodang is fat and grown up, we can marry her off to someone else and earn a generous dowry."

Jia Zhang's face was full of pride.

Even if Xiaodang eats less outside, at least some food can be saved, so that his family can get more.

In the backyard, just as Wan Xingbang finished cooking, Xiaodang came to the door.

"Uncle Wan, I'm here again, and my family doesn't want me to eat again."

Xiao Dang seemed a little shy and spoke softly, "Did Jia Zhang drive you here?"

Wan Xingbang was not surprised at all.

Jia Zhang is definitely capable of doing such a thing.

There is no need to do it yourself. Just show the slightest hint of interest and those who want to please Wan Xingbang will naturally suffer.

"Okay, I get it, I'll just not mess with him." "Wait, what's going on? It smells so good?"

"Oh, Wan Xingbang is enjoying a feast again." "Xiaodang, why are you still standing there?"

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago? We have no food for you. Hurry up and go to Wan Xingbang, why don't you go quickly? Do you really want to starve?"

Jia Zhang grabbed Xiao Dang and pushed her out of the door. Jia Dongxu sighed, feeling helpless and a little angry.

Wan Xingbang treated Xiao Dang so well, giving him all the delicious food and drinks to eat and drink, but he didn't give any to the Jia family. Isn't this trying to sow discord?

Qin Huairu had a blank expression on her face, but she felt relieved in her heart.

Xiaodang was born in the family, but he was not treated well. Not to mention delicious food, even having enough to eat was a luxury. Of course, Xiaodang never got the chance to have good things.

Xiao Dang was able to have a good meal at the Wan family's place, so she naturally felt relieved. "Dong Xu, look at how smart your mother is."

"I've seen this a long time ago. That bastard Wan Xingbang has been in love with Xiao Dang for a long time."

"Since he likes her, let him take good care of her. When Xiaodang grows up and becomes plump and fair, we will marry her off in exchange for a handsome dowry."

Jia Zhang was quite pleased with herself.

Even though Xiaodang didn’t eat much, it was still a portion after all!

By driving Xiaodang to the backyard, her share of food can be saved, so she can eat more.

In the backyard,

Wan Xingbang had just finished preparing the meal when Xiaodang arrived at the door.

"Uncle Wan, I'm here again. I was kicked out by my family."

Xiaodang seemed a little embarrassed and spoke in a low voice.

"Did Jia Zhang drive you out?"

Wan Xingbang was not surprised at all.

Jia Zhang is capable of doing such a thing.

Xiaodang nodded.

"Alas, this Jia Zhang is really not a human being." "It is Xiaodang's luck to meet you."

The hard of hearing old lady sighed.

She has always disliked Jia Zhangshi and often advised Yi Zhonghai that if Jia Zhangshi stayed, Jia Dongxu would not be able to take care of her in her old age.

Yi Zhonghai just wouldn't listen.

now.

The hard of hearing old lady stopped trying to persuade her.

"Come on, Xiaodang, have you washed your hands?"

Wan Xingbang asked.

"Not yet!"

Xiaodang obediently went into the kitchen, washed his hands, and returned to the table. Wan Xingbang brought a chair and picked up Xiaodang.

Xiaodang is only a little over three years old, and it is indeed a bit difficult for him to climb onto the chair by himself.

"Come on, Xiaodang, have a piece of chicken."

Niu Xiaocao felt sorry for Xiaodang and gave her a piece of meat. Looking at Xiaodang, Wan Xingbang suddenly remembered something.

Is Jia Dongxu about to die?

"My arrival created a butterfly effect and changed the trajectory of many people's destinies."

"Liu Guangqi should have fled after getting married, but now he ran away before getting married."

"In the original plot, Jia Dongxu died in a work-related accident, but this change may mean that he no longer dies in an accident and may even survive until Yi Zhonghai retires."

A question popped up in Wan Xingbang's mind: if Jia Dongxu could really live until Yi Zhonghai retired, would Jia Zhang still let him fulfill his responsibility of supporting him?

After seeing Xiaodang off, the Jia family started their dinner.

The table was simply decorated with stir-fried cabbage, shredded potatoes, steamed buns made of two-grain flour, steamed corn bread, and a small dish of pickled vegetables. This was considered a good meal in the courtyard.

However, the steamed bread was specially reserved for Qin Huairu, while the other three ate steamed buns made of two cups of flour. "I want to eat meat..."

Banggeng took just one bite of the fried cabbage, then angrily threw his chopsticks to the ground and threw the steamed bun made of two-grain flour on the table.

In the past, with the help of Sha Zhu, the Jia family could enjoy delicious meat almost every two or three days. But today, without the lunch boxes brought by Sha Zhu, most of Jia Dongxu's salary has to be used to buy basic food, especially considering that Jia Dongxu is the only one in the family who enjoys the quota of food supplied by the city, and everyone else has to buy more expensive food from the market.

There was no extra money to buy meat.

"Banggeng, pick up your buns!" Jia Dongxu seemed very angry. He felt that Banggeng was getting more and more out of control and often ignored his words. "No, I want to eat meat!" However, such an answer made Jia Dongxu unable to help but slap Banggeng lightly, not to hurt him, but to warn him.

However, Jia Zhang immediately reacted, "Why did you hit my Banggeng?" She slapped Jia Dongxu in the face. It was obvious that she felt sorry for Banggeng. Out of the natural love of elders for the younger generation, she naturally preferred her grandson to Jia Dongxu. Calling Jia Dongxu by his full name was a sign of her anger.

Facing his mother, Jia Dongxu could only smile helplessly, "Mom, Banggeng is not a child anymore, we can't let him do whatever he wants. If he continues like this, he will..." Jia Dongxu was worried about Banggeng's future. Because recently, there were always rumors surrounding Banggeng, both in the factory and in the courtyard - people were tired of his improper behavior, not only did he often have bad intentions, but he also lacked proper etiquette and basic cultivation of respecting elders.

"Stop meddling in my grandson's affairs!" Jia Zhangshi didn't let Jia Dongxu interrupt. "You should be concerned about earning money to support the family. As for how Banggeng should behave, I will teach him a good lesson."

Hearing this, Jia Dongxu became even more worried. He knew that the code of conduct that Jia Zhang taught Banggeng was nothing more than two things - either some sneaky little bad habits, or always being unreasonable when encountering things. Neither of these two things would bring good results.

Shortly after they finished their meal, Xiaodang returned home from the front yard.

"Did you eat meat?" As soon as he entered the door, Banggeng glared at Xiaodang because he smelled the smell of chicken, fish and eggs coming from him.

"Well, yes..." Xiaodang seemed a little afraid of Banggeng's expression at the moment.

"You bastard, you ate your fill all by yourself and didn't even bring some back for me, your brother, to taste. Do you have any conscience at all? I'm going to punish you!"

Seeing this, Jia Zhang immediately became furious. Why couldn't her grandson eat meat while others could?

So she suddenly grabbed Xiaodang and slapped his buttocks hard. Xiaodang immediately burst into tears.

"Mom, why did you hit Xiaodang? She didn't do anything wrong!" At this time, Qin Huairu stepped forward to stop Xiaodang.

"She enjoyed the delicious food alone and didn't remember to bring some back for me. No, she should have brought some back for her brother. This is what she did wrong and she should be blamed." When Qin Huairu tried to try to stop her, she was also beaten several times by Jia Zhang.

For a moment, the house was filled with quarrels and crying.

Qin Huairu hurriedly asked Xiaodang to go out, then she ran to the backyard and hurried out of the house. Jia Dongxu also had a headache and could not stay here for long.

The only ones left at home were Jia Zhang and her son Bang Geng, who kept complaining. As soon as he walked to the door, Jia Dongxu ran into Yi Zhonghai.

"Dongxu, why are you so sad?" Yi Zhonghai looked at Jia Dongxu in confusion, thinking that something must have happened. Hearing the shouting and cursing coming from the Jia family, it should be Jia Zhang who was venting her anger again.

"Hey, Master, when do you think I can really take charge?" Jia Dongxu sighed, "You once said that I should be filial to my mother. Since she is still alive, she should be in charge of the family affairs."
