Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

After He Yuzhu returned home, he hurriedly pushed his bicycle and went out with his wife and sister. His relationship with the Jia family can be said to be irreconcilable. The old woman was not a good person, and his son Jia Dongxu was naturally not a good person either. He knew that Jia Zhang cursed his family behind his back every day, and he would not rush to lick her ass.

In the yard, they saw He Yuzhu running away first. With a leader, several families who had conflicts with the Jia family also ran away. They really hated this old thing Jia Zhang. Some of them had helped the old Jia family, but in return they were repaid with ingratitude.

In the Jia family's dictionary, it is natural for you to help me. If you don't help me, it is unacceptable. With the leader, the people in the yard ran away. After all, they were not willing to spend three dollars to eat at the Jia family's banquet.

Su Manzi was at home. He looked at his mother in surprise and said, "No one in this courtyard wants to go to the old family's feast, why are you rushing to go? Don't you know who that old thing Jia Zhang is? She is nothing."

Mother Su hit her son twice with her cane and said, "Bullshit, I will never allow you to talk nonsense. The old sister-in-law is a good person, she is a capable person. A widow raised a child, you younger generations can't understand and be considerate."

Su Manzi wanted to say a few more words. After all, he worked in the steel mill and had a bad relationship with Jia Dongxu. Especially after hearing from the people in the courtyard that only one person from each family could go, and the minimum contribution was three yuan. Su Manzi was reluctant for a while. When Su's mother saw her son like this, she started crying and making a fuss.

Su Manzi sighed, took out two dollars from his pocket and said, "I only have two dollars in my pocket, if you want to give it, just give it. It was written on the Jia family's invitation yesterday that the minimum you have to pay is 3 dollars. Jia Dongxu and I don't have any good feelings for each other at all. If you go, you can take out one dollar from your own treasury."

Seeing that his mother was still trying to make trouble, Su Manzi simply took his wife's hand and followed the people out of the yard. This made Su's mother very angry. When he was at home, she would cry, make trouble, and even hang herself. Her son would definitely give in, but she didn't expect that he didn't give in this time, which made Su's mother very angry. It must be the ghost of that vixen wife, or the old sister of the Jia family was right. You can't find a beautiful daughter-in-law for your son, otherwise your son will follow her and resist you.

Jia Zhang was sitting on the kang, smiling. Today he had to collect some money to enrich his own coffers. He had already planned that the money must belong to her, Jia Zhang. At worst, he would have a quarrel with his son and daughter-in-law.

After Jia Dongxu discussed with his master, he returned home and asked his mother, "Mom, why hasn't the chef you asked come yet? And where are the ladies in the yard? Why is there no one here yet?" Liu Chunhua also agreed and asked, "Yes, Mom. My relatives from my mother's side are coming soon, and I can't lose face."

Jia Zhang frowned, and a thoughtful look appeared on her old face. A bad idea popped up in her mind. She looked at Jia Dongxu and said, "Have you distributed the invitations I gave you yesterday to the people in the courtyard? What was the attitude of the people in the courtyard when they received the invitations?"

Jia Dongxu was embarrassed for a moment, then thought about it and said, "What invitation? I didn't send it out at all. The master said that the invitation you made was really too much. Only one person from each family can come and you have to pay three yuan for it. No one will come. So I didn't send it out, and just gave a verbal notice."

Jia Zhang was very angry and glared at her disobedient son. But she thought her son was right and wanted to say something. Xu Gaoshan shouted from outside, "Is the old sister-in-law of the Jia family at home? Is the old sister-in-law of the Jia family at home?"

"Hey, I'm here, please wait a moment," Jia Zhang replied from inside the house, put on her shoes and opened the door. Seeing Xu Gaoshan coming, Jia Zhang's old face was very happy. He said cheerfully, "Dongxu, please come out. This is Master Xu Gaoshan whom I invited, and he is also a famous chef in our city."

Jia Dongxu smiled and quickly handed over the cigarette and said, "Master Xu, please smoke. I'm sorry to bother you with today's matter. My husband and I are very grateful." Xu Gaoshan nodded, but then looked at Liu Chunhua next to him. He thought to himself that this young man was so handsome, how could he find such a wife.

But it was none of his business. He smiled and said a few words of congratulations, then said, "Where is the kitchen? When are you going to have dinner?" Liu Chunhua said, "We have to wait for about two hours. My parents will be back at about 9:00. You can take a rest in the living room first, have a cup of tea, and take your time."

Liu Chunhua poured Xu Gaoshan a cup of tea. Xu Gaoshan nodded with satisfaction and said, "My sister-in-law has found a good daughter-in-law. Let's drink tea first. I have taken a look at the menu my sister-in-law ordered yesterday. Are you sure you want these dishes?" Xu Gaoshan took out the menu that Jia Zhang ordered before leaving yesterday from his pocket and handed it to the young couple.

Jia Zhang's eyes widened. She didn't expect that he actually gave this menu to her son and daughter-in-law. Xu Gaoshan knew what kind of person Jia Zhang was? In order to avoid trouble later, Xu Gaoshan decided to go straight to Huanglong. Jia Dongxu and his wife looked at each other, and Liu Chunhua was the first one who couldn't stand it.

Liu Chunhua said unhappily, "The banquet you prepared is too vegetarian. The only meat dish is fried pork with sauerkraut. This is really too..." Jia Dongxu on the side also said, "Mom, the dishes you ordered are really too vegetarian. Why don't we add some meat dishes so that the guests can have a good meal."

Jia Zhang curled her lips and said unhappily, "What are you two bastards yelling about? Don't you know that I have a bad heart? Are you looking forward to your mother and my return to the west? It's good enough to have something to eat, what else do those people want? Do they want to eat abalone and shark fin, delicacies from the mountains and the sea? I'm telling you two, I set the menu like this for your future well-being, not for myself."
