Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Jia Dongxu was very smart. He stamped his feet and said to his mother, "Mom, how can you say that? Master has been so concerned about my wedding. We should thank him. Apologize to him quickly, or don't blame me for ignoring you."

Seeing his mother trying to summon the spirit, Jia Dongxu became even more unhappy. He snorted coldly and said, "Mom, if you keep making such a fuss, don't blame me, your son, for sending you to the countryside. Today is my big day, you can't do this."

Jia Zhang didn't dare to summon the spirit anymore, because her son's personality was somewhat similar to hers. If she really annoyed her son, Jia Dongxu would definitely send her back to her hometown in the countryside. She shook her head and said, "Mom, I won't make trouble anymore. I won't go back to the countryside. Don't send me to the countryside."

Jia Zhang, who was used to a good life, could not stand the hard life in the countryside. Seeing that his mother had given in, Jia Dongxu snorted coldly and said, "As long as you stop making trouble, I am your son and I will naturally not send you to the countryside."

Jia Dongxu was just trying to scare his mother. If he really sent his mother to the countryside, the people in the yard would definitely break his spine. Jia Dongxu thought about it and decided that today's banquet could not be changed. After all, the dishes and guests had already been prepared. If he postponed it, he would lose face.

So he gritted his teeth and said to his master, "Master, we don't need to reschedule. Let's hold my and Chunhua's wedding today." Yi Zhonghai looked at the remaining people in the yard, thought for a while and said, "But there are so many people in the yard."

Jia Dongxu smiled bitterly and said, "I won't accept gifts. I'll treat everyone to a meal for free." When the people who stayed in the yard heard that the Jia family didn't want gifts for the banquet, they opened their eyes wide and asked, "Dongxu, are you serious? You really treat everyone to a meal for free." Jia Zhang was furious. How could her son do this?

She wanted to persuade them but was stopped by Liu Chunhua. Knowing what her husband meant, Liu Chunhua echoed, "Yes, we are all neighbors in the same courtyard. My husband and I will not accept any gifts for this banquet, so that everyone can have a free meal. Please notify everyone in the courtyard, and we will start the banquet after nine o'clock."

Jia Dongxu nodded and said, "Chunhua is right. My husband and I will start after nine o'clock. Please spread the word among us. After all, we live in the same courtyard, so we can't go too far, right?"

The people in the yard looked a little embarrassed when they heard this, but it was only for a moment. Yang Ruihua went back home with a big belly in his hand, and after thinking for a while, he put on a coat and went to the next door yard. His old man was playing chess in the next door yard, and he had to tell his old man the good news.

Yan Fugui in the next courtyard was playing chess with a white-haired old man. The white-haired old man said with a smile, "Old Yan, you haven't asked me to play chess for a while. How come you are so free today?" Yan Fugui smiled awkwardly and said, "Isn't it because I'm in the mood? I can't stop myself when I'm in the mood. Old Wang, you have to be careful when playing chess with me. If you lose this time, your hook will be mine."

The white-haired old man curled his lips and said, "I told you you're fat and you're out of breath. Who's afraid of who? My old Wang's chess skills are still very high." The two wanted to play another game, but saw his wife Yang Ruihua looking for him for a while with a big belly. The white-haired old man smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, why did you find us here? Are you afraid that Old Yan will do something bad with me?"

Yang Ruihua quickly smiled and said, "Brother, you are joking. Something happened in the yard and I want to talk to our old Yan." Yan Fugui and Yang Ruihua went to a corner, and Yang Ruihua told them the whole story. When Yan Fugui heard that he didn't need to pay for the banquet, his eyes lit up immediately.

Yang Ruihua thought for a while and said, "Are we still going to participate?" Yan Fugui nodded and said, "Of course we should participate. It's free food. Who would not eat it if they were idiots? I'll go find those guys and let them join in the feast." Yang Ruihua thought for a while and said, "Isn't this a bad idea? After all, there are five of us plus those three naughty boys."

Yan Fugui shook his head and said, "How is this inappropriate? With Jia Zhang's hateful look, who would be willing to attend her son's wedding? We are helping the Jia family, and they should thank us. Don't worry about it, just go home first. I will go find Jie Cheng and the other three now."

Yan Fugui greeted Old Man Wang and said, "Brother, I have some things to do at home. I'm afraid I can't go out with you today." Old Man Wang said nonchalantly, "If you can't go out, then you can go and do your thing first." Yan Fugui thanked him again and hurriedly followed his wife out of the courtyard next door.

Yan Fugui found Yan Jiecheng and his group in a park not far from the courtyard. Almost all the young people in the courtyard were in the park. Seeing their father coming, the three Yan Jiecheng brothers asked curiously, "Dad, why are you here?" Yan Fugui said with a smile, "Let's go to the banquet at the Jia family."

Xu Damao curled his lips and said, "Uncle, are you sick? Each person has to pay three dollars, and only one person in the family can go. I don't want to go." Yan Fugui waved his hand and said, "Your aunt has already told me that Jia Dongxu has already said in front of everyone in the yard that we don't have to contribute and he is just treating us to a meal for free."

Xu Damao opened his mouth wide and asked, "Ah, this is true." Yan Fugui nodded and said with a smile, "How can this be false? Let's go quickly. I'm hungry too." Xu Damao smiled and put the melon seeds in his hand into his pocket and said, "Okay, okay, let's go to the banquet quickly."

Xu Damao brushed the dirt off his buttocks, and followed Yan Fugui and his group back to the courtyard with a smile. Many people had gathered in the courtyard, and everyone knew that the Jia family would not charge for the meal today, so many people in the courtyard were naturally very happy.
