Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

He Yuzhu nodded and said to his wife with a smile, "Heat up the food and let the two little girls eat before going to sleep. I will watch the fun here for a while and go home later." Qin Huairu nodded and went home with a smile on her face.

This really pissed off Yan Fugui, especially He Yuzhu's disregard for others. But he couldn't do anything about He Yuzhu, so he could only snort and walk away. He Yuzhu didn't care about that. His current focus was on the conflict between Jia's mother and son.

When Jia Zhang heard that her daughter-in-law was going to kick her out of the house, and saw her son standing there motionless, she immediately began to perform the art of summoning spirits. She cried and shouted, "Hey, Old Jia, come up and take a look. This new daughter-in-law is going to kick me out of the house. And these people in the yard who are watching the fun, Old Jia, take them away too. These people are all bad guys, they are going to bully your daughter-in-law to death."

Hearing these words, the people in the yard were not happy. They shouted, "Hey, Aunt Jia, you are going too far. You have hurt us so badly today. Did we say anything harsh to you? You are going too far. You actually cursed us like this."

"That's right. It seems that the three yuan fine is really too little. It should be five yuan to teach your Jia family a lesson. We have never heard of any son getting married and the mother picking up some rotten vegetable leaves and stale pork from the market to prepare the banquet. And the chef you invited today seems to be the one who cooks for the prisoners."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at the person who spoke. Yi Zhonghai's face was even darker. He said that the man named Xu Gaoshan was so familiar. It turned out to be this familiar. He finally figured it out. Xu Gaoshan was the old bachelor who had an unclear relationship with Jia Zhang after the death of Old Jia.

Yi Zhonghai is having a headache now. Jia Dongxu is the ideal person to take care of his old age. He also regards Jia Dongxu as his own son. Jia Zhangshi is this person. Yi Zhonghai said she was a shrew, which seemed to be a compliment to her. Liu Chunhua's performance tonight also made him very dissatisfied.

He walked over with his hands behind his back, and said with a dignified and serious face, "Chunhua, before Lao Liu left, he asked me to discipline you. How can you say that? The old sister-in-law is your mother-in-law. What's the matter? You just took over for a few days, do you want to kick your mother-in-law out of the house? Aren't you afraid that the neighbors will poke you in the back? Filial piety and respect for the elders are what every Chinese son and daughter should do."

Liu Chunhua knew that she had no basis in this regard, but after thinking about it, she still said, "Uncle Yi, but my mother-in-law fell into the toilet today. The smell was really too bad, and my husband and I couldn't stand it." Hearing Liu Chunhua call him Uncle Yi, Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied in his heart. After all, from this title, Liu Chunhua regarded him as an elder.

But when Yi Zhonghai heard Liu Chunhua say this, he was unhappy and scolded her mercilessly, "Nonsense, how can you talk like that? Your mother-in-law is in very good health now. If one day your mother-in-law is paralyzed in bed, covered in feces and urine, will you still despise your mother-in-law then? Take your mother-in-law home quickly and apologize to her now."

Jia Zhang was unhappy and said, "Yi Zhonghai, who are you cursing?" Yi Zhonghai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "No, who cursed you? I was just making an analogy just now." Liu Chunhua was very reluctant. She didn't want to apologize to such an old woman like Jia Zhang. She shook her head and said, "Am I wrong? I am not wrong. Today is the wedding night of me and his son. He is like a toilet now. The old Jia family only has one room. As a mother-in-law, can't he carry forward the spirit and let me sleep with his son first?"

Xu Damao, who was watching the fun from the side, said without thinking, "Yes, Aunt Jia. I think what my sister-in-law said is right. I can smell the odor on you even when I'm standing here. If you sleep in the house, what will the young couple do?" Hearing what Xu Damao said, the people in the yard laughed.

Jia Zhang glared at Xu Damao with a dark face and said, "Xu Damao, if you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb. This is our Jia family's family affair, and it is not your turn as a junior to speak. Go back to where you came from, and be careful that I will tear your nasty mouth apart."

Jia Zhang's expression was very angry. She hated those who said such sarcastic things. But when she looked at her aggrieved son, she also knew that she was very dirty. She sighed and said, "Okay, you are right. I am a mother and I have to make a good start. You two can sleep in this room today. I will just stay in the kitchen for one night."

Yi Zhonghai was not happy about it. It was not because he felt sorry for the fat old woman Jia Zhang. If this set a bad precedent, when Yi Zhonghai got old, would his good apprentice also drive him to sleep in the kitchen? After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, "No, how can an old man sleep in the kitchen? Let the young couple sleep in the bedroom? Isn't this promoting unfilial piety? I strongly disagree."

Looking at the people around him and listening to their discussions, Yi Zhonghai thought about what he said and finally decided, "Let's hold a general meeting at night so that everyone can discuss what to do about today's incident. Now everyone should gather in the middle courtyard, and no one should be absent."

Xu Damao put his hands in his pockets and pouted, saying, "We need to hold a meeting for such trivial matters. This is the Jia family's family affair. Why should we care so much?" Hearing what Xu Damao said, Yi Zhonghai glared at him fiercely. This frightened the young Xu Damao, who shrank his neck and hid among the crowd.

Liu Haizhong was very envious when he saw Yi Zhonghai's powerful and commanding manner. He also encouraged him and said, "Old Yi is right. Being filial to the elderly is what we should do. It is not only the family affairs of the Jia family, but also the affairs of our courtyard. It is a big matter in our courtyard. Old Yi is right. We must hold this courtyard-wide meeting seriously."

Hearing Liu Haizhong's nonsense, the neighbors in the yard wanted to laugh but didn't dare. Everyone knew that Liu Haizhong was petty. Although Liu Haizhong didn't have as much prestige as Yi Zhonghai in the steel mill, he was still a sixth-level forger after all, and he could still make things difficult for ordinary people.
