Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

In the front yard of the Red Star Courtyard, Yan Fugui was standing in the front yard with a smile on his face. He had been thinking about it all night yesterday and felt that it was a very good thing for He Yuzhu to send his wife to work in the factory, so he had to set up a few tables to have fun. Today, he had to make He Yuzhu bleed from the mouth, as he hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

He Yushui was playing with the children in the yard. The children of this era were the best. They did not have as much homework as in later generations. After finishing the few homeworks they had, they would go out to play with their friends. The relationship between the children was very harmonious. There was no need to buy expensive toys for their children. Sometimes a big iron ring could make these children happy for a long time.

It was unknown when the snow started to fall from the sky, which made the people in the yard wrap themselves tightly. Qin Huairu was cooking in the kitchen with an apron on, and every household could smell the unique fragrance. This made Jia Zhangshi, who was also in the middle courtyard, very angry, and she started to curse at him.

Xu Erni's face turned pale. She really didn't expect that her mother-in-law would be so fierce. Her brothers had already returned to their hometowns. She was now afraid and didn't know how she was going to live in this courtyard.

Listening to Jia Zhang's scolding getting more and more excessive, Xu Erni tried to say, "Mother-in-law, please stop scolding." Jia Zhang's face darkened, and she glanced coldly at Xu Erni beside her, and scolded unkindly, "You little bitch from the countryside, how dare you pick a fight with me. I heard that you and that little bitch Qin Huairu are from the same village. I wonder why? You two seem to have a good relationship."

Xu Erni could see that her mother-in-law had a deep grudge against Qin Huairu, so she naturally couldn't admit it. She forced a smile awkwardly and said, "Qin Huairu and I are not familiar with her family at all." Jia Zhang snorted coldly and said, "Humph, you are not familiar with them. Just look at your tone and you say you are not familiar with them. You are as disgusting as that bitch Qin Huairu. It really makes me angry."

She simply didn't want to stay in this suffocating room anymore, so she picked up the insoles beside her and prepared to go outside to get the insoles to chat with the aunties around her. As soon as she left her house, the young girls and wives who were chatting under the big tree had all gone home. Jia Zhang felt that these people must be targeting her on purpose, and her face became even more unfriendly.

In fact, Jia Zhang was overthinking. It was already night, and the mainstay of the family would come home. As a qualified wife and mother, she must let her husband or son have a full meal. Jia Zhang was very aggressive and never cooked dinner. The other young ladies had their own housework, and no one wanted to talk to Jia Zhang often.

At this time, Liu Chunhua happened to come in, and the head secretary's anger became even greater. Looking at Liu Chunhua, Jia Zhang said sarcastically, "Oh, isn't this Liu Chunhua? A woman who was divorced by my son, you still have the nerve to come to our courtyard again."

Liu Chunhua's face darkened, and there were several black lines on her brows. She snorted coldly at Jia Zhangshi. She didn't want to pay attention to this vicious old woman, but she thought that she and her son had divorced a long time ago. Why should she be humble when she scolded her? Liu Chunhua put her hands on her waist and cursed, "What the hell do you care? Is this courtyard yours? I can come and go as I please? What can you do to me?"

Jia Zhang was very angry, and a nameless fire rose from her heart. Her face was as black as charcoal, and a trace of contempt appeared on her fat face. She felt that Liu Chunhua must be trying to collude with her son, otherwise, why would she return to this courtyard? Liu Chunhua snorted coldly, and at this time Liu Chi also walked in with a few burly men.

Liu Chi's face was very unhappy. If it weren't for the fact that Jia Zhang was a woman and old, he would have slapped her to let her know what flowers are so red. He looked at Jia Zhang with his teeth bared, trying to suppress the anger in his heart and said, "Old woman, where is my daughter's dowry? I brought people to carry my daughter's dowry today."

Jia Zhang shook her head pretentiously and said, "What dowry do you have? I don't understand what you mean." Jia Zhang was obviously trying to cheat, and Liu Chunhua had expected it. During this period of time, she had suffered a lot since she married into the Jia family. Knowing the character of this mother and son, she snorted coldly and said, "Either you return the dowry to me as agreed, or I will call the police. I don't believe that no one will make a decision for me about what happened in our yard yesterday."

Jia Zhang snorted coldly and tried to struggle again, saying, "My son has already given you what you should have given yesterday. Why do you still want to eat more and take more? I tell you, don't even think about it." Jia Zhang smiled coldly. She felt that these people in the courtyard would definitely not betray her.

Liu Chi could no longer bear his temper and wanted to slap Jia Zhang in the face. At this time, Yi Zhonghai and several people came in. Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong quickly grabbed Liu Chi and persuaded him again. Liu Chi snorted coldly and said, "If you knew this old woman was such a person, I would definitely not let my daughter come here to suffer. You damn old woman, I'm giving you a chance. You quickly return my daughter's dowry to me, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

Yan Fugui pushed his glasses on his nose. Although he didn't know Liu Chi, as a teacher, he looked down on Jia Zhang's behavior of going back on her word. He glanced at Jia Zhang and said, "Sister-in-law, didn't we discuss this matter last night? Hurry up and return the girl's dowry to her. No, if you really do this, these young men in our courtyard will never get married again."

Xu Lide was also listening in the crowd just now, and he also agreed with Yan Fugui's statement and said, "Yes, sister-in-law. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Dongxu. Dongxu's reputation cannot be ruined, don't you think?"
