Only children in Siheyuan make choices. I want them all.

The old man was dumbfounded when he heard this. He took the bill from Director Niu and began to calculate it. He counted it three times and it was still 263 yuan.

But the old man was not a pushover and he immediately raised questions.

"Why did you buy so many medicinal herbs? Among them are ginseng, deer antlers, winter, spring and summer grass, and ganoderma. I suspect your receipts are fake."

"Yi Zhonghai, please stop making trouble for no reason. The bill has the seals of the pharmacy and the supply and marketing cooperative on it. What makes you say it's fake? You are clearly distorting the facts and shielding Jia Zhang."

"Please ask the public security comrades to revoke Yi Zhonghai's position as the manager. A person like him who cannot distinguish right from wrong is not worthy of being the manager of our courtyard."

Everyone present was smart. They could see from this incident that the fault lay with the Jia Zhang family and the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai.

Director Niu also said with a cold face: "Did you hear that, Yi Zhonghai? Do you have anything else to say? I will inform Director Wang of the Street Office and ask her to revoke your status as the manager."

The old man was stunned. Why was he being targeted for no reason? He spoke with some reluctance.

"Jianjun! This matter is the fault of the uncle. I apologize to you. Please don't ask Director Wang to revoke my status as the uncle in charge. Even if I beg you."

The eldest uncle, Yi Zhonghai, is almost fifty years old and still has no children. He only relies on his insignificant status as the steward to have a little dignity in the courtyard. He does not want to lose this honor, so he can only beg for mercy humbly.

Zhang Jianjun remained unmoved and continued to speak righteously: "You have done this more than once or twice. Today in the factory you deliberately made things difficult for me and even wanted to make a bet with me."

"As a result, I lost my watch and bicycle ticket, and was kicked out of the factory by the senior leader himself. He asked you to go home and reflect on your actions, but you forgot about it that night and immediately retaliated against me."

As Zhang Jianjun spoke, he deliberately pulled the sleeve of his blue workman's suit, revealing the Plum blossom watch on his left hand. Now people around him immediately started talking.

"Isn't this the watch that an old man spent more than 800 yuan to buy? He even showed it off for a long time at the time."

"Yes! For this watch, he even specially set up several tables in the courtyard and treated us all to a meal."

"I didn't expect that Zhang Jianjun would benefit in the end. This guy is really resourceful. I heard that he even became a technical consultant for the factory, with a monthly salary of 126 yuan, which is more than Yi Zhonghai's."

There were already many workers from the Red Star Steel Mill in the courtyard. The news that Zhang Jianjun was in the factory spread immediately, and many people had some ideas at this moment.

The uncle blushed immediately. He had never felt so embarrassed before, so he said angrily, "Just wait for me, my dear boy. We are not done with this matter yet."

After saying these harsh words, the old man was about to turn around and leave, but Jia Zhang blocked his way.

"No, Yi Zhonghai, you can't leave. It's all your fault for talking too much. We have to pay an extra 63 yuan, and you have to pay for it."

An old lady in the crowd immediately became angry. She squeezed out of the crowd and started wrestling with Jia Zhang.

"It was you, an old hag, who stole things from Zhang Jianjun's house, and now you want us to pay for it. I'm going to tear your mouth apart today."

The police present at the scene were no pushovers and immediately separated the two people who were fighting.

"I warn you two, if you do anything again, we will arrest you all. Jia Zhang, do you have any money? If you don't have money to compensate, then come with us to the police station!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang looked at Yi Zhonghai. She still had a trump card that she had not used.

"Yi Zhonghai, are you going to give me the money or not? If you don't, I will make your secret public!"

It turned out that the uncle and his wife had been married for a long time but had no children. The uncle thought that the aunt was infertile, so he set his sights on the widow Jia Zhang.

He also secretly had an underground lover relationship with Jia Zhang for ten years. Who would have thought that it was due to the uncle's own fault.

The old man was threatened by Jia Zhang and immediately became depressed. He took out the only 270 yuan he had from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Jianjun. "Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and give me the change."

When the old lady saw this, she sat down on the ground and burst into tears.

"Oh my God! Our family is already broke, and you have been ordered by your boss to reflect on yourself at home. This life is unbearable. I want to divorce you, Yi Zhonghai."

Although the old man is an eighth-level fitter and earns 98 yuan a month, this does not include bonuses and various benefits.

But last time he compensated Zhang Jianjun more than a thousand yuan, and spent another eight hundred yuan on a watch. Now he has to compensate Jia Zhang for another 263 yuan. No matter how rich he is, he can't afford to be treated like this!

Zhang Jianjun smiled and said, "What's the change? Tomorrow I'll say a few good words to Director Yang for you and let you go back to work."

When the old man heard that this was okay, he left without looking back, regardless of the old woman who was sitting on the ground crying. He was too embarrassed to stay.

Zhang Jianjun picked up 270 yuan for free today, and his mood immediately improved. However, he still pretended to be angry on the surface and said to Jia Zhang and others.

"Forget it this time! Qin Huairu, go home and take good care of your son Bang Geng. Don't let him learn bad things from Jia Zhang. If he dares to steal something worth more than 200 yuan today, he will dare to kill people and set fires tomorrow."

"Who knows, I might get into big trouble in the future and get caught by the police and have to eat peanuts."

When Jia Zhang heard that she was about to start cursing again, Qin Huairu was quick to cover her stinky mouth with one hand.

"Sister Qin knows, thank you, brother Jianjun. Comrade Public Security, since we have already paid the compensation, please release my mother-in-law and my son."

Director Niu nodded.

"Let them go! Let's withdraw our troops."

[The system prompts you that the strengthening potion has been stored in the space, and you can go to the space to extract it at any time. ]

Zhang Jianjun immediately chased after him and escorted Director Niu out the door.

"Thank you, Director Niu! My house was robbed today, so I won't let you stay. I will definitely come to your house to thank you some other day."

Director Niu smiled and said, "You're welcome, Jianjun. Your parents died for their country. I can't watch you get bullied by others. Okay, we're going back, and you should go back as well."

After watching Director Niu and his companions walk away, Zhang Jianjun returned to the courtyard. When he arrived at the doorstep, he found that all the neighbors had not left yet and were waiting for Zhang Jianjun to come back.

"Jianjun! I heard that you have become the technical consultant of the factory and have been noticed by the senior leaders?"

"Jianjun! Don't forget our neighbors. When you were little, I held you in my arms."

When everyone saw Zhang Jianjun coming back, they surrounded him and thanked him.

Zhang Jianjun knew very well that these people were just after benefits. When he was down and out, these people were not so attentive to him, but now that he is rich, these people come up to curry favor with him.

"Dear neighbors, please rest assured that I, Zhang Jianjun, will not forget you all. Tomorrow is Saturday. I will set up a few tables in the yard at noon. Please come and support me."

"No problem! We'll all come to help then."

After everyone agreed, they all dispersed, and the old lady was persuaded to go back by the neighbors.

Zhang Jianjun went home, closed the door, and pulled the curtains. Then he took out the strengthening potion from the space.

I saw a small transparent glass tube containing about ten milliliters of golden liquid.

"Is this the legendary physical strengthening potion? I want to try to see how much it can improve my physical condition."

Zhang Jianjun tilted his head back and drank up the physical strengthening potion. Suddenly, a surge of energy spread throughout his limbs and bones, and the pain of torn muscles swept through his body.

"Ah! Why does it hurt so much? I feel like my body is being torn apart!"

After holding on for a minute, the heart-wrenching pain finally dissipated. Zhang Jianjun picked up a towel and wiped the sweat off his body. Suddenly, he seemed to see something and stood there in a daze.

"Wow! These pectoralis major muscles, these six-pack abs, and even the iliopsoas muscles. I love it!"

The iliopsoas muscle is the muscle that connects the waist to the thigh. It is usually difficult to train. People with strong iliopsoas muscles have stronger waist, abdomen and leg strength.

Zhang Jianjun looked in the mirror and began to admire his muscular body.

At the Jia family's courtyard, as soon as Jia Zhang entered the house, she slapped Qin Huairu in the face.

"You vixen, are you having an affair with Zhang Jianjun? Why did you cover my mouth and prevent me from speaking?"

Qin Huairu was beaten this time, causing her resentment that had been pent up for many years to finally explode. She picked up a chair at home and smashed it directly on Jia Zhang's head.

Jia Zhang was caught off guard and received a big bump on her head. She fell to the ground dizzy.

Jia Dongxu immediately became angry and started to question: "Qin Huairu, are you crazy? Why did you hit my mother?"

Qin Huairu put down the chair and loudly recounted all the grievances she had suffered over the years.

"Have I, Qin Huairu, ever done anything wrong to your Jia family? Apart from the fact that I gave birth to three children for you, Jia Dongxu, have I ever abandoned you since you got into trouble?"

"Not only do I have to work in the factory during the day, but I also have to go home to cook and clean the house at night, and I have to feed Huaihua and wash her diapers. Not only does your mother not take care of me, she also beats me at every turn. I've had enough!"

Jia Dongxu was silent when he heard this, but when he saw his mother, he mustered up the courage to speak again.

"After all, my mom is your elder. A slap on the face won't kill you. Why are you so fussy about it?"

Qin Huairu went up and slapped Jia Dongxu in the face, causing Jia Dongxu to bleed from his nose.

"Qin Huairu, what are you doing? I think you are going crazy."

Jia Dongxu reached out to grab Qin Huairu, but she took a step back to avoid him.

"Jia Dongxu, why are you shouting? A slap won't kill anyone, why are you so fussy about it? Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow to get a divorce."

Qin Huairu has been with Zhang Jianjun for a long time and has actually learned to use magic to defeat magic.

When Jia Zhang heard that her daughter-in-law wanted to divorce her son, she immediately got up from the ground. If Qin Huairu passed away, who would she rely on to take care of her in her old age?

"No! You can't get divorced. Qin Huairu, I know you have someone else outside. It's really a misfortune for our family! Old Jia, come and take a look. Your daughter-in-law is actually bullying us, an orphan and a widow. Take her away quickly."

"You old fool, you dare to curse me? I will tear your mouth to pieces."

Qin Huairu pounced forward and wrestled with Jia Zhang, completely ignoring the three crying children, Banggeng, Xiaodang, and Huaihua.

At this time, Zhang Jianjun has a general understanding of the effects of physical energy through strength, speed and physical strength.

Zhang Jianjun's strength increased fivefold, his speed more than doubled, and his body strength increased fourfold. It was worthy of being a physical strengthening potion produced by the system. He was truly invincible.
