At the gate of the courtyard, Qin Huairu hurried back after buying the pork. She did not dare to delay for fear of being beaten and scolded by Jia Zhang again.
After finally cooking the braised pork, Jia Zhang pretended to praise it a few words and reminded Qin Huairu to listen to her.
Then, Jia Zhang took away the braised pork and stuffed some steamed buns into Qin Huairu's mouth, making the excuse that Qin Huairu had talked back to Jia Zhang and been disobedient before, and asked her to eat the buns outside the house.
Faced with Jia Zhang's harassment, Qin Huairu was filled with anger but did not dare to resist. She knew very well that she could only endure it at this moment and could not confront Jia Zhang head-on.
Qin Huairu stared at the back of the arrogant old woman, feeling full of resentment.
Yi Zhonghai happened to be going out to buy groceries and subconsciously looked in the direction of the Jia family.
Ever since Qin Huairu became pregnant, this kind of special attention has become his instinct.
However, the scene before him destroyed his joyful mood, because he saw Qin Huairu eating steamed buns with tears in her eyes, and he knew that this was another stupid act of Jia Zhang.
Yi Zhonghai walked forward angrily and told Qin Huairu firmly but gently not to eat the Wo Wo anymore. He told her that he would go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables immediately and invited Qin Huairu to have dinner with the deaf old lady.
Yi Zhonghai's move made Qin Huairu feel even more comforted, as if she had grabbed her own life-saving straw.
Seeing the commotion at the door, Jia Zhang rushed out, dissatisfiedly questioning Yi Zhonghai why he was looking for her pregnant daughter-in-law, and accused Yi Zhonghai of having some ulterior motive.
Yi Zhonghai knew Jia Zhang's temperament, so he could only suppress his anger in this situation. He expressed disdain for Jia Zhang's questioning and scolded her for maliciously speculating on his kindness.
This conflict seems calm on the surface, but in fact it is turbulent, and every detail deeply hurts Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai's hearts.
When Yi Zhonghai heard these words, he tried his best to remain calm and retorted: "Jia Zhang, how can you talk like that?"
"She is your Jia family's daughter-in-law Qin Huairu, how dare you slander her reputation like this?"
"You also know that Jia Dongxu is my apprentice, and Qin Huairu is my apprentice's wife. How could I possibly do anything to her?"
"I just saw that the pregnant Qin Huairu could only eat steamed bread at the door. I saw that she was abused by you, so I stood up to seek justice!"
"Look at yourself, you are eating so much, but you let your pregnant daughter-in-law eat rough steamed bread. Where is your conscience?"
Yi Zhonghai knew clearly that Jia Zhang had no evidence that he and Qin Huairu had studied the secret of the character Kun, and that he was just talking nonsense.
But this would damage his reputation in front of everyone, and he could never tolerate Jia Zhang.
If he didn't fight back against Jia Zhang, wouldn't people think that he was indeed guilty? Would people think that Yi Zhonghai was no longer a big boss and anyone could bully him?
Because Yi Zhonghai's voice was loud, even Yan Bugui and others in the front yard were attracted to come and watch.
When Jia Zhang saw everyone watching, she quickly wiped the corners of her mouth. She had just been eating the delicious braised pork, and her mouth was full of oil.
It would not be a good thing if someone saw it.
Yan Bugui hid behind the crowd and grumbled with glee: "Hey, everyone, look, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang are quarreling again!"
"Who in the courtyard doesn't know how mean Jia Zhang is!"
"Although Yi Zhonghai is no longer the boss of our courtyard, he may not be able to defeat Jia Zhang, who is full of foul language, in a quarrel."
The three aunts standing by looked at the quarreling couple and whispered, "Old Yan, why do I feel that Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu are so close? It's unusual! It makes me wonder if they have some unclear relationship between a man and a woman!"
Yan Bugui looked around and found that no one was paying attention to the private conversation between the old couple, so he lowered his voice and continued: "Don't spread this. No matter what the final result is, spreading rumors is not a good thing for us."
"Let's just be the audience and stop worrying about it."
Yan Bugui thought to himself that life nowadays was too ordinary. He was either at work or at home growing flowers. Life was really boring.
And now, such interesting farces are happening frequently, and there is finally something to watch.
Seeing that Jia Zhang was unwilling to continue bickering with Yi Zhonghai in public, Qin Huairu took this opportunity and went to the deaf old lady's house in the backyard with some pride. She was also looking forward to enjoying a rich meal.
She has been eating coarse grains lately, and she really needs to try some delicacies and eat more nutritious dishes, not only for herself, but also for the baby in her belly.
Seeing that the dispute between Jia Zhang and Yi Zhonghai had finally settled, the people who were watching the excitement dispersed with little interest.
Yan Bugui turned back to the front yard and was about to go to work at school when his son Yan Jiecheng came over and said, "Dad, I don't plan to be a temporary worker at the Military Control Office anymore."
"Last time you asked me to find He Yuzhu and ask him to introduce me to the steel mill. Have you made any progress?"
Yan Jiecheng gradually discovered that although working in the Military Control Office sounded respectable, his treatment was too poor for a temporary employee like him.
After hearing what his son said, Yan Bugui adjusted the frame of his glasses and his expression turned angry: "He Yuzhu is an ungrateful person. He is an ungrateful guy!"
"Before your case, I promised He Yuzhu a lot of benefits."
"But instead of agreeing, he just laughed at me."
"After He Yuzhu moved out of the courtyard, he became completely devoid of human touch!"
When he heard that his hope of working in the steel mill was gone, Yan Jiecheng also thought that it was all He Yuzhu's fault.
His eyes were full of resentment, and he said angrily: "This He Yuzhu is simply an ungrateful villain. It's a waste to marry a beautiful woman like Xu Huizhen. I should marry Xu Huizhen."
"How can He Yuzhu, with his ugly appearance, be worthy of Xu Huizhen?"
Yan Jiecheng was still not satisfied after he finished speaking. He spat on the ground and then nodded with satisfaction.
The third auntie couldn't help but complain, "He Yuzhu is really a nobody now. We used to live in the same courtyard, but he didn't even help us when we were in trouble. What's the point of his current glory!"
Yan Bugui saw that his family members were talking about He Yuzhu and shook his head: "Don't worry about it."
"This guy is so ungrateful. I have my own countermeasures. I will definitely teach him a lesson later."
Having said that, he went straight to school to work.
Xu family in the middle courtyard of the quadrangle.
The family was eating at the dining table, and Jia Zhang's scream just now also attracted Xu Damao's attention.
He wanted to run out to see the excitement, but was stopped by his father Xu Fugui.
Logically speaking, given Xu Fugui's current position in the courtyard and as a mediator appointed by the Military Control Office, he should have been the first one to mediate the disputes among the neighbors in the courtyard.
But he was careful and realized that Yi Zhonghai was once the boss of the courtyard, and Jia Zhang was notoriously sarcastic and mean, and both of them were not easy to deal with.
If he intervenes to mediate at this time, isn't he asking for trouble?
He didn't want to take on the role of the boss of this courtyard, he just wanted to be free and avoid unnecessary trouble.
At this moment, Xu Damao, who was immersed in the power of a great man as a mediator and entertaining himself, slowly spoke out his opinion on this: "Dad, the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were taken away by the police. Was it He Yuzhu who ordered this? Is he too cruel? Isn't it because Liu Haizhong wrongly accused him of being an enemy spy! Or is it because Liu Guangqi offended his wife? Does he want to kill the Liu family? You see, the Liu family is already in a critical situation. This time, the Liu family is afraid that they will face a catastrophe."
