"Brother Da Mao, look, my house is being renovated today! There's no way I can cook this meal."

"How about I buy some groceries and bring them to your house to cook? I hope your wife won't mind?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao's eyes widened as he replied, "She dares to mind! You're coming over tonight, and I'm in charge here!"

Su Ting nodded repeatedly in agreement, then bid farewell to Xu Damao and found a guesthouse to book a room.

After resting on the bed for a while, and estimating that it was about time, I left the guesthouse.

I found a secluded spot, spent 5 mood points to buy some food, and then carried the food towards the courtyard house.

As soon as I stepped into the front gate of the courtyard house, I ran into Yan Bugui, who was guarding the gate.

He spotted the chicken and meat Su Ting was carrying and immediately picked up a watering can to greet him.

"Oh my, Su Ting, look how much food you bought today! What's the occasion?"

Are you renovating your house and don't even have a place to cook?

How about this? Come to Uncle San's house, let your Aunt San cook, and tonight we'll have a good drink together, just the two of us."

Su Ting was quite annoyed. Although he knew that Yan Laoxi was a good person, his way of doing things was really unbearable for him.

It's not appropriate to directly confront him; it seems we have to use his methods, his methods of dealing with him.

"Uncle, didn't you have enough to drink last night?"

I remember you were all crying and saying you couldn't drink anymore, and it's only been a day, and you've already forgotten?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui hurriedly waved his hands in denial.

"Hey! I wasn't in good shape last night, how about we have another drinking contest tonight?"

Su Ting pointed to the dishes in his hand and replied, "Third Uncle, don't worry about today's dishes."

There was a misunderstanding between me and Brother Da Mao, so I came here specifically to cook for him and make amends.

We had already made plans to go to their house, and I can't go back on my word!

Oh my, the flowers you planted are so beautiful!

Oh? You just said you wanted to give me two pots as a return gift because of the food and drinks last night? I'm so embarrassed!

But since you've asked, I can't very well refuse. Thank you, Uncle San.

After saying that, Su Ting ignored Yan Bugui's obstruction, picked up the two most beautiful pots of flowers, and ran away.

Yan Bugui was stunned, wondering when he had ever said he would send flowers to Su Ting.

By the time they realized what was happening and tried to stop him, Su Ting had already rushed into the central courtyard.

Hearing Su Ting's voice, the people in the front yard all came out to see what had happened.

They were astonished that Yan Laoxi, who was usually so stingy, was actually willing to give things away; it was as if the sun had risen in the west.

At that moment, Yan Bugui noticed that everyone's eyes were focused on him.

In addition, Su Ting had just loudly announced that these two pots of flowers were a return gift from dinner last night.

As the third oldest man in the courtyard, he still needed to save face.

So he immediately explained to everyone, "Hey, didn't I eat Su Ting's cooking last night?"

As the elder in this courtyard, how can I enjoy the younger generation's things for free?

Since he likes these flowers, I, as his uncle, will give him two pots as a gift.

Yan Bugui put on a generous and magnanimous appearance. Seeing everyone nodding and praising the Third Uncle for his good manners, he returned home with a big smile.

However, as soon as he entered the door, he started stomping his feet and banging on the table in anger.

Those flowers were his precious treasures, the two best pots, which he had carefully tended for a long time, but today that rascal Su Ting took them away.

With so many people watching in the courtyard, Yan Bugui couldn't bring himself to ask Su Ting for it back.

The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became, and he even lost the will to do his job as a guard at the gate.

At this moment, Su Ting had already arrived at the central courtyard carrying two pots of flowers.

In the courtyard, the young widow Qin Huairu was washing clothes, while Jia Zhangshi sat at the door sewing shoe soles.

They were both surprised to see Su Ting carrying vegetables in one hand and two pots of flowers in the other.

Qin Huairu glanced at Su Ting, silently giving him 2 points of emotional value, without saying a word.

Instead, Jia Zhangshi gave Su Ting 3 emotion points while getting up and walking towards him, smiling as she spoke.

"Oh, you must be Su Ting from the front yard who just moved in? Are you here to visit us, a widow and her orphan?"

You're too kind. I, Aunt Jia, will accept these dishes.

"Those who have served in the military are definitely different; they have such good character!"

Su Ting was somewhat bewildered by this series of actions.

What's wrong with these people? Not one of them is normal; everyone is trying to get something out of themselves.

Looking at the fat face in front of him, Su Ting felt nauseous.

Su Ting had absolutely no liking for Jia Zhangshi.

I was so scared last night that I didn't even have time to confront her!

Instead, she's now taking the initiative to come over, so don't blame me for being impolite.

Su Ting avoided Jia Zhangshi's outstretched hand and said.

"Who are you? Do I know you? Why are you trying to steal my things right away?"

Let me tell you, doing this is illegal, understand?

What about your child? Do you realize what a terrible example you're setting for your child by doing this?

Besides, judging by your size, the food at home must be really good! I think you're the fattest person in the whole yard.

You should lose some weight. Being overweight can make older people more susceptible to illness. It's best to go to the hospital for a checkup.

Upon hearing these words, Madam Jia became furious, feeling that Su Ting was hitting her sore spot.

Her husband and children have long since passed away, and now they're saying she's fat and sick.

She slapped her thigh and cried out, "You little bastard, how could you bully people like this!"

Help! This new guy is bullying us, a widow and her child! Come quick!

Dongxu! Lao Jia! You left so early, leaving me here in the yard to be bullied with no one to care...

Chapter Sixteen: Rest Assured

When Qin Huairu saw her mother-in-law throwing a tantrum at Su Ting, she panicked and quickly put down the clothes in her hands, trying to pull Jia Zhangshi away.

However, Jia Zhangshi ignored the advice and became even more arrogant, shoving Qin Huairu aside and cursing loudly.

"You useless thing, it was because of you, this jinx, that Dongxu died."

Now that I'm being bullied, you not only don't help me, but you also join in with outsiders to bully me.

Why is my life so miserable!

Seeing Qin Huairu silenced by the insults, Jia Zhangshi became even more arrogant, pointing at Su Ting and yelling, "You little beast..."

Suddenly, "Slap! Slap!" Two slaps landed across the face.

When Su Ting saw that Jia Zhangshi dared to point at him and curse him, he didn't hesitate to slap her twice more.

Jia Zhangshi was completely stunned by the beating. She had never been treated like this before, and she burst into tears and started cursing again.

"Crack! Crack!"

"you!"

"Crack! Crack!"

"I!"

"Slap! Slap!"...

Jia Zhangshi's emotional value instantly soared to +559.

Su Ting wasn't buying it. Since she dared to insult him, he would respond in his own way and slap her.

If she dares to utter a single word, I'll slap her twice.

Since he had already started hitting her, Su Ting was determined to scare her once and for all.

To deal with someone like Jia Zhangshi, you have to make her fear you.

Otherwise, she'll keep causing trouble for herself. After all, a toad lying on your foot, even if it doesn't bite, is still annoying, isn't it?

At this moment, the residents in the surrounding houses heard the commotion and came out to see what was going on.

One of the elderly men living in the Intermediate People's Court had actually been quietly observing the situation from his home.

However, given Su Ting's special status and the fact that he had eaten with him yesterday, he felt obligated to get involved, so he didn't want to interfere.

But now that Su Ting has assaulted someone, and the neighbors have all come out, it would be unreasonable for this old man not to step in and mediate.
