He thought about reporting the case to the police, but after thinking it over, he didn't dare to take action.
Because he knew that these were all his own speculations and there was no evidence at all.
He would not be able to do anything to Yang Chong and would instead expose himself.
By then, maybe I would die unclearly like Jia Dongxu.
Therefore, he did not dare to get angry when Yang Chong choked him. Instead, he turned around and scolded Jia Zhang: "Zhang Cuihua, change your mouth in the future! If you don't change, you will be beaten later."
He waved his hand and said, "Okay, everyone go away."
Everyone was stunned.
Let’s go home, shall we?
What does that mean? Does this mean that today's matter is over?
This is not like an old man's style at all!
Normally, when an uncle encounters something wrong with the Jia family, doesn't he always stand up and support the Jia family?
What happened today? Yang Chong slapped Jia Zhang in the face in front of him, and he just let it go?
Jia Zhang couldn't believe her ears and looked at Yi Zhonghai in shock: "Yi Zhonghai? What did you say? Disband? Then I got beaten for nothing? How can you be a great master? You should support me and avenge me."
Yi Zhonghai thought: Why am I still supporting you? Am I tired of living and looking for death?
I don’t want to be like your son Jia Dongxu!
So he said with a straight face: "Why should I support you? You just said it, you were the one who scolded the rain for no reason, you deserved to be beaten!"
Chapter 110 Jia Zhang's Ideological Work
Yi Zhonghai said: "Okay, let's end this matter here. Don't make trouble again in the future. Watch your mouth. When you are old, you should act like an old man. Don't curse people at every turn, otherwise you will be beaten later."
After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, everyone go home and eat, don't watch the fun."
After saying this, he left Jia Zhang behind and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Jia Zhang was stunned for a long time before she finally reacted and sat down on the ground again: "Old Jia! Open your eyes and take a look. Everyone in this courtyard bullies your wife and grandson and no one cares! Dongxu, look at what kind of master you found. You team up with outsiders to bully your mother and wife. Even when you are alive, you still want to take care of him in his old age. Such a person deserves to have no descendants..."
Yi Zhonghai, who had not yet reached his room, twitched his lips and turned pale when he heard this, but he did not stop and went straight back to the room.
But I was cursing like a bastard in my heart.
No one in the courtyard expected that Yi Zhonghai would leave as he said he would, and he would actually leave Jia Zhang behind and go away by himself. After a few words, everyone dispersed.
There’s nothing fun to watch, so I might as well go home and cook.
It’s New Year’s Day and I see people getting beaten.
I still feel quite comfortable.
Yang Xiaojuan also took He Yushui, whose eyes were red, home to comfort her good friend.
Only Jia Zhang, who was sitting on the ground and howling, and Sha Zhu, who was looking embarrassed, were left standing there, at a loss as to what to do.
Yang Chong walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Zhuzi, be more careful, Yu Shui is your sister, even if you break her bones, she still has tendons!"
Sha Zhu nodded: "I know, Chongzi, I know everything, but I just... I just can't control myself."
Yang Chong shook his head: "Take care of yourself, don't ruin your life."
Back in the house, Yu Shui cried like a tearful person: "I don't want this brother anymore. He secretly took things out of the house for a widow and beat me. Is there any brother like this?"
Yang Xiaojuan comforted him: "It's okay, Yushui, if you don't want a brother like this, then don't do it. We still have Brother Chongzi. Brother Chongzi will protect you. No one can bully us."
Yu Xiu sneered at her, "Silly girl, how can you persuade others like that?" Then she said to Yu Shui, "Yu Shui, think about it. Your brother is actually a good person. I heard from your brother Chongzi that brother Zhuzi treated you very kindly. He supported the family when he was a teenager and brought you up. He is just being deceived by others. When he understands it one day, he will still be your brother."
Yu Shui pouted, "Sister-in-law, I don't know what has possessed my silly brother to fall in love with Qin Huairu. Everyone can see that Qin Huairu is just after his lunch box and his money. How come he doesn't learn his lesson?"
Yu Xiu said: "It's okay, let you talk to Brother Chongzi about it tomorrow, he will definitely understand."
Yang Chong walked into the house. Yu Shui looked up and saw him, so she ran over and threw herself into his arms: "Brother Chongzi, I don't want that stupid brother anymore. You are my real brother. You can stand up and support me when others bully me and help me vent my anger."
Yang Chong stroked her hair and said, "You have been my biological sister for a long time, silly girl, don't think too much, be happy, the New Year is coming soon, let's be happy."
Sha Zhu also went back to the house, leaving Jia Zhang alone in the yard.
Seeing that no one took her seriously, Jia Zhang lost the motivation to continue her performance. She slowly got up from the ground and slipped back to her room.
When he returned to the house, he suddenly remembered that the piece of meat was still on the ground. He quickly slipped out, picked up the meat, and went back again.
He was so angry that he found a way to vent his anger when he returned to the house and saw Qin Huairu.
"Qin Huairu! What are you doing in the house? I just stood up for you and got beaten up, but you are hiding in the house and refusing to come out, leaving me to fight in the front alone?" Jia Zhang said angrily.
In the past, Qin Huairu had always swallowed her anger and had to endure scolding, but today she directly confronted him: "Mom, tell me honestly, are you standing up for me? You are afraid that you won't be able to eat that piece of meat. Besides, if you hadn't made me think about getting close to Sha Zhu all day and trying to coax him, would this have happened today? Would I still be able to go out? Didn't you hear that people in the courtyard are saying that I, a widow, am pestering a bachelor? For you to eat a piece of meat, my spine is almost broken. I have thought about it. If you want to eat meat in the future, you can ask for it yourself. I can't afford to lose face like this."
Then he stood up and walked to the kitchen.
Jia Zhang was stunned. She didn't expect that she was bullied and beaten outside, and then she was talked back to when she returned home.
The little authority he had seemed to be slipping away.
After a moment of silence, Jia Zhang stood up and walked to the kitchen door, forcing a smile on her face: "Huai Ru, isn't this all for this family, for you?"
Qin Huairu thought to herself, "How come it's me again? Did I eat a piece of that meat? Didn't it all end up in your and Banggeng's mouths?"
Jia Zhang continued, "Look, since Dongxu died, this family has been all yours. You're pregnant, you have to take care of Xiaodang, and you have to cook and wash clothes. Not to mention all that, the key is that we have a whole family, and we only have the ten yuan subsidy from the factory every month. It's impossible to take care of it, right?"
Qin Huairu thought: "It was just ten dollars, and you deducted three dollars from me."
"Also, it's fine for us to eat bran and drink porridge, but can we let Banggeng eat bran and drink porridge as well? Our Banggeng is still growing up, and the Jia family will depend on him to be the pillar in the future. How can it be okay if we don't let him eat well and grow well?" Jia Zhang said confidently.
Bang Geng, who was standing by, heard this and quickly said, "Grandma, Mom, I want to eat meat. They all say I've lost weight these days."
Jia Zhang said, "Did you hear that? You are the child's mother, can you watch your child become skinny without meat? As the saying goes, no matter how hard life is, you can't let your child suffer. It doesn't matter if we are tired, endure a little hardship, and get scolded a little. The most important thing is to make sure the child eats well, drinks well, and grows up healthy."
"Isn't it just a few scoldings and some gossips behind my back? It's not like we'll lose any money."
"There's still a long time to go. It's not easy for two women like us to raise three children. Especially now that Banggeng is still young and the little one hasn't been born yet, it will be hard for you to raise them all. You might as well take advantage of the fact that you're still young and someone is willing to give you things and money, and coax them more. Otherwise, you'll be exhausted and unable to survive."
Jia Zhang spoke earnestly, but Qin Huairu just lowered her head, kneading the dough, as if thinking about something.
Seeing that she seemed to be persuaded by her words, Jia Zhangshi thought of another thing: "This Yi Zhonghai is too shameless. When our Dongxu was alive, he wanted Dongxu to take care of him in his old age and did everything for us. Now that Dongxu is gone and there is no one to take care of him in his old age, he wants to kick us out? Humph, no way!"
Chapter 111: Wife or Sister Qin
Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief when he returned to the house, and was glad that he had stopped himself in time and not gone further down the path of opposing Yang Chong.
He knew that Jia Zhang must be very dissatisfied with him today, and might even be scolding him at home right now.
But let her curse. It’s better to let her curse a few times than to lose her life.
Although he had no children or grandchildren and didn't know if anyone would bury him after his death, it was still much better than dying an untimely death like Jia Dongxu.
However, the aunt, who didn't know what was going on, found it a little strange. When she returned to the house, she stared at Yi Zhonghai curiously: "Old man, what's wrong with you today? Do you have a fever?" As she said that, she reached out to touch his forehead.
Yi Zhonghai shivered for a moment and said unhappily, "What are you burning with? You're the one with a fever! I'm fine."
"Okay? Then what happened today? Why don't you speak for the Jia family?" said an aunt.
Yi Zhonghai did not answer, but went back and sat down.
The first lady said, "But it's good this way, so you don't have to offend anyone for the Jia family. Didn't you see that when you stopped speaking for the Jia family today, the people in the courtyard looked at you differently."
Yi Zhonghai closed his eyes. The auntie continued to nag: "In the future, just like this, don't speak for Zhang Cuihua anymore. Jia Dongxu is dead anyway, and we don't need to curry favor with them to provide for our retirement. Let others gossip if they want to. It's better than being accused of being unscrupulous."
"Also, I think we shouldn't put so much effort into finding someone to take care of us in our old age. There's no one we can count on. We can't even spend all your salary, and we can't even take care of ourselves in our old age?"
Retirement... These two words were still lingering in Yi Zhonghai's mind, unable to be shaken off.
"How about listening to the deaf old lady's advice and being nice to Sha Zhu, and letting him take care of you in your old age?"
The next day was New Year's Eve. Yang Chong got up early and saw Yan Bugui cleaning the front yard. He was sweeping the yard clean with a broom.
This is a once-in-a-millennium event under normal circumstances. As a teacher, Mr. Yan has never taken the initiative to sweep the yard.
"Uncle, you're so diligent today that you're sweeping the yard?" Yang Chong greeted him.
Yan Bugui stopped and said with a smile: "Don't you want to leave a good impression on Yu Li's family? No matter what, there can be no mistakes this time. Jie Cheng is not a child anymore. Your third aunt and I are looking forward to holding our grandchildren."
Behind him, Yan Jiecheng muttered, "What's the point of sweeping the yard so clean? Just stop hiding the meat."
Yan Bugui's old face turned slightly red, but he still smiled and said, "My child, am I the kind of stingy person? Don't worry, I have already made an agreement with Sha Zhu this time. All the meat will be cooked today, and not even a pound will be left. I must let my in-laws have a good meal!"
Yang Chong smiled and walked away. He still had a lot of things to do this morning.
He first went to find the Zhao brothers, gave them some meat and food for the New Year, and some pig offal and asked them to deliver them to Xu Huizhen's tavern.
I walked around the factory again, and then drove to Steel Plant No. 1. I had to deliver the pork and flour that I had been promised.
Liu Feng had been waiting there for a long time. The director of the factory stood at the factory gate early in the morning with his neck stretched out. The people in the security department found it strange and wondered which leader was coming to inspect the work.
Seeing Yang Chong's car approaching, Liu Feng waved his hands excitedly. Before the car stopped, he hurriedly climbed up by the door: "Brother, you are finally here. I was afraid you would regret not coming."
Yang Chong said, "How is that possible? I will definitely do what I promised." He took the car directly to the cafeteria to be weighed. The people from the Finance Department were waiting there. He settled the bill and paid in cash. In less than thirty minutes, Yang Chong drove away again.
Before leaving, Liu Feng did not forget to talk to Yang Chong privately, naturally asking him to try his best to get some grain and pork for him after the New Year. Yang Chong did not refuse.
Anyway, all these things were obtained from his daily life without paying for them, so he certainly wouldn't push away the money he earned for free.
After ten o'clock, Yu Li and her family finally arrived at the courtyard again.
As soon as he entered the yard, Yu Haitang ran excitedly to Sha Zhu who was busy cooking there: "Brother Zhu, are you busy? Where is Yu Shui, is he home?"
Sha Zhu said quickly: "Haitang is here? Yu Shui is at home, but not in her room, in Xiao Juan's room, which is the room next to Yu Shui's."
"Okay, I'll go play with her later." Yu Haitang said, looking left and right: "Brother Zhuzi, what kind of dishes are you making? Why is there so much meat today?"
Sha Zhu chuckled, "Of course, it must be done. Uncle San not only took a chicken and a rabbit from Yang Chong today, but also bought a large piece of pork. He also said that all the meat must be cooked today, and not a piece can be left over. He must make your family satisfied."
"Really? Then am I in for a treat today? Brother Zhuzi, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go over with my sister first, and then we'll go play with Yu Shui later." Yu Haitang giggled and went to her family.
When she got there, she put her mouth close to Yu's mother's ear and whispered something, and Yu's mother immediately showed a satisfied smile on her face.
Yan Bugui took one look and quickly called out, "My dear relatives, please come in and sit down. Jie Cheng, let Yu Li come in."
The two families chatted and laughed as they entered the house. Liu Haizhong in the backyard passed by Sha Zhu and stretched his neck to take a look: "Oh, this old Yan has invested a lot of money today. It seems that Yan Jiecheng's marriage will be successful today."
As he spoke, he reached out his hand and picked up a piece of half-cooked pork that Sha Zhu had just cut from the plate and put it into his mouth: "Sha Zhu, the young people of your age in the yard, Xu Damao, the eldest son of the old Wang family in the front yard, are all married, and you are the only one left. Lian Chongzi has a wife, and Yan Jiecheng is about to get married, don't you have any ideas?"

Sha Zhu quickly took the plate away and said, "Second uncle, you can talk, but don't touch the meat. This meat is going to be cooked twice. Third uncle has instructed that every piece of meat must be served on the table today. What should I say if he counts and finds one piece missing?"
Liu Haizhong smacked his lips and said, "Tsk, he should be able to tell if a piece of meat is missing. By the way, Shazhu, I heard that Yu Haitang is a classmate of your Yushui?"
Sha Zhu looked at him: "Yes, we are classmates from elementary school. He is two years older than Yu Shui. What's wrong?"
Liu Haizhong said, "She is two years older than Yushui, which means she is the same age as my Guangtian. How about you ask Yushui to help introduce Yu Haitang to my Guangtian?"
Sha Zhu said angrily, "Come on, Second Uncle, how can Haitang be interested in a second-rate guy like your Liu Guangtian?"
Liu Haizhong was so angry that his eyes widened: "Bullshit, you are the second-rate one!" He threw his sleeves in anger and went back to the backyard.
Sha Zhu felt a little disappointed. Yes, all the young people his age in the courtyard were already married, including Xu Damao, the eldest son of Old Wang's family.
Now the younger Yang Chong is married, and Yan Jiecheng is about to get married. Does he really plan to remain single all his life?
Qin Huairu's appearance could not help but appear in front of his eyes again, and he scratched his head: "Do I want a wife, or Sister Qin? It's really a headache."
Just as he was thinking about it, Yang Chong came out from the backyard and asked, "Brother Zhuzi, what are you thinking about?"
Sha Zhu forced a smile: "It's okay."
"Let me tell you something. Today is New Year's Eve. Why don't you come over tonight to celebrate the New Year together? I have ready-made rabbits, pork, pheasants, and some offal. Brother Zhuzi, you are a good cook. Please help me make some so that we can celebrate the New Year together." Yang Chong said, adding, "No matter how close others are, they can't be as close as siblings."
Sha Zhu nodded: "I see, thank you, Chongzi, I know what you mean."
He knew very well that the reason Yang Chong asked them to celebrate the New Year together was simply to help him ease his relationship with Yu Shui.
After what happened yesterday, Yu Shui has ignored him until now, and he knocked on the door for a long time but the door didn't open for him.
