Siheyuan: Hang Jia Dongxu, smash Banggeng to death!

Chapter 7 Yi Zhonghai Slaps Jia Zhangshi

"Yi Zhonghai, what do you mean?"

Madam Jia suddenly raised her head, her triangular eyes wide with shock. "You even vomited? Is it because you think my son is dead and no one will take care of you in your old age, that you're disgusted with my son?"

Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to explain, the nausea returned: "Ugh—no… Sister-in-law, listen to me…"

"I don't care what you're saying."

Jia Zhangshi completely erupted.

My son was sleeping soundly on the kang (a heated brick bed) last night, but this morning he was found hanged from a crooked tree.

This blow made her already fiery temper even more out of control.

Yi Zhonghai wants to break away from the Jia family.

"Yi Zhonghai, you old bastard."

Jia Zhangshi pointed at Yi Zhonghai's nose and cursed, "What did you promise Old Jia back then? Now that my son is dead, this is the kind of face you show?"

"Let me tell you, Dongxu was killed by you. You forced him to occupy the Lin family's house, and his conscience wouldn't allow it, so he hanged himself."

That's a malicious and unreasonable statement.

Yi Zhonghai's expression changed: "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about?"

This good-for-nothing fool, who's good at nothing but causing trouble, how can he say this out loud?

"I'm talking nonsense? My son was fine yesterday, and he died today. If it wasn't you who killed him, who else could it be?"

Lin Tian was clearly dead at birth, yet you brought him back. If you hadn't brought him back, my son Dongxu wouldn't have died.

As Jia Zhangshi spoke, she became more and more agitated. Suddenly, she lunged forward and grabbed at Yi Zhonghai's face with both hands.

"I'll fight you to the death! Give me back my son!"

Yi Zhonghai was completely unprepared for Jia Zhangshi's sudden attack, and before he could react, several bloody marks appeared on his face.

"what!"

Yi Zhonghai cried out in pain, covered his face, and backed away.

The pain made him lose his mind instantly.

He's been a big shot all these years, the one who has the final say in the courtyard. When has anyone ever scratched his face like this?

"Jia Zhangshi, how dare you!!"

Yi Zhonghai roared and slapped him across the face.

"Snapped!"

The crisp sound of a slap echoed throughout the courtyard.

Jia Zhangshi was stunned by the blow, covering her face and looking at Yi Zhonghai in disbelief: "You...you dare to hit me?"

How dare that dead child hit me?

Just because Dongxu died?

Everyone in the courtyard was stunned.

Yi Zhonghai has always been known for his reasoned approach in the hospital. When has he ever resorted to violence?

"So what if I hit you?"

Yi Zhonghai covered his face, blood seeping from between his fingers, his eyes fierce. "Do you really think I'm easy to mess with?"

"Jia Dongxu is dead, and I've lost my caregiver. Why should I put up with you?"

He approached Jia Zhangshi step by step, his voice low but clear: "Old hag, do you know? I've been putting up with you for years."

Do you really think I don't know you often talk badly about me behind my back?

They say I have no descendants, that I have no one to support me in my old age, that I'm a hypocrite... I know it all.

Jia Zhangshi was startled by Yi Zhonghai's gaze and took a step back, stammering, "You...you..."

"What do you mean, 'you'?"

Yi Zhonghai sneered, "I used to let you have your way because your son was filial and could take care of me in my old age. Now that your son is dead."

You still dare to act like a jerk in front of me?

"Let me tell you, from today onwards, I, Yi Zhonghai, am no longer involved in the affairs of your Jia family. Take it or leave it!"

These words were so heartless that they caused an uproar in the courtyard.

Qin Huairu's face turned deathly pale, and she quickly stepped forward to hug Jia Zhangshi's leg: "Mom! Stop it, Dongxu is dead, the dead can't be brought back to life, please don't do this..."

She knew in her heart that if she really offended Yi Zhonghai to death, the Jia family would have a hard time in the courtyard in the future.

She's still hoping Yi Zhonghai will speak on her behalf and help her take over Dongxu's job at the steel rolling mill.

But Madam Jia was in a fit of anger and wouldn't listen to anything.

"Get out of here!"

Jia Zhangshi kicked Qin Huairu away with such force that Qin Huairu staggered.

"You traitor! Your husband is dead, and instead of seeking justice for him, you're stopping me?"

Qin Huairu felt a pain in her lower abdomen from the kick, and tears welled up in her eyes, but she dared not say anything.

Sha Zhu hugged Qin Huairu tightly and said, "Sister Qin, are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere? Let me rub it for you."

As he spoke, he reached out and touched Qin Huairu's stomach.

"You dare, Sha Zhu! Do you believe I'll fight you to the death? Qin Huairu, you shameless hussy, stay away from Sha Zhu."

"Okay, Mom."

Qin Huairu endured the pain and broke free from Sha Zhu's embrace.

Sha Zhu was slightly disappointed. Sister Qin's buttocks were so soft. That damned old hag.

Why didn't she die with Jia Dongxu, my dear Sister Qin?

Jia Zhangshi snorted coldly and was about to pounce on Yi Zhonghai again, but Yi Zhonghai had already taken a few steps back and was looking at her coldly.

"Yi Zhonghai, I'll fight you to the death!"

Jia Zhangshi screamed and tried to rush forward again.

Yan Bugui couldn't stand it any longer and stepped forward to persuade her, "Jia Zhangshi, calm down, Lao Yi, he..."

"Shut up!"

Jia Zhangshi turned her head and roared angrily, spitting all over Yan Bugui's face.

Yan Bugui's face turned ugly. He wiped his face, took two steps back, and remained silent.

I don't care if the Jia family lives or dies; it would be better if they did, because the house would all be mine.

Seeing that no one was stopping her, Jia Zhangshi suddenly sat down on the ground, slapping her thighs and wailing as if trying to summon the spirit:

"My son! My Dongxu! You died so tragically! Old Jia! You heartless bastard."

"If you have a spirit in heaven, please take away the murderer who killed my son, and take away all those who bullied us, a widow and orphan."

Even those who wanted to offer advice were too lazy to do so.

Anyway, it's not like it's one of our own family members who died, so let you wail all you want.

As Jia Zhangshi cried, she realized that not only did no one come to comfort her, but some people were even leaving. Her anger flared up instantly.

She scrambled to her feet, pointing at the crowd: "Don't you have any compassion? My son is dead, dead, and none of you can even offer a word of comfort to your old mother? Huh?"

Nobody paid any attention to her.

Madam Jia was so angry that she trembled all over, her eyes darting around. Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Lin Tian.

The corners of his mouth seemed to be slightly upturned?

Is he laughing?

My son is dead, and he's laughing?

"Little beast!"

Madam Jia screamed, her voice shrill and piercing, "What are you laughing at? Are you happy that my son is dead? And you still say you didn't kill him?"

She seemed to have found an outlet, directing all her anger, sadness, and hatred at Lin Tian.

"It's you, it must be you! You jinx who killed your parents, and now you're bringing misfortune on my son! I'll fight you to the death! I'll make you pay with your life for my son!"

Jia Zhangshi jumped up from the ground; surprisingly, despite her plumpness, she was quite agile.

He pounced on Lin Tian.

This was something no one expected.

Or rather, someone anticipated it but didn't stop it.

Yi Zhonghai covered his face, stood aside grimacing, and sneered inwardly: Go ahead and hit him, it would be good to beat that little beast to death.

hiss~~

That old hag is really ruthless; she used to feed the dogs all the food she gave them.

Liu Haizhong held a teacup, squinting as he watched the show.

He was calculating in his mind: If Lin Tian dies, and Jia Zhangshi kills someone and sends them to jail, what will happen to the Lin family and the Jia family's house...

Given Yi Zhonghai's current state, he certainly doesn't have the mind to care.

At that time...

Yan Bugui pushed up his glasses and started doing the math: the Lin family had three rooms, the Jia family had one, the Liu family had one, and his own family had one.

If Lin Tian dies, that little brat Tangtang will be easy to deal with...

Some of the other people in the courtyard turned their faces away, some pretended not to see, and some even quietly stepped back to make way for Jia Zhangshi.

No one wanted to save Lin Tian.

A child who has caused the deaths of his parents will suffer even in life.

Even if he dies, everyone can still share his family's house.

How good.

Besides the three rooms in the backyard, the Lin family also has a side room where the siblings currently live.

Lin Tian looked at Jia Zhangshi rushing towards him, his face expressionless, he simply turned slightly to the side and took a step to the side.

Just as Jia Zhangshi's shadow reached out to Lin Tian, she suddenly felt her foot stumble.

It felt like something tugged at her foot.

"what!"

Jia Zhangshi screamed, lost her balance, and fell face down to the ground.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud.
