Jia Dongxu subconsciously looked towards the door, and after just one glance, his vision went black and he almost fainted.
He felt like his eyes were going blind; he couldn't comprehend this absurd scene at all.
"Tsk... God, that's really blinding."
"What are you talking about, Jia Zhangshi, the 'Foolish Zhu Tu'? Are you referring to her fat body?"
"If you ask me, I'm afraid they developed feelings for each other through all the fighting and bickering... Sigh, even the reasoning in my heart is starting to crumble."
"Although everyone has their own preferences when it comes to radishes and vegetables, I really can't imagine anyone being able to bring themselves to eat this old radish from Jia Zhang's family."
A buzzing sound arose all around.
Even Xu Damao was at a loss for words at this moment—if Sha Zhu could really be so shameless, he wouldn't know how to mock him.
Sha Zhu and Jia Zhangshi were certainly aware of the strange looks around them, but they didn't care at all and acted as if they were doing whatever they wanted.
In their view, as long as they are happy, that's all that matters; other people's opinions are not worth mentioning.
"mom--!"
Just then, a scream suddenly rang out.
Jia Dongxu could no longer hold back.
The scene before him made him lose face, especially when he glared at Sha Zhu, his eyes practically spitting fire.
In his mind, Sha Zhu was not even human.
They stole his wife first, and now they're even trying to steal his mother.
What on earth is this beast trying to do?!
Jia Zhangshi's kick came out of nowhere, sending the stick rolling to the side.
Before the people in the courtyard could recover from their shock, they heard her shout in a shrill voice, "What are you all standing there for? Call him! Call him Grandpa!"
Not to mention Jia Dongxu, even Bang Geng next to him was stunned at this moment.
He had heard all the gossip from the neighbors, and a burning anger was brewing in his heart.
The child was narrow-minded to begin with, and secretly plotted to teach these gossipy fellows a lesson when his grandmother returned. After all that had happened, he knew he was weak and that taking rash action would only lead to his own downfall.
But when he saw Sha Zhu and Jia Zhangshi holding hands in front of him, he froze.
It was as if something had struck his tender heart hard, leaving him feeling dull and dazed with pain.
He really couldn't understand what was going on.
"Mom! What...what are you doing? Let go!"
Jia Dongxu roared until his throat was hoarse, his eyes fixed on Jia Zhangshi, almost spitting fire.
Normally, Jia Dongxu firmly believed that his mother would never disobey him and would definitely let go as she said.
But today was different—as soon as he finished speaking, Madam Jia glanced at him sideways, too lazy to pay any attention, and instead turned her head and softened her voice towards Sha Zhu beside her.
"Zhu Zi, don't take it to heart."
It's normal for young children to not understand things immediately.
Don't worry, I'll talk to Dongxu properly.
Madam Jia spoke hurriedly, her tone unusually gentle, revealing a wifely tenderness that was completely different from her usual shrewish and cunning self.
Seeing her change like this, Liu Haizhong and the others were dumbfounded.
They had known Jia Zhangshi for many years, never imagining that this old woman would show such behavior in front of a junior. What was even more astonishing was that, for the sake of Sha Zhu, she even neglected her most beloved son.
Liu Haizhong rubbed his eyes hard, almost doubting that he was seeing things.
Jia Dongxu was struck dumb, feeling as if his mother had been forcibly taken away by Sha Zhu, and he was filled with panic and hatred.
"Mom, how could you..."
He wanted to say more, but Jia Zhangshi had already frowned, her eyes filled with disgust.
"Dongxu! Say less! Remember this, from now on, Zhuzi is your father, and Banggeng's grandfather."
"You all need to show him some respect, do you hear me?"
Dad? Grandpa?
These ordinary words, when they entered the ears of Jia Dongxu and the people around him, sounded horrifyingly harsh.
Xu Damao and the others, who only had vivid imaginations, blurted out "Grandpa" to Sha Zhu.
The sight of it made me feel awkward all over; it was so absurd it made my scalp tingle.
Sha Zhu chuckled, adopting the amiable demeanor of an elder, and patted Jia Zhangshi's hand: "Little Zhang, you should probably tone down your temper."
It's normal for children to have trouble accepting things as they grow up.
There's still a long way to go, let's take it slow, they'll understand eventually.
Hearing him address him as "Little Zhang" in such a gentle tone sent chills down Xu Damao and the others' spines, making their hair stand on end with disgust.
The ones who couldn't stand it the most were naturally Jia Dongxu and Bang Geng.
In the eyes of the father and son, Sha Zhu's behavior was clearly a deliberate attempt to humiliate and take advantage of the situation.
"You idiot Zhu! What kind of sorcery did you use on my mother? I'll fight you to the death!"
Jia Dongxu screamed and pushed the wheelchair with both hands, lunging at Sha Zhu together with Bang Geng, even opening his mouth as if to bite, like a mad dog.
Yi Zhonghai and the others watched from the sidelines, and they understood somewhat – if such an absurd thing happened to them, they would probably go crazy too.
"Snapped!"
A sharp slap suddenly rang out.
No one expected this to happen.
Just as Jia Dongxu and Banggeng were about to attack Shazhu, Jia Zhangshi suddenly rushed out.
As if protecting her most precious treasure, she rushed up to Jia Dongxu and his son and slapped them hard across the face.
Jia Dongxu was completely stunned, never expecting his mother to do this to him.
The slap was extremely powerful; he cried out in pain and fell to the ground, wheelchair and all.
Bang Geng wasn't spared either—seeing that he still wanted to push and kick Sha Zhu, Jia Zhangshi didn't hesitate and kicked him hard.
Banggeng screamed and rolled a long way like a ball.
The courtyard fell silent instantly.
Even Xu Damao, who always loves to join in the fun, stared wide-eyed and stood there dumbfounded.
To everyone present, the scene before them was so horrific that it was terrifying.
"Jia Dongxu! What's wrong with you guys?!"
Madam Jia Zhang burst into a tirade, her eyes bloodshot, "I'll say it one more time, from now on, Sha Zhu is your elder! Anyone who dares to touch him again, I'll fight them to the death!"
She was panting heavily, her eyes were bloodshot, and she glared at her son and grandson with a fierce look that seemed to want to devour them alive.
The pheasant that had been howling just moments before was so frightened that it immediately fell silent and cowered on the ground, too afraid to move.
Jia Dongxu, however, remained defiant, lying beside his wheelchair and hurling insults incessantly, his voice sharp and grating.
Jia Zhangshi showed no mercy, pounced on him and beat him until he completely shut up and gave in.
"This...this is outrageous..."
The deaf old lady stood aside, staring in disbelief.
The play before her eyes completely overturned her understanding of things that she had developed over most of her life.
Yi Zhonghai frowned deeply and subconsciously turned to Liu Haizhong: "Old Liu, what do you think we should do about this?"
This question hit the nail on the head—even the once-proud "Uncle Liu" was now smitten.
Even Yi Zhonghai, who holds a high position, came to ask for his opinion. Doesn't that mean that he is the one in charge of the academy now?
Liu Haizhong immediately adopted a stern posture, put his hands behind his back, and said with a straight face, "This matter must be dealt with seriously! If this continues, our entire courtyard will lose face!"
Yan Bugui nodded quickly.
He didn't want to get involved in such a mess, but if the hospital's reputation was ruined and he failed to be recognized as an advanced worker this year, his own interests would also be harmed.
More importantly, such a pairing with such a large age gap is simply shocking these days.
Once the news gets out, everyone in the hospital will probably be pointed at and gossiped about on the street, and their very backbone will be pierced.
"Indecent! They must be separated!"
"If we keep causing trouble, how will we ever be able to hold our heads high again!"
Everyone seemed to wake up from a dream and echoed the sentiment.
Everyone's thoughts were simple: first, separate Sha Zhu and Jia Zhangshi, and lock them each in an empty room.
In their view, this was just a momentary lapse of judgment, and as time went on, their muddled thoughts would naturally fade.
"Anyone who dares to touch my Xiao Zhang! I'll take their life!"
Suddenly, Sha Zhu let out a roar.
Seeing someone trying to pull Jia Zhangshi away, he charged at them like a raging bull.
Sha Zhu was one of the strongest men in the courtyard. At this moment, he unleashed his full power, and four or five young men couldn't stop him. They were all knocked off their feet.
He pulled Jia Zhangshi behind him, then suddenly grabbed a wooden stick from somewhere and swung it around with such force that no one dared to approach.
The scene immediately descended into chaos.
Although everyone wanted to subdue Sha Zhu, seeing his desperate stance, no one could step forward to break the deadlock.
The group and Sha Zhu were locked in a stalemate.
With such a commotion outside, Hao Jianguo and Yu Li naturally heard it too.
Even Hao Jianguo was stunned when he learned about Sha Zhu and Jia Zhangshi's affair.
He never expected that "matchmaking charm".
It has such power that it could bring Sha Zhu and Jia Zhangshi to this point.
Judging from their expressions, it seemed as if they would only separate if the mountains collapsed and the earth split open.
The momentum.
Yu Li frowned.
She found this absurd thing unacceptable—it was simply immoral.
"Has Sha Zhu gone mad?"
She only managed to utter this one sentence in the end.
In the past, Sha Zhu always liked to compete with Hao Jianguo. In Yu Li's opinion, even if she didn't have to be picky about how beautiful a wife was, she should at least be decent-looking.
Although Qin Huairu's reputation was ruined, her appearance was still passable.
But Jia Zhangshi...
Yu Li really couldn't understand what Sha Zhu saw in her.
Yu Li subconsciously turned to look at her husband.
She suddenly felt that, apart from her husband, everyone else in the courtyard was a little mentally unstable.
Hao Jianguo smiled and shook his head: "This courtyard will be even more lively in the future."
You won't be bored after marrying into this family; there will be something to watch every day.
Yu Li was taken aback, then couldn't help but burst out laughing.
She suddenly realized that her husband was truly "bad".
of.
But this kind of badness, ironically, made her happy.
Just as Yu Li was feeling a sweet warmth in her heart, a furious roar suddenly rang out—
It's Sha Zhu.
In the chaos just now, someone attacked him and took the stick from his hand.
Even unarmed, Sha Zhu was like a tiger unleashed from its cage, charging around relentlessly and unstoppable.
After struggling for a long time, they still couldn't subdue him and had to retreat, panting heavily, looking at each other, not knowing what to do.
Sha Zhu glared at the crowd and roared, "You think you can stop me? Yi Zhonghai, are you determined to ruin my engagement? Think it through! If you really want to break ties with me, who will take care of you in your old age?"
Although Sha Zhu seemed to be insane at this moment, he was actually unusually clear-headed.
He had long known about Yi Zhonghai's plans, but he had simply been unwilling to expose them before.
These words sent shivers down Yi Zhonghai's spine, but also made him feel a sense of apprehension.
Sha Zhu turned his head to look at Jia Zhangshi behind him.
As Jia Zhangshi gazed at him, her eyes almost sparkled with admiration—the fierce courage that Sha Zhu had displayed earlier had made her aged heart pound wildly.
In her opinion, Sha Zhu was the most remarkable person in the courtyard.
"Silly Zhu, you're amazing..."
Madam Jia murmured softly, a dark red hue emanating from her wrinkles.
These words pleased Sha Zhu greatly.
He threw his head back and laughed loudly: "Tonight I'm going to share a room with Xiao Zhang, and tomorrow we'll get our marriage certificate! Nobody can stop me! You all know what kind of temper I, Sha Zhu, have. If you piss me off, I'll come after you all, house to house, and see if you can handle it!"
Sha Zhu wasn't really stupid; he knew what everyone was afraid of, and his threats were piercing to the heart.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, everyone present became serious, and no one dared to step forward.
After all, Sha Zhu has always been a notorious troublemaker in the courtyard. If he really goes crazy in the future, who can stop him?
In the end, you're the one who suffers.
"This is insane... What a terrible thing!"
Someone stamped their feet and lamented.
The deaf old woman stood shakily, leaning on her cane, muttering to herself, her eyes practically spitting fire as she looked at Sha Zhu.
If it were anyone else in this courtyard, she would have a thousand ways to deal with them, but these methods were like punching cotton, making no sound at all when they hit Sha Zhu.
Sha Zhu completely ignored the old lady, instead reaching out and grabbing Jia Zhangshi's rough hand, making it seem as if he wanted to spend his life with her.
Qin Huairu watched from the side, her vision blurred, and she almost fainted.
She never expected that the silly Zhu who used to fawn over her would turn his attention to Jia Zhangshi.
"Silly Zhu! Have you... have you ever considered my situation?"
Qin Huairu screamed hoarsely, feeling the world spinning around her, "You clearly promised me that you would marry me as long as I got a divorce! Now you're entangled with Jia Zhangshi, how am I supposed to stand in this courtyard, how am I supposed to live!"
She was clearly going all out; her shouts were heard clearly throughout the entire courtyard.
After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence, followed by murmurs of discussion.
Everyone then realized that there was a reason behind Qin Huairu's determination to separate from Jia Dongxu.
