Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

Chapter 252: Jia Dongxu Complains to Yi Zhonghai

In the courtyard, Jia Dongxu and Yi Zhonghai sat down face to face.

"Master."

Jia Dongxu fell to his knees on the ground, hugging Yi Zhonghai's thighs.

"Master, you don't know how hard it is for me as a disciple."

Jia Dongxu burst into tears, his face full of grievance as he recounted the grievances he had suffered over the years. Nine out of ten of these grievances were related to Jia Zhangshi. As a son, he was already very filial.

He supported the family by himself and held on for so many years without sending Jia Zhang, the freeloader, back to the countryside. He can be said to be a real man.

After all, what mother is like Jia Zhangshi, who does nothing but eat and sleep all day, lazy and greedy? The elders in other families all think about working harder to support their children, but only the top-notch old people in the courtyard think about how to get something from their children.

After hearing Jia Dongxu's crying, Yi Zhonghai felt very distressed. This was the child he had watched grow up, but he had no idea that he was under such great pressure.

"Hey, Dongxu, get up quickly."

Yi Zhonghai helped Jia Dongxu up and looked at him with heartache.

"I knew it was stressful for you to support the whole family on your own, but I didn't expect it to be this great. You've suffered so much over the years."

Jia Dongxu shook his head. "Don't be sad, Master. I'm a man, and this is the responsibility I should shoulder. But, my mother...she sighs."

Jia Dongxu started crying again, and it didn't seem like he was acting at all. Or maybe he wanted to take this opportunity to have a good cry and express his grievances and sadness.

Yi Zhonghai also sighed. Everyone knew that what happened today was Jia Zhang's fault, and he knew it too. He didn't mind asking Jia Zhang to apologize, but he couldn't kowtow.

Since ancient times, elders have never kowtowed to their juniors.

But he didn't think about it. What kind of elder was Jia Zhang? She was just an unreasonable old woman. Even if she wanted to be the elder, it depended on whether others recognized her. Did she really think that being old and living a long life would give her face?

What the hell!

"Dongxu, no matter what, she is your mother. Even if she made a big mistake, you can't ask her to kowtow and apologize to others."

Jia Dongxu didn't mind; he had long been disappointed with Jia Zhang. But he looked very embarrassed. "Master, I don't want to do this either. But I can't help it. What my mother did today was really too much. Think about it, if you have a child..."

There was silence for a moment.

Jia Dongxu said, "Think about Sha Zhu. He treasured his daughter so much after he had her. My mother said a few bad words to him and he got so angry. Not to mention the Jiang family who are so protective of their daughter."

"Master, I'm not blaming my mother, it's just that she really has caused me too much trouble. She has offended every family in this courtyard. I've been so upset over the years."

Yi Zhonghai fell silent. He had witnessed Jia Zhang's arrogance and domineering behavior for many years. Even because of his relationship with the Jia family, others would tolerate her behavior, which only made Jia Zhang's arrogance even more inflated.

However, they often hit a wall in front of the Jiang family because they don’t care about Yi Zhonghai, the backer behind Jia Zhang.

"Then Dongxu, what did your mother say? Is she willing to bow her head and apologize?"

Jia Dongxu smiled bitterly. "It's not up to her. If she really insists on doing this, what can I do? I can't bear it if any one of the family members hits me. I can't get hurt. I still have to go to work to support my family."

Yi Zhonghai couldn't say anything more to persuade Jia Dongxu, as the situation was stronger than him.

Jia Dongxu left, but he successfully won Yi Zhonghai's heart back, and the two did not become estranged.

Yi Zhonghai still couldn't bear to part with Jia Dongxu, his excellent and only caregiver. He had almost given up on Sha Zhu, and with Yang Shufen watching over him, he couldn't get close to him.

Moreover, Sha Zhu is now focused on his children and will no longer follow Yi Zhonghai around.

……

night.

The Jiang family was plotting how to bring disaster upon the Jia family. They could just find two older kids and give them some money to bully them. But Jia Zhang, the old bitch, was different. She couldn't vent her anger unless she was completely ruthless.

"Isn't her butt injured and she can't move? We can just blow her up while she's in the bathroom. Give her double the power!"

"No, it's no fun to keep staring at one place. She's a bit of a mouthful, so we should find a way to make her suffer. She loves meat, right? Let's make some food and add some ingredients so she can enjoy it."

"I think we should just find someone to kill her directly. It would be considered as getting rid of a pest for the people." This was said by Jiang Ping'an. He has always been a good person, and he must be very angry to say such words.

Jiang Daniu frowned and said, "Don't keep saying such angry words. Our family is a respectable one. Besides, this isn't a few decades ago. If someone was killed, then that meant killing them. The police back then wouldn't have cared too much about it. But that won't work now."

Jiang Fan nodded and said, "That's right. Killing Jia Zhang is not a good idea. She had a conflict with us and then something happened. It's easy to suspect us. Even if we can clean up our act, we will eventually be implicated. The police are not the stinky patrolmen of the old days."

Suddenly Jiang Fan smiled mysteriously, "Brother, just find someone to handle the stick, and leave Jia Zhang to me. I will make her die of heartache."

Jiang Fan didn't want to do anything else but steal Jia Zhang's money. This was the most direct way to make Jia Zhang feel distressed.

Of course, he could also frame Jia Zhang and have her thrown in jail, but that would require careful planning. He didn't want to waste his brain on this.

After hearing Jiang Fan say this, the others put Jia Zhang aside and started planning how to make the stick.

While drinking tea, Jiang Fan gave the Black Scorpion an order to monitor Jia Zhangshi, telling it to keep an eye on her every move, especially the box containing the money.

Then he thought about how to make Jia Zhang's injury heal more slowly. Jia Zhang lying on the bed was a contribution to the world.

"A wound on the butt means you have to poop a lot, of course."

Jiang Fan flipped his palm, and a packet of laxatives appeared in his hand. According to his years of experience, there are only two kinds of medicine in the world that are neither poison nor medicine. And there is basically no solution.

As the saying goes, laxatives are not poisons, and aphrodisiacs are not medicines.

These two things can be said to be unsolvable in traditional Chinese medicine, and no one can stand them.

Looking at the medicine bag in his hand, Jiang Fan smiled crookedly. But now is not the right time, he needs to wait.

At this moment, Jia Zhang was lying on the bed with bloodshot eyes. Jia Dongxu had made his words very clear.

He no longer cared about her and the Jiang family's affairs. Banggeng had already kowtowed and admitted his mistake, and the matter was over.

He didn't care whether Jia Zhang refused to admit her mistake or kowtowed to apologize.

When people came to his house, he would take his wife and children out and let them do whatever they wanted to her.

Chapter 253: Qin Huairu's Confrontation with Jia Zhangshi

Jia Zhang didn't know when she fell asleep. When she opened her eyes, it was almost noon.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Jia Zhang felt her stomach churning and a little pain.

"Dongxu, Dongxu, my stomach hurts and I need to poop. Please help me get out of bed."

Jia Zhang's voice was very weak, and she seemed to have a slight fever.

Qin Huairu was outside with her child. When she heard her voice, she went out and didn't want to pay attention to her.

After calling out a few times and seeing no one responding, Jia Zhang remembered what Jia Dongxu said about not caring about her anymore.

"This unfilial son is so unfilial. I really don't think I can raise him this big. He actually doesn't care about me, his biological mother. He is so unfilial. Old Jia, you..."

Jia Zhang didn't continue talking. She was afraid that Lao Jia would find out about her pregnancy and take her away. After all, Lao Jia and Jia Dongxu were father and son.

"If you don't care about me, I'll go on my own. Women hold up half the sky. I'm Zhang Xiaohua, an independent woman. I can still live well without relying on you stinky men."

Jia Zhang moved slowly, step by step towards the chamber pot in the room.

Squat down and you will hear a popping sound. From this sound you can tell that it is definitely full of soup.

Jia Zhang now had an indescribable feeling. She had the pain of having her wound pulled by her poop, but also the pleasure of having her stomach relaxed.

The combination of the two made her unconsciously make an indescribable sound. There were no words to describe it, except that the sound was quite vulgar.

After more than ten minutes, Jia Zhang tremblingly picked up the straw paper beside her. The paper was rough and scratchy, and the first touch was painful.

"Ouch, oh my god, why does this hurt so much?"

With a distorted face, Jia Zhang suddenly remembered that the doctor in the hospital had told her that due to the special location of the injury, wiping it with ordinary straw paper could easily cause great damage, and suggested that she wet a soft cloth with warm water before wiping it.

Jia Zhang looked at the yellow-stained straw paper in her hand, her thoughts swinging back and forth between dignity and comfort, and soon her dignity was thrown out of the window.

She yelled at the top of her lungs, "Qin Huairu, come in! If you don't come in, I'll crawl onto your bed."

Qin Huairu, who was outside, clenched her fists instantly, and her white fingers became paler because of the force of the clenching.

After taking a few deep breaths, she told Banggeng to take Xiaodang to play outside and not to leave the yard.

She turned around with great determination and walked into the house.

"Jia Zhang, what are you going to do?"

"Get a piece of cloth, wet it with hot water, and wipe it clean for me, or I'll roll on your bed."

Jia Zhang said shamelessly, which made Qin Huairu's eyes flash with blazing fire.

"Wipe! I'll wipe it for you!"

Qin Huairu grabbed the straw paper, wiped it upwards first, folded it, and then wiped the surrounding area in a circular motion.

It seemed like only a few moves, but the process was quite long. Because Jia Zhang was not cooperative, she screamed like a pig being slaughtered when Qin Huairu made her first move.

oooo

Jia Zhang's hoarse throat let out a shrill scream.

"Qin Huairu, do you know what you did?"

Jia Zhang held the table with one hand and touched the injured area with the other, looking at Qin Huairu angrily. She could feel blood oozing out.

"I knew you were a disaster. Our Dongxu has been bewitched by you and now he's disrespectful to me. It's all your fault. How dare you treat me like this, you unfaithful bitch! I'm going to make Dongxu divorce you!"

Qin Huairu was not worried or panicked at all when she heard Jia Zhang's threats. She stepped forward, saying harsh words.

"Jia Zhang, am I a disaster star? Then what is your good grandson Bang Geng that I gave birth to? A little jinx? And I bewitched Dongxu, but was it me who bewitched him? Wasn't it all your own fault?"

"For so many years, you've been misbehaving in the yard every day, causing Dongxu great shame. Do you know how much he's lost face? Every time he bows and apologizes to others, he's throwing his face on the ground for others to trample on! Have you ever thought about him?"

"As for me being unfaithful to my husband? Ha."

Qin Huairu sneered. She looked at Jia Zhang with a playful look. After looking her up and down, she spoke.

"Why do I remember that you're the most unfaithful woman in the Jia family? You were even pregnant with a fellow villager's child? And you still don't know who the father is? Is it because there were so many people that night that you can't remember? Or is it because those people came so many times that you got confused?"

With every question Qin Huairu asked, Jia Zhang's face turned paler, until it was completely pale and bloodless.

"No, no, no, that's not the case. It's not my fault. It's all their fault. I was not aware of it. I didn't know they would do such a thing."

Jia Zhang seemed to be condemned by her conscience. She grabbed her hair with both hands and shook her head frantically.

"You didn't know? You didn't know? Then your pants fell off by themselves? I think you should stop pretending to be a chaste widow. What's the difference between once and ten thousand times? It's the same feeling. Why don't you find a shabby yard and do those secret door things? Not only will you enjoy it, but you can also make money. Then you can eat meat whenever you want and buy clothes whenever you want. How wonderful is that life?"

If Jia Dongxu saw Qin Huairu now, he would definitely kick her, pinch her neck and shout, "No matter who you are, get off my wife!"

Qin Huairu's behavior today was really different from her previous behavior. In front of everyone, Qin Huairu was always a filial daughter-in-law. When faced with a difficult mother-in-law like Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu also tried her best to be perfect. She had never had a quarrel or a fight with Jia Zhang.

Most women who heard about her experience said they were lucky they weren't Qin Huairu, otherwise the Jia family's dilapidated house would have been set on fire sooner or later. And that old bitch Jia Zhang, if she didn't knock out her teeth, she'd have to assume they were all wisdom teeth!

Qin Huairu ignored Jia Zhang's renewed collapse and went out to clean up after herself, carrying the bedpan. She had tirelessly cared for her injured mother-in-law, but it was a pity she didn't appreciate it. She was scolded for using a little too much strength, which was really ruthless.

Moreover, she did not expect Jia Zhangshi to be able to clean it herself. No one could stand the smell of a basin of feces in the room, even if it was a puddle of water.

Jia Zhang was in a trance in the house for a long time before she returned to normal.

She felt the pain in her body and knew that what had just happened was real.

"This Qin Huairu is really a bitch! How dare she treat me like this? Now her true nature is exposed. When Dongxu comes back, I will definitely tell him the true face of this bitch. Then..."

Jia Zhang fantasized that after Jia Dongxu knew the truth, he would drive Qin Huairu out of the house, admit his mistakes to her, become filial to her again, buy her meat and new clothes, hand over his salary to her, and even find her a few strong old men.

But she quickly returned to reality.

"Ouch, it hurts so much. Let's go to the hospital and get some painkillers. Also, my head is dizzy, let's go see if I have a fever."

Chapter 254: Jia Zhang Eats Large Intestine

Jia Zhang found the box containing the money, took the money out of it, and then dragged her broken body to the hospital and asked the doctor to prescribe some painkillers and fever-reducing drugs.

After taking two painkillers, Jia Zhang waited for the drugs to take effect. Gradually, she felt no pain and felt like she was reborn.

"This medicine is really good."

Jia Zhang said this comfortably, her face peaceful without a trace of hostility.

Although there was still a slight pain, Jia Zhang put the painkiller in her pocket. It was not because she didn't want to take another pill, nor was it because she remembered the doctor's advice that taking too much painkiller would cause addiction, but because she was afraid of spending money.

On the way back, Jia Zhang smelled the aroma of braised meat coming from the delicatessen on the street, which instantly aroused her appetite.
