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

Jia Zhang shouted as if she was really fighting for Banggeng.

Director Wang explained, "According to regulations, after Jia Dongxu's death, his job position must indeed be taken over by a relative. Both Bang Geng and Qin Huairu are eligible."

"That won't do! That job belongs to our Jia family, so it can only be given to me... my grandson."

Jia Zhang hurriedly changed her words, but Director Wang still noticed it.

"Director Wang, I don't want to discuss this with her right now. I just want to know when we can catch the murderer and avenge Dongxu. I can't just let Dongxu lie in the police station forever. I want him to rest in peace."

Qin Huairu suddenly held Director Wang's hand sincerely. She thought so in her heart, or perhaps this was what she should do now, instead of competing with Jia Zhang.

"Comrade Qin Huairu, don't worry. We will definitely catch the murderer and make him receive the punishment he deserves."

Director Wang said solemnly, however, the conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law still needs to be reconciled.

After mediation by Director Wang and Director Yu, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu stopped fighting for the time being. The most important thing now was to bury Jia Dongxu.

The job issue was simple. The job was reserved for Banggeng, but he was too young to take on the job, so an adult had to do it.

But it was impossible for Jia Zhang to go to work, so Qin Huairu had to go.

This made Jia Zhang so angry that her teeth itched and her expression was distorted for a moment.

After Director Wang came out of the Jia family, he gathered everyone in the courtyard and told them what had happened in the Jia family. He also warned everyone not to go out alone late at night in the near future.

After Director Wang left, Qin Huairu came out crying with her two children and knelt down in front of everyone, asking for help.

"Dear neighbors, Dongxu died tragically, leaving us an orphan and a widow. I don't ask for your care in the future, but I only hope that you can help bury Dongxu. I, Qin Huairu, kowtow to you all here."

She kowtowed and pressed Banggeng and Xiaodang, although Banggeng looked unconvinced.

"Xiao Qin, what are you doing? Dongxu was a good man. We are all very sad that he is gone. We will definitely help him if we can."

"That's right, everyone, lend a hand. We have to bury Dongxu no matter what."

Everyone watched indifferently when Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu fought, but when it came to this kind of thing, everyone was still unambiguous.

The dead are the greatest.

Qin Huairu looked at her neighbors with gratitude, but she felt a little disappointed that she didn't see anyone from the Jiang and He families in front of the crowd.

If they wanted to bury Jia Dongxu in a grand manner, only the Jiang, He, and Xu families in the yard had the ability to do so, while the other families were still far behind.

And none of these three companies have any intention of making a breakthrough.

The Jiang family and the Xu family really didn't have any, and Sha Zhu originally wanted to show up, but was stopped by He Daqing.

"Ahem, comrades, let me say a few words."

Just when everyone was about to disperse, our comrade Liu Haizhong came out with a bulging belly.

Jiang Fan raised his eyebrows. What does this fat guy want to do?

“Comrades!!!”

"Jia Dongxu's sacrifice is unfortunate and sad, but we cannot be discouraged. We must fight the criminals to the end!"

Liu Haizhong clenched his right fist into the sky and shouted loudly.

"I, Liu Haizhong, will never reconcile with criminals!"

Jiang Fan understood that this was a show of strength in front of others.

Fulfill him!

He raised his head towards Xu Damao, pointed at Liu Haizhong, and then pointed at Qin Huairu.

The latter nodded in understanding instantly.

"Second uncle is right! Let's give Second uncle a quack!"

Suddenly there was thunderous applause!

This made Liu Haizhong very happy, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, but he suppressed it.

Xu Damao came out and said, "Neighbors, handling a funeral is a big deal. We need to elect a person of high moral character and prestige to lead us all. What do you think?"

"That's right! For something as important as this, someone needs to lead everyone!"

"I choose Second Master, he is the one that everyone wants!"

I don’t know who was in the crowd, cheering Liu Haizhong’s name.

Xu Damao nodded and said, "That's what I meant. What do you think of the people's call, Uncle Er?"

What did Liu Haizhong think? Of course he smiled. Highly respected, popularly chosen, a leader – every word of this was said for Liu Haizhong.

"Okay, since everyone has recommended me, I'll take on this responsibility!"

Then Liu Haizhong began a series of arrangements.

How should I put it, Liu Haizhong is a little stupid, but he still knows the funeral procedures clearly.

Let Qin Huairu take people to the police station to bring back Jia Dongxu's body.

Qin Huairu nodded in agreement and went with a few kind-hearted neighbors.

"Old Yan, come with me. I have something for you to do." Liu Haizhong acted like a leader and called Yan Bugui over.

Yan Bugui wanted to curse, but he followed honestly.

"How come you let your bangs get in such a revealing role?"

After everyone left, Xu Damao found Jiang Fan to ask.

"Show your face? Remember one thing, if anyone in this courtyard has anything to do with the Jia family, there will be no good ending." Jiang Fan told him seriously.

"If you want to talk about other things, I have no objection, but this is Jia Dongxu's funeral. Can the Jia family still hold us back?"

This is a matter of life and death, who dares to mess around with it?

"Do you think Jia Zhang still considers herself a member of the Jia family? With her behavior, she will definitely cause trouble."

Xu Damao turned his head to look at the Jia family, with an expression of watching a show on his face.

"I'm going to buy some food and have another meal at your house at noon."

At the Jia family, Jia Zhang covered her head and smeared some wood ash on the wound. The bleeding has now stopped.

She didn't go out just now, and she had no intention of helping with Jia Dongxu's funeral.

"Where's the meat? Where did Qin Huairu put it?"

She rummaged around, looking for the piece of meat that Jia Dongxu had bought to make dumplings.

"Here it is? I told you, no meat can escape my nose."

Looking at the big white fat meat in her hand, Jia Zhang's eyes flashed green light, and she was like a hungry wolf, wishing she could swallow the meat immediately.

"I have to hurry up and cook this meat, otherwise when that little bitch comes back, there won't be any for me."

Jia Zhang quickly cut the meat, lit a fire and put it in the pot.

After a while, the smell of fried meat wafted into the air.

"Who is this? It's not even noon yet and they're already cooking, and they're using so much oil. It's unbearable."

"This is coming from the Jia family. Is it Jia Zhang who is cooking?"

"Hmph, instead of helping to collect the body after his son's death, he hides at home and eats meat. It seems Qin Huairu didn't hit him lightly just now. Jia Zhangshi should be sent away as well."

Jia Zhang had no idea that her reputation had declined again. At this moment, she was looking at the meat slices rolling in the pot and kept swallowing her saliva.

Chapter 503: Jia Zhang gets beaten for eating meat

Xu Damao, who was about to go buy groceries, was speechless when he saw Jia Zhang's behavior.

"If Jia Dongxu hadn't brought Jia Zhang back from the countryside and let her fend for herself there, perhaps he wouldn't have died."

After sighing, Xu Damao pushed his cart out to buy groceries. He wanted to return to the courtyard before Qin Huairu came back, so that he might be able to watch another show.

In the backyard, Yan Bugui touched his dry lips and felt regretful. He had lost this time.

Liu Haizhong kept talking for a long time and used idioms incorrectly. He kindly corrected him and was scolded. If Liu Guangqi had not the possibility of becoming an official, he would not have paid any attention to Liu Haizhong, an illiterate person.

What a fool, he took over such a mess just because someone pushed him into it.

How can the Jia family be good people?

Back in the middle courtyard, Yan Bugui smelled something and came to the door of the Jia family.

Taking a peek inside, I saw Jia Zhang grabbing a large piece of fat meat and stuffing it into her mouth. She was eating it with great pleasure, her mouth full of oil.

thump.

"Eat it, you'd better poop to death, you old bitch."

Yan Bugui felt uncomfortable when he thought about working for the Jia family all night and getting nothing in return. He felt like he had lost out.

Jia Zhang licked the plate clean, not wanting to leave any oil or water. After eating, she lay on the bed contentedly, and her desire for money became even stronger.

"If I can't get that rebellious son Jia Dongxu's job, then I'll have to sleep with He Daqing sooner rather than later. Then I'll be relying on him just like I relied on Yi Zhonghai. That way I can get a piece of the big fat meat."

Thinking of the medicine she bought a few days ago, Jia Zhang felt more confident and lay down on the bed with a kitchen knife.

More than half an hour later, Xu Damao pushed the cart back to the yard.

"Uncle Jiang, I'm back from buying groceries. I'll have to trouble you again at noon."

"Well, it's just a meal. You're not eating for free. You even bought some vegetables." Jiang Daniu took the dishes. The whole family had no objection to Xu Damao bringing his own ingredients to eat for free.

"There's no such thing as free food these days. By the way, Uncle Jiang, Qin Huairu hasn't come back yet, right?" Xu Damao smiled.

"No, it will probably be soon."

Within two minutes, Qin Huairu's crying voice was heard outside the door.

"Dongxu, why didn't you think about me and my child while you were fighting the spies? How will we, an orphan and a widow, survive if you leave us?"

Jiang Fan raised his head, his eyes narrowed slightly. "Did Jia Dongxu fight with the spies? Or is Qin Huairu trying to gain a good reputation for him?"

The neighbors came out again and watched Qin Huairu crying and carrying Jia Dongxu's body back home.

"Thank you all, neighbors. If it weren't for your help, I really don't know what I would do." Qin Huairu expressed her gratitude again and almost knelt down and kowtowed.

After a few words of comfort, everyone told her to mourn less and that the important thing was to live well and raise her child.

After seeing off the neighbors, Bang Geng immediately jumped up and said, "Mom, can you smell if anyone is eating meat?"

As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the smell of meat. Although it was very subtle, it could not escape his nose.

Qin Huairu's face changed after hearing this, and she quickly found the place where the meat was hidden. When she opened it, she found that the meat she bought was gone.

"Jia Zhang, you beast!"

Qin Huairu picked up the stick next to her and started fighting with Jia Zhang again.

Jia Zhang had known this would happen. She picked up the kitchen knife beside her and waved it, "Come here! If you come here, I'll chop you to death!"

Qin Huairu really didn't dare to move. Jia Dongxu's funeral had not been arranged yet. If something happened to her, Banggeng and Xiaodang would really become fatherless and motherless children, which was something she didn't want to see.

Seeing Qin Huairu standing there, not daring to move forward, Jia Zhangshi seemed to have regained the feeling she had when she first became a mother-in-law, and she became arrogant again, "Humph, throw the stick away! You little bitch, you are still making trouble! I, Jia Zhangshi, have the final say in this family."

Qin Huairu obediently threw away the stick, hatred surging in her eyes, and looked at Jia Zhang as if she were a mortal enemy.

"Humph. I'm Jia Dongxu's biological mother. Not only can he have a piece of meat, but even a full banquet, he has to get it for me! Otherwise, he's unfilial. And you, you have to be filial to me, otherwise you're also unfilial!..."

Banggeng didn't hear what Jia Zhang said next, he only heard that Jia Zhang ate the big piece of fat meat.

Suddenly, he was filled with anger. You old bitch, you didn't share your meat with me. I gave you half of everything I stole.

Banggeng became more and more angry as he thought about it, and when he saw his mother being so wronged in front of Jia Zhang, he immediately decided to teach Jia Zhang a lesson.

He went out, found a slingshot, picked up a few sharp stones and threw them at Jia Zhang.

With a whoosh, a stone hit Jia Zhang's wrist.

In pain, the kitchen knife fell to the ground with a clang. Qin Huairu was quick-witted and picked up a stick. She walked forward, kicked the knife away, and raised the stick to hit him.

Bang Geng also took advantage of the opportunity to shoot at Jia Zhang. The mother and son worked together to beat Jia Zhang so hard that she couldn't stop wailing and immediately begged for mercy.

By now, the neighbors all knew that Jia Zhang had actually cooked a meal of meat today. They all expressed their understanding of Qin Huairu's behavior, and no one went to help.

Only Xu Damao couldn't contain his inner desire to watch the show. He ran to the door of Jia's house and looked inside. "Beat her, hit her with the stick, and hit her well. And Qin Huairu, hit her face! Smash her face so she doesn't come out and scare people."
