"Humph, it's good to know!"
Jia Zhang raised her eyebrows and muttered complacently.
"Sister-in-law, please stop talking."
The good-natured lady in the courtyard couldn't stand it anymore and said something with a frown.
Jia Zhang curled her lips at the aunt and said indifferently:
Humph, you were no match for me when you were young, and now that you’re old you still want to control me?
"Silly Zhu, I'm telling you, from now on, you must get the lunch box..."
Seeing He Yuzhu standing there motionless, Jia Zhangshi stood up from the small stool, pointed at He Yuzhu and walked towards him.
However, halfway through the conversation, Qin Huairu and the old man's faces looked so gloomy that it looked like it was going to rain.
He glanced at He Yuzhu stealthily, and seeing the frighteningly cold expression on his face, he couldn't help but shrink his neck and stepped back.
"Master."
He Yuzhu said calmly: "It is said that women hold up half the sky. Is my sister Yushui considered a part of women?"
The corners of the uncle's eyes kept twitching, and in his heart he was cursing the old hag Jia Zhang from head to toe.
How could he respond to this? If he did, he would be shooting himself in the foot.
"Does it count?"
He Yuzhu asked again with a sullen face.
"Well, Yu Shui is still in her second year of high school, but she is also a member of the women's comrades."
The old man had already guessed what He Yuzhu was going to say next, but he couldn't lie with his eyes open and say that He Yushui was a man, right?
At this time, the second uncle Liu Haizhong, the second aunt, and the two sons Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian in the backyard all came out from the hanging flower gate to watch the fun.
Xu Damao even brought a small stool and held a handful of melon seeds in his hand, looking like a real spectator.
The three uncles in the front yard, Yan Bugui, Sihuo, and Lao Li, also came over through the Moon Gate to watch the fun.
In this era, there is not much entertainment after dinner, just chatting about the gossip of other people.
With everything going on now, you’d be a shame not to check it out.
This is exactly what He Yuzhu wanted. He stared at the old man and deliberately slowed down his speech:
"Aunt Jia just said that my sister Yu Shui is a money-loser. Does she think the saying 'Women hold up half the sky' is wrong?"
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's heart hard.
Who dares to say this statement is wrong?
This is a crime of insulting and slandering women. If the street office finds out, there's no telling how they'll educate you. You might even have to stay in jail for a few days.
The faces of the uncle and Qin Huairu turned as pale as dead people.
Although Aunt Jia doesn't look as shrewd as Qin Huairu, she is not a brainless shrew.
Otherwise, after Jia's father died, how could she, a widow without a job, survive with Jia Dongxu in this courtyard full of beasts?
When he heard He Yuzhu's words, he was so frightened that his body went limp, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
"Mother……"
Qin Huairu screamed and ran over to help Jia Zhang up to check on her condition.
The old man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glared at He Yuzhu and said, "Look at what you have done," then went to see how Jia Zhang was doing.
When everyone saw that there was nothing exciting to watch, they all prepared to go home.
But He Yuzhu snatched the enamel pot from the second uncle's hand and poured it on Jia Zhang's face.
"what……"
Jia Zhang screamed, and the steaming tea made her face red.
"Zhuzi, what are you doing?"
The uncle was furious and stood up and glared at He Yuzhu:
"You did this in front of so many people in the courtyard. Do you still care about the people in this courtyard?"
"Master, Jia Zhang insulted and slandered our female comrades in front of you, Master.
Instead of handing her over to the neighborhood committee, you defended her. What do you mean by that?"
While He Yuzhu was speaking, he handed the enamel pot in his hand back to the dazed Second Uncle.
"I, I am Jasmine Gao Sui..."
The second uncle muttered something, looking at the empty enamel pot in his hand with a painful look on his face. He hadn't even taken a sip of the drink he had just made.
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him at this moment.
The veins on the old man's forehead were about to burst. He used everyone in the courtyard to pressure Sha Zhu, but Sha Zhu directly used the crime of insulting and slandering women to pressure him.
This……
"Zhu Zi, I'm really sorry. I want to apologize to you on behalf of my mother. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She doesn't have any bad intentions."
When Qin Huairu saw that the atmosphere had become awkward, she quickly came over and pulled He Yuzhu to apologize.
"Sister Qin, we have lived in the same courtyard for so many years, so of course I know who Aunt Jia is. I just said it casually, and I didn't have any bad intentions."
A brilliant smile suddenly appeared on He Yuzhu's gloomy face, as if it were the best of the best, and the gloom just now disappeared in an instant.
He Yuzhu knew that if he really sent Aunt Jia to the street office just because of the phrase "money-losing item", everyone in the yard would probably stab him in the back behind his back.
So he was just trying to scare the old woman.
When Qin Huairu saw He Yuzhu smiling, her tense heart immediately relaxed.
The old man also came to his senses and realized that He Yuzhu was trying to scare him. He couldn't help but sigh secretly:
Am I really old?
"Hey, I knew you weren't such a stingy person, Zhuzi."
Qin Huairu smiled and patted He Yuzhu's shoulder, and the tense atmosphere eased.
"Sister Qin, we have lived as neighbors for so many years, so of course I have to give you face.
However, I still have two questions for Aunt Jia, and I want to hear her opinion. "
He Yuzhu's expression also relaxed, and he even started addressing Jia Zhang as Aunt Jia.
"You, what do you want to ask?"
Jia Zhang looked at He Yuzhu with lingering fear. After so many years, she had never realized that silly Zhu had such a scary side.
"Aunt Jia, you said rainwater is a money-losing commodity, but I wonder if you are a money-losing commodity?
Where is your mother?
Are you the small loser born of a big loser?"
He Yuzhu's words made the relaxed atmosphere tense again, and everyone stared at Jia Zhang with strange expressions.
"Zhu Zi, what are you talking about?"
The uncle's face turned gloomy again.
"Hehe, Shazhu, this is the first time I, Xu Damao, have noticed that you are like this. You really asked a very smart question."
While speaking, Xu Damao, a spectator, gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up.
"Xu Damao, shut up!"
The old man glared at Xu Damao impatiently.
"That's right, it's none of your business!"
Liu Haizhong also took this opportunity to act like a big shot.
"Master, I just said that as long as you are still the master of this courtyard, I will have to endure it even if Jia Zhangshi rides on my neck and shits on me.
You, don’t really think so, do you really intend to do this? "
He Yuzhui showed that fake smile on his face again. The old man glared at He Yuzhui angrily, not knowing how to respond.
"Old Yi, please stop talking."
Seeing that everyone was looking for fun, the auntie couldn't help but pull Yi Zhonghai's sleeve.
The first uncle finally reacted and saw that everyone's eyes were on him. The second uncle and the third uncle had no intention of helping him. He couldn't help but curse the two old guys in his heart.
"Zhu Zi, you misunderstood. As the eldest uncle in the courtyard, I help to mediate conflicts between neighbors. How could I help Jia Zhangshi bully you?"
It's helpless. An old man is so old and still has to provide a way out for himself. It's tiring.
He Yuzhu smiled, turned around and looked at Jia Zhangshi again: "Aunt Jia, you haven't answered the question I asked you just now."
"Silly Zhu, you, don't go too far!
I, I am also an elder in the courtyard after all, you...how can you speak to me like this?"
Jia Zhang was scared. She thought that as long as the old man was around, Sha Zhu would never dare to argue with her.
Unexpectedly... this old man Yi Zhonghai is so useless!
"Aunt Jia, no matter whether you are an elder or a younger person, you cannot insult or slander women, don't you agree?"
He Yuzhu's words made it clear: if you don't answer my questions, I will send you to the street office.
Aunt Jia was scared.
She knew that if she was really sent to the street office, she would not know what would happen to her for the rest of her life.
"I, I'm not."
Aunt Jia shrank back and answered in a low voice.
"Then I don't understand. Aunt Jia, since you are not a money-loser, how do you know that rainwater is a money-loser?"
He Yuzhu stared at Jia Zhangshi with a murderous look in his eyes.
Qin Huairu was about to plead for her mother-in-law, but was stopped by a look from the old man.
The master finally understood that Jia Zhang had to bow her head today, otherwise the matter would not be resolved.
"Sister-in-law, we are from the same courtyard. It's not shameful to admit your mistakes to the child."
The third uncle Yan Bugui spoke at the right time to give Jia Zhangshi a way out. It can be said that the people's teachers are highly conscious.
"I, I said the wrong thing. Yu Shui is a good girl. She is not a money-loser."
Adhering to the truth that "a wise man never suffers a loss in front of him", Jia Zhang quickly admitted his mistake.
Although it was a bit embarrassing for her as an elder to admit her mistake to a junior like He Yuzhu, it was better than sending her to the street office.
"Well, I like what Aunt Jia said. I don't know if you are a money-loser, but Yu Shui is my precious sister."
He Yuzhu nodded seriously, and without waiting for Jia Zhang to speak, he continued with the second question:
"You just said that I, He Yuzhu, am an ungrateful person who can never be fed. Why don't I remember your Jia family giving Yushui and I a meal?
On the contrary, after Brother Dongxu died, an uncle told me that it was not easy for Sister Qin, a widow, to raise her mother-in-law and three children, and asked me to help your family more.
So, in the past year, my lunch boxes have all been delivered to your house. As for the money Sister Qin and I borrowed, it was at least eighty.
But what did I get in return?
An ungrateful person who can’t be fed?
Yes, Aunt Jia is the one in this yard with the best health and the best complexion, but you are also the one who is hard to feed!"
He Yuzhu's words were no less than a slap in the face to Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu.
Of course, even the old man got some of the remaining power.
The old man only felt his eyelids twitching non-stop, and the breath was pressed against his chest where he couldn't go up or down, and he was about to explode.
Qin Huairu was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a crack in the ground and crawl into it. She really didn't expect He Yuzhu to slap her in the face in front of so many people in the yard.
