Zhang Caixia ignored the two grown men. She walked very quickly, twisting her hips and waving her hands, as if she was going to fight.
When they reached the door of Yan Shuhua's house, she started to curse. It would have been better if she didn't curse. The more she cursed, the more irritating it became. Even a grown man like Li Dagang couldn't stand it any longer, so he quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Mom, can you please stop making trouble? It will be so embarrassing if the villagers hear it!"
"How can I not make a scene? Shen Hongmei was just picking on me on purpose today, and then she asked the store manager to fire me. That was her plan, didn't I know what she was thinking? Tell her to get out of here. If I don't fight her to the end today, I'm not Zhang Caixia!"
Zhang Caixia is not someone who is easily offended. For more than a decade, she has relied on this job to support her family. Whenever someone asked her what her job was, she happily said that she worked in a state-owned supply and marketing cooperative, which made others very envious.
So this job is Zhang Caixia's life. Now that she has lost this job, it is like killing her and bleeding her. She would never come out to cause trouble after dinner.
But the more she thought about it, the angrier she got, especially when she heard Shen Mengmeng say that Yan Shuhua could earn several dollars a day. She could no longer sit still and immediately went out, ready to have a fight with Shen Hongmei to make her feel better.
The roar outside the door was getting louder and louder, and they were knocking on the door, almost waking up the residents next door. They knocked and cursed: "Shen Hongmei, if you have the guts, don't be a coward, get out here right now!"
Hearing the loud noise, Yan Shuhua quickly got up and put on his clothes.
When Yan Shuhua got up, she saw Shen Hongmei was about to go out. She thought that if these two people started quarreling, they would definitely quarrel to the point of chaos. In addition, she had lost her job now, so she would definitely be very angry about this matter. So she didn't want Shen Hongmei to get involved in this mess. She asked her to go back to the room and sleep, and not to come out no matter what!
Yan Shuhua opened the door and saw Zhang Caixia without even a coat, just a sweater, her hair was blown extremely messy by the wind, and the way she stood was like a female demon, with her hands folded, looking careless.
"Auntie Cai, why are you here so late at night instead of sleeping?" Yan Shuhua said this while rubbing his eyes and yawning.
"Where's Shen Hongmei?"
"Auntie Cai, so you are looking for my mom. My mom is sleeping. What do you want to talk to her about?"
"Sleeping? She actually has the nerve to sleep? Tell her to get out right now." Seeing that she didn't go in to call Shen Hongmei, Zhang Caixia simply planned to go in. Yan Shuhua hurriedly used her delicate body to block her fierce anger.
Zhang Caixia was unhappy and reached out to push Yan Shuhua, but the latter held the door handle with one hand and refused to let her enter the house. Who knew if Zhang Caixia, who was so furious at this time, would smash all her things when she entered the house?
"Auntie Cai, you are already an adult, and you are yelling like this in the middle of the night. Isn't that disturbing others? Even if you don't consider others, you should at least consider your own face. What will others think if you yell like this?"
Li Dagang felt particularly upset when he saw Yan Shuhua, and bowed his head to apologize: "Shuhua, my mother was quite upset today, so she said these words, don't take it to heart."
After saying that, he hurriedly walked over to pull Zhang Caixia's hand away, but this stubborn old mother refused to let go and even moved her face closer to Yan Shuhua, looking like she would not give up tonight.
Yan Shuhua breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Dagang, I also know that your mother has lost her job. She must be worried now. But it's okay. Life is getting better and better now. Are you still worried about losing your job?" Yan Shuhua looked at Zhang Caixia, "Auntie Cai, you should go back first. It's not a big deal anyway."
Zhang Caixia was pulled aside by Li Dagang. She thought the trouble would end there, but who would have thought that her few words, which were not a big deal, would arouse his anger again.
"You little bitch!" Zhang Caixia suddenly pulled Li Dagang away, then rushed forward while rolling up her sleeves, "I'm going to beat you to death today. You're just as cheap and rotten as your mother!"
Li Dagang was almost embarrassed to see his mother making such a fuss, especially when people nearby got up to watch the fun. He finally couldn't help but get angry at his mother: "Mom, how can you scold Shuhua like this? You lost your job, and it wasn't her fault. Can you stop making a fuss?"
"Even if he didn't do it, then they did. If I don't look for him, who else can I look for?"
When Yan Shuhua saw Zhang Caixia cursing like that, he was really speechless towards her.
"You are going too far by saying these things. Did our family offend you in any way? You are just too domineering. Otherwise, why didn't anyone speak up for you when the manager wanted to fire you? If someone inside you spoke up for you, the manager wouldn't have fired you so easily. You have a problem with your character. Why do you blame us?"
Yan Shuhua didn't argue, and every word she said was based on reason, leaving Zhang Caixia speechless. Li Pingshu, who had been silent, finally spoke up: "Shuhua is right. If you had gotten along well with your colleagues, and if they had said something good about you, wouldn't you have been fired? Now you're blaming them."
Li Pingshu is a reasonable man. He thinks his wife's behavior today is really too embarrassing. He just wants her to stop embarrassing herself here: "Go back quickly. You can find another job if you lose it. Why are you so anxious?"
"Li Pingshu, whose husband are you? Are you Zhang Caixia's husband or Shen Hongmei's husband?"
"Zhang Caixia, you've made enough noise today, go back quickly!" Li Pingshu looked at the people around him who had opened the door and came out to see. They were not sleeping at night and were shouting so loudly that anyone would be attracted. He shouted, "If you don't go back, you will make trouble here by yourself!"
