Madam Jia, sitting in her chair, scoffed. "Twenty catties of flour and you want to eat river clams? You're getting more and more confused."
After speaking, he glanced at Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai shuddered, overwhelmed with an indescribable embarrassment.
It seems that Madam Jia is a tough nut to crack. I have to take the lead and deflate her arrogance, otherwise I'll not only lose 20 catties of flour, but also be ridiculed. Wouldn't that be a double loss?
Yi Zhonghai slightly raised his head, his eyes fixed on Jia Zhangshi.
"Do you know what 20 jin of flour is worth now? Let alone a widow, even a young woman could easily get it."
Madam Jia sat down unhurriedly and poured herself a glass of water.
"Yes, it's that valuable. Who did you give it to? I'm a widow too."
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai felt a wave of dizziness. He thought to himself: Of course I know you're a widow. But how can you compare to Qin Huairu, that widow?
Compared to Qin Huairu, you're like someone who's been hit by a truck.
"Jia Dongxu was my apprentice. As the saying goes, a master and apprentice are like father and son. My apprentice is gone, what's wrong with me sending some food to his family?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi chuckled.
“Oh, if a master and apprentice are like father and son, then you are his father and I am his mother.”
Yi Zhonghai's eyes widened at those words. His throat bobbed, wanting to say something but unable to utter a sound. Good heavens, what kind of person do you think I am?
"That's not how it works. His child is still young, and Qin Huairu is all alone. Her salary isn't high, so it's not easy for her. As her mentor, it's only right that I help her out."
Jia Zhangshi sarcastically remarked, "From ancient times to the present, I've only ever heard of apprentices giving gifts to their masters, never of masters giving gifts to their apprentices."
"You think your little schemes and tricks can escape my eyes? Let me tell you, although my Qin Huairu is a widow, she's still beautiful and has a great figure."
"With that look and figure, no young woman could compare. You old hag, just give up on that idea."
Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi were talking nonsense. Jia Zhangshi then said, "I think if you're looking for someone, you should look for someone like me, someone who can make do with you."
"And all these years, you still don't have children. I don't know if it's because your land isn't good, or if your seeds aren't good."
"Putting everything else aside, look at Qin Huairu, she gave birth to three in a row, she's definitely a woman who's good at bearing children."
Yi Zhonghai had been childless for many years, which had always been a source of deep sorrow for him, and he was most sensitive about it being brought up by others. As it turned out, Jia Zhangshi actually mocked him.
This immediately broke Yi Zhonghai's defenses. The good thing he had planned for today didn't happen, he lost 20 jin of flour, and was even subjected to veiled mockery and sarcasm.
In the blink of an eye, Yi Zhonghai swung his hand and slapped Jia Zhangshi across the face.
Jia Zhangshi let out a miserable scream, raised her two fat hands, and viciously clawed at Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai was not to be outdone, and the two began to wrestle.
Although Jia Zhangshi was a woman, she was obese, had a fierce personality, and showed no mercy. Yi Zhonghai's face and neck were covered in scratches. Her fingernails were filled with torn flesh and blood.
Yi Zhonghai, a worker in a steel rolling mill, was very strong. He beat Jia Zhangshi until her face was bruised and swollen, and she was hit countless times on the stomach and buttocks.
Seeing that Jia Zhangshi had scratched his face without any mercy, he decided to be ruthless and grabbed Jia Zhangshi's shoulders and feet.
Jia Zhangshi was knocked to the ground, and Yi Zhonghai mounted her and slapped her hard across the face several times.
As Jia Zhangshi lay on the ground, her eyes narrowed and she cried out in panic.
"Yi Zhonghai, you old bastard, how dare you bully me in broad daylight! I'm going to the police station to report you for indecent assault and rape."
Yi Zhonghai gave a disdainful snort.
"Hmph, what are you thinking? Rape you? Dream on."
"I'm going to teach you a lesson today. If it weren't for your wicked mother-in-law, Qin Huairu wouldn't be having such a hard time. You dared to interrupt my good time and made me lose 20 catties of flour. I'll beat you to death."
Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to bend down and strangle Jia Zhangshi, he suddenly froze, his eyes bulging.
She felt a sharp, cold pain in her groin. Jia Zhangshi was clutching her manhood tightly.
"Stop scratching it, it's going to break."
"Since you don't need him anyway, you might as well destroy him."
Jia Zhangshi exerted all her strength; the instinct for survival drove Yi Zhonghai to desperately grab Jia Zhangshi's hand.
It let out a terrible scream.
Within minutes, both of them were exhausted. Yi Zhonghai collapsed onto Jia Zhangshi, panting heavily.
With bloodshot eyes, Jia Zhangshi glared at Yi Zhonghai and screamed wildly, "How dare you! You damn old scoundrel! I'll fight you to the death today!"
After yelling, he reached for Yi Zhonghai's waist. Yi Zhonghai sat up abruptly, landing squarely on Jia Zhangshi's chest.
Jia Zhangshi went limp like a cotton quilt.
Yi Zhonghai knelt down and pressed down on Jia Zhangshi's arms.
He stepped forward and slapped Jia Zhangshi several times. Surprisingly, Jia Zhangshi didn't resist.
Blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth.
Madam Jia sneered, "Come on, keep going, you spineless coward, if you have the guts, kill me!"
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai looked down at the stubborn Jia Zhangshi, whose face was swollen from his own slap and whose mouth was still bleeding.
Seeing this scene, Yi Zhonghai was so frightened that his legs trembled uncontrollably.
Although he said he wanted to kill Jia Zhangshi, the thought of causing a death made him uneasy. Given the current situation, he'd probably have to stay in jail for several years.
But at this moment, he couldn't control himself. He started urinating, clearly because he had just been injured by Jia Zhangshi. The urine flowed down his trouser leg.
Although Jia Zhangshi was shrewish, she had never seen anything like this before...
His mouth opened and closed with difficulty. Then, as if remembering something, he quickly covered his mouth.
He tried to move his body shakily, then cried out in terror, "What are you doing? Someone's here! Murder!"
The conversation and fight between Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi didn't last particularly long, and since they were both off work today, it was lunchtime.
Upon hearing this terrifying shout, the entire courtyard erupted in chaos. Men, women, and children rushed over, bowls of rice in hand.
Just as they were about to be caught red-handed, Yi Zhonghai spoke up: "Little sister, what are you yelling about? If someone sees us like this, we're both finished!"
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi hurriedly said to Yi Zhonghai, "Then why don't you get up right away? Someone might see us!"
Upon seeing this, Yi Zhonghai quickly got up and helped Jia Zhangshi to her feet as well. Jia Zhangshi got up in such a hurry that she lost her balance and fell into Yi Zhonghai's arms.
Just then, the crowd arrived, and seeing Yi Zhonghai embracing Jia Zhangshi, they all went wild to watch the spectacle...
