After seeing Sha Zhu close the door, Jia Zhang's face instantly turned dark.
"Silly Zhu..." Jia Zhang wanted to curse a few more times, but was stopped by an old lady.
"Well, if you make trouble again, you can't rely on Shazhu anymore." said an aunt.
Jia Zhang immediately shut up, but she was very unwilling.
Seeing that Jia Zhang had shut up, the aunt didn't want to continue chatting with her, so she just left Jia Zhang aside and went home.
Jia Zhang was left standing there at a loss. Seeing Sha Zhu's tightly closed door, she could only go home to discuss countermeasures with Jia Dongxu.
When the aunt returned home, she saw Yi Zhonghai drinking wine with pickles.
"Old Yi, Shazhu doesn't care about the Jia family's affairs. The Jia family already knows about it. He just had a fight with Jia Zhang." said an aunt.
"What?" Yi Zhonghai was also a little confused. In just a short while, this matter was confirmed? Originally, Yi Zhonghai wanted to wait until Sha Zhu calmed down tomorrow, and then he could just go to Sha Zhu and say something.
"Just now I sent Sha Zhu back home, and Jia Zhang insisted on coming out to watch the fun." Auntie said indifferently.
In fact, if it were up to the auntie, she wouldn't want to care about the Jia family at all, but there was nothing she could do because the couple had chosen Jia Dongxu.
"Shazhu is not sensible enough!" Yi Zhonghai may have been hitting others with the moral stick for too long, and now it has hit himself on the head.
"What should we do now?" asked the aunt. They certainly couldn't just leave the Jia family alone.
Yi Zhonghai took another sip of wine and said, "Let's talk about it in two days. The Jia family won't starve to death anytime soon."
"Okay." The aunt didn't have any good ideas, so she could only listen to Yi Zhonghai.
Besides, Jia Zhang returned home dejected.
Jia Dongxu saw Jia Zhang ran out excitedly, but came back with her head down. He couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what's wrong? I just heard a lot of noise outside."
"......" Jia Zhang was silent.
After a long while, Jia Zhang sighed.
Then he said slowly: "Shazhu said that Huairu won't be needed to clean up the house for him anymore, and he won't give us any food."
"Buzz..." This scared both Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu.
"Mom, what happened?" Jia Dongxu asked hurriedly. Everything was fine when he was having dinner at Yi Zhonghai's house just now. How come such a thing happened after such a short while?
"How would I know what happened? I just saw Sha Zhu being pushed out of the house by your master's wife, and then your master's wife told me that Sha Zhu would no longer be in charge of our family." Jia Zhang still felt aggrieved. Recently, for the sake of food, she had not bullied Sha Zhu much.
"Just now Sha Zhu and I were drinking at my master's place and everything was fine. How come it became like this?" Jia Dongxu was also a little confused. Just now he had a couple of drinks with Sha Zhu and they were treating each other like brothers.
"You said Shazhu was also having dinner at Yi Zhonghai's house just now?" Jia Zhang suddenly asked loudly.
The loud voice startled Jia Dongxu.
However, Jia Dongxu nodded and said, "Yes, we were drinking together just now, and we were fine."
"Go, go quickly." Jia Zhang urged.
"Where are you going?" Jia Dongxu looked at Jia Zhang and remembered what happened one after another, feeling a little confused.
"What are you going to do? Go to your master's house and ask. Otherwise, we haven't provoked him, and he can just come out of your master's house and say he doesn't care about us." Jia Zhang also had moments of clarity, of course, only when she was plotting against Sha Zhu.
"Okay, I'll go ask."
Jia Dongxu did not dare to delay. He hurriedly put on his shoes and went out to Yi Zhonghai's house.
"Knock, knock, knock." There was a rapid knock on the door.
"Dongxu? Why are you here?" Yi Zhonghai was a little drunk at this time, so it was an old lady who came to open the door.
"Master's wife, I came over to ask what happened just now?" Jia Dongxu said straight to the point. Jia Dongxu was quite anxious, after all, this was related to the livelihood of the whole family.
The old lady looked back at the inner room, then pulled Jia Dongxu out of the door.
"Your master is drunk. Just now, Sha Zhu said a few unpleasant things about your family. Your master scolded him, and Zhuzi got angry." An aunt said in a low voice.
When Jia Dongxu heard this, he wondered who to blame. He definitely couldn't blame Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai still tried to protect him, but ended up making Sha Zhu angry.
"Okay, I understand, Master's wife. I'll go back first." After Jia Dongxu knew the whole story, he nodded helplessly and went home.
"Dongxu, how are you? What did your master say?"
As soon as Jia Dongxu entered the room, Jia Zhang's big face came over. Jia Dongxu was so scared that he took two steps back before he could see clearly Jia Zhang.
Jia Dongxu didn't say anything, he just took off his shoes and got on the kang.
"Hurry up and speak, Dongxu!" Jia Zhang became a little anxious when she saw that Jia Dongxu didn't say anything.
Jia Dongxu hesitated for a while before speaking.
"What could have happened? Shazhu cursed our family at Master's house, and then my master said a few words to him, and he didn't want to listen, and then he said he didn't care about our family."
"What did you say? That bastard Shazhu actually dared to scold our family!" Jia Zhang became anxious when she heard this. Who in this yard dared to scold her? She would scratch him to death.
Jia Dongxu was speechless when he saw Jia Zhang's expression. It didn't matter whether he should scold her or not. Now that she couldn't even eat, how could she have the mind to care about these things.
"Mom...!" Jia Dongxu shouted.
Seeing that Jia Dongxu was getting a little angry, Jia Zhang shut up.
For a moment, the Jia family's house fell silent.
"Dongxu, it's almost the end of the month again." Qin Huairu said in a low voice at this time.
Others may not know what’s going on at home, but Qin Huairu, who cooks every day, knows how to handle it. If she can hold on for a few more days, she’ll run out of food again.
"How much money is left in the family?" Jia Dongxu looked at Jia Zhangshi.
"A little bit." Jia Zhang said in a low voice.
"Can you hold on until noon?" Jia Dongxu asked.
"Almost." Jia Zhang said unhappily. You know, she originally wanted to hide the money and keep it for herself, but now she has to take it out to buy food.
"Then let's just hold on until noon." Jia Dongxu said helplessly.
"It's all Yi Zhonghai's fault. Just say a few words." Jia Zhang started to blame Yi Zhonghai again.
At this moment, Jia Zhang slapped her head.
"Dongxu, bring Banggeng to your master's house for dinner tomorrow." Jia Zhang said as a matter of course.
"Will my master be willing?" Jia Dongxu said reluctantly. Jia Dongxu still felt a little embarrassed.
"Who cares whether he is willing or not? If it weren't for him, Shazhu wouldn't have turned against me!" Jia Zhang said unreasonably.
"I..." Jia Dongxu hesitated and didn't want to go.
Jia Zhang made the decision directly: "It's settled!"
