Ma Hua had just finished getting ready and was about to ride her bike to her mother's for dinner when she heard a pitiful scream coming from the yard: "That damned bastard, he's got some nerve, trying to steal my stuff again! Does he want to die? Dongxu, come on up here!"
"This is unbearable! This is outrageous! Are they taking advantage of us, these orphans and widows? Old Jia, please take them away! Waaaaah!" Jia Zhangshi was still sound asleep in bed when Qin Huairu woke her up, telling her...
The coal and cabbages in the house were gone again. Jia Zhangshi immediately got dressed and looked towards the door. Sure enough, they were gone again. Thinking of this, Jia Zhangshi could no longer contain her anger and started cursing right there in the yard.
Ma Hua chuckled to himself, thinking, "Let them make a scene, let them make a scene, the more the merrier." Just as he stepped outside, he saw Bang Geng running from the middle courtyard to under the eaves of Liu Haizhong's house.
The stalk of the dog tumbled around under the eaves of Liu Haizhong's house for a moment, then shouted towards the courtyard, "Grandma, Grandma, come quick! Our things are here!"
Jia Zhangshi, who was still cursing in the middle courtyard, immediately ran angrily to the backyard after hearing Bang Geng's words. Following Bang Geng's finger, she saw that her things had indeed reappeared in Liu Haizhong's old bastard's house.
Jia Zhangshi was absolutely furious. What did Liu Haizhong mean by this? Did he think her family was easy to bully? He stole yesterday, and now he's doing it again today. Thinking of this, Jia Zhangshi rushed to Liu Haizhong's door.
"Knock knock knock knock," Jia Zhangshi banged on the door while cursing, "Liu Haizhong, don't hide in there and stay silent! I know you're home. You're so capable of stealing coal, but you're not so capable of opening the door! Open the door! Open the door!"
Liu Haizhong and his family were completely bewildered. What did Jia Zhangshi mean by this? They were already unhappy yesterday because they were inexplicably framed as thieves. What's going on? Now she's coming to cause trouble again early in the morning. Does she really think I, Liu Haizhong, am a pushover?
Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong simply threw on a coat and opened the door. When Jia Zhangshi saw Liu Haizhong, she became even angrier, pointing her finger at him and yelling, "Liu Haizhong, what do you mean? Aren't you going a bit too far?"
Liu Haizhong was also a little confused, but since Jia Zhangshi had come over and started yelling at him, how could he possibly lose? He immediately glanced at his second aunt, who promptly pushed Jia Zhangshi out and then yelled at her, "You old widow, what are you doing making such a racket so early in the morning?"
"Let me tell you, are you still not done? Don't push your luck. If I didn't pity you being a widow, I would have beaten you up already, believe me."
Jia Zhangshi stumbled from the push and almost fell. She couldn't take it anymore and lunged at her second aunt with her claws. If she didn't stand up for herself now, her family would be seen as pushovers and they'd be bullied in the future.
Thinking of this, Jia Zhangshi became even more ruthless, slashing her neck hard and leaving a bloody mark. The second aunt retaliated, slashing Jia Zhangshi across the face. Then the two women gripped each other's hair tightly.
Yi Zhonghai witnessed this scene and immediately scolded the two men: "What are you doing, fighting and cursing in the middle of the morning? Let go of each other right now."
Neither Jia Zhangshi nor the second aunt would let go. Yi Zhonghai glanced helplessly at Liu Haizhong: "Old Liu, what are you doing? You're the second eldest uncle in the courtyard, how can you lead a disturbance like this?"
Liu Haizhong glanced at Yi Zhonghai expressionlessly: "Old Yi, it's not that I'm not giving you face, it's just that Jia Zhangshi is too hateful. Who comes to someone's door and curses in the early morning? Does she really think my Liu family is extinct?"
Liu Hai thought to himself, "Pah! If it weren't for the fact that Jia Zhangshi is a woman, I would have done it already."
Yi Zhonghai was also extremely conflicted at this moment, and shouted directly: "Fight, fight, I don't care anymore, okay? You might as well kill each other, is it really worth it over such a small matter? Didn't I help you solve Jia Zhangshi's problem yesterday? What are you doing today!"
"Stop right now!" Yi Zhonghai snapped, his temper flaring. He was already annoyed by Ma Hua's attack yesterday, and Jia Zhangshi's actions had only fueled his anger, turning him from a previously easygoing person into a completely irritable one.
The onlookers were also startled; this was the first time they had seen Yi Zhonghai lose his temper in all these years. Jia Zhangshi and her second aunt were also frightened away by Yi Zhonghai's reprimands.
The second aunt threw the hair in her hand on the ground with disgust, "Pah, so oily."
"Jia Zhangshi, you speak first. What are you doing? Didn't we agree yesterday that it would be over?" Yi Zhonghai glared fiercely at Jia Zhangshi.
"Uncle, this isn't my mother-in-law's fault. Yesterday's matter was indeed resolved, but Uncle, you shouldn't be so bullying. We agreed on this yesterday, and you're stealing again today. What's wrong? Do you think we're easy to bully, a widow and her child?" Qin Huairu hurriedly stepped forward and cried out.
"What do you mean 'steal'? My whole family hasn't left the house since the meeting. Where would we steal from? I think it's clearly your family trying to extort money again," the second aunt said sarcastically.
"You, you, Second Uncle, I know you are a reasonable person and a respectable leader in our compound, but you can't bully people like this. Look, our things are under your eaves again." Qin Huairu knew that arguing with Second Aunt was useless, so she turned to look at Liu Haizhong.
At this moment, Liu Haizhong and his second aunt exchanged a glance, both dumbfounded. Yes, how did the Jia family's things get back here again? What's going on?
Liu Haizhong puffed out his big belly and coughed twice: "Old Yi, you know what kind of person I am. My whole family didn't leave the house after the meeting yesterday. How could I possibly do such a thing?"
