After a long time, Sha Zhu reacted.

"Look, look at it all, what does Zhang Zhiqiang mean to him? He has no love at all."

"If you ask me, we should all unite and drive this kind of person out of the courtyard."

Sha Zhu jumped up and down and said that now that Zhang Zhiqiang was gone, Sha Zhu felt that he was able to do it again. When Zhang Zhiqiang was around, he didn't even dare to fart.

"That's enough, isn't it messy enough?"

Yi Zhonghai scolded and felt a little regretful.

If I had known earlier, I would not have looked for Zhang Zhiqiang. It would have been much better to look for Xu Damao. Xu Damao would definitely not dare to refuse him.

Now that it’s in this state, no one will want to buy it anymore.

"Everyone, don't just stand there. If anyone wants to buy couplets, just come up and buy them."

Yi Zhonghai shouted, thinking that if he made one last effort, maybe someone would be willing to buy it.

"I'm still cooking at home, I have to go back and take a look."

"Why isn't my brat getting up yet? No, I'm going to beat him up."

"Hey, wait for me, let's talk it over nicely, don't hit the child."

"I'm planning to pack up and go back home today. Let's go."

…………

Everyone had their own reasons. Soon there was no one at the Jia family's door. Only Yi Zhonghai, Sha Zhu and the Jia family were left. He Yushui had already gone home. Standing here, the more he looked at them, the more upset he felt. It was better to out of sight, out of mind.

"Ouch~ow~ow~"

"You are all bullying our Jia family. Look, I can't survive anymore~"

When Jia Zhang saw the current situation, she was suddenly overwhelmed with grief and sat on the ground crying loudly.

This time she didn't dare to summon Lao Jia and Jia Dongxu. After all, it was too dangerous. She had just come out and was not so stubborn.

"Okay, stop crying. Is this my fault?"

Yi Zhonghai scolded. He was already annoyed and irritable, and Jia Zhang was howling like a pig. She was deliberately trying to make things worse for him.

An angry Yi Zhonghai was still quite scary. Jia Zhang didn't dare to cry anymore and just stared at Yi Zhonghai with wide eyes.

"Uncle, what should we do about this?"

Qin Huairu said aggrievedly.

She paid for the ink and paper, and now only Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai are willing to pay, which is not enough.

Zhang Zhiqiang didn't earn a dollar, not even enough to cover the cost, which was enough to make her feel bad.

"There's nothing I can do. I'll keep the things for now, just in case they come in handy."

"I'll go back first."

After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he prepared to go back. He had offended Zhang Zhiqiang again today, and he didn't know how to ease the relationship between the two families. Yi Zhonghai felt like he was regretting it to death.

Qin Huairu was a little panicked when she saw that Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to take care of their family. This was not okay. As an old man, how could he not take care of the residents in the yard?

Before Qin Huairu could speak, Sha Zhu couldn't help but speak out.

"Uncle, this won't do. The Jia family is so pitiful. You have to help them, right?"

Sha Zhu said as a matter of course, thinking that what he had done to persuade Yi Zhonghai was a very correct thing. This was all Yi Zhonghai's teaching to him, that one should not be too selfish and should not only care about oneself.

Yi Zhonghai didn't say anything. He just glared at Sha Zhu, the brainless guy, and then continued walking towards home.

"This……"

Shazhu was a little dumbfounded. What did this mean? He didn't say anything wrong, so why would an old man be like this?

"Thank you, Zhuzi. You and Master Yi have done enough to help our Jia family."

"You should go back first, we won't sell this couplet anymore."

Qin Huairu said pitifully that she didn't want to sell it anymore, but she didn't intend to return the money to Sha Zhu.

"Sister Qin, don't be too sad. It's because they don't know the quality of the work. I think it's well written."

Sha Zhu comforted her and wanted to pat Qin Huairu on the shoulder, but when he saw Jia Zhang watching her eagerly, he finally gave up the idea.

"Then Sister Qin, I'm going to go back first. Call me if you have anything else."

Seeing that everyone had left, Sha Zhu felt it was not appropriate for him to stay here alone, so he said goodbye to Qin Huairu.

After Qin Huairu agreed, Sha Zhu also left.

"Huai Ru, why did you just let Sha Zhu go like that? At least let him buy another ten or twenty pairs."

Jia Zhang came over and complained. In her opinion, Sha Zhu was a big villain who was just sucking blood from the Jia family. Now her family was willing to give him the couplet, so Sha Zhu should feel grateful.

"Mom, you think Zhuzi is stupid. The couplet written by Banggeng is not good at all."

Qin Huairu said unhappily that this idea was proposed by Jia Zhang, but now she didn't make any money and instead lost 70 cents. Who can she complain to?

Moreover, Zhang Zhiqiang also made it clear that he did not want to have anything to do with the Jia family, which made the Jia family's already shabby reputation even worse. Qin Huairu knew that in the future, there would probably be even fewer people in the courtyard who would care about the Jia family.

"Isn't that stupid?"

Jia Zhang tilted her head and asked back. In her opinion, Shazhu was the dumbest one. He had no brains and no memory. He was simply a natural candidate to be plotted against.

"Forehead."

Qin Huairu was silent. What should she say? The fact that Sha Zhu had this nickname indicated a lot of problems. He must be stupid. However, Qin Huairu still felt that Sha Zhu would not suffer this loss.

After all, she had always been successful in asking Sha Zhu to borrow money in the past, but the recent times had been full of twists and turns, and Sha Zhu seemed unwilling to lend her money anymore.

"Let's not talk about this for now, Mom. What are we going to do with the remaining things?"

Qin Huairu looked at the pile of things on the table in distress.

Now that the couplets cannot be sold, these have become waste paper. Qin Huairu had no idea of ​​letting Banggeng practice calligraphy. How could his family afford to let him practice calligraphy with such expensive things?

"If you ask me, who should I ask?"

Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu, as if she was not the one who wanted to do this in the first place.

"Mom, give me my money. It's fifteen cents."

Banggeng came over and said that he had just seen it all and it was sold for a total of thirty cents.

Logically speaking, he could get 1.5 cents, although it was not a few dollars as he had imagined, but 1.5 cents was not bad. Banggeng felt quite satisfied. 1.5 cents was enough to buy a bowl of shredded pork noodles outside.

"Go away, what money? I spent another dollar on materials."

Qin Huairu said impatiently that if she had known earlier, she would have just exchanged some peanuts for a pair of couplets from Yan Bugui. It would not be like now, where she lost both the wife and the army.

"No, that's what I earned from writing. You said you would give it to me, so give it to me now."

Bang Geng got anxious when he heard this. How could he not give the money? He immediately went over and tried to take the money out of Qin Huairu's pocket.

"Why don't you listen to me, kid? I told you to ask for money, I told you to ask for money."

"Crack~crack~"

Qin Huairu was already annoyed, and seeing the child being so disobedient, she couldn't help it and slapped Banggeng hard on the butt a few times.

"Ah~ah~"

In winter, people wear thick clothes, so the beatings didn't hurt, but he felt wronged. They didn't get paid for the work and they beat him. Banggeng cried loudly out of grievance.

"You still dare to cry?"

Qin Huairu glared at him and was about to hit him again.

"Alright, alright, why are you getting mad at a kid?"

Jia Zhang protected the stick behind her. This was the pillar of the Jia family. What would she do if Qin Huairu broke it?
