The Great Era of Siheyuan

"The dishes have all been served, so what's wrong with ordering a little more?"

Li Wenqiang knew from the look on Sha Zhu's face that he wanted to take revenge on him, and he wasn't afraid of him. He just wanted to see how he looked like a villain who had succeeded. He probably did the same to those he disliked in the canteen of the steel mill!

"What's wrong? There are people behind us. What's wrong? If everyone is as unruly as you, wouldn't the whole thing be in chaos? Get out of the way quickly and stop making trouble here!"

Sha Zhu looked at him with a sneer.

If it was someone else, he would have agreed, but Li Wenqiang? Don’t even think about it!

"Silly Zhu, alright, you are noble, you follow the rules, you are amazing, fine, I will listen to you!"

Li Wenqiang secretly swallowed his anger and looked at him with a fake smile. Although this was against the rules, it was in line with human nature. It was common for people to go to the stove to get food when there was no room for a seat at the banquet. He also understood that Sha Zhu was deliberately trying to intimidate him.

"Good to know. Behave yourself from now on, or I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"

Sha Zhu sneered, his eyes full of pride.

The bickering between the two attracted the attention of Jia Zhang who was standing nearby. When she saw Li Wenqiang, her face suddenly darkened.

"Why are you here? You are not welcome in my house. How dare you eat and drink here for free? If I were you, I would go out and kill myself by hitting a tree. I would not even feed my food to the dog. Get out of here now!"

Jia Zhang came over and looked at him angrily. He wouldn't even lend her a house, so how could he have the nerve to eat at her house?

"Ms. Jia Zhang, you said this! Don't worry, since you don't agree, I will definitely not shamelessly eat your family's food!"

Li Wenqiang poured the rice back into the wooden barrel and then scooped out the sorghum rice in the bowl grain by grain.

"Mom, what are you doing? Guests are welcome. You shouldn't chase them away like this, no matter what!"

Qin Huairu, who was standing by, saw this and came over to try to persuade her mother-in-law.

Jia Zhang's eyes turned cold and she looked at her gloomily.

"Why, Dongxu just left, so my words are no longer effective? Do I still need your approval for anything I do in the future?"

"No, no! That's not what I meant!"

After hearing this, Qin Huairu hurriedly denied it. If someone heard such words, she would be regarded as a bad woman.

"Calm down, my dear in-laws! Calm down! Huairu, why don't you apologize to your mother-in-law? Look how angry she is!"

When Qin Huairu's father saw that Jia Zhang was angry, he quickly pulled her to apologize to Jia Zhang. Although he didn't know what happened between the two of them, no matter what, in the eyes of their older generation, it is inappropriate for a daughter-in-law to talk back to her mother-in-law.

"I-I'm sorry!"

After hearing what her father said, Qin Huairu also apologized in tears.

"Humph! From now on, just listen to what I say. Do you hear me?"

Jia Zhang said coldly.

Qin Huairu shrank her neck and dared not say a word.

The people eating at the banquet stopped grabbing food when they saw this scene, and watched the excitement silently without saying a word. They knew everything about the relationship between Li Wenqiang and the Jia family, and they knew that there would be another quarrel when they saw this scene.

Li Wenqiang took advantage of Jia Zhang's rage to scrape the bowl clean, then lifted it up to show everyone.

"Everyone, look carefully. I came to offer condolences, but the Jia family didn't welcome me. This is not because I, Li Wenqiang, don't follow the rules. People should have dignity, and trees should have bark. If they don't agree, I will naturally not be embarrassed to eat this meal. You see, I didn't touch a grain of the Jia family's rice. I returned all of it. Third uncle, please return the gift money to me. In addition, is it okay to take back the rice I just brought?"

Li Wenlong's gaze was as cold as ice. He had only agreed to the banquet out of consideration for the neighbors, but he did not expect to suffer such humiliation.

He secretly swore in his heart that he would never let the Jia family have an easy time, including those people in the courtyard who offended him.

"Jia Zhang, what are you doing? I invited Li Wenqiang here. What do you mean by driving him away?"

When Yan Bugui saw Li Wenqiang asking him for money, his face looked very ugly. He was the one who hired the person, but in the end he was driven away. Isn't this a slap in his face?

"Old man, who asked you to invite him? Don't you know the relationship between our family and him?"

Jia Zhang said arrogantly.

"You-you are simply unreasonable! Vixen!, you are a vixen!"

Yan Bugui was so angry that he started cursing.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, I have to say something to you. You are wrong. It is only natural for Old Yan to invite Li Wenqiang to dinner. There is no big conflict between you two, right? It is just a matter of borrowing a house. How can you not let him have dinner? Li Wenqiang, don't be impulsive. It is just a small conflict. It will be fine after we talk it out. Come, sit next to me and eat with peace of mind!"

After Liu Haizhong finished speaking, he pulled Li Wenqiang and walked towards him.

Li Wenqiang didn't move at all. It didn't matter if he didn't eat this kind of food given out of pity. He wouldn't starve to death if he didn't eat this meal. There was still a long time to live, so he had to have fun with the Jia family!

"Second uncle, stop talking. It doesn't matter if you don't eat this meal! Third uncle, please return the money! Although one dollar is not much, I can at least go out and cook a dish, don't you think?"

The people around were a little surprised to hear that Li Wenqiang actually gave a one-dollar gift.

They basically give three or two cents, and fifty cents at most is considered a lot. How could they give so much?

Seeing that things had come to this point, Yan Bugui felt embarrassed to continue persuading him, so he took out a dollar from the gift bag next to him and handed it over.

"Since both of your families have come to this, I will not go easy on you, so as to avoid making myself a nobody. Keep the money and see if it is worth it!"

"Just one piece, thank you! There's also a bowl of rice, so I can help myself!"

After Li Wenqiang took the gift money, he took the bowl and scooped out a bowl of rice from the wooden basin next to him. Seeing that it was almost the same as before, he looked at Jia Zhang with satisfaction.

"Mrs. Jia Zhang, we'll see what happens next! Sha Zhu's dishes were cooked well today. It's a pity that I didn't get to eat at Jia Dongxu's table. I hope I can have a chance to eat at your house next time. Then I'll give you a big red envelope! Hahahaha!"

After saying this, Li Wenqiang laughed a few times and then returned home without looking back.

Only children would say harsh words. He never takes revenge by verbal fights. What's the use of cursing? He must take revenge physically. Just wait and see!

Jia Zhang watched the gift money being taken out of Yan Bugui's hand, feeling a little distressed. This dollar was enough for a banquet for four or five people, and her heart was bleeding.

"You little bastard, you dare to curse me? Just wait, I'm going to make you pay!"

When Jia Zhang heard this, she was so angry that she wanted to settle the score with him. What about the next banquet? Wasn't this a curse that more people in her family would die? Who could accept such a curse?

"Okay, Zhang Cuihua, are you going to make a fuss? Do you have to make a big fuss before you're satisfied? The old lady is still here!"

At this time, Yi Zhonghai, who was sitting on the side, spoke.

Looking at the farce in front of him, he felt very disgusted. It was just a meal, what did it matter whether he ate it or not? Why was he so fussy about it?

Now that Jia Dongxu is gone, he has to think carefully about what to do next. Sha Zhu is a very good candidate. His elders are gone and he has a decent job. Next, he has to find a way to make Sha Zhu accept him.

"Since the master has spoken, I won't bother with him. Humph, he's lucky!"

Jia Zhang snorted coldly, completely forgetting that Sha Zhu was beaten yesterday.

As Li Wenqiang left, everyone returned to the situation just before and started scrambling for food frantically, as if nothing had happened before.
