Chapter 56: A Harmful Husband and a Harmful Son
Chen family.
Chen Jianye naturally heard what Jia Zhang said outside.
He doesn't care.
In his eyes, Jia Zhang was a dead person.
The specific time to take action depends on the timing and you must not get yourself into trouble.
The Chen family was frying food in their house, and the smell of frying oil and water slipped out through the window.
"Hey, where does this fragrance come from, Silly Zhu, what delicious food are you hiding secretly?"
At the table in the middle courtyard, an old man who was eating suddenly shouted.
Soon, everyone smelled the fragrance in the air.
It's definitely the aroma of fried meat.
How greedy.
Look at the potatoes, cabbage, and rice on the table.
What the hell.
"I didn't hide it. Just today, Mrs. Jia asked me to buy two taels of meat, and I used it all."
Sha Zhu responded loudly to prove his innocence.
Qin Huairu gave Sha Zhu a reproachful look.
Now everyone knows that the Jia family hosted eight tables of banquets and only bought two taels of meat.
Silly Zhu chuckled.
I secretly thought that Sister Qin’s eyes were so beautiful.
"It came from the Chen family's house."
"Chen Jianye is eating a big meat dish in the house."
"No wonder he didn't attend the banquet hosted by the Jia family."
Everyone soon discovered the source of the fragrance and started talking about it.
The aroma of the meat dishes made the vegetarian dishes in my mouth taste like wax.
"If you ask me, the Jia family only bought two taels of meat, which is really too little."
"It's not that great. There are eight tables."
"We can come to the Jia family's banquet to give them face and to send Jia Dongxu off for the last time. Is this how the Jia family treats us?"
Some people were whispering to the people at the same table.
The sounds were not loud, but when they came together, Jia Zhangshi heard the three corpses jump up in anger, and stood up and shouted: "In addition to the two taels of meat, I also asked Sha Zhu to buy eight eggs!"
"I did buy eight eggs."
Sha Zhu shouted loudly: "I spent all of it on the banquet. I didn't keep any of it."
"There are eight tables, but you only prepared eight eggs. Who will eat them?"
"That's right. When the Chen family held a banquet, there were at least six eggs on each table!"
"Everyone come and see Jia Dongxu off for the last time. Look at what you did. It's really outrageous."
Several old men shouted unhappily.
"Eat, eat, eat. All you do is eat. Are you here to send my Dongxu off, or are you here to eat?"
"I haven't even said that your gifts are too little. The gift money for the eight tables is just over ten dollars. Who gave the least? I'll check it out later."
"I don't know how you have the nerve to sit here and eat!"
Jia Zhang roared loudly, drowning out the voices of dissatisfaction from everyone else.
Snapped!
Someone threw his chopsticks on the table and left the table angrily: "Don't eat it."
Snapped!
One has two.
The second person who threw down his chopsticks and left the table stood up.
Jia Zhang's attitude made many people extremely angry.
Although most people think that the dead are the most important, they will endure it if they can.
But there are always people with bad tempers who don’t indulge the Jia family.
"Hey, everyone, please don't worry, uncle, please help me say a few words."
Qin Huairu quickly stood up and comforted everyone.
"Everyone, sit down and eat your meal peacefully."
"We attended the banquet hosted by the Jia family mainly to send Jia Dongxu off for the last time. Everything else is secondary."
"Sister-in-law of the Jia family, you should also be less talkative. If everyone else leaves, will you keep all the food for yourself?"
Yi Zhonghai stood up and shouted.
Everyone sat down, and even if they were unhappy, they just grumbled a few words.
Jia Zhang sat on the bench with an unhappy look on her face.
She really thought so.
Anyone who gives a few cents as a gift should get out of here right away.
The Jia family can take the leftover food home and eat it slowly.
Smelling the aroma of meat and vegetables coming from the Chen family, eating the bland meals.
Everyone had a hard time eating this meal.
Jia Zhang was so greedy that she cursed Chen Jianye's ancestors for eighteen generations in her heart.
After Chen Jianye finished his meal, he came out with an enamel basin to wash the dishes.
"Chen Jianye, you are such a heartless person!"
"If you don't attend the banquet hosted by our family and don't help our family, I won't say anything to you."
"You even deliberately cooked a big meat dish to ruin the feast I was hosting. Why don't you just go die!"
Jia Zhang saw the opportunity and jumped up and started cursing.
"Haha, I eat like this every day. Everyone in the compound knows it."
"You yourself are reluctant to spend money and refuse to give your son a grand funeral, and you are blaming me?"
Chen Jianye laughed sarcastically.
"That's your problem. You know that my Jia family is setting up a banquet, but you don't know how to be more restrained?"
Jia Zhang made specious arguments.
"Hey, old lady Jia, have you ever thought that your own problems are bigger?"
"You are unlucky in marriage and have sent away two generations of the Jia family's able-bodied men. Others are embarrassed to say this, so I will show you a way."
"If you want the Jia family to be well, you might as well commit suicide and go to accompany your son. As long as you are in the Jia family, the Jia family will not be well."
Chen Jianye was too lazy to defend and went straight to the offensive card.
"Chen Jianye, I'm going to fight you!"
Jia Zhang was completely defeated and left the table to fight Chen Jianye.
"Hey, come here."
Chen Jianye put the enamel basin in his hand on the ground and hooked his finger at Jia Zhang.
Many guests who came to the banquet got up from the table and held Jia Zhang's hand.
"Chen Jianye, go wash the dishes quickly."
Yi Zhonghai shouted with a dark face.
"Jianye, today is the day to see Jia Dongxu off, so please be patient."
Liu Haizhong also persuaded.
"If Old Lady Jia hadn't scolded me first, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to her."
"Old lady Jia, remember, there is still a man in your family. As long as you live, you will only harm him."
Every word Chen Jianye said was heart-wrenching.
Pick up the enamel basin and leave.
After he made such a fuss, everyone hurried to eat.
After finishing the meal, everyone left.
Jia Zhang asked Qin Huairu and Banggeng to clean up the unfinished food on the table.
By this time, Chen Jianye had already washed the dishes and went back to the steel mill to continue working.
"Sister-in-law Jia, please leave me some leftovers from two tables."
Yan Fugui couldn't sit still anymore and shouted quickly.
Jia Zhang ignored him completely.
Leave a fart.
Yan Fugui was too embarrassed to continue shouting.
If the boss is unwilling to give it, he, as the gift bookkeeper, cannot force it.
After finishing the meal, Yan Fugui found Jia Zhangshi and handed her the gift book and the gift money he had collected: "Sister-in-law Jia, the money and records of your family's gift money for the banquet are all here."
"Row."
Jia Zhang took it, quickly found a table, opened the gift book and settled the bill.
Yan Fugui pursed his lips and coughed twice.
Jia Zhang didn't move.
Yan Fugui had no choice but to cough twice more vigorously.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? If you feel unwell, go somewhere else. Don't cough in front of me. You might infect me."
Jia Zhang looked disgusted.
"No, sister-in-law of the Jia family, shouldn't you express something?"
Yan Fugui was helpless.
After the banquet was over and the gift money was handed over, the host gave Mr. Li Bu two packs of cigarettes.
I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Li Bu for his hard work.
This is an unwritten rule.
But Jia Zhang didn't mention this at all, so Yan Fugui had to bring it up himself.
The Jia family had cleaned up the leftovers from the table and didn't leave any for him.
If you don't even give him two packs of cigarettes, then he's taking advantage of it.
