Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

“I, Jia Zhangshi, have lived an upright and honest life. I am a magnanimous person. As the old lady said, why should I, a living person, argue with a dead person?”

Madam Jia knew she couldn't avoid this courtesy, since she was the junior. But she absolutely couldn't kowtow and offer incense to the deaf old lady.

She already had a solution to this problem, she said calmly.

"I can follow the proper etiquette, but I won't go through the full ceremony."

"My leg has just been set. If I do this full ceremony, I'm afraid I'll have to go straight back to the hospital."

"I'll just bow before the old lady's coffin to represent her!"

Yi Zhonghai and the others exchanged glances but said nothing more.

Jia Zhangshi walked into the old lady's room, and with Qin Huairu's help, she held three incense sticks and bowed to the portrait and urn of the deaf old lady.

After finishing, Qin Huairu was about to take the incense and put it in the incense burner, but was stopped by Jia Zhangshi.

"No need, I can do it myself. I'll also take this opportunity to say a few words to the old lady."

Jia Zhangshi came to the urn containing the deaf old lady's ashes and placed the incense sticks into the incense burner.

"Grandma, your departure has brought some peace and quiet, but it has caused me a lot of trouble."

"Now my leg is broken. Although it has been set, I can't use it much. It starts to hurt when I put too much effort into it."

"You better pray that I recover soon and live a peaceful life, otherwise, the day I die, I will definitely settle the score with you!"

After saying that, Madam Jia prepared to leave. As she turned around, she accidentally slipped a little.

Suddenly, a piercing pain shot up from his leg, and in the pain, he swayed towards the table and crashed into it.

Jia Zhangshi weighed over 150 jin (approximately 75 kg), and the table couldn't withstand the impact of her body, which caused the table to shake and tilt.

Upon seeing this scene, He Yuzhu immediately got up and ran into the mourning hall, but it was too late.

"don't want……"

The tabletop tilted after being hit, and the urn on top slid off the tabletop, landing on the ground with a loud thud.

After the urn landed, the lid flipped off, and a lot of gray powder was shaken out onto the ground.

Silence, a deathly silence.

Not only did He Yuzhu, who rushed into the mourning hall as soon as he saw the urn about to fall, fall silent, but even the people eating outside stopped eating.

Outside the mourning hall, Cao Xu, who had returned to push his bicycle, was also stunned. What the hell was going on?

To grind the bones to ashes?

Madam Jia must have a deep-seated hatred for the deaf old lady!

Xu Damao, who came back with Cao Xu, saw this scene and immediately shouted.

"The deaf old lady's urn has fallen to the ground, Sha Zhu, what are you standing there for? Pick it up quickly!"

This was originally a well-intentioned reminder, but when Cao Xu looked at Xu Damao, he felt that Xu was gloating.

"Oh my goodness!"

Sha Zhu rushed inside, knelt down, straightened the urn, and used his hands to scoop the ashes from the ground into the urn.

"Use this to sweep; you can't get it clean if you hold it in your hands."

With red-rimmed eyes, He Yuzhu looked up and saw Qin Jingru handing him a broom.

"Lao Yi, Lao Yi..."

Outside the mourning hall, Yi Zhonghai was quite excited to see the old lady's ashes fall to the ground. He stood up and walked towards the mourning hall, wanting to go forward and help.

But now he was powerless. As soon as he reached the door, his trembling legs gave way and he sat down on the ground after a shiver.

An older woman rushed to help him up, and Liu Haizhong and He Daqing, who were standing nearby, also stepped forward to assist.

Once everyone realized what was happening, the courtyard erupted in chaos, with discussions filling the air.

Cao Xu looked at the messy backyard and pushed his bicycle away alone.

"With such a filial son and grandson, the deaf old lady can rest in peace now."

Everyone at the scene was busy with the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai, and no one paid any attention to Jia Zhangshi, who was leaning against the corner.

Once the scene was mostly cleaned up, Qin Huairu stepped forward and helped her up.

"Qin Huairu, you unfilial thing, do you even know that I am your mother-in-law?"

"What does that deaf old woman, a dead person, have to do with you?"

"You ignore your husband's biological mother, your son's biological grandmother, and your own mother-in-law when they fall down, but you go and take care of a dead old woman."

"me……"

The more Jia Zhangshi thought about it, the angrier she became. Luckily, she lifted her injured leg when she was about to fall, otherwise she would have broken it again and suffered a lot.

Judging from her own feelings, it seems she just strained it and there's nothing seriously wrong. She'll probably be fine after some rest.

Qin Huairu stopped Jia Zhangshi from speaking and silently endured it, while He Yuzhu, standing to the side, was not having it.

"Zhang Cuihua, don't argue with me!"

"I don't care if it's because you deserved it, you knocked over the old lady's urn, and you still think you're right?"

"Let me tell you, if it weren't for the fact that it's the old lady's big day today, I would have slapped you!"

When Jia Zhangshi heard He Yuzhu say that she deserved it and even wanted to hit her, she immediately objected.

"Silly Zhu, you dare hit me?"

"Go ahead and hit me, hit me, hit me all you want!"

With a sharp crack, Jia Zhangshi felt a burning pain on her face, and she stared at He Yuzhu in disbelief.

You really dare to hit me?

"I'm going to the police station to report you. I'm going to get you arrested and sent to jail!"

He Yuzhu placed the old lady's ashes in a safe place, looking disdainful.

"You need to hurry up. Everyone in the yard heard it. You were the one who told me to hit you, not me who insisted on hitting you."

"Your request may seem strange, but I can't refuse you, so I'll have to reluctantly give you a slap."

“If you’re not satisfied, then go ahead and sue me. Everyone in the courtyard can testify for me. Don’t you all agree?”

A few days ago, Madam Jia thought that giving New Year's money had offended the whole courtyard, and now she has even scattered the old lady's ashes.

Under these circumstances, most people in the courtyard sided with He Yuzhu.

"Yes, we all heard it."

“I heard it too, and I can testify to that.”

"This is the first time I've ever heard of such a request. Grandma Banggeng, do you still need it? If so, I can help you!"

"Yes, yes, I have a strong hand, and I'm just as good as that idiot Zhu when it comes to beating people up."

Madam Jia waved her hand and addressed the crowd.

"Don't give me that nonsense. The fact that 883 boxes of the deaf old lady's ashes fell on the ground was an accident."

"If we really want to investigate, then it's the responsibility of the Yi family and the He family. What does it have to do with me?"

"If it weren't for that bastard Xu Damao from both families constantly forcing me to perform the ceremony, this kind of accident wouldn't have happened."

He Yuzhu was about to argue with him when Yi Zhonghai stopped him.

"Forget it, Sha Zhu, let's talk about this later. Let's get ready for the funeral."

He Yuzhu glanced at Qin Huairu beside him, then at Qin Jingru not far away, and pointed at Jia Zhangshi through gritted teeth.

"Alright, I'll settle this score with you when I get back!"

Jia Zhangshi said fearlessly.

"Let's settle this, who's afraid of who? If you don't settle this with me, I'll settle this with you."

"I'm going to the police station to report you right now. I'm going to accuse you of assaulting an elderly person and have you arrested!"

"Liu Haizhong said with a cold face."

“Mrs. Jia, the neighbors all know who is right and who is wrong in today’s events.”

"You should go home and rest, don't get involved."

Jia Zhangshi pouted.

"I……"

She had just uttered the word "I" when she was interrupted by a voice.

"Who wants to go to the police station to report this!"
