Ren Weiyong: "Forget it! What can a zombie like me do to save the world? I'd better stay in Renjia Town and cultivate honestly!"
Ying Zheng: "By the way, Mr. Ren, the Maoshan Sect said they were going to Japan to challenge them. Did they go?"
Ren Weiyong: "No! The Great Xia territory is in complete chaos right now, all sorts of demons and monsters are jumping out, and the Maoshan Sect is busy saving people everywhere, so they don't have the mind to deal with those cultivators from Fusang!"
After briefly glancing at the two cultivation techniques uploaded by Ren Weiyong, Xiao Shan realized they weren't very useful to him, so he ignored them.
That evening, at the Jia family's house.
Jia Zhangshi tossed and turned in bed.
She was not only in pain all over her body, but also itchy all over, which was extremely uncomfortable.
Looking at Qin Huairu sitting beside her, Madam Jia pleaded, "Huairu, give Mom a piece! I promise this is the last piece. I'll sleep peacefully after eating this one! Starting tomorrow, I won't eat a single piece."
Seeing Jia Zhangshi's condition, Qin Huairu felt a pang of sympathy and wanted to get some painkillers for her.
However, remembering what Director Wang had said during the day, Qin Huairu ultimately held back and did not give the medicine to Jia Zhangshi.
Besides, if Jia Zhangshi can't quit taking painkillers, she'll have to spend five yuan or even more every month to buy medicine, which is a bottomless pit!
With tears welling up in her eyes, Qin Huairu said to Jia Zhangshi, "Mom, just bear with it! Have you forgotten what Director Wang and the three old men said? If you can't quit at home, you'll be going to suffer in the neighborhood."
"Quarantine on the street is different from at home. I heard they lock you up in a dark room without food or water! Mom, just bear with it, it'll be fine in a couple of days!"
The thought of being locked in a dark room sent chills down Jia Zhangshi's spine.
So he looked at Qin Huairu and nodded, saying, "Huairu, I'll hold on a little longer!"
Unfortunately, Jia Zhangshi couldn't hold out for even two minutes before she was driven to plead with Qin Huairu again: "Huairu, please, I beg you, just give me one! Just give me two yuan from my pension next month, and I'll spend one yuan to buy one, okay?"
This time, Qin Huairu was truly moved!
However, considering that Jia Zhangshi is notorious for not keeping her word, she might say nicely now that she'll buy one piece for one yuan, but she'll definitely deny it after she eats it.
So Qin Huairu firmly said, "Mom, I can't give it to you! Giving it to you would be harming you, not helping you. Just bear with it!"
Seeing that her pleas were useless, Madam Jia Zhang turned hostile: "Qin Huairu, am I not your mother-in-law? Dongxu has only been gone for a few years, and this is how you treat your mother-in-law?"
"I can't live anymore! Dongxu, Lao Jia, come out and see! Qin Huairu is killing me! I feel terrible all over, like I'm about to die, and she won't give me any painkillers. She wants me dead!"
Suddenly, Jia Zhangshi's howling voice echoed from the quiet courtyard.
Upon hearing the sound, the families who had already gone to bed quickly got dressed, turned on their lights, and came out of their houses.
Xiao Shan also came out of his cultivation state, left his house, and came to the central courtyard.
When Xiao Shan arrived at the Intermediate People's Court, a large number of people had already gathered there.
Led by the three old men, everyone arrived at the Jia family's door.
Yi Zhonghai, who was leading the group, knocked on the Jia family's door: "Huai Ru, what's going on? Why is your sister-in-law screaming so pitifully in the middle of the night?"
Soon, the door opened, and Qin Huairu, her eyes red-rimmed, stood in the doorway: "Uncle, my mother..."
Before Qin Huairu could finish speaking, Jia Zhangshi scrambled out of the inner room.
As Jia Zhangshi arrived at the door, she interrupted Qin Huairu and yelled at Yi Zhonghai, "Uncle, you have to stand up for me! Qin Huairu wants to harm me, she wants me dead!"
"Dongxu, come up here and take a look! Your wife is so unfilial, she wants to make me suffer to death!"
Upon hearing what Jia Zhangshi said, Qin Huairu's tears immediately welled up: "Gentlemen, my mother-in-law wants to take painkillers every night. If I don't give them to her, she becomes like this!"
"Gentlemen, please help me think of a solution! I can't bear to see my mother-in-law like this!"
Chapter 209, Tie Jia Zhangshi up and throw her into the cellar! (Please subscribe!)
Looking at Qin Huairu, whose face was streaked with tears, Qin Jingru said, "Sister, during the day, my husband Da Mao came up with an idea to have you tie up Aunt Jia, but nobody listened to him."
"If we had tied Aunt Jia up, none of this would have happened tonight. Have you forgotten what kind of people those opium addicts were in the past?"
Hearing Qin Jingru's words, the three old men also felt that there was some truth to them.
If painkiller addiction is really like that of opium addicts, then Jia Zhangshi really needs to be tied up!
Seeing that the three old men were somewhat tempted, Jia Zhangshi became anxious: "Qin Jingru, shut your mouth! I shouldn't have let Huairu bring you out of the countryside in the first place, you filthy rotten thing!"
"Grandpas, Huairu, don't listen to her. I'm sure I can quit on my own, I don't need to be tied up!"
After a slight pause, Jia Zhangshi looked at the group ingratiatingly and said, "But could you please let me take a painkiller right now? I really can't take it anymore! Just one tonight, and I promise I won't take any more tomorrow. This is the last one!"
Hearing what Jia Zhangshi said, Xiao Shan laughed and said, "Aunt Jia, today is the last piece, I guess tomorrow we'll have to say it's the very last piece!"
"If you ask me, it's safest to notify the neighborhood committee! I believe that once we get there, Aunt Jia will definitely be able to quit her addiction properly, instead of howling and screaming like a banshee in the middle of the night like this!"
After saying that, Xiao Shan didn't wait for anyone's reaction and walked directly towards the front yard, seemingly preparing to go directly to the neighborhood office.
Seeing Xiao Shan's actions, the three old men almost simultaneously blurted out, "Xiao Shan, wait, you can't go to the street!"
They had assured Director Wang during the day that Jia Zhangshi could quit at home.
Tonight, we'll go tell the people in the neighborhood that they can't control Jia Zhangshi anymore.
Isn't this a slap in the face to those three old men?
How can Director Wang trust these three old men to manage the affairs of the courtyard in the future?
Jia Zhangshi then directly cursed at Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, I think you're deliberately trying to make things difficult for me!"
"Aunt Jia, once you successfully quit taking painkillers, you'll understand that I'm doing this for your family's good!" Xiao Shan didn't take Jia Zhangshi's words to heart. "Once you quit taking painkillers, your family will have five yuan less to spend each month. Use that five yuan to improve your meals, wouldn't that be wonderful?"
Liu Haizhong nodded: "Xiao Shan is right. In order for Jia Zhangshi to successfully quit, we still have to tie him up!"
As he spoke, Liu Haizhong said to his neighbors, "Come on, young men, let's tie up Jia Zhangshi with ropes."
Upon hearing Liu Haizhong's words, four or five young people immediately stood up.
Liu Guangtian even ran home and found a hemp rope.
Jia Zhangshi's sharp tongue has offended many people; which young man in the courtyard hasn't been talked about behind her back?
So now that they have Liu Haizhong's instructions, they naturally won't be polite to Jia Zhangshi.
Several men tied up Jia Zhangshi with hemp rope, completely ignoring her tantrums and curses.
Seeing that scolding the young people didn't work, Madam Jia Zhang started scolding Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, are you dead?! You just watched your mother-in-law being tied up without saying a word? You unfilial and wicked woman, our Dongxu must have been blind to marry you..."
Hearing Jia Zhangshi's scolding, Qin Huairu shed tears of grievance.
She's sacrificed so much for this family over the years, and now her mother-in-law is actually accusing her of being unfilial!
Listening to Jia Zhangshi's incessant cursing, Xiao Shan went straight home and grabbed a rag.
After gagging Jia Zhangshi with a rag, Xiao Shan laughed and said, "Now it's quiet!"
"Xiaoshan, how could you do this?" Yi Zhonghai frowned as he looked at Jia Zhangshi, whose mouth was gagged.
Xiao Shan spread his hands and said helplessly, "Uncle, if Aunt Jia keeps making such a fuss, she might get caught by the night patrol. Then we won't even need to report it; the neighborhood committee will have to come over!"
Upon hearing Xiao Shan's words, Yi Zhonghai shut his mouth.
If the night patrolmen had overheard this, Jia Zhangshi would probably have been taken directly to the street for drug rehabilitation.
When the time comes, those three old men will still leave Director Wang with the impression that they are incompetent!
Seeing that Yi Zhonghai had shut up, Xiao Shan continued, "Judging from Aunt Jia's condition, I think we shouldn't let her go back inside. With all this commotion, the three children probably won't be able to get any sleep."
As he spoke, Xiao Shan glanced at Qin Huairu and said, "Why don't we put her in the cellar? Sister-in-law, you go and prepare a quilt for her. Anyway, she won't get cold in this weather. We can let her out tomorrow when the effects of the medicine wear off."
Qin Huairu couldn't be more happy!
With Jia Zhangshi's restless nature, let alone the three children, even she herself wouldn't be able to get any sleep.
However, due to her image as a dutiful daughter, she couldn't say these words.
Not only can't they say it, they also have to stop Xiaoshan.
So Qin Huairu sighed and looked at Xiao Shan, saying, "Xiao Shan, my mother-in-law has already suffered enough. I really can't bear to put her in the cellar, and I'm not at ease with her!"
"Let's just leave her at home. I can take care of her nearby, and at most she'll just get a few more scoldings!"
Seeing that Qin Huairu was still trying to maintain her image of filial piety, Xiao Shan naturally indulged her: "Sister-in-law, you're right! You're so filial, you'd probably go and take care of Aunt Jia even if she were put in the cellar. You're the most filial mother-in-law in our neighborhood; no one else is as filial to their own parents as you are!"
"However, this matter still needs to be decided by the three gentlemen. I'm just offering a suggestion!"
Qin Huairu was a little dumbfounded. She didn't expect Xiao Shan to say something like asking her to go to the cellar to take care of Jia Zhangshi.
Originally, no one had expected this, but now that Xiaoshan has said this, everyone feels that there is some truth to it.
Looking at everyone's eyes, Qin Huairu knew that she had shot herself in the foot this time!
The three old men exchanged glances, and Yi Zhonghai stepped forward and said, "Indeed, we can't let Jia Zhangshi sleep at home, otherwise the three children and Huairu won't be able to sleep with her. I think it's fine to put Jia Zhangshi in the cellar; she won't get cold in this weather."
"If Huairu wants to go and take care of them, we won't stop you from showing your filial piety!"
Although Qin Huairu was unwilling, she could only bite the bullet and say, "Uncle, and everyone else, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my mother-in-law and make sure she doesn't suffer any grievances in the cellar."
Yi Zhonghai nodded in satisfaction; this was the filial Qin Huairu he had his eye on.
Chapter 210, Jia Zhangshi's Leg Broken! (Please Subscribe!)
Looking at Jia Zhangshi, who was still tied up by several young men, Yi Zhonghai said, "Alright, loosen the ropes binding you, old sister-in-law!"
"Uncle, the ropes binding Aunt Jia can't be loosened!" Liu Guangtian said upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's words. "It took us several of us a lot of effort to tie her up. If we loosen them, your wife probably won't be able to keep an eye on her even in the cellar!"
Yi Zhonghai compared Qin Huairu's and Jia Zhangshi's figures, sighed, and said, "Alright then, let's keep them tied up like this for now!"
"Huai Ru, go get a quilt and put it in the cellar, don't let your sister-in-law get cold." Yi Zhonghai assigned tasks to everyone. "Guang Tian, you guys help out and get your Aunt Jia into the cellar!"
Qin Huairu nodded, went back into the house to get the bedding, and laid it out in the cellar first.
Looking at Jia Zhangshi, whose legs were even tied up, Liu Guangtian said to the other young men, "Gentlemen, let's lift her up!"
The young men nodded and together lifted Jia Zhangshi up, heading towards the cellar.
On the way to the cellar, a young man exclaimed, "This Aunt Jia is heavy! I think the pigs slaughtered for the New Year in the countryside weigh at most this much!"
“Yes!” another young man chimed in. “Sister-in-law Jia always says her family is struggling, but I don’t think they are struggling at all! Apart from Second Uncle, Aunt Jia is the most important person in our neighborhood.”
Hearing someone mention his father, Liu Guangtian became displeased: "How can they be the same? My dad does manual labor, and if he doesn't gain weight, he can't do it! Unlike Aunt Jia, who stays at home all day and is still so fat. I bet all of the Jia family's money goes into Aunt Jia's belly!"
I have to say, Liu Guangtian's words were quite sarcastic!
Hearing their words, Madam Jia was naturally quite angry.
However, at this moment her mouth was gagged, and she could not speak. She could only twist her fat body haphazardly to express her dissatisfaction.
Given Jia Zhangshi's physique, her strength was naturally considerable.
She suddenly twisted, and the young people lost their grip.
With a thud, Jia Zhangshi fell directly to the ground.
Jia Zhangshi felt a sharp pain in her right leg.
The pain made her open her mouth wide, and the rag fell out of her mouth.
After the rag fell out, Jia Zhangshi screamed in agony: "Ah! It hurts! My leg is broken! My leg is broken!"
"I'm not going to live, my leg is broken! There's no good person in this yard!"
"Yi Zhonghai, you heartless bastard, are you trying to torture me to death so that Bang Geng can take care of you in your old age? You heartless bastard, you deserve to die a horrible death!"
"Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui, you bunch of heartless bastards! Old Jia, Dongxu, hurry up and take these scoundrels away. If they live any longer, they'll drive this old woman crazy!"
"Xu Damao, you're the worst one in this yard. No wonder you can't have children and can only end up like Yi Zhonghai, childless!"
"Xiao Shan, you're no better than me!"
……
Madam Jia cursed everyone in the courtyard, which infuriated everyone who heard it.
Just then, Qin Huairu, who had already laid out the quilt in the cellar, came out and asked Jia Zhangshi, who was lying on the ground groaning, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Madam Jia glared fiercely at Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, you heartless woman, you just want to torment me to death so you can find a bachelor to marry again!"
"Let me tell you, don't even think about it! You were born a member of the Jia family, and you'll die a member of the Jia family!"
Although Qin Huairu felt extremely wronged, she still said to Yi Zhonghai, "Uncle, please help me take a look. What's wrong with my mother?"
Although Yi Zhonghai's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he still suppressed his anger and walked over to check Jia Zhangshi's leg.
Then it was discovered that Jia Zhangshi's right leg did indeed appear to be broken!
