Chapter 44 An Unquiet Night

 There is only three entrances to the courtyard, which is not big at all. If you make a little noise, the whole courtyard can hear it.

In addition, the middle courtyard and the backyard are next to each other, and it is late at night. At this time, Xu Qing can clearly hear the movements in the middle courtyard.

The three little cats were sitting on the bench, close to the stove, with their feet soaked in the footbath. At this moment, they were like curious cats, staring and listening.

Xu Qing originally planned to wash his feet, so he poured cold water into the footbath in front of him. When he heard something happened in the yard, he went outside to check.

It was still cold in the courtyard, and the night seemed darker. When Xu Damao, Liu Haizhong, the second aunt, and the deaf old lady heard the noise, they all walked out of the house and headed towards the middle courtyard.

Because Xu Qing heated the kang in the house and the stove in the front room also heated the house, he unbuttoned the collar of his cotton-padded jacket while he was in the house.

At this time, I was blown by the cold wind outside the house, and my body felt chilly. I hurriedly stretched out my hand to fasten the buttons at the collar of my cotton-padded jacket, and followed the others to the middle courtyard.

As soon as he entered the middle courtyard, Xu Qing saw Yan Jiecheng from the third uncle's family in the front yard, running to the door of Jia's house to settle accounts with Jia Zhang.

Today, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang fell from the ladder while helping to clear snow from the Jia family's roof. Yan Jiekuang even broke his arm. As the eldest brother, Yan Jiecheng ran because he wanted to seek justice for his brother and ask for medical expenses.

However, Mrs. Jia Zhang was not a good person. When Yan Jiecheng came to the door, he stood at the door and cursed at the top of his voice.

"Yan Jiecheng, you are the one who got a thousand cuts, how dare you scold me?" Mrs. Jia Zhang glared, put her hands on her hips, and scolded: "Your brothers didn't pay attention and fell from the ladder. What does it have to do with me? You

What are you yelling at me?!"

"If you hadn't come to our house last night and begged my dad, would our two brothers have fallen if they climbed the ladder?"

Yan Jiecheng had an angry look on his face, his eyes were wide open, and the veins on his neck were bulging, and he was very angry with Jia and Zhang.

If the third aunt, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai and Silly Zhu hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed up and punched Jia and Zhang.

Although Yan Jiecheng always fights with Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang, brothers fight and fight, and they are brothers after all.

Today, her younger brother was kind enough to help Jia's family clear the snow and was injured. However, Jia Zhang opened her mouth and said that it had nothing to do with her. After the incident, she hid in the house without even visiting. How could Yan Jiecheng not be angry!

Xu Qing can understand Yan Jiecheng's mood at this moment, because he is also the eldest brother. Who can tolerate the bullying of his younger siblings?

It's just that such noise at this late night is not a big deal after all.

The aunt pulled Jia Zhang and asked her to say a few words. After all, she was in the wrong in this matter.

However, Jia and Zhang family were sarcastic and harsh. Seeing Yan Jiecheng, a junior, scolding him in front of him, his face felt dull. Ignoring the aunt's dissuasion, he jumped up, pointed at Yan Jiecheng and continued to yell.

"Yan Jiecheng, you are a bad boy, you are not a big or small thing! Your parents don't dare to talk to me like this, you come here and act wild, do you think I am easy to bully?!"

Mrs. Jia Zhang cursed a lot and was used to being arrogant in the courtyard. She didn't care about other people's opinions at all.

I thought that no one in the compound would dare to talk about her, but I didn’t know she was familiar with her. In fact, the people in the compound saw the orphans and widowers of the Jia family after Lao Jia’s death, and they felt very pitiful.

Last year, something happened to Jia Dongxu again, and everyone just didn't care about her.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Jia Zhang became even more aggressive and made trouble everywhere in the courtyard, making everyone hate her!

But considering the situation of the Jia family, the big guys in the courtyard could just tolerate it and ignore it.

But what Jia and Zhang did today is really chilling.

Xu Qing couldn’t stand it!

In any case, Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiefang fell down because they were helping to clear snow from the roof of Jia's house. As people with a conscience, no matter how poor their family is and how hard it is to open the pot, they go to visit empty-handed to express their feelings.

What will you say?

After all, they are all neighbors who live in the same compound. They meet each other without looking up. They all know how their lives are. Since things have happened, they should be remedied if they can and cannot compensate. As the steward of the compound, Yan Bugui

The third uncle is also a reasonable and sensible person, so he doesn’t mean to deliberately make things difficult.

Besides, it’s just a broken bone, it’s not a big deal. If we sit down and discuss a solution, the matter will end there.

But Jia Zhang, the living treasure in the courtyard, knew that she was being unreasonable. When she heard Yan Jiecheng running towards her, she stayed in the house and insisted on coming out to cause trouble, causing trouble for everyone in the courtyard.

Xu Qing has finally seen what a shrew is, and this is it!

The first uncle, Yi Zhonghai, turned to look at Jia Zhang, with a sullen face, and could not help but sternly reprimanded:

"Aunt Jia, please stop saying a few words!"

Liu Haizhong also walked out at this time, and together with the aunt, pushed Jia Zhang into the room.

Xu Qing ignored Jia and Zhang and walked to Yan Jiecheng to persuade him with Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai and the three aunts.

Living in a large courtyard, there are many people, and friction, estrangement, and awkwardness between each other are inevitable.

Situations like this often happen, and everyone usually has a tacit understanding to avoid unnecessary disputes and try to minimize major issues.

But what happened today happened too suddenly. The Yan Bugui family obviously meant well to help others, but they ended up in this situation.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, has been in the front yard and has not come over. Obviously, today's incident has made him very angry. It seems that he simply allowed his eldest son to make trouble with Jia Zhang in the yard.

Qin Huairu was so anxious that she was almost crying. While persuading her mother-in-law, she hurriedly ran to Yan Jiecheng to apologize to the third aunt and Yan Jiecheng.

Si Zhu looked on with sadness, but he couldn't tell Yan Jiecheng and the third aunt that it was the fault of the Jia family and the Jia Zhang family.

We can only try our best to persuade Yan Jiecheng and find a way to get Yan Jiecheng to return to the front yard.

........

More than half an hour later, Xu Qing, Sha Zhu and others finally persuaded Yan Jiecheng to return to the front yard.

However, Ms. Jia and Zhang still stood in the middle courtyard, unwilling to let go, as if she felt that she had done nothing wrong at all.

Returning to the middle courtyard from the front yard, Xu Qing glanced at Mrs. Jia Zhang and secretly felt that this Mrs. Jia Zhang was simply a fool!

Fortunately, the deaf old lady also came to the middle courtyard. Previously, Yan Jiecheng and Jia Zhang were noisy and did not understand the situation. Now, she understood what was going on and scolded Jia Zhang.

I was scolded and sent back to the house.

Everyone standing in the middle courtyard breathed a long sigh of relief, and then went back to their own rooms.
