Courtyard House: The eldest son of the He family marries a woman who brings him good fortune.

Page 217

Is she the kind of person who lives a practical life?

Is she even cut out to be someone's wife?!

What angered her even more was...

All these years, she hasn't given birth to a single child for the Jia family.

“If you were a good person, you wouldn’t have been married into this family for so many years and not even given us a child.”

"What's the point of getting a wife? The purpose of getting a wife is to carry on the family line. If you can't even do that right, how dare you call yourself our family's wife?"

"If you're so capable, give me a child right now, and I promise to take care of you like a great-grandmother, providing you with the best food and drink."

Qin Huairu got angry as soon as she heard this.

Although she also coveted the He family's daughter.

He Wenwen can speak now, and every time she sees her, she calls her Aunt Huairu. Her little voice is so cute.

But what she envied even more was that this was He Hongyang's daughter.

That's why she has fair and delicate skin, a round face, and is chubby.

She was pampered like a little princess by her family.

If this child had been born into the Jia family, he would have starved to the bone.

If she had given birth to a daughter, perhaps Madam Jia would not have known how to treat this granddaughter.

"You still want children? Ask yourselves honestly, if you had children, could you afford to raise them?"

"Given your family's circumstances and the shameless attitude of you and your son, you should just be childless!"

"You want me to have your family's child? Dream on!"

This directly crossed Jia Zhangshi's bottom line.

They can lose everything, but they absolutely cannot be childless!

Even if she's so poor she has to beg for food, she still needs a grandson.

Even if her family sells their house and land, they still need to have a grandson.

Otherwise, how could she face the deceased Old Jia?

He glared at his son and said, "Your wife is pointing her finger at you and cursing you. Can't you be a little more dignified and go up there and give her a good beating?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu immediately buried her head in Jia Dongxu's arms.

"Go ahead and hit me! If you've got the guts, then kill me! If you kill me, your son will go to jail. Then you won't have a grandson, and you won't have a son to take care of you in your old age!"

She actually dared to curse her own son.

Jia Zhangshi took the basket and threw it in front of Qin Huairu.

Okay!

She even dared to throw things around.

Qin Huairu was already holding a grudge because of the issue of obtaining a city household registration.

He simply went over and grabbed Jia Zhangshi by the hair.

Jia Zhangshi was not to be outdone.

She had been incredibly humble all these years, but now, seeing her provocation, she immediately reverted to her old arrogance.

The two men quickly started fighting.

We rolled on the ground, you kicked me, I kicked you.

But they felt that this kind of fighting wasn't satisfying at all.

Qin Huairu picked up a stone and smashed it on Jia Zhangshi's head.

"I'm telling you to talk back to me, I'm telling you not to change your household registration!"

"what!"

Jia Zhangshi's head was broken.

Seeing blood flowing from his forehead, he increased his strength.

He grabbed Qin Huairu by the neck, making it hard for her to breathe.

Jia Dongxu watched the two of them fight like this.

He kept shouting, "Get up! Stop fighting!"

When he saw the blood on his mother's face, Qin Huairu's face turned purple from being pinched.

He suddenly yanked his mother's arm.

"You'll strangle her to death like that!"

It was this pull that made her arm lose its strength.

"call--"

Qin Huairu gasped for breath and finally caught her breath.

Okay!

You actually used deadly force.

Qin Huairu was young after all, and with a sudden burst of strength, she flipped over and pinned Jia Zhangshi down.

One hand was grabbing her collar, while the other kept slapping her face.

"Crack, snap, snap!"

"I'm letting you pinch me, I'm letting you not submit."

"You think you can kill me? Today we'll see who dies by whose hand!"

“If anything happens to me, my parents and brother will come over tomorrow and smash your house to pieces.”

Jia Zhangshi was beaten and cried out in pain.

She saw her son standing there motionless.

"Jia Dongxu, are you a dead man? How could you side with your own wife instead of me?"

Jia Dongxu tried to pull her back, his hands trembling.

Qin Huairu turned her head and glared at her.

With her hair disheveled and her eyes red, she looked like a crazed she-wolf.

"If you dare come any closer, I'll have my brother beat you up too."

Jia Dongxu dared not strike again, but kept pleading in a tearful voice, "Stop hitting me, please stop hitting me."

He Hongyang and Wang Liying sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) at home, looking out the window at the scene outside.

This is a fight between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law (the transit point is 119).

It's clearly an enemy seeking revenge!

Seeing their heads bleeding profusely, they were practically ready to kill each other.

"Brother Hongyang, Jia Zhangshi's face is covered in blood. It's really scary to see. Aren't they family? How could they be fighting like this? Why didn't anyone go out and break it up?"

"This isn't the first time their family has been fighting; everyone's used to it."

"That Jia Zhangshi is the same. Why didn't she and Qin Huairu transfer their household registrations here in the first place? No wonder her daughter-in-law beat her up."

“She thinks she can eat rural food for the rest of her life and that her decision is the most correct one. How can such a person listen to advice? You have to beat her until she submits.”

Just as He Hongyang had predicted.

Qin Huairu simply picked up another stone.

"Tell me, are you convinced or not? From now on, whose opinion will be on our side in this family?"

Jia Zhangshi never expected that she would end up in the hands of her daughter-in-law.

They used to argue all the time, but they rarely came to blows.

Even if they did fight, it was just a symbolic fight, with each other grabbing each other's hair.

Now, she's serious!

It seems she wants to shift all the blame onto herself because of the household registration issue.

"Calm down. I didn't know things would turn out this way with the household registration. They say man proposes, God disposes. I didn't want this to happen either!"

It seems she's still not convinced and wants to keep up the argument.

"Snapped!"

Qin Huairu slapped her across the face.

That slap sent blood flying everywhere.

"I'll ask you one more time, do you submit or not? Who's in charge of this family from now on?"

Jia Zhangshi never expected that she would dare to hit her like that.

This time it was a slap in the face; next time, she really might throw a rock at herself.

Now I have a hole in my head.

If I were hit again, I don't know if I'd even be able to keep my head.

A good man does not suffer from immediate losses!

All he could do was nod and plead, "I completely give up. From now on, you're in charge of this family."

Upon hearing her say that, Jia Dongxu immediately joined in the pleading.

"My mom has already admitted her mistake, so please let her go."

Qin Huairu released the person.

After getting up, she tidied her hair.

"Let me tell you, if you dare to do this again, you won't get away with it so easily!"

Jia Dongxu helped Jia Zhangshi up, constantly wiping the blood from her face.

"Mom, how are you? Should we see a doctor?"

I thought there was a doctor readily available in this courtyard.

In his desperation, he kept calling out to the He family.

"Brother He, my mother has a head injury, could you please take a look?"

He Hongyang slowly opened the door.

"What's going on? It's so early in the morning, can't a person have some peace and quiet?"

"My mom's head is bleeding. Quickly get some gauze to stop the bleeding and some medicine to wipe it off."

"I don't own a hospital, how would I have these things?"

"But aren't you a doctor?"

"I work at the steel rolling mill's clinic. Why don't you take her to the clinic and I'll take a look at her?"

The factory clinic is for factory workers, how could it possibly treat her?

Even if he brought his mother, he probably wouldn't be able to get past the security guard at the entrance.

"Brother He, please take a look at my mother."

"Turn right after you go out, there's a clinic there, go straight there!"

"boom!"

He slammed the door shut.

Qin Huairu thought that He Hongyang's refusal to help her was because he was on her side.

After all, she was the one who hit him. If he were to show it to her now, wouldn't that imply that he was siding with the Jia family?
