Dinner will be served soon.

At He Yuzhu's house, no one had the appetite to eat. They all pricked up their ears, listening to the movements of the Jia family.

He Yuzhu saw this and was too lazy to answer them. He held his son and kept eating.

Xu Damao turned around and saw He Yuzhu eating voraciously, and said, "You have never eaten before, why are you eating so much?"

He Yuzhu said, "I'm hungry. Isn't it because there's not enough food that you're making trouble? It's not like you haven't seen it before, so why are you so curious?"

"This is different."

No one said what was different. Anyway, most people agreed with this statement.

The Jia family's side was more exciting than they had imagined.

Father Qin and his two sons set out before dawn. By now, they were already starving.

Coupled with the delicious smell coming from He Yuzhu's house, my stomach has been rumbling for a long time.

As soon as the food was served, the three of them started to eat.

When Jia Zhang saw this, she didn't even bother to curse and just started eating as well.

Yan Bugui originally wanted to maintain the demeanor of a city dweller, but when he saw a few people eating with big mouthfuls, he felt that he was at a disadvantage.

He didn't care about his manners and joined the group that was eating and drinking.

The deaf old lady also wanted to eat like that, but she was old and her teeth were not good, so she could not keep up with those people.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong held their glasses and tried to persuade others to drink, but no one paid any attention to them.

The two of them clinked glasses together dejectedly, and when they looked at the table, there was not much food left.

Yi Zhonghai said unhappily: "Brother Qin, come, let's have a drink."

Father Qin didn't waste any time, picked up the cup and drank it: "Brother Yi, to be honest, life at home is not easy, we don't have enough to eat every day. It's not as good as you in the city."

While they were talking, the food on the table was gone.

Qin Erge shouted to Qin Huairu: "Sister, serve some more food. The food on the table has been eaten."

Brother Qin shouted, "Give me two more steamed buns. You are such a dear sister. My father and I have come all the way to see you. But you are not willing to give us even a little white flour bun."

Jia Zhang hadn't managed to rob a few people, and she was so angry that she couldn't stand it anymore: "If you don't want to eat, get out. Our family didn't force you to come."

When Father Qin heard this, he was dissatisfied: "My dear relative, how can you say that? My daughter has never enjoyed a single day of happiness since she married into your family. Do you think there is no one left in our family?"

Jia Zhang had long been dissatisfied with Qin Huairu. After hearing this, she shouted angrily: "It's not our family who begged her to marry here."

Brother Qin had a bad temper and slapped the table, knocking over the wine glasses.

"If your family hadn't begged us, we wouldn't have looked down upon that short-lived Jia Dongxu."

Jia Zhang cursed directly. Then the two sides quarreled, and the three uncles tried to stop the fight.

As soon as the noise came out, Xu Damao and his friends came out of the house. Soon, many people gathered in the yard to watch the excitement.

The deaf old lady left Jia's house with a gloomy face. Seeing so many people watching the excitement outside, she didn't care.

Xu Damao covered his mouth and laughed, and was pushed by Zhang Yan.

At this time, the deaf old lady was full of anger. If she was discovered by her, she would definitely come over to cause trouble.

After a while of crackling, the noise from the Jia family finally stopped.

Old Man Qin and his two companions walked out of the house angrily, and their faces turned black when they saw so many people watching the fun in the yard.

Jia Zhang didn't dare to offend Old Man Qin and the other two, so she turned her attention to Qin Huairu.

"It's all your fault, bitch. What kind of relatives are these? You eat our food, drink our drinks, and yet you dare to cause trouble in my house."

Yi Zhonghai said with a dark face: "Sister-in-law, can't you say less?" Qin Huairu cried aggrievedly: "Mom, what are you doing? My father and brother finally came here... woo woo..."

Father Qin shouted angrily: "Huai Ru, come out here. Since she looks down on our family, don't stay at her house. Come back to your mother's house with me.

We will find you a new family."

Yi Zhonghai was very anxious when he heard this and walked out of the room again: "Brother Qin, don't be impulsive. Huairu is leaving with you, what about Banggeng?"

Brother Qin said dissatisfiedly: "It's better not to have such an unfilial nephew."

Qin Erge also said: "That's right, I have never seen such an ignorant child. When his uncle came to his house, he couldn't even eat a steamed bread."

Yi Zhonghai's old habit came back, and he said to the two of them, "Shut up. Who told you to talk to your elders like that?"

Brother Qin and Brother Qin were not the cowards in the courtyard. When they heard what Yi Zhonghai said, they pointed at his nose and cursed: "Who do you think you are? How dare you interfere in our family's affairs."

Qin Huairu saw that things were not going well and quickly persuaded them: "Big brother, second brother, please stop talking. Without the eldest uncle, my family can't survive in the courtyard."

Brother Qin was still furious: "You are also an ungrateful person. You married into the city and became a city dweller, so you look down on your own parents.

Calculate for yourself how many times you can go back in a year."

Qin Huairu felt wronged, and of course she wanted to go back, but how could she go back?

Every time I go back, I have to spend a lot of money. Who will pay for this money?

"I want to go back, but life at home is difficult. How can I go back?"

"Pah. Where's Yi Zhonghai? He said back then that he would help you two."

Yi Zhonghai's face darkened immediately: "Who taught you to be so unruly? I am your elder, and there is no elder who is not wrong in the world..."

Before he could finish his words, Brother Qin pushed Yi Zhonghai, and Yi Zhonghai lost his balance and fell on his butt.

Yi Zhonghai had lost so much face, how could he bear it: "I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your father, you unfilial boy."

Then the fight started.

He Yuzhu did not go out. He drank happily in the house and listened to the noise outside.

Lin Jinghan was pregnant and tired of standing, so she came back to sit down: "Qin Huairu's brother is so fierce. By the way, I remember that when Jia Dongxu died, no one from the Qin family came!"

He Yuzhu laughed: "What do you mean no one came? It's because no one went to notify them. They didn't know how to come."

This is not He Yuzhu slandering the Jia family, it’s just that no one went to notify them.

Not only in this life, but also in Shazhu's previous life, no one notified him.

The reason is very simple. Yi Zhonghai does not want the Jia family to have any contact with relatives. If the Jia family has relatives, it is equivalent to having someone to rely on. His elder from the Eighth Route Army will have no room to speak.

Coincidentally, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu were both selfish people. They were unwilling to invite their poor relatives from their hometown to dinner, so they did not mention this matter.

They also told others that life in the countryside was difficult, and if they were notified, they would have to pay money, so they would not be allowed to make the trip.

If you think about it carefully, most of the people living in the courtyard have no contact with their relatives, and there are no relatives visiting during the holidays.

Some people really don't have many relatives, like He Yuzhu and He Daqing, who lost contact with their relatives throughout their lives.

Some people just don't want to contact their relatives, so they have to ask Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai's relatives live in a rural area outside Beijing. Yi Zhonghai is worried that his relatives will come and eat him up, so he never visits them.

Another typical example is Yan Bugui. When relatives come to his house for dinner, they have to pay for it. After they come once, they never come again.

He visited Yan Jiecheng's wife Hao Min's parents' home only once and never came again.

During the Chinese New Year, Yan Jiecheng went to visit his father-in-law, Yan Bugui, but he did not give him any support at all.

While He Yuzhu was daydreaming, Qin Huairu's father took her two brothers and left the courtyard.

Before leaving, Brother Qin threatened Qin Huairu: "If you want to recognize your parents, go back often to visit them. If you don't, your family will pretend you don't exist." (End of this chapter)
