Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

"I'm not trying to criticize you, but you jumped up all of a sudden and ran in front of me to stop me. You don't look like someone who can't take care of herself at all. We think you're in great spirits."

"There isn't a single old lady in this courtyard. Since you're healthy, you should just stay put. You can use this time to take care of yourself instead of wasting everyone's time."

Jia Zhangshi remained unreasonable, insisting on stopping him and demanding an explanation. Xiao Zhang, having been pestered indefinitely, finally spoke up.

"How about this, if you really feel you can't take care of yourself, then you can come back to the committee with me. We'll provide free meals every day, and you can stay here at night. Is that alright?"

Madam Jia was still not satisfied. He shook his head and then said...

"That won't do. If I have to run back and forth so many times every day, my legs definitely won't be able to take it. You must send someone over to take care of me."

Xiao Zhang, however, had a fiery temper and immediately spoke up.

"Oh dear, I've never seen anyone like you before. I've already told you that we definitely can't have anyone come to take care of you, but you just won't let it go."

"I've already made concessions for you, letting you stay with us for a while, but you still disagree. In that case, I really have no other choice. Do whatever you want, go wherever you want, I really can't control you anymore."

"I've never seen such an unreasonable old lady before. You're perfectly healthy, yet you insist on being taken care of. Don't you know how busy we are every day?"

"We don't have time to send someone to take care of you. If you really feel that you can't take care of yourself, then you should go to a nursing home."

Li Chaoyang nodded and then spoke.

"Yeah, you're stronger than all of us. We can't even imitate the energy and spirit you have when you're cursing. You always say you're not in good health, it's really laughable."

Madam Jia, however, remained defiant and spoke in a particularly unreasonable manner.

“You see, you see, everyone in this courtyard bullies this old woman. Nobody can see me, but when they see me, they gossip about me.”

“I’ve only been saying these two sentences, and they’ve all attacked me. You can see that clearly, right? I’m not lying, they’re all bullying me.”

"Then I don't have the ability to cook. I haven't eaten all day. After my daughter-in-law left, there was no one to take care of me. These people don't care about me at all."

“They took my grandson away, ate a meal, and then I said I hadn’t eaten either, but they didn’t care at all and ignored me. You have to stand up for me! Aren’t the people from your committee here to stand up for us? If you don’t do anything about this, I’m going to report you to higher authorities.”

The committee members were completely bewildered. He glanced at him and then continued.

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. I didn't come here to listen to this. Didn't you say you wanted to have these two children notarized?"

“I can see that these two children like you very much, and everyone can see that you are from the same courtyard. My presence here is to certify your relationship.”

"You can take the child and live with him. I will come and check on you every few days to see if you are doing anything wrong to the child. But don't worry, I will send someone to keep an eye on him. That way, even if someone tries to frame you, they won't have a chance."

Li Chaoyang nodded happily, and was about to leave with Lou Xiao'e and the others, but was stopped by Jia Zhangshi, who then said...

"So, you're all in cahoots, aren't you? You don't listen to what this old woman has to say at all. I'm telling you, they don't care about my life or death at all."

"They do whatever they want. I really hate them. I feel like I'm about to faint. I haven't eaten yet."

“If you continue to ignore me, I’m really going to report you to the higher-ups. So many of you are ignoring an old woman like me. I’m really heartbroken and angry.”

"Your duty is to respect the elderly and care for the young, so what do you mean by only taking care of the children and not me?"

“You look down on me, this old woman. You think I'm too old and useless, so you don’t take care of me. Even the people on your committee are like this to me. I really misjudged you.”

"I thought you were different from the others, but it turns out you're all in cahoots. You've all conspired together, so you're saying you don't care about me, right? Even if I starve to death here without eating, you'll all just stand by and watch, right? You guys are really ruthless. I don't even know what to say to you anymore."

"You people are so wicked, I really don't know what to say to you."

Li Chaoyang glanced at him, then said, feeling utterly speechless.

What are you doing now?

“We have no obligation to take care of you. The committee members are just handling trivial matters. They can’t possibly send someone specifically to take care of you.”

"And they've already given you a solution, saying you could go with them to their place, where you'll have food and lodging, which is pretty good, and someone will take care of you. If you're still not satisfied, what else do you want to do?"

Madam Jia rolled her eyes and then said...

“You have no say in this, you little ingrate. I just want them to find me a place where I can eat and live, and where someone will wait on me. What’s wrong with that? It’s not an unreasonable request at all.”

"Even if they don't have one, they can send someone over to take care of me, cook for me, and serve me. I don't think there's any problem at all. The people on their committee are supposed to be in charge of people like us."

"But they don't know how to make any changes. They just do some trivial things every time. Do you think any of what they do is really meaningful?"

“They’re all just small things. But when it comes to the important things that they should be involved in, they all pretend they don’t see them. I’m really not satisfied with that. I have to report them to the higher-ups.”

The people on the (abfj) committee were almost in tears, according to what the league told him.

"Oh dear, ma'am, if you talk like that, it's really unreasonable. There are only so many people in our committee, and there are so many people in and around this courtyard."

"It would be too difficult for us to serve each and every one of you well, and it would be even more difficult if you asked us to turn the key to the service area."

“We can’t spare the manpower, and we have no obligation to take care of you. Ah, your daughter-in-law is gone, that’s your own family matter.”

“If all else fails, you can choose to go to a nursing home or find another relative to take care of you. You can’t put this responsibility on my shoulders.”

“We’re not here to solve these kinds of problems for you. We just resolve some conflicts and disputes within the courtyard. We can’t handle big issues like this, not because we don’t want to.”

"If you really can't understand, then I'll find someone to translate for you. Anyway, we definitely can't shut you down. If you insist on reporting me to higher authorities because of this, then I don't care."

"Anyway, we have no obligation to care about your affairs. If you want to report me, then report me. I've already completed the notarization, and I've done what I was supposed to do. I'm leaving now and won't say anything more to you."

Unexpectedly, Jia Zhangshi stopped him and then said...

"That won't do. This matter hasn't been resolved yet, so you're not allowed to leave."

"You have to resolve this issue for me. I have no one to take care of me and I haven't had a single meal. This is your responsibility. If you don't take responsibility, I will definitely cause trouble."

As she spoke, Jia Zhangshi sat down on the ground, looking like she was about to throw a tantrum. Li Chaoyang was particularly angry, so he went over, helped her up, and then said...
