1952: Walking through Nantongluo Alley

As soon as Tingting walked into the room, her face turned dark. Just now, she heard a lot of what Jia Dongxu said outside the door.

"Jia Dongxu, what happened to your job?"

A familiar voice sounded behind him, and Jia Dongxu shuddered.

"Tingting, why are you here?"

"This is the eldest uncle in the compound and also my master." Jia Dongxu quickly changed the subject and began to introduce Yi Zhonghai to Tingting.

Tingting remained unmoved and continued to look at Jia Dongxu with a dark face.

She said with a glare.

"Don't interrupt me. Answer me quickly. What happened to your job? Did you really lose it?"

At this time, the second aunt on the side came to the rescue.

"Tingting, don't you know that Dongxu has been fired by the steel mill?"

Boom~~~

Jia Dongxu felt as if the sky was falling apart and the earth was cracking in his mind.

"Second Aunt, what are you talking about..."

"Am I wrong? Isn't it said in the compound that you have been fired from the steel mill?" the second aunt continued.

The first and third aunts poked the second aunt on the shoulder.

"Second Aunt, what are you talking about?"

After saying that, they both looked at Tingting with fake smiles.

"Tingting, don't think too much. Dongxu wasn't fired from the steel mill. He's just on temporary leave at home."

"After ten days or half a month, Dongxu will be able to return to the factory and continue working."

An aunt explained.

Tingting's face was getting darker and darker, and she looked at Jia Dongxu without any emotion.

"Is what Auntie said true? Were you really given leave from the steel mill?"

Tingting walked towards Jia Dongxu step by step.

At this moment, Jia Dongxu felt so exhausted that even his legs were shaking involuntarily.

"Tingting, listen to me first. I'm not fired. I'm just on temporary leave at home."

"After a while I can go back to work at the steel mill."

There was a crisp snap.

Tingting slapped Jia Dongxu in the face.

At this moment, everyone present was stunned.

Tingting slapped Jia Dongxu?

Wife beats husband?

This explosive news will definitely become the hot topic of conversation among everyone in the courtyard after dinner.

Jia Dongxu covered his left cheek which was hit by Tingting.

At this time, his face was flushed red, with anger and irritation.

Tingting slapped herself in front of so many people. Where could she put her old face?

Just as he was about to get angry at Tingting, Tingting slapped him again.

"What? You still want to be mean to me?"

"Do you think you're quite right? Do you feel particularly aggrieved?"

"You said you were furloughed from the steel mill, something as serious as that. Why didn't you tell me? Who do you think I am, Tingting? Am I still a part of this family?"

"me......"

Jia Dongxu was stunned by Tingting's question.

"go home with me!"

"Hurry! Now! Immediately!"

Jia Dongxu didn't dare to resist at all, for fear that Tingting would continue to beat him in front of so many people.

Then I had no choice but to walk behind Tingting and follow her home.

After the two left, Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief.

For some reason, when Tingting was at his house just now, he felt a strong sense of suffocation.

He didn't even dare to think of scolding Tingting.

After all, he is Jia Dongxu's master. Beating his apprentice in front of him is equivalent to slapping Yi Zhonghai in the face.

"Dongxu's wife is quite fierce..." the third aunt muttered while standing aside.

"Who said it wasn't? This time, my sister-in-law has met her match."

"Who do you think is better, Tingting or my sister-in-law?"

The corners of the aunt's mouth rose slightly.

She seemed to have already seen the scene of Jia Zhang being scolded and taught a lesson by Tingting.

There was chaos in the Jia family outside the door.

From time to time, there were some curses and the sound of pots and pans falling to the ground and breaking.

There was nothing to say all night, and it was early the next morning.

Jia Dongxu had panda eyes and ran to Yi Zhonghai's house dejectedly while no one in the compound got up yet.

Jia Zhang was not in much better condition. There was a bloody scratch on her neck.

These scratches were naturally made by Tingting.

Yesterday, Tingting challenged Jia Zhang alone and did not give her any chance to summon her soul, and she herself did not even have any injuries.

This is enough to show how strong Tingting is.

Jia Dongxu, with panda eyes, knocked on Yi Zhonghai's door hurriedly.

"Master, I'm Dongxu, I have something urgent to discuss with you."

An old lady opened the door.

Jia Dongxu knelt down in front of Yi Zhonghai on the spot.

He lowered his head and cried with tears and snot.

"Master, I really can't live like this anymore. I really can't live like this anymore."

"Please come with me to the leader of the steel mill and ask for mercy on my behalf."

The aunt felt a little distressed, as she heard it clearly at home yesterday.

She originally wanted to go to the house to mediate, but unfortunately the door was locked and she couldn't force her way in.

After all, this is their family affair, and it is not easy to interfere.

She sighed deeply and pulled Jia Dongxu up.

"Dongxu, get up first. If you have anything to say, tell me slowly. How can a grown man cry like this? If others see you, you will be laughed at."

Yi Zhonghai sat upright in the chair without saying a word, quietly holding the enamel cup in one hand.

Jia Dongxu wiped his face with his arm and continued to cry to Yi Zhonghai.

"Master, if I still can't go to work at the steel mill in the next two days, Tingting wants to divorce me!"

Upon hearing this, both Auntie and Yi Zhonghai were shocked.

Yi Zhonghai even stood up from his chair.

"What did you say?" the aunt asked.

"Tingting wants to divorce you? How long have you two been married? We don't even have a child, how can we possibly get a divorce?"

Jia Dongxu nodded and broke down crying again.

In this era, divorce is a very rare thing, with only a few cases a year in the entire city.

Moreover, it was Tingting who filed for divorce.

If they really get divorced, Jia Dongxu will never be able to hold his head up again in Siheyuan.

I'm afraid he will be the first man in Beijing to be divorced by a woman.

"Old man, you must help Dongxu with this matter!" An old lady looked at Yi Zhonghai with hope in her eyes.

Yi Zhonghai sighed twice.

In an instant, he seemed to have aged several years, and even his back looked a little hunched.

He has always regarded Dongxu as someone to take care of in his old age, otherwise he would not have accepted him as his apprentice.

"Okay, then I'll shamelessly go and ask the leader for help today."

"Dongxu, I haven't completed the task assigned by my superiors yet, and I was injured at work yesterday. My hope of pleading for mercy this time is slim."

"If you fail, don't blame the master."

Jia Dongxu cried with joy.

"No, Master, I believe you can do it."

Yi Zhonghai: "..."

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai only felt Alexander.
