Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

"Then I guess when Jia Dongxu comes back, the Jia family will be in chaos again!" Zhao Cheng looked at the sky and guessed that Jia Dongxu would be back soon, so he hurried home to eat and wait for the turmoil in the Jia family in the Central Courtyard.

At this time, in the Jia family's central courtyard, only Jia Zhang was at home. Wang Yuzhi and her two children were waiting for Jia Dongxu to come back at Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Yuzhi, no matter what Jia Zhang did wrong, she is still your mother-in-law. How can you chase her and beat her? And you even scold her in the yard!" Yi Zhonghai's wife looked at Wang Yuzhi, who acted as if nothing had happened, and began to persuade her.

"Master's wife, it's not that I'm unfilial, it's just that this old woman is too much. Do you know how much she's gone too far? I went to the braised meat stall today to ask. For so many years, Jia Zhang would go to that stall almost once a month to buy two yuan worth of pork head meat. She would find a place to eat it with her empty mouth, and after eating, she would have to get rid of the smell on her body outside before going home!" Wang Yuzhi was okay with Yi Zhonghai and his wife. After all, they were her husband's master and his wife.

Yi Zhonghai's wife was speechless after being told this by Wang Yuzhi. What could she say? Could it be that she was an old woman and deserved to eat well? Everyone was in trouble now, so why couldn't you, Jia Zhangshi, tolerate this?

But if I don't say it, I feel that as an elder, I can't bear to see the mother-in-law Jia Zhang being bullied by the daughter-in-law Wang Yuzhi.

"If there is anything wrong, you can come back and discuss it. How can you beat her in the street?" Yi Zhonghai's wife said hesitantly.

"Master's wife, you don't know that our family conditions are not good now. Whatever delicious food we have is given to Dongxu and the children. She and I eat very little. But what about her? She keeps saying that my father-in-law's pension has been given to us in full, and I have deposited it in the bank. But where does she get the money to go out and eat pig's head? And she goes there almost once a month? Why can't she bring the money back for Dongxu and the children? She eats it all herself?" Wang Yuzhi was not polite in her words, but rather spoke with confidence.

Yi Zhonghai's wife was at a loss for words after Wang Yuzhi's words. After all, what Jia Zhang had done was indeed a bit excessive. The couple had no other options.

"Oh, you mother-in-law, you are so cunning, lazy, greedy and slippery! How can you do things like this!" Yi Zhonghai's wife said slowly.

Around five o'clock in the evening, Jia Dongxu returned from the factory. On the way back, some people pointed at him and talked about him, but Jia Dongxu didn't understand what was going on, so he didn't take it seriously.

However, the cunning Yi Zhonghai was very nervous, after all, the things he did were not allowed to be seen in public!

After returning to the courtyard, Jia Dongxu enthusiastically greeted the gatekeeper Yan Fugui. However, Yan Fugui's hesitant look finally made Jia Dongxu take him seriously.

"Master, guess what happened?" Jia Dongxu asked Yi Zhonghai as he walked home.

"How would I know? Let's go home and take a look!" After saying that, Yi Zhonghai walked quickly through the hanging flower gate and headed home.

When Jia Dongxu returned home, he pushed the door open and found that it was locked from the inside and could not be opened at all!

"Yuzhi, open the door quickly, I'm back!" Jia Dongxu shouted outside the door.

"I'm here!" Wang Yuzhi's voice came from behind.

Jia Dongxu looked back and found that his wife was standing behind him with their two children, and his master and his wife were standing at the door of their house looking at him.

"Where have you been? Why can't I open the door of my house?" Jia Dongxu picked up his daughter and asked curiously.

"Can't open the door? Then ask your idle mother! She's embarrassing herself by not doing anything all day long!" Wang Yuzhi said to Jia Dongxu unhappily.

"What? What happened to my mother? What did she do again?" Jia Dongxu was confused by Wang Yuzhi's words.

"Dongxu, please help me! This vixen actually hit me today! She even chased me all the way from Gulou Street to beat me!" Just when Jia Dongxu was wondering, Jia Zhang opened the door from the inside, went out, hugged Jia Dongxu's thighs and started crying. The crying made anyone who saw it sad and anyone who heard it shed tears.

No one around said anything, they all watched it all coldly, including Zhao Cheng. Because Pingping was at home coaxing the children, Zhao Cheng stood behind the crowd watching the excitement.

"Bah, beating you is too light! Now that your son is back, ask him to judge for you. Tell your son what you did today and see who is wrong. You have been doing this for a long time. I asked him specifically today. You basically take two dollars every month to buy pig's head there. It has been going on for two or three years. The butcher has already told me!" Wang Yuzhi's mouth was like a machine gun, and Jia Dongxu was stunned.

Not only Jia Dongxu was confused, but even Yi Zhonghai was confused.

"This old hag actually goes there every month? Doesn't that mean she has spent all the money I gave her on buying pig's head? No wonder everyone has lost weight, but this old hag is still so fat! Damn, I myself can't bear to eat meat once a month!" Yi Zhonghai secretly resented in his heart.

I hate that Jia Zhangshi is so unreliable and got caught cheating. I hate myself even more for having fallen into Jia Zhangshi's trap. My wife and I are so reluctant to spend our own money on food and clothing, hoping to save it for our retirement. But Jia Zhangshi is so good that she spends two yuan every month on pig's head! And she eats it all by herself!

"Mom, is what Yuzhi said true?" Jia Dongxu asked Jia Zhang in disbelief.

"That's because this vixen makes mom do everything every day. Mom is so old, what's wrong with eating some pig's head? Besides, all my money has been taken away by this vixen, what's wrong with me eating the money I earned myself?" Jia Zhang never thought she was wrong. After all, she was an old person and an elder. What's the big deal about eating and drinking good food?

"You earned it yourself? Tell me how you earned that money? Even if you earned it yourself, Dongxu is so tired at work every day, can't you use the money to buy meat and stew it for everyone at home? Look at how thin Dongxu has become? Is there anyone in our courtyard thinner than Dongxu?" Wang Yuzhi immediately got angry when she heard what Jia Zhang said.

She was not angry about Jia Zhangshi eating meat, she was angry about Jia Zhangshi eating alone!

"This Jia Zhang is really a dog that can't change its bad habits. When old Jia was alive, she always ate meat secretly. She always ate it herself and never gave it to old Jia. Now she has a grandson, but she still does this?" Old Li from the backyard secretly said to Liu Haizhong's wife.

"Hey, this Jia Zhang is just like that. How could she be so fat if she didn't cheat? Look at this yard, apart from the He family and the Zhao family in the front yard, only my family's Liu is fat. But they are the strong laborers of the family, and they deserve to eat well. Who is like Jia Zhang, who eats herself so fat just by washing and cleaning at home?" Yan Fugui's wife interrupted.

Almost no one in the compound was proud of Jia Zhangshi, except Yi Zhonghai. Although Jia Zhangshi made it sound quite pitiful, wasn't everyone like that? They all stayed at home doing the laundry and taking care of the children. Which family was different?

"What are you guys yelling about? I've finally become a mother-in-law after many years of being a daughter-in-law. Can't I enjoy myself? Why do I have to do all the housework? Why doesn't Wang Yuzhi do it? These chores should have been done by her!" Jia Zhang was very excited because her son was beside her. She stood up and started to scold the small group of daughters-in-law in Liu Haizhong.

"Actually, what Aunt Jia said is right. She is a mother-in-law now, so what's wrong with enjoying herself? It's a pity that your Jia family is just an ordinary working class. In my opinion, Aunt Jia should be like those landlords' wives in the past, doing nothing at home and hiring a few maids to serve her!" Xu Damao echoed in a loud voice from behind.

When Jia Zhang heard this at first, she was quite happy. She didn't expect Xu Damao to be so polite and filial to the elderly. She would not target him anymore.

But when Xu Damao said the following words, Jia Zhang's defense broke down on the spot. How could he say that? Isn't this pushing me to death?

"Xu Damao, shut up! What landlord's wife, maid! It's a new society now, there is no exploiting class, we are all ordinary people, working class! Stop putting labels on people!" Yi Zhonghai was watching the fun, but as soon as Xu Damao said this, Yi Zhonghai immediately scolded Xu Damao loudly, saying that he couldn't say such remarks now!

"Am I wrong? Apart from those landlord wives and the bourgeoisie, who else would start clamoring for a good life when they are over 40? Your family, Yi Zhonghai's? Or Liu Haizhong's family?" Xu Damao is not afraid of Yi Zhonghai now.

After all, Yi Zhonghai didn't have the status of a big boss, nor did he have the golden thugs like Sha Zhu. Although Yi Zhonghai was the master chef of the steel mill, he was in the propaganda department and in the workshop, and he couldn't control himself. What was there to be afraid of?

"Da Mao, stop talking nonsense. We are discussing the issue of Jia Zhang! Don't talk nonsense!" When Liu Haizhong heard that he was also involved, he quickly stopped Xu Damao.

When Jia Dongxu heard everyone's discussion, he realized that his mother had gone out to eat cheating again and was caught by his wife. As a result, his wife beat him and scolded him for the whole afternoon.

Jia Dongxu looked at his mother with complicated eyes. What he wanted to say the most was, "Mom, can you love me again?" How could you eat pig's head meat secretly? How could you eat it by yourself? You should look at your son! If not your son, look at your grandson!

"Mom, is what Yuzhi said true?" Jia Dongxu asked in a hoarse voice.

When Jia Zhang heard her son's question, she opened her mouth, but in the end said nothing. She just lowered her head and looked at her big, white hands.

"Oh, that's enough, Yuzhi. Since mom has already eaten the meat, let it be! It's my fault that I don't have the ability to let our family not even have meat to eat! Let's go home quickly! Hurry up and cook, the children are hungry!" Jia Dongxu felt that his energy was sagging.

"Dongxu..." Wang Yuzhi saw that Jia Zhang wanted to say something, so she walked over and supported Jia Dongxu back to the house. Banggeng and Xiaodang followed behind their mother. Banggeng even looked at his grandmother before entering the house, wondering how could this grandmother eat by herself?

"Okay, okay, let's go. It's time to go home and eat! We have to go to work tomorrow, so everyone should go to bed early!" When Yi Zhonghai saw that the protagonists had left, he quickly dispersed the crowd who came to watch the fun and went home on his own.

Zhao Cheng watched everyone go home one by one, and then went back to share with Pingping.

However, Zhao Cheng believed that starting from tomorrow, Jia Zhang would definitely be famous throughout Nanluoguxiang, and if things went well, she might even become famous throughout the entire city of Beiping.
