Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

Chapter 425 Arousing Public Outrage

With Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui's subsequent retreat, Jia Zhang seemed to see the dawn of victory today. She had already dealt with the most important people in the compound, and the remaining ones were all small-time figures who had no way to resist the double act between her and Lao Yi.

Seeing Yan Fugui was silent, Yi Zhonghai decided not to attack him anymore. Although it was not the fifty yuan he had agreed to with Jia Zhang, it was unexpected that Old Yan would offer five yuan. Because the fifty yuan he had mentioned was originally meant to trick Jia Zhang.

Yi Zhonghai then looked at the people in the yard and found that everyone was looking at each other with ugly expressions.

In fact, people are not well off these days, especially now that we are doing sports all day and have no time for production. The factory's performance is not good, so the welfare benefits in all aspects are far behind, which is difficult for everyone to accept.

Their lives are not much better than the Jia family's, and they still have to donate money to the Jia family. Isn't this making their lives even worse?

Yi Zhonghai first looked at Nan Yi who lived in the backyard, because they all knew that Nan Yi was easy to talk to and would not make a fuss about small matters even if he suffered a loss.

"Master Yi, don't look down on my Nan Yi. I, Liang Ladi, have the final say on today's matter. My opinion is very simple, that is, we do not agree to donate money to the Jia family." Before Nan Yi could say anything, his wife Liang Ladi spoke directly.

Everyone was curious to hear what Liang Ladi would say next. After all, according to their understanding, Jia Zhang would definitely get angry when she heard that they disagreed. If Liang Ladi's explanation had no loopholes, they would use it. After all, they really couldn't think of any good excuse to reject the forced donation initiated by Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhang.

Yes, in everyone's opinion, today's incident clearly involves forced donations. Although everyone wants to oppose it, because there is no strong leader, no one wants to be the first to speak out.

"Liang Ladi, you knew that a widow slept with a grown man like Nan Yi, you should be happy and thankful! Now you want to make Nan Yi the head of the family? How can you be so shameless? Old Yi was asking about Nan Yi, the chef. The old man hasn't said anything yet, but you, an old woman, have spoken out first. Where do you put Nan Yi? Do you want him to be unable to hold his head up in the courtyard?" Before Yi Zhonghai could think of an excuse, Jia Zhang jumped out and started to scold Liang Ladi.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui's unexpected obedience gave Jia Zhang a lot of confidence. The leaders of the two courtyards didn't say anything. How could you, an ordinary resident, rebel?

"Haha, Jia Zhang, don't be so arrogant. Your son is lying in the hospital with no one to take care of him. Your daughter-in-law is pregnant and has to serve you, the evil mother-in-law. If you hadn't put her in a splint all day long, she would have run away long ago, right?" Liang Ladi didn't care about Jia Zhang's threats, and she knew that Nan Yi wouldn't care about her standing up for him at all.

Ever since she gave birth to a big, fat boy at an advanced age, Nan Yi has been obedient to her and respects her opinions on many matters. The couple is now living in perfect harmony, and Nan Yi is much happier than the silly Zhu in the original drama.

They both married widows with children. Liang Ladi gave birth to a child for Nan Yi, but if Qin Huairu had not been misdiagnosed with cancer and a careful examination revealed that it was an inflammation caused by wearing the IUD for too long, everyone would have been kept in the dark by her. Even He Yushui, who had been speaking up for Qin Huairu, did not expect that Qin Huairu could be so ruthless.

"You're talking nonsense. You're the evil mother-in-law! Is it wrong for me to say that you don't respect Nan Yi? Isn't that what you do? Nan Yi, as the head of the family, didn't say anything. Why do you, a woman, have to butt in?" Jia Zhang was a little shorter than Liang Ladi.

So everyone saw a short, thick girl jumping up and down, gesturing at the tall Liang Ladi, and spouting curses. The words were as nasty as they could be. And she didn't even realize that many of the curses were coming back to her.

Liang Ladi didn't continue talking, but hugged her shoulders and smiled at Jia Zhang, who was acting like a joke. She thought Jia Zhang was becoming more and more adorable.

The more harshly Jia Zhang cursed at this time, the more people would be dissatisfied with her, and more people would disagree with donating to her, making it difficult for her to achieve her goal.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, why are you so rude? Liang Ladi just said she would not donate money, and you scold her like that? What do you want everyone to think? Are you in the Jia family really a bunch of ungrateful people?" Yi Zhonghai saw that everyone's faces were getting uglier and uglier, so he quickly spoke out to stop Ms. Jia Zhang from continuing to make trouble. If she continued, it would easily arouse public anger!

By then, let alone Yi Zhonghai, even when Zhao Cheng lived here, Zhao Cheng couldn't control him!

When Jia Zhang heard Yi Zhonghai's cold words, she immediately reacted, stopped quickly, and slowly retreated behind Yi Zhonghai.

Liang Ladi felt a little sorry when she saw Jia Zhang being called back by Yi Zhonghai. If Jia Zhang continued to scold for a while, everyone would probably lose their patience and maybe they would come together to suppress the alliance between Jia Zhang and Yi Zhonghai!

Yi Zhonghai kept looking at Liang Ladi. When he noticed the regretful expression on her face, he immediately thought to himself, "What a close call!" If Jia Zhang had continued to act recklessly, perhaps everyone would have boycotted the Jia family. This was something he didn't want to see.

Although he already had Yi Yang, what would happen to this child in the future without everyone's support? Would he have to fight alone?

"Nan Yi's wife, Jia Zhang is just an ignorant old lady, don't bother with her! She just speaks unpleasantly, but she actually has a good heart. Besides, Dongxu is indeed a good boy. Whenever someone is in need, Dongxu does his best to help everyone. What we are doing today is mainly for Dongxu's good, and we hope that everyone can help Dongxu for the sake of this child. This child has suffered so much!" Yi Zhonghai wiped his eyes when he said this.

To say how distressed Yi Zhonghai was was pure nonsense. But to say Yi Zhonghai didn't care at all was also impossible. After all, Jia Dongxu was the disciple Yi Zhonghai had personally chosen to support him.

Now that he suddenly became one-armed and was truly disabled, no one could predict what would happen to him in the future. Therefore, Yi Zhonghai wanted to help Jia Dongxu to some extent, but he was reluctant to do so, so he wanted to get everyone to help together.

"Master Yi, everyone says nice things, but that's not the case in this case! Jia Dongxu's work injury will be reimbursed by the factory, right? And he will receive a subsidy of ten yuan per month during his recovery. After he recovers, he will be transferred to logistics, and the monthly salary is not small. The Jia family is in trouble, isn't our family even more difficult? Nan Yi and I have five children! Including the two of us, there are a total of seven people in the family!" Liang Ladi counted on her fingers.
