Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

Chapter 426 Exposed

Facing the question raised by Liang Ladi, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi were at a loss for words! Are we doing this just for money? That's not a good thing to say!

"Nan Yi's wife, you totally don't understand. Dongxu's family already has three children, and his wife is pregnant with another one. Together with the three adults, there are seven people in the family, just like yours. But you two have one chef and one level five welder, and your income is much higher than Dongxu's salary alone." Yi Zhonghai did not force Liang Ladi to donate money, but told Liang Ladi about the difficulties of the Jia family in a soft voice.

But this is also the truth. Jia Dongxu is the only one in the Jia family who earns money. His mother and wife do not earn anything at all. Moreover, with three children in school, the burden is indeed not small, mainly because Jia Dongxu earns too little.

Before the incident, Jia Dongxu earned less than 40 yuan a month. Now, Jia Zhang had used up all her savings to buy Jia Dongxu a wife, which made things even worse.

Nowadays, the daughter-in-law has nothing good to nourish her body when she is pregnant. It is no different from before she got married. Moreover, she has to serve Jia Zhang, the lazy and greedy mother-in-law, every day. It can be said that her life is even more miserable than before!

If it weren't for the fact that this daughter-in-law's family lived so far away, and that it was impossible to get anywhere without a letter of introduction in those days, this daughter-in-law would have run away long ago. What kind of family is this? Why would you buy a daughter-in-law if you don't have money?

Everyone in the compound did the math and realized it was just as Yi Zhonghai had said. From now on, Jia Dongxu would only receive a salary of 25 yuan per month, which was not enough to cover their expenses. Life was already difficult before, and now with his injury, it was even more difficult.

"You wouldn't know if you didn't calculate it, but after this calculation, the Jia family has met the standard for a poor household, right? Our standard for a poor household is five yuan per person per month. The Jia family's situation is completely worthy of applying for a poor household!" said a neighbor.

When Jia Zhang heard what this person said, she became more interested. Their family could indeed apply to be a poor household, but that was a matter for the future. The problem now was their donation today.

Yi Zhonghai also felt that it was completely possible for the Jia family to apply for hardship status. He needed to go to the street office tomorrow to inquire about the situation. Otherwise, how long would the subsidy last?

"Master Yi, what you said is not right. Nan Yi and I earn a lot of money, but it is not enough to donate to the Jia family, right? In our courtyard, apart from you and Master Liu, which family is not in need? Isn't it a bit unfair for you to ask us, a group of poor families, to donate to another poor family?" Liang Ladi was not afraid of offending Yi Zhonghai at all, because he and Nan Yi were both from the machinery factory. Although the machinery factory was just a supporting factory under the steel rolling mill, Yi Zhonghai really had no say in it.

"What you said is not right, Nan Yi's wife. We live in this compound. We are neighbors and we should help each other. How can it be considered excessive? Besides, you two are the highest-paid people in our compound. There is nothing wrong with giving the Jia family some help!" Yi Zhonghai obviously would not give up such a rich man easily.

"How about this? Since we are all meeting together today to discuss solving the Jia family's problems, you can all help according to your own conditions. Those who have money can help more, and those who don't have money can help less. In the future, if anyone has any problems, neither Jia Zhangshi nor Jia Dongxu will let everyone work in vain. What do you think?" Yi Zhonghai promised everyone.

Jia Zhang actually wanted to object, but Yi Zhonghai was right next to her. She could see the warning in Yi Zhonghai's eyes, and it was too obvious.

"Haha, Master Yi, what you said is the same as if you didn't say anything. When our family made some delicious food, Jia Zhang came to our house with the ancestral large bowl to ask for it. If we didn't give it to her, she would sit at our door and curse. You saw it with your own eyes, right? Just tell me, who would dare to have anything to do with the Jia family? Ever since Director Zhao moved out, Jia Zhang has wanted to move into their house in the compound more than once, right? She said that she was afraid that the house would be damaged. If you hadn't stopped her, Jia Zhang would have moved in already, right? This is how the Jia family helps other families. Just ask, who in the entire compound or the entire city would dare to ask her for help?" Liang Ladi directly exposed that what Yi Zhonghai said was a lie and made no sense at all.

Zhao Cheng sat in the back, not expecting to get to eat his own melon today. This Jia Zhang actually wanted to live in his house? It seemed that Old Yan hadn't told him the truth!

In fact, Yan Fugui felt a little regretful when he heard Liang Ladi's words. How could he have forgotten about this matter? Zhao Cheng wouldn't think that he had deliberately kept it a secret, right?

"Liang Ladi, stop slandering me! I just saw that Zhao Cheng's house was empty and I was afraid it would collapse, so I wanted to move in and show him the house! I have no intention of occupying someone else's house!" Jia Zhang was like a rooster with its feathers blown off, and she quickly distanced herself from the matter.

Although Zhao Cheng no longer lived in the compound, no one dared to occupy the house! Now, no one in the entire city could have taken advantage of Zhao Cheng! This matter had spread to the alleys! They were not isolated from the world, so how could they still not know about the street-cleaning tiger Zhao Cheng?

"Haha, only you know whether you have that intention or not. Anyway, our family is not living well, so we will not donate money to your Jia family. It's not that I, Liang Ladi, am cruel, it's that you, Jia Zhang, have gone too far! You are stealing and extorting. This time it was Jia Dongxu who was injured. If he wasn't lucky enough, he would have survived. All this is caused by you, your mother, who is so ignorant! The Jia family will have no good days as long as you are here! Now you still have the nerve to complain here. If I were you, I would have jumped into the moat yourself to bring blessings to my children and grandchildren!" Liang Ladi might have been really angry with Jia Zhang.

It's fine if he just asks for food, but now he wants money? This loophole must not be opened, otherwise there will be endless trouble waiting for everyone in the future. If this happens once, it will happen countless times! How could someone as smart as Liang Ladi not think of this?

Everyone in the compound saw Liang Ladi's tough demeanor, and it also made everyone in the courtyard see a different Liang Ladi. It turned out that she was not only good at living, but also so good at quarreling. Her toughness was no less than that of Jia Zhangshi! In fact, it was even better!

Yi Zhonghai saw Liang Ladi say this, and everyone around her seemed to agree. He also felt a little overwhelmed. This Jia Zhang was also a strange person. Couldn't she just be quiet at ordinary times? Why did she do things so drastically? To make the whole compound hate her, it must be said that this Jia Zhang was also a talent!
