Chapter 195: translation of title

translation

While Qin Huairu was scheming to use the letter to manipulate Yi Zhonghai, she never imagined that she herself had also become someone else's pawn.

Jia Zhangshi.

Laoqianpo, who had taken in Qin Huairu's facial expression, had only one thought: what business is it of yours, Qin Huairu, an outsider, regarding the matter between Yi Zhonghai and his wife and Long Laotaitai? Why are you so worried, fretting for the ancients?

This is one aspect.

On the other hand.

Jia Zhangshi feared Qin Huairu would remarry.

Long Laotaitai's exposé shattered Jia Zhangshi's lifelong reputation; she could not use this to demand anything of Qin Huairu, otherwise Qin Huairu would certainly rebut Jia Zhangshi with Long Laotaitai's exposé.

You also once wanted to remarry; what right do you have to stop me from remarrying?

We're both widows; why do you, this old widow, make things difficult for me, this young widow? Do you want to vent all the resentment you suffered at your mother-in-law's hands onto me?

These problems.

Jia Zhangshi really couldn't answer.

With a grim face.

Trying to think of a solution as best as possible.

The Jia Family's interests are urgent.

If Long Laotaitai hadn't torn into Yi Zhonghai like this, Jia Zhangshi wouldn't have worried about the Jia Family at all; just now at the Dayuan meeting, the Jia Family was completely bound to the Yi Family, destined to drain Yi Zhonghai from start to finish—unless Yi Zhonghai dies before them, this draining will continue forever.

The problem is that Long Laotaitai is now exposing Yi Zhonghai's past misdeeds.

They are all shameful secrets.

The eldest of the Siheyuan is no longer the eldest.

Has become a stinking pile of dog shit.

The neighbors all call Yi Zhonghai by his name.

Thus.

Whether the Jia Family can continue to drain Yi Zhonghai is a matter for later.

Now that Yi Zhonghai has become a helpless mud Buddha, does he still have spare energy and resources to help the Jia Family?

Jia Zhangshi felt worry rise.

Her gaze fell unnaturally on Shazhu and Xu Daming; if they weren't both male, Jia Zhangshi would suspect they were a couple.

Shazhu never leaves Xu Daming.

Xu Daming never leaves Shazhu.

Inside the Siheyuan, the lives of the Xu Daming and Shazhu households are top-notch; especially the Xu Daming household, which can be called the richest in the Siheyuan. Isn't it because the Xu Daming household has surplus resources that Long Laotaitai set her sights on Lou Xiaoe?

If the Jia Family fares poorly, they'll have to plan for the long term.

Jia Zhangshi quickly turned her thoughts to Qin Huairu.

To deal with Xu Daming and Shazhu, Qin Huairu must step forward; her mother-in-law won't do—she's old, her looks faded, and she stirs up trouble.

They won't give Jia Zhangshi any face at all.

Unlike Qin Huairu.

After several months of temporary work at the Yagangchang, she had already made a name for herself as the Yagangchang's pretty widow; this reputation could rival that of the pretty widow Jia Zhangshi once had in the Siheyuan.

Both are widows.

Around them were also a bunch of people like cats eyeing fishy smell.

The problems Jia Zhangshi faced back then are now reappearing in Qin Huairu; as someone who's been through it, Jia Zhangshi naturally knows the ins and outs.

It's a loss of face for the Jia Family.

But the tangible benefits are real and solid.

This is more important than anything.

Use Qin Huairu to lure Shazhu and Xu Daming.

This is Jia Zhangshi's established policy.

Fortunately Qin Huairu has already had an IUD, so it won't lead to loss of life; even if she loses face, it will be in private.

……

During the period Jia Zhangshi planned to use Qin Huairu to seduce Shazhu and Xu Daming, Long Laotaitai's big show of tearing into Yi Zhonghai formally entered its climax.

Upon learning that she could have had a son but Long Laotaitai had schemed to prevent it, the eldest aunt, finding another excuse, added three more heavy slaps to Yi Zhonghai after already having struck him three times.

Three ear slaps on the left cheek, three palm slaps on the right cheek—also fair.

Yi Zhonghai became a furious lion.

Pointing at Long Laotaitai, he couldn't utter a word.

This must be because he's angry to the extreme.

With one kick he sent the Dayuan ancestor sprawling; without waiting for the ancestor's reaction, Yi Zhonghai stepped onto him in a healthy stride, pressing all his rage onto his hands.

A heavy slap landed on the left of the Dayuan ancestor's face; a right-handed punch struck his cheek.

The force exerted with hatred.

It left the Dayuan ancestor suffering beyond words.

While wailing miserably, he also turned his gaze to the surrounding people, pleading piteously for help.

Many onlookers around were watching the show.

Not a single person stepped forward to speak a fair word for Long Laotaitai.

Yi Zhonghai lost the people's favor.

Long Laotaitai also lost the people's favor.

They are all existences like stinking dog shit.

Nobody should despise anyone.

Go ahead and fight.

It's just dogs biting dogs.

Whether it's Yi Zhonghai who killed the Dayuan ancestor, or the Dayuan ancestor who killed Yi Zhonghai, to the neighbors it's all beneficial and harmless; they can't stand Yi Zhonghai, nor can they stand Long Laotaitai—either way they're both nuisances, who fights whom doesn't matter; what matters is watching the show.

Not seeing, even an elder woman was angrily watching the show, from time to time adding fuel to the fire.

"Yi Zhonghai, are you putting on a show for me? Your son died, it's all because of this undying old woman; poor my son, he died so miserably, Yi Zhonghai, if you want the Yi family's incense, I tell you, the Yi family's incense is cut off, gone, nothing left."

Yi Zhonghai, the one who was hitting, was verbally mocked by an elder woman.

The Dayuan ancestor who was being hit was also being mercilessly provoked by an elder woman.

"Dead old woman, you also have today, you've cut off descendants, you're so ruthless that I can't even become a mother; I ask you, what exactly are you thinking, dead old woman, look around—who's backing you? You think you're the Dayuan ancestor, pah, without Yi Zhonghai you're just a dispensable big fart. Poor my son, I had already chosen a name for him—call him Yi Fanfeng—now it's gone, gone."

Beside, two Jiēdào spectators.

They slightly furrowed their brows; before they were just watching the show, but continuing to watch might draw fire upon themselves, so naturally they wouldn't let the incident continue.

They worried that the Dayuan ancestor might really be beaten to death by Yi Zhonghai.

Caused a casualty.

Their faces also lost luster.

After all, they brought Long Laotaitai to the Siheyuan for a confrontation.

They also didn't expect it.

Long Laotaitai is actually a jack-of-all-trades; within the courtyard, over a hundred households, she has offended over a hundred households.

The two exchanged a glance; one stepped forward to block Yi Zhonghai, the other exerted effort to separate Yi Zhonghai and Long Laotaitai; seeing Yi Zhonghai still clamoring to beat the Dayuan ancestor, they quickly issued a verbal reprimand.

"Yi Zhonghai, calm down; if you beat her to death, you'll also have to pay with your life; she schemed against you, causing you to lose your son, but you've already hit and scolded her—leave the rest to us Jiēdào; we Jiēdào will certainly give you a satisfactory answer."

Yi Zhonghai gave the Dayuan ancestor a gloomy stare.

The Dayuan ancestor's miserable appearance clearly entered his field of vision.

His head looked a bit like that of the second senior brother.

His speech was breathy and leaking.

His heart calmed slightly.

As a Platinum-ranked player, Yi Zhonghai knew he had to do this at this moment.

Using the pretext to show off.

Hit the Dayuan ancestor.

It was done deliberately by Yi Zhonghai.

The Dayuan ancestor who exposed the inside story of He Daqing's departure is very likely to expose other matters; some things are far more despicable than forcing He Daqing to leave.

Once exposed.

That would be the end—death and the Dao vanishing.

Threatening to nip it in the bud.

Yi Zhonghai still has a son and daughter to support.

Using the matter of Long Laotaitai scheming against him and causing him to lose his son, he deliberately flew into a thunderous rage, using thunderous means to render Long Laotaitai speechless.

The subsequent matters.

That is the segment of sending Long Laotaitai away.

In Yi Zhonghai's mind, Long Laotaitai in such a miserable state certainly cannot speak.

Little did they know.

The hypocrite was mistaken.

Long Laotaitai let the hypocrite know what an indestructible little cockroach is.

The Dayuan ancestor, having endured countless punches and kicks from Yi Zhonghai, glared viciously at him; a strange smile flickered across her face; she twisted her neck, scanning the onlookers around, and when her gaze swept over Shazhu, she lingered briefly.

During the recent brutal beating by Yi Zhonghai, she greatly wished Shazhu would step forward and speak a fair word for her.

From beginning to end.

She never got Shazhu's support.

The War God has always been a stance of watching the show from the sidelines.

Long Laotaitai also bore no grudge against Shazhu.

It was she who first schemed against Shazhu; if she hadn't schemed against Shazhu, or if she could have openly talked with Shazhu, she wouldn't have ended up in this predicament; having Shazhu help her with elderly care and burial would be far better than Yi Zhonghai doing so, and her resentment toward Yi Zhonghai exceeds that of everyone else.

Everything, everything.

It's all Yi Zhonghai's doing.

In her heart there was just one thought.

To topple Yi Zhonghai.

To take revenge.

To let Yi Zhonghai also taste the feeling of being despised.

Yi Zhonghai.

It must be due to the breathy speech.

His voice carried a faint hoarseness.

Yi Zhonghai was instantly startled; he had some confidence in the force of his punches and kicks just now, and believed that the Dayuan ancestor had lost the right to speak.

Deep inside, he was comforting himself.

Don't worry, it's fine; Long Laotaitai is just struggling on her deathbed, she'll only call out her own name, after that she won't have the strength to speak.

"You didn't think my old lady could still speak, huh?"

Yi Zhonghai's eyes widened.

He stared straight at Long Laotaitai.

In his gaze,

Bringing a trace of incomprehension, and within that incomprehension also a trace of fear.

He thought of something.

"You hit me, really for your son?" Long Laotaitai spat a mouthful of saliva, half of it blood, "You're worried I'll say something unfavorable to you, you want me to lose my ability to speak—Heaven open its eyes, your scheme won't succeed."

The street is there.

Long Laotaitai doesn't worry that Yi Zhonghai will act against her.

Unless Yi Zhonghai wants to die.

Opportunity only comes once; using it again after it's been used will raise suspicion.

"Do you still want to hit me?"

Yi Zhonghai narrowed his eyes.

Speaking frankly.

He really wants to act.

But reason tells Yi Zhonghai he cannot do that.

"Look at your expression, you definitely still want to hit me. Speaking frankly, my old lady truly isn't afraid of your hit; I have one foot in the coffin—if I die, you'll also bury me with you. So many neighbors can testify; you can't do anything to my old lady."

Long Laotaitai shifted her gaze from Yi Zhonghai to the big aunt.

In her gaze,

There is a hint of admiration.

Indeed, she is Yi Zhonghai's daughter-in-law.

Can be called Yi Zhonghai's perfect match.

When aware that Yi Zhonghai's situation is dire, being able to proactively help him and think of ways to resolve the predicament—this is the big aunt.

That fact that my son is gone.

It is the big aunt who deliberately leaked the information.

It both intends to take the opportunity to criticize Long Laotaitai, but the greater thought is to artificially create an opportunity for Yi Zhonghai to act against Long Laotaitai.

Under heaven.

Is there any better excuse than losing a son?

No.

"Old Yi's daughter-in-law, in the Siheyuan, my old lady has never been impressed by anyone, but I admire you. Yi Zhonghai is a hypocrite, you are the strategist, you two have been running rampant in the Siheyuan for years. Many think it's Yi Zhonghai's achievement, but only my old lady knows it's your doing. Your family's affairs seem to be decided by Yi Zhonghai, but actually you are in charge, acting under his name; my old lady thinks she is inferior to you."

The neighbors were stunned.

Long Laotaitai's revelation.

It overturned their understanding.

In many people's hearts, the big aunt is a hardworking old mother who only bears the toil, without enjoying life.

Liu Haizhong, Yan Fugui and their ilk also think so.

They deceived all over a hundred people in the Siheyuan.

The big aunt's methods are evidently superb.

"You worry that my old lady will say something that ruins Yi Zhonghai's reputation, so you deliberately use the lost son as an excuse, creating an opportunity for Yi Zhonghai to act; he also seized this opportunity, using my old lady's supposed scheme of him losing his son to act against me—isn't it just because you don't want me to leak the truth? Today my old lady insists on leaking it again."

Long Laotaitai's face showed a look of satisfaction.

In contrast to that.

It is that Yi Zhonghai's face turned deathly pale.

But the big aunt remained as she was before.

Qin Huairu didn't know if she had sensed the reason; upon hearing Long Laotaitai would expose Yi Zhonghai's scandal, she subconsciously linked it to herself, her body slightly trembling, giving an air of guilt without being accused.

Behind her, Jia Zhangshi.

Her eyes were blazing.

Qin Huairu's body language and expressions seemed to confirm Long Laotaitai's revelation.

Shameless Qin Huairu.

You actually messed around with Yi Zhonghai, you've lost all face for the Jia family.

Jia Zhangshi's fists were clenched tight, but then they relaxed.

Interests are urgent.

Yu Li had a thought: what kind of people live in the Siheyuan? She tightly grabbed Shazhu's hand.

"You all want to know what I'm going to say; I tell you, in our Siheyuan there is a steward who has done something unbecoming of a person."

Yan Fugui is fine.

Idle.

But Liu Haizhong panicked.

He hastily explained in a sentence.

"Not me."

"I didn't say you."

"Also not me, Yan Fugui."

"I also didn't say you."

Three managers, after excluding the second and third elders, only Yi Zhonghai, the first elder, remained.

"This person is Yi Zhonghai; he and his disciple's wife, that is Qin Huairu, have an ambiguous relationship. Even more unexpected to you all is that Xiao Dang, Huaihua, the club, and also Bangeng are not blood of the Jia Family; they are Yi Zhonghai's descendants."

The pleasure of revenge.

They sought out Long Laotaitai.

The whole person inexplicably felt exalted.

Originally, Long Laotaitai suspected the club and Huaihua; after confirming that Yi Zhonghai was related to these two children, but when the words reached her lips, she inexplicably added the names of Xiao Dang and Bangeng.

It was definitely superfluous.

Without Xiao Dang and Bangeng, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu would panic.

Some things are true.

But when Long Laotaitai mentioned Xiao Dang and Bangeng, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu cleverly realized that Long Laotaitai's suspicion of them being involved together lacked substantive evidence; everything was merely speculation.

Since it's merely speculation.

Then it seems not so important.

It's just a matter of making excuses.

Who let you have no evidence.

"You might say this isn't true, but my old lady tells you it is true—an indisputable fact: one is the master, the other is the disciple's wife; think about it, what is this?"
