~5 min read 918 words

The next morning.

Ping'an took Sun Tiezhu, hired people to push two flatbed carts, and transported a portion of the pumpkins back, preparing to put them in the courtyard to facilitate nearby sales.

"Stop, Wan Ping'an, what are you doing pushing so many pumpkins?"

Just arrived at the courtyard gate.

He was blocked by Jia Zhangshi.

"What are you arguing about?"

Before Wan Ping'an could answer, Yi Zhonghai appeared "in time".

"I want to push the pumpkins into the courtyard, is there a problem?"

The beasts were looking for trouble.

Wan Ping'an wasn't surprised at all.

He got rich, the beasts were all jealous, it would be strange if they didn't look for trouble.

"Ping'an, this is your fault."

"You're going to pile the pumpkins in the courtyard, right?"

"The courtyard is a public area, not yours alone, if you want to occupy it, you must pay rent, or use pumpkins to offset the rent."

Yi Zhonghai smiled.

He found an opportunity to retaliate against Wan Ping'an.

"Rent?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"The courtyard belongs to everyone, it belongs to everyone, and I have a share, why can't I put the pumpkins in the courtyard?"

Wan Ping'an questioned coldly.

The noise attracted many people to watch the fun; hearing Yi Zhonghai ask Wan Ping'an to pay rent and use pumpkins to offset the rent, many people's eyes lit up.

Wan Ping'an's pumpkins were too fragrant.

Several families ate steamed pumpkin last night, they were all greedy, and they all wanted to eat!

"You said it yourself, the public area belongs to everyone, why shouldn't you pay rent if you occupy it?"

Yi Zhonghai seized Wan Ping'an's slip of the tongue.

"The First Elder is right, the public area belongs to everyone, we can't let you occupy it alone."

"Wan Ping'an, if you don't pay rent, don't even think about going in."

"If you dare to push the pumpkins in, we will throw them out."

Shazhu stood out to make trouble.

He hated Wan Ping'an.

If it weren't for Wan Ping'an, could He Daqing punish him to flip the ladle for an extra hour every day?

Wan Ping'an frowned, it was a bit difficult to handle, but then he smiled; he thought of a good way, to treat them the way they treated others.

"Yes, throw them out!"

Jia Zhangshi strongly agreed, staring at the pumpkins on the two flatbed carts, her eyes shining.

"Yi Zhonghai, the public area belongs to everyone, no one can occupy it alone, whoever uses it must pay rent, that's what you said, right?"

"If you don't pay rent, throw the things out, right?"

Wan Ping'an questioned with a sneer.

"Yes!"

Yi Zhonghai vaguely felt something was wrong.

But for a moment, he couldn't think of where the problem was?

"I ask you, did you pay rent? Did Shazhu pay rent? Did the Jia family pay rent?"

Wan Ping'an asked three questions in a row.

"I don't use the public area, what rent should I pay?"

Yi Zhonghai's unease grew stronger.

But more and more people were watching, so he had to bite the bullet and continue; he couldn't slap his own face.

"The First Elder is right, I don't use the public area, why should I pay rent?"

"Didn't pay!"

Jia Zhangshi and Shazhu admitted at the same time.

"Good!"

"Very good!"

"Everyone saw it, and everyone heard it, the First Elder's new rule."

"Whoever uses the public area in the courtyard must pay rent, and if they don't pay rent, everything in the public area will be thrown out."

"First Elder, I summarized it correctly, right?"

"You must answer me clearly, if I summarized it wrong, and there's no need to pay rent, I will immediately push the two carts of pumpkins into the courtyard."

Wan Ping'an stared dead at the three of them.

"That's right!"

"Must pay rent, otherwise throw them out."

Jia Zhangshi answered quickly.

Now that it had come to this, Yi Zhonghai could only nod.

"Wan, your pumpkins can't enter the courtyard, get out!"

Shazhu was very proud.

Wan Ping'an smiled.

He suddenly rushed into the courtyard with big strides, running very fast!

Yi Zhonghai was confused, what was Wan Ping'an running for?

Jia Zhangshi and Shazhu were also a bit confused.

Before they could react, Wan Ping'an ran out, holding a table, two quilts, and some wet clothes in his arms.

Before anyone could react, he threw them directly into the ditch.

"My table."

Yi Zhonghai screamed.

"My quilt."

Jia Zhangshi shrieked.

"My clothes."

Shazhu roared.

"What are you yelling about?"

"I'm just executing the new rules of the courtyard."

"Yi Zhonghai's table, placed in the courtyard in front of the door, is a public area, he admitted he didn't pay, so according to the new rules, it should be thrown away."

"The Jia family's quilt, Shazhu's clothes, are all drying in the public area, they also said they didn't pay rent, should I keep them instead of throwing them away?"

Wan Ping'an looked at the three of them triumphantly.

The neighbors were in an uproar.

"Wan Ping'an, if you dare to throw our clothes, I'll beat you to death!"

Shazhu was the most impulsive, and he was the first one who couldn't help it.

Slap!

Wan Ping'an flicked his hand and slapped Shazhu to the ground.

"Wan Ping'an, what are you doing?"

"You threw our clothes, and hit Shazhu, if you don't give me an explanation, don't blame me for bullying the young with the old."
