Chapter 133: Mrs. Jia in forced labor, the Deaf Old Lady courting death
At high noon, Chen Tian made a table full of good dishes.
Pickled fish, twice-cooked pork, spicy diced chicken, braised ribs, stir-fried green beans and eggplant.
Fragrant and delicious Wuchang rice.
The entire courtyard could smell a mouth-watering aroma.
"You heartless little beast, may you die a horrible death!"
The Deaf Old Lady had a dark face; she picked up her cane, cursed, entered her room, and locked the door.
If she stayed in the courtyard any longer, she would surely be teased to death by hunger.
"Chen Tian's food is really good; he's really rich."
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, the two brothers, leaned against the window, their faces full of envy.
Liu Haizhong was so angry he wanted to give each of them a slap.
As a Level 7 fitter, his monthly salary wasn't low, but he had never eaten or drunk like Chen Tian.
Not to mention having a whole family to support, he also didn't have that many ration coupons.
Unlike Chen Tian, who had good things every single day.
A Level 3 engineer—the treatment is just different.
Liu Haizhong was single-mindedly focused on becoming the First Uncle of the Sihe Academy; now that Yi Zhonghai had fallen, Chen Tian was his biggest stumbling block.
Chen Tian was too young; the neighborhood office might very well let him be the First Uncle, and Liu Haizhong couldn't help but feel a bit excited.
"Hmph, you little brat, once I become the First Uncle, you'll have to come crawling to curry favor with me."
A trace of jealousy flashed in Liu Haizhong's eyes; by then, he would be the
Managing First Uncle of this courtyard. No matter how impressive Chen Tian was at the factory, once he returned to the courtyard, he would have to listen to him.
Middle courtyard, Yi Zhonghai's house.
First Aunt had cooked porridge for Yi Zhonghai, looking miserable.
"Old Yi, at least drink some porridge. You were locked up for a night before being released, and now you've been angered into a collapse; how can you go on without eating?"
Yi Zhonghai had a gloomy face and shook his head.
"I have no appetite."
"That dog Chen Tian, making such a big show at high noon—he's doing this on purpose to show me."
"I really misjudged him. I spent my whole life catching eagles, only to have my eyes pecked by a little sparrow."
Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to be impeached like this; he gripped the bedsheet tightly, wishing he could tear Chen Tian apart.
"The old lady told you not to get angry with Chen Tian for now; she will deal with Chen Tian."
"You should focus on recovering your health first."
First Aunt sighed, "Get up and eat; I'm going to take food to the Deaf Old Lady."
Yi Zhonghai lay on the bed, his face looking terrible.
The Jia family was another mess.
Seeing Bang Geng hid in the corner, smelling the aroma wafting from Chen Tian's house, his mouth watering.
"Mom, Chen Tian is making good food, so much meat!"
"Our family hasn't had meat for days; I want to eat meat!"
Seeing Bang Geng ran home, shouting and yelling.
Without Sha Zhu's lunchbox relief, there was no longer any meat on the Jia family's table.
Seeing Bang Geng was like a wolf; he felt miserable if he didn't eat meat for a meal.
In the pot, cornmeal buns were steaming.
Qin Huairu took a cabbage out of the cellar; cornmeal buns and stir-fried cabbage—this was the Jia family's lunch. ===== CHAPTER 134 =====
