Chapter 81: Bang Geng Wants to Eat Meat

Outside the Siheyuan.

Jia Zhangshi had already returned in glory; at this moment, she was still as fat-headed and big-eared as ever. It seemed she had put on quite a bit of weight in prison, as the food there was actually pretty good.

It was just that she swayed as she walked, and it looked like she had broken several ribs, but her complexion was still as vigorous as a dragon or tiger. As soon as she returned, she shouted loudly, "Old lady is finally released! It's still best at home, still best at home."

At the entrance of the Front Courtyard of the Siheyuan, Qin Huairu stood with a large belly, leading Bang Geng beside her and holding Xiaodang, while even Jia Dongxu, who had long since become a cripple, crawled out.

"Mom! You're finally back. You don't know how much grief I've suffered since you left; our family's house was even swapped!"

Jia Dongxu cried and wiped his tears, incessantly recounting Zhao Gangzi's evil deeds against their Jia Family.

Qin Huairu also added fuel to the fire on the side, saying that Zhao Gangzi cursed Jia Zhangshi at home every day and bullied her precious grandson Bang Geng daily, not even knowing how to give him a single melon seed.

Jia Zhangshi first glanced at Qin Huairu's protruding belly, her eyes rolling around as she wondered what she was thinking, then she cursed, "What's the use of telling me? This dog thing hasn't been working against us for just a day or two. Old lady went to prison because of him!"

"It's all because you lot are spineless and keep letting others bully you!"

Jia Zhangshi muttered to herself, then took Bang Geng's hand and strode into the courtyard, while everyone else avoided them as if they had seen a plague god; there wasn't even anyone who came up to talk to them.

This couldn't be blamed on them; after all, Jia Zhangshi was a famous thief in the Siheyuan. She even dared to steal things like radios, so what was there that she wouldn't dare to steal?

Just as she reached the Middle Courtyard, Jia Zhangshi glanced at the house that belonged to their family, and her anger immediately flared up. This damn Zhao Gangzi actually dared to occupy their family's property!

Such a person should be struck dead by lightning and reincarnated as a beggar in the next life!

"Oh, isn't this Jia Zhangshi? I didn't expect you to actually get out, hehe."

Zhao Gangzi leaned against the doorway, holding a large duck leg in his hand, eating until his mouth was dripping with oil; it couldn't have been more fragrant.

Jia Zhangshi, however, had a look of resentment on her face.

Usually, she only ate steamed buns and coarse bran in prison, and if she choked, she could only drink a little water. She didn't expect this little brat to be living so luxuriously now, daring to eat meat in broad daylight!

"Let's wait and see. Since old lady is back, we'll settle old scores and new grudges together. I'll definitely not spare you, you brat!" Jia Zhangshi muttered in a low voice, not daring to let Zhao Gangzi hear.

But who was Zhao Gangzi? He could understand what she was saying just by looking at the shape of her mouth. He immediately gave a devious smile, and the duck leg in his hand tasted even better; he even sucked on the bones.

Jia Dongxu, who had followed along, couldn't hold back anymore and pointed directly at Zhao Gangzi, cursing loudly, "What are you putting on an act for? Isn't it just a duck leg? As if no one else can afford to eat one. Sooner or later, you'll choke to death, you dog thing!"

"Dad, I want to eat the duck leg!"

Upon hearing this, Bang Geng was so happy he almost jumped up. He hurriedly grabbed Jia Dongxu's hem, making a scene and clamoring to eat the duck leg.

Jia Dongxu was already in a bad mood, and being pestered by Bang Geng like this, he couldn't hold back anymore. With a backhand slap, he struck Bang Geng, spinning him around on the spot like a spinning top.

"Eat, eat, eat! All you know is eating! Still want to eat a duck leg, why don't you eat your mother's leg!"

"How did I, your father, give birth to a thing like you!"

Jia Dongxu cursed loudly.

At this moment, he wished so much that what was in Qin Huairu's belly was a boy; otherwise, just based on this little moron in front of him, his Jia Family would definitely have no descendants.

"Don't hit my grandson! See if I don't slap you!" Seeing this, Jia Zhangshi hurriedly shielded the wailing Bang Geng behind her. After all, he was her only biological grandson, and whether the one in that little slut's belly was even the Jia Family's seed was not certain!

"Mom, Bang Geng is like this now because you spoiled him."

Jia Dongxu was a bit displeased.

Qin Huairu stood to the side, not daring to make a sound.

"I don't care, I don't care, I just want to eat meat, sob sob sob..." Bang Geng hugged Jia Zhangshi's thigh and threw a tantrum, crying and making a scene to eat meat.

Now even Jia Zhangshi was at a loss.

She also wanted to eat meat, but the key was where to get it?

Zhao Gangzi looked at such a "warm" family and couldn't help but sigh. Then he walked into the room and took out another duck leg. Bang Geng thought it was for him and hurriedly rushed over.

However, Zhao Gangzi glanced at him lightly, then kicked out, knocking Bang Geng to the ground, and continued to eat with great relish.

"Zhao Gangzi, are you even human? You actually bully even a child!"

Opposite them, Shazhu, having heard the commotion, also walked out and pointed directly at Zhao Gangzi, accusing him.

Facing Shazhu's accusation, Zhao Gangzi smiled and responded unpleasantly, "If you don't bully children, why don't you give those two chickens of yours to Bang Geng? You idiot!"

"Chickens? Where are there chickens?"

Upon hearing the sensitive word "chicken," Bang Geng's sealed bloodline seemed to awaken. He immediately jumped two feet high, looking everywhere for the chickens Zhao Gangzi mentioned.

Even Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu became spirited.

This made Shazhu panic. These two little hens hadn't even warmed up in his hands yet, and he hadn't even eaten a single egg; how could he possibly hand them over?

Besides, if he were to give them away, he would give them to Qin Huairu; giving them to Bang Geng and the others was not as good as keeping them to nourish his own body.

"No, no, I'm not recovered from my illness yet; these are for me to nourish my body!"

Shazhu shook his head frantically and hurriedly shielded the basket at his doorway behind him.

At this moment, Jia Zhangshi also saw it; this kid actually had two chickens at home, and they were actually hens!

It was perfect; she had just been released from prison, wouldn't it be wonderful to take them to nourish her body?

"Uncle Sha, I want to eat chicken!"

Bang Geng blinked his wise-looking big eyes and kept shaking Shazhu, clearly having forgotten the time Shazhu sprayed blood all over his face.

Jia Zhangshi also went over, drooling.

"Pillar, look at how fat these two chickens of yours are. Why don't you slaughter one to eat? It would just happen to help out our Jia Family."

"When the time comes, we'll spread your name; you're much better than that stingy ghost Bangzi!"

Jia Zhangshi's eyes radiated a green light, and she almost wanted to extend claws from her eyes; she couldn't wait to swallow those two chickens alive.

Half a year, a full half-year without tasting meat, let alone this precious chicken meat.

But today, Shazhu was the opposite of his usual self, directly and firmly refusing Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng. Not to mention the value of the two chickens themselves, just look at his current situation: he not only lost his job in the kitchen.

He was also assigned to clean the toilets, and he hadn't been to work for ten days or half a month, had no salary at all, and had spent quite a bit on medical expenses.

For the foreseeable future, he would have to rely on these two egg-laying chickens to survive.

"No, no, these chickens absolutely cannot be given to you, unless you bring money to exchange for them—three yuan each!"

Shazhu held up three fingers.
