Siheyuan: Master of the Fire, Eating Watermelons Online

Chapter 67 Hidden Identity, Jia Family Creditor
"What did I say?"

"Don't slander me, kid."

"Yiye is our Dongxu's master, how could I say bad things about him?"

"Wang Weiguo, don't stir up trouble here!"

"Our family has a good relationship with the uncle!"

"..."

Realizing that she had just said the wrong thing and that someone had heard it, Jia Zhang quickly denied it.

Being able to tell lies without blushing or getting nervous is the most basic operation and skill for Jia Zhang.

But she is not the only one who tells lies with open eyes.

Although he had clearly heard what Jia Zhang said just now, in order to favor the Jia family and maintain his own face, Yi Zhonghai frowned and said to Wang Weiguo: "Weiguo, don't talk nonsense if there is nothing."

He was already on guard, so as an old fox, how could Yi Zhonghai not see Wang Weiguo's purpose?

Moreover.

He was counting on Jia Dongxu for support in his old age for the rest of his life, so how could he possibly fall out with the Jia family?

Even though Jia Zhang's words just now made him feel a little uncomfortable, Yi Zhonghai could only pretend to be deaf and dumb and pretend that he heard nothing.

But in this way, Wang Weiguo became a "villain" who sowed discord.

"Well, if you didn't hear it, then you didn't hear it! I'm trying to help you out, so it's fine if you don't appreciate it." Faced with this result, Wang Weiguo sighed, "But if your ears really don't work well, you should find time to go to the hospital. You don't look too old, so there shouldn't be any problem."

As soon as he finished speaking, a few scattered laughs were heard from the crowd.

Jia Zhang's complaints and grumblings just now were not only heard by Wang Weiguo and Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai's pretending to be deaf and dumb doesn't mean that others don't know what the situation is.

"Wang Weiguo, stop cursing my master here. My master is in good health!"

Jia Dongxu stood up and retorted to Wang Weiguo, then looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, I, Jia Dongxu, have been stuck at the first-level fitter level for the past few years. It's not because my master didn't teach me well, nor is it because I don't have talent or ability. It's just that I'm unlucky.

Moreover, my master said that to work as a fitter, you must have a solid foundation. Even though I am only a first-level fitter now, but with a solid foundation, my strength has long been beyond compare.

For this year's assessment, my master and I signed up together. Not only does my master have to be promoted to level 7 fitter, I also have to pass the level 2 fitter assessment.

Not only that, I will also take the exams for level 3 and level 4 fitters... just wait and see!"

Being questioned about his incompetence and called a coward, Jia Dongxu naturally could not remain silent. He stood up on the spot to "clarify" and express his ambitions to boost his own prestige.

"I believe in Dongxu!"

Yi Zhonghai publicly supported and backed Jia Dongxu.

It was rare for Jia Dongxu to say such ambitious words. As a master, he couldn't possibly sabotage him on the spot, even for the sake of his own face.

However, Yi Zhonghai had made up his mind. He would be stricter with Jia Dongxu and give him more special training so as to help him pass the second-level fitter assessment in one go.

Jia Dongxu had even made it clear that if he failed again this time, it would not only be him who would be embarrassed, but also his master.

Following Yi Zhonghai's statement, those who originally wanted to complain about Jia Dongxu's bragging and his tongue being fluttered by the wind all tactfully kept silent.

Even Aunt Zhao, who had just been at odds with Jia Zhang, chose to remain silent.

If he continues to insist, then it will be the face of Yi Zhonghai, the big boss, that will be hurt.

However, few people chose to believe Jia Dongxu's bold words.

Even if he managed to pass the second-level fitter assessment this time, it was not something to brag about, not to mention that he wanted to be promoted to the third and fourth level fitter in the future.

Seeing the matter end like this, Wang Weiguo didn't think it was a big deal, since it wasn't him who started it anyway.

After glancing at the list that Yan Bugui had just written down, Wang Weiguo remembered that he had discovered that one family was missing, which happened to be the Jia family. He could not help but say to Jia Zhang: "Jia Zhang, everyone has helped, and your family is the only one missing. Why don't you help?"

Out of consideration for fairness, Wang Weiguo naturally could not miss the Jia family, otherwise he would be indebted to other families.

When the others heard this, they found out that they had all paid, but the Jia family had not paid a penny, so they immediately quit.

It's not just about the benefits, it's also about the disadvantages.

Everyone has been fleeced by Wang Weiguo, so why should your Jia family be an exception?

Immediately, everyone in the courtyard acted as Wang Weiguo's mouthpiece.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, everyone has helped, it would be unreasonable for you not to express your gratitude."

"that is!"

"We are all neighbors in the same courtyard. We should help each other when needed. We should not be too selfish."

"Jia Dongxu, your master has already given you a bicycle ticket. As his apprentice, you can't be too stingy, right?"

"That's right, not only do we have to help, but we can't help less."

"At least one piece is enough, right?"

"One? I think two is just right..."

"..."

Faced with the booing of these people in the courtyard, Jia Zhang, Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu, who were members of the Jia family, were all stunned.

Just when Jia Dongxu was embarrassed and didn't know how to respond or refuse, Jia Zhang jumped out again and yelled, "Wang Weiguo wants to go on a blind date, and you guys are pretending to be good people and want to help him. What does this have to do with our Jia family?
Whoever wants to pay can pay, but our Jia family won't pay. Only a fool would be the one to take advantage of this!"

When Jia Zhang said this, it was like firing a map cannon, blowing up everyone in the yard.

According to what she said, all the people who were fleeced by Wang Weiguo just now, including the old man, were fools.

Originally they were being morally blackmailed by Wang Weiguo, and they had to pay the money with a pinch of their noses, and they could also earn some fame and favors. However, with just two words from Jia Zhang, all of these were wiped out, and they were labeled as being taken advantage of.

"Jia Zhang, how do you talk?"

"It's fine if your family doesn't pay, but why are you cursing?"

"Exactly. How can you talk like that?"

"You're just a neighbor like that?"

"Jia Zhang, you've gone too far..."

"..."

With just two sentences, Jia Zhang provoked the public's anger, but she was not afraid at all. She directly used her momentum to debate with the scholars and said confidently: "Our Jia family has nothing to do with Wang Weiguo. He lives in the front yard and we live in the middle yard. We have no intersection at all.

Besides, when Wang Weiguo's parents went to the Northwest, we didn't promise to take care of him. Why are they looking for us now?"

After these words were spoken, the people who were originally indignant were speechless.

Given Jia Zhang's selfish character, she would naturally not rush to join in on things that have no benefit.

She doesn't try to be a good person like others.

Regardless of whether going to the Northwest to support construction is an honorable thing or not, it has nothing to do with her.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, others may be able to say these words, but you alone cannot!"

The person who spoke at this time was none other than Wang Weiguo, the real person.

"Why?"

Jia Zhang was indignant and glared at Wang Weiguo with her triangular eyes.

See this.

Wang Weiguo said with a smile: "Just because your family owes our Wang family a hundred yuan!"
