Liu Jing's victory in this battle allowed her to firmly establish herself in the courtyard, and no one dared to bully her just because she was a single mother and orphan. Gradually, everyone realized that as long as they didn’t provoke Liu Jing, she was actually quite easy to get along with. Over time, they began to accept her, but the Jia family viewed Liu Jing as if she were their enemy. Every time Yi Zhonghai saw Liu Jing, he would let out a cold snort.
Si Geng had suffered an injury from Liu Jing’s strike, which led to inflammation in his tendons, causing him pain that left him howling at home all day. This was also a reason why the Jia family harbored resentment towards Liu Jing.
As night fell, families in the courtyard prepared a hearty meal to celebrate. Wang Jiefang's family made radish and meat dumplings, and in addition to the dumplings, he also cooked a table full of delicious dishes. After enjoying a wonderful meal together, the family gathered around to listen to the radio. The radio was something Wang Jiefang had found in his space! Although the exterior looked like it belonged to this era, the internal components were all products from the twentieth century, so its quality was unquestionable.
Wang Jiefang claimed he had bought it himself and said that the tickets were given by a leader while he was out cooking. Since getting this radio, almost every day someone would come over to listen with Grandma. On this particular night, Grandma's room was filled with people gathered around the radio, and Wang Jiefang didn’t have the heart to chase them away. He figured they could stay and listen; after all, once midnight passed, there would be no more programs on the radio, and they would leave on their own.
On New Year’s Day, Wang Jiefang was sound asleep when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside his door. He focused his mental energy and took a look—what a surprise! That idiot Sha Zhu was trying to pry open his door with a thin piece of iron! Wang Jiefang instantly woke up! He saw Si Geng and Xiao Dang standing around Sha Zhu; it didn’t take much for him to understand what Sha Zhu was up to.
Quietly getting off the bed, he grabbed his blind cane and moved behind the door. As soon as the door was pried open, he jabbed forward with his cane! Sha Zhu hadn’t even had time to celebrate opening the door before he was met with a swift strike!
Wang Jiefang knew it was winter and everyone was bundled up in thick cotton clothes; getting hit wouldn’t hurt too much. So he aimed directly for Sha Zhu’s groin! With that jab, Sha Zhu immediately doubled over in pain. Si Geng was taken aback by this sudden turn of events—everything seemed fine among the other people in the courtyard; how did Sha Zhu end up lying down here?
“Sha Zhu! What are you sneaking around for early in the morning?” Wang Jiefang shouted after delivering his blow! Many onlookers who had followed Sha Zhu now burst into laughter at his misfortune.
“Haha! Sha Zhu, looks like you’ve gotten your comeuppance for trying to sneak into my house for New Year’s money!”
This voice belonged to Xu Damao! Sha Zhu was too busy writhing in pain to respond to Xu Damao.
Hearing the commotion, Yi Zhonghai rushed over. Upon seeing Sha Zhu curled up on the ground, he turned angrily towards Wang Jiefang: “Wang Jiefang! Did you hit Sha Zhu again? Don’t you have any sense of law?”
“Call the police! We must call the police!”
Yi Zhonghai had long wanted to deal with Wang Jiefang; now that he saw Sha Zhu injured, he felt it was an opportunity. In his eyes, no matter what the reason was, hitting someone was wrong. He planned to leverage connections at the hospital to exaggerate Sha Zhu's injuries so that Wang Jiefang would face consequences.
Once Wang Jiefang got arrested, Yi Zhonghai thought he might just be able to take control of this courtyard!
