Yan Jiefang couldn't help but tease Wang Jiefang. In the past, when Wang Jiefang was constantly being invited out, it made him and the people in the courtyard extremely jealous. Now that no one was inviting him anymore, the courtyard folks had started to gloat over it!
"Heh, Yan Jiefang, even if no one invites me anymore, my salary is enough to support our family of three! Can your salary even support your wife?" Wang Jiefang's words struck a nerve with Yan Jiefang. It had been a year, and Yan Jiefang was still doing odd jobs. Not only did he earn less than Wang Jiefang, but he also worked much harder for it! It was infuriating!
At that moment, Jia Zhangshi passed by and shot a venomous glance at Wang Jiefang. "Wang the Blind, what does it matter if you earn more? You still can’t find a wife who lays eggs like a hen!"
Ever since Si Geng was taken away, Jia Zhangshi had harbored hatred towards Wang Jiefang's family. She had tried to confront him several times but had been dealt with each time. Jia Zhangshi seemed to have forgotten her previous humiliations and was now foolishly provoking Wang Jiefang again.
As soon as Jia Zhangshi spoke, before Wang Jiefang could respond, Yan Jiefang and Yu, along with the third Aunt Wang Xiulian, changed their expressions! They knew that Yu wasn’t pregnant either, and they felt that Jia Zhangshi's words were directed at their family!
Young and hot-headed, Yan Jiefang directly retorted to Jia Zhangshi: "Yes! Your hen lays eggs, but where is your precious egg now? If my family ends up with someone getting arrested and imprisoned, we’d rather not have it!"
After confronting Wang Jiefang, Jia Zhangshi immediately regretted it. She was genuinely afraid of Wang Jiefang's methods; last time she provoked him, she ended up biting her tongue! This was already the fifth time she had bitten her tongue after crossing paths with him. Even she realized this was his doing, though she didn’t know how he managed it!
Now seeing Yan Jiefang stepping in, she quickly shifted her target: "You little brat, what are you saying? My Si Geng is just a child; he was harmed by that bastard Shazhu! If you dare say anything about my grandson, I’ll fight you!"
In an attempt to cover her own guilt in front of Wang Jiefang, Jia Zhangshi lashed out at Yan Jiefang and charged at him. Yan Jiefang hadn’t expected Jia Zhangshi to pounce on him and ended up with several scratches on his face!
Faced with Jia Zhangshi's aggression, Yan Jiefang didn’t dare retaliate. He understood that if he touched her even slightly, she would surely accuse him of being a rogue!
Seeing her son in such a predicament made Wang Xiulian feel heartbroken; she grabbed Jia Zhangshi’s hair. Unable to attack Yan Jiefang due to being held back, Jia Zhangshi turned her aggression toward Wang Xiulian.
The two women began to tussle—one pulling hair while the other pinched—accompanied by shouts and curses as they fought!
Wang Jiefang found it pointless and decided to head back inside. He figured his wife must have heard Jia Zhangshi’s words too; he needed to comfort her!
Upon entering the house, he found his wife sitting on the kang, absentmindedly rubbing her belly while Grandma sat beside her, offering gentle reassurances.
"Wife," Wang Jiefang began to speak up to comfort her as well when suddenly Sun Yuwei looked at him with hesitation on her face and said, "Head of the family, I think I might be pregnant!"
"What?" Wang Jiefang momentarily couldn’t process what she meant!
It was Grandma who reacted quickly; she grasped Sun Yuwei’s hand excitedly and exclaimed, "Yuwei dear, are you really pregnant?"
"Grandma, I'm not sure yet. But I haven’t had my period for two months," Sun Yuwei replied hesitantly.
