Jia Zhangshi jogged all the way.

When they arrived at the Sun family's door, they used the front of their clothes as a pocket to grab handfuls of dried pumpkins, taking away more than half of the Sun family's dried pumpkins.

"Jia Zhangshi, why did you steal our dried pumpkin?"

Niu Niu ran out.

Seeing Jia Zhangshi stealing pumpkin roots, he scolded her in a childish voice.

Upon seeing that it was a little kid who was a little over three years old, Jia Zhangshi was stunned for a moment, but then continued to pretend and pushed Niu Niu away forcefully.

Wow!

Niu Niu fell and hurt herself, and burst into tears on the spot.

Sun Laogen's wife, Wang Dahua, was at home when she heard her daughter crying and ran out. She saw Jia Zhangshi stealing dried pumpkin, and Niu Niu was lying on the ground.

“She stole things. Jia Zhangshi stole things and even beat my daughter.”

"Jia Zhangshi, I'll fight you to the death."

Wang Dahua shouted and lunged at Jia Zhangshi.

Jia Zhangshi shuddered and let go, causing all the dried pumpkins to fall to the ground.

Swish!

Wang Dahua scratched Jia Zhangshi's face.

"Wang Dahua, how dare you scratch me?"

Jia Zhangshi was scratched and it hurt.

Angry!

He reached out to scratch Wang Dahua.

The two men struggled with each other.

Wang Dahua couldn't beat Jia Zhangshi.

The two women were about the same height, but Jia Zhangshi was lazy and gluttonous, and as fat as a ball. In terms of weight, even two Wang Dahuas couldn't compare to her.

"Jia Zhangshi, what are you doing?"

An older woman came out and scolded them.

"Jia Zhangshi, why aren't you stopping right now?"

Auntie Er also came out.

They all came over after hearing Wang Dahua's shouts.

"Auntie, Auntie, Jia Zhangshi stole our dried pumpkin! She's a thief! She even hit my daughter! Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

While arguing with Jia Zhangshi, Wang Dahua accused her of her crimes.

"Who stole it?"

"I borrowed it, I didn't steal it!"

Jia Zhangshi wouldn't be foolish enough to admit it.

"Both of you stop. I'll deal with this after my husband gets off work."

An older woman stepped in to break up the fight.

Jia Zhangshi was unwilling to stop, after all, she had the advantage and was able to overpower Wang Dahua!

She felt resentful after being scratched.

She gave the older woman a hard shove.

An elderly woman fell to the ground.

Second Aunt also came over to break up the fight. Seeing First Aunt fall to the ground, Second Aunt went to help First Aunt up, while Jia Zhangshi and Wang Dahua continued to wrestle.

"mom..."

When Sun Tiegang got off work, he saw his younger sister Niu Niu crying and his mother arguing with Jia Zhangshi (Wang Hao).

He kicked Jia Zhangshi to the ground.

"Mom, Niu Niu, what happened?"

Sun Tiegang was unaware of the situation.

"Jia Zhangshi stole our dried pumpkin and even pushed Niu Niu down!"

Wang Dahua was panting heavily.

"Jia Zhangshi, you dare to steal and even hit my mother! I'll beat you to death!"

Sun Tiegang turned around and rushed over.

Just as Jia Zhangshi got up, Sun Tiegang kicked her down again.

They gave him a good beating.

Jia Zhangshi's resistance was completely ineffective against a strong young man like Sun Tiegang, who beat her until she screamed in agony.

"Tie Gang, stop hitting him. Don't hurt him."

"Wait for the old man to come back and handle it."

The crowd began to break up the fight.

When trying to break up a fight, he would often "accidentally" step on Jia Zhangshi's leg or hand.

After the crowd separated the two.

Even Jia Zhangshi couldn't bear to look at her; it was too tragic!

There's a tooth hanging from the side!

"Wang Dahua, Sun Tiegang, you bullied me and knocked out all my teeth."

"You wait, when the old man gets off work, I'll have him stand up for me and teach you two bastards a lesson!"

After uttering those harsh words, Jia Zhangshi turned and ran away.

She knew she couldn't beat Sun Tiegang.

"Pooh!"

"Jia Zhangshi, have you no shame?"

"You came to my house to steal things and even pushed Niu Niu down. I could beat you to death and it would be pointless. And you still want to uphold justice?"

"If you truly want to uphold justice, you should be punished!"

Wang Dahua spat out a mouthful of blood.

Everyone nodded.

In the 1950s, law enforcement style was relatively rough.

It's normal for petty thieves and robbers to get beaten up after being caught by the victim; as long as they're not killed or maimed, it's not a big deal.

With Jia Zhangshi gone, there's no more excitement to watch.

Everyone dispersed.

"Mom, will Yi Zhonghai favor Jia Zhangshi?"

Sun Tiegang frowned.

He also worked at the steel rolling mill and heard some rumors that Yi Zhonghai thought highly of Jia Dongxu and was interested in taking him on as an apprentice.

Aren't the Jia and Yi families practically one family?

Chapter 119 Yi Zhonghai Favors the Jia Family, Wan Ping'an Makes His Move

The sun is about to set.

Wan Pingan returned to the Fourth Academy, but Sha Zhu was still not back. He was punished by having to go to the academy an hour earlier every morning and come back an hour later every night.

After saying goodbye to Yan Fugui, Wan Ping'an went home.

He just got home.

Yan Jiecheng quietly slipped over.

"Brother Ping An, something's happened."

"In the afternoon, Jia Zhangshi stole dried pumpkin from Sun Laogen's house, and a fight broke out. Sun Tiegang intervened and knocked out one of Jia Zhangshi's teeth."

Yan Jiecheng reports.

"What's the big deal?"

Wan Ping'an wasn't surprised at all.

In the 1950s, if a thief was caught, it wouldn't be a big deal if he lost a tooth or even broke a few bones.

At most, they'll just get a scolding from the police!

"No, it was just that an old man took pictures of my dad and Liu Haizhong. They were having a secret meeting, and it seems they were planning to deal with the Sun family."
