Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

Chapter 167 Jia Zhangshi Makes a Poisonous Oath to Yan Jiecheng

"Mom, let go!"

Yan Jiecheng forcefully broke free from the embrace of the three aunts. Jia Zhangshi's wild boar charge was already upon him. He had no time to dodge or make any effective resistance. He could only slightly protect his chest with his hands when Jia Zhangshi's wild boar charge sent him flying two meters away.

Jia Zhangshi's weight of over 200 pounds was no joke. This wild boar charge was powerful and heavy. In addition, Yan Jiecheng hadn't slept all night, had worked in the foundry workshop all morning, and had just run back from Yu Li's house. He was already exhausted. If it weren't for the hatred in his heart stimulating his brain, he would have collapsed by now.

All these factors combined led to Yan Jiecheng being hit and thrown into the air.

"It's solved!" the three women exclaimed.

"elder brother."

The three women helped Yan Jiecheng up. Yan Jiecheng's face was contorted. He had been hit in the stomach by Jia Zhangshi, and now he felt as if his intestines were about to come out, and he was in excruciating pain.

"Jia Zhangshi, why did you beat my Jiecheng? Look at what you've done to my Jiecheng!" the third aunt demanded.

Quite a few people had already arrived in the courtyard, and everyone was shocked by Jia Zhangshi's fighting prowess. She had sent a twenty-year-old young man flying two meters away in one go; that was just too amazing.

Qin Jingru's mouth gaped open, wide enough to fit a sausage. She had thought it was easy for Jia Zhangshi to beat her before, so how come Jia Zhangshi had become so fierce at beating others?

Jia Zhangshi's triangular eyes glared at the third aunt, and she burst into a tirade:

"Are you blind? Didn't you see that Yan Jiecheng, that damned little bastard, started it all? I was sleeping peacefully at home when this little bastard came and kicked my door. Look, he's even broken my door! I'm telling you, this isn't over until I get a hundred or two hundred yuan."

The third auntie actually saw that Yan Jiecheng had made the first move, but she trusted her son Jiecheng and believed that he wouldn't hit someone for no reason.

"Jiecheng, tell Mom what happened. Is it because Yu Li disagrees?"

Yan Jiecheng's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Jia Zhangshi, and he spoke in a deep voice:

"Yesterday, Yu Li and her mother came to our courtyard to inquire about something. They ran into Jia Zhangshi, who told Yu Li that I was wronged. She said that I strangled Wang Feng's chicken in the middle of the night and that we divide the pickled vegetables by the root when we eat. I went to Yu Li's house in the afternoon and was kicked out. She also told me not to go to Yu Li's house again."

Upon hearing this...

Everyone in the courtyard was shocked. They never expected that Jia Zhangshi would be so immoral. When her blind date came, she would speak ill of Yan Jiecheng in front of him. No wonder Yan Jiecheng was furious.

As for the matter of killing the chicken, and the fact that Yan Jiecheng was given the nickname "Chicken Killing Maniac," the people in the courtyard already knew about it, but everyone thought it was fake and that someone was maliciously spreading rumors, so they didn't dare to tell Yan's family.

Qin Jingru looked at Yan Jiecheng; he didn't seem like a chicken-killing maniac.

The third aunt's eyes turned red, and she glared at Jia Zhangshi, shouting sternly:

"Jia Zhangshi, how dare you ruin my family's arranged marriage? I'm not finished with you! Just you wait, when my husband Yan comes back, I'll make you pay the price."

Madam Jia glanced sideways at the third aunt and grumbled, "Did I say anything wrong? Don't you divide your pickled vegetables by the root? Did I wrong your family?"

"Even if it's true, is it something you should say? And what about your accusation that my family killed a chicken in the middle of the night?" the third aunt questioned.

"Your family divides the pickled vegetables by the root, that's a fact, I've already said it, what can you do about it?" Jia Zhangshi cursed.

"Yan Jiecheng, you little beast, don't think you've done it secretly. Let me tell you, the night you strangled Wang Feng's chicken, I went to the toilet in the middle of the night and saw you strangle Wang Feng's chicken with my own eyes."

boom.

Jia Zhangshi's words undoubtedly caused a huge uproar. Everyone in the courtyard looked at Yan Jiecheng in shock, and even Qin Jingru looked at him with a strange gaze.

The people in the compound thought it was just a rumor about Yan Jiecheng being a chicken-killing maniac. After all, they had lived in the compound for so long and knew Yan Jiecheng's character very well.

Now that Jia Zhangshi has witnessed it with her own eyes, the story of Yan Jiecheng killing the chicken is most likely true. No matter what, Jia Zhangshi wouldn't falsely accuse someone, would she?

"Jia Zhangshi, you're talking nonsense! This is slander! I didn't kill any of Wang Feng's chickens!" Yan Jiecheng shouted.

Yan Jiecheng simply did not believe that Jia Zhangshi had seen him kill the chicken with her own eyes; he clearly did not see anyone that night.

"Jie Cheng is right, Jia Zhangshi, this is slander. You say you saw my Jie Cheng strangle Wang Feng's chicken, do you have any evidence? Who else saw it?" the third aunt shouted angrily.

Hearing the questions from the Yan family, what evidence did Jia Zhangshi have? She was the only one present at the time, but she quickly came up with a solution.

"Fine, fine, Yan Jiecheng, you little beast, you dare to do it but not admit it, huh? I swear, if I'm lying, may my whole family suffer a terrible death. Yan Jiecheng, do you dare to swear that you didn't kill Wang Feng's chickens? If you dare to swear, I'll admire you."

"this……"

"Hahaha, you little beast, you dare not do it now? What do you have to say now?" Jia Zhangshi laughed loudly.

Seeing Yan Jiecheng's expression, everyone knew that he was definitely the one who did it.

Even Wang Feng was surprised. He had known for a long time that Yan Jiecheng had strangled his chicken, but he had sensed with his spiritual sense that Yan Jiecheng had lied that day. He never expected that Jia Zhangshi would actually see it with her own eyes.

Seeing this, the three aunts and Yan Jiefang were like ants on a hot pan, extremely anxious. Judging from Jiecheng's appearance, it was highly likely that he really did it. What should they do?

Seeing the surprised looks on everyone's faces, Yan Jiecheng panicked completely. If he was found out that he had killed the chicken, how would he dare to go out and meet people in the future?

And Wang Feng, he wouldn't be let off either. Thinking of all the consequences, Yan Jiecheng hardened his heart and shouted:

"Mrs. Jia, I didn't want to get involved in these feudal superstitions. You want me to swear an oath, right? Fine, I'll swear it to you right now. I, Yan Jiecheng, swear that I didn't kill Wang Feng's chicken. If I'm lying, may I drown in the latrine. Is that alright?"

"Fine, fine, you little beast, you dare to make such a vow? I give up! I'll just wait for you to drown in the latrine."

Jia Zhangshi is at a loss now; she has no evidence to offer. Now that Yan Jiecheng has sworn an oath, everyone will surely believe him.

Sure enough, after Yan Jiecheng made such a vicious oath, everyone in the courtyard believed him. However, since people on both sides had sworn oaths, who was telling the truth and who was lying?
