The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Chapter 1081 Jingru's life hurts her cousin
"Shazhu came, said hello to Teacher Ran, and left~!"

Banggeng looked up at his mother, and when he saw that she didn't say anything and stood there in a daze, he pulled his sleeves and ran away.

"Don't worry about it. Hurry up and make dinner. You come back so late every day. If someone doesn't know you, they would think you're at a meeting at the United Nations~!"

Jia Zhang probably understood why her daughter-in-law asked this, and she poked the awl into the sole of her shoe viciously and sneered coldly.

She has also noticed the changes in her daughter-in-law recently, and she mainly wants to remind her to be more honest.

Last time, Liu Lan exposed his plan and he had already lost face and dignity, but he still tried to stir up trouble all day long.

Obviously, my family is rich and our wages have gone up. Even if we don't eat meat every meal, we can still afford at least half a pound of meat a month. We can also afford fresh vegetables. Now we are completely free from hardship~!

She had to pretend to be pitiful and ask other families for help. Although Jia Zhang also liked to take advantage, she was not as bad as Old Yan.

She is a person who enjoys life. Lately, she has been eating steamed buns and corn porridge every day. Even she feels a little irritated. She feels like she is living the life in Paoju Hutong again.

"Take out Dongxu's compensation, and I'll pay a portion of it. We can buy an improved house, so I don't need to worry about these things anymore~!"

Qin Huairu stirred the porridge in the pot with an iron spoon and saw bubbles appearing on the bright yellow porridge. She quickly covered the pot and turned down the air door of the stove a little.

"What are you daydreaming about in broad daylight? Don't even think about my retirement money~!"

As soon as the issue of money was mentioned, Jia Zhang immediately became furious. She got off the kang and stared at her daughter-in-law viciously, as if she would rush forward and start a fight if she mentioned it again.

Twisted and bizarre, Jia Zhang's personality has changed drastically since he was caught and paraded through the streets and then forced into the basement of the artillery bureau. The only thing that hasn't changed is probably his understanding of money.

He squeezed it even tighter. After spending a small part of it, he even wanted to get it back from Qin Huairu.

That’s right. As soon as he was released from prison, something bad happened to the Jia family. The son he valued most was gone. If it weren’t for his grandson as a support, he would have collapsed mentally long ago.

It was only after his son left that he discovered that his daughter-in-law was quite wild. She said she would marry whomever she wanted and said she was after the other person's money. Who knows if she really was after him or just pretending. She wouldn't be surprised if she ran away with someone else one day.

"Banggeng will be grown up in two years, and we will have to share the same bed. Can you make plans for the future?"

Qin Huairu felt annoyed watching the evil mother-in-law who was ready to deal with her at any time. Sometimes, she really felt that Yi Zhonghai should have taken her, the mother-in-law, away at that time.

It was obviously she who did the evil, but in the end, she is still alive and well. It is true that good people don't live long, but evil stays for thousands of years.

"I'm planning on it. Isn't that how other families live? Tie a rope in the middle and hang a curtain to separate them. Besides, he's still young and immature. We need to wait at least two or three years before we can consider these things~!"

Jia Zhang snorted coldly and clenched the awl in her hand. The sharp tip flashed coldly under the light.

"Forget it. I can't explain it to you clearly. In two or three years, by then everyone else will have moved into the new building, and you won't be able to buy it even if you have the money~!"

Seeing that the food was almost cooked, Qin Huairu brought the corn porridge to the table and distributed the bowls and chopsticks. She had no appetite to eat, so she wiped her hands with a rag, opened the door, and walked straight to the backyard.

Seeing that her daughter-in-law was not leaving the yard, Jia Zhang didn't care much. She just saw that there was not even any salted radish on the table, and she didn't enjoy her meal at all.

The lights in He Yuzhu's house were off, and Qin Huairu guessed that he had not returned yet.

Ever since Zhuzi went to Fengze Garden to apply for a job, his work and rest time was different from that of the steel rolling mill. The restaurant started late and got off work late. Seeing that Liu Lan was not there, Qin Huairu simply went directly to the backyard.

I went to see my cousin.

That’s right, Qin Huairu was like a dog-skin plaster, and Qin Jingru was similar, except that she took a ride home. During that time, she still stayed behind and ate in an ugly manner.

Qin Huairu lowered her head and rushed directly to the deaf old lady's room. She knocked on the door and found that it was open. The person was not in the room at all.

Qin Huairu, who was just about to leave, had her pupils shrank when she saw the clothes hanging on the bed and on the clothesline in the room.

When Jingru went to the city, she was carrying a small cloth bag containing clothes for changing, but it was obvious that the fashionable and beautiful clothes hanging there were not brought from the countryside.

There is newly bought cloth near the head of the bed. Wow, my cousin’s personal quality has improved significantly after not coming here for a while. And the improvement is not just a little bit~!

"This Ma Hua, is he really willing to spend money?" Under the bed, there was a pair of Liberation shoes with shoelaces tied up, also brand new. Judging from the size, they were obviously for men. There was no doubt that they were bought for his father-in-law, that is, his uncle.

Ma Hua not only spent money on Qin Jingru, but also took care of their family.

Qin Huairu felt a little sad and couldn't help but think of herself. When Dongxu and she got married, he never thought of buying these things for his father-in-law.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Qin Jingru, holding a large bowl, finally didn't have to pretend like she did at Sha Zhu's house. She ate so happily that her cheeks were as full as a big hamster.

Looking at her sister in her room, stunned, Qin Jingru felt extremely comfortable inside. She really enjoyed the feeling of showing off in an unnatural way.

In the past, she would show this expression to her sister's family when she went to the city, but now, she has made up for it.

"Why did you two buy all these things? Don't you plan to live like this?"

Saving money has become a habit. Looking at the colorful clothes in the room, Qin Huairu subconsciously calculated how much money they would cost.

"No, I helped the Material Bureau transport goods to the construction site a few days ago. When they heard that I was getting married soon, they gave me a few cloth coupons that were about to expire. It didn't cost much~!"

At this point, Qin Jingru straightened her back involuntarily. Looking at the factory uniform on her sister, she felt for the first time that the style and color of her sister's clothes were not as good-looking.

"Ma Hua said that since we have to buy tickets for the wedding anyway, we might as well use them. If we want to use them, he will be happy to spend them on me!"

When Qin Huairu heard this, her face turned green immediately. She touched the cloth with a sour look, as if she had eaten a piece of fly shit, especially when she saw that the vegetables in her cousin's big bowl covered the rice, and she was eating fine grains.

"How much is his salary?"

Suddenly, Qin Huairu found that she seemed to have overlooked a problem, that is, she had overlooked Ma Hua's salary. Since Ma Hua moved from the third canteen to drive a truck, has his salary increased?

"Over 40 years old, don't ask so many questions, they are drivers, they also get subsidies when they go out to drive~!"

Qin Jingru's tone was very casual. The salary and subsidies were Ma Hua's money and they would not touch it.

She just had to follow the car. All the money collected along the way was hers anyway. Although their lives were not rich, at least they had enough to eat and drink. There was no need to save money. The driver consumed a lot of physical energy, and Qin Jingru would not be stingy in this regard.

She did not tell the truth about the cloth coupons, but instead exchanged them for the national food coupons given when she was working as a driver. Now, Jingru finally became more careful and realized that she had to hide something from her sister.

She completely disdained the food at her sister's house. She still had money on her hands, so she was eager to get married quickly and settle down with Ma Hua. Only when she could put money in her pocket could she be realistic.

After hearing this, Qin Huairu finally realized the difference in living standards caused by the difference in wages. It seemed that they were the only family in the yard.

Not to mention the Li family who can eat meat every now and then, even the Liu family has eggs for every meal, and the smell of oil is everywhere. As for the Yan family, why can Yu Li go to Li Feng's house for dinner?

"When are you going to get married?"

The more she thought about it, the more sour she felt. Qin Huairu didn't want to stay in the room anymore, so she walked out and asked Qin Jingru.

"His father is at the dock and can't spare the time, so I want to get the certificate from him first, and then we can do it later~!"

"I have found a chef to cook the banquet for you. You can give him some money as a gift. He is a new chef in the factory. Ma Hua should have eaten the dishes he cooked before. Maybe he even knows him~!"

Before Qin Jingru could object, Qin Huairu interrupted her.

As an elder sister, and no one from her cousin's family is in the city, she is helping Jingru arrange her marriage. If Ma Hua doesn't agree to such a small matter, then they will really fall out.

"Okay, okay, okay, I got it. Wait a minute, I'll go back and tell him, who's the new cook?"

Qin Jingru was a little impatient, but didn't dare to refuse. She looked at her sister with some displeasure.

"Nan Yi, from the third canteen, was the one Li Feng invited to his wedding. He's a very good cook. Don't worry, he won't hire a fool for you~!"
