The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Chapter 971 "Spring" of Zhuzi

Beixinqiao, trust store.

Qin Jingru, who walked along Dongzhimen Street, flew up with joy.

Saving twenty-five cents on the ticket was as exciting to her as a big victory.

Whatever is saved is hers. You know, when she first met Li Feng, she was so poor that she couldn't even afford candied haws.

When I walked to Beixinqiao, I saw an old lady pushing a popsicle cart, and the greedy girl ran across the road in a panic, holding the five cents tightly in her hand, almost sweating.

"Here's a, um, milk popsicle~!"

She handed the money to the old lady with a smile. Qin Jingru couldn't wait to take the ice cream stick and carefully tore open the wrapping paper of the ice cream. Before throwing it away, she carefully licked everything on the paper clean with her tongue.

With a look of satisfaction on her face, she was so happy that her eyes were bent into the shape of crescents. She was finally able to achieve the freedom of popsicles. She had not tasted this feeling for a long time.

I go to the countryside to sell popsicles only a few times a summer. In the wooden box behind the bicycle are Qin Jingru's beautiful childhood memories. The most popular type is white sugar popsicles, which are as cheap as three cents.

But the Qin family rarely buys one. Even if they buy one, several children in the family have to share it. More often, they have to wait for the "double rush" season and rely on picking up rice ears, delivering grain handles, etc. to make temporary advances. Only with work points and dividends can you buy a single one.

My dear, children from every family can do these jobs, so at that time, you can see rows of children sitting on the field ridge, all holding popsicles in their hands and sucking greedily.

With two cents left, Qin Jingru stuffed this "huge sum" into the seam of her clothes with a smile, enjoying the regret that she had not enjoyed when she was a child.

After eating, her mouth was filled with the smell of milk, she threw away the popsicle, and continued to skip towards Nanluogu Lane.

"Hey, whose girl is so handsome~!"

"Sister Qin Huairu from the Jia family~!"

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything~!"

When the aunts and uncles enjoying the cool air at the door saw the strange girl, they all looked at her with kind eyes and made comments. When the third aunt opened her mouth, they immediately withdrew their words and chose to remain silent.

As long as the matter involves the Jia family, especially Qin Huairu and Widow Qin, they don't want to talk more and seem very taboo.

In the past, there was Jia Dongxu, who was killed by a machine tool, and in the later, there was Xu Damao, who was sentenced to more than ten years in prison. Yesterday, He Yuzhu was shocked and lost his job. Typical examples are in front of them.

It can be said that he is already well-known among the neighbors. He is a disaster star, a broom star, and a bad guy. Anyway, he has it all, but he definitely doesn't have a good word to say.

Qin Jingru, who had just arrived, didn't know this, but she felt that the adults and aunts at the door didn't dare to look at her.

When they entered the room, they met Yu Li who was enjoying the cool air with her baby. Qin Jingru started praising her as if she had honey on her lips.

"Sister, you are so beautiful, and the baby is beautiful too~!"

"It's so beautiful. You should have one too~!"

Yu Li hadn't gone to work for a long time, and she didn't feel comfortable letting her mother-in-law take care of the children. She was in a bad mood. She was shaking her cattail leaf fan and didn't show a good look towards Qin Huairu's sister.

Qin Jingru stuck out her tongue, unable to answer the words, pinched the child's cheek and ran to the middle courtyard.

"Sister, sister, I'm coming~!"

As soon as they arrived in the hall, Qin Jingru's voice reached the middle courtyard.

"Clang~!"

The door of He's house swayed from side to side, and Qin Jingru seemed to see a big black mouse getting in. She didn't care and rushed towards Jia's house.

When I arrived at the door, I was dumbfounded. There was not even a place to stay inside. It was so packed with furniture and stuff.

"Your sister, you've gone to work~!"

Jia Zhang's gloomy voice came from inside the house. Qin Jingru nervously tugged on the strap of the small bag and looked at the pile of bags in the room, feeling a little at a loss.

"Then, where will I stay tonight?"...

Inside the He family house.

The big rat that got in just now was not He Yuzhu.

Qin Jingru really came, and he was the most nervous one. Putting aside the matter of losing his job, he was currently wiping his hair in the mirror~!

Needless to say, after getting my hair cut, my image was a little better, but only a little better. I put on the gray shirt from the factory, blue trousers, and the polished leather shoes on the bottom of the bed. Feel a little more energetic.

He was even more at a loss than Qin Jingru now. He knew that this girl would come today, and he was mentally prepared. However, when she actually came, he was still a little numb.

The sound outside the house is very sweet, but the sweeter it is, the less energetic Dazhu is at this time. The self-confidence when working and not working are completely different.

First, he lay down in front of the window, with only a pair of eyes exposed. He looked at the petite figure in the courtyard. His eyes straightened instantly. He turned around and leaned against the door. He covered his heart with his right hand, probably Worry about it jumping out.

After pacing back and forth at home, pinching his throat and cheering himself up, Dazhu pretended to be calm and walked to the door.

Leaning one arm on the door, he made a pose that he thought was acceptable, and stiffly greeted the little girl in the courtyard.

"Ah, Jingru is here~!"

When she heard someone calling her name, Qin Jingru tilted her head and looked at the strange man at the door. After looking at it for a long time, she remembered that that man seemed to be a cook.

"Why didn't you go to work?"

One sentence made He Yuzhu choke and cough. The posture that he had been holding on for a long time suddenly collapsed like a deflated rubber ball.

The key point is that this matter is not easy to explain. He Yuzhu really regrets it. Why was he kicked out yesterday for no reason? Otherwise, today would have been such a good opportunity to meet.

"We'll wait until your sister comes back. I'll show you first. The place where you'll stay tonight has been prepared for you~!"

Unable to find anything to talk to, Dazhu rubbed his hands and walked out of the house. Qin Jingru subconsciously took a step back.

"You're clean today~!"

I remember that just now, the cook had greasy long hair, greasy clothes, and looked greasy in every gesture. Not to mention today, He Yuzhu's image did make Qin Jingru look more comfortable and pleasing to the eye.

He Yuzhu wiped his nose in embarrassment. He felt that this girl was good at everything, but she just didn't open or pick up the pot she liked. He hesitated and led her to the backyard.

"Why is my sister's house so messy? It's full of stuff. How can I have lunch at noon~!"

Pulling on the backpack strap, Qin Jingru swung the small satchel in front of her, just in time to ask He Yuzhu the question she just asked.

"This family, Xu Damao knows, your second brother-in-law, their things~!"

"Second brother-in-law?"

Qin Jingru frowned in confusion, but followed the direction of He Yuzhu's finger and looked at Xu Damao's house. It looked really cute.

"Don't worry about it for now. I have lunch there. You can check the accommodation first to see if it's suitable~~!"

He Yuzhu patted the door of the back room, opened it, and motioned for Qin Jingru to take a look.

"It's a bit small, smaller than my home~!"

The same is true inside the house. The room itself is not big, and it is piled with things in a mess. It is barely enough for a bed to sleep on. Qin Jingru curled her lips after looking at it. Compared with the plank bed made of stools where she slept before, it was better, but Not many good ones either.

"Ahem, go to the back, there is a big house to live in, come on, you are hungry, the crucian carp and tofu are stewed in the pot, I also cut off half a catty of fat, I am waiting for you~!"

Looking carelessly, He Yuzhu forced a smile and continued to lead Qin Jingru to his home. Who knows, the little girl jumped to her "second brother-in-law"'s house and took a look inside for a long time.

"Why are the things here moved away? Wouldn't it be good for me to live in it?"
