Courtyard House: My Long and Hard Body Makes Me Play with All the Women in the Courtyard

Surprisingly, Su Ting wasn't drunk.

Qin Huairu walked over to Su Ting, patted him on the shoulder, and said.

"Hey, you're still sober? I thought you were all drunk, so I came over to help you clean up."

When Su Ting came to his senses, he saw that it was Qin Huairu.

He remembered the old man who had just left, who knew what had happened but didn't seem to mind.

He pointed to the remaining food on the table and said to Qin Huairu.

"Sister Qin, you've come at the right time. I'm a grown man and I'm not very good at tidying up these things, so could you help me organize them?"

If you don't mind, please take these leftovers with you!

"Just wash the dishes and bring them back to me in a bit. I'll take the two old men home now."

"I don't mind, I don't mind. Who would complain about meat these days? I'll prepare it for you right away."

Qin Huairu hurriedly spoke, quickly helping Su Ting clear the table.

Su Ting remembered that there was still a small bowl of meat broth left in the pot, so he added.

"Oh, right, there's still some broth in the pot, you can take it with you!"

After saying that, he helped the drunken old man out the door without waiting for Qin Huairu's reply.

After taking Yan Bugui home, the third aunt looked at the drunken Yan Bugui and thanked Su Ting with a disappointed expression.

After exchanging a few polite words, Su Ting turned back to escort Liu Haizhong to the backyard.

As he passed by the Central Court, he glanced at Qin Huairu's house and was terrified—what was going on at this hour!

At that moment, at the window of the Jia family's house, Jia Zhangshi was peering out from the windowsill.

Her plump face had a pair of triangular eyes, which looked quite frightening.

Seeing Su Tingchao looking in their direction, they immediately drew the curtains and slipped back inside.

Su Ting shuddered and quickly quickened his pace to take Liu Haizhong home.

Seeing his slightly puffy face through his bangs, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

I hope he doesn't encounter any bad luck in his dreams.

Back at his front door, Su Ting saw Qin Huairu bending over, wiping the table.

The dishes were all washed clean, and the leftovers were set aside, so it seemed that the housework was basically done.

Slightly drunk, Su Ting felt a surge of heat and thought about telling Qin Huairu to go home quickly to take a shower and rest.

After all, tomorrow is the first official day of work.

"Sister Qin, go home as soon as you're done packing!"

"Just give me the pots and pans tomorrow morning. I drank too much today and I'm planning to rest now."

When Qin Huairu heard that Su Ting wanted to sleep and didn't mention the meat they had agreed to give her that afternoon, she was shocked.

He immediately turned around and approached Su Ting, saying...

"Little brother, we made a promise. When your sister comes to see you tonight, you have to give her meat."

Chapter Nine: Playing Poker

Su Ting smiled after hearing this, then closed the door and put his arm around Qin Huairu, teasing her.

"Sister, you still have leftovers, why do you need to borrow my 'thermometer'?"

Qin Huairu asked, puzzled, "What thermometer? I don't have a fever, why would I need your thermometer?"

Su Ting replied with a grin, "No, Sister Qin, I think you have a fever. Come on, let me take your temperature."

As he was about to start playing cards, Qin Huairu finally understood what he meant and struggled to get away from Su Ting.

However, Su Ting quickly shuffled the cards and then said to Qin Huairu.

"Sister Qin, do you want everyone to know about us?"

If you shout it out, I'll see what a widow like you is doing in my bachelor's room in the middle of the night.

Don't worry, I'm very fair. I'll give you the meat after the game.

Qin Huairu stared blankly at Su Ting, hardly believing that his 36-degree mouth could utter such cold words.

Looking at the stunned Qin Huairu, Su Ting quickly shuffled the cards and started a game.

The game started with four twos, which Qin Huairu couldn't handle since she didn't have any kings or queens.

With things having progressed to this point, Qin Huairu had no choice but to give up resisting.

Despite her good card skills, Su Ting easily broke through her defenses.

An hour later, Qin Huairu limped home carrying two plates of food.

He kept muttering curses under his breath, calling Su Ting a beast.

Oh dear, how could I have run into someone like this! Not only did I not get any meat, but I also lost five cents.

What kind of game is this, stopping halfway through?

I wanted to keep playing, but he wouldn't agree, saying he'd only play with me if I paid more. That's outrageous!

From now on, I'm afraid I'll have to go to Su Ting, since Su Ting is good in every way and is exactly 22 years old.

As soon as Qin Huairu stepped into the house, she was met with Jia Zhangshi's eyes, which were as lifeless as a dead fish.

Jia Zhangshi glared at her and said, "How could you bear to come back? Don't do anything to betray Dongxu."

Remember, you are a member of the Jia family while you are alive, and you will be a ghost of the Jia family when you die.

"You're so slow even when serving leftovers, do you really like that guy surnamed Su that much?"

Qin Huairu muttered to herself, "What are you talking about? This old guy isn't really dead yet! Your son just put on his hat."

But she still pretended to look pitiful as she spoke.

"Mom, what are you saying? I just went to the bathroom first, and then I went to Su Ting's house."

My third and second uncles were both there at the time, so what could I possibly do?

You think I want to go?! It's all for the leftovers.

As she spoke, she squeezed out a few tears, but Jia Zhangshi ignored them, rolled her eyes, and went into the house, muttering to herself.

"I hope that's true. I'll keep an eye on you. You lazy donkey on the millstone will produce a lot of shit and pee!"

As Qin Huairu watched Jia Zhangshi's departing figure, she muttered a curse under her breath, "You old hag."

Then they started cleaning up the leftovers, as they needed to return the plates to Su Ting the next day.

After emptying the leftovers, she took the plate outside to wash it.

In this day and age, washing dishes is no easy task.

Although the food was light and not very oily, it didn't mean it was completely devoid of oil.

After all, there was no dishwashing liquid available at that time, even though Germany had invented such a product as early as 1925.

However, the price is high, and not every family can afford it.

Therefore, Su Ting disliked washing dishes very much, and had to carefully add dish soap every time he washed them.

They quickly washed themselves by the tap and rinsed them clean, afraid of being discovered by the people in the yard.

Without dish soap, the greasy feeling on your hands can be extremely uncomfortable.

Of course, alkali can be used as a substitute, but Su Ting had never used it in his previous life.

I heard online that it was toxic, so I simply gave up on it.

Qin Huairu repeatedly scrubbed the plate with hot water until it was completely clean.

The next morning, Su Ting woke up and checked the system's records from the previous night.

He discovered that Qin Huairu's one-hour gaming session had earned him 3600 emotional points.

That's quite a lot! One point per second on average, that's fantastic.

Su Ting stretched and announced loudly, "Another energetic day!"

These words infuriated Qin Huairu, who had come to deliver the plates, and she responded in kind.

"What an energetic day! It's a debilitating one! I've already put the plates on the windowsill."

"Emotional value from Qin Huairu +6," he said, then stormed off in a huff.

Qin Huairu had been holding back her anger all night, feeling that she had truly lost both her wife and her army.

Although the game was quite fun, she became increasingly frustrated the more she thought about it.

Even the usually obsequious Sha Zhu came out to greet her, but she ignored him.

Su Ting didn't pay much attention to Qin Huairu's attitude.

He's already addicted to playing cards with Qin Huairu, and it's estimated that in a few days, Qin Huairu will take the initiative to come and play with him again.
