Siheyuan: I am stupid, I don't want to be a bootlicker

"column……"

Qin Huairu wanted to say something, but when she saw He Yuzhu entering the room and closing the door smoothly and in one go, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

In the end, he had no choice but to carry the plate of hairy peanuts back to his room.

"Qin Huairu, you are so shameless, I'm not even dead yet, and you're already rushing to find another employer?

I tell you, as long as I live, don’t even think about it! ”

Aunt Jia lowered the curtains and glared at Qin Huairu fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her.

Qin Huairu sighed helplessly: "Mom, I didn't mean that."

“Bah, I was also a widow, how could I not know what you are thinking?

I tell you, if you can't stay in this house anymore, just get out. The house belongs to my Jia family, and the child also belongs to my Jia family. Go back to your hometown!"

Aunt Jia was furious. Her son Dongxu had only been gone for a year, and this bitch wanted to abandon her and marry Sha Zhu?

She is dreaming!

"Mom, I really didn't mean that. Didn't Shazhu bring a lunch box to our house these past few days, so Banggeng refused to eat?

I was thinking about going to talk to him, who knows..."

Qin Huairu's face was full of grievance. Wasn't she doing this for the sake of her three children?

"Who knows? They won't even let a widow like you in, right?"

Aunt Jia said with disdain: "Useless thing, my grandson is still growing up, if you give him the wrong advice, I will die in front of you."

Qin Huairu's eyes turned red and tears immediately flowed out, wet her floral shirt drop by drop, but the tears didn't fall to the ground.

"Don't try to be so gullible. I'm not one of those old perverts in the yard who's blinded by lard!"

Aunt Jia looked at him coldly and scolded him again, and only then did she feel a lot better after she let out the anger that had been pent up in her stomach.

Qin Huairu lowered her head, wiped her tears, and went to bed.

Early the next morning, He Yuzhu took his sister to "Bai Lao Si Lamb Soup" at the entrance of the alley for a meal.

Bai Laosi is a good cook. He soaked dried white flour buns in the mutton soup. The brother and sister also cut a pound of mutton and ate it with such grease in their mouths.

"Brother, with the way you eat, can we still survive?"

He Yushui was very happy. It was the first time she felt her brother's love since her father He Daqing passed away.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on!"

He Yuzhu raised his hand and hit He Yushui on the back of the head: "Are you still criticizing your brother?"

"Hehe, just because I don't mention the past doesn't mean I've forgotten it."

He Yushui's words made He Yuzhu instantly give in.

Eh!

People, you must not do wrong things in your life.

The two went to the supply and marketing cooperative. Although there were many people queuing, most of them were buying daily necessities, and very few were buying clothes.

He Yuzhu bought two new sets of clothes for his sister, and gave He Yushui 2 yuan:

"You are still growing up, so don't be so stubborn in school."

This morning, He Yuzhu automatically switched to "sister-pampering mode", and all he did was shopping and eating.

He Yushui's mouth didn't stop all morning, he was either eating or laughing.

It was not until this moment that He Yuzhu felt that his sister finally looked like a little child.

At noon, the brother and sister had a meal outside before returning home.

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw the third uncle parked his bicycle and the third aunt helped to take the fishing gear home.

"Wow, Uncle Three has made quite a harvest today!"

He Yuzhu's eyes lit up. There were two big catfish in the third uncle's bucket, one of which looked to weigh two or three pounds.

There are also quite a few palm-sized miscellaneous fish, which look to weigh more than a pound.

"Hehehe, that's right. Today is Sunday and I don't have work, so there are a lot of people fishing. If I were to say what I got, this is it!"

The third uncle gave a thumbs up while speaking.

"Uncle, are you planning to..."

The environment is very good now, the water quality is not polluted, the catfish is very clean and tastes good. He Yuzhu wants to buy some and make a pot of boiled fish for his sister.

"Hey, it's sold everywhere. If you want one, this one weighs three pounds. Just give me 2 yuan."

The third uncle pointed to the three-pound catfish in the bucket. Now that the weather is getting warmer, there are more fish in the river and they can't be sold at a high price.

However, it is fresh after all, so the price per pound is only 80 to 85 cents, and the price given by the uncle is very reasonable.

"That's fine, Third Master is still open-minded."

He Yuzhu smiled and took out 2 yuan and handed it to the third uncle. The third uncle took the money and asked the third aunt to get a vegetable washing basin from home to put the fish in, and personally delivered it to the central courtyard.

In the middle courtyard, Bang Geng was playing with a few children. When he saw He Yuzhu carrying a lot of things, he immediately ran towards him:

"Uncle Silly, what delicious food did you buy today?"

As he said this, he looked eagerly at the big catfish in the third uncle's basin: "This fish is so big, it's enough for our family to eat."

"I bought two sets of clothes for Yu Shui, nothing else."

He Yuzhu responded casually, and Yu Shui and the third uncle had already entered the house to put the fish down.

"Okay then. I'll go back first."

The third uncle smiled and waved to He Yuzhu and went back. He Yuzhu also went into the house and started to clean the catfish.

Banggeng's eyes rolled, and he quickly ran back and climbed into his grandmother's arms:

"Grandma, grandma, Shazhu bought Yushui two new sets of clothes and a big fish. I want new clothes, too, and I want to eat fish."

"Okay, okay, my eldest grandson, you go play first. I'll go find your mother. I'll ask Sha Zhu to bring a bowl of fish to our house later."

Aunt Jia touched Banggeng's head, got off the kang and went to find Qin Huairu.

"Huai Ru, did you hear what Bang Geng said just now?"

"Yeah, Mom, I heard it."

Qin Huairu agreed without even turning her head. She was kneading corn flour in her hands, preparing to steam buns.

"Go find Shazhu later and ask him to bring the fish to us. Banggeng hasn't seen meat for several days.

The child is still growing and cannot bend his mouth.

This idiot Zhu is really something. Why did he buy so many clothes for Yu Shui, who is a money-loser? Didn’t he know that Bang Geng has grown taller and has nothing to wear? "

With a "sizzling" sound, boiling hot oil was poured on the boiled fish, and the fragrance immediately filled the entire yard.

The brother and sister smiled at each other and gathered around the table to start eating.

"Zhu Zi, Yu Shui, are at home."

Outside the door, Qin Huairu's voice sounded at the right time.

The smile on Yu Shui's face froze instantly, and He Yuzhu couldn't help but frown.

"at home."

After a moment's silence, he got up from the kang and opened the door. Qin Huairu was standing at the door with a smile on her face and a bowl in her hand.

"Sister Qin, we are having dinner, why are you here..."

He Yuzhu had a faint smile on his face, but his tone was obviously not as warm as before.

"Hey, isn't it your house? The fragrance has drifted into the yard. Bang Geng said his uncle He bought a big fish today."

Qin Huairu didn't seem to notice the smile gradually disappearing from He Yuzhu's face, and she continued to talk to herself:

"This child is still young and growing. Look at how big the fish is. You and Yu Shui can't finish it. Can you give Bang Geng a bite?"

He Yushui in the room was sitting around the table on the kang, picking up a piece of fish and blowing on it with his cheeks puffed up, while his ears were pricked up to listen to the noise coming from the door.

He Yuzhu just stared at Qin Huairu, his expression gradually becoming gloomier.

"Zhuzi, you..."

Qin Huairu felt uncomfortable all over. She was clearly wearing clothes at the moment, but under He Yuzhu's gaze, she seemed naked.

"Hey, Sister Qin, I thought it was something!"

Suddenly, He Yuzhu's expression changed, and the gloomy look just now disappeared instantly, replaced by a smile on his face:

"It's true that Banggeng is growing up and can't bend his mouth, but shouldn't it be you as a mother who should find a solution? Why are you looking for me?"

"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough."

He Yushui in the room was choked by a mouthful of fish soup and started coughing up tears.

"I, I am not..."

Qin Huairu was just about to say, "I'm looking for you to help me with this," but then an old man came over:

"Zhu Zi, I heard from the Third Uncle that the fish weighs two to three pounds. You and Yu Shui can't finish it, so give a bowl to the Jia family.

It's not easy for Huairu, a woman, to raise three children and take care of a mother-in-law. We are all neighbors, and we should help each other!"

If it were in the past, as long as the eldest master asked, He Yuzhu would definitely bring even the basin to the Jia family.

but……

The He Yuzhu today is no longer the He Yuzhu of the past.

"Uncle said yes, it's really not easy for Sister Qin. We are neighbors, so we should help each other."

He Yuzhu nodded, and Qin Huairu was secretly happy, thinking that she could finally have a good meal tonight.

Yi Zhonghai was also all smiles, Sha Zhu was still the same Sha Zhu:

"That's fine. Give half of the fish to Huairu's family, and let's go back and eat."

Qin Huairu handed the bowl in her hand to He Yuzhu with a smile, secretly regretting that she should have brought a basin when she came out.

"Master."

He Yuzhu stopped Yi Zhonghai who was about to turn back and said with a smile:

"In this hospital, your uncle is the best in terms of prestige and salary.

You earn 99 yuan a month, and your daily expenses are less than 20 yuan. Why don't you take the lead and donate yuan to the Jia family every month, so that Bang Geng won't have to complain.

Everyone knows about Sister Qin's family situation. Neighbors should help each other. What do you think?"

"Zhu Zi, it's not that I don't want to help the Jia family, it's just that they don't have a man to support the family, and widows are often surrounded by gossip..."

The smile on Yi Zhonghai's face disappeared. He had always been the one "kidnapped" by others in his life, but this was the first time he was "kidnapped" by someone else.

"Uncle, you are worrying too much. If it is not convenient for you to come forward, isn't there still an aunt?

Besides, there are two widows in the Jia family. It wouldn’t be appropriate for a grown man like me to go in and out, right?

Okay, you and Sister Qin continue chatting, I'll go in and eat."

Ignoring the dull and dazed faces of the old man and Qin Huairu, He Yuzhu finished speaking, turned around and scurried into the house.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw his sister He Yushui looking at him with a smile and secretly gave him a thumbs up.

However, her cheeks were stuffed with fish meat and her little mouth was oozing with oil, which made her look very cute.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai came into the house. Auntie had already set the table and asked him to eat.

Yi Zhonghai sat down around the kang table, thinking about what He Yuzhu had just said in the yard. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and in the end he couldn't even eat.

After Qin Huairu entered the room, Aunt Jia saw her coming in with an empty bowl and her face immediately darkened:

"Humph, you don't have anything. You can't even get a single fish. What use do we have for you, the Jia family?"

Qin Huairu was thinking about what He Yuzhu had just said, and ignored Aunt Jia. She quickly placed the dishes and chopsticks on the kang table and called the children to eat.

Silly Zhu, what's wrong with you?
