Comfortable life in Siheyuan

When the Jia family members from the Central Courtyard returned home, Jia Zhang wanted to say something more but was interrupted by Qin Huairu.

"Mom, our family is no longer popular in this courtyard. Everyone avoids us. You must not act as you please in the future." Qin Huairu persuaded softly.

Jia Zhang's face became more and more gloomy, and her eyes revealed a trace of sadness and memories. The Jia family used to be one of the most famous families in this courtyard.

As the first person in his generation to work and get married, Jia Dongxu was well off. In addition, his family also received his father's pension, so he was a well-off family. At that time, even Yi Zhonghai, an old man with no money left, wanted to take Jia Dongxu as his apprentice! However, things are unpredictable and fate plays tricks on people.

Now that Jia Dongxu has passed away, the Jia family is no longer prosperous. Those who were once close to them are now indifferent and shunned. Thinking of this, Jia Zhang couldn't help but feel sad.

"Huai Ru, mom knows. I will listen to you from now on." Jia Zhang said with a smile.

"Mom, please take care of Bang Geng's affairs in the future. If this child continues to act like this, neither of us will have a peaceful life in the future." Qin Huairu said worriedly.

"Okay, I get it, I'll watch him!"

The next day at noon, Qin Huairu went to the third canteen to get food as usual. When she was halfway in line, Xu Damao came over.

"Oh! Sister Qin is getting the meal herself." Xu Damao said in a mean way while standing beside her.

"Get out of the way, I don't have time to deal with you!" Qin Huairu scolded with a smile.

"Oh! Sister Qin, what happened yesterday was my wife's special trip back to get the IOU. I didn't mean to target your family. You can't blame me!" Xu Damao really complained about his grievance.

"De Xing, then why don't you return the money to me? That's all." Qin Huairu said calmly.

At this time, Xu Damao began to squeeze behind Qin Huairu, causing complaints from the people behind.

"My sister Qin is helping me line up. What do you know? We have been in the same hospital for many years."

"Sister Qin, how about I give you the money and you go to the small warehouse with me again?" Xu Damao said as he put his hand on Qin Huairu's shoulder.

"What are you thinking about? Aren't you afraid that your wife won't let you go to bed when she gets home?"

"What are you afraid of? That bitch of mine would never dare to go west if I told her to go east." Xu Damao patted his chest.

Liu Lan, who was getting her meal in front of her, looked at Qin Huairu who was approaching and shouted, "Stop being so annoying. Tell me quickly, what do you want to eat?"

"One serving of cabbage and two steamed buns," Qin Huairu said as she took out the money and tickets.

"Hey! Why don't you let Xu Damao treat us?" Liu Lan teased.

"This person is a dog-skin plaster, so annoying, I don't want to get involved with him." Qin Huairu understood the meaning of Liu Lan's words, but she was not angry. She even smiled and teased Xu Damao.

"Next, come, Eunuch Xu, what would you like to eat?" Liu Lan was harsh in her words and poked Xu Damao in the heart.

"Hey! What's wrong with you? Why are you cursing at me? Who is 'Eunuch Xu'? Believe it or not, I will go and complain to your director!" Xu Damao was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick, and he yelled at the top of his voice.

Liu Lan was not going to tolerate him. She rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "Okay, go ahead. By the time you come back, the food will probably be cold!"

Liu Lan was a straightforward person, and she hated Xu Damao, who liked to tease female employees. Every time she saw him smiling in the cafeteria, she would get angry.

"Hmph, just wait and see! I will definitely not let you go!" Xu Damao glared at Liu Lan fiercely, but he was ultimately unable to resist his rumbling stomach and obediently ordered a portion of potatoes and two steamed buns.

Liu Lan was not afraid of his threats. She thought: I am not a pushover! She picked up the spoon, scooped it into the vegetable bowl, and then slowly lifted it up. Seeing the spoon filled with heavy potatoes, Xu Damao showed a smug smile on his face.

However, at this moment, Liu Lan's hands began to tremble like a convulsion. When the potatoes in the spoon were poured into the bowl, only a few small potatoes were left, lying there alone, as if mocking Xu Damao.

Xu Damao stared at the pitiful amount of potatoes in his bowl with wide eyes and was so angry that he almost jumped up.

"You...you are too bullying...I will go to your director to sue you." Xu Damao's lips were shaking with anger.

"Go quickly, next one." Liu Lan said calmly without even looking at Xu Damao.

"Now that you're done fighting, please get out of the way. Two steamed buns and a portion of potatoes, please." The person behind pushed Xu Damao and walked forward and said.

Liu Lan looked at the people behind her and stopped shaking the spoon.

Xu Damao left the food window angrily. However, when he saw Qin Huairu sitting in the corner, the fire of resentment in his heart was rekindled, so he walked towards that side.

"Damn it! Liu Lan from the cafeteria is a complete bastard. When I get the chance, I'm going to teach her a lesson!" Xu Damao stood in front of Qin Huairu, shouting and threatening, trying to show off his power again.

Qin Huairu didn't take it seriously and responded with a sneer: "Oh, why are you afraid of her? Didn't you just vow to go to the canteen director to complain? Why don't you go?"

After hearing this, Xu Damao was like a deflated ball. He spread his hands helplessly and said, "Even if I report to the canteen director that Liu Lan deliberately shook the spoon and gave me less food, what can I do? Now that everyone in the canteen is huddled together, who will care about me?"

Qin Huairu chewed the food in her mouth slowly and said jokingly: "In that case, why don't you just not eat in the third canteen and go to the second canteen?"

Xu Damao glared at her and retorted, "Hmph, I'm not going! I want to eat the food cooked by Sha Zhu and let that stinky chef serve me well. Hehe!" When he said this, Xu Damao showed a smug smile on his face.

At this moment, Xu Damao did not notice that not far from him, Liu Qingshan and Sha Zhu and his wife were sitting together, eating and silently watching everything that happened here.

"Zhuzi, did you see that? Xu Damao actually wants you to serve him!" Liu Qingshan lowered his voice and spoke carefully to Sha Zhu.

"Hmph, he doesn't even consider whether he can bear it or not. If he really pis ...

"Hey, look, this guy has been pestering Qin Huairu. Could it be that he has some thoughts about the widow?" Tian Xiuyun asked suspiciously.

Hearing these words, Sha Zhu and Liu Qingshan couldn't help but recall the scene of exchanging steamed buns that they had witnessed before, and they were speechless for a moment.

"Sister Qin, I still have the money I paid back yesterday with me. Do you want to go?" Xu Damao didn't finish his words, but the meaning behind them was self-evident.

Qin Huairu finished the last bite of the steamed bun and looked up to find Liu Qingshan and others sitting not far away. Then she smiled and shouted, "Zhu Zi, Xu Damao wants you to serve him."
