Comfortable life in Siheyuan

After leaving Xu Damao and his partner, Qin Huairu and her son didn't talk much along the way.

Only when they arrived at the place did Qin Huairu signal Banggeng to knock on the door.

"Who is it?" A nice mother-in-law's voice came from the room.

"Mom, it's me!" Banggeng was a little nervous, but he tried to remain calm and responded.

The door opened quickly, and Shu Xiu, the awesome mother-in-law, appeared at the door with a cold face: "Why did you come back? Do you still look like a father?"

Seeing this, Qin Huairu quickly pulled the stick away, then walked up to her mother-in-law with a smile on her face.

"My dear relatives, you are still angry with Bang Geng! Bang Geng has reflected on himself at home during this period of time and knows that he was wrong. He will work hard in the factory in the future and strive to pass the examination and become a regular employee as soon as possible."

Bang Geng's mother-in-law looked at him with contempt and said, "Didn't our Lili give him a chance? But what about him? What did he do? Does he look like a father? It's ok that he doesn't make much money, but now he's stealing things with others. Our family can't afford to lose this person."

Qin Huairu felt very uncomfortable after being told this, but she still had a stiff smile on her face.

"Mother-in-law, I have discussed this matter with Bang Geng. He was ignorant and was fooled by some old hands in the factory. He took it for others and thought it was nothing!"

Qin Huairu tried her best to maintain Banggeng's dignity, but Banggeng was not as tolerant as Qin Huairu.

"I didn't know that I couldn't take the scrap steel. They asked me to take it, so I took it." Bang Geng explained with a red face.

"You are such a grown-up, yet you were fooled by just a few words. You are so stupid. It's more despicable than stealing." When Banggeng's mother-in-law heard what he said, she became even angrier and scolded Banggeng.

"My dear relative, you are right. Don't bother with him. Can we go inside and talk? We will be laughed at by the neighbors if we talk standing at the door!" Qin Huairu's face was almost frozen with laughter, but she still said with a smug look.

Banggeng's mother-in-law couldn't block the door anymore, so she had to make way and let the two of them enter the house.

After entering the house, Qin Huairu immediately frowned and scolded Banggeng, "Banggeng, kneel down in front of your father-in-law and mother-in-law and give them a promise that you will work hard and take good care of Lili in the future. Hurry up!"

Qin Huairu didn't want to go on like this anymore. Her family had been living a very rough life during the few days that Banggeng was at home. If she didn't send her son away, her pension would not be enough to cover the family expenses.

Bang Geng was stunned for a moment, and was a little unresponsive. It was only when Qin Huairu desperately winked at him that he knelt down. But that expression was somewhat unwilling.

"Mom, I was wrong. I will never do that again. I promise that I will work hard and take good care of the family, Lili and the children." Banggeng lowered his head and said unwillingly.

"It's useless to ask me about this. In the end, Lili has to nod her head. I'll go and call Lili out." After saying this, the mother-in-law went into the inner room.

After a while, Lili came out from the inner room with a child in her arms.

"Lili, I really know I was wrong. I will work hard and take good care of you and the children in the future." When Banggeng saw his wife coming out, he no longer cared about his face.

"Bang Geng, we have been married for such a long time and have children, but you have disappointed me time and time again. This time your mother came and you promised, so I will trust you again.

But if you are still so useless next time and hang out with those bad people, then our fate will be over. When the time comes, not only will the child have to be with me, but even the last name will have to be changed, and I don’t care if you agree or not.”

Wang Li's words were obviously thought out in advance, and perhaps she had been instructed by her father-in-law and mother-in-law. However, Banggeng had no choice but to agree at this time. If he didn't agree, then the family would have to break up.

"Wife, I will really change. I will do this job well and become a senior fitter in the future, so that you and your son can enjoy a good life."

"..."

Qin Huairu saw that the matter was settled, so she said goodbye to her in-laws and left. She didn't want to stay in this place for a minute longer. If it wasn't for sending Banggen away, she wouldn't have come.

Huaihua waited at home for a long time before she saw Qin Huairu walking towards her from the front yard.

"Go back and clean up your room! Move back later!" Qin Huairu finally had a smile on her face.

"Mom, where have you been? Where's my brother? Has he come home?" There was a hint of happiness in Huaihua's tone.

"I just came back from his house. Your brother apologized to Lili and his mother-in-law and made a promise. There's no need for him to come here now."

"Then hurry up and eat. I've saved some dinner for you!"

After finishing her meal, Qin Huairu did not go to bed to rest directly. Instead, she sat in the living room, thinking about her own things.

Only when there was movement in the Central Courtyard again did Qin Huairu stand up and walk out!

In the middle courtyard, Sha Zhu and his wife had just returned from the restaurant and were talking and laughing as they prepared to enter the house.

Qin Huairu stood at the door of her house and called the two of them gently.

"Zhu Zi, Xiu Yun."

Sha Zhu and the other man turned their heads in confusion, "Qin Huairu, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

Tian Xiuyun asked with a slight smile.

"I was waiting for you. I should have thanked you yesterday, but Banggeng didn't come back for a long time after the accident. I was so anxious that I messed up. Today I finally sent Banggeng back, so I waited for you to come back. Thank you for saving Banggeng yesterday. Thank you very much!"

Qin Huairu said this and bowed to the two of them.

"Don't be so polite. We are from the same courtyard. We can't just ignore each other when we see each other! Alas~" Tian Xiuyun frowned and sighed.

"I watched Banggeng grow up, too. We can't just watch him get beaten!" Shazhu hesitated to speak. He had originally wanted to persuade Qin Huairu to talk to Banggeng, but then he thought, it seemed like he had said this many years ago, and there was no point in saying it now.

"I still have to thank you. His grandmother and I are both responsible for Banggeng's current situation. These days I have been thinking about what I have done all these years. Do I really have to count on him when I am old?" Qin Huairu's expression was a little sad, and the two people were a little surprised by what she said.

"Don't you still have Xiaodang and Huaihua? Besides, when you are really old, you will have a pension. Why think so much! Just live your life well first!" Tian Xiuyun couldn't stand Qin Huairu's behavior of crying at every turn, and spoke a little harshly.

"That's right. I have a house and a pension. Your life is not that hard. Don't overthink it."

After saying this, Sha Zhu and his wife went back.

Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment before turning around and going into the house.

Sha Zhu sat in the living room, silent for a while. After a long while, he looked at Tian Xiuyun and asked, "Wife, what does Qin Huairu mean?"

"It's meaningless. I worked so hard to grow these saplings, only to find that they have grown crooked and can no longer provide shade." Tian Xiuyun rolled her eyes and said unhappily.
