Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

The money she got from Li Weidong these days was almost equal to her monthly salary. If she continued to entangle with Sha Zhu as before, Li Weidong might be dissatisfied with her. In this regard, Qin Huairu still knew the importance of the matter. Seeing that Qin Huairu did not insist on more money, He Yuzhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

When leaving the hospital, He Yuzhu met Yi Zhonghai. The last time Yi Zhonghai took Xiaodang and Huaihua to find Li Weidong, both of them felt a little uncomfortable. This time they just had a quick glance and pretended not to see each other. When they returned to the courtyard, He Yuzhu felt a little relieved when he saw that the light in He Yushui's room was not on.

Just as he was about to enter, he noticed a person squatting outside the Jia family's door. Could it be Jia Zhang who has returned? Because the light was too dim, he couldn't see who it was. After thinking about it, He Yuzhu walked over there. When he got closer, he found that it was not Jia Zhang, but a young and beautiful girl who looked to be about ten years old. She was wearing a flowered cotton jacket, which was very common in rural areas. People in the city either wore work clothes or military uniforms. He Yuzhu asked, "Hey, who are you?" The round-faced girl raised her head, but quickly lowered it again, obviously not wanting to pay attention to him. He Yuzhu was a little angry and asked again: "Let me ask you, who are you looking for?" The girl answered vaguely: "Looking for Qin Huairu."

"Oh, so you are looking for Sister Qin. She is not at home. Who are you to her?" "I am her cousin." He Yuzhu's eyes lit up when he heard that. Qin Huairu's cousin? So the person Qin Huairu wants to introduce to him is her? Although Qin Jingru is not as beautiful as Qin Huairu, she is young and still a virgin. He Yuzhu suppressed his inner excitement, tried to put on a kind smile, and introduced himself: "Hello, I am your cousin and neighbor He Yuzhu. Your sister has something going on at home, she is not here now. Do you want to come to my house first and sit down, I will tell you the details of the situation?" Qin Jingru became alert when she heard what He Yuzhu said, and looked at him curiously.

Qin Huairu once mentioned to her that she wanted to introduce a man to her, and specifically mentioned her neighbor He Yuzhu. Hearing that the man was a chef and had a high salary of 37 yuan per month, Qin Jingru could not wait to come. However, when she arrived at Jia's house, she found that the door was closed. The neighbors only knew that Qin Huairu and her family went to the hospital, but did not reveal the specific reason.

Qin Jingru had no choice but to wait at the door. After waiting for a long time, she was so hungry, but she didn't dare to leave for fear of missing Qin Huairu. She saw that He Yuzhu was a chef and guessed that he must have delicious food at home. So she asked cautiously: "Do you have any food at home?" He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "There are still some steamed buns. If you don't mind, I can heat them up for you."

"Of course I don't mind it, I don't mind it at all!" Qin Jingru nodded quickly. For her, having something to eat is already very good, so she is naturally not picky. Besides, in the countryside, steamed corn bread is not a common food. A few minutes later, He Yuzhu looked at Qin Jingru who was eating voraciously, and he became more and more satisfied. The women in the Qin family are all plump. Qin Jingru not only inherited the characteristics of Qin Huairu's roundness, but also made it easier for her to give birth. He Yuzhu thought that even if he gave birth to three or four more children, he would not have to worry about food problems.

Qin Jingru noticed He Yuzhu's eyes, but didn't think much about it. She was simple-minded and just wanted to find a man with good conditions who wouldn't let her go hungry, and He Yuzhu just met her conditions. If He Yuzhu treated her well, it would be fine to marry him. Qin Jingru finished eating three steamed buns, wiped her mouth, and then remembered to ask about Qin Huairu's whereabouts. He Yuzhu patted his head and began to tell the story of Banggeng cutting the cow until Jia Zhang took the money and ran away.

Hearing this, Qin Jingru was stunned. She thought Qin Huairu lived well in the city, but she didn't expect such a big thing to happen. The fact that Banggeng cut off her life made Qin Jingru very confused. Of course, she knew about the love between men and women, and that object was very important to men. In this way, the incense of the Jia family might be cut off, which was exactly the reason why Jia Zhang ran away.

"Miss Jingru, Miss Jingru!" He Yuzhu called several times, and Qin Jingru finally came back to her senses. She looked at He Yuzhu with a confused face and asked, "What's the matter?"

He Yuzhu suggested with a smile: "Your sister may not know that you are here. Why don't you leave your luggage with me first and I will take you to the hospital to see her?" It was the coldest time of the year, and Qin Jingru naturally didn't want to suffer from the cold outside, so she agreed to He Yuzhu's suggestion.

He Yuzhu was secretly delighted when he heard this, imagining himself riding a bicycle with Qin Jingru on the street. "Then wait here for a while, I'll borrow a bicycle from my neighbor."

"Don't you have one yourself?" Qin Jingru asked doubtfully. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "I used to have one, but my sister works far away, so I gave the car to her. She lives next door to me now."

Qin Jingru's eyes lit up when she heard this. Living next door? Doesn't that mean He Yuzhu has two rooms? As for He Yuzhu giving the car to his sister He Yushui, it's not a big deal. After all, as a girl, she will get married sooner or later, and these things will naturally belong to He Yuzhu at that time.

Whether it is Qin Huairu or Qin Jingru, they are quite shrewd in calculating benefits. "Okay, then I'll go with you. I'm a little scared to be alone in the room."

"It's not far, just in the backyard. Let's go." The two said and went out together.

The first person He Yuzhu thought of to borrow the car from was Li Weidong. They had a good relationship, and he believed that Li Weidong would not refuse. When he arrived at the backyard, He Yuzhu shouted Li Weidong's name before he even approached.

"Weidong, is Weidong home?" Li Weidong was assembling crystal radios in his room. He had already sent out a batch, and Cai Xiaoguang asked for another 100 after receiving them. If everything went well, Li Weidong would make a fortune.

Hearing the shout outside the door, Li Weidong stopped what he was doing, covered the parts on the table with a cloth, and walked out. As soon as he went out, he saw the smiling He Yuzhu and the strange girl next to him.

"Why are you shouting so urgently?" He Yuzhu first glanced at Qin Jingru, then whispered in Li Weidong's ear, explaining Qin Jingru's identity and purpose.

After listening to this, Li Weidong's eyes flashed with surprise. This wooden-headed man finally got the idea? As a friend who grew up together, Li Weidong naturally had no reason to refuse to borrow a bicycle. He went back to the house to get the key and handed it directly to He Yuzhu. "Come back later and lock the bike. I'll leave the key with you first. I'll ask for it tomorrow morning. Don't wake me up."

"Okay!" He Yuzhu agreed happily. Turning back, he found Qin Jingru staring blankly at Li Weidong's departing back, so he waved his hand and said, "I've borrowed the car, let's go."

Qin Jingru came back to her senses and quickly responded, "Yeah." When she left, she looked back several times. Although she wanted to ask He Yuzhu who the man was just now, she didn't say anything. In her heart, based on appearance alone, He Yuzhu was obviously not as good as the man just now.

He Yuzhu grew up too fast, and looked more than 40 years old before he was 30. Li Weidong was tall and handsome, and he almost satisfied all the preferences of women in men. On the way to the hospital by bicycle, Qin Jingru casually asked He Yuzhu: "Who was that man just now? How come he gave it to me without saying a word when I asked to borrow the bike?"

In this era, Forever and Phoenix brand bicycles are like Mercedes-Benz and BMW in later generations. Not everyone can easily borrow one. What if it is lost? He Yuzhu didn't think much and simply answered: "That's my childhood friend Li Weidong. He works with me in the steel plant. He is the team leader. Although he has little driving experience, his driving skills are first-class. The factory director often praises him in meetings."

"Driver?" Qin Jingru's eyes, which had been shining, became even brighter when she heard that Li Weidong was a driver. She felt that the profession of driver was even more popular than that of chef in some aspects. If she could choose, she would definitely choose driver instead of chef.

He Yuzhu didn't know what Qin Jingru was thinking, and was still happily introducing Li Weidong to her. But he ignored the conflict between Li Weidong and Qin Huairu. Qin Jingru listened to He Yuzhu's story and had a better impression of Li Weidong. She thought: If I marry him, it will definitely be better than marrying He Yuzhu.

Yu Li had just finished her shower and was drying her hair when she came out of the bathroom. She asked Li Weidong who had come because she heard someone talking. Li Weidong had just sat down and was about to continue assembling the machine when he heard his wife's voice. He walked over to take the towel and gently combed her hair. He told Yu Li that it was He Yuzhu who came to borrow his bicycle. He Yuzhu was going to find his wife Qin Huairu. Yu Li said thoughtfully that Qin Huairu's cousin was pretty good.

Li Weidong looked at his wife in surprise and asked why she said that. Yu Li rolled her eyes and said that if the other party was like Jia Zhang, they would not care. Li Weidong trembled after hearing this, imagining how beautiful the scene would be if it was Jia Zhang at the door of the Jia family.

Yu Li just mentioned it casually and had no intention of discussing it in depth.

He Yuzhu sent Qin Huairu's cousin to the hospital to visit Qin Huairu's husband because his wife was out of town. He Yuzhu is older than Li Weidong and should have started a family long ago. He has a good impression of Qin Huairu, so it is understandable why he went to send Qin Huairu's cousin alone.

Qin Huairu didn't have a good relationship with her cousin, but because she was worried about her husband's condition, she didn't have much time to communicate with her. When Qin Huairu heard that Li Weidong agreed to help Haitang assemble a crystal radio, she was a little surprised, but she didn't discuss it in depth.

After chatting, the couple returned to the inner room. Then, Li Weidong continued to teach Yu Li soprano skills, and the work of assembling the crystal radio was left for the next day.

At the same time, in the hospital, He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu were in an awkward situation. He Yuzhu thought Qin Huairu would be happy to see her cousin, but the ending was unexpected. Qin Huairu frowned as soon as she saw her cousin and asked He Yuzhu to send her back to the countryside immediately, which confused He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu's cousin.
