Siheyuan: Xu Damao's New Life

Sha Zhu was exhausted yesterday, or to be more precise, everyone in the cafeteria was exhausted. After all, there were too few people in the cafeteria yesterday, but there were quite a few people in the factory, and the workload was quite heavy.

He used to be very dissatisfied with Nan Yi replacing him to cook in the cafeteria. Taking advantage of the opportunity of them cooking together this time, Sha Zhu secretly tasted the dishes made by Nan Yi, especially the stir-fried dishes he made for the leaders.

Nan Yi's cooking skills are ten times better than mine! Isn't it just that her technique is more delicate and her presentation is more exquisite than mine? I am the representative of the bold and unrestrained school, while Nan Yi is a woman of the graceful and elegant school!

Sha Zhu had just prepared breakfast for the people on duty at night when someone came to inform them that the people on duty last night could go home and rest for a day. Sha Zhu was very happy, packed up his things and returned to the courtyard with the subsidy from the factory.

Qin Jingru was coaxing Xiaodang at home, and she would look outside from time to time, hoping to see He Yuzhu. As expected, Qin Jingru saw He Yuzhu as soon as he entered the middle courtyard.

"Xiaodang, play at home for a while and don't go out. Your aunt is going to talk to your uncle Zhuzi about something." Qin Jingru warned.

Xiaodang, who was almost four years old, could already understand what the adults said. He nodded obediently and said, "Auntie, go. I'm at home."

Qin Jingru put on her raincoat and quickly ran to the yard, "Brother Zhuzi, Brother Zhuzi, I have something to talk to you about!"

Sha Zhu stopped and turned to look over. "It's Jingru, what's wrong? Have you decided to date me?"

"No, no, it's my sister! It's my sister's business!" Qin Jingru said.

"Oh, about Sister Qin. Let's go inside and talk about it. It's raining." Sha Zhu said, pointing to his own house.

Qin Jingru nodded and followed Sha Zhu into his house.

"Sister Jingru, tell me, what happened to my sister Qin?"

"I don't know how my sister fell in the backyard last night. She was sent to the hospital and gave birth to a premature baby. Because of the premature birth, the baby needed foreign medicines and other treatments, and those medicines were very expensive. My sister asked me to come to you and tell you to go to the hospital." Qin Jingru said anxiously.

At this time, He Yushui also heard the noise and walked out of her own hut. The door of Sha Ge's house was not closed, so she stood at the door and listened to the two of them talking.

"Oh, what is Sister Qin like? Is it a boy or a girl? How much money will it cost in total?" Sha Zhu asked anxiously.

"A girl was born. I heard from my sister before that my brother-in-law named her Huaihua before he passed away. The nurse told me to prepare 300 yuan first, as I might need more money later." Qin Jingru was so anxious that she didn't keep her mouth shut. She completely forgot her cousin's instructions and told everyone everything she knew.

After listening to this, Sha Zhu thought about it and realized that he didn't have that much money on him. It seemed that he had to ask his sister for help in this matter.

"I don't have that much money. Wait a minute, I'll go get money from my sister!" Sha Zhu said as he raised his leg and was about to leave when he heard the sound of rain coming from the door.

"Brother, you don't have to look for me anymore, I'm here."

"Yushui, you came at the right time. Can you give me three hundred yuan? Sister Qin gave birth prematurely, and the child needs money for treatment." Sha Zhu said with a flattering look.

"Brother, you only know that Qin Huairu gave birth prematurely, don't you want to know why she suddenly gave birth prematurely?"

"Why?" Sha Zhu became curious when he heard his sister say that. Qin Jingru, who was standing by, also pricked up her ears to listen to the conversation between the brother and sister.

"Then let me tell you about what your sister Qin did last night! You and Brother Nan were not at home last night, and Brother Nan asked Brother Damao to send a message to me, saying that he was worried about leaving his wife alone at home on a rainy day, and asked me to sleep with Sister Qiunan. Then I helped Brother Damao cook and brought some to Sister Qiunan."

"Hey, Yu Shui, stop being so talkative and get to the point." Sha Zhu interrupted Yu Shui impatiently.

Yu Shui rolled her eyes and then recounted everything Qin Huairu said and did yesterday. The more Sha Zhu listened, the darker his face became. Qin Huairu was such a bastard, accusing her own sister of having an affair with Xu Damao, even though her sister was an unmarried virgin and would be a college student in the future.

In this era, reputation is more important than anything else. If you lose your reputation, you are basically socially dead. How can my sister live her life if this gets out? You dare to come to me to borrow money? Bah, I don’t have a penny!

"I have the money but I won't lend it to you. I also don't want to go to the hospital to see her. Just tell Qin Huairu that from now on I will cut off all ties with her and will never have any contact with her again!" Sha Zhu said angrily.

Qin Jingru, who was standing by, felt her face burning. She was angry and ashamed. Oh, you framed someone's sister last night, and today you can find someone to borrow money. You, Qin Huairu, have no shame at all, but I, Qin Jingru, still have some!

She didn't know what her cousin did last night. If she knew, she would definitely not come to see Sha Zhu. At the same time, she also made up her mind that she would return to her hometown after her cousin was discharged from the hospital. She, Qin Jingru, was ashamed to be with her cousin!

"Well, Brother Zhuzi, I'll go back first."

"Well, sister Jingru, this is none of your business. I'm not angry with you. Don't take it seriously!" Sha Zhu comforted her.

"I know, Brother Zhuzi. I'll go back to see the kids first." Qin Jingru didn't even wear a raincoat. She just took it and ran back to the Jia family.

"Brother, congratulations on seeing Qin Huairu's true face and getting rid of this vampire. In the future, do more good deeds to improve your reputation, and don't think about the widow anymore. When the time comes, find me a sister-in-law and live a good life." He Yushui heard the direction of the plot from Xu Damao, so she wanted to take revenge on Qin Huairu, but also be nicer to her brother and strive to change the future.

"Hey, your brother and her were just playing around, it was something that both of us agreed to, who knew she would become like this now. Besides, I'm tired of playing around now, it's time for him to find a grown-up girl to marry."

Sha Zhu said this, but in his mind, Liang Ladi's figure emerged. Well, Sha Zhu did inherit his ancestor's gene of liking widows, but it was not nice to say it out loud, so he never admitted it.

"Okay, brother, you should take a rest first. I'll go back first. I'll cook lunch at noon, you just wait and eat."

Sha Zhu smiled, it was great to have his sister care about him, he wanted to protect this beauty. Unconsciously, Sha Zhu awakened his sister complex.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you at noon. I'll go to sleep first." He really didn't sleep well last night. A large group of people slept on tables put together, and he had to get up from time to time to inspect the situation everywhere. It would be a miracle if he could get a good rest.

At noon, Qin Jingru had already prepared the meal, and after feeding Xiaodang, she also ate some. Then she remembered what her cousin said, and carried Xiaodang to knock on Yi Zhonghai's door.

"Aunt Yi, I'm Qin Jingru. Could you please open the door for me? I have something to talk to you about."

The door opened with a creaky sound. The old man was not at home. Wang Sufen was very low-key in the yard and basically never left the house except for necessary outings to buy groceries.

"It's Jingru. What's the matter?" Wang Sufen knew what was going on as soon as she saw Qin Jingru holding Xiaodang.

Although Wang Sufen seldom goes out, she can't help but have Yang Ruihua come to visit. After such a big incident last night, Yang Ruihua couldn't help but want to find someone to talk to. Isn't Wang Sufen, who is alone at home and seldom goes out, the best listener?

"Aunt Yi, my sister asked you to help look after the child. I'm going to give her some things and will be back soon."

Wang Sufen said lightly: "Okay, let the child in." Wang Sufen didn't like the Jia family very much. If her husband hadn't insisted on letting Jia Dongxu take care of her in her old age, she would have been too lazy to care about the Jia family, especially the lazy Jia Zhang.

Qin Jingru thanked Aunt Yi for her agreement and then returned to Jia's house. After returning, she packed some cornmeal porridge in her lunch box, took some daily necessities, and then put on her raincoat and went to the hospital.
