Siheyuan: Sizhu starts blindly and takes a new path

The old man rubbed his head when he heard what Old Ma said. Mrs. Jia pouted and said to Qin Huairu, "He beat his wife even more severely back then. It was because Ma Shan's mother was often beaten by him that her health became worse and worse, and she died at a young age."

Old Ma scolded, "Ms. Jia Zhang, stop talking nonsense. My wife died of illness. I have never beaten my wife. But I remember that Old Jia often beat you because you were lazy."

"You are lazy, your whole family is lazy. Look at you and your two sons' clothes, they are so dirty, you don't even know how to wash them."

"I'm not being lazy, I'm saving money, saving water and soap. Look at the shoe sole in your hand, the pattern on it. I remember you took this when you visited Old Xiang's house a few years ago."

The old man didn't want to get involved in the two of them, so he called Qin Jingru and went to the backyard.

Seeing Qin Jingru leaving with an old man, Yu Li supported the dizzy Sha Zhu and went home to help him go to bed.

Seeing that everyone had left, Jia Pozi thought that if she continued to quarrel with Lao Ma, he might get angry and beat her up. It would not be worth it. Her family was living a good life now, and she did not need to trade her body for money, mainly because it would hurt too much. She also pulled Qin Huairu, who was staring at the backyard, back to the house.

Old Ma looked at the empty yard and said to himself, "Since Shazhu went blind, the middle yard has become increasingly deserted. Families don't visit each other, and families don't quarrel. There are no plays to watch. It's too boring. I'd better go to the backyard to watch Xu Damao's play."

When Lao Ma arrived at Xu Damao's house, an old man was accusing Xu Damao of hitting people, especially his own wife.

"She scolded my mom for being old and worrying about nothing, and I shouldn't have hit her!"

"I didn't curse you, you're talking nonsense. You even called me a chicken that doesn't lay eggs." Qin Jingru jumped and shouted. She seemed to be a bit of a show-off.

The old man couldn't tell who was telling the truth and who was lying, so he said, "Xu Damao, regardless of the cause of this incident, as a man you shouldn't hit a woman. Apologize to Qin Jingru now and promise not to hit her again in the future."

Xu Damao's eyes were as big as copper bells. "Uncle, you are really funny. There is no effect without cause in this world. You even ignore the cause of this matter. If there is no cause, I can beat her. If I don't beat her, she can find you. I think you should stay where it's cool."

The old man was staring at Xu Damao. He thought for a long time but couldn't find a reason to suppress Xu Damao. He felt ashamed. Seeing Lao Ma watching the show outside, he thought of Sha Zhu. I can't control you, Xu Damao, but there are people who can. He pointed at Xu Damao and said, "Okay, if I can't control you, there are people who can. Qin Jingru met Zhuzi and Yu Li in the Intermediate Courtyard just now. Yu Li heard that you beat your wife and said that she would take you to the Street Women's Federation tomorrow to criticize you. I finally persuaded you to stop. I thought you could recognize your mistakes and apologize to Qin Jingru. After all, the couple fought at the head of the bed and made up at the foot of the bed. You are shameless, so I won't keep it for you. I told Zhuzi and Yu Li to send you to the street tomorrow."

When Xu Damao heard that Sha Zhu and Yu Li were going to send him to the street to be criticized, his arrogance immediately waned a lot, and he quickly said to the uncle: "Uncle, I was wrong. We were just talking about something. You are right. No matter what the reason is, I, as a man, should not hit a woman. I was wrong." As he said this, he bowed to Qin Jingru and said: "Jingru, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn't hit you." Then he turned to the uncle and asked: "Do you think this attitude is okay?"

Qin Jingru glanced at the old man, and suddenly praised him in her heart: Ginger is really experienced.

The uncle nodded proudly and said, "That's right. How big of a grudge can a husband and wife have? It's just a quarrel. Don't use force. Be careful next time." After that, he looked at Qin Jingru and said, "Da Mao has already apologized. Don't cry and make a fuss. Okay, I'm going back."

After the uncle left, Xu Damao looked at Qin Jingru, who was a little proud, and said, "Okay, now you know how to find someone to complain to. You use the uncle and Sha Zhu to suppress me." Then he raised his hand again.

"What? You still want to hit me? Just try and see if I can find Yu Li and Sha Zhu to deal with you." Qin Jingru puffed out her chest and stared at Xu Damao with a fearless look.

Xu Damao sneered and gave a thumbs up, "You are awesome, you are amazing."

Why did Xu Damao scold Qin Jingru tonight? It turned out that when Xu Damao passed by Uncle San's house after get off work, he heard Yan Jiecheng and Aunt San happily shouting: "My wife is pregnant, I'm going to be a father!" "The Yan family has an heir." He was envious: Yan Jiecheng had a child less than a year after marriage, and he and Qin Jingru had been married for almost two years, but she couldn't get pregnant.

In the evening, Yan Jiecheng touched Liu Yuhua's belly and hummed a little tune, thinking that it would be perfect if he could get another room.

Liu Yuhua ate a lot tonight and she touched her belly. It feels so good to be pregnant!

After listening to the report from the third aunt, the third uncle thought about today's dinner and became a little worried. If it continues to be like this in the future, the money paid by the old family will not be enough, and he has to think of a way to make them pay more.

Yan Jiefang got out of bed, touching his belly, walked to the table in the moonlight, picked up the teacup, and poured water into his stomach.

His movement attracted Yan Jiekuang, who grabbed the teacup and drank up the remaining water. He rubbed his shriveled stomach and said, "Brother, this won't work. We could eat about 50% to 60% full at dinner before, and drinking some water can last us until dawn and breakfast. My eldest sister-in-law is pregnant, and my mother said she needs nutrition and needs to eat more. She eats more than the three of us, including my younger sister."

Yan Jiedi, who had come to the table at some point, nodded desperately. Yan Jiefang spread his hands and said, "What should we do? Can we not let sister-in-law eat? Mom has already prepared an extra dish."

"A plate of food in our house is not even half as much as others." Yan Jiedi said in a low voice.

"It's good enough that you can add one plate, but you want to fill it up. Have you paid? How dare you make such a request?" Yan Jiefang teased Yan Jiedi.

"Brother, we have to find a way to solve this problem instead of just saying these useless words."

Yan Jiefang said: "How can we solve this problem? Let the elders pay more money? Do you think the elders who have inherited our father's teachings can be willing to pay? Dream on!"

"I can find my sister-in-law and tell her that she earns a lot and will definitely agree to pay more." Yan Jiedi gave the solution confidently.

Yan Jiefang shook his head and said, "I'm not so optimistic about your idea. Liu Yuhua, who just married into our family, might not pay the money according to your idea after being trained by the eldest brother for nearly a year."

The third uncle in the bedroom next door nodded silently in his heart to express his agreement: Jiefang is right, Liu Yuhua is becoming more and more stingy now, she will never pay the household allowance until the last minute, and she also secretly hides food, she thinks I don't know, I just don't want to say it. I ate a lot today, and didn't eat midnight snacks. Hey, why am I thinking about these things, I should think about how to make the eldest brother and his wife pay more household allowance.
