Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

Yi Zhonghai said: "Oh, it's Huairu, are you here to pick up Dongxu? I'll help him back later."

At this moment, although he was already about 70% drunk, there was no problem for him to go home by himself. After all, he was an old man in the courtyard and was more careful. It was impossible for him to drink excessively.

Seeing someone coming to pick them up, everyone said goodbye. Xu Wude supported Xu Damao, and Liu Haizhong supported Liu Guangqi. They were all fathers supporting their sons back home.

Qin Huairu stood quietly inside the door, but her eyes wandered around the dining table. Today's dishes were quite large, and there were still some meat dishes left.

Yi Zhonghai saw it, and didn't realize that he was not the host, so he said, "Huai Ru, it's been such a long time since dinner, you must be hungry, don't be disgusted, sit down and eat more."

"Isn't this bad?"

She said sorry, but her expression betrayed her. Her eyes fell on Qin Zheng, who was seeing someone off outside the door.

Qin Zheng had just helped to escort Xu Damao out of the room when he heard Yi Zhonghai say, "Qin Zheng, there are still dishes on the table. Do you think you can let Huairu have some?"

As the host, Qin Zheng naturally would not offend others on this issue, so he said: "Sister-in-law Huairu, don't be polite or look down on me, just sit down and eat."

Qin Huairu did not refuse and sat next to Jia Dongxu and started eating. It was not her turn to have the delicious food at home. She had not eaten meat for more than three months. The last time she ate meat was at the Qin family's wedding.

Yi Zhonghai said: "Zhu Zi, stop looking, let's go back first."

"Okay, let's go."

After saying that, the two of them went back home.

The third uncle originally wanted to ask his wife to clean up the leftovers, but now it seems that there is no chance. This good thing must belong to Qin Huairu.

In the room, only Jia Dongxu was still sleeping soundly. Qin Huairu felt very embarrassed. She raised her head to look at Qin Zheng, and saw that he looked drunk and was looking at her with a smile. She quickly lowered her head again, as if she was a thief who was discovered, her face was so red that it seemed like blood was about to drip out.

Qin Zheng found it interesting and asked softly, "Sister-in-law Huairu, are you afraid of me?"

Qin Huairu raised her head, looked at him and said, "I'm not scared, I'm just a little embarrassed."

After she finished speaking, her cheeks flushed, and her big watery eyes were shy and timid, but she didn't look away, and the atmosphere became a little subtle.

Qin Zheng found it interesting. This woman actually dared to look him in the eye. She was much bolder than Jia Zhang.

Bah, why am I thinking about Jia Zhang at this moment!

That was a fat winter melon, and the one in front of him was a beautiful young wife.

Is it that her beauty gives her courage and confidence?

This face is indeed beautiful, with fair and firm skin, an oval face, big eyes with double eyelids, a straight nose and a medium-sized mouth. Twenty-two years old is the most charming time for a woman.

Qin Zheng was not drunk. He knew very well that based on Qin Huairu's current performance, if he was interested, she could immediately become his slave.

He did not forget that ever since he flirted with her after drinking last time, the woman had been looking at him with a seductive look in her eyes.

At this moment, Qin Zheng felt like there was a fire burning in his heart. Even though he didn't have such thoughts about her, it was still okay to tease her.

"Sister-in-law Huairu, are you trying to seduce me like this? Aren't you afraid that Jia Dongxu will beat you up?"

Qin Huairu's face was red as if blood was about to drip out, and she whispered: "He is drunk, even thunder can't wake him up."

This sentence has a lot of meaning.

Qin Zheng's mind was confused, so he bit his tongue hard. The pain made him regain his sanity. He gritted his teeth and said, "You do this for no reason. You know, if you are found out, your life will be over."

Perhaps she was thinking of something, the redness on Qin Huairu's face faded a little. After a while, she said, "Actually, I don't know what's wrong. I keep thinking of you and the time you touched me."

Qin Zheng laughed and said, "If you don't touch me, why would I touch you?"

"Ah? You're not drunk?"

Qin Zheng smiled without saying anything, but Qin Huairu really understood what was going on. She blushed with shame, covered her face with her hands, and lay on the table, not saying a word for a long time.

After about two minutes, she raised her head and mustered up the courage to say, "Actually, I am somewhat grateful to you."

"Thank you for me? Why?"

"My mother-in-law treats me badly."

After that, she glanced at Jia Dongxu and said, "Dongxu doesn't care. He keeps telling me that it's not easy for his mother, a widow, to raise him. I don't dare to talk back. But my mother-in-law has been humiliated by you several times and lost face. So..."

Oh, thank goodness I was there for this reason.

Jia Zhang was a rampant person in the courtyard, not to mention in her own home. Jia Dongxu was a mama's boy who allowed his mother to bully his wife. This made Qin Huairu angry. The longer the time went on, the more resentful she became.

Jia Zhang had only suffered setbacks at the hands of Qin Zheng, so whenever she was bullied, she would think of Qin Zheng's punishment of Jia Zhang. Over time, she actually felt grateful to him. At this moment, she dared to have an affair just to thank Qin Zheng and take revenge on the Jia family.

"Haha, that Jia Zhang is indeed not an easy person to get along with. You have been wronged in the Jia family. So this is the reason."

Qin Huairu said: "You are good-looking, strong, and you are very powerful."

This sentence made Qin Zheng feel very satisfied and a little complacent. This woman was actually quite smart.

No matter whether you are male or female, young or old, no one doesn't want to hear compliments.

Qin Huairu's meaning was very clear. According to what happened decades later, Qin Zheng was handsome, strong, and capable, and was her idol!

There is a saying that goes, as long as one has good facial features, one’s worldview will follow those features.

It is true that women admire strong men, and it is also true that women like good-looking and strong men.

Next, Qin Huairu hesitated to speak.

Qin Zheng asked: "Why? Is there any other reason?"

Qin Huairu pursed her lips and said, "I want to eat something good once in a while."

Well, this reason is more realistic. It is just to be able to eat good food often. She is in the Jia family, and she has no chance to eat delicious food. She can only eat cornmeal with vegetable soup.

Don’t think this reason is funny. During the next three difficult years, a rural girl would marry herself off for three kilograms of noodles, even if she wanted to marry a disabled man or an older widower.

After this conversation, the excited emotions of both of them were restrained, and Qin Zheng even calmed down from his excited state.

Of course, the more important reason is that Qin Zheng does not want to touch Qin Huairu, not because of her blood-sucking properties, but simply because she is a married woman.

Jia Dongxu was right next to them. Even if Qin Zheng was a beast, he could not do such a thing as messing with his wife next to him. That would really trample on a man's face.

Qin Zheng, who had calmed down, naturally would not continue to tease Qin Huairu, but said: "Live a good life. If you take the wrong path, it will be difficult to turn back. The price is too high and you can't afford it at all."
