Siheyuan: A journey of mountains and rivers

"Yes, He Yuzhu, I have returned the house to Zhang Yuan. You can't deny it. You promised an old man last time! If you hold on to your promise now, where will the deaf old lady live?"

Looking at the second uncle's righteous look, He Yuzhu suddenly heard the second uncle's voice again.

"I must help Yi Zhonghai get the house back this time. After all, he promised me that if I get He Yuzhu's house, he would find a way to get Old Lady Jia's house back!"

It turned out that this was the second uncle's idea, and He Yuzhu finally understood.

When several people spoke for Jia Zhang at that time, they were so righteous.

Only now did He Yuzhu realize that this was what they had been planning.

Fortunately, Jia Zhang still thought that the eldest master was a good person. In fact, these beasts were more sinister than each other.

At this time, He Yuzhu suddenly found that Xu Damao was missing, and he was a little surprised for a moment.

"Second uncle, I didn't sign any agreement at that time. When I said I could give you the house, I meant I could rent it to First uncle. As long as First uncle is willing to pay the rent, there will be no problem for his old lady to move in tonight."

When the first and second uncles heard what He Yuzhu said, the expressions on their faces could hardly be suppressed.

But the old man continued to manage his facial expression and spoke to He Yuzhu with a smile on his face.

"He Yuzhu, it's not that I don't want to pay the rent, but my family is really struggling right now. We really have no money, He Yuzhu. I can't give you anything even if I want to!"

He Yuzhu didn't respond. This kind of sad drama was useless to him.

Not to mention, He Yuzhu can now hear the old man's voice.

For such hypocritical people, all He Yuzhu can do is to be thicker-skinned than them.

At this time, Xu Damao, who had just disappeared, came over with Jia Zhang.

The voice had already been heard before Jia Zhang's people came over.

"Hey, boy from the He family, Xu Damao just told me that you suddenly asked for rent again for the house you promised to give me last time. What's going on?"

Seeing Jia Zhang's nervous expression.

He Yuzhu knew that Xu Damao must have exaggerated something.

When the uncle and others saw Jia Zhang coming, they all looked as if they were watching a joke.

"Haha, Aunt Jia, it seems Xu Damao has already told you. I have no choice. Last time you left without understanding what I said. I will explain it again this time."

The old man gave He Yuzhu a disdainful look.

He Yuzhu rolled his eyes at the old man.

He saw the old man's expression change, and then he began to speak slowly.

"Everyone, listen carefully. If someone needs my house for emergency, that's fine, but they have to pay rent. After all, my family's money is not blown by the wind. Besides, I won't ask for too much rent. You should at least consider my family's financial situation, right?"

He Yuzhu also learned the old man's way of gaining sympathy.

Hearing this, the first and second uncles almost rolled their eyes to the sky.

"Hey, He's kid, if you say that, how can our Jia family afford to give you money? We don't even have a man in our family right now, so how can we afford to pay you rent?"

Jia Zhang was sitting on the ground with a crying look on her face.

"That can't be helped, Uncle Jia and Aunt Jia, my mother and I still have to make a living. I just became an eighth-level engineer, and I really don't have any money!"

Seeing that He Yuzhu couldn't make himself understood no matter what he said, the old man simply gave up pretending.

"He Yuzhu, why didn't I realize before that you are such a hypocritical person? You said we have begged you so humbly, what else do you want from us!"

He Yuzhu didn't say anything. At this time, Qin Huairu also came back.

"Mom, Uncle One, Uncle Two, what are you doing?"

Qin Huairu was obviously shocked when she saw her mother-in-law sitting on the ground and crying.

Jia Zhang told Qin Huairu the whole story word for word.

Hearing what Jia Zhang said, Qin Huairu immediately pulled her up.

Then he turned around and said to He Yuzhu.

"I'm sorry, He Yuzhu, I didn't expect my mother-in-law to do this. My mother-in-law was abrupt, but our house is really too small and our children have grown up. We have a hard time! That's why my mother-in-law did this!"

Hearing Qin Huairu's words, He Yuzhu rolled his eyes.

"That's not right, Qin Huairu. Since you have so many children, your mother-in-law is doing this for the good of your family. Why don't you go and borrow from Xu Damao? I see that you and Xu Damao have a good relationship on weekdays!"

When Qin Huairu heard He Yuzhu say this, her eyes were a little evasive.

After all, she also knew that the unclear relationship between her and Xu Damao could not be hidden from He Yuzhu.

"He Yuzhu, stop joking. How can Xu Damao and I have a good relationship? I hate Xu Damao so much! Forget it, my family doesn't want the house anymore!"

Although Qin Huairu wanted to take advantage of the situation, she didn't dare to really anger He Yuzhu.

When the old man saw what had happened, he immediately couldn't sit still.

If Qin Huairu didn't make a fuss, based on He Yuzhu's attitude today, it would probably be difficult for them to get the room back.

He Yuzhu also knew what the uncle was thinking. This person liked to use others as a gun.

If it weren't for the eldest uncle's instigation this time, Jia Zhang might not have come up with this idea.

"Uncle, Qin Huairu has already said that she doesn't need it, so you still have to respect her opinion!"

Qin Huairu also nodded reluctantly.

"Yes, uncle, our family really doesn't need it, and He Yuzhu and Aunt Zhang have finally settled down. We are starting to think about his house. If outsiders knew about this, I don't know how they would laugh at our courtyard house!"

Before Qin Huairu could finish her words, Xu Damao couldn't hold it anymore.

"Qin Huairu, you are such a short-sighted woman. The old man is helping you, why are you still being so sarcastic?"

Seeing Xu Damao's impatient look, He Yuzhu said.

"Oh, by the way, Xu Damao, now that you and Lou Xiao'e are divorced, that means there's one less person in your family. You live alone now, and you have four rooms in your house. How about giving them to Uncle Yi and Aunt Jia as an emergency?"

When Xu Damao heard He Yuzhu say this, he immediately began to hesitate.

When Qin Huairu heard this, she immediately whispered in Jia Zhang's ear.

Jia Zhang's eyes also lit up, and she suddenly stood up and said to Xu Damao.

"What the He family kid said makes sense, Xu Damao. You have so many houses, and now there's no one living there except you. Why don't you lend them to my family for a few years? When Banggeng grows up, we will definitely return them to you!"

An old man also stood there in a daze.
