Siheyuan: Pushing Huairu, the Prime Minister admits defeat

Perhaps it was because of her natural talent, after Li Weijun demonstrated it only once, Qin Huairu was able to perform it very skillfully, fluently and expertly.

Although it lacks the skill, just looking at the posture, it is much better than randomly swinging fists.

With a veil on her face, she really looks like a thirteen-year-old lady.

Li Weijun's appetite was aroused, and there was no need to mention the whole ordeal.

After falling into a deep sleep, Li Weijun woke up calmly when the rooster crowed the next day. He thought that Qin Huairu would quickly slip back to the central courtyard when the sky was bright, just like she did before.

I touched the pillow and felt a soft jade in my arms.

She was still sleeping soundly, and even the rustling noise of Li Weijun getting dressed and getting up did not wake her up.

"Strange, is Sister Qin sick?"

Looking at the red cheeks, Li Weijun walked forward puzzledly and touched Qin Huairu's forehead, and sure enough, it was burning hot.

Perhaps sensing Li Weijun's little move, Qin Huairu slowly opened her eyes with a frown on her face, and whispered in a hoarse voice: "Weijun, I feel weak and can't stand up. Please help me up. Banggeng has to go to school early."

Seeing that Qin Huairu was struggling and wanted to go back to the central courtyard, Li Weijun bent down to wring out a towel in the bucket, gently stroked Qin Huairu's face, and let Qin Huairu have a good rest.

"Sister Qin, it's already this late, you should take care of yourself. The people in the Jia family treat you like a mule all day long, and they don't even let you rest during the confinement period. Even if you have a body made of iron, you can't stand it."

"But, but it's getting late. I'll go back to my room before it gets light. Otherwise, if I don't see you for a day, my mother-in-law will gossip about us. If she finds out about us, it will ruin your reputation."

Qin Huairu was worried and struggled to get up.

Li Weijun was not in a hurry: "You, save your energy. Jia Dongxu stays out all day and night. Why doesn't your mother-in-law control him? Just rest honestly today. I will go back to the steel mill to open the letter of introduction and find a hotel to rest."

"But if you don't come back for one day..."

"Okay, I know my limits on this matter, Sister Qin, just trust me for once."

Qin Huairu wanted to say something, but Li Weijun had already made plans. After locking the door from the outside, he rode his bike to the restaurant and bought some light breakfast such as soy milk, eggs, preserved eggs and lean meat.

He carried it back to the courtyard and fed it to Qin Huairu spoonful by spoonful.

Although Qin Huairu felt sweet inside and out, as she watched the morning light shine through the window onto the earth, she gradually heard the sounds of her neighbors washing up and opening the door.

She was in a panic, nervous and excited. This was the first time she stayed out all night since she married into the Jia family's courtyard.

More importantly, her husband's family's home was just one courtyard away. Thinking of the wicked mother-in-law who was always throwing tantrums and being extremely arrogant, and thinking about the fact that Banggeng was still hungry, Qin Huairu looked at Li Weijun pleadingly.

"Weijun, please help me. I have a family. My mother-in-law hasn't cooked for ten years. She doesn't know whether it's cold or hot. I'm afraid the child will starve."

Looking at Qin Huairu's worried expression, Li Weijun seemed to be thinking about something. It would be okay for that naughty kid Banggeng to go hungry for a few meals to learn his lesson, but little Huaihua was still young and had no milk powder. If she didn't drink milk, it would indeed be inappropriate.

After thinking for a moment, Li Weijun asked Qin Huairu to stay calm, and he took the opportunity to wash up and slipped into the central courtyard.

At this moment, the door of Jia's house was still closed. It was obvious that the lazy Jia Zhang was still in sleep. Only the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai's family and Sha Zhu were washing up in the middle courtyard.

"Weijun, look at my hairstyle today, my leather shoes, and my clothes. Do they match? I spent a long time dressing myself up, waiting to use them at the social gathering tonight, but unfortunately something is missing..."

Sha Zhu rubbed his hands cunningly, and looked up and down at Li Weijun's wrist with his cunning eyes.

Li Weijun was straightforward, knowing that this guy was ready to burn his boats.

Since he had agreed to lend the watch to Sha Zhu for show, he took off the Shanghai brand large steel watch without thinking.

"Okay, I said that the guards are the most open-minded in the courtyard. This watch is indeed important. It weighs heavily on my wrist. I have nothing else to say to you. From now on, if anyone dares to show his teeth to you, I will be the first to disagree!"

Sha Zhu held his head high and chest puffed out. The more he looked at the watch on his hand, the happier he became. He kept asking Yi Zhonghai to listen to the crisp sound of the watch hands moving, which annoyed Yi Zhonghai, an old man who was brushing his teeth nearby.

"Clothes make the man, saddles make the horse. If it were you, I'd say it would be done tonight. By the way, is Brother Dongxu back?"

Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu looked at each other, thinking that Li Weijun was here to collect debts and ask for money, and they both shook their heads.

"I'm not sure. Jia Dongxu has rarely appeared in the past two days. To be honest, I haven't seen Jia Dongxu in the courtyard for a long time."

"Okay, then I'll go over and see if anyone is in the house."

Li Weijun smiled without saying anything. After asking Sha Zhu not to lose the watch, he walked to the window sill of Jia's house.

As expected, due to the unbearable heat, the windows and doors were wide open, with only a thin layer of screen to prevent mosquitoes from invading. Li Weijun just pulled the screen lightly and pushed it open.

Against the wall, Huaihua was sleeping peacefully with her lips pursed.

Li Weijun gave up concentrating and focused his mind on the locust flower. The next second he put the locust flower into his personal space, and then slowly went to the well to continue brushing his teeth and rinsing his mouth.

All actions are done in one go.

Hidden away and without any flaws, Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai, who had been paying close attention to Li Weijun's behavior, just thought that Li Weijun wanted to see if Jia Dongxu was in the room, and didn't think much about it.

After a brief greeting, Li Weijun returned to the front yard as if nothing had happened. As soon as he entered the house, he handed the still sleeping Huaihua to Qin Huairu.

"Sister Qin, this is done now, right? You can rest in the room for the rest of the time. I'll lock the door. When it's time for dinner, I'll bring the medicine back."

"Remember, when I'm not around, no matter what happens outside, don't say a word. Your mother-in-law should learn her lesson."

When Qin Huairu saw Li Weijun going out and actually brought Huaihua over, she was speechless for a moment.

After a moment of silence, he asked weakly, "That person disappeared, there must be an explanation."

Li Weijun gently tapped Qin Huairu's forehead and said unhappily, "Didn't you say that the evil mother-in-law urged you to go back to your parents' home for help? Tomorrow on the day off, I will ride my bike and take you back to Qinjia Village before dawn. Let's make this a real thing."

Qin Huairu thought about it carefully and felt that this was feasible, but she was still a little worried: "How can I go back to my parents' home without explaining everything? What if my mother-in-law gets suspicious?"

"You just said you were angry and couldn't stand Jia Dongxu not coming home at night, and you were making things difficult for your mother-in-law. Who dares to say anything when a daughter-in-law is angry and goes back to her parents' home?"

"If she reports it to the police, the neighborhood office might even have to teach your mother-in-law a lesson."

Hearing this, Qin Huairu was speechless...

After Li Weijun found his beautiful wife, he went out as if nothing had happened and prepared to report to the steel rolling mill.

Just after pushing the bicycle out and taking a few steps, she heard a hysterical roar coming from the central courtyard. When Jia Zhang got up to empty the spittoon, she discovered that Qin Huairu and Huaihua had mysteriously disappeared.

"Hey, this old lady has a loud voice. It seems that she is too full."

Li Weijun had anticipated Jia Zhang's angry curses. He smiled slightly and rode his bicycle to the steel rolling mill to receive instructions.

But inside the courtyard, Jia Zhang was making a fuss at her doorstep.

At first, she didn't care much about Qin Huairu's absence. She just thought that she had gone out to the street office to ask for help.

As a result, after emptying the spittoon and wasting some time brushing teeth and rinsing mouth, Qin Huairu still didn't come back with the child in her arms.

I touched the stove and found it was cold. Then I thought, there was no one at the street office so early in the morning. How could someone go to the street office to make trouble and ask for help without preparing food in advance?

After thinking it over, she got angry and went to Sha Zhu's house to take a look. When she found that only He Yushui who was drinking porridge was in the room, she was completely shocked.

He clapped his hands fiercely and muttered, "What a bad thing! I slept too soundly last night and didn't keep an eye on her. Could this unlucky girl have gone back to her parents' home in a rage?"

The more Jia Zhang thought about it, the more she felt it was possible. However, her first reaction was not to reflect on whether she had acted inappropriately as a mother-in-law, but to start cursing in anger.

"Bah, you are such an ungrateful person. This daughter-in-law hasn't even become a mother-in-law yet, but she sneaks back to her parents' home after a few words. She really thinks she is a rich lady and can't even sit in the hall. She is so heartless and a loser!"

Coincidentally, Sha Zhu happily came back from outside with soy milk, fried dough sticks, and tea eggs, ready to take advantage of this good day to give He Yushui a snack to improve his diet.

He ran into Jia Zhang, clapping her hands and chanting incantations at the door of her house, and was stunned.

I thought I had offended this unruly guy somewhere, and I felt uneasy, frowning, and my heart was beating fast.

I muttered to myself that today was an auspicious day and I couldn't let this unreasonable old Deng ruin my mood.

"Aunt Zhang, look at you so early in the morning. I don't think I've done anything wrong to you recently, but why are you standing in front of my house and complaining? What you did was not fair, and you need to give an explanation."

"Explanation? What explanation do you need? Don't make yourself uncomfortable here. I'm upset!"

"Look at you, your hair is combed like a feather duster, not too long or too short, and parted in the middle, just like a traitor."

"You are wearing leather shoes and a steel watch. You are a mule covered in dust, but you want to pretend to be a thousand-mile horse. You don't even take a piss to look at yourself. You don't even fill up a bucket of water, and you don't even have a half-full bottle of water. You don't know how much you weigh. Do you deserve this stuff?"

Jia Zhang glared at Sha Zhu fiercely. Her sarcastic tone was sharp and accurate. Her venomous tongue made Sha Zhu dumbfounded and he stood there for a while.

After Jia Zhang had left, he realized what was going on: "Hey, this old lady must have chewed feces, right? If I don't kill her arrogance today, I'm not called Sha Zhu!"

Sha Zhu waved his fist, rolled up his sleeves, put down the soy milk and fried dough sticks, and was about to go to the Jia family to seek justice.

He Yushui, who was drinking porridge at the side, was sober. He shook his head and pulled Sha Zhu: "Brother, if you really go to that old lady, you will fall into a trap. Her family is suffering from famine. If she lies on the ground, will our family survive this month?"

When Sha Zhu heard this, he thought it made perfect sense. Given Jia Zhang's troublesome character, if he was really blackmailed, it would be difficult to end the situation.

After scratching his head, he put his hands over his neck and shrank back, acting like a coward...

After Jia Zhang went from house to house in the courtyard and shouted loudly, she finally confirmed that Qin Huairu had really returned to her parents' home out of spite.

"Grandma, I'm hungry, I'm hungry, am I hungry? Where is my mom? Why hasn't she cooked dinner today? I don't want to be punished by standing in the corner and being spanked."

Seeing Banggeng rolling on the ground due to hunger and anxious to go to school, Jia Zhang felt so distressed that she pulled the naughty child up from the ground and was just about to take her precious grandson to the restaurant to buy some soy milk, fried dough sticks and the like.

But when she felt her pocket, she found that she was penniless. Her private savings had long been lost by Jia Dongxu. She then looked at the rice jar and found that there were only about 30 kilograms of corn flour left.

It was too late to cook now. Jia Zhang suddenly had an idea and pointed to Sha Zhu's house in the middle courtyard: "My dear grandson, I just saw Sha Zhu carrying home a big golden fried dough stick. He must not have finished eating it yet. Hurry up and go now. After you finish eating, grandma will send you to school."

"Remember to leave some for grandma. She's hungry too. Don't just think about yourself..."

Before Jia Zhang finished her words, Bang Geng, whose eyes turned green with hunger, heard about this good thing and stopped throwing tantrums and rushed into Sha Zhu's house.

He didn't wash his face or wipe his hands, and was covered in dust and dirt.

He sat at the table as if no one was around, snatched the fried dough sticks from Shazhu's bowl, and gobbled them up like a starving ghost.

This look scared He Yushui who was standing by. He was afraid that the wolf cub would target him, so he hurriedly took the meal, closed the door, and ran back to his own room to eat.

Silly Zhu was taken away by a tiger. After a few seconds of shock, he saw that it was Bang Geng. He groaned and said in amazement: "You little brat, when good things happen to you, you don't think of your uncle He. When you are hungry, you always run to your uncle He. Uncle asks you, is your mother not at home today?"

Banggeng's mouth was full of oil, and he kept mumbling to Shazhu: "Whose uncle are you? My grandma said you are Shazhu, everyone calls you Shazhu, where is my mom? Why should I tell you!"

Sha Zhu was scolded by the grandparents early in the morning. If he were a normal person, he would have given the bastard a slap in the face.

But Shazhu just laughed and scolded, and even looked at Banggeng with some doting, as if he was Banggeng's biological father, with a face full of love.

"You, only your uncle He spoils you. The day before yesterday, I fried peanuts to entertain Li Weijun, and found that half of the peanuts were missing. Did you sneak around and steal oil?"

Bang Geng openly admitted the theft and even said with some disdain: "You put it in such a conspicuous place, waiting for me to take it."

"Besides, my grandma said, what delicious food do you have at home? I'll take whatever I want. I even peed in your leather shoes."
