Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Liu Ping'an sent Qin Jingru to the door and then went back.

He was afraid of being called a bootlicker again.

Qin Jingru walked into the yard of her home carrying her things. There was no one in the yard. The voices of her parents came from the main room.

Qin Jingru's mother walked out of the main room and came over anxiously when she saw Qin Jingru.

"You girl, you didn't tell us where you were going. You made us so anxious. If you don't come back, we will go look for you."

Qin Jingru's mother patted her arm, took off the backpack, and then found that Qin Jingru was limping when she walked.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I sprained my ankle when I went to pick wild vegetables."

"How can you be so careless, kid?"

Qin Jingru's mother put down the backpack, didn't care about the wild vegetables inside, and helped Qin Jingru into the main room.

"By the way, your father has already asked the matchmaker in the village to find a blind date for you. When the other person comes to the village, remember to go and see him."

Qin Jingru's mother gave instructions as they walked.

"Mom...I don't want to go."

Qin Jingru broke free from her mother's hand, sat on the bench in the main room, and said firmly.

"You kid, if you say you don't want to go, then why don't you get married at such an old age?"

Qin Jingru's father was sitting in the room smoking. He frowned at his daughter and scolded her softly.

"I tell you, if someone comes, you have to go whether you like it or not, otherwise our money will be wasted. It's two dollars."

Qin Jingru's mother sat aside, cleaning up the debris with a dustpan.

But when she squatted down, she saw that Qin Jingru was not wearing the same patched shoes as before.

But a pair of brand new and clean cloth shoes.

"Jingru, where did you get these cloth shoes?"

Qin Jingru was secretly delighted when she found her mother noticed her shoes. She said proudly, "Someone else gave them to me?"

"Do you have a partner?"

Mother Qin straightened up and asked seriously, "Why didn't you tell us that you had a date? Is he from the same village or from another village? What is he like? What is his family background?"

"Yes, daughter, you have to be careful of those rascals. You can only judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart."

Mother Qin suddenly thought of something, gritted her teeth fiercely, sat next to Qin Jingru, and asked in a low voice.

Qin Jingru's face instantly turned red. She covered her face and said, "Mom, why do you ask such a question?"

"Don't interrupt me. Just tell me whether you have it or not. Don't lie to me. I have raised you since you were a child. I even know you better than you know yourself."

Qin Jingru rolled her eyes at her mother, looked at her father, and said something in her mother's ear.

Mother Qin looked at Qin Jingru's expression and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately you know how to love yourself..."

"By the way, you haven't told us yet, who is that person?"

"Yes, it's Brother Ping An."

"Brother Ping'an? Who is he?" Qin's mother was a little puzzled. What kind of a name is this? And there's a surname of Ping?

Father Qin stood up excitedly and said, "Daughter, you are not talking about Liu Ping'an, are you?"

Mother Qin was also stunned when she heard this, and then the two of them looked at Qin Jingru, who nodded embarrassedly.

Father Qin laughed happily and said, "I was saying that my daughter is so beautiful, how could these people living in the countryside be worthy of her?"

Mother Qin was also very excited, and even thought that it would be great if the answer to the question she had just asked was yes.

If we just make it a done deal, my daughter won’t have to worry about her next life.

Qin Jingru didn't expect what her mother was thinking, otherwise she would be speechless.

She hurriedly told her mother and father what Liu Ping'an had said, and they both nodded after hearing it. After all, career was more important, and there was no need to rush.

At this time, Qin's mother slapped her head, ran outside, and took out the bag from Qin Jingru's backpack. She took a look and shouted excitedly, "Master, come and see, there are so many things."

Qin's father ran out in a hurry. He opened the bag and saw two pheasants and some pork inside. He couldn't stop smiling.

"My son-in-law is so polite, giving me such an expensive gift so casually."

He smiled, slapped his thigh, hurried back to the bedroom, and was about to go out with a box in his hand.

Qin Jingru wondered where her father was going so late at night.

Mother Qin was also surprised and asked quickly, "Boss, where are you going so late at night?"

"I'll go to the matchmaker's house and ask her to cancel the blind date. Those poor boys are not worthy of my girl. Don't let those poor guys affect Jingru's reputation."

Qin's mother also realized that her daughter had a lover.

I can’t go on blind dates again, otherwise Liu Ping’an will get angry and that won’t be good.

She hurriedly followed him, and for a moment Qin Jingru was the only one left in the room, sitting there in confusion.

……

Liu Ping'an didn't know what was going on in Qin Jingru's family.

After he sent Qin Jingru home, he walked straight home.

When they got home, the three little ones sat obediently outside the main room, chewing candies in their mouths, mumbling and playing with ants on the ground with wooden sticks.

Their faces were as dirty as if they had fallen into a paddy field.

"Where are Third Uncle and the others?"

Lele saw her brother coming back and ran over happily. Liu Pingan held her in his arms and heard Xiaoqiang say:

"Uncle San and Sister Xia and Sister Yan went to learn how to ride a bicycle. They will probably be back soon."

Liu Ping'an nodded, pinched Lele's nose, and said to them, "Look at your faces. Let's go wash our faces."

Liu Ping'an took the three little ones to the water tank.

There was a small piece of soap placed next to the water tank, which made Liu Ping'an laugh and cry.

A large bar of soap was cut into many pieces by them, and they had to take out one piece at a time for fear that it would be stolen.

But the three little ones did not complain. They wet their hands and faces with water, then rubbed them with soap, making foam all over their faces and hands.

Liu Ping'an scooped up a bucket of water, and the three little ones washed their hands and faces one by one, using water very economically.

There's nothing we can do, life is hard.

Water resources are in short supply. People can choose not to take a bath or wash their face, but they must not go without drinking water.

After the three little ones finished washing, Liu Ping'an rewarded them with a few candies. They happily took the candies back to the bedroom.

According to Lele, all her candies were taken away by her mother.

So she had to hide the candy too.

Liu Ping'an really wanted to say that the candy was hidden in the wall and the ants took it away that day.

But seeing Lele's excitement, he still didn't say anything. He thought he would regret it when this girl suffered a loss.

When Liu Ping'an walked into the main room, he saw his grandmother, aunt, third aunt, and Zhang Guifang sitting there making clothes.

In just one afternoon, they had already completed several pieces.

Liu Ping'an was amazed by the speed and efficiency.

"You're back safely. Come, try on some clothes."

Zhang Guifang was still excited. She stood up happily, picked up a piece of clothing and handed it to Liu Ping'an.

Liu Ping'an looked at the piece of clothing in his hand, then picked up a few pieces on the table and found that they were all coats.

"Mom, don't you want to make pants?"

"What kind of pants? Just have clothes to wear."

Grandma rolled her eyes at Liu Ping'an and patiently explained, "This way, the cloth can be used to make more clothes. Pants are the easiest to get dirty and damaged, so it's not cost-effective to make pants."

Liu Ping'an opened his mouth, but gave up arguing with his grandma and the others.

Clothes are clothes. He will bring back cloth later anyway, and they will make pants then.

It is still necessary to educate them with facts and not argue about areas where they are good at.

“Hahaha, this bike is so comfortable to ride.”

When Liu Ping'an heard his third uncle's hearty laughter, he ran out of the main room and saw his third uncle riding a bicycle with Xiaoxia and Xiaoyan on the ride.
