Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

The more Jia Zhang talked, the more irritated she became. She kept nagging on and on. Qin Huairu looked at Jia Dongxu, who was fed up with it, and felt that she had to do something, otherwise she would have to accompany her husband to shiver all night again. After hesitating for a long time, she leaned over and whispered to Jia Zhang:

"Mom, the matter I inquired about before finally has some clues. How about letting Dongxu talk to his master?"

Jia Zhang's face lit up with joy, and she replied with a smile:

"You are still somewhat useful in your current state, but don't tell Lao Yi about this first. The children are here. We'll discuss it tomorrow..."

Zhang Xingwang just missed this big show in the hospital. Today he took Bai Xiaoya to Director Qi's house for dinner, which was also a way to get to know the place.

The two of them went back with Director Qi. After all, Director Qi was a leader, and he lived in a building that was built not long ago. The layout of two bedrooms and a living room was reasonable. The only thing that was better than Bai Xiaoya's house was that it was bigger.

There is a separate kitchen and a shared bathroom. Director Qi also said that the children are not here today and no one will disturb them, so we can talk freely.

Zhang Xingwang finally met his sister-in-law whom he had been longing for. After entering the house, the good brother took his wife's hand and pointed at Zhang Xingwang and his wife, introducing them as his good brothers. Although they looked out of place, they were good men with good looks and ambitions just like himself. He said seriously that his brother was a capable man, good in every way except that he didn't like to talk.

It’s worth it that the good brother protects her so carefully, the sister-in-law is really good-looking. Although she looks a little swollen with her big belly, she has fair skin and beautiful looks. Although her facial features are not as good as those of the short-legged wife, she has more mature charm.

He looked like a warm-hearted man. He looked at Zhang Xingwang for a few times and then dragged Bai Xiaoya to chat. The good brother dragged Zhang Xingwang to sit down, and watched Bai Xiaoya come back and take away the sack that Zhang Xingwang had placed at the door. He said awkwardly:

"Well...your sister-in-law knows you and doesn't treat you as an outsider. You can understand that, right?"

"I completely understand. I don't treat my sister-in-law as an outsider. Brother Qi, don't worry."

Director Qi's facial expression was a little poor, and he replied dejectedly:

"Your understanding is not wrong... Never mind, do as you please."

Director Qi was quite dignified at home. He sat down steadily and his sister-in-law brought a few cups of tea and prepared to pour water. Zhang Xingwang looked at the enjoyment in Director Qi's eyes and probably knew that he had not enjoyed such treatment many times.

The short-legged wife is a very capable and colorful person. She brought out some water and took the initiative to pour tea while saying that Director Qi was unkind and that her sister-in-law was still doing this and that even though she was pregnant. Her acting and lines were definitely a live version of the second female lead.

My sister-in-law also talked about how lazy my brother was at home. After a while, my brother couldn't sit still anymore. He rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen with familiarity. Then there was an exclamation.

Five minutes later, the good brother stopped washing the vegetables, stole a glance at the two women chatting passionately on the sofa, and said to Zhang Xingwang who was cutting meat in grief and anger:

"Brother, what's wrong with us? We are both good-looking and hardworking, but why can't we find wives who can even cook a goose?"

Zhang Xingwang paused while cutting vegetables, and seeing that he was almost catching up with Sha Zhu in knife skills, he suddenly felt sad and replied dejectedly:

"Brother Qi, you are better than me. My wife can't cook at all. That's fine, but do you know how I have been living at home for the past year..."

"Stop talking, man, don't let them laugh at you. I understand how you feel. I am the same..."

"Hey, we are brothers in trouble. Brother Qi, hurry up. I brought some wine so we can drink less."

Bai Xiaoya, who was lying on the sofa, looked at her amiable sister-in-law and became closer to her. After a few words, the two of them became familiar with each other. As for what Director Qi said about his wife's character of not confiding easily, she did not notice it at all.

The two of them were chatting so enthusiastically that in just ten minutes it was as if they had grown up together. They felt like they had met too late and dared to talk about any topic, which left the two brothers stunned.

When the meal was almost ready, Bai Xiaoya couldn't sit still seeing her sister-in-law stroking her belly with a loving look on her face. She leaned over and whispered a few words to her sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law's eyes widened. She looked at Director Qi who was busy in the kitchen, curled her lips in disdain, and looked at Zhang Xingwang who was leaning against the cigarette holder smoking in surprise. She shook her head in disbelief.

Then he leaned over and whispered in Bai Xiaoya's ear. At this time, Bai Xiaoya's eyes, even the corners of her mouth were almost cracked, and she looked like she had suffered some kind of blow. Then the two of them began to talk in her ear while laughing, pointing at the two brothers, making the two brothers in the kitchen confused.

Bai Xiaoya was a perceptive person. Seeing that her sister-in-law was pregnant and it was not convenient for her, she quickly served the dishes and rice. After everyone sat down, the good brother asked them to eat while it was hot. While picking up meat for her sister-in-law, he smiled and said:

"Xingwang, you are too polite. You brought so many things that the food prepared by your sister-in-law was not used. But I will not be polite to you. This meal is thanks to you. To be honest, I can't remember when I ate a goose like this."

"Brother Qi, what you said is true. We are brothers. If you had brought me to meet my sister-in-law earlier, you would have eaten it a long time ago.

I tell you, working hard is to fill your stomach, we must not forget this original intention. It’s not a big deal that you work overtime every day. I have a friend who has forgotten his original intention…”

Director Qi quickly covered Zhang Xingwang's mouth, turned his head to look at his daughter-in-law with shining eyes, and said righteously:

"Brother, you've been out a lot lately, and you don't know if I can get home on time, right, brother?"

Listening to Director Qi's gritting teeth, Zhang Xingwang said insincerely that he understood. Looking at the full bowl of food that his good brother had personally picked for him, he could only wait until he finished eating.

For the rest of the time, Zhang Xingwang, under the strict supervision of his elder brother, voluntarily gave his sister-in-law a silent image.

Watching the two women washing things in the kitchen, Zhang Xingwang started talking about business with Director Qi.

"Brother Qi, I want to go to the south before the New Year. Do you have any help?"

"South? Can you be more specific? How long will it take?"

"About a month, not sure. I want to go and see the borders and sea areas of our motherland."

Zhang Xingwang thought about it and decided that it would be most reliable to ask a good guy about the stroll. Director Liu from the Ministry of Culture could indeed do it, but he didn't want to be too involved with him.

After all, these days it's all about obeying arrangements. If you go there, you have to produce a song. It would be troublesome if someone gets interested in you and issues a transfer order for you to report. Not only would you have no acquaintances in the Ministry of Culture, you might also be liquidated. It's easy for me now. I can still get the song, but I have much more room for maneuver and the people there are more reliable than those in the Ministry of Culture.
