Upon hearing this, Ma Jianguo said with a bitter face: "Wife, you don't know me yet. Even if I have some evil intentions, I dare not do anything serious." After saying this, he rubbed his twisted red ears, and his expression showed that he was as aggrieved as he could be.

Lin Ping almost laughed out loud when he saw this. Director Wang glared at Lin Ping and said, "Just because I didn't say anything about you doesn't mean you're fine. If Qingyan comes to complain to me someday, I'll show you how I'll deal with you, you little bastard. You're really getting bolder and bolder."

Lin Ping smiled awkwardly and said, "How is that possible? There will never be such a day."

Director Wang said unhappily, "Remember what you said today, kid."

After leaving Director Wang's house, Lin Ping breathed a sigh of relief. The matter was finally resolved satisfactorily. All that remained was to arrange for Ya Ru to work in the steel mill. (Ya Ru still called her Ya Ru.)

Siheyuan.

When he returned to the west courtyard, before he entered the house, he saw a small figure running towards him. Without thinking, Lin Ping hugged her in his arms and kissed her twice, saying, "Nuonuo misses daddy so much."

The little girl also giggled and kissed Lin Ping twice, making Lin Ping's face full of the little girl's saliva.

Arriving at the main house, Lin Ping asked, "What time is it? Why isn't Nuonuo sleeping yet?"

Hearing this, Lin Qingya said unhappily, "Why don't you ask me your precious daughter? She refuses to sleep and insists on waiting for you to come back. No matter what my sister and I say, it won't work."

Looking at his daughter rubbing her eyes in his arms, Lin Ping said distressedly, "Nuonuo, be good, let's go to bed."

The little girl forced herself to say, "Sleep with daddy."

Not to mention the Lin family, the news that He Yushui was transferred to the steel rolling mill had already spread throughout the compound. People in the compound were not all fools. Everyone knew how He Yushui got into the Propaganda Department of the steel rolling mill. However, since He Yushui was Wang Xiuzhi's half-daughter, they couldn't find any reason to blame.

Yan's house in the front yard.

Yan Jiefang said irritably, "Dad, look at how He Yushui got into the steel mill, and got such a good job in the Propaganda Department. It was all thanks to Lin Ping's help. I don't think he wanted to help our family at all."

Upon hearing this, Yan Fugui said coldly: "He Yushui is Wang Xiuzhi's half-daughter. Who are you to Wang Xiuzhi? Why should she waste her favor to arrange a job for you?"

This sentence made Yan Jiefang speechless, but he still said stubbornly: "That's because you, the Third Uncle, have no prestige, otherwise why would Lin Ping not arrange a job for me?"

Yan Fugui was angry when he heard this: "Look who the Lin family is helping. They are just trying to shut everyone up. What can I do?"

Yu Li lowered her head and sneered in her heart, but she also made up her mind to find Lin Ping.

The Jia family in the middle courtyard.

Qin Huairu felt uncomfortable seeing that Sha Zhu's family was living better and better. She was unhappy that her younger sister was living better than her. But now in the courtyard, apart from Xu Damao, there were few people who helped her. Even Qin Jingru's attitude became much colder. This was not a good thing.

Jia Zhang was chewing on a steamed bun and said dissatisfiedly, "Huai Ru, you can't let us eat this all the time. How can we bear it for a long time?"

Banggeng has been afraid of hunger in the past two years. Although he agrees with his grandmother's words, his mouth is not idle. He eats the steamed buns in big mouthfuls.

Qin Huairu felt even more upset watching the children eating the steamed buns, and unknowingly went out and came to Yi Zhonghai's house.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai's family was having dinner. The food was much better than that of the Jia family. They ate steamed buns made of two-grain flour, and there was a boiled egg in front of Xiaobao.

When Yi Zhonghai saw Qin Huairu coming to his house, he knew exactly what she was doing there, so he sat down and asked without getting up, "Huairu, what are you doing here?"

Qin Huairu felt a chill in her heart when she saw Yi Zhonghai's attitude, but she continued, "Uncle Yi, my family is in such a difficult situation. Can you lend me some food? It's not good for the children to always eat coarse grains. Huaihua is still too young."

Yi Zhonghai sneered in his heart when he heard this. With your Jia family's conditions, you still want to eat fine grains? I don't know how you dare to think about it, so he frowned and said, "Huai Ru, we have just started to restore the ration. My family only has so much fine grain. Not only do we have to take care of the old lady, but we also have to take care of your aunt Yi and Xiaobao, so I can't do anything."

Qin Huairu smiled bitterly and said, "I am making things difficult for Master Yi." Then she turned and left.

Auntie Yi asked curiously, "This is unlike Qin Huairu's style. Given her personality, she would at least try to figure it out and not leave so easily."

Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "My dear, Qin Huairu in our courtyard is not the smartest, but she is smarter than most people. She knows that she can't get food from our house, so she doesn't want to waste any more time."

Qin Huairu went out to visit Sha Zhu's house, and when she heard He Yushui's laughter, she turned and went to the backyard.

In front of Xu Damao’s house.

Qin Jingru looked at Qin Huairu and asked, "Sister, what do you want to see me for?"

When Qin Huairu told her about the matter, Qin Jingru directly refused: "Sister, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but who doesn't have difficulties now? If your family can't eat, I can help them, after all, we are sisters, but it's a bit too much for your family to want to eat fine grains. My family can't even eat a few meals of fine grains a month, how can you ask for it?"

Qin Huairu blushed when she heard this and choked up, "Jingru, I'm doing this for Huaihua too. She's still so young, how can she always eat coarse grains?"

Qin Jingru was young after all, and she couldn't stand Qin Huairu's offensive. Just when she couldn't stand it, Xu Damao appeared and said, "Sister Qin, I don't like what you said. What do you mean by for the sake of the child? There are many people with younger children than yours. Every family lives this way. When your family runs out of fine grains, you think about other families. What about other families?"

Qin Jingru had Xu Damao's support, so she immediately gained confidence and said, "Yes, sister, you should go back."

Qin Huairu saw Aunt Er coming out of the house. She didn't want to be laughed at. Now that Yi Zhonghai didn't care about her family, it was useless for her to make a fuss, so she could only smile bitterly and turn around and leave.

Seeing that Qin Huairu didn't threaten him with what happened between them, Xu Damao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Jingru, go home and have dinner."

A few days later, Li Wan was successfully selected and did not use Lin Ping's quota. This made Li Qing's family very happy. In the evening, they bought some meat for the first time to celebrate.

But the people in the hospital didn't think so. They all believed that it was Lin Ping who helped, so when they saw Li Qing and Liu Li, they asked about Li Wan's work background.

Yan Jiefang and Yu Li were a little anxious when they saw that Li Wan was selected but there was no news yet.

At night, West Courtyard.

Lin Qingyan opened the gate and saw that it was Yu Li. She smiled and let her in and asked, "Yu Li, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

The two came to the main room, and Yu Li blushed and said, "Brother Pingzi, I want to ask you for a favor."

Seeing Yu Li coming so late, Lin Ping had some guesses in his mind, and asked with a smile: "Just tell me what's the matter."

Yu Li smiled bitterly and said, "You all know what kind of temper the Yan family has. Yan Jiecheng and I can't live together anymore. We'll have to get divorced sooner or later. I thought I could find a job for myself this time, but I don't think it's possible, so I want to ask Brother Pingzi for help. Of course, I'll pay you as much as you should, but you know I don't have any money. Can you pay me back slowly after I start working?"

After saying this, he stared at Lin Ping closely, fearing that Lin Ping would say he was unwilling to help.

Lin Qingyan and Lin Qingya had a pretty good relationship with Yu Li. Seeing how pitiful Yu Li was, they couldn't help but sympathize and said, "Brother Pingzi, if you can help me, please do so."

Hearing this, Lin Ping looked at Yu Li and said, "Yu Li, are you looking for a job just to divorce Yan Jiecheng?"

Yu Li nodded and said, "Yan Jiecheng is not a man at all. My family was almost starving to death. My sister came to borrow food. We had food, but we refused to lend it to her. Yan Jiecheng didn't say a word. From then on, I wanted to divorce him. If I wasn't afraid of adding burden to my family, I would have divorced him long ago."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Then you must not look for a job, otherwise you won't be able to get a divorce."

Yu Li was puzzled when she heard this: "Why?"

Lin Ping shook his head and said, "You should know the Yan family's temperament. If you have a job, do you think the Yan family will let you go? Even if they agree to a divorce, they will make you give up your work position. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for you to get a divorce."

Yu Li swayed when she heard that. She knew in her heart that Lin Ping was right. If she really had a job, how could the Yan family let her, a hen that lays eggs, leave?

Seeing Yu Li in a daze, Lin Qingya patted Lin Ping and said, "Brother Pingzi, stop teasing her."

Yu Li looked at Lin Qingya in confusion. Lin Qingya smiled and said, "You are really stupid. Can't you get a divorce first and then find a job?"

Yu Li's eyes lit up when she heard that, then she frowned and said, "But I don't have any reason to divorce now."

Lin Qingya smiled and said, "Your Yan Jiecheng and Qin Huairu have been getting close recently. You can start from this aspect."

Yu Li was stunned when she heard this, and then she understood. Ever since borrowing the grain, she had not allowed Yan Jiecheng to touch her, which showed how uncomfortable Yan Jiecheng was enduring. In addition, the widow Qin was trying to seduce him, and the two of them hit it off right away. It was just unknown how far they had progressed.

Then he nodded and said, "Sister Qingya, I understand. I will come to find Brother Pingzi after I get divorced." After that, he turned and left.

After Yu Li left, Lin Ping asked curiously, "Qingya, how do you know that Yan Jiecheng and Qin Huairu are close? Qin Huairu should know the nature of the Yan family, so how could she seduce Yan Jiecheng?"

Lin Qingya spread her hands and said, "How should I know? I just came home from get off work one day and saw the two of them talking and laughing in the alley, and they were quite close to each other. It's that simple."

Lin Qingyan shook her head and said, "Qin Huairu has no one to support her in the courtyard now. If the family wants to eat well, they have to find another way out. Perhaps seducing Yan Jiecheng is a helpless move."

Lin Ping nodded his head when he heard this and said, "Come on, why are you talking about this? It's getting late, let's go to bed."

Lin Qingyan asked, "Are you not picking up Qingxue today?"

Lin Qingya smiled and said, "Sister, you forgot that Qingxue is having her period today."

Before Lin Qingyan could say anything, Lin Ping pulled her into the inner room...

The next morning.

While eating breakfast, Lin Qingyan looked at Lin Ping with a half-smile and said, "Brother Pingzi, who is the Ya Ru that Aunt Wang was talking about?"

Lin Ping's hair stood up when he heard this. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Qingyan, Yaru is also a poor person. I saw that the sisters were having a hard time, so I helped them."
