The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Chapter 402: The Jia Family’s Dilemma

Qin Huairu's words deafened Jia Zhang. She looked at Qin Huairu with an uncertain expression, wanting to curse but unable to say it.

In fact, Jia Zhang has now also noticed that there is basically no sound of people talking in the Jia family in the courtyard.

Other families no longer took the Jia family seriously, and Jia Zhang was very disappointed about this.

You have to know that when Jia Dongxu was still alive, the Jia family was a wealthy family in the courtyard.

How could this happen? Only the Jia family looks down on others.

Qin Huairu saw that Jia Zhang's face was ugly, but she didn't shut up. Instead, she continued, "I know this is not nice to hear, but this is the fact. Mom, you should also face the facts."

Qin Huairu said out loud everything she wanted to say. She had been holding these words in her heart for a long time.

The current situation of the Jia family, apart from other things, is definitely largely due to Jia Zhangshi. Who made Jia Zhangshi love to throw tantrums all day long? The impression she gave to the neighbors in the courtyard was that she was a take-advantage person. By the way, Bang Geng's dishonest behavior was also partly to blame.

Before, no matter how much trouble the two of them had, Yi Zhonghai would always help them out. But now Yi Zhonghai has retreated to the second line and no longer manages the Siheyuan. Coupled with the falling out with the Jia family, this has led to the current predicament of the Jia family.

After listening to Qin Huairu's words, Jia Zhang was about to get angry, but gradually, Jia Zhang realized that Qin Huairu was not wrong, and she also clearly knew the embarrassing position of the Jia family in the courtyard.

"Then what do you think we should do? They won't bully us, an orphan and a widow, right?"

Jia Zhang began to worry. Jia Zhang came from the old era and had seen countless things. She also knew clearly that if it weren't for the good times, if it were twenty years ago, the Jia family would have been wiped out long ago with their situation.

Just like Yi Zhonghai, he is a senior worker in the steel rolling mill and the manager of the courtyard house. He is respected by everyone and seems to have a very glorious life. But why does he have to find someone to take care of him in his old age?

It’s because Yi Zhonghai is afraid that his family will be destitute when he is old, so he searches everywhere, hoping to find an old-age caregiver who suits his taste.

Seeing that Jia Zhang was beginning to get frightened, Qin Huairu shook her head and said calmly, "Mom, don't worry about this. As long as our family doesn't cause too much trouble, no one will bully us. Besides, Banggeng will soon grow up. It will only take about ten years."

After Qin Huairu's persuasion, Jia Zhang finally breathed a sigh of relief and was no longer afraid of anything.

"That's good. It seems our family should keep a low profile from now on."

Qin Huairu nodded after hearing this and felt relieved. Fortunately, she knew that Jia Zhang valued the Jia family more than anyone else, so she brought up this matter. Fortunately, everything went as she wished in the end.

Qin Huairu had long wanted to have a good talk with Jia Zhang. She couldn't quarrel with others all day long, and she would throw a tantrum when there was a quarrel. If things got out of hand, she would cry and shout for Old Jia to come up.

Nowadays, this is very hateful. No matter who it is, no one will be in a good mood if they are treated like this by Jia Zhang.

Qin Huairu believed that as long as Jia Zhangshi stopped making trouble, she could still rely on her to establish the Jia family's reputation in the courtyard again.

Although her reputation is not very good now, it is still better than Jia Zhang's.

At least to outsiders, Qin Huairu still has a reputation of being filial. In the eyes of outsiders, Qin Huairu works diligently every day under the oppression of her vicious mother-in-law Jia Zhang, goes to work, and keeps the house in order. This is a good daughter-in-law.

It has to be said that there are still many people in the courtyard who feel sorry for Qin Huairu. Everyone is condemning Jia Zhang and feels sorry for Qin Huairu.

When Liu Minghui passed by, he found that Jia Zhang was looking at him, but after all, she was looking outside from the house, so he couldn't say anything, so he could only speed up and walk through the middle courtyard.

When he got home, Yu Li had been waiting for him to come back for a long time.

"Why did it take so long? It's just a meal. I almost thought you weren't coming back."

When Yu Li saw Liu Minghui come into the room, she hurriedly took a towel and handed it to him, while complaining about him.

Liu Minghui smiled and took the towel to wipe his face, explaining: "It was Liu Haizhong. I don't know when he saw it and went over to join in the fun. There were so many people, so he ate a little slower."

After hearing this, Yu Li said angrily, "I think Liu Haizhong wanted to ask you for help. You didn't know that he came here early in the afternoon, but you were not there at that time, so he left."

Yu Li said, and asked curiously, "I heard that you got a promotion. Is that true?"

"Yes, from today on, I am the deputy director of logistics. Deputy Director Li promoted me and said that I should be responsible for the material support of the workers."

Liu Minghui nodded and responded casually.

Yu Li frowned after hearing this: "This doesn't seem like a good job. There are so many workers in the steel mill. This job looks tiring."

Liu Minghui laughed out loud when he saw this.

"You don't know your husband's ability yet. He wouldn't be afraid of even several times as many people, let alone 18,000."

What Liu Minghui meant was that as long as there was a guarantee, these would not be a problem.

After hearing this, Yu Li rolled her eyes at him.

"Don't try to show off. Everyone is used to it now. You should be careful with things that don't come from anywhere."

Yu Li kept on nagging and giving instructions. In her opinion, it was good for the family to live a good life quietly and there was no need to attract attention.

Liu Minghui nodded in understanding, "You're right, I have my own plan for this matter."

The night passed.

In the morning, Liu Minghui got up early. While eating breakfast, Liu Minghui remembered the bicycle tickets issued by the factory yesterday.

I quickly asked Yu Li, "By the way, there was a bicycle ticket in my clothes yesterday. Did you wash it?"

Yu Li was serving food to the two of them. When she heard Liu Minghui's words, she stopped and said, "Ah, I didn't see that. The clothes are still in the inner room. I'll go find them and take a look."

Having said that, Yu Li hurried into the house to look for the clothes she had changed out of last night.

"I found it. Here you go. I wonder if this ticket has a time limit?"

Yu Li came out and handed the money to Liu Minghui.

There is also two hundred yuan in it as a reward from the steel mill yesterday.

Liu Minghui didn't take it, but said to Li: "You take it. Let's go buy a bicycle someday when we are free."

After hearing this, Yu Li said nothing and put all the money and bills in the drawer.

Liu Minghui took his son to eat, and they both slurped the porridge.

"Why are you in such a hurry to eat? There's still some in the pot."

Seeing the way the father and son ate, Yu Li was at a loss whether to laugh or cry and started scolding Liu Bowen.

"Mom, I want another bowl."

After hearing this, Liu Bowen didn't hesitate and directly handed the bowl to Yu Li, asking her to help serve the rice.

Liu Minghui, who was standing by, also laughed when he saw this.

"Yes, having food to eat is a blessing. Our family lacks everything except food."

Owning an entire space is Liu Minghui's confidence. No matter what happens outside, he will definitely not starve at home.
