Siheyuan: Separate from the beginning and live with my sister

Qin Huairu continued to chat with Jia Zhang, but Jia Zhang became impatient.

For the sake of his future happy life, he had to suppress Qin Huairu today no matter what. If he let her make trouble, his good life would be ruined.

"Qin Huairu, as long as you still consider yourself the daughter-in-law of the Jia family and still recognize me as your mother-in-law, kneel down. Let's have a good talk in front of Dongxu today."

Qin Huairu secretly thought that it was not good. What Jia Zhang said was full of traps. If she was not careful, she would fall into the ditch.

It is said that Jia Zhang did not have any special brains in her life. The key point was that she used all her limited intelligence on Qin Huairu, and she made the young wife of the Jia family completely obedient.

If Qin Huairu did not acknowledge her as her mother-in-law today, Jia Zhang would go to the factory the next day to report the matter of taking over the job. She was still a temporary worker now, and the factory would most likely choose to keep quiet and fire her.

Besides, the house we live in now also belongs to the Jia family. No matter what, we can’t fall out with this old woman.

"Mom, you're angry again. Can't I kneel? Just say whatever you want to say."

Even though he was extremely reluctant, Qin Huairu still knelt down.

"Okay, let me ask you, Qin Huairu, why didn't you come to visit me during the time I was in the cell?"

"Also, why didn't you inform me about your replacement? This is the position left by my son. You took over without permission."

What you fear will come true. These words hit Qin Huairu's sore spot directly, and she had to answer it even if she had to bite the bullet.

Before she could finish her words, Qin Huairu started to cry and rubbed her nose, looking like a tearful pear blossom in the rain, which made the gentlemen who were watching the fun around her feel soft-hearted. How could he treat a weak young lady like this?

However, Jia Zhang was hard-hearted and didn't buy it at all. She urged Qin Huairu to answer quickly.

"Mom, how could I not want to visit you? But you know that after Dongxu's funeral, I was penniless. I have three children at home, and I can't even get enough to eat cornmeal steamed buns every day. How could I have the money and energy to visit you?"

"As for the replacement, I made the decision on my own. I had no choice at the time. In order to earn some money and to support my three children, I had to work in the factory. You don't know how hard it is for me to work in the workshop every day. How can a weak woman do heavy physical work? Fortunately, you are finally out now. Tomorrow I will go to the factory and ask them to give you the position so that you can work in the state-owned factory. I will take good care of you and the children at home."

Qin Huairu was indeed a master. He answered every question comprehensively and without favoritism. He even gave up his position in the steel rolling mill and prepared to give it to Jia Zhangshi. This gave Jia Zhangshi the "general".

Jia Zhang has always been lazy and usually doesn't even want to paste matchboxes, so how could she stand the work in the workshop? She originally wanted to use the work station to control Qin Huairu, but Qin Huairu refused to accept the offer and just threw the work station to her. If she was asked to take over the job, it would be no different from being dead.

Since the forceful approach doesn't work, we can only use the soft approach.

"Hey, Huairu, that's not what I meant. I understand how hard it is for you, but the steel mill is the only thing Dongxu has left. And I just got out of there and I'm penniless. How can I live?"

Qin Huairu smiled to herself, she knew that a lazy guy like you couldn't stand the hardship in the workshop. As for being penniless, that was pure nonsense, Dongxu's pension was still in her hands.

"Don't worry, I promise that from now on, as long as there is food in the house, your share will not be missing."

"Then let's put it this way. Mom is not an unreasonable person. In addition to daily food and drink, you can give me 10 yuan of retirement money from your monthly salary, and I will give you this Dongxu workstation."

Qin Huairu was so angry that her eyes turned red. I earn 18 yuan a month. I will give you 10 yuan as pension first, and I am also responsible for the food and drink of the whole family. What do you want?

"Mom, how is this possible? I'm an apprentice now, and I only make 18 yuan a month. I'm responsible for the food and drink of our family of five, and there's nothing left. How can I give you money for your retirement? How about I wait until I get a regular job and my salary increases?"

Jia Zhang was no pushover either. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law bargained as if they were discussing business. In the end, they decided on a plan in which Jia Zhang acknowledged that Qin Huairu had inherited the Jia family's job position, and Qin Huairu would give Jia Zhang 3 yuan in pension every month, starting from this month and not in arrears. In addition, Qin Huairu would be responsible for the family's food and drink.

Both of them had their own little plans in mind, and seeing that they couldn't gain any advantage from the other, they had no choice but to agree on this plan.

This made the neighbors who were watching the fun very happy. They didn't expect that the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law could be discussed in this way. The Jia family is indeed a good material for doing business.

The main contradiction in the Jia family was temporarily eased. The old woman had just returned home, so naturally she had to stir-fry some cabbage to welcome the guests. Qin Huairu just arrived at the kitchen and found that the white flour buns steamed in the morning were gone, and there was not a single one left.

"Have you seen the steamed buns in mom's kitchen?"

"What steamed buns? I haven't been to the kitchen since I entered the house. I told you that today is your mother-in-law's big day, why don't you prepare a few dishes to liven things up."

Qin Huairu, the young emperor next to her, nodded, meaning that Jia Zhang had eaten it. However, since it had already been eaten, she couldn't take it out again. Qin Huairu could only grit her teeth and go back to the kitchen to cook.

You still want to cook a few dishes, but why don’t you take a piss to see if you are worth it?

For dinner, Qin Huairu steamed a pot of steamed corn bread and took it away with a plate of pickled vegetables. You can eat it if you like.

This really pissed off Jia Zhang. Are you looking for trouble, Qin Huairu? She immediately exploded.

"Before I came back, you all ate white flour buns, but as soon as I came back, you changed to steamed corn bread. Who are you being so mean to?"

"Mom, didn't you say you didn't go into the kitchen? How do you know there are white flour buns at home?"

Jia Zhang was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to explain.

"Anyway, I just know it. What do you mean?"

"Well, since you want to know, I'll explain it to you. There are five people in our family, four if you don't count Huaihua. I make 5 yuan a month, minus the 4 yuan I give you. Can you calculate how many meals of white flour buns I can eat with this 18 yuan? I'm afraid it's not enough even if I eat steamed buns every day."

This was indeed the fact, and Jia Zhang knew that Qin Huairu was not lying, but she still felt unconvinced.

"I don't care. Anyway, you agreed to my request. Our monthly meals cannot be too bad. We must have meat at least once a week, and we must eat white flour buns every two days. Otherwise, I can't stand it."

Qin Huairu was tired after a day in the workshop and really didn't want to argue with Jia Zhang anymore. "Eat whatever you want, as long as I don't have to pay for it."
