Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

Evening

When the neighbors returned to the courtyard, they gathered in front of the main door when they heard that Sha Zhu and He Daqing were back. Sha Zhu was cooking in the house and the aroma was fragrant.

He Daqing was outside the door greeting old neighbors he knew, asking about what had happened to everyone over the years, but he didn't say a word about himself this time. At most, he just said that he was wronged, and everything else had to be kept secret for now.

Qin Huairu came back late, and she was nowhere to be seen in the crowd.

There was also Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai seemed like he didn't want to join in the fun. He stood in front of his house and stared at the crowd in the main house.

I saw Jia Zhang talking to He Daqing with a smile on her face. The two were very close to each other and seemed quite intimate.

Yi Zhonghai had lived opposite the Jia family and next door to the He family for decades, so he naturally knew about the troubles that happened to the two of them when they were young, which was why he felt a little troubled.

Now, whether He Daqing and Jia Zhang are mixed up together, or Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu are mixed up together, he can't accept it.

With elderly people above their heads, how could Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu take good care of him and Aunt Yi, two outsiders?

With more than a decade of planning and hard work about to go to waste, Yi Zhonghai could not help but grit his teeth. Looking around the compound, he found that there was no one more suitable to take care of him in his old age than Sha Zhu and the Jia family!

With his eyes flickering, Yi Zhonghai secretly thought: "Let's go to the police station tomorrow to inquire about the situation. If there is a problem with the He family's background and other places, I should persuade Huairu to stay away from the He family."

This old fox also sensed something was wrong. He had gone to the police station to inquire before, but Chief Zhang did not say the same thing at that time.

The matter was said to be very serious. He Daqing confessed many problems and the issue of being a traitor was set in stone.

Yi Zhonghai looked at He Daqing and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Even if it's all right, I still have to find a way to get you away. It took me more than ten years to finally train this fool, and you want to come back and pick peaches."

"no way!"

After finalizing the plan, Yi Zhonghai turned around with a sullen face and went into the house.

When He Daqing saw him return to the house, he quietly withdrew his gaze and concentrated on chatting with the neighbors in front of him.

Soon, the neighbors gathered in front of the main house began to disperse. Sha Zhu poked his head out and asked, "Aunt Jia, is Sister Qin not back yet?"

"What time is it!"

Jia Zhang smelled the aroma of meat wafting from the room and said with a smile, "Zhu Zi, Huai Ru is working overtime at the factory! Last time, Huai Ru took five or six days off in a row. Isn't this for the reward for full attendance?"

When Sha Zhu heard that it was because of such a trivial matter that he had not seen Sister Qin yet, he could not help but get angry and said, "What? What can you do with the one dollar attendance bonus?"

"At most, I can give you one more towel. Even one more towel won't cover half the cost of tonight's meal!"

When Jia Zhang heard Sha Zhu's complaint, she glanced at He Daqing and said warmly, "Zhu Zi! Don't you know the situation of my family?"

"Not to mention that I owe the old Yi family two hundred yuan and I'm starving. Last time I calculated, I only have four or five yuan left for food next month, not even enough to buy sweet potatoes. Do you think Huairu can care less about this one yuan?"

When Sha Zhu heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said, "Auntie, just wait and see. I will go back to the cafeteria to work tomorrow. How can I spend five or six yuan to buy food?"

"Starting tomorrow, I won't let you spend a penny, and you can eat delicious food every day!"

Hearing what Sha Zhu said, Jia Zhang's eyes were filled with laughter.

He Daqing continued on the other side: "Sister-in-law, Zhuzi is right. I will go to the steel mill tomorrow to ask. With my cooking skills, I will at least be a canteen monitor. When the time comes, with me and Shazhu here, your family will never have to worry about food!"

"That's great, that's great!" Jia Zhang laughed, her fat body shaking.

Thinking about having two chefs to support her family in the future, and what that life and food would be like, Jia Zhang couldn't even imagine it.

You have to eat a bowl of braised pork and then pour it out! Jia Zhang thought to herself.

Seeing Sha Zhu also started to smile foolishly, He Daqing kicked him and said, "Hurry up and go cook. If you lose your cooking skills, I will kick you to death."

"Bring two more bottles of wine when the time comes. We must drink well tonight to get rid of the bad luck!"

"okay!"

When he thought about Sister Qin going to drink with him in the evening, Sha Zhu grinned from ear to ear and strode back into the house.

"Sister-in-law, you should go home and clean up the table. Our food will be ready soon!"

Jia Zhang nodded and agreed: "Okay!"

The three little ones who were stealing food in the house slipped out in a row. He Daqing said, "Hey! I was standing at the door the whole time and didn't see when they slipped in. Old sister-in-law, your grandchildren are really smart!"

"Of course!" Jia Zhang smiled proudly and grabbed Banggeng, saying, "Banggeng, what should you do?"

"Thank you, silly master!"

After turning around and shouting at He Daqing, Bang Geng ran towards the Jia family.

"This kid!"

"Hey~ It's okay. Otherwise, why would I call him Banggeng Jijing? It's my fault in the beginning. Who made me call him Shazhu..."

……

Soon, the Jia family's table was filled with dishes.

Banggeng and Xiaodang were sitting at the table drooling with greed, but Jia Zhang glared at them and they pretended to sit properly.

He Daqing was sitting on the other side, and Sha Zhu was leaning against the door looking out.

"Why hasn't Sister Qin come back yet? The food is almost cold!"

Just as Sha Zhu was muttering, he saw Qin Huairu walking into the central courtyard with her head lowered.

"Sister Qin!"

Sha Zhu shouted and went forward enthusiastically.

Qin Huairu looked up and saw that it was Sha Zhu. She was stunned. Then she saw that he came out of her house, which made her even more surprised.

"Silly, you're back—"

"Of course, we are all wronged. Come in and eat first. The food is getting cold!"

"Try my cooking skills. I haven't cooked for more than ten days, so my cooking skills have declined..."

Qin Huairu followed him into the house hesitantly, not understanding what was going on. Not to mention the fact that Sha Zhu had returned to the courtyard, didn't Jia Zhang hate Sha Zhu the most?

How could he be allowed into the house when he still cared so much about his reputation?

As soon as she entered the room, Qin Huairu saw He Daqing sitting at the table and guessed his identity at a glance.

Jia Zhang hurriedly pulled Qin Huairu to sit next to her and explained, "Daqing, this is my daughter-in-law Huairu. You left early and didn't see her!"

After introducing He Daqing, Jia Zhang turned her head and looked at Qin Huairu and introduced her, "This is Sha Zhu's father, He Daqing!"

"Uncle He!"

Qin Huairu first met He Daqing, and then whispered to Jia Zhang: "Mom, what's going on with Shazhu and Mr. He——"

Jia Zhang smiled and said, "They were dragged down by the damn deaf old lady. Now that the truth has been revealed and it has nothing to do with them, they will naturally be released!"

Sha Zhu nodded and said, "Sister Qin, that's true. I'll be back to work in the cafeteria tomorrow. When I'm here, you won't have to work overtime until now to earn this little coin!"

"And Auntie!"

Sha Zhu patted his chest and looked at Jia Zhang: "From now on, I'm here, and the neighbors in the yard won't bully you anymore!"

"Your family is already in such a difficult situation, and they still have the nerve to ask you to pay 400 yuan for food rations. Don't worry, I will go find Xu Damao and the others tomorrow and ask them to hold a meeting to make them pay back the money!"

"Or I'll beat him to death!"

Seeing that Sha Zhu had just returned and was defending the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Qin Huairu was touched. When she thought about what she had experienced during this period, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Her thoughts were racing. She blamed Sha Zhu for coming back late, and she also secretly hated her for looking down on Sha Zhu and keeping him hanging.

No one protected her, so she ended up like this.

But I couldn't say these words.

Qin Huairu could only open her mouth to persuade: "Zhu Zi, this is really not the neighbors' business. It was Director Wang, Director Wang who asked our family to pay for it. We have no place to complain. Even if you beat Xu Damao to death, it will be useless!"

"Director Wang, Director Wang, she can't do this! It's not like she doesn't know your family—"

Sha Zhu was still yelling with his neck stiffened, but He Daqing interrupted him and said, "Sha Zhu, stop talking for now, let's eat. Look how greedy Bang Geng and the other two are!"

"I'm not greedy!" Banggeng wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said unwillingly.

Sha Zhu grinned and said, "Okay, let's eat first. Sister Qin, come and try my cooking!"

As he said this, Sha Zhu pushed the meat and vegetables in front of Qin Huairu.

He Daqing was so angry watching this scene. His son looked a bit like him, but not like him at all.

What a loser! He was played around by two widows.

He Daqing raised his head slightly, glad that he came back not too late.

He could play with the two widows in the palm of his hand.
