I messed up the Siheyuan

Wang Ping's words completely frustrated the Qin sisters.

Seeing the two people's pitiful appearance, Wang Ping felt sorry for them and said, "Sister Huairu, Sister Jingru, actually!

It's inappropriate for you to look for me and Guangtian.

No matter what, we are still unmarried young men.

If I lend my place to Sister Jingru, people will always spread gossip.

This doesn't do anybody any good.

I think...

You should actually go find the old lady in the backyard about this matter!"

"Old lady?!" Qin Huairu was stunned.

"Yes!" Wang Ping nodded, "The old lady's house is the main house in the backyard, a large house of more than 40 square meters, and she lives there alone.

Even if Sister Jingru goes to stay here, it won’t affect her.”

"This..." Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Will the old lady agree?"

"That's amazing!" Wang Ping said with a smile, "The old lady doesn't come out often because her legs and feet are not very flexible.

She was actually quite bored staying in the room alone.

When Sister Jingru went over, she could not only talk to her and relieve her boredom, but also help her with some small chores like washing and cleaning.

You say, what a great thing this is!

What is there for the old lady to disagree with?"

These words made the Qin sisters' slightly gloomy faces relax.

The two men thanked Wang Ping, said a few polite words, and then walked towards the Chuihua Gate impatiently.

After that, about ten minutes later, the two of them walked out of the deaf old lady's house with a look of relief on their faces.

When they walked to a place where there was no one, the smile on Qin Jingru's face disappeared, and was replaced by a trace of resentment.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu said helplessly, "Jingru, what's wrong with you?"

"Sister!..." Qin Jingru said angrily: "That old woman has too many things to do!

I was just staying at her place for a few days, but she treated me like a servant.

What...

You have to get her water to wash in the morning and evening!

Cook her three meals a day!

Do her laundry and clean the house!

Oh! ...By the way...I also have to empty her urinal...Oh my god...so gross.

And...if I want to eat with her, I have to give her a pound of food every day.

This old lady is too calculating."

"That's enough, Jingru." Qin Huairu scolded impatiently, "You are a country girl, why are you being so pretentious in the city?

The old lady lets you live in her house for free, so what's wrong with you doing some work for her?

You don't work in the countryside?

Staying at home every day, acting like a big shot?

snort!...

If you do that, I will definitely break your legs!"

These words weakened Qin Jingru's momentum.

But she still whispered with a hint of reluctance: "There's nothing like her!

snort!...

Not only do I have to work for her, I also have to pay her food..."

"Alright!..." Qin Huairu waved her hands, "Stop grumbling.

It is only right that you are asked to hand over grain.

Nowadays, no one has enough food.

How much food ration does the old lady have per month?

Not to mention that you eat for free at her place, even during meal time, if you eat one more bite, she will have to eat one less bite, do you know that?

You should think about how to ask Hepingzi for food, right?"

"Sister!..." Qin Jingru replied: "I just thought about it, the food issue may not be that difficult!"

"Not difficult?!" Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Qin Jingru in confusion, "Jingru, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Oh!...Sister!..." Qin Jingru retorted: "You don't know...

Before, Purchasing Officer Wang wanted to give me food.

He gave food to the other two people in our team who were running around for him.

I asked for the money because I thought I would need travel expenses to enter the old city.

If I had known this would happen, I should have asked for half food and half money."

Qin Huairu looked at Qin Jingru with a look of doubt and asked, "Jingru, what do you mean...

Let Pingzi exchange the money for you and then exchange it for food?"

"Yes!" Qin Jingru nodded. "Sister, this is better than asking him to borrow food, isn't it?"

"Yes!... Jingru, you are right." Qin Huairu responded: "Talk to Pingzi first...

Let’s see if it works?

If that doesn't work, it should be easier to ask Hepingzi for food."

"Then...sister..." Qin Jingru asked again: "How much food should I exchange for?

The old lady asked me to pay one pound of grain every day.

Can I exchange ten kilograms?"

"Ten pounds?" Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly, "One pound a day, ten pounds is ten days.

In ten days, your case should be almost done.

OK! Then ten kilograms!"

......

After the two sisters discussed it, Qin Jingru immediately ran to the front yard and found Wang Ping.

Wang Ping did not make things difficult for Qin Jingru when she asked to exchange ten yuan for ten kilograms of grain, and agreed directly.

Of course, these ten kilograms of grain were not exchanged with Wang Ping, but with the steel rolling mill.

If he had exchanged it with Wang Ping privately, once the news got out, he would definitely be guilty of "speculation and profiteering".

......

"I am Qin Jingru, and I am currently a member of the Qin Family Brigade in the Red Star Commune of Sijiu City!"

"In order to support the construction of the Red Star Steel Mill a few days ago, I used my spare time to run around the various brigades under the Red Star Commune to collect the necessary materials needed by the steel mill."

"Then I accepted a 20 yuan reward from the Red Star Steel Mill!"

"Now, because my family is short of food, I want to exchange the ten yuan reward for ten kilograms of corn flour. I hope the steel mill will approve it."

According to Wang Ping's narration, Qin Jingru wrote a note and put his fingerprint on it.

With this note, Wang Ping went to the steel mill and exchanged the grain easily.

The steel mills are really good at this.

They did not use official language to shirk responsibility for the matter.

after all!...

In any case, Qin Jingru made a contribution in purchasing wild boar meat.

If it weren't for her, it would have taken a lot of effort to get that piece of wild boar meat!

There is no need for the steel mill to make things difficult for others just for ten kilograms of grain.

Besides, you are making things difficult for others now, but what will you do in the future?

Will you stop buying things? Will you stop asking others for help?

......

After Wang Ping came back with the grain, he went straight to the Jia family and handed the grain to Qin Jingru.

Then, without saying anything more, he turned and left.

Looking at the grain in Qin Jingru's hand, Jia Zhang's eyes turned green.

Qin Huairu, who was standing by, couldn't help revealing an expression of envy and desire on her face.

Seeing the two of them like this, Qin Jingru felt a little scared.

She hugged the food tightly in her arms and said, "Sister, I will take the food to the old lady first."

After saying that, she ran towards the backyard.

Jia Zhang stared at Qin Jingru's back until he could no longer see her. Then she licked her lips and whispered in a low voice, "Huai Ru, can't you think of a way to deal with so much food?"
