Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

In fact, Jia Dongxu also felt that this was impossible in his heart, but there was a voice in his voice that thought that if he could succeed after a try, then wouldn’t the pressure on their Jia family be relieved? His mother could be said to be the most feared person in the courtyard, so it didn’t matter if he gave it a try.

Xu Erni looked at her husband coldly, and felt that she could not rely on him for anything. Sometimes he was even worse than a woman. He had been working in the steel mill for nearly ten years, but he was still just an ordinary first-level fitter. Sometimes she even felt that her husband had some problems with his brain, otherwise, with more than ten years of experience as a worker, he should be at least a third or fourth-level fitter.

It was like jumping from one fire pit to another. Xu Erni was quite helpless about her miserable fate. But now she couldn't change anything. She could only sigh and follow the man wherever he went. Jia Dongxu secretly stood at the door and looked outside, watching the situation at He Yuzhu's house.

In He Yuzhu's home, Qin's mother was eating with her daughter and son-in-law. She had never dared to think about the life she was living now. Her husband and son, together with the help of her son-in-law, could earn 30 or 40 yuan a month. She could also take care of her daughter's children. It was an ideal life.

So Qin's mother was so grateful to the people of the old He family. A few days ago, she made a pair of shoes and a sweater for He Yushui, which made He Yushui very happy. This sister-in-law of her daughter was also very kind-hearted, which made Qin's mother even happier. He rushed to do the housework of the He family and served He Yuzhu and his sister comfortably, which made the brother and sister very happy.

He Yushui was very respectful to her brother's mother-in-law. The elders were kind and the younger generations were respectful. What more could a husband ask for in such a day? Mother Qin was complaining about her daughter eating and sleeping like a young lady, which made Qin Huairu blush with shame.

He Yuzhu was on the side trying to smooth things over. The family atmosphere was harmonious. He Yushui said that she would bring Yu Haitang to their home to play in a few days, and He Yuzhu naturally had no objection. He also suggested that his brother cook a few dishes, and He Yuzhu agreed without hesitation.

He Yushui was about to say a few words of thanks when a quick knock on the door sounded. The couple's faces darkened. Who dared to knock on the door in this courtyard? Qin Huairu wiped his mouth and prepared to open the door. He Yuzhu stopped his wife. She wanted to go out and see who dared to stroke the tiger's whiskers.

Knocking on the door is also a matter of etiquette. Unless it is an emergency, it is just a matter of minutes and minutes. If it is an emergency, the other party would have been yelling outside the door. He Yuzhu opened the door with a dark face. It turned out to be the old hag Jia Zhang. Subconsciously frowned and said, "You are not eating at home at night. What do you want to do in our house?"

The most annoying person in this courtyard is Jia Zhang. She is not that old, but she only thinks about enjoying herself and staying fat at home. In this era, people in their fifties and sixties are considered strong laborers. Not to mention this era, even in the last life when people no longer had to worry about food, there were many people in their sixties and seventies working on construction sites.

Jia Zhang's old face showed a smile, and she said, "Is He's eldest nephew eating? Oh, how nice. Unlike our family, the food at home is almost gone, and the children are crying with hunger!" He Yuzhu didn't want to pay attention to Jia Zhang's nonsense, and said with a dark face, "Are you okay? If you are okay, just say you are okay. If you are not okay, get out of here."

He Yuzhu was puzzled, wondering what the old woman was thinking. Jia Zhang smiled and said, "Well, Zhuzi, you also know that our Jia family's living conditions are not good. Can you help me and give up one of your family's pillars? Then our family will be better off."

He Yuzhu scratched his ears and asked subconsciously, "What did you say just now? What do you want our family to give up?" Qin Huairu frowned and walked over. I really don't know what this old lady is thinking. Jia Zhang said in confusion, "The fixed amount, your family of four has a fixed amount, and our old Jia family only has Dongxu. Don't you think this is a waste? Your family of four can't eat it all, how about giving up one?"

Qin Huairu's face couldn't be any darker. This old woman was simply shameless. She snorted coldly and said, "Aunt Zhang, you are really too shameless. You even asked our family to give up one person's quota. You really have a good plan. Your family can't have enough food because of your son's incompetence. What does it have to do with our He family? Get out of here, or I will beat you to death."

The noise at the door not only attracted other residents in the courtyard, but also disturbed He Qingmei who was sleeping in bed. Mother Qin felt very sorry for her granddaughter, so she quickly hugged her granddaughter and comforted her. She saw her daughter and son-in-law quarreling outside, so she handed her granddaughter to He Yushui and said, "Yushui, your brother and sister-in-law are quarreling outside. I have to go out to help. Please help me take care of your niece."

He Yushui nodded quickly. She originally wanted to take her niece out to see the excitement. After all, it was not the first time that her brother and sister-in-law had quarreled with the Jia family. The Jia family had never taken advantage of her brother and sister-in-law, so He Yushui was not worried at all. But she was a big child now, and she knew that such a quarrel was not a good thing for children. She suppressed her excitement and coaxed her little niece in the house.

She loved her little niece very much, and she was also very pretty. Sometimes when her brother and sister-in-law didn't have time, she would help take care of the child. Her brother and sister-in-law naturally didn't treat her badly, and her pocket money increased at a visible rate. As a result, later on, without her brother and sister-in-law asking her, she would take the initiative to take care of her niece.

"Hey, Old Jia, please come up and take a look. Someone is bullying your wife in the courtyard. Take that damn idiot Zhu away. Our Jia family is unwilling to let him help us. You have been so kind to them in vain." Jia Zhang started to perform a spirit-calling show in the courtyard with a hoarse voice, which made He Yuzhu so angry that veins popped out.

He picked up the broom beside him and prepared to deal with this old woman tonight. She had just made trouble in our house a while ago. People who didn't know would think that He Yuzhu was afraid of this old woman. He Yuzhu said with a gloomy face, "I have to teach you a lesson today. Don't think that our He family is easy to bully."

He Yuzhu picked up the broom and wanted to hit Jia Zhang in the face, but was held back by his mother-in-law.
