Chapter 197 Inviting Sister Qin to Dinner

At around nine o'clock the next morning, Qin Huairu went to Sha Zhu's house. This was the task her husband gave her last night! Before leaving, He Daqing gave Sha Zhu a large sum of money. Sha Zhu was a small and easy-to-deceive person, so he could give him 100,000 yuan for helping him clean up the house.

"Hello, Dongxu asked me to help you and your sister clean up the house." Qin Huairu knocked on the open door and said to Sha Zhu who came out of the inner room.

"Please come in! You know something happened at my house. I'm not very good at housework. I'm really sorry to bother you today. Can I call you Sister Qin?"

When Sha Zhu saw Qin Huairu really coming to his house, he couldn't help but invite her in. He didn't acknowledge her as his sister-in-law, and he should call her Sister Qin.

This was also the first time Qin Huairu came to Sha Zhu's house. She looked around and saw that the one and a half main rooms here were tall and large, more than ten square meters larger than the west wing of her house.

Seeing her looking up at her house, Sha Zhu introduced it proudly, "This is the master bedroom of the entire courtyard. It's the best room. It's tall and well-ventilated. It's warm in winter and cool in summer."

"Do you have any dirty laundry? I'll soak it in the sink first."

No matter how good the house is, it belongs to someone else! Qin Huairu didn't want to listen to his bragging, so she didn't respond to him and asked him for work directly.

"There are no dirty clothes! Sister Qin, just help me clean the room."

Knowing that Qin Huairu was coming, Sha Zhu had already taken the dirty clothes to the east wing and hid them. Qin Huairu went to the public pool to help him wash clothes, but could that be considered being alone together?

Qin Huairu rolled up her sleeves, filled a basin with water and began to wipe the furniture for Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu sat in the main room, staring at her back intently.

This sister Qin is just showing her pregnancy, but it doesn't ruin her exquisite curves at all. It's a pity that she is not the hostess of this house! Sha Zhu was thinking wildly.

Qin Huairu could feel a burning gaze on her, but she had long been accustomed to it. When she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, whether in the fields at the village entrance or in the market, the men looked at her in the same way.

She knew that her looks attracted men, so she didn't want to waste her life with a peasant. She wanted to marry someone in the city, and she had the capital advantage.

In order to bring the two closer together, Sha Zhu had already prepared everything. He asked his sister to stay in the east ear room and not come out to disturb him!

He saw that it was almost time, so he went to the kitchen to show off his cooking skills in front of Sister Qin. When Qin Huairu cleaned his house, Sha Zhu had already served three dishes, a soup and a big white steamed bun on the table.

"Sister Qin, you've worked hard today. To express my gratitude, please have a simple meal with me." Sha Zhu quickly invited her to the table and asked her to have a meal with him.

Looking at the two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, one soup and white steamed buns on the table, Qin Huairu couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She hadn't eaten meat for a long time and was craving for it.

"I still have to go back to cook for my mother-in-law." Qin Huairu stared at the dining table and said hesitantly.

"You eat first, and then you can take some home after you finish eating, isn't that enough?" Sha Zhu invited him strongly. He had never eaten alone with a young person of the opposite sex before.

After hearing Sha Zhu's arrangement, Qin Huairu sat down. Sha Zhu was very attentive at the dinner table: "Sister Qin, try my cooking. See if it suits your taste!"

"Zhu Zi, I didn't expect you to have such great cooking skills. This is the most delicious dish I have ever eaten."

Qin Huairu's flattery made Sha Zhu feel like he was floating in the air. He wanted to spread all his best dishes in front of Sister Qin.

After the meal, the two quickly became familiar with each other as Sha Zhu had hoped. When Qin Huairu packed up the leftover steamed buns on the table, Sha Zhu looked at the empty plates on the table and suddenly slapped his head.

Damn it! I completely forgot about my sister Yu Shui.

As the year was coming to an end, the school had already started the winter vacation. With her friends accompanying her at home every day, He Yushui became happy again. The two stayed together during the day, and Jingyi became He Yushui's support.

Jingyi's writing has now reached a bottleneck. When writing about Lou Xiao'e's marriage, Jingyi has no idea where to start. If she writes according to the facts, Xu Damao will have no chance in the future!

Lou Zhenhua would never allow his daughter to be unhappy in her marriage. In fact, the most suitable person for Lou Xiaoe is Le Mingxuan. Whether in terms of age, family background or personality, the two are very compatible.

Jingyi decided to stop writing for a year or two. Anyway, it was still early and Lou Xiao'e would only be twelve after the Chinese New Year. She still had to think carefully about whether she should give Xu Damao a chance.

On New Year's Eve, the deaf old lady and Sha Zhu's brother and sister spent New Year's Eve at Yi Zhonghai's house. This was the result of a discussion between the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai!

Facing Sha Zhu's indifference, Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to ask the deaf old lady for advice. So the deaf old lady asked Sha Zhu to cook at Yi Zhonghai's house on New Year's Eve. The deaf old lady had always loved Sha Zhu since he was a child, so Sha Zhu had to listen to her.

This incident completely angered the mother and son of the Jia Zhang family! Ever since Jia Dongxu became their apprentice, the Jia and Yi families have celebrated the New Year together. Now, without saying a word, he actually abandoned his apprentice's family and found the He brothers and sisters again.

Jia Zhang insulted the He brothers and sisters viciously. Because they had always spent the New Year at Yi Zhonghai's house before, they had no preparations this year. Other people's New Year's dinner tables were full of delicious dishes, but the Jia family only had boiled cabbage.

Jia Zhang also wanted to go to Yi Zhonghai's house to make a scene! According to her personality, she would at least go to the east wing and bring back two delicious dishes. But with the deaf old lady in charge at Yi Zhonghai's house, she had no intention of making a scene at all. In the entire courtyard, the person she feared the most was the deaf old lady.

"Mom, do you think my master wants to change the person who will take care of him in his old age?" Jia Dongxu mustered up the courage to ask Jia Zhang.

"Are you saying that Yi Zhonghai is trying to win over the He brothers and sisters now, hoping to provide for them in their old age? Why? He doesn't look for his own disciples, but looks for two outsiders. Wait a minute, I'll go find him!"

Jia Zhang heard what her son said and jumped three feet high. Yi Zhonghai was a fat sheep with a rich family background, and originally this was reserved for his son. Now, she never expected that the He brothers and sisters would show up halfway.

"It's no use for you to make a fuss! We have to think of a way to prevent my master and Sha Zhu from getting too close. It would be best if these two families never had anything to do with each other again!" Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth and gave advice to his mother Jia Zhang.

"Then I will talk to your master's wife tomorrow and ask Yi Zhonghai to stop paying attention to Sha Zhu." Jia Zhang said casually without even thinking.

"What you're saying won't work at all. My master has the final say at home, and my master's wife has to listen to him in everything. Once my master makes a decision, my master's wife has no say at all." Jia Dongxu immediately rejected his mother's proposal.

"Then I'll think about it carefully! I'll give you the answer in two days."

Seeing the noisy sounds coming from the east wing across the courtyard, Jia Zhang's eyes were blazing with hatred. She racked her brains to come up with a vicious plan that could alienate the two families.

On the first day of the first lunar month, a jeep arrived at the gate of No. 95 courtyard house, and a distinguished figure got out of it. He came to the back room in the backyard with a gift box and wished a happy new year to the deaf old lady.

"Commander Xiao Yang! Why are you in Sijiu City?" The deaf old lady asked affectionately as she saw the newcomer, holding his hand.

"I have retired from the army and now work in the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry in Sijiu City. I have settled down here, and I will come to see you whenever I have time in the future." The visitor also replied to her kindly.

Yi Zhonghai, who got the news, hurried over from the middle courtyard. He looked at this person who looked like a big leader and speculated about his relationship with the old lady.

Isn't this old lady a five-guarantee household? How come she has a relative who looks like a big leader?
