Siheyuan: Get the system at the beginning

Qin Huairu's tears started to flow again. Although her eyes hurt, she knew that not being able to cry was better than being beaten.

"What else can mom do? From now on, we mothers will rely on each other to raise the child, and I will have done my best for Dongxu."

Mother Jia stared at her daughter-in-law. She was not satisfied with her from the beginning. Not only did she dislike her because she was a rural person without food, but the main reason was that her face, with her eyebrows and eyes full of spring, showed that she was not a decent person.

But she couldn't persuade her son and had to agree. That's why she usually keeps a close eye on her daughter-in-law. As long as she is still there, she will never let her son be cuckolded.

But now that his son is gone, it is even a question whether this daughter-in-law can raise the two children without remarrying, let alone provide for him in his old age and give him a clock.

"Qin Huairu, go kneel down in front of your man."

The sudden words made Qin Huairu a little confused. She didn't understand what he meant.

However, Mrs. Jia has always been domineering. Seeing that the other party did not move, she directly pulled the person to her son. She pushed Qin Huairu hard and forced her to kneel on the ground. She used a lot of force, so Qin Huairu felt a piercing pain in her knees.

"Hey~ Mom, just tell me what you want to do. Why are you pushing me? It hurts so much."

Qin Huairu rubbed her knees, not daring to use force with her hands, just feeling the pain...

"I want you to swear to my son, Qin Huairu, swear to your dead man that from now on you are a member of my Jia family and a ghost of my Jia family. From now on, you will guard this home for Jia Dongxu, raise the children, and never remarry. Otherwise, I will be struck by lightning and never reincarnated."

Mrs. Jia spoke word by word, and coupled with the already gloomy atmosphere, Qin Huairu felt as if her heart had fallen into an ice cellar, with chills creeping all over her body, without a trace of warmth.

Qin Huairu opened her mouth several times, but no sound came out of her throat.

"How can you say such nice things? Who can't say nice things? Didn't you say you would take care of the child and raise him? Then swear! As long as you swear, I, as your mother-in-law, will treat you as my own daughter. From now on, we will live a good life together, raise Banggeng, send him to school, and marry him off."

Mrs. Jia's voice rang in Qin Huairu's ears again, and every word was like a stone hitting Qin Huairu's heart.

The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law are superstitious people. Even though the street office is doing ideological education every day and conveying the ideas issued from above, it still hasn't changed their deep-rooted feudal ideas.

But no matter how unwilling Qin Huairu was to swear, she was still afraid when she saw Jia Dongxu's portrait illuminated by the flickering candlelight and smelled the bloody smell of corpse in the air.

"I, Qin Huairu, swear that I will stay at the Jia family, raise the child, and take care of my mother-in-law. If I violate this order, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."

After Qin Huairu finished swearing, her whole body seemed to be drained of all strength and collapsed to the ground. Mrs. Jia didn't care about her. Anyway, she had sworn an oath, and her worries were relieved a little. Although she knew that for some people, swearing would not work, but at least in the short term, Qin Huairu didn't dare to abandon the Jia family and marry someone else. As for the future, she decided to teach her grandson well and let him deal with this daughter-in-law, so that she would not dare to give up her son.

Mrs. Jia made up her mind and then went back to her room to rest. After all, she was old and even if she wanted to stay with her son for the whole night, she couldn't do it.

If she passed away but still asked Qin Huairu to keep vigil for her son, Qin Huairu would not dare to say a word or refute after hearing it. After all, this was the rule. Otherwise, her son would have to keep vigil. Her son was still so young, and if he had to kneel and keep vigil for the whole night, she, as a mother, would be the one who would feel heartbroken.

"What do you think we should do about the Jia family? We brought the people back yesterday, so they should be sent out tomorrow morning. But they have orphans and a widow, and there is no one to take care of them."

Liu Haizhong couldn't wait to run to Yi Zhonghai's house before daybreak. The door was already open and before Zhou Xiaolian could react, the other party had already finished talking in a flurry.

"It's Second Uncle! Didn't Old Yi faint yesterday? I see he hasn't recovered yet. Otherwise, Second Uncle, you can take care of it. I'll talk to Old Yi when he gets better."

"Alas! Who made me the second uncle in the yard? It's normal that Old Yi can't accept Dongxu's sudden incident. Leave the affairs of the yard to me. Let him have a good rest."

After Liu Haizhong finished speaking, his mouth was almost split to his ears. Zhou Xiaolian saw it, but she just expressed disdain in her heart, agreed verbally, and closed the door.

Liu Haizhong didn't care. He turned around, changed his expression, and walked towards Jia's house with a compassionate look.

Jia Dongxu's funeral was also successfully completed under the leadership of the second uncle and with the help of the young people in the courtyard.

As for Yi Zhonghai, he only showed up for a moment during the funeral and then hid back in the house.

Everyone thought that Yi Zhonghai could not accept the sudden misfortune of his apprentice. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was because there was no one left to take care of him in his old age. However, since it was none of his business, he would just grumble about it to his significant other in bed.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Jia family got along harmoniously for a period of time, and they cooperated very well. After all, Jia Dongxu was gone, and the job he left behind needed someone to inherit. In addition, the person died during working hours, so how to compensate? How much compensation should be paid? These were all problems.

With Yi Zhonghai's deliberate matchmaking, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Jia family had a big fuss in the factory director's office, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop. In the end, the factory agreed to let Qin Huairu take over Jia Dongxu's official position first, and used 450 yuan as compensation, which of course also included funeral expenses.

Finally, Qin Huairu got what she wanted and became a regular worker in the steel mill. If Yi Zhonghai hadn't planned this, Qin Huairu, who had no skills and was a woman, would most likely have been assigned to the kitchen.

However, based on his understanding of Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai felt that she was hardworking, filial to her mother-in-law, so he thought of taking Qin Huairu as his apprentice and asking her to help him more in the future. In addition, he and Jia Dongxu had a good relationship as master and apprentice in the past, and Qin Huairu would definitely take care of him when he was old. So out of selfish motives, he used his connections to arrange Qin Huairu directly to his workshop and took her as his apprentice.

Although Qin Huairu had been married for many years and her husband worked in a steel rolling mill, she really didn't know much about the factory's affairs. She thought Yi Zhonghai was doing this for the good of her family, so she agreed and recognized Yi Zhonghai as her master the next day and became a worker in the workshop.
