Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

"Qin Huairu, what are you still doing here? Go cook. I've been sweeping the streets all day and I'm tired and hungry. Do you want to starve me to death?"

Jia Zhang's lips drooped, her voice was sharp, and her face was full of anger.

Jia Zhang has lived a life of luxury for so many years, but this is the first time she has done such heavy physical work. Now she feels exhausted and has a sore back.

Qin Huairu felt a little gloating in her heart, but she pretended to be distressed and said, "Grandma, take a rest. I'll go cook right away. By the way, when you sweep the streets tomorrow, can you take Banggeng and the others with you?"

Jia Zhang said unhappily, "Isn't tomorrow Sunday? What are you going to do?"

Qin Huairu whispered, "Didn't I tell you just now? Xu Damao and I are going to ruin Sha Zhu's blind date tomorrow."

Jia Zhang said angrily, "No, I don't feel comfortable with you being with that bad guy Xu Damao, I want to follow you too."

Qin Huairu said calmly: "Don't you have to sweep the streets tomorrow?"

Jia Zhang's eyes rolled around and she said excitedly, "Qin Huairu, you go help me sweep the streets tomorrow. Xu Damao and I will go together to ruin Sha Zhu's blind date."

Qin Huairu cursed in her heart when she heard this. This old hag really treated her like a donkey and didn't want to rest for a moment.

"Grandma, you are so old, and you still have to sweep the streets. I feel so sorry for you. I am very willing to do it for you."

"But sweeping the streets is a punishment given to you by the street director. There will definitely be people watching you. If Director Ma knows that you have found someone to replace you, he will definitely increase your punishment." Qin Huairu looked like she was doing this for your own good.

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang's face instantly fell, "You are right, the Street Office did send someone to supervise me..."

Qin Huairu secretly sighed "lucky" in her heart, and then quickly went to the kitchen.

While eating, Banggeng looked at the steamed buns and porridge on the table with a gloomy expression.

Jia Zhang was probably really hungry, so she stuffed the steamed bun into her mouth. Qin Huairu hurriedly gave one to Banggeng, Xiaodang and Huaihua each. She was afraid that if she was too slow, Xiaodang and Huaihua would not even get a bun.

At this time, a strong smell of fish wafted in.

The tempting aroma stimulated the taste buds of the Jia family. Jia Zhang took a few deep breaths, her Adam's apple moving involuntarily, and she looked drooling.

"Whose pickled fish is this? It smells so good!"

Bang Geng said excitedly, "Grandma, the aroma is coming from Sha Zhu's house. I want to eat pickled fish."

Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu, "Qin Huairu, what are you still doing sitting here? Didn't you hear that Banggeng wanted to eat pickled fish? Go get the biggest pot in our house and bring one back."

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes. "Do you think that with our current bad relationship with Zhuzi, she will give us fish?"

Jia Zhang said arrogantly: "Why don't you give it to Shazhu? Banggeng is still growing, and he won't die if he eats a few less pieces..."

Bang Geng looked at Qin Huairu with tears in his eyes, "Mom, I want to eat pickled fish!"

Qin Huairu persuaded him gently: "Bang Geng, be obedient. When mom gets her salary, I will buy you fish!"

"No, I want to eat pickled fish now..."

She dropped the chopsticks and fell to the ground, crying and wailing, her movements and postures were exactly the same as Jia Zhang's.

Jia Zhang roared: "Qin Huairu, look at what you have done to Bang Geng, why don't you go and get the fish..."

Qin Huairu stood up helplessly, "Then I can only go and give it a try!"

Jia Zhang said viciously: "Why are you trying? You are not allowed to come back if you don't get the fish..."

Qin Huairu frowned when she heard this, picked up a large tin basin and went out.

He Yuzhu's home.

He Yuzhu was eating pickled fish and drinking wine, feeling indescribably comfortable.

He did not bring fish to the deaf old lady tonight because he was very dissatisfied that the deaf old lady helped Yi Zhonghai out of trouble.

"Bang bang..."

"Who is it?"

"Zhu Zi, I'm your sister Qin, please open the door, I have something to tell you!"

He Yuzhu was furious. "Widow Qin, are you going to stop? Haven't I made it clear enough? I don't want to have anything to do with your family anymore. What on earth do you want to do by pestering me like this?"

"Wow...Zhu Zi, please have mercy on my family and give me some fish. Bang Geng is still growing and hasn't had any meat for three days!"

"Wow, it's all my fault as a mother. I can't even afford to buy a meal of meat, and my three children have to suffer with me."

"Poor Xiaodang and Huaihua, they are so young but lack food and clothing, and can only eat steamed bread and pickles every day."

"If the children are malnourished and don't grow tall, I won't be able to face Dongxu even if I die!"

Qin Huairu saw that she had been howling for a long time but there was no movement in the house. She was very angry and kept cursing.

Qin Huairu's face changed several times. Suddenly, she gritted her teeth, knelt down in front of He Yuzhu's door with a plop, and kowtowed several times.

"Woo woo...Zhu Zi, I kowtow to you, just give me some fish meat!"

"Zhu Zi, if you don't want to give up the fish meat, you can give them some soup. The soup is nutritious and can help the three children to replenish their bodies."

The noise in the yard had already attracted the attention of other residents.

"This Qin Huairu has lost her dignity just for a bite of food!"

"Qin Huairu doesn't even have the face she needs anymore. She has thrown all her dignity out the window!"

"Yes, Sha Zhu has already made it clear that he doesn't want to have anything to do with her anymore, but Qin Huairu is still pestering her!"

"Qin Huairu's meatballs are so precious. They can't stand not eating meat for three days. My child hasn't eaten meat for a month, but he's still alive and well!"

"This is normal, after all, Sha Zhu used to bring meat to her family every day!"

"Shazhu is so heartless! Qin Huairu knelt down and kowtowed, but Shazhu didn't even open the door!"

"You can't blame Sha Zhu for being heartless. If I were facing such a shameless person, I wouldn't dare to open the door, because even if I give it to her this time, she will come back to ask for it next time!"

"If Qin Huairu continues like this, no one in this courtyard will dare to eat meat in the future. As soon as you eat meat, she will kneel in front of your door and ask for meat. Who can stand this?"

He Yuzhu, who was inside the house, was extremely annoyed by the noise outside the door. He stood up suddenly, picked up the kitchen's vegetable washing water, and opened the door...

When Qin Huairu saw He Yuzhu opening the door, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes, but the next second a basin of water was poured at her.

"what…"

Qin Huairu was frightened and quickly stood up. She looked at He Yuzhu with a ferocious face and said hysterically, "Silly Zhu, if you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. Why are you throwing water at me?"

He Yuzhu's eyes were cold, without a trace of warmth, "Because you are too dirty, I will do you a favor and wash it for you."

"Qin Huairu, do you think I, He Yuzhu, am kindhearted and easy to bully? You provoke me again and again. Do you really think I have no temper?"

"Qin Huairu, I'm warning you, if you come to harass me again, I'll beat you to death. If you don't believe me, you can try it!"
