Siheyuan, I became a commercial tycoon in the culinary world

Chapter 14: The various calculations in the courtyard

Seeing this, Jia Dongxu immediately stood in front of Qin Huairu and said, "Mom, what are you going to do? Huairu is right. We just had a fight and now you're asking for a chicken. How can you possibly get one..."

When Jia Zhang heard that Jia Dongxu was helping Qin Huairu, she burst into tears again, "What a sin I have committed! My husband died young, and I raised a son who got married and forgot about his mother..."

"Mom, please don't say that. Huairu just got married not long ago. How can she be so sorry to you? In your situation today, if you ask her to go to the He family to beg for chicken, isn't that asking for trouble?

When I get my salary this month, I'll buy a chicken and ask Huairu to cook it for you, okay?"

Jia Dongxu had no choice but to comfort his mother.

After hearing this, Jia Zhang finally calmed down. Seeing Qin Huairu standing at the table at a loss, she shouted at her, "You are dead! It has been so long and you haven't brought the food to me yet. Do you want to starve me to death?"

"Mom, I'll go right away..." Qin Huairu finally reacted, answered, and went to the kitchen to bring up the steamed buns and cabbage.

When Jia Zhang saw the steamed buns, she started to grumble again, "Steamed buns again, cabbages, when will this kind of life end?"

After saying that, he picked up the steamed bun helplessly and started biting it.

The Jia family here has finally calmed down, but another farce is being staged in the Liu Haizhong family over there.

Liu Haizhong's three sons, Liu Guangqi, Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian, all smelled the fragrance coming from He Yuzhu's house.

When the second aunt brought the porridge and steamed buns to the table, the eldest son Liu Guangqi said, "Why are there porridge and steamed buns again? Mom and Dad, what kind of life are we living?

Look at the He family. He Daqing not only bought a bicycle for Sha Zhu, but also ate fish yesterday and chicken today. Those days were so beautiful!

And what kind of life are we living?"

The second son Liu Guangfu also said, "Mom and Dad, Sha Zhu's family eats fish and chicken, I want to eat too..."

The youngest son, Liu Guangfu, threw down his chopsticks and said, "I don't want to eat porridge or steamed buns. I want to eat chicken or fish..."

When Liu Haizhong saw his three sons making such a fuss, he immediately stood up, picked up a bench and threw it at his eldest son Liu Guangqi, "You think this porridge and steamed buns are not tasty, then go buy some chicken and meat for yourselves..."

"Oh, Dad, are you crazy..." Liu Guangqi jumped away in a hurry, "I'm not complaining about the porridge and steamed buns, I just think the He family is good, look at He Yuzhu, he's awesome now.

He Daqing's clothes and food are better than mine. I even bought him a bicycle...

Look at me again, what am I wearing and what am I eating? How dare you say that..."

Liu Haizhong became even more angry when he heard this, "Eat, eat, eat, what else can you do besides eating?

Don't you see how busy I am all day? It's enough to have something to eat and not be hungry. If you still want to eat chicken and fish, you can dream on!"

After saying that, the bench fell heavily on Liu Guangqi's back. Liu Guangqi cried out "Ouch" and fell to the ground. "Dad, you are trying to murder your own son!"

Liu Haizhong stepped on Liu Guangqi's chest and glared at him fiercely, "You bastard, you dare to talk back to me, I will beat you to death today!"

"Ah, help, I don't want to die..." Liu Guangqi cried in pain.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were so frightened when they saw their eldest brother being beaten by their father that they were speechless.

The second aunt rushed forward when she saw something was wrong and grabbed Liu Zhonghai, "Old man, are you really murdering your own son? Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs."

Liu Zhonghai pushed the second aunt away and continued to kick Liu Guangqi who was lying on the ground wailing.

The second aunt was pushed to the ground. She climbed up and pulled Liu Haizhong, cursing, "Old man, you are really crazy. How can you be so cruel to hit your own son? I feel sorry for you even if you don't."

"I feel so sorry. You've spoiled him. If you don't beat him now, how can he take you and me seriously in the future..." After saying that, he was ready to take action.

The second aunt stood in front of Liu Guangqi and said, "Old man, if you hit Guangqi again today, I will never let you go..."

"You old fool, either you kill me now or don't blame me for being rude to you later..."

Liu Guangqi was kicked to the ground, but he refused to admit defeat and continued shouting.

"You dare to threaten me? I'll beat you into a pig's head..." Liu Zhonghai said, and was about to hit Liu Guangqi again.

The second aunt yelled anxiously, "Guangqi, he is your father, just say less. Guangtian, Guangfu, come here quickly to stop your father..."

Hearing the second aunt's cry, Guangtian and Guangfu came over reluctantly to stop Liu Haizhong. Seeing this, Liu Guangqi got up from the ground, looked at Liu Haizhong with resentment, and hid in the inner room.

"Old man, you have no conscience, how could you treat your own son like this?

Aren’t you afraid that it will get out and people will say you are cruel and ruthless…”

The second aunt yelled at Liu Zhonghai.

Liu Haizhong glanced at the second aunt and said, "You are the one who spoiled me. You still want to eat chicken and fish. You don't even look at the situation at home..."

"You..." Second Aunt was so angry that she couldn't speak. She could only turn to Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, "Guangtian, Guangfu, eat, eat, and after you finish eating, give your brother two steamed buns."

Guangtian and Guangfu then sat down obediently to eat and dared not say anything more. They did not want to be beaten by Liu Haizhong like their brother.

……

In the central courtyard, the light from Yi Zhonghai's house shone through the half-open window lattice, casting a warm yellow light that formed a sharp contrast with the coolness of the night.

With a hint of anxiety and confusion in her voice, the aunt brought up the sensitive topic again.

"Zhong Hai, why are you giving money to Jia Dongxu again? ... How can we live if you keep helping Jia Dongxu like this? Do you really believe that he can be our support and take care of us in our old age?

Especially under the influence of that Jia Zhang?"

There was both blame and worry in her tone, and her hands, which were full of traces of time, were tightly clasped together, revealing her inner struggle.

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai frowned, and a hint of helplessness and bitterness flashed in his eyes.

"Hey! What can I do? If you could give me a boy or a girl, why would I be like this?

Although Jia Dongxu has Jia Zhangshi, he is my apprentice and cannot do without my help, so there is still some hope for us to take care of him in our old age...

As for Jia Zhang, she is indeed a problem, but now we only have Jia Dongxu as the candidate for old-age care?"

After hearing this, the aunt's eyes turned red and her voice choked with sobs.

"Zhong Hai, instead of doing this, we might as well adopt a child..."

"Adopting a child is too difficult, you should just give up on this idea for now!

After you finish your meal, quickly send a bowl of rice to the deaf old lady. We are childless in this courtyard, so we have to set an example for everyone, right?"
