Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

Qin Huairu said aggrievedly

"Uncle, look at our family's situation, how can we afford the money?"

Jia Zhang's tyranny

"What does it have to do with our Jia family that Xu Damao was beaten by Shazhu? Why should our Jia family pay and I don't? You can do whatever you want, I don't care."

Yi Zhonghai was also angry and said angrily

"Zhu Zi has given your Jia family at least 400 yuan over the past few years. Now I will make the decision for you to pay back 200 yuan, and the debt will be settled."

Jia Zhang yelled

"I don't have any money, I don't have any money"

Yi Zhonghai laughed and said

"Sister-in-law of the Jia family, I am not discussing this with you. I am informing you that today you can either pay the money or let He Daqing go to the police station to sue you. Then I will hold a meeting of the whole hospital to send your family back to the countryside. It's your choice."

Qin Huairu was frightened when she heard this. She was still afraid of Yi Zhonghai. She had seen how Yi Zhonghai had a lot of support in the courtyard over the years. Besides, not every family was like Zhang Renkang, who had connections in the street office, police station, and factory. How could they ignore Yi Zhonghai?

As for Yi Zhonghai, he also had his own thoughts. He had already lost his reputation in the courtyard, the street, and the factory after He Daqing's disturbance last time. This time, he took advantage of Sha Zhu's incident and contributed money and effort for everyone to see. Last time it was just a rumor. He and Sha Zhu had a very good relationship and he ran around for Sha Zhu. How could he possibly embezzle the pension money of Sha Zhu's brothers and sisters? Another plan was to force the Jia family to bleed, so that the Jia family had no choice but to rely on him, and take the opportunity to control the Jia family and devote himself to his own pension plan in the future.

Jia Zhang was also frightened when she heard Yi Zhonghai's threat. She knew better than Qin Huairu how cruel Yi Zhonghai was. He could really do it. Jia Zhang looked at Yi Zhonghai in fear. Yi Zhonghai saw that they were frightened and continued

"I asked you to come here and speak for the sake of Old Jia. I want to leave some room for your Jia family. You guys should take care of yourself."

He Daqing said coldly

"Do you want to take it or not? Just give me the answer."

Qin Huairu saw that there was no way out. If he continued like this, He Daqing and Yi Zhonghai would really be annoyed. He nodded and said

"Let's get it. I'll go back and ask my mom to get it for you."

As he said that, he quickly pulled Jia Zhang out. As soon as he returned to the Jia family, Jia Zhang became arrogant and slapped Qin Huairu on the head and shouted:

"Qin Huairu, you can take it if you want. I have no money. Don't you know the situation in our family?"

Qin Huairu rubbed his head and said aggrievedly

"Mom, didn't you see the situation between the elder and He Daqing? Now that Shazhu is dead, He Daqing will never reason with us. Do you really want to be driven back to the countryside?"

Jia Zhang said viciously

"What will happen to my coffin money? What will happen to my retirement money?"

Qin Huairu sneered and said

"Okay, don't take it. I'll take the child back to the countryside. At worst, I can go farming. I can still have children. If that doesn't work, I'll find a man to marry. It's up to you."

When Jia Zhang heard that Qin Huairu wanted to remarry, she became furious and shouted:

"Qin Huairu, if it weren't for our Jia family, you would not be able to marry into the city, and you would never be able to remarry. If you dare to do anything to let Dongxu down, I will never forgive you."

Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang with disdain and said

"Don't threaten me. You can't do anything about me remarrying. If you have the guts to guard your coffin and live, I will return my job to your Jia family and go back to the countryside."

Seeing Qin Huairu like this, Jia Zhang was also panicked. If Qin Huairu really left, she would not want to go to work. Who would support her then? Jia Zhang groaned and said impatiently

"Okay, okay, I can't control you anymore. If you want to give me money, then give it to me. Qin Huai, if you touch my coffin, you must give me an extra three dollars a month for my retirement."

Qin Huairu said

"I'll give it all to you. You'll be responsible for the food and drink at home from now on. Don't you know how much I spend a month?"

Jia Zhang reluctantly drove Qin Huairu out, closed the door, drew the curtains and covered the room tightly, and devoutly clasped her hands in front of the portrait of Old Jia and muttered:

"Old Jia, please protect us from below. We can't even afford to eat at home."

After muttering a few words, Jia Zhang took down the portrait of Old Jia, broke the small iron sheet from the back, removed the hard board at the back, and took out twenty or thirty colorful bills. She counted out fifty-eight yuan and fifty cents, and then found thirty-two yuan and fifty cents from the portrait of Jia Dongxu. This was the remaining pension money Qin Huairu had handed in in the past two years, and the money behind Jia Dongxu was the money Qin Huairu had given her in November this year. Jia Zhang was greedy and spent fifty cents to buy a few meat buns to eat. Jia Zhang nodded, and then worshiped devoutly in front of the spirit tablets of Old Jia and Jia Dongxu, and found a small cloth bag from Jia Dongxu's urn, counted out ten big black ten bills, which was Jia Dongxu's death compensation, and put the rest in. After she had packed up, she opened the door and called Qin Huairu in.

Jia Zhang said with a cold face

"That's all. Give it to that bastard He Daqing. Take it or leave it. Is there any more?"

Qin Huairu took the money curiously and wondered

"Where did this old man hide his money? She has secretly looked for it several times. She has searched everywhere but found nothing."

Qin Huairu nodded and walked towards Shazhu's house with the money. He handed the money to He Daqing and said

"Uncle He, this is the money Sha Zhu borrowed from our family. From today on, our Jia family doesn't owe you anything. I am your witness."

Yi Zhonghai saw that Jia Zhang had indeed paid and nodded.

"Okay, Zhuzi and the Jia family have settled all debts and no one owes the other anything."

Qin Huairu looked at He Daqing pitifully, feeling so sorry for her. This was two hundred yuan, almost her annual salary.

He Daqing counted the money and found only 191 yuan, but he was too lazy to argue with the Jia family about the 9 yuan, so he nodded and said

"Okay, from now on you won't owe Sha Zhu a penny."

Seeing that they admitted this, Qin Huairu turned around and left. If she didn't leave, she was afraid that she would not be able to resist and ask for the money back.

In the backyard, He Yushui got angrier and angrier after she went back. The Jia family was nothing. They had taken so much from Sha Zhu before, including lunch boxes and borrowed money, and never paid it back. Now Sha Zhu was about to be shot, and they still didn't want to pay it back.

After a while, Yu Li brought Yu Haitang to the courtyard. As soon as she entered the courtyard, Yu Li felt that the atmosphere was not right. When she came into the house, Yu Haitang saw He Yushui's red eyes from crying and asked quickly

"Rainwater, what's wrong with you?"

Then he said arrogantly

"Whoever bullied you, I will go and settle the score with him"

He Yushui stopped Yu Haitang who was about to go to the courtyard to ask, and Yu Li asked

"Yushui, tell me who bullied you."

He Yushui told Sister Yu Li what happened this morning, and Yu Haitang said angrily

"Why is your father like this? How can a father be like this? I'm going to go find him."

He Yushui held Yu Haitang and said

"Forget it, I've actually been mentally prepared for this, so it's fine this way, I'll just follow Brother Renkang."

Yu Li thought to herself, no, I have to move in quickly. There seems to be something wrong with He Yushui. She even moved into Zhang Renkang's house. If something happens between them, where can I go to cry? As a woman, Yu Li's intuition has already sensed the crisis.

Yu Li said

"Let's wait for Renkang to come back in the afternoon. He will probably be back around two or three."

"Your family, ah, this silly Zhu is really a bit stupid"

Yu Li didn't know what to say, but He Yushui smiled and said

"Sister Yu Li, you won't unwelcome me, will you?"

“Does my presence bother you?”

Yu Li thought, nonsense, if Zhang Renkang hadn't adopted you before I got married, I would have let you into the family.

"How could that be? Yu Shui, don't think too much. You and Hai Tang are both my sisters."

He Yushui had already sensed a hint of hostility in Yu Li's eyes. Only Yu Haitang on the side said

“Yushui, what delicious food did my brother-in-law leave for me?”

As he said this, he ran to the kitchen. Ten seconds later, he heard Yu Haitang shouting in the kitchen:

"Yushui, this is the pork rib soup that my brother-in-law made. I have never had pork rib soup before."

He Yushui said to Li with a smile

"Sister Yu Li, please sit down for a while. I'll go heat up the pork rib soup on the stove. My brother left a piece of pork for us to stir-fry at noon. After lunch, let's go out for a walk. My brother left thirty yuan for us."

Yu Li snorted in her heart. This girl is challenging her. You've only known me for a few days and I'm already the boss here. She said with a smile.

"It's okay, Yushui, just go and play with Haitang. I'll cook for you. From now on, it's up to me to decide on my cooking skills."

After saying that, she stood up and went to the kitchen. This little girl wanted to challenge her status as the legitimate wife, but it was impossible. Yu Li took a look in the kitchen. Zhang Renkang had left a lot of pork, about two kilograms. She looked at the peppers and four potatoes in the kitchen and planned to stir-fry peppers and pork and potatoes.
