This time, as expected, at about the same time, Sha Zhu was seen hurriedly walking into the central courtyard.

But what was strange today was that Sha Zhu was not holding a net bag containing a lunch box, but a large cloth bag.

Seeing that the cloth bag was bulging and heavy, Qin Huairu quickly asked:

"Silly, what's wrong?

Why are you so anxious today?

What happened to you walking so hurriedly? "

Sha Zhu naturally also saw Qin Huairu.

"Didn't Xiao Xia catch a cold yesterday? She felt better this morning, but I don't know how she is now. I want to go check it out."

Qin Huairu smiled.

"Xiao Xia is fine now. I've already gone to see her. She's playing with her brothers and sisters in Old Lady Long's house in the backyard.

I'm doing the laundry right now, so go home and see if you have any dirty clothes, or if the children's clothes are dirty, and take them out so I can wash them for you all at once. It's just a matter of convenience."

Qin Huairu's enthusiasm was too much for Sha Zhu to resist.

"No, the dirty clothes I just washed yesterday, how could they get dirty so quickly? Besides, I can't always trouble you, sister-in-law."

Qin Huairu rubbed the clothes in her hands and very naturally interrupted Sha Zhu's embarrassed words.

"Shazhu, you are too polite, there is no need to say such things between our two families.

Besides, I watched your children grow up, so I will definitely help you wherever I can, it's just a matter of convenience.

What are you holding in your hand?

The big bag is bulging, and it looks like it is filled with good stuff.

Why didn't you bring your lunch box today? I heard that the canteen is having a special meal today."

Hearing Qin Huairu's question, Sha Zhu also knew what Qin Huairu meant, but Qin Huairu's three children had no shortage of food to eat today.

Banggeng'er and his two younger sisters had a big meal. The three children ate a whole old hen.

The things in my hand cannot be shared with the Jia family. Besides, they are not my things. They were provided by Zhang Jialiang. The two of them are going to drink together in the evening.

"Yes, there is a small kitchen in the canteen today. I originally brought a lunch box with meat and vegetables, but I gave it to Zhang Jialiang.

Liangzi said his son Xiaojiu wanted to eat the food I cooked, so I gave it to him. "

When Qin Huairu heard that the meat and vegetables that Sha Zhu brought back from the canteen were gone, and that the whole lunch box full of delicious dishes was given to Zhang Jialiang, she was heartbroken.

Shazhu is such a big fool. How can he give it to others if he doesn’t eat it himself?

Even though your family doesn't eat it, I still treasure it.

Qin Huairu had gotten used to it. She habitually treated the meat and vegetables that Sha Zhu brought back as her own. Now that she gave them to others, she was of course very uncomfortable and unhappy.

Also, in the courtyard, the Jia family and the Zhang family are the most at odds with each other. The two families have no contact at all, so it would be better to give the money to anyone else than to the Zhang family.

Sha Zhu is also aware of the relationship between the Jia family and the Zhang family, but he still does this. Is this worthy of her taking such good care of their family?

In a hurry, Qin Huairu couldn't help but expressed her dissatisfaction very bluntly.

“How could you do this?

How can I give meat and vegetables to others?

The key is that it was returned to the Zhang family!

To be honest, Jie Bai treats you well, and the Zhang family has no shortage of meat to eat.

Zhang Jialiang is good at hunting and his family is the best in the compound. Everyone in his family has a job and earns a lot of money. You have been fooled by Zhang Jialiang."

Sha Zhu was very unhappy after hearing what Qin Huairu said. Qin Huairu was meddling in too many things. What right did she have to interfere in the matter between him and Zhang Jialiang?

It’s really too easy to worry about!

Sha Zhu shook the cloth bag in his hand.

"That can't be possible. We are buddies. Liangzi is not a stingy person. He invited me to drink with him tonight and bought me a chicken. This whole chicken weighs more than 4 kilograms.

Liangzi has some dried mushrooms. We can stew a chicken with mushrooms and fry some peanuts. We will put a few dishes on the table and have a good meal.

I prepared a lot of dishes this time, so that my family can also have a good meal!

I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go see Xiao Xia and then hurry up to cook. Liangzi is waiting for me to drink."

After saying this, Sha Zhu hurried into his house without waiting for Qin Huairu to reply. After putting the chicken down, he went to Old Lady Long's house in the backyard to see Xiao Xia.

Zhang Jialiang walked out of the house, entered the front yard and came to the small kitchen in the west wing. He first took some small dried mushrooms, then thought for a while and took a piece of tofu and a handful of vermicelli.

He planned to ask Sha Zhu to make another stewed dish, cabbage, vermicelli, stewed tofu and some stewed chicken broth. This would also be a good dish, and the portion would be large enough so that both families could have something to eat if they shared it.

Zhang Jialiang came to the middle courtyard carrying his things. As soon as he came in, he saw Qin Huairu sticking out her big butt and rubbing her clothes vigorously. While she was rubbing the clothes hard, she was mumbling something to herself.

Judging from her appearance, she seemed to be a little unhappy and was taking her anger out on her clothes. However, Zhang Jialiang ignored her and went straight to Sha Zhu's house.

"Shazhu, these are dried mushrooms. I see I have some tofu and vermicelli at home. You can make a Chinese cabbage vermicelli stew with tofu. We can share the whole pot of food between our two families."

Sha Zhu was busy chopping chicken. When he saw what Zhang Jialiang was holding, he grinned.

"Okay, this dish is good. It's a big pot of stewed vegetables with cabbage, potatoes, tofu and vermicelli, and a little chicken broth. It's filling and delicious.

I am good at making this dish. I will call you when it is ready."

Zhang Jialiang put down what he was carrying.

"Okay, I'll go back first. You can cook first. I'll wait for the drink."

Sha Zhu nodded while chopping the chicken.

"okay!"

After having a good meal and a few drinks, Xu Damao staggered out of the steel mill and returned to the courtyard.

He felt that he performed very well today and communicated very smoothly with the leaders at the dinner table. His eloquent speech livened up the atmosphere at the table.

Moreover, he was in surprisingly good condition today. He drank a lot of wine, but for the first time ever, he did not get drunk and even received praise from his leaders.

Humming a little tune, Xu Damao walked into the gate, passed the front yard and the middle yard, and came to the door of his own home in the back yard.

Suddenly he discovered that one of the two old hens in the cage at the doorstep seemed to be missing. At first he thought that he was drunk and a little dizzy, so he didn't see clearly.

He rubbed his eyes and put his head closer to the chicken coop to take a closer look. Indeed, he was not mistaken. There was only one old hen left in the chicken coop. The other old hen had disappeared without a trace.

Xu Damao was puzzled. There were clearly two old hens when he went out in the morning, so why was there only one left now?
