Siheyuan: I live next door to Xu Damao, my last name is Cao

Now Sha Zhu remained silent and lowered his head to eat his dumplings.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, please stop talking. Let's be quiet and spend this New Year peacefully."

Yi Zhonghai also sighed. They had agreed to celebrate the New Year together, and now it actually happened.

It was just spent in prison.

Jia Zhang snorted coldly. Sooner or later, she would have to get back at that Sha Zhu for calling her a pig-head.

"Mom, these are dumplings made by an auntie. You should have some too."

Qin Huairu ignored the quarrel between the two and handed the lunch box to Jia Zhang.

As soon as Jia Zhang sat down, she said with some dissatisfaction: "Why do you want me to eat other people's dumplings on New Year's Day? Why don't you make some for me?"

She is being unreasonable, but she still has to find fault with it.

Qin Huairu had just started cooking at home. She had just finished wrapping the dumplings and had not used up some of the stuffing when she was called out by an old lady. She was in a hurry and naturally had no time to make the dumplings.

"Just eat the dumplings. It's good enough to have dumplings. Why are you so picky? My sister didn't make dumplings for me either."

Qin Huairu didn't say anything, and Sha Zhu couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

This Jia Zhang family has really a lot of things to do.

Auntie couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Old Zhang, don't blame Huairu. I was the one who called Huairu over. She was at home cooking when I called her out. I also wanted you to have a better New Year here and eat dumplings made at home. Don't worry about whose family made them. Didn't we agree to celebrate the New Year together?"

After much persuasion, Jia Zhang was finally able to calm down.

However, He Yushui looked at her brother angrily. She was really convinced.

"Brother, you said I didn't make dumplings for you. We only have that little flour left at home, and you didn't buy meat or anything else. How can I make dumplings for you? It's been a long time since you paid me."

He Yushui said angrily.

This Sha Zhu was taken to the police station without buying anything. All the change at home was stolen by Bang Geng. It became a problem for her to have food, let alone send dumplings to Sha Zhu.

Only then did Sha Zhu realize that his sister had no money.

But he didn't have much money on him at this time. Sha Zhu had only saved a thousand yuan in total. He paid three hundred yuan to Xu Fugui, and he had also paid out several hundred yuan at the steel mill before. Now he didn't have much left.

"I'm a little tight on money lately, and you have all the money the school gives you. How are you going to get by without me?"

He Yushui snorted coldly: "You hit someone when you're a little tight on money. It would be better to pay it back. Give it all to Huabei. You gave the change to Banggeng and they didn't even want to give it to me. So I'm not your biological sister, right?"

Sha Zhu was immediately choked, and tried to find some excuse to justify himself, otherwise he would be in the wrong.

And saying this in front of Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu felt a little embarrassed.

"Yushui, what are you talking about? I raised you from childhood, I don't owe you much, I just didn't give you much money because I was short of money recently."

"Isn't that all the money left by our father? I haven't asked you for money since I went to high school. During the Chinese New Year, there was nothing at home to eat, and you still complained that I didn't bring you dumplings."

After He Yushui said these words, he finally felt better.

"Okay, Zhuzi, stop talking. You are really being a bit unreasonable. You have to take good care of your own sister. Otherwise, what is going on?"

"Yushui, you should stop talking too much. Your brother is in the police station right now. He's in a bad mood and he was talking in anger. Don't argue with him."

Yi Zhonghai sighed. Why are there so many things to do as the New Year approaches?

It just sounds bad.

Yi Zhonghai gave Aunt Yi a look, signaling her to take Qin Huairu and He Yushui away quickly.

It's not enough to give me a headache just by staying here and arguing all the time.

An old lady called He Yushui and Qin Huairu and took them out of the police station.

the other side.

Cao Wei leisurely rode his bicycle to Lou Xiaoe's house.

Lou Xiao'e returned home early to spend the last Spring Festival with her parents.

When Lou Xiao'e saw Cao Wei riding a bicycle towards her, she was also a little surprised.

It was almost time for dinner, but Cao Wei hadn't arrived yet. She thought Cao Wei was not coming.

I didn't expect that he would come here at dinner time.

"Cao Wei, I thought you weren't coming."

"How could that be? Since I promised you, I must come over. It's just that something happened in the courtyard just now, so I came a little late."

Then the two men walked into the house and talked about what happened in the courtyard.

"This kid Bang Geng is so abominable. He starts stealing things at such a young age."

Hearing that Banggeng had actually stolen things from Cao Wei's house, Lou Xiao'e was also filled with indignation.

Then after hearing Cao Wei and Qin Huairu making fun of each other, Lou Xiaoe smiled again.

"It seems that Qin Huairu is an okay mother, but his grandmother is too mean."

"I also heard that Jia Zhang often beat and scolded Qin Huairu. She treated this daughter-in-law very badly. Qin Huairu is also quite pitiful, marrying into this family."

Lou Xiao'e herself is a kind-hearted person. Since she came to the steel rolling mill and became an officer in the factory women's federation, she has developed a greater sense of responsibility. So she told Cao Wei that she wanted to help Qin Huairu get out of this difficult situation.

Cao Wei must have agreed with this.

Of course, it’s not appropriate now, we need a suitable opportunity.

The two people walked into the house, each holding a hand full of fruit.

When Lou Xiao'e's mother Tan Yali saw this, she hurried over and said in a slightly reproachful tone.

"Kid, just come if you want to. Why bring anything with you? It's good to have such a thoughtful thought."

"Auntie, this is just a small token of my appreciation. It's just some fruit, not worth much."

Cao Wei said with a smile.

Tan Yali greeted, "Okay, give me the food, and go upstairs to have some tea with your uncle. Xiao'e and I will prepare dinner soon, and I'll call you to eat dumplings later."

"Auntie, you don't have to be polite to me, and you don't have to treat me as a guest. I'll make dumplings with you."

Originally, the family of three was making dumplings, so Cao Wei was naturally embarrassed to ask Lou Bancheng to take him upstairs for tea.

Everyone else is busy, what's the point of you just sitting there doing nothing?

Cao Wei winked at Lou Xiao'e, and Lou Xiao'e immediately understood what Cao Wei meant.

"Yes, Mom, you don't have to be polite to Cao Wei, let's make dumplings together."

Seeing this, Tan Yali no longer insisted, smiled and nodded, and said, "Okay, it's just right that there are more people, so we can wrap it faster."

As she spoke, she took the gift brought by Cao Wei and put it aside.

Lou Xiao'e pulled Cao Wei into the kitchen.

The kitchen was filled with a warm atmosphere. Lou Xiao'e was skillfully rolling out the dumpling wrappers, while Lou Bancheng was helping to make dumplings. Seeing Cao Wei coming in, Lou Bancheng smiled and greeted him, and continued to focus on the work in his hands.
