Chapter 166 Midnight Date
On the silent and deserted night, a slight noise suddenly occurred in the middle courtyard.

The voice was very soft, and it was obvious that the person was very careful.

In the house on the right, after the door opened a gap of about thirty centimeters, a dark shadow came out from inside.

This might be the first time the black shadow had done something like this, so his movements were a little flustered. He looked around for a while, and only felt relieved when he saw that no one came out.

"Meow."

"Meow."

"Meow."

After three intermittent cat calls, the black shadow hid in the corner and waited.

At the same time, Qin Huairu, who heard the cat's meow, quietly took Jia Dongxu's arm off the mountain peak, and then quietly climbed up.

After a while, Qin Huairu came out of the house, stood at the door and looked across.

Yi Zhonghai walked out from the darkness, scaring Qin Huairu so much that she almost screamed.

"Brother Yi, what are you doing?"

"Shh." Yi Zhonghai said carefully, "Don't let anyone hear us. Let's find a private place to talk."

Qin Huairu looked around and said, "The yard is so empty, how can there be any secret place?"

Yi Zhonghai glanced around and said, "Let's go to the cellar."

"The cellar was locked by my mother-in-law."

"It's okay. Can a lock stop me? Let's go."

A lock really can't stop Yi Zhonghai.

I don't know where he found a piece of wire from, but he inserted it into the keyhole, shook it left and right, and the lock opened.

Yi Zhonghai took out a flashlight from his arms and walked in with Qin Huairu. After going down, he turned off the flashlight because he was worried that someone would come out and see the light.

Qin Huairu came up and asked, "Brother Yi, why did you lie to me?"

Yi Zhonghai felt a little guilty. He knew he couldn't see anything in the dark, and he didn't dare to look Qin Huairu in the eye.

"Huai Ru, you have to believe me. I didn't lie to you."

Qin Huairu was a little angry and said in a loud voice: "You haven't lied to me yet. You told me that the Jia family is well-off and with your help, they live a comfortable life.

But in reality, the second day after I got married, I could hardly eat.

Tell me how you want me to live in the days ahead."

"Keep your voice down." Worried about being heard by others, Yi Zhonghai reached out his hand in panic, trying to stop Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu slapped the hand he extended to her away.

Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to explain: "This is all an accident. I can swear to God that I really didn't lie to you.

Dongxu's salary is over 300,000 yuan, which is high in the steel mill and few people can compare to it."

"Since his salary is high, then tell me why the Jia family can't afford to eat? And the wedding banquet, how can you hold it like this?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't understand why this happened.

"Huai Ru, don't be angry. Although there was a little accident at the wedding, it was just accidental. In fact, according to my thinking, things are not like this."

"Then tell me, what happened?" Qin Huairu asked back.

Yi Zhonghai naturally told about the donation and put the blame on He Yuzhu.

"If it weren't for the fool, your wedding would have been a grand one. It's all because of that fool who didn't listen."

Qin Huairu frowned.

She thought that this was probably the reason why He Yuzhu's attitude towards her was average.

Fortunately, He Yuzhu was just an apprentice in a hotel and had no financial prospects, otherwise she would have to have a good talk with Yi Zhonghai.

"You said you were the boss of the courtyard and everyone listened to you. Could it be that you can't even handle a fool?"

Yi Zhonghai blushed. When he was bragging, he thought he could get a certificate of merit from the Military Control Commission, and with it, he could regain his glory in the Siheyuan. Who would have thought that even though he performed so well, Wang Huijun would not give him any reward.

"This is an accident. Don't worry, I will become the boss of the courtyard sooner or later."

Sooner or later?

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes.

Given the Jia family’s current situation, can they wait until sooner or later?
The problem we are facing now is that of food.

There was no winter vegetable supply at home, and Jia Dongxu didn't have a penny in his pocket.

What are you going to eat tomorrow morning?
"I don't care when you become a master. You have to find a way to solve the problem of food for our family.

The Jia family now has no money and no food.

If you don’t help me solve this problem, I will divorce Jia Dongxu and go back to the countryside to farm.”

Yi Zhonghai quickly reached out and grabbed Qin Huairu: "Don't be impulsive. I will take Dongxu with me to borrow some money from Lao Liu tomorrow."

"Borrow money? Dongxu has borrowed more than a hundred dollars, and he won't be able to pay it back in the next year, and you still let him borrow money? How can you live by borrowing money?"

Yi Zhonghai said helplessly: "I have no other choice but to borrow money."

Qin Huairu once again shook off Yi Zhonghai's hand: "Aren't you the master chef of the steel factory? You must have saved a lot of money over the years! Since you are Dongxu's master, why don't you help Dongxu?"

Being cheated by the White Widow was such a shameful thing that Yi Zhonghai was naturally embarrassed to talk about it. He naturally pushed the responsibility onto Miao Cuilan.

"Don't think that I earn a lot, but I also spend a lot. Cuilan is in poor health and often needs to take medicine. I also helped a lot of people. Dongxu became my disciple, and I spent several hundred yuan on him. I really have no money left."

Even people who were familiar with Yi Zhonghai were deceived by these words, so Qin Huairu naturally couldn't see through it.

"So you still don't want to divorce her?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "Cui Lan can't have children. I want to divorce her. How will she live in the future? I am not a heartless person."

Qin Huairu also knew that since she was married to Jia Dongxu, she could not marry Yi Zhonghai. Forcing Yi Zhonghai to divorce would only benefit other women.

Rather than giving it to others for their own good, it would be better to keep it for her as a blood bag.

But the problem of the Jia family’s food still needs to be solved.

"Can't you hold a donation event? Our family can't make ends meet anymore. Please hold a donation event for us."

Borrowed money needs to be repaid, but donations do not need to be repaid.

Qin Huairu naturally knew how to make the best deal.

Yi Zhonghai wanted to do this, but he knew it was unlikely. He Yuzhu's words that day made the people in the hospital distrust him. Forcing the donation would only make everyone hate him more.

If he dared to do that, his popularity, which had just surpassed Liu Haizhong, would be surpassed by him again.

"Not yet. Shazhu is a petty person who has been eyeing your house. He will definitely destroy it.

Wait a minute, I'll take care of him when I become a big boss."

Qin Huairu said, "Wait until you become a master? But you have to tell me when you can become a master. You can't let me wait for you for ten or eight years, right? If I don't have to wait, I would have starved to death long ago."

Yi Zhonghai said: "I also want to become a big boss as soon as possible. But the last election was ruined by Sha Zhu. Plus, Lao Liu doesn't get along with me, so I really have no choice."

Under Qin Huairu's questioning, Yi Zhonghai had to tell everyone about the election that day.

Qin Huairu frowned: "You are making too much trouble. Since the deaf old lady has connections, why don't you just go to the leader of the Military Control Commission and appoint you as the eldest uncle? Why do you need to have three uncles?"

This tactic of checks and balances cannot be told to Qin Huairu.

He united with Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to not only check Xu Fugui, but also check the Jia family, lest the Jia family would not provide for him in his old age.

"We joined forces with Lao Liu and Lao Yan, but were still destroyed by Sha Zhu and Xu Fugui. If we don't join forces, it will be even more impossible. Let me think of a solution."

Qin Huairu was somewhat skeptical of Yi Zhonghai's ability, so she began to think of a solution. Finally, she came up with a plan to act first and report later: "Don't worry about whether the hospital recognizes it or not, we can just admit it first, isn't it?

You ask the deaf old lady to come forward and persuade Uncle Liu and Uncle Yan. Let's first decide on the title of "Uncle".
