He Yuzhu looked at the things at home and felt something was wrong.

He had clearly placed ten kilograms of rice and twenty kilograms of flour at home, but more than half of them were missing. Also, one third of the bacon prepared at home was missing.

"Aunt Hou, did my father invite people to drink at noon?"

"No. At noon, it was just me, your father, and Yu Shui and the other four little girls eating at home. No one else. Zhuzi, what's wrong?"

Aren’t you treating someone to a meal?

Could it be that he was robbed?

He Yuzhu turned to look at the window, but found no sign of it being opened. It was winter now, and the windows were all closed tightly to keep out drafts and keep the room warm.

"You guys went out to play?"

Hou Yajie shook her head: "No. Your father was in the house the whole time, so I went to the front yard to chat with Su Juan. What happened?"

The two of them didn't notice that when He Daqing heard their conversation, he broke out in a cold sweat.

He Yuzhu said: "That's not right, our family has much less food."

He Daqing said: "Zhu Zi, you must have remembered it wrongly. I was in the house all day and no one came over."

He Yuzhu looked at He Daqing in confusion, and suddenly saw the sweat on his forehead, and immediately understood.

He did not forget that there was a white lotus in the courtyard who was best at dealing with men.

Within three days of her marriage, she had become familiar with the men in the courtyard. Five days later, the whole alley knew that Jia Dongxu had married a beautiful wife. This wife was hardworking, filial, and willing to serve her mother-in-law.

There is the saying of other people's children and there is the saying of other people's daughters-in-law.

Qin Huairu was the daughter-in-law of other families in the eyes of others. All the families who had married daughters-in-law in the neighborhood compared their own daughters-in-law with Qin Huairu.

He Yuzhu suddenly felt nauseous.

I thought that with Hou Yajie around, He Daqing would behave himself when he returned to the courtyard. But who would have thought that Qin Huairu would take advantage of this.

He also didn't know how far Qin Huairu and He Daqing had progressed, so it was not easy for him to expose the matter.

Once the truth is revealed, Hou Yajie's attitude will be uncertain.

"It seems that we still cannot let He Daqing stay in the Siheyuan."

He Yuzhu pretended to be calm and started cooking. It was done in a short while. He went out to call He Yushui and He Qing to come back for dinner. Suddenly, he smelled the fragrance coming from Jia's house. There was rice and bacon. Although the smell was light, it was definitely there.

After dinner, He Yuzhu found a reason and called He Daqing out.

"Dad, did Qin Huairu take away some of our things?"

He Daqing blushed and lowered his head, "What nonsense are you talking about? I have been in the house the whole time, and no one else has entered our house."

He Yuzhu said coldly: "I just put ten kilograms of rice and twenty kilograms of flour into the house yesterday. I just checked and found that there are only about two kilograms of rice left, only five kilograms of flour, and less bacon.

Since you are watching at home, where are those things?"

He Daqing was a little embarrassed and annoyed: "You didn't eat it."

He Yuzhu said, "Even if I eat, I can't eat that much. I just called Yushui to eat, and I smelled the fragrance of Jia's rice. Do you want me to tell Aunt Hou?"

He Daqing glared at He Yuzhu, trying to scare him away, but it didn't work.

"Yes, I lent it to Qin Huairu. Her family is having a hard time, can't I help her?
I know you don't get along with Lao Yi, but how did Huairu provoke you?"

He Yuzhu couldn't help but taunt her, "Oh, oh, oh, Huairu. You're calling me so intimately. Do you want me to tell Auntie Hou?"

Hou Yajie's deterrent power is still quite strong.

Hearing that He Yuzhu was going to tell Hou Yajie, He Daqing softened: "Don't. There's really nothing between Huairu and me. There are so many people coming and going in the courtyard, there's no way we can have anything.

I just helped her a little when I heard that she was having a hard time, that she was small and didn't have enough to eat.

Don’t let your aunt know. If she knew, she would definitely divorce me, and your master would not forgive me. "

What nonsense.

Qin Huairu still feels pity for him. He Daqing is not a loving person.

Qin Huairu must use some tricks to get the upper hand from him.

The New Year was coming soon, and He Yuzhu didn't want to let this kind of thing bother him, so he confronted He Daqing directly: "Well, I don't care. I think you should go back to Tianjin with my aunt Hou. You got into trouble with the White Widow last time, and you still haven't learned your lesson."

He Daqing was not happy. He had given Qin Huairu so many things, and he only collected some interest, but he hadn't really put his gun into battle yet.

It's such a pity to let go of such a beautiful young woman.

"I'll just stay in BJ for a few days. You don't have to chase me away."

He Yuzhu said: "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Don't you feel disgusted? Qin Huairu has been flirting with men everywhere since she entered the courtyard, including Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Xu Fugui, and even Xu Damao, who was not yet an adult.

I am not discussing this with you, I am informing you. Leave now, or I will tell the master."

He Daqing snorted, turned around and went home.

He Yuzhu had no intention of apologizing and followed him home.

Hou Yajie felt something was wrong and said, "Did you two have a fight? Zhuzi, what did your father do again? Tell me and I'll teach him a lesson."

He Yuzhu couldn't say anything about such an embarrassing thing.

Hou Yajie didn't feel comfortable asking He Yuzhu, so she followed him into the house to find He Daqing.

He Yuzhu ignored them and talked to the two girls, He Yushui and He Qing.

He Yushui leaned on top of He Yuzhu and asked in a low voice, "Brother, do you still have that chocolate? I haven't eaten it yet, can you give us a few pieces?"

"Little greedy cat, if you want to eat, don't push it onto your sister."

He Yushui said dissatisfiedly: "It's just that my sister wants to eat. Just come with us!"

He Yuzhu said with a smile: "Wait, I will go to the bedroom to get it for you."

"We'll go with you." He Yushui pulled He Qing and followed behind He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu pretended to take out a few chocolates from his bag: "You can eat them, but do you want to do your brother a favor?"

"What help do you need?" He Yushui grabbed He Yuzhu's hand and tried to snatch the chocolate away.

He Yuzhu told the two to keep an eye on the things in the house and make sure they weren't stolen.

He Yushui was very familiar with this. After being taught by He Yuzhu, He Yushui knew very well that the deaf old lady in the backyard and the Jia family in the middle yard were always trying to steal food from the family.

He Yushui agreed, and He Yuzhu felt much more relieved.

Then the next day, He Yushui faithfully carried out the task assigned by He Yuzhu.

She no longer went to the front yard to play, but instead read picture books at home with her friends.

If they didn't go out to play, Hou Yajie would naturally not go out. If Hou Yajie was at home, Qin Huairu would not be able to come in.

It was no use for her to win Hou Yajie's sympathy by pretending to be pitiful.

Everything in this house belongs to He Yuzhu, and Hou Yajie has no right to make the decision.

After being warned by He Yuzhu, He Daqing did not dare to make a decision.

Qin Huairu could only return disappointed.

When He Yuzhu came back from get off work, he was very satisfied after listening to He Yushui's story. As a reward, He Yuzhu took out the fried chicken legs and chicken wings from the Chinese New Year as a reward.

He Yushui squinted her eyes excitedly and pulled He Qing into the house. This was a habit cultivated by He Yuzhu. When there was something delicious, he had to hide and eat it without letting others know.

Hou Yajie noticed that the relationship between He Yuzhu and He Daqing had been a little bad since yesterday. She initially thought it was her problem, but when she saw He Yuzhu's attitude towards He Qing, she felt that was not the case.

She went to ask He Daqing, but He Daqing refused to say anything.

How could He Daqing dare to tell Hou Yajie about that? He was worried that He Yuzhu would say it out of impulse. (End of this chapter)
