Siheyuan: Sending my younger brother to the countryside to raise pigs
Chapter 143: Battle of wits between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
Qin Huairu put on an apron and started cooking. She kept her head down and said nothing, resisting silently.
Jia Zhang just couldn't stand Qin Huairu's behavior. It was like a punch on cotton, leaving her with nowhere to vent her resentment.
"I'm talking to you, are you deaf? Tell me, where have you been after get off work for so long? Did you go out to eat without telling us?"
Jia Zhang raised her voice, and the fat on her face trembled constantly, obviously she was very mean.
He stood up and walked quickly to Qin Huairu, leaned close to her, and sniffed hard with his nose.
Qin Huairu felt both panicked and disgusted.
She didn't cheat.
Just because you don’t steal food with your mouth doesn’t mean you don’t steal food elsewhere.
She was worried that her mother-in-law would notice something was wrong, so she quickly hid back.
"Mom, what are you doing? I stole whatever I ate. Don't you know what good things there are at home? You are not so unfair to me. If you are worried, just tie me to your belt."
Jia Zhang did not smell any other odor, but after living with her daughter-in-law for so many years, she could tell at a glance that she was guilty.
Something!
Now you are still hiding the truth from me, doesn't that just show that this is shameful?
"Humph, just because there is none at home doesn't mean there are none among the men outside."
Jia Zhang's eyes moved over Qin Huairu like a scanner, and when she accidentally discovered the mud marks on her body, she immediately felt like she had found something useful and was ready to turn the tables.
"Where did the mud marks on your body come from?"
Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat.
Of course she knew where the mud mark came from. She thought she had just rubbed it clean, but she didn't expect Jia Zhang to be so sharp-eyed.
"Mud seal? What mud seal?"
She could only pretend not to know and looked behind her, then suddenly realized and said, "Oh, I accidentally fell in the alley just now."
Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu, "Why do I not believe it?"
Jia Zhang understood Qin Huairu, and Qin Huairu also understood Jia Zhang.
She knew that the more she explained, the less her mother-in-law would believe her, so she decided to back down.
Qin Huairu sighed, stared at Jia Zhang for a few seconds with a disappointed expression, and said indifferently: "Whatever you say, it's true. Anyway, you don't believe anything I say. I want to ask you, if I really get along with another man, what can you do to me?"
I have to support the family by myself. If I really want to be with another man, my mother-in-law will have to bear it.
Qin Huairu also knew why her mother-in-law was always so aggressive.
She felt insecure and was worried that if he didn't want her or the child, their family of four would not be able to survive.
Sure enough, Jia Zhang is a person who appears to be powerful but is actually weak. When you are weak, she will be strong, and when you are strong, she will be weak.
Jia Zhang's momentum faded at once, but she was unwilling to give up. She hesitated for a long time and said, "Look at what you are saying. How could I not trust you? I just care about you."
Seeing that Qin Huairu didn't say anything, Jia Zhang seemed to be really afraid that Qin Huairu would leave home and run away with another man.
She asked worriedly, "Is what you just said true? Are you really with another man? I'm telling you, you can't do anything to let my son down. Otherwise, I'll go to his portrait and talk to him and ask him to come see you tonight."
Qin Huairu couldn't help but shudder, looking at Jia Zhang with dissatisfaction, "Can you not say such scary things? Even if he comes to me, I have something to say. I help him raise his mother and children, and let him enjoy his life down there alone, what else does he want?"
"How dare you say that, as if the child is not yours."
Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu unwillingly, returned to the stool beside her, took the vegetable basin next to her and started picking vegetables.
He pinched the vegetable stems with his fingers fiercely, venting his inner dissatisfaction.
Jia Zhang was still worried, so after a while she asked again, "What were you doing just now?"
This time he adopted a gentler tone.
Qin Huairu did not say anything more, "I went to ask Yan Jiecheng something."
It turned out that he was going to meet Yan Laokou's eldest son.
Could it be that she is having an affair with Yan Laokou's eldest son?
It's not a loss, but if the two of them are really together, they must give all their wages to me for safekeeping.
"So he's the man you had out there? You took him down?"
Qin Huairu smiled bitterly, "I would like to, but they just don't think highly of me."
"Look down on him? Why should he look down on him? A divorced man really thinks he is a nobody. You are so good, but he can't see it. He is really blind."
I have to say that Jia Zhang's expression changes so quickly, it's almost as fast as the face-changing in Sichuan Opera. She was scolding Qin Huairu just now, but now she is united in hatred of the enemy.
"What did you ask him?"
Qin Huairu did not hide it, "Liu Lan, you know about it, right?"
Jia Zhang: "Your co-worker?"
"Yes. Just a few days ago, she was suddenly transferred to the cafeteria. I want to ask Yan Jiecheng what happened."
"Transferred to the cafeteria? Don't you two work together? Why was she transferred to the cafeteria while you are still in the workshop? Did you not work seriously and annoy your boss?"
Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu fiercely.
What a great opportunity, that's the cafeteria.
It’s because Sha Zhu works in the canteen that he can bring food home every night.
If Qin Huairu could also be transferred to the cafeteria, they wouldn't have to wait anxiously for Sha Zhu's meals every day.
Eaters have short mouths.
She now couldn't even raise her head in front of Sha Zhu.
Qin Huairu was extremely panicked.
But I didn't dare tell my mother-in-law the truth. If I let her know, she would not be able to live a peaceful life for a long time.
"No, how could I possibly annoy my boss? I don't even see him normally. I heard from Yan Jiecheng that they were randomly selected based on their years of service."
Jia Zhang believed it.
With Qin Huairu's soft personality, she didn't believe that she could offend her leader, so she just thought it was bad luck. But it didn't stop her from cursing and venting her frustration.
"Your leader is really blind. What a bullshit arrangement. Why can't he transfer both of them? Transfer one and keep one. It's really unpleasant."
"You too, you can't even seize such a good opportunity. You're really useless. If you can make yourself familiar to your boss, won't he remember you when the time comes?"
Jia Zhang cursed at Qin Huairu, only in this way could she soothe her unwilling heart.
Qin Huairu did not argue, but just cooked quietly, as if she and Jia Zhang were in two different worlds.
After living with Jia Zhang for so many years, she has developed a unique ability. No matter how harshly Jia Zhang scolds her, none of it can get to her heart.
I don’t know how long it took, but Jia Zhang was tired of scolding. In fact, she accepted the reality and uttered a few words dejectedly.
“It’s all fate!”
It's fate, so you have to accept it.
Qin Huairu also felt that this was fate.
She was born to work hard, and life has given her a clear answer.
