Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Qin Huairu said in a low voice, "Yang Cuihua, don't talk nonsense. I just want to help Master Li with a small favor because we are neighbors."

Wang Shufen sneered, "Qin Huairu, you are a thousand-year-old fox, why are you playing Liao Zhai for us? Who in this courtyard doesn't know your little tricks?"

Yang Ruihua sneered, "Qin Huairu, I don't know if you are really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. You know that everyone in this courtyard knows what kind of person you are, but you still want to seduce the men in the courtyard. You are really asking for trouble."

Sun Jinfeng sneered, "Perhaps she is too confident about her appearance, thinking that even if everyone knows what kind of person she is, they can't resist her charm, right?"

Yang Cuihua said sarcastically, "Qin Huairu, do you really think you are such a beautiful woman that all men should crawl at your feet?"

"You, Qin Huairu, are not the only woman in this world. Don't take yourself too seriously."

Qin Huairu was so embarrassed by everyone's criticism that she had to run home in shame.

As soon as Qin Huairu returned home, Jia Zhang complained:

"Qin Huairu, can't you just be more quiet?"

"Everyone was already very dissatisfied with our family. Now that you've messed around, everyone is even more dissatisfied with our family. Do you still want to live in this compound?"

Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang with cold eyes and said sternly:

"Jia Zhang, do you really want to be beaten again?"

Jia Zhang was frightened by Qin Huairu's resentful eyes and stammered:

"Forget it, I didn't say anything!"

Qin Huairu did not calm down because of Jia Zhang's surrender, but roared loudly:

"Jia Zhang, you old bitch, anyone in this world can say anything about me, but you are not qualified to say anything about me."

"If it weren't for you, an old hag, interfering, I would have remarried after Jia Dongxu's death. I wouldn't be in disgrace and hated by everyone like I am now!"

"Do you really think that I am born a cheapskate and willing to shamelessly seduce men? I am doing this for the sake of a better life for our family. Didn't you see that Xiaodang and Huaihua have lost weight?"

Jia Zhang looked at the hideous and hysterical Qin Huairu, and couldn't help shrinking her neck and whispered to comfort her:

"Huai Ru, I know you've worked hard these years. When Xiao Dang and Huai Hua grow up, you'll have an easy time."

Qin Huairu said coldly: "With our current conditions, it is still unknown whether Xiaodang and Huaihua can grow up."

Jia Zhang persuaded again: "Huai Ru, no one is rich now. With your salary plus the money I earn from making matchboxes, as long as you save a little, you can make a living."

Qin Huairu said disdainfully: "Stop talking about your matchbox. Others can paste thousands of matchboxes a week, but you can't even paste a hundred in a week."

Jia Zhang blushed for a rare moment and whispered, "Huai Ru, I will work hard to make matchboxes in the future. As long as we work together, we can keep this family going."

Qin Huairu said with a sullen face: "I can't hold on any longer. You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are if you don't manage the household."

"You little brat is eating me to death. My family needs money everywhere now. My salary of twenty yuan is not enough. Can I not find a man to share the household expenses with me?"

"I have no objection to you looking for a man, but you can't look for one in the courtyard. Are those old ladies in the courtyard guarding us like thieves?"

"Why didn't you tell me when I first hooked up with Li Debiao? What's the point of telling me now?"

……

weekend.

He Yuzhu stayed at Xu Huizhen's house all day, playing with his son, and only returned to the courtyard after dinner with his lunch box.

He Yuzhu came to the deaf old lady's house and found that He Yushui was there too.

He Yushui complained: "Brother, why did you come back just now?"

He Yuzhu said coldly: "Whether I come back or when I come back is none of your business!"

He Yushui said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, how can you talk like that? I am your sister!"

He Yuzhu said with disgust: "I don't have an ungrateful sister like you."

He Yushui was so angry that she stamped her feet and said with a slightly crying voice: "Old lady, look at my brother!"

The deaf old lady said with a smile: "Zhu Zi, it's not easy for Yu Shui to come back once, so don't be angry with her."

He Yuzhu's expression did not change at all, and he said stiffly: "Tell me, why did you come back again?"

"If you still come to ask for money, you can get out now."

He Yushui said angrily: "Brother, I'm not here to ask you for money. I came back to Beijing to attend Yu Haitang's wedding."

"By the way, Yu Haitang also asked about you. She said she invited you and asked why you didn't go to her wedding?"

He Yuzhu said expressionlessly: "Don't mention that woman who despises the poor and loves the rich in front of me."

He Yushui smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, it's been so long, are you still angry with Yu Haitang?"

He Yuzhu said disdainfully: "What right does she have to make me angry? I just don't want to have too much involvement with a woman of bad character!"

"Yu Haitang also said that he wanted to treat you to a meal to make amends..."

"Let her go!"

"Brother, I heard from Yu Haitang that you were promoted to deputy director of the logistics department?"

"So what?"

"Brother, you are awesome! By the way, where did you and sister-in-law go today? I went to sister-in-law's house to look for you this afternoon, but the nanny said that neither you nor sister-in-law were there."

He Yuzhu's expression froze, and he pretended to be impatient and said, "Are you okay? If not, I'm going home to sleep."

He Yushui said anxiously: "Something's going on, something's going on, my boyfriend wants to come visit you..."

He Yuzhu said indifferently: "You should get married and get the marriage certificate. Don't come to visit me. I don't have time."

Hearing this, He Yushui said with tears in her eyes: "Brother, you can't do this to me. You are my only relative now. You can't just ignore such a big thing as my marriage."

He Yuzhu said indifferently: "Who said that I am your only relative now? He Daqing is not dead yet?"

"He Daqing is your father. If you want to get married, you should go to him and ask him to buy you a dowry. As your brother, I have no obligation to help you arrange your wedding."

"He Daqing abandoned me when I was little. Now I don't even remember what he looks like. How can I find him? He actually abandoned me. I don't want to see him again in my life."

"Since you don't want to go find He Daqing, you're just picking on me, right? Do you really think I, He Yuzhu, am easy to bully?"

"Brother, how could I miss you so much?"

"If I don't think of you this way, then how should I think of you? You are an ungrateful person who always uses people to move forward and never to move backward."

"Brother, why do you always call me an ungrateful person? How am I an ungrateful person?"

"How can you be so ungrateful? I have raised you up, have you ever bought me a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes?"

"Still, my eldest son is almost one year old. Have you, as his aunt, ever visited him?"
