Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Although Jia Zhang likes to make trouble, she is not ignorant of reason. She knows the truth of what Qin Jingru said, so she pretends to say:

"Hey! For the sake of our relationship, I'll give in and just give me two-thirds of the betrothal money."

When Qin Jingru heard the shameless words of this old man, she cursed Jia Zhang in her heart, but said with embarrassment on her face:

"Two-thirds is too much. How about you and my parents each take half of the betrothal gift?"

Jia Zhang said firmly, "No, it must be two-thirds."

Qin Jingru pondered for a while, then said:

"Aunt, how about this? In our village, we usually ask for a ten-yuan gift for marrying off a daughter, but Xu Damao is a city dweller after all, so an extra five yuan wouldn't be too much, right?"

"Regarding the betrothal money, you and my sister should go talk to Xu Damao. Apart from the fifteen yuan from my parents, the rest is all yours. How much you can take depends on your ability."

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang's eyes lit up and she said loudly:

"A word is settled!"

The reason why Jia Zhang was so happy was that she was sure that Xu Damao could at least pay 50 yuan for the betrothal gift. 50 minus 15, she could get 35 yuan for free. How could she not be happy?

Qin Jingru said with an unhappy face: "Aunt, can you tell me your solution now?"

Jia Zhang smiled and shook her head, "You haven't agreed to my second condition yet?"

Qin Jingru said angrily: "I don't have a job. If I give you five yuan a month, isn't that asking too much?"

Jia Zhang smiled faintly and said, "You don't have a job, but Xu Damao does?"

Qin Jingru said angrily, "Xu Damao has a job, but why would he let me keep his salary?"

"If you can find a way for me to take charge of the family finances after we get married, I can give you five dollars a month."

The reason why Qin Jingru agreed to Jia Zhang's unreasonable request was because she was prepared to go back on her word. As long as he and Xu Damao tore up their marriage certificate, who would care about this shameless mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?

Jia Zhang smiled and said, "No problem!"

Qin Jingru said angrily: "Aunt, I have promised you everything now, so you can at least tell me the solution, right?"

Jia Zhang smiled: "Of course..."

Qin Huairu interrupted, "Mother-in-law, don't tell Qin Jingru the solution yet. You must make her write a letter of guarantee, otherwise she will regret it."

Qin Jingru's heart tightened, but she pretended to be angry and said:

"Qin Huairu, I'm your sister, how dare you not trust me?"

Qin Huairu sneered: "Qin Jingru, I know you too well. I know exactly what you are thinking. Do you think I dare to trust you?"

Jia Zhang smiled and said, "Huairu, don't worry. There's no need for Qin Jingru to write a letter of guarantee, because my method will make her dare not go back on her word. If she dares to go back on her word, I will make her suffer ten times more than she already has."

Qin Jingru said with a surprised look on her face, "What's your trick?"

Jia Zhang said with a smile on her face: "The method is very simple, fake pregnancy."

"Fake pregnancy?" The Qin sisters exclaimed in surprise.

Jia Zhang said with a smug look on her face, "Yes, it's a fake pregnancy. Xu Damao has been childless for many years and is almost going crazy wanting a child. If you just say you're pregnant, he'll definitely marry you right away."

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up when she heard this, because this method was indeed feasible, and Qin Jingru did not dare to go back on the conditions she had agreed to them before.

As long as she dared to go back on her word, she would immediately report the matter to Xu Damao. With Xu Damao's temper, he would not only beat Qin Jingru half to death, but also kick her out of the house.

Qin Jingru was overjoyed when she heard this, but then she became worried.

"Aunt, Xu Damao is not a fool. How can I make him believe that I'm pregnant?"

"Besides, I'm not pregnant at all. It will be exposed sooner or later."

Jia Zhang said confidently, "Since I proposed this method, there must be a corresponding supporting plan."

"The way to make Xu Damao believe that you are pregnant is very simple. Just go to the hospital and get a pregnancy test report."

Qin Jingru said anxiously: "But I don't know the doctor in the hospital!"

Jia Zhang smiled calmly: "You don't know him, but your sister does!"

"Huai Ru, you often bought painkillers for me before. You know that Dr. Wu. Ask her to find a way to get a fake pregnancy test report. Shouldn't that be a problem?"

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "As long as we give Dr. Wu a little money, she will be happy to provide us with a fake pregnancy test report."

Jia Zhang smiled and nodded: "As for your second question, it is easier to solve. After you marry Xu Damao, just get pregnant with Xu Damao's child as soon as possible."

"If you really aren't pregnant, just pretend to fall and claim you miscarried."

Qin Jingru was overjoyed when she heard this and praised:

"Aunt, you are really cunning... No, you are really scheming..."

Jia Zhang warned: "Qin Jingru, don't be too happy too soon. If you dare to go back on your promise to me, you will definitely not be able to bear the consequences."

Although Qin Jingru was furious in her heart, she had to smile and said confidently:

"Aunt, don't worry. I, Qin Jingru, am committed to my word. I will never go back on my word."

Jia Zhang smiled and said, "Qin Jingru, I hope you can keep your promise, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Huai Ru, there's no time to lose. Go find Dr. Wu and get the pregnancy test form!"

"Okay, I'll go find Dr. Wu now."

After she finished speaking, Qin Huairu happily went out. Although she failed to use Qin Jingru to suck He Yuzhu's blood, she was able to suck Xu Damao's blood by a twist of fate.

Although Xu Damao's blood is not as much as He Yuzhu's, nor as thick as He Yuzhu's, it is better than nothing, right?

An hour later, Qin Huairu came back with a fake pregnancy test report.

Qin Jingru saw the pregnancy test report and said excitedly, "Sister, shall we go to Xu Damao's house?"

Hearing this, Qin Huairu lightly scolded him, "Qin Jingru, are you stupid? If you rush into it like this, it will only make Xu Damao look down on you even more."

"After you get married, you will have no status at home."

"I'll go negotiate terms with Xu Damao first, and then have him come invite you personally. You have to show your attitude so that you can take the leading role in the family from now on."

Qin Jingru looked at Qin Huairu with suspicion and said hesitantly:

"Sister, is this not a good idea?"

Qin Huairu said coldly, "What's not good? Do you want to marry Xu Damao and be ordered around by him, working like a slave for him?"

"Xu Damao is almost going crazy wanting a child. You should use the child as an excuse to gain a position in the family in the future."

"If you don't fight for it now, after you marry Xu Damao, you'll still be at his mercy."

"Qin Jingru, you don't have to doubt my intentions. Our interests are aligned now. Only when you are well can I be well. I will not harm you."

Qin Jingru said timidly, "Sister, I'm still a little worried. After all, I don't have a baby in my belly, so I'm a little lacking in confidence."

Qin Huairu glared and asked, "Qin Jingru, do you still want to marry Xu Damao?"

Qin Jingru said without hesitation: "I want to get married!"

"If you want to marry me, stand up!"

"Yes, I must stand up."
