Siheyuan: Xu Damao, I want to go to the moon

After Qin Huairu heard about Jia Dongxu's accident, she still asked Xu Damao. Xu Damao did not object, so she decided to come to the Siheyuan.

I have no feelings for Jia Dongxu, let alone for Jia Zhangshi. The Jia family treats me like a maid and a nanny, so it would be strange for me to have any feelings for her.

But Banggeng is her son after all, the flesh and blood of her body. It is true that she is disappointed in Banggeng, but it is impossible to say that Qin Huairu doesn't miss Banggeng at all.

It's like, even though I know he's hopeless, I always fantasize that there's a slight possibility that Banggeng will get better one day?

Although the probability is infinitely close to 0.

So she would come to this yard from time to time, firstly to take care of the eldest wife Lou Xiao'e, and secondly to see Bang Geng.

Xu Damao would not say that he deliberately stopped Qin Huairu from contacting Banggeng, but he had no obligation to care about Banggeng, even for Qin Huairu's sake.

I gave Qin Huairu a new life, a job and a house. If I am still asked to take care of the stick jokes, then what is the difference between me and Sha Zhu in the original drama?

That is absolutely impossible.

It is natural for Qin Huairu to want to control her own son, but it is impossible for you to bring Bang Geng into your life circle.

If it really comes to that, they will just have to go their separate ways, because from the beginning to the end, Xu Damao never looked down on Bang Geng once.

I get annoyed whenever I see that little bastard.

Qin Huairu is a smart person. She knows who gave her everything now, so she won't ask Xu Damao to help her do anything. She just occasionally checks to see if there is hope for Banggeng to improve. Even if he can listen to her words and not learn from Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu will be thankful.

Today Banggeng's father died, Jin Lili is a stepmother and is pregnant, Jia Zhang is the biological grandmother, but she is the most unreliable one.

It can be said that Banggeng is experiencing the most helpless and miserable day right now.

Qin Huairu originally wanted to ask him if he was willing to live with her, as she was really worried about leaving Banggeng with Jia Zhangshi.

But before he could open his mouth, he was scolded by Bang Geng.

Bang Geng stared at Qin Huairu with red eyes, as if Qin Huairu was the culprit who caused his father's death.

In Banggeng's cognition, or under the influence of Jia Zhang's instigation, he believed that if Qin Huairu had not divorced his father, he would not have been hungry, his father would not have found a stepmother for him, and his father would not have been distracted from work because his stepmother did not take good care of the family, which led to the accident.

The culprit of all this is Qin Huairu. If she had continued to stay in the Jia family and work like a slave, Jia Dongxu would not have died today.

How can I explain this logic? It is very Jia family-like, and everyone owes the Jia family.

Qin Huairu resisted the urge to get angry and said to Banggeng, "Banggeng, let me ask you, are you willing to live with me and go live with mom?"

"..."

As soon as the words came out, Bang Geng was stunned. Although Jia Zhang had always emphasized to him that he had nothing to do with Qin Huairu anymore, he more or less understood that if he followed Qin Huairu, he could eat meat, while if he followed his own father and grandmother, he would go hungry for nine meals out of three days. His stepmother was neither good nor bad to him, and his food and drink were guaranteed, which was a little better than when Qin Huairu was around, because Jin Lili was not as stingy as Jia Zhang, and she was willing to subsidize the household expenses.

But if you say how good the food is, that’s impossible, people are not stupid.

Jia Zhangshi tried several times to take over Jin Lili's salary, but Jin Lili never agreed. Once, she got angry and they fought. Jia Dongxu was stuck in the middle and it was difficult for him to behave. His male functions were gone, and it was useless for him to speak.

At that time, Banggeng rushed forward to help his grandmother and was rewarded with several big slaps by Jin Lili. However, she was not Qin Huairu and would not indulge Banggeng.

So Banggeng was very afraid of Jin Lili, and Jin Lili never cared about Banggeng's studies, nor would she lecture him. As a result, a strange balance was achieved in the Jia family.

But if I follow Qin Huairu, I will be under his control again.

Would that guy be willing? I am the bully in the class now. It's so hard for no one to control me. Why do I take the initiative to suffer this?

Before Bang Geng could answer, Jia Zhang rushed out of the house impatiently: "Get out!"

"Qin Huairu, get out of here, you idiot!"

Jia Zhang also pushed Qin Huairu, almost knocking her down, then hugged the stick in her arms and cursed at her loudly.

"You don't need to pretend to be a good person. We are from the Jia family. What business do you have as an outsider? You still want to take Bang Geng away? No way!"

"Bang Terrier isn't going anywhere!"

"Bang Geng, we're not going anywhere. Grandma will buy you some meat tonight. We'll make braised pork and give it all to you!"

When Bang Geng heard that there was braised pork, he immediately nodded to Jia Zhang and said, "Okay, grandma, I'm not going anywhere. I won't go with this guy. I want to eat braised pork tonight!"

Qin Huairu sighed and said, well, there’s still no hope.

She knew what kind of person Banggeng would become after following Jia Zhangshi.

So he said hello to his neighbors and left the courtyard.

When going out, I met Jin Lili. They both had their own thoughts, so they just nodded to each other silently as a greeting.

Want Jin Lili to take care of Bang Geng? Qin Huairu also thought it was impossible, so she simply didn't ask for it.

Everyone has his own destiny. As a mother, Qin Huairu tried her best, but Bang Geng was too deeply influenced by Jia Zhang and could not be reversed.

What's more, with Jia Zhang around, it's unrealistic to take Bang Geng away.

The neighbors were all saddened by their family's troubles, but they just watched. In this year, who would care about other people's troubles?

----------------

In the evening, all the men who worked came back. Sha Zhu did not go to Lou's house to cook today. After all, such a big thing happened in the yard.

Everyone had a quick dinner and then waited for the meeting in the central courtyard.

The three elders sat in the middle again. Yi Zhonghai had resumed his status as the eldest uncle. Liu Haizhong was still the second uncle. The Liu family was the best-off in the courtyard except for the Xu family. With Liu Guangqi watching over them, Liu Haizhong did not worry about whether he was the first or second uncle.

Just kidding, he still knows who is more important, the second uncle or the first uncle, compared to the factory director's secretary's father.

As for Yan Bugui, I don't know what connections he had, but he also got his status as the third uncle back. It's also possible that since he hadn't done anything wrong recently, the subdistrict office saw that since Yi Zhonghai's position had been restored, they simply restored Yan Bugui's status as the eldest uncle.

With one more person managing the yard, it is always more convenient for three people to stand together than for two masters to confront each other.

"...Ah, that's what happened. Now I'd like to invite Uncle Yi Zhonghai to speak."

As usual, Liu Haizhong took the lead in exchanging pleasantries for a while, and then left the matter to Yi Zhonghai.

He doesn't want to get involved in the Jia family's affairs.

Yi Zhonghai was forced to attend the meeting by Jia Zhang for the simple reason that you, Yi Zhonghai, are Dongxu's master and godfather.

This man is dead. As his master and godfather, you can't just ignore it, right?

So Yi Zhonghai is in a difficult situation now.

Money cannot be donated. The street office has already stated this.

But we can’t just ignore the Jia family’s affairs. What should we do?
