When Yang Xiaotao came back, Qin Huairu was guarding the faucet in the middle courtyard, rubbing the sheets vigorously.
There was also a bad smell around the pool, and those who wanted to use water not far away were waiting at a distance.
When Yang Xiaotao saw this, he became more determined to get a water pipe, so that he would not have to queue up and save trouble and worry.
When the cart entered the courtyard, everyone saw square pieces of tofu piled up in the basin at the back, and they all marveled.
This tofu ticket is not easy to get. Even the benefits of an eighth-level fitter are only half a catty per month.
Generally, families have to save for a long time, and even go to the state-owned vegetable store to buy something after they have saved enough in a year.
It is still rare to buy a pot like Yang Xiaotao, from all directions.
Qin Huairu worked hard to wash the clothes. On the one hand, she really wanted to wash her clothes, and on the other hand, she wanted to show everyone how good and pitiful she was, so as to arouse everyone's sympathy.
She caught a glimpse of Yang Xiaotao passing by, and the gray-white tofu in the car made her swallow her saliva.
He wanted to say something, but Yang Xiaotao didn't even stop and walked away.
Sad in my heart.
Not far away, Ran Qiuye's surprised voice came, which was even more sour.
She is also a pregnant woman. She washes clothes in cold water on a cold day, but the other party can eat tofu.
The treatment is so different, I can only blame it on my own choice!
"You bitch, eat, eat, eat, I'll eat you to death!"
When Mrs. Jia Zhang walked out of her aunt's house, she naturally saw those tofu cubes and felt bad for others, especially for a bastard like Yang Xiaotao.
Then he saw Qin Huairu and felt even more uncomfortable, "I eat well every day, who are you trying to seduce?"
"If you have no conscience, if you eat alone, your whole family will die."
Just as he was talking, Wang Xiaohu from next door ran over, carrying a sausage in his hand. After a while, he ran home with a cube of tofu.
Just as Jia Zhang was about to yell, she saw the Liu family's daughter-in-law running to Yang Xiaotao's house carrying a cloth bag and not knowing what she was pretending to be. After a while, Ran Qiuye came out and the Liu family's daughter-in-law was holding a sea bowl in her hand.
, saying that it would be sent back later or something.
This is not over yet. I know that Yang Xiaotao has bought a lot of tofu, and there are people in the front and back yards coming to exchange for some. After all, tofu is not something that is usually available to eat, and it is not available in the market.
If Yang Xiaotao can buy it, everyone naturally wants to try it.
When Jia Zhang saw so many people praising Yang Xiaotao's smelly feet, she felt heartbroken.
He snorted coldly and walked quickly home.
Qin Huairu lowered her head to wash clothes, paying no attention to everything around her.
Now, I just want to finish washing it quickly and don’t want to continue to serve as a background here.
At night, the aroma of fried tofu wafts everywhere in the courtyard.
Yang Xiaotao went to great lengths to stir-fry tofu, pan-fry tofu, and even Mapo tofu. A tofu banquet was enough to satisfy Ran Qiuye.
In the Jia family, Banggan looked at the steamed buns on the table, and then at the millet porridge on the side. He crushed the steamed buns into pieces with his mouth, and then stuffed them into his mouth bit by bit.
Qin Huairu felt bitter when she saw Banggeng like this, and then put a piece of pickles into a small bowl.
"Mom, I want to eat tofu too."
Xiao Dang lowered his head and said that he was playing with Xiao Hai in the yard this afternoon. Xiao Hai said that their family would eat tofu tonight, and Xiao Dang remembered it.
"Eat tofu, do you have any tofu to eat?"
Ahem
Mrs. Jia Zhang took a bite of the steamed bun, and her throat felt so tight that she quickly picked up the rice porridge and swallowed it.
"You're a money-losing guy, why should you cry? It's good to have some steamed buns to eat, but what else do you want to do with tofu? Hmph!"
Seeing Xiaodang crying, Qin Huairu quickly comforted her, "Be good, Xiaodang, don't cry if you don't want to."
Jia Dongxu was lying on the bed with the steamed buns in his hands but couldn't eat it.
In the past, even if the family was in need, they could still eat some food.
But now, the wowotou is filled with pickles, which is really hard to eat.
Ahem
Jia Dongxu put the wowotou down, looked at Qin Huairu, opened his mouth for a long time, and finally said helplessly, "Go to Shazhu's house and get the lunch box back."
Qin Huairu was stunned and felt contempt in his heart.
Since the last time I went home, there has been no peace in this house.
Either he scolds someone, or he picks on someone, or he hits someone at every turn.
The whole person became wild and moody.
She also knew that she definitely couldn't accept the reality and felt uncomfortable, so she didn't say much, just worked hard and didn't complain, thinking that it would be fine after this period of time.
But I didn't expect that Jia Dongxu would get worse and worse!
A few days ago, he told her to keep distance from the men in the courtyard, especially Silly Zhu.
She did the same thing in the past few days. Silly Zhu came back with two lunch boxes. He was going to deliver them, but he was scolded by Jia Dongxu and left. Silly Zhu was so angry that he didn't come to the door for the past two days.
But now you have to come to your door again to ask for it, what does this mean?
"Go quickly, don't you see that your eldest grandson is hungry?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang reacted on the side and glanced at Jia Dongxu. Mother and son understood what he meant.
Qin Huairu was even more furious.
Does their family have no money?
Their family is rich, at least they donated more than 100 yuan, and donated 100 yuan to the steel rolling mill. Excluding the hospitalization expenses, it was at least 156 yuan.
If this money is used to improve food and save money, it will be enough for a year.
But their family's money is held by Jia and Zhang.
You don’t pay a penny for your meal, and you still want to eat well?
Dreaming!
Let go of Xiaodang, get up and walk outside the house.
Right now, the only thing left is to take advantage of Silly Zhu.
After Qin Huairu left, Jia Dongxu sneered.
Mrs. Jia Zhang looked at her son with confusion on her face, but Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth and said, "Our family can only eat like this. If the big man wants to eat, so will the idiot."
After hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang's eyes flashed.
When Qin Huairu went out, she didn't know the plans of the two people in the room, but she knew that she went to Shazhu's house so late, and if someone saw her, she would have to gossip behind his back.
Taking a deep breath of air-conditioning, Qin Huairu held her bulging belly and walked towards Shazhu's house.
At this moment, Silly Zhu opened two lunch boxes. A large one contained vegetable soup leaves.
A small one, with vegetables and meat inside, a lot of oil and water, and two steamed buns on the plate on the table.
The reason for this is all due to the strict supervision of the steel rolling mill.
Especially those from the security department, who spend all day sweeping the factory, and are the gatekeepers at the door, checking everyone with their eyes wide open.
The last time Silly Zhu went out of the gate, he was stopped by people from the security department and had to open his lunch box to take a look.
This unwritten rule of the cook packing up leftovers to supplement the family's income has been ignored for many years. Why is it so hard to apply it now?
The angry Shazhu almost took action.
Fortunately, the uncle stopped us, so we didn't make a fuss.
However, that time he gave the food to Liu Lan and ordered leftover soup in his lunch box.
Just like that, the officer from the security department even scolded Silly Zhu by pointing at his nose.
However, Si Zhu is not easy to get along with. When he meets the people in the security department, he will tremble and let them know the consequences of offending the cook.
In the past two days, Shazhu is planning to team up with several chefs from the back kitchen to give these fuckers some high-altitude medicine. Otherwise, who will care about this job if there is no more money in the future?
However, Silly Zhu has become more thoughtful in the past few days. He wears more clothes now. There is food in a small lunch box and vegetable soup in the outside. Just check.
I pinched a piece of fatty pork with my hands, threw it into my mouth, chewed the steamed buns, and hummed a tune leisurely. At this time, if there was a woman talking and rubbing her shoulders, my little life would be very happy.
Silly Zhu was fantasizing in his mind, and then he saw the door being pushed open, and a person he often dreamed about at night walked in.
At first glance, I saw the pair of large lanterns.
"Sister Qin, it's so late, why are you here?"
Silly Zhu didn't get up either, just staring at a pair of lanterns.
Qin Huairu leaned against the door and looked at the lunch box on the table without saying a word.
Silly Zhu followed his gaze and glanced at the lunch box, picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
"Sister Qin, could you please say something, why are you blocking the door so late at night?"
Qin Huairu didn't speak, but Sha Zhu was patient.
He knows very well that the Jia family is having a hard time now.
Especially that damn Yang Xiaotao who made so much tofu that the whole compound smelled of tofu.
Thinking of tofu, Shazhu's eyes became brighter.
In Jia's house, Mrs. Jia Zhang was lying on the window, watching carefully through the light in the room.
If Qin Huairu dares to do anything to disgrace her Jia family, she will rush out immediately.
Silly Zhu waited for Qin Huairu to speak, thinking that he must handle it carefully.
However, the imagined scene where Qin Huairu should keep a low profile and talk nicely to herself did not appear. Qin Huairu actually sighed and looked at Sha Zhu with a determined expression, which made Sha Zhu feel a pain in his heart when he saw it.
"Zhuzi, even you are not willing to help sister?"
"I thought you were the only one in this courtyard who had a good mind and didn't look at others with a wink. Who knew you were like that too."
"I'm just from the countryside. Who did I offend? Do I need to be buried like this?"
"Over the years, I have been criticized by people in front of and behind me."
Qin Huairu lowered his head and shed tears.
Silly Zhu felt like he was being hit hard in his heart and hurriedly stepped forward, "Hey, my sister Qin, my aunt, isn't this just a joke? I'm just having fun."
"It's all because of my mouth and my inability to speak. I should be beaten."
Saying this, Shazhu raised his hand and patted his cheek twice.
Unexpectedly, Qin Huairu ignored him at all, "Forget it, let's live our own lives. From now on..."
Qin Huairu said, lowered his head, and two tears fell to the ground.
Silly Zhu's heart also hit the ground. If he was like Yang Xiaotao and broke off the relationship from now on, how could he talk to Sister Qin?
It was so easy to wait until Jia Dongxu was unlucky, this was an opportunity.
Seeing Qin Huairu preparing to leave, Shazhu immediately ran to him, "Sister Qin, oh, Sister Qin, you didn't tell me why you came here, which makes me..."
Qin Huairu lowered his head, his eyes showing cunning under the light.
"I know, don't say anything else, I know everything."
Silly Zhu slapped his head, walked into the room, closed the lunch box and took it out.
"This is for you, okay!"
Qin Huairu still didn't take it, "Zhuzhu, can you help me? Thank you, sister, but I helped you this time, what should I do next time?"
"It's not easy for you to bring something with you. I'm not a shameless person. I can't keep dragging you down like this..."
"Hey, what does this mean? Isn't it just a lunch box? There is so much oil and water in the steel rolling mill, why do they want to eat public food? The popular ones drink spicy food? I can't get involved in some oil and water?"
Speaking of this, Shazhu felt angry, and Qin Huairu on the side immediately changed the topic.
"Really? What does the leader of the steel rolling mill look like?"
"That's right, come on, Sister Qin, come into the room and I'll explain it to you in detail."
Silly Zhu handed over the lunch box, held Qin Huairu's hand and walked into the house.
Unexpectedly, Qin Huairu stood at the door, with her back turned to the outside, refusing to go in, "Zhuzi, Banggeng, they haven't eaten yet. Sister, I'll come back tomorrow to listen to you."
"Ah, okay, then come back tomorrow!"
"real?"
"True, truer than gold."
"Then don't blame me mentally."
"Look what you said, I can blame no one in my heart, but I can't blame you, Sister Qin. No one in this courtyard knows who you are."
Silly Zhu held Qin Huairu's hand with one hand and stretched out his thumb, "On top, you should be filial to your mother-in-law and respect the elderly, and on the bottom, you can take care of the children. The house is neatly tidied up both inside and outside. Compared with those who are not diligent about their body and grain,
The eldest lady is much stronger."
Qin Huairu smiled shyly, feeling very relieved after hearing this. She felt that what she had done over the years was still very fruitful.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just a rural woman and can't compare to the people in the city."
"What's wrong with rural women? Women hold up half of the sky. How can we still distinguish between rural and urban areas today?"
"In my mind, Sister Qin is much better than those who do nothing. In this hospital, Sister Qin, you are the best."
While talking, Shazhu squeezed the back of Qin Huairu's hand hard. The hands that often wash clothes are so smooth and tender.
Qin Huairu felt something was wrong, and quickly took out her hand, holding the lunch box, "I didn't expect that Zhu Zhu, you are sincere and know how difficult it is for my sister."
Silly Zhu giggled when he heard this.
"Then sister will come back tomorrow to get the lunch box."
"Okay, come back tomorrow."
Silly Zhu reluctantly took back his hand and said happily.
