Chapter fifty-seven, the righteous gentleman He Yuzhu
Su Cheng watched the first uncle dismiss everyone in the courtyard, and wanted to go back to the backyard with the first uncle.
But seeing that the first uncle Yi Zhonghai had no intention of leaving at all, looking at Qin Huairu who was still wiping tears in the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai stepped forward to comfort him,
"Huairu, you and your mother-in-law have something that you can't sit down and talk about. Why do you have to make such a fuss?"
Then he looked at Jia and Zhang, and it was the typical fight of fifty each.
"Old sister-in-law, I'm not telling you, you should change your temper. Dongxu left in 1961. It's not easy for Huairu to have a woman dragging your family along in the past few years. Can't you be more considerate and considerate of her?"
When Jia Zhang heard this, she saw that the elder wanted to be a peacemaker, and she knew she was in the wrong. She was about to give in to Qin Huairu, but she saw Qin Huairu leading Xiaodang and Huaihua, and said to the elder categorically,
"Master, please don't try to persuade me about this matter. You saw it today. The neighbors in the courtyard were so anxious to find me, but my mother-in-law didn't even care about my life or death. I will serve such a mother-in-law.
Not coming."
When Jia Zhang saw Qin Huairu's resolute attitude, she knew that she was determined to fight against him, so she also changed her plan to surrender.
He also had a dark face at that moment, pulling the stick aside to point at Sang and scolding Huai, saying,
"Banggen, look, this is your real mother. She is really hard-hearted. She will drive your grandma out of this yard life or death!"
Banggeng glanced at Qin Huairu, thinking about the slap he received today, and said with hatred,
"He is not my mother!"
When Qin Huairu saw this guy who was already as tall as her shoulders, and saw his hostile eyes and hurtful words, she became more determined to drive Jia Zhang out of the courtyard.
Thinking that the stick is gone, Jia Zhang is fanning the flames and igniting the fire. I will teach him well in the future, and he will eventually get better.
Seeing the tit-for-tat confrontation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the uncle shook his head and stopped talking. He glanced at Su Cheng, who was standing next to him eating melon, and said angrily,
"Seiko, come back to the backyard with me!"
When Su Cheng saw the old man like this, he didn't know that he was dissatisfied with his previous gag, so he also laughed and said,
"Dele, sir, let's go."
…
In the courtyard, in front of Jia's house, Su Cheng followed the uncle back to the backyard, and everyone else in the courtyard also left one after another.
At this time, two young children, Xiaodang and Huaihua, took Qin Huairu's hand and said,
"Mom, I'm so hungry!"
"Sophora japonica is also very hungry!"
Qin Huairu actually hasn't had a drop of water all day. She can starve, but she doesn't want her children to starve with her.
At the same time, I also had doubts in my mind, did Jia Zhang not give them food?
So he asked softly, "Xiaodang, Sophora japonica, didn't you have dinner tonight?"
Xiao Dang, who had two pigtails, glanced at Jia Zhang from a distance and said cautiously,
"We didn't even eat lunch."
Huaihua, who has short hair and baby fat on her face, also makes a milky voice,
"Grandma only cooks for my brother, not us!"
After hearing what Xiaodang and Huaihua said, Qin Huairu glanced coldly at Jia Zhang who was blocking the door to prevent her from entering the house.
There was a feeling of sadness in my heart again. As a mother-in-law, she only cared about BangGeng and had always treated the two girls coldly.
But she didn't expect that she wouldn't even let Xiaodang and Sophora japonica take a bite of the food while she was away!
Qin Huairu had a lot of thoughts in her heart. She turned back and glanced at Shazhu's house. She hesitated and was about to lead Xiaodang and Huaihua to find Shazhu.
Jia Zhang, who was behind her, saw this scene and sneered at Qin Huairu,
"Qin Huairu, don't be so shameless!"
Qin Huairu pursed her lips and refused to talk to Jia Zhang anymore. She took Xiaodang and Huaihua's hands and said softly,
"Xiao Dang, Sophora japonica, let's go find your silly uncle and ask your silly uncle to make delicious food for you."
…
In the backyard, the grandfather’s house.
The elder Yi Zhonghai and Su Cheng sat opposite each other. The aunt beside her poured a glass of water for Su Cheng and also sat down at the table.
Reflecting the dim lights in the room, Su Cheng glanced at the old man who called him over but hesitated to speak and said,
"Master, if you have anything to do, just say it. If you don't say anything, I'm feeling quite panicked."
Yi Zhonghai glanced at Su Cheng and saw that he still looked unconcerned, and finally said,
"Chengzi, can you be less involved in the affairs of the courtyard?"
When Su Cheng heard this, he could actually guess what the elder was thinking. He was the elder of this courtyard, but today Su Cheng refuted his reputation twice.
One time was about the lock in the morning. Yi Zhonghai and Xi Ni asked Su Cheng to pay Jia and Zhang one yuan to settle the matter, but Su Cheng refused.
The other time was tonight. Yi Zhonghai wanted to deal with the Jia family's affairs privately with Xi Ni again, but Su Cheng put it on the table again.
This will make Yi Zhonghai somewhat uncomfortable, as he feels that his prestige has been damaged, and it is also inconsistent with his style of doing things.
If Su Cheng was just an ordinary neighbor in the courtyard, he could just scold him as an elder and then make a decision. But as he is the chief of the security department, his words carry more weight than the elder in the courtyard.
This made Yi Zhonghai feel embarrassed.
Su Cheng considered it for a moment and looked at the first man who asked knowingly,
"Master, I don't know what you are talking about?"
Yi Zhonghai glanced at Su Cheng and said dissatisfied,
"Chengzi, do you need to go online about a lock in the morning? Just pay Jia and Zhang a dollar. You don't lack this dollar, so why bother making the whole courtyard crazy?
?If you don’t want to come out, I can give it to you. Just because of what happened in the morning, you see that the Jia family is having such a fuss tonight, and the whole yard is not peaceful. You are still lighting up the fire, so the Jia family
As for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, if we don’t mention the meeting in the courtyard later, I’m afraid it will cause trouble in the street. If word gets out, won’t it make people laugh at the people in our courtyard?”
When Su Cheng saw that the elder was talking about this, he also spoke frankly and honestly,
"Master, you always think about turning big things into trivial matters in the courtyard, but you can only be fair. Look at Jia Zhang, it's not right for you to act arrogantly in the courtyard because of your seniority.
It's been a day or two. I don't care about the dollar, but I can't bear to see this kind of nonsense. Don't blame me for talking too much tonight. Our courtyard is helping Jia Zhang find someone. Look at her attitude. Everyone is so kind and she doesn't appreciate it.
Forget it, why should I still be angry with her?"
Listening to Su Cheng's explanation, the first man didn't hear it at all. Instead, he looked at Su Cheng seriously and said,
"Chengzi, Jia's family is in trouble. Can't you just pay her a dollar and treat it as helping her family to tide over the difficulties? Besides, Jia and Zhang are also your elders. Isn't it right for everyone to be humble? We can't be too selfish.
!”
Su Cheng was speechless after listening to the wise words of the first master. However, he also knew that it would be difficult to change the first master's style of doing things and inherent concepts with just a few words of his own, but he still couldn't help but retort,
"Master, I don't agree with what you are saying. Jia Zhang has the virtues of an elder and I naturally respect her, but does she have it? What does it mean that people can't be too selfish? If she steps on my toes, I still want to do it.
Did you shine her shoes with a smile?"
After hearing Su Cheng's words, the elder didn't say anything more. Seeing this, the elder aunt on the side also hurriedly came out to smooth things over.
"Shengzi, your uncle is so stupid, don't be as knowledgeable as him."
…
In the middle courtyard, there was a knock on the door of Shazhu's house.
He opened the door and saw Qin Huairu leading Xiaodang and Huaihua at the door, looking at him with tears in their eyes, and said in confusion,
"Qin Huairu, what are you doing? Don't cry at my door. People who don't know think I did something to you!"
Qin Huairu looked at Silhu and said in a sad tone,
"Silly Zhu, the two children haven't eaten all day. I can't help it. Do you have anything to eat in the house? Let Xiaodang and Huaihua fill their bellies!"
Xiaodang and Huaihua looked at Silly Zhu pitifully and said,
"Uncle He, we haven't eaten all day."
"Uncle He, Sophora japonica is so hungry."
Silly Zhu frowned, but now he remembered the words he heard when he passed by He Yuyu's door last night.
It was rare that he wanted to refuse, but looking at the pitiful looks of Xiaodang and Huaihua, he couldn't bear it and said angrily,
"Come in first, there's some steamed buns in the house, I'll heat them up for you."
Seeing this, Qin Huairu asked Xiaodang and Huaihua to sit at the table, while she followed Shazhu to the stove.
Qin Huairu looked tenderly at Silhu, who had his back turned to her, poked him and said,
"Shazhu, thank you!"
In the past, Silly Zhu would have never tired of joking with Qin Huairu, but this time he rarely turned around and said seriously,
"Comrade Qin Huairu, men and women are not intimate, please be respectful! Don't let people in the compound misunderstand our relationship!"
