Chapter 57 New Year's Eve Dinner

In the yard, Qin Huairu also stopped He Yushui, and said with a smile, "Yushui, you can celebrate the New Year at my house tonight."

He Yushui glanced at Qin Huairu and said, "Is my brother going to your house for the New Year too?"

Qin Huairu smiled wryly in her heart, if He Yuzhu came to my house to celebrate the New Year, why would I invite you?
"Zhuzi has a misunderstanding about me and my uncle, and he doesn't want to come to my house for the New Year. The deaf old lady also comes to my house for the New Year. You persuade Zhuzi not to make the old lady unhappy."

He Yushui could tell that now He Yuzhu didn't have a good relationship with Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, so he didn't want to talk to them at all.

In the past, He Yushui would have patted his chest and guaranteed that He Yuzhu would come to Qinhuai Rujia to celebrate the New Year.But recently He Yuzhu has changed too much, and even gave her more than 600 yuan as a dowry.

He Yushui was still a little moved, and gave up his plan to push He Yuzhu into the fire pit.

"Sister Qin, you also know that my brother won't listen to me, so I'll try it."

Qin Huairu was still looking forward to it. Their family didn't prepare any good food for the New Year, except for dumplings with cabbage and pork, there was no good food either.Such a New Year's Eve dinner is too shabby for the Jia family.

It would be the best if He Yuzhu could go there with good food.

He Yushui pushed the door open and entered the room, and saw He Yuzhu was preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, sitting at the table unceremoniously.

"Brother, Qin Huairu told me just now that we should go to her house to celebrate the New Year together, will you go?"

He Yuzhu didn't lift her head, and said, "If you want, you can go by yourself. She brought back five catties of pork and a chicken this afternoon, plus the dishes prepared by Yi Zhonghai, it must be a fat year."

He Yushui said dissatisfied: "Your room is full of meat smell, and you still coax me to eat at Qinhuai Ru's house."

"I know it smells like meat, so I didn't come over to help, so I quickly brought the dishes to the table."

He Yushui came to the kitchen quickly and shouted in surprise: "Wow, beef, mutton, chicken and fish. Brother, how did you prepare so much. Fortunately, I am back, otherwise it would be too bad."

He Yuzhu asked: "You said you got married during the Spring Festival, have you set a date yet?"

He Yushui said unhappily: "No, the Spring Festival will not end. He is too busy with work, so we can only wait for his time."

"He Yushui, why do I feel that you are defrauding me of my money? If you don't get married, return the dowry to me immediately."

"Why, there is no money I gave out, and I have to come back. I have spent it all, and I don't want it anymore." He Yushui said arrogantly.

When the last dish was ready, He Yuzhu brought it to the table directly, and said, "Okay. Don't be poor and eat quickly."

There are actually a lot of dishes on the table, and the two of them must not be able to finish them.

He Yushui asked: "Brother, are you really not going to send it to the deaf old lady?"

I definitely can't give it away. If I do, I will be entangled by them again. Didn't He Yuzhu do what he did some time ago for nothing?

"If you don't eat, go out quickly and don't disturb my Chinese New Year."

He Yushui asked, "What happened between you and the uncle?"

"Two days ago, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu had a tryst in the vegetable cellar and were discovered by people in our courtyard. Yi Zhonghai has been forcing me to raise a lover for him, why?"

"No way, isn't the relationship between the uncle and the mother very good?"

"He has a better relationship with Qin Huairu. If you don't believe me, you can inquire in the yard tomorrow."

He Yushui stopped talking and began to concentrate on eating.

The atmosphere in Qin Huairu's house was not good, the deaf old lady almost dropped her chopsticks and went back.On the dinner table, apart from the dumplings, there were only two vegetarian dishes, cabbage and radish.

Is this New Year's Eve?
Yi Zhonghai was in embarrassment. He had secretly sent all these things on the table.Qin Huairu didn't skimp, but there are so many people in your family, and you brought so much meat back in the afternoon, and you didn't take out any of it, it's too unreasonable.

Yi Zhonghai knew that Qin Huairu went to the factory in the afternoon, and also knew what her purpose was.Seeing Qin Huairu holding so many things in the afternoon, I was quite happy.It was also because Qin Huairu came back with something, Yi Zhonghai was not willing to bring the meat from the house to cook.

But what to do now?
With helplessness, Yi Zhonghai explained to the deaf old lady embarrassingly: "Old lady, the situation in Huai Ru's family is like this, don't mind. She is a woman, without the help of the pillars, the life of the family simply cannot go on."

Jia Zhang was afraid of the deaf old lady, so she didn't make any fuss at night. When she heard what Yi Zhonghai said, she pretended not to hear it, and concentrated on eating the dumplings in the bowl.

Yi Zhonghai said so, what can the deaf old lady do?You can't turn your back on Yi Zhonghai.

"I'm getting old, and I've suffered all kinds of hardships. These are much better than those in those days."

What else to say, if you don’t eat dumplings, you will be gone.Seeing Jia Zhang's wolfing down sticks and stems, the deaf old lady couldn't care less.

In fact, Qinhuai Rujia's New Year's Eve dinner is not bad compared to other courtyard houses, at least it is much better than Yan Bugui's.

The New Year's Eve dinner at Yan Bugui's family was still made with half a catty of meat from Keng He Yuzhu, and each person only had a dozen or so dumplings.

"Dad, you're too picky. At least let us eat." Yan Jiecheng, the eldest of the family and the one who pays the family's salary, spoke first.

"That's right, just this little dumpling is not enough to fit between the teeth." Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, and Yan Jiedi also complained.

Yan Bugui knocked on the table and said angrily: "Why are you arguing? You only earn a little money, and you are shouting to eat dumplings. You don't need money for dumplings. I still want to eat dumplings?"

"What about the money I pay every month?" Yan Jiecheng asked.

Looking at Yan Jiecheng's suspicious eyes, Yan Bugui felt uncomfortable.Ever since He Yuzhu related his rescue of Qin Huairu in the middle of the night that night, he hasn't lived a comfortable life.

Conscience of heaven and earth, is he the one who will rescue Qin Huairu in the middle of the night?

His status as the steward of the courtyard was his pride, but now it has become a burden.Yan Bugui felt wronged, no matter how he explained it, no one would believe it.

Yan Bugui couldn't bear to explain to his son again, knocked on the table and said, "Eat it if you like it, if you don't eat it, you will fall down."

The example of this sentence is not small. The things in Yan Bugui's house are all quantitative, and there is no excess at all.If you give up at this time, other people will not be affectionate and keep things.

He Yushui burped and asked, "Brother, don't you want to talk to the deaf old lady?"

"What to say, I don't even have time to avoid them."

He Yushui said, "I'll just go there by myself."

"What are you going to do?"

"I'll help you find information. Didn't you say that Qin Huairu brought back a lot of meat? The meat must have been bribed to the deaf old lady to intercede."

He Yuzhu couldn't believe that Qin Huairu would take out the meat?

But maybe, this is a one-shot deal after all.If it wasn't for the Chinese New Year, Deputy Factory Manager Li wouldn't have given her so many things, but she definitely couldn't count on such a way to live.

He Yuzhu said: "Go if you want, don't tell what our family eats."

He Yushui gave He Yuzhu a blank look, and said, "I'm not stupid, so I wouldn't say it."

There is no need for He Yuzhu to remind him, there are still a lot of dishes left on the table, even if they are leftovers, it is a good thing to take.If Qin Huairu knew about it, he would definitely plan on these dishes.

He Yushui rolled his eyes and said, "I'll take this plate of beef to my house, and I'll eat some more at night when I'm hungry."

"Hurry up and clean up the leftovers on the table."

He Yushui agreed with a smile, and directly brought all the dishes to his room.
