Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 337: An account in my heart
Qin Huairu stood in the alley, not going back to the compound and not talking.

Her mood was very contradictory and entangled.

I feel like I am a miserable person, thinking that I can enjoy happiness by marrying into the city.

As a result, after a few years of good life, she became a widow.

Pulling the three children, it was easy to meet the silly Zhu in the courtyard who was willing to help, but now, he has to leave.

She came from a rural area, why should she bear so much, she is just a woman, a woman without a man, is she wrong?
Don't you just want to make your family's life better and your own life better? Why is God always so unfair?
I have never done anything harmful to God, and I have never flirted with other men in these years of widowhood. But why is this happening?

Qin Huairu couldn't figure it out, how can those women who have broken shoes with other men have a good life, can eat well all day long, drink spicy food, and wear good clothes. Is it possible that she can do that too?
Director Li belittled her, and ordinary workers in the factory also wanted to take advantage of her, and even humiliated her with dirty words in front of her.

She is a widow, who does she owe?

Why is she always subjected to this kind of torture?

Is there anything wrong with this book?Are those who are bitches superior?
She is either uneducated or unwilling to do those dirty things.

Silly Zhu was kind to her, so she just got closer to Silly Zhu. Why would she be criticized?

Qin Huairu hasn't read many books, so she doesn't know her well. Since ancient times, she has been laughing at the poor but not at the prostitute.

A gust of wind gushed in from the entrance of the alley, blowing past.
Silhu finished smoking a cigarette. Seeing Qin Huairu being silent, he put the cigarette butt on the ground and said:

"Sister Qin, forget it, I think we can just do this!"

After Shazhu finished speaking, he went back to the compound alone in despair. Qin Huairu stared blankly, his eyes full of helplessness and reluctance.

When she returned to the middle courtyard, Mrs. Jia Zhang stood at the door of the house and asked quietly:
"Huairu, have you told Shazhu?"

"said."

"Did Sha Zhu stop going to college?" Jia Zhang asked.

Qin Huairu looked at her mother-in-law expressionlessly, shook her head, sighed, opened the door curtain and walked into the room without saying anything.

Mrs. Jia Zhang was a little confused, turned around and chased into the house, continuing to ask questions.

"Huairu, tell Shazhu well, he will absolutely listen to you."

Qin Huairu sat on the kang with a lonely expression, raised her head suddenly, stared at Mrs. Jia Zhang, and said coldly:
"Mom, why do you think that Sha Zhu wants to listen to me? What is my relationship with him? What is our relationship with him? Why do people insist on listening to me."

Jia Zhang's complexion darkened suddenly, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

Seeing Qin Huairu lose his temper, Jia Zhang didn't say anything for a long time.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Mrs. Jia and Zhang had dinner. Sitting in the house, she saw through the window that Shazhu was enjoying the cool air with the uncle and mother in the courtyard. She wanted Qin Huairu to talk to Shazhu again.

She actually knew that Shazhu liked Qin Huairu, but she didn't want them to get together because she couldn't let Qin Huairu, her daughter-in-law, feel sorry for her dead son.

She also didn’t want people in the courtyard to see her family’s jokes.

She just wants Shazhu to save her family.

However, Sha Zhu is going to college with Xu Qing. Without Sha Zhu's support, she may not be able to eat her white-flour steamed buns.

At midnight, Mrs. Jia Zhang lay on the kang and couldn't sleep. She got up from the kang and walked out of the house in the dark. She sat alone at the door of the house, looking at the dark night and Silly Zhu's house, and cursed secretly in her heart. .

"Silly Zhu, you are a person who has been stabbed a thousand times. You don't know a single word, how dare you go to college? You are not afraid of being embarrassed if you go?!"

As Jia Zhang cursed, she couldn't help but think of her dead son Jia Dongxu, and she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.

If the son is still alive, how can the family be in such a situation.

Mrs. Jia Zhang sat outside the house for most of the night, leaning against the threshold, thinking about all the people in the courtyard and scolding them all.

Finally, the curse was directed at Xu Qing, and Jia Zhang gritted her teeth in hatred.

I always feel that Xu Qingming has become a cadre, and he knows that her family is in a bad situation, but he always refuses to help her family. He is simply inhuman!
My parents deserved to die early, bah!
Jia Zhang's heart surged with hatred. She looked sideways at Yi Zhonghai's house, turned her head and spat hard on the ground again.

"Yi, you are nothing! You are just a master. If you don't help me and let everyone in the compound help my family, how can you have the face to be a master in charge? Bah!"

However, Mrs. Jia Zhang cursed for a long time, only in her heart but not out loud.

There is not even a man in her family now, her son is dead, and her grandson has gone to the countryside to jump in the queue. She has no confidence to challenge the people in the courtyard.

I can only hate and curse in my heart.

three days later.

Jia Zhang heard Sha Zhu tell Xu Qing in the middle courtyard that they would go to university together in September.

Immediately, his face darkened, he looked at Shazhu and Xu Qing, and poured a basin of dirty water on the place where Shazhu and Xu Qing were standing.

Xu Qing's trouser legs were completely wet, and the uppers of his shoes were also splashed with mud. Silly Zhu turned his head to look at Jia Zhang and said:

"Hey, Aunt Zhang, are your eyes so bad today? Didn't you see the two living people?"

"Silly Zhu, you kid, get the hell out of here. I want to splash water. Are you using your eyes to vent your anger?"

Jia Zhang returned to the time when he was harsh and mean to Sha Zhu.

Silly Zhu tilted his head, raised his neck, and glared at Mrs. Jia Zhang, wanting to argue with her.

Xu Qing looked at Jia Zhang with a cold face.

"Auntie, Brother Silly Zhu and I's eyes are for venting anger, so are your eyes too?"

Jia Zhang's choked face sank, she gave Xu Qing a dark look in her eyes, then turned and entered the room.

Xu Qing knew that Mrs. Jia Zhang was dissatisfied. Sha Zhu was going to college. Her family would not be able to be reconciled without Sha Zhu's support in the future.

But the problem is, Silly Zhu is not her son.

Over the years, Si Zhu has been very good to her family in the courtyard.

Every afternoon after get off work, I would bring a lunch box to Qin Huairu. She usually had some physical work to do. Shazhu lived in the middle courtyard and often acted as a laborer.

If Mrs. Jia Zhang really treats Silly Zhu like a stupid boy, she is taking herself too seriously.

Furthermore, there was no one else in the courtyard who had not helped her family.

She, Jia Zhang, borrowed rice to borrow noodles, vinegar, and garlic, and Xu Qing lived in the backyard, and did not give less throughout the year.

Although they were all worthless things, they were all borrowed from Jinghong when Xu Qing was not in the courtyard.

But for Qin Huairu's sake, Xu Qing never let the Jia family pay back.

Jiazhang not only didn't appreciate it, but also kept saying behind his back that he was a cadre and never helped her.

Why did Xu Qing blindly forbear.

As a human being, you can't always think about getting more and more.

She can't use other people's kindness to her as a way for her to do what she wants.

Her Jia family's life is difficult, and it's not Xu Qing's fault.

When the Xu Qing family was having a hard time, why didn't Jia Zhang think of providing relief, even though Jia Dongxu was already paralyzed at that time?

But the situation of the Jia family was still better than that of the Xu Qing family at that time.

Now Mrs. Jia and Zhang just talk about it and think that Xu Qing's family didn't help her family. What did they do in the first place?

Xu Qing took Silly Zhu back to her home in the backyard. Ma Jinghong was surprised when she saw that the man's trouser legs were wet. She hurriedly took out a pair of new trousers from the closet and asked Xu Qing to put them on, and asked:
"Brother Qing, what's the matter with you?"

Xu Qing took the pants handed over by his wife and went to the hut where Aiguo and Fengming lived to change them. Silly Zhu said to Jinghong:
"Hey, don't mention it, it's not Aunt Zhang, I was talking to Qingzi in the middle courtyard, and she poured a basin of water over."

When Ma Jinghong heard this, anger appeared on her face, "Aunt Zhang is really, what are you doing in the yard all day long? Just a while ago, she came to me to borrow a few taels of millet. I happen to have no millet at home, so I don't have any Here it is, why are you angry with Brother Qing?!"

Silly Zhu sat on the edge of the kang, holding the smoke in his mouth and said: "Jinghong, she is not quarreling with Qingzi, but with me."

"Attack you?"

Ma Jinghong frowned slightly for a moment.

Silly Zhu puffed out a puff of smoke and said with a helpless smile: "Didn't Qingzi ask me to go to university with him? Aunt Zhang thinks that if I'm not in the courtyard, no one will help her with her work."

When Sha Zhu said this, Xu Qing changed his pants and came back from his second younger brother's hut. Hearing what Sha Zhu said, he thought to himself: "Brother Sha Zhu is enlightened. He actually thought of this."

Seeing Xu Qing's return, Ma Jinghong didn't listen to Sha Zhu's words, and hurriedly took the pants that her man had changed into, and put them into the laundry tub, ready to wash them later.

Silly Zhu was smoking a cigarette, seeing Ma Jinghong being so kind to Xu Qing, he felt indescribably envious.

After half an hour.

Ma Jinghong and the little girl were cooking dinner in the kitchen.

Silly Zhu was still sitting in the front room of Xu Qing's house, talking to Xu Qing about going to college.

Xu Qing said: "Brother Silly Zhu, let's talk while eating."

Silly Zhu's face showed embarrassment, "Qingzi, you have a lot of family. I'll go back to my house and get some food. I'll deal with you in one bite. You guys eat what you have."

Silly Zhu stood up and was about to leave, but Xu Qing stopped him and said:
"Patriot won't come back tonight. There is something going on at the main factory. He has to socialize with the big leaders in the factory tonight. Fengming went to play with his college classmates. He won't eat at home tonight. It's just Jing and I. Hong, Xiaoya and my son, there is no one else, so you just sit down and eat, what's the matter, do you think the food at brother's house is not to your liking?"

Silly Zhu chuckled and bared his teeth:
"Qingzi, what do I dislike? I taught you and the little girl the cooking skills, and Jinghong also learned from me. How can I dislike the skills of my apprentice."

Silly Zhu's words directly made the little girl and Jinghong laugh.

Xu Qing handed the chopsticks to Shazhu and said: "Brother Shazhu, then eat it, don't see each other with your brother."

Sha Zhu took the chopsticks and sat down on the edge of the Kang again, but realizing that this was not his home, he put down the chopsticks and said, "I'll wash my hands first."

Silly Zhu washed his hands, Jinghong and the little girl continued to bring out all the food in the kitchen.

Xu Qing then turned around and left the house, went to the old lady's house, carried the old lady to his home, and at the same time called his son, who had been naughty all day, home for dinner.

In the early morning of the weekend, Xu Qing walked out of the compound with the postmark early in the morning, signed for the letter sent by Wu Xiuying, and took it home.

Ma Jinghong opened the letter, read it again, and said to Xu Qing:

"Brother Qing, Wu Xiuying said that she installed a telephone at home over there, and wanted to know the number of our telephone number, so that I can make calls in the future, which is convenient."

Xu Qing held his son who was playing on his back with one hand, looked at the letter written by Wu Xiuying, thought for a moment and said:
"Then why don't we install a phone in our house?"

"Look at you, if you want to pretend, you can pretend. If you don't want to, I will go to the regiment tomorrow and call her on the regiment's phone."

Xu Qing slapped his naughty son on the butt, turned to Jing Hong and said:
"Then let's install one at home. I will go to university for further studies in a few months. If there is something wrong at home, you don't have to go to school to find me. It's also convenient to call me."

Ma Jinghong looked at Xu Qing with faint eyes, "Thank you for thinking about your home. It's just that installing a phone is very expensive. Our hospital only installs it at home, so it's not cost-effective."

Xu Qing hummed. It is true that these days, installing a telephone and routing the wiring is very troublesome. The cost for a single house is not low.

Xu Qing pondered for a while and said, "Then I'll ask Brother Damao to see if he decorates his home. It would be best if we can get it together."

After Xu Qing finished speaking, he stood up and walked outside the house towards Xu Damao's house.

It's just early in the morning, when Xu Damao was still sleeping naked in the room, Qin Jingru came out and said:

"Da Mao was drunk outside last night, and he still hasn't woken up yet."

Xu Qing had no choice but to give up for now and wait until morning.

It's just that in the morning, when Xu Qing went to look for Xu Damao again, Xu Damao had long since disappeared, and Qin Jingru didn't know where he went.

Xu Qing had no choice but to go to the post office to find out the cost of installing the phone, and then tell Xu Damao about it at night.

As for the three uncles in the courtyard, Xu Qing knew that they would not be willing to spend money on installing a phone, so he didn't ask.

The third uncle is stingy, the first uncle is thrifty, and the second uncle Liu Haizhong, recently because of Liu Guangtian's upcoming marriage, he is very worried. If he has money in his hand, if it is used to install the phone, Liu Guangtian must demolish the house.

At noon, Xu Qing had lunch at home and was ready to go out on his bike.

At this time, Ma Jiefang brought his wife Wu Yuemei and son Ma Xiaojun to the compound. Hearing that Xu Qing was going to the post office to inquire about installing a telephone, he immediately said with a playful smile:

"Brother-in-law, I'll go too, let's go together. My dad also wants to install a phone at home, so I'll go and find out about it."

Wu Yuemei held her son in her arms and gave Ma Jiefang a white look, "When did our father say that? You just want to go out for a walk, you think I don't know."

Ma Jiefang said seriously: "Daughter-in-law, my father really told me about it, why don't you believe it?"

"Do I dare to believe what you say?" Wu Yuemei snorted coldly, then turned around and poured bitterness on Ma Jinghong.

"Sister Jinghong, he is a bastard. He says he doesn't drink. He comes home from get off work every day and throws his children to me without taking them with him. Then he goes to drink alone with those unmarried people in the courtyard. When he is drunk, he still wants to Bullying me, how can you think of a father like him?"

Ma Jinghong glared at her younger brother coldly, picked up the feather duster with her right hand, and was about to clean it up for Wu Yuemei.

Ma Jiefang hid behind Xu Qing in fright, and hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Fifth sister, listen to my sophistry. Explain, I'm really not like that. Yuemei did it on purpose. I haven't had a drink for almost a month, so she just wants you to clean me up."

Ma Jinghong didn't bother to listen to her younger brother's excuses, so she stretched out her hand to grab Xu Qing, and was about to greet Ma Jiefang with a feather duster.

Ma Jiefang scratched the ground, pushed his bicycle, and ran out of the courtyard, shouting:
"Brother-in-law, I'll wait for you outside!"
