Get something in the courtyard

Chapter 1614 Borrowing a House

With the help of the two widows, Bang Geng was finally persuaded. This is very similar to Jia Dongxu's character.

At the beginning, Jia Dongxu was still very outstanding. Otherwise, Yi Zhonghai would not have taken a fancy to Jia Dongxu, and even went against the deaf old lady for Jia Dongxu.

You have to know that at that time, he had just become a big boss and his prestige had not yet been fully established.

But later, under the influence of Jia Zhang and the deliberate torture of Yi Zhonghai, he gave up on himself.

After that, he became what everyone called a "mama's boy" and listened to Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi on everything. If Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi had different opinions, Jia Zhangshi's opinion would prevail.

What good ideas could Jia Zhangshi have? The only idea she could give him was to go to Yi Zhonghai to borrow money.

Yi Zhonghai was a man who was reluctant to give, so he pushed Sha Zhu out.

Jia Dongxu was too embarrassed to go find Sha Zhu, so he could only ask Qin Huairu to come forward.

Qin Huairu is extremely greedy by nature. Although she says she is unwilling, she is actually eager to find Sha Zhu and exchange her ambiguity for Sha Zhu's salary.

Bang Geng still had a hint of stubbornness in him, and he said stubbornly: "I would rather sleep on the street than go to Yi Zhonghai's house."

The two widows only hope that nothing happens to Banggeng, so they will naturally not let Banggeng down.

Jia Zhang said, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. That old man is not a good person. Anyway, your two sisters are not coming back, so I will set up a bed for you outside. Your mother and I will sleep inside."

Qin Huairu didn't say anything and chose to acquiesce. This way, it would be easier to explain to Yi Zhonghai.

At this time, Qin Jingru knocked on the door of the Jia family, carrying a lot of bags.

Qin Huairu opened the door and said with a frown: "What are you doing here?"

Qin Jingru had no place to live, so she could only smile and say, "Sister, Xu Damao kicked me out, and I have no place to live. I want to stay at your house for two days."

"Get out! We don't have room in our house. Even if we did, we wouldn't take in an ungrateful person like you." Qin Huairu stretched out his hand and pushed Qin Jingru.

Qin Jingru was unwilling and kept squeezing in. She had something in her hand and was no match for Qin Huairu, so she had to shout, "I can pay."

Having lived in the Siheyuan for so many years, I know Qin Huairu's personality very well. As long as she is paid, there is nothing she dare not do. Didn't you see that for money, she stayed up late every night to date Yi Zhonghai?
The word "money" is indeed the Jia family's weak point.

Qin Huairu's hands were still on Qin Jingru's body, but she was powerless. Jia Zhang's voice of disgust also stopped.

The two widows looked at each other in tacit understanding, and then they began to have a headache. There was not enough space in their home to accommodate Qin Jingru.

Qin Jingru didn't think too much about it, and said, "Sister, please be kind. I really can't find a place to live. Please let me stay for a few days. I will go to the company to apply for a dormitory tomorrow. If I get it, I will move out."

Qin Huairu felt a pain in her heart. That would be such a waste of money. Wouldn’t it be better to give the money to her?
But she had no house and there was nothing she could do.

"Jingru, it's not that I don't want to take you in, it's just that there's no place for you to stay at home. Look, I'm just about to clean up the place and let Banggeng come back to live."

Qin Jingru asked, "Isn't Banggeng living well at Uncle Yi's house?"

In Xu Damao's house, Yi Zhonghai was addressed by his first name. This was because Xu Damao and Yi Zhonghai had a bad relationship and she could not go against Xu Damao.

But it's not okay in front of the Jia family, especially Qin Huairu. Everyone knows that Qin Huairu has a good relationship with Yi Zhonghai.

Qin Huairu sighed: "Don't worry about it. It's not convenient for me, my mother-in-law and Banggeng to live in the same room, let alone you."

This is true.

Qin Jingru is not even forty years old yet, and it is indeed not suitable for her to live in the same house with her nephew Banggeng.

"Well, I'll think of another way." Jia Zhang suddenly said, "If you have no place to live, you can ask Huairu to talk to Yi Zhonghai and ask him to let you live in Yi Zhonghai's house."

She proposed this for the money in Qin Jingru's hands. Although the place belonged to Yi Zhonghai, they were definitely the ones who collected the money.

Qin Huairu was a little moved.

But Qin Jingru was not happy.

Yi Zhonghai is no longer the respected uncle, but an old bastard and hypocrite who does not respect his elders.

Qin Jingru didn't dare to live in the same room with him: "Forget it. I'm a woman, living with an old man. I don't know what others would say if they knew. How can I face people in the future?"

This sentence did not imply Qin Huairu's intention, but it made Qin Huairu's face darken: "If you don't want to, forget it, you can find a place to live by yourself. There are many unused houses in our courtyard, such as Wang Kun's house, Sha Zhu's house, and the temporary houses of the second and third uncles.

By the way, Shazhu just left. If you chase him faster, you might be able to catch up with him."

Qin Jingru immediately thought it made sense and threw the things to Qin Huairu: "Sister, please keep an eye on it for me. I'll go talk to Sha Zhu."

Jia Zhang asked, "Will Sha Zhu agree?"

Qin Huairu put the things away and said, "Let's give it a try. If we come forward, Sha Zhu will definitely not agree. Now we can only rely on Jingru. Sha Zhu and Xu Damao are sworn enemies and are eager to cause trouble for Xu Damao.

When she gets the key, I will discuss with her and let her live in our house, and Banggeng will live in the Shazhu house."

The two widows were planning to move in. Once they moved in, no one would ask them to move out. Anyone who dared to ask them to move out would be bullying the widows.

Qin Jingru quickly caught up with Sha Zhu and said, "Sha Zhu, can you lend me your house?"

Sha Zhu said, "No. Xu Damao's house is not big enough for you to live in."

Qin Jingru said, "It's all because of you that Xu Damao kicked me out. I went to look for my sister, but there was no place for her to stay at home, so she asked me to look for you."

Guo Xianghong understood what was going on and said directly, "We haven't moved our things yet, so we can't lend them to you. If you have nowhere to live, go find the second and third uncles. Both of their houses are empty."

Sha Zhu agreed, "That's right. Go find them. It's better to go find the second uncle. The third uncle is too stingy and will definitely ask you for money."

"Silly Zhu, your house is just sitting there idle anyway."

Guo Xianghong snorted: "Qin Jingru, can you guarantee that our house will not be taken away by Qin Huairu if we lend it to you?"

Qin Jingru opened her mouth, but didn't dare to say a word of promise. At this time, she also understood that Qin Huairu had no good intentions in giving her this idea.

Guo Xianghong pulled Sha Zhu away.

Qin Jingru sighed and could only go back to find the two uncles. She thought about it and decided to find Yan Bugui. Liu Haizhong's home was in the backyard, and she was worried that Xu Damao would beat her if he drank too much. Although Yan Bugui wanted money, he stayed away from the backyard.

When Qin Huairu returned to the courtyard and learned that he had not been able to borrow the house, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

After seeing this, Qin Jingru became more certain of Guo Xianghong's guess and went to the front yard with his things.

"Uncle, is your house empty? Can you rent it to me?"

When Yan Bugui heard that there was business coming, he was very happy, and he and his wife fooled Qin Jingru together. Not only did they rent the house to Qin Jingru, but they also asked him to pay for a month's food expenses at his house and eat with them.

Qin Jingru agreed when she thought that she had no place to cook. She went to pack up her things, leaving Yan Bugui and his wife to count the ten yuan in their hands.
