A pleasant life in a courtyard

Chapter 117 Qin Huairu’s distress
The third uncle took advantage of the elder sister's confusion.

He continued to add: "If your third aunt knew that all these good-looking women came to help and left her alone, how sad would she be?"

Whoever plays well with her will be mean to death when the third aunt doesn't get a good deal.

Even Aunt Jia, who always speaks unpleasantly, can't talk down to her. If you think about it, you will know how unforgiving the third aunt can be when she speaks harsh words.

The eldest sister complained secretly in her heart.

"Let's see, I'll call your third aunt over to help. We all will happily help your family with this matter."

The third uncle said that he was about to turn around and go home to ask for help.

But he was stopped by Li Xiang who heard the following words.

He didn't like to hear such threatening words. What did he mean? If he didn't invite the third aunt, he would cause trouble or something.

If you don't invite her, you can't have fun.

"Third uncle, our family has enough. Didn't you see that the kitchen is crowded? There is no place to stand when Third Aunt comes!"

Li Xiang's tone was not very good, and the subtext was also very clear.

Today's kitchen is different from that of the Jia family. With so many people, there is no place for the third aunt to use them.

Moreover, what Li Xiang thinks is that if you insist on calling someone, I will do something that will make you work in vain, without any benefit at all.

I don’t know if he was frightened by Li Xiang’s tone, or if the third uncle didn’t want to break up with the Li family, he really didn’t go to the third aunt.

After chatting casually, he ran to the door of the old lady's house, where the first and second uncles were sitting.

When the second uncle saw him coming, he immediately asked excitedly: "Lao Yan, how many gifts did your family pack?"

This third uncle has nothing to hide. In recent years, under the guise of supporting his family with 29 yuan, he has always paid a dime for anyone who works for them.

"You are really Yan Laoyan, no, I will call you Yan Yimao from now on." The second uncle said disdainfully when he heard the amount.

He felt that Lao Yan was not very smart. It was obvious that the Li family was about to soar into the sky, and all he could do was to make a dime while he was still digging around.

The news about Lao Yan's salary adjustment has long been spread throughout the hospital. In the early years, it was really difficult. There was no other way. If you paid a few cents and a dime, no one would say anything.

But if you want to fool people with a dime now, then don't blame them for treating you like an ordinary neighbor.

After all, your relationship is just a dime-a-dozen favor.

What a no brainer~
The second uncle couldn't help but feel proud when he thought of this. He thought far ahead and gave him two yuan.

It’s not too serious, and it’s not too light either. From now on, it’s easy to speak out.

Like what Li wanted to say to him a few days ago, he felt that the gift was worth it.

If people didn't think he was a good second uncle, why would they tell him? No one had told him this in the past.

He had a hunch that from now on, he would be right to listen more to what Li Xiang said.

This guy has a good idea, and you won't suffer any loss if you follow him.

When the old man and the old lady heard the amount of ten cents, they winked at each other and couldn't suppress the smiles on their lips.

This Yan Laoxi really has a plan for success and failure.

When the Li family held a banquet this time, even the old lady did not act like she did before, favoring boys over girls.

Last year she gave Li two yuan to go to college, and this year she also gave two yuan to her eldest sister.

The old man paid a dollar.

Compared with the time when I gave gifts to the Jia family, it was like swapping the amount with the second uncle.

He thinks more about it. Logically speaking, the Jia family has a closer relationship with him than the Li family.

And even if the Li family has turned over now, he still wants to increase his popularity, but he doesn't want to make it so obvious.Going up to him eagerly will only make people look down on you. His self-esteem doesn't despise such a blatant approach to please someone like the second uncle.

The best idea in his mind is that people will take the initiative to help if something happens. Even if he doesn't want to trouble others, they will come forward and insist on helping.

It is a pity that in this courtyard now, except for He Yuzhu who can occasionally do this, other people do not have such "virtue".

In a blink of an eye, it was time to open the table, and the three tables were quickly filled.

Mrs. Jia Zhang, who had not shown up before, seemed to have an ear for the wind. As soon as she heard the call to open the banquet, she appeared out of nowhere.

Although Qin Huairu was busy with work, her eyes were always staring at her mother-in-law.

Seeing that there were no other children behind me, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were arguing about this last night.

Mrs. Jia Zhang wanted to bring Banggan over to have a feast with her, but Qin Huairu refused to let her go.

"Mom, everyone has already decided. There is only one person in the family. What are you going to do with your children?"

"The child can eat as much as he wants. I don't believe the Li family can drive us away with so many people." Mrs. Jia Zhang said nonchalantly, as if a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

Qin Huairu said angrily: "You know there are so many people, so if no one else takes you, our Jia family has no rules. You just want to be pointed out by others."

Her life is difficult enough, why can't the whole family live a good life together?

It doesn't matter if it's a little difficult or tiring, she can bear it, but can her family not hold her back?

She also wanted to be like Aunt Zheng, who could straighten her backbone and raise several children well, so that each of them would become talented and enviable.

pat.

A big tear fell onto the table without warning.

Jia Zhang was so shocked that she still wanted to refute. Bang Gang and Xiao Dang also held their breaths and looked at their mother with helpless eyes.

Banggeng didn't dare to make the fuss about going to dinner with grandma like before.

Mrs. Jia Zhang comforted her stiffly: "What's wrong? I didn't say anything to you. If you don't want to go, I won't go."

She has lived so long, and she has experienced a lot of storms.

Although there are many criticisms of his behavior, he is not a fool.

The wife looked like this, and one could tell at a glance that the rope was about to break to its limit. If she continued to argue, she would not be able to get anything done, so she simply took a step back.

Mrs. Jia Zhang said she would stop making trouble, but Qin Huairu's tears could not be stopped.

She felt so bitter. When Dongxu just left, she thought she could endure it.

But no one told her that being a widow would be so difficult.

She has to take care of the elderly on her own and the children on her own.

I have to deal with both work and housework. I am as busy as a top every day, but there is nothing left.

It is clear that he is a good person, but the rumors outside have never stopped.

Things she has never done can be blamed on her. How can a human heart be so bad?

Qin Huairu felt that if she continued like this, she would be driven to death.

no way~
If you want to keep these two things, self-respect and conscience, you have to pay countless times more than if you give them up.
