Zhu Tian: The Fiery Years Begin with Taking Qin Huairu as a Concubine

Chapter 108 Why

Zhang Kaiwu had actually heard their conversation. His cheap mother-in-law wanted to make trouble!

How could the young lady let Zhang Kaiwu take risks? She was so worried last time.

My sister is important, but not as important as Zhang Kaiwu!

The young lady felt a little regretful.

If you shouldn't come back, just ask someone to send you something.

Just when I resolved one problem, another one arises.

The young lady wants to go back.

It was fine as long as she met her mother today, she didn't want to ask about other things.

If her sister was fine, she would still like to bring her home to stay for a few days.

If Kaiwu likes it, it doesn't matter if he stays.

Now that my sister is having health problems, I don’t want to take her back to live with me.

…………

Watch them finish their conversation and look at the young lady's expression.

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and advised the young lady:

"Zhao Di! Let's take them out to play for a few days. We haven't seen each other for such a long time."

The young lady looked at Zhang Kaiwu in embarrassment and found that he was serious.

Pan Di looked at her expectantly. She really wanted to go and have some fun and let her brother-in-law think of a solution.

The young lady hasn't said it yet.

Thinking that Zhang Kaiwu could beat the tiger, the cheap mother-in-law said quickly:

"Kaiwu! Then let Pan Di go and play with you guys for a while. I won't go. I still have to cook and wash clothes for your father, otherwise he will starve to death."

The young lady looked at Zhang Kaiwu again to confirm her expression before saying:
"Mom! If that's the case, let Pan Di go and play for a while."

The matter was settled, and the young lady and her sister-in-law waited under the shade of a tree.

Zhang Kaiwu sent his mother-in-law back, got on his bicycle, and said goodbye with the Hanyang-made bicycle on his back.

The old scholar lay down in the room and did not come out to see him off.

After returning to the outside of the village, Zhang Kaiwu rode a bicycle with his sister-in-law, while the young lady rode a bicycle alone.

Zhang Kaiwu would tease her from time to time on the way and pinch her secretly, and the sister-in-law would often whisper that she wanted to complain.

She went back to her parents' home and saw her mother.

The young lady smiled and felt much happier in her heart.

They were very happy.

In less than half an hour, we were back in Qinjiatun.

It’s just a few kilometers away, separated by three villages.

This era is also very far away.

…………

As soon as Zhang Kaiwu arrived near his home, he heard Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi quarreling fiercely.

Liang Ladi was learning to ride a bicycle alone at the door, while Qin Huairu was sneering at her.

He whispered that Liang Ladi was a fool.

Liang Ladi was not to be outdone, and every word she said was full of sarcasm.

He muttered to himself that Qin Huairu was a waste, lazy and gluttonous.

Seeing them come back, the two changed their attitudes and became good kids.

Zhang Kaiwu looked at them with a smile.

Not bad!

There really was no fight!

Several people hurriedly cleaned up the house next door for my sister-in-law and helped to fumigate the mosquitoes.

I used the leftover gauze to paste the windows for her.

There was no shortage of supplies at home, and I quickly prepared a set of bedding for my sister-in-law.

The young lady prepared clothes for her sister-in-law and took her to wash up with a heavy heart.

Verify it.

Zhang Kaiwu took Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi into the kitchen to make lunch.

Today, his sister-in-law is here, and he plans to cook five dishes and a soup.

Welcome her.

...............

He looked at Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi, who were fighting even while preparing the side dishes.

Even pinching a scallion would make you exchange glances secretly. I had been planning to persuade her in the evening.

The vegetables have been picked and washed, and the preparations are complete.

Qin Huairu squatted down with a smile and demonstrated her drinking skills.

He looked at Liang Ladi provocatively.

Liang Ladi glared at him, then ran over angrily and started learning clumsily.

It was too hot in the kitchen.

The two of them were arguing with each other, neither of them willing to give in.

Zhang Kaiwu was busy cooking when he had time.

He also held two small walnuts in his hands to encourage Liang Ladi to study.

Struggle is also a kind of beauty.

It's also a kind of fun, and you can see that they are enjoying this kind of fun.

Zhang Kaiwu pretended not to know that the two of them were fighting, and suddenly thought, this is not bad! ?

Let them fight.

It is not good for a family to be too harmonious. Only with struggle can there be progress.

The catfish effect is a positive effect, isn’t it?
If a fight breaks out in the future, we’ll talk about it later.

Not likely!
Qin Huairu should know her own limitations and know that she cannot beat Liang Ladi in a fistfight.

Her strategy is to use softness to overcome hardness.

…………

After washing up.

The young lady has seen clearly that her sister is indeed the same as herself.

Poor sister!

The young lady whispered to her:

"Pandi! Be careful. Since your brother-in-law has asked you to stay and play with him, he will definitely think of a way for you. Don't seduce Kai Wu to sleep with you, or you will hurt him."

My sister-in-law said shyly:

"Sister! What are you talking about? How could I be like that!?"

"My brother-in-law pinched me a lot this afternoon, and he acted so confidently. It pissed me off."

She pointed to her hips and breasts.

The young lady said seriously:

"Kaiwu isn't that kind of person. I guess you seduced him!?"

The sister-in-law looked at her in surprise, with a look of aggrieved expression.

I never thought that my sister, whom I have loved the most since childhood, would speak like this!

The young lady looked at her expression, it seemed like it was real! ?
But that’s not Kaiwu’s fault.

She continued seriously:

"As a brother-in-law, he just likes to tease his sister-in-law. He was just joking with you. It's no big deal to pinch him a few times. It won't cost you a piece of meat. You just need to be careful and don't tempt him."

"I'll discuss the matter of beating the tiger with Kaiwu. If there's a chance to get the heart's blood, I'll ask him to think of a way for you."

"Kaiwu really wants your body, remember to hold on to your belt tightly, protect him, and don't hurt him."

Hearing that her brother-in-law intended to give her the Tiger's Heart Blood, the sister-in-law felt much more relieved.

Hearing her sister say that she wanted to protect her brother-in-law, the sister-in-law asked shyly:

"Sister! I get it. What if my brother-in-law uses force?"

The young lady laughed and mocked her and said:

"You are dreaming! Kaiwu is not that kind of person. If this is the case, then it must be your fault."

"When I was with him, he was always polite on so many occasions."

"Kaiwu is just teasing you with his sweet words. He doesn't have any bad intentions."

The sister-in-law was surprised: "..."

Do I have bad intentions?

The young lady said with a smile:
"You've always liked snatching the same things from me since you were little. Don't think I've forgotten."

"If Kaiwu wants you, that's your blessing, I have no objection. If he doesn't want you, you can't take the initiative to seduce him."

"To put it bluntly, I'm asking you to go up and give it a try. Do you think you can seduce him?!"

The sister-in-law said aggrievedly:

"I know, sister! I know everything."

The young lady said with a smile:

"Let's go! Kaiwu's cooking is delicious, you are in for a treat."

...............

A group of people happily set up their dishes and started to eat lunch.

Zhang Kaiwu watched his sister-in-law change into new clothes and dress up beautifully, becoming even more beautiful.

There was also a wronged expression on my sister-in-law's face. I guess she went to complain.

Instead, he was scolded by the young lady! ?

Considering the girl's personality, it's really possible.

He smiled and pulled his sister-in-law to sit next to him, saying:

"Young lady! Why are you fighting with your sister? Come sit down quickly, sit with your brother-in-law, and have a good time."

"You are so wronged. Tell your brother-in-law how she bullied you and let him teach her a lesson."

The young lady said with a smile:
"Kaiwu! Don't spoil her. She's going to get a bad temper."

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"It's okay! With so many sisters, it's rare to have a sister-in-law. If I don't spoil her, who will? "

Young lady, give him a wink and just wait for him.

After eating for a while, my sister-in-law forgot about her grievances.

Just like what her sister said.

It's really delicious. Three meat dishes, two vegetable dishes and a soup.

Except for Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi bulging their eyes from time to time, everything else was very harmonious.

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and picked up some food for everyone, and his sister-in-law picked up more food.

He also kept persuading Liang Ladi to eat more and take good care of her health.

Let Qin Huairu eat more steamed buns and not just eat vegetables, which is bad for her health.

Zhou Pandi also adapted to the dining atmosphere of the Zhang family. It was her first time to eat at the table.

The rules for dining at the old scholar's house are strict, and only the old scholar can sit at the table.

Even if it was just a bowl of wild vegetable porridge, the mother and daughter would drink it in the kitchen.

My brother-in-law cooks delicious food and the steamed buns he makes are also delicious.

Except that her brother-in-law didn't have time to care for her body and was a little shy, everything else was fine.

...............

After lunch, Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi went to wash the dishes with their eyes wide open.

Zhang Kaiwu pulled his sister-in-law to sit together, holding a cigarette in his mouth and talking to the young lady.

My sister-in-law ate snacks and nibbled on crispy candies shyly.

He knew the young lady's worries and persuaded her with a smile:
"Don't worry, young lady. I won't go up the mountain to hunt tigers by myself."

"I will also keep an eye on Pan Di's case. If anyone kills a tiger, I will spend money to get some blood."

"It's just a payment for the job, why are you looking so sad!?"

The young lady felt much more relieved and said with a smile:
"Kaiwu, just know it. Don't take risks for this girl. It's not worth it."

"She can't live here for nothing, otherwise how can the sisters be fair? Just treat her like a maid and let her do some work."

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and said gently:
"It's so rare to have a sister-in-law, how could I let her do those things."

The young lady said seriously:

"It has to be this way, otherwise Liang Ladi's sisters and others will come, or the relatives of other sisters will come. If you treat Pan Di like this, it will be very unfair to the other sisters."

"Pandi! Hurry up and thank your brother-in-law!"

Zhou Pandi put down the candy and said with a smile:

"Brother-in-law! Thank you! I will help you with any family matters in the future."

Zhang Kaiwu laughed and pinched his sister-in-law's little face.

Said to the young lady:

"That's fine too. You've really thought it through, young lady. It's justified."

Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi finished washing the dishes and came over together.

A few people ate snacks and candies together, chatting and bragging.

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and asked:

"Lady sister! What do you want to bring back tomorrow?"

Liang Ladi blushed and persuaded him:
"Brother Kaiwu! They took so much money from you, why are you bringing them anything?"

"My two elder sisters came back to visit us, but they didn't even get a bite of the wild vegetable porridge."

Zhang Kaiwu asked in surprise:

"How can Liangjia Village be so close? It only takes a few minutes to get there by bike. If you don't bring anything back, will you never walk around in the future?"

Qin Huairu rarely helped Liang Ladi and said:
"A daughter who has been married off is like water that has been poured out, and you can never get it back!"

“Brother Kaiwu! My home is just behind the yard, and I didn’t go back to play.”

Zhang Kaiwu glared at her and said, "Just forget it."

You don't like the food at Qin's mother's house, so you never go back. Are you afraid of getting beaten? ?
One day I’ll send you back and beat you up!
The young lady said with a smile:
"Kaiwu! What's so strange about this? When we women get married, we belong to the man's family."

"Even if I go back, I won't be welcomed at all. If I eat one less mouthful of wild vegetable porridge from my mother's house, it's still a mouthful saved."

What the young lady said is very good.

Zhang Kaiwu thought about it and realized that it was true.

Food is too precious.

Nowadays, many people who go back to their parents’ home cannot even have a bite of wild vegetable porridge.

Too normal.

In the plot, Liang Ladi went back to her parents' home but didn't get any food and returned with an empty stomach.

Qin Huairu didn't dare go back to her parents' home because she was afraid of being bullied by both sides.

It was a time of chaos and disorder.

The reason, after all, is just for a bite of food.

Even Qin Huairu's sister-in-law is from Liangjia Village, and she never goes back to her parents' home.

The young lady went back to her parents' home today, but didn't get any food.

In an age when people can barely make ends meet, visiting relatives is not popular.

Nowadays, when relatives come to visit, we always entertain them with a sour face.

Zhang Kaiwu thought about it and advised Liang Ladi:

"I'll take you there tomorrow and we'll just sit for a while before we leave. At least bring a few pounds of cornmeal with you, so it'll be more presentable."

"It's their business if they don't care about face and don't care about food. You still have to save some face and behave like a human being."

Liang Ladi looked at him with emotion and said with a blushing face:
"Brother Kaiwu! Thank you. You are such a nice person."

…………

Take a nap at noon.

Zhang Kaiwu continued to practice the Su Nu Heart Sutra as usual and hugged the young lady while talking.

He lay there with a cigarette in his mouth, watching Qin Huairu and the others busying themselves.

The young lady said worriedly:

"Kaiwu! If things continue like this, how will my mother live in the future?"

"There is no male in the family. When she gets old and can't do anything, she won't even be able to have a bite of vegetable porridge."

Zhang Kaiwu asked doubtfully:

"Or you can give her some money, or take her over to take care of the child."

"Wait until a hundred years later, and then I'll see her off to her final resting place."

The young lady said with a smile:
"That won't do! How can I let a son-in-law like you pay for his funeral? Besides, you're just a second-hand, cheap son-in-law!"

Zhang Kaiwu pinched her angrily, and the young lady giggled.

He said, "You have a kind heart, but that's not a good thing."

He smiled and said:

"Let's talk about it in a few years! It's really not worth giving some money. I really have money now. How do they live now?"

The young lady smiled and said:

"I still rely on the old man to go to the market to write letters and earn a few copper coins. I teach a few children in the village and earn some corn flour. I do this and that."

"The old guy is going to be sick in a few years, and my mother has to take care of him!"

This is true!
It’s not bad.

Zhang Kaiwu thought about it and said comfortingly:

"Don't worry, young lady. If they can't make it one day, I will take them to live in Beiping."

He thought about it and continued:
"How about this, next time I go to Beiping City, I will buy a small yard next to it. It's not a big deal."

The young lady said with a smile:
"How much will it cost to settle them like that?"

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"Don't worry! When they die, the house will still be ours, and it will be given to the children to live in."

"How old is the old scholar? He looks very old!"

The young lady said with a smile:
"Kaiwu! You've thought it through. The old scholar is only fifty, and my mother is thirty-seven."

Zhang Kaiwu was surprised: "Ah!"

So young?
Looks so haggard and old!
I guess he’s starving because he’s out of oil?

Nowadays, people begin to age rapidly when they reach their thirties.

In fact, if you take good care of your body, you can slowly recover.

After thinking for a while, he smiled and said:

"They are not that old actually. Don't worry, young lady. I will find them a job in Peking next year. Let them work and earn money for us, otherwise I will not bury them in the future."

"My sister-in-law should also find a job and work hard. Let her work during the day and take care of our children at night to pay off our debts."

"The weather is cold, and I have to warm my brother-in-law's bed and cover his feet."

"Does the old scholar like to visit brothels? You should ask your mother-in-law to discipline him in the future."

The young lady was smiling earlier when she heard her father visiting a brothel.

The young lady punched him, hugged him with a smile, and her face was full of happiness.

The busy Qin Huairu heard this and said excitedly:

"Brother Kaiwu! I! I! I can work, too."

Although Liang Ladi didn't say anything, she looked at him excitedly.

It’s such a proud thing for a woman to be able to work!

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and said:

"Sister Huairu! What can you do? I can't arrange anything for you because of your sneaky and cunning nature."

"Sister Ladi! Don't worry, I will arrange a suitable job for you. You don't have to worry."

Liang Ladi looked at him gratefully, then lowered her head with a smile and went back to work.

Qin Huairu said excitedly:

"Kaiwu~Brother! Kaiwu~Brother!"

Zhang Kaiwu said unhappily:
"Isn't it good to enjoy life at home? What kind of job will you take? What will happen to the children?"

Qin Huairu said excitedly:

"Be a worker! I just want to experience the feeling of making money. Just thinking about it makes me excited!"

Come on!
Zhang Kaiwu asked tentatively:

"Go sell cloth to Sister Xueru, or work as a worker in the hospital. Which one do you choose?"

Qin Huairu thought about it excitedly and asked:

"I'm working as a worker in a hospital. Can I wear a white coat?"

Hahahaha!

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and said:

"Gray coat, cleaning, sweeping the floor eight hours a day."

Seeing him say this, Qin Huairu hugged him and said tenderly:

"Kaiwu~ bro! Can you just give me a better job!?"
