Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 34: Aunt Jingru, you don't want to fake your pregnancy
Time flies and soon it is past 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Since Li Dawei insisted that Li Guoqiang have a good rest, Li Guoqiang could only stay in the house and take a nap. Then he practiced the health-preserving breathing method five times and the True Five Animals Diagram ten times in the house and the courtyard respectively. In total, he gained 0.15 points of physical fitness, 0.1 points of strength, and 0.01 points of spirit.

In addition, after several times of practice, the experience of these two skills has increased by 20 points each, successfully bringing these two skills to the level of a junior worker.

现如今，他这两个技能的状态分别是养生呼吸法L2（6/100），真五禽图功L2（2/100）。

Although the gains from each practice session did not double as he had imagined, he found that the speed of practice was about one-fifth faster than before.

In this way, he will be able to save more time in the future to do other things and practice other skills.

However, the joy brought by the improvement of skills still could not cover up the anger that was boiling in his heart, and he had to find a way to vent it.

As he thought about it, in addition to the several methods he had thought of before, he suddenly came up with a good idea.

Aren't you Xu Damao planning to take advantage of our good sister? Then don't blame me for using my own methods to counterattack.

So, after receiving the reward from Jin Die, Li Guoqiang immediately made an excuse that he wanted to go to the toilet. In fact, he took advantage of the fact that the women in the yard were sewing shoe soles in the house, and quietly went to the backyard and knocked on the door of Xu Damao's house.

At this moment, Qin Jingru, who was cracking melon seeds and listening to the radio in the house, heard a knock on the door. She was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked towards the door with some confusion.

When she opened the door, she saw that the person knocking was Li Guoqiang and was instantly startled.

"What are you doing here? Xu Damao is not here. If you have anything to say, wait until he comes back!"

As she said that, she wanted to close the door, but then she was immediately stunned by what Li Guoqiang said.

"Aunt Jingru, you don't want Xu Damao to know about your fake pregnancy, right?"

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand what you are saying? If you dare to talk nonsense to me again, I will tear your stinky mouth apart!"

Qin Jingru reacted quickly, pretending to be angry and started scolding.

"Okay! Since you don't want to listen, I'll go tell the uncles and aunts in the courtyard. I believe they will be happy to hear how you asked your cousin to help you find someone to issue a fake pregnancy certificate."

Li Guoqiang raised the corner of his mouth, then spoke seriously.

After saying this, he immediately turned around and pretended to leave, but before he took half a step, his arm was tightly grasped by Qin Jingru.

"Hey, what are you doing? Didn't you say I was talking nonsense?"

Li Guoqiang was delighted and asked with some amusement.

"What do you want?"

Qin Jingru stared at Li Guoqiang's handsome face, then asked with gritted teeth.

She couldn't understand how Li Guoqiang knew about this.

Obviously, in this courtyard, the only people who really knew about this matter were her, Qin Huairu, Jia Zhangshi, and Sha Zhu, and she herself would definitely not be so stupid as to tell anyone.

Could it be that Jia Zhang sold her behind her back because she refused to support their family?

At this moment, Li Guoqiang didn't care what Qin Jingru was thinking. He looked at Qin Jingru's beautiful face, which was at the peak of her beauty, smiled and said softly, "Want to know? If you want to know, come find me in the grove behind the steel mill later."

After saying that, he violently shook off Qin Jingru's arm, then quickly turned and left, leaving Qin Jingru standing there in a daze with a gloomy look on her face.

She didn't know why Li Guoqiang wanted her to go out, but she knew that there would be no good things. Maybe Li Guoqiang wanted to trick her out and do something excessive to her.

She wanted to not go, but she was worried that Li Guoqiang would tell others about her fake pregnancy certificate. Based on her understanding of Xu Damao, she knew that if Xu Damao knew that she deliberately used fake pregnancy and miscarriage to deceive him, she would definitely not end up well, and might even be driven back to the countryside by Xu Damao.

For her, this was even more painful than killing her.

Then, she thought of asking Qin Huairu for help.

However, now she didn't even know whether Qin Huairu had leaked this matter on purpose, so how could she dare to ask Qin Huairu for help?
What's more, even if she asked Qin Huairu for help, she didn't think Qin Huairu could think of any good way to shut Li Guoqiang's mouth!
Finally, after much struggle and careful consideration, she decided to meet Li Guoqiang first.

After all, she grew up doing farm work in the countryside. She didn't believe that if she wanted to run away, Li Guoqiang's sickly body would not be able to do anything to her.

Soon, she went back to the house, tidied her clothes, then hurriedly left the courtyard and headed towards the grove behind the steel mill.

At this time, Li Guoqiang had already greeted Li Dawei. He made an excuse that he was going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things, and then went to the grove in advance to scout out a place that would be more suitable for doing business.

Perhaps God was helping him to deal with Xu Damao's grandson, for after a while he found several large rocks surrounding a big tree in the grove.

And between the big rock and the big tree, there happened to be an open space about one meter wide and two meters long. Three or two people could hide in it without worrying about being blown by the cold wind or being discovered accidentally.

After noting down the location, Li Guoqiang immediately ran to the edge of the grove, hid behind a bush and looked in the direction of the courtyard.

After waiting for a while, he saw Qin Jingru's mature and charming figure.

Then, he hurriedly observed the movements around him carefully. After making sure that no one was following him, he slowly walked out of the bushes, waved to Qin Jingru, and then quickly took her to the outside of the big rock that had been chosen earlier.

Qin Jingru saw Li Guoqiang stopped and didn't bother to observe the surrounding environment. She asked hurriedly: "Qiangzi, how did you know about that?"

Li Guoqiang smiled slightly when he heard this, then waved his hand and said softly, "Don't worry about how I know this. You just need to understand that I not only know about your fake pregnancy, but also that the person who helped you get a fake pregnancy certificate at the Sixth Hospital was Doctor Wang from the steel mill's medical office."

"As long as I tell this to others, I believe that with Xu Damao's ability, he can easily get the truth from Doctor Wang."

"By then, what will be your fate? I believe you will understand without me telling you."

"Now, all you need is for you to fulfill a small wish of mine and let me become a real man before I go to the countryside, and I can help you keep your mouth shut."

"How is it? This deal is a good deal, right?"

Having said that, he looked at Qin Jingru, whose face had turned very pale, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

"Can you change the conditions? Otherwise, I will give you money, a lot of money!"

Qin Jingru struggled in her heart for a long time, and then asked with a pitiful look on her face.

"No! This is just my one wish. If you don't agree, you can leave now!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang refused without even thinking.

Seeing his attitude, Qin Jingru bit her lip hard, struggled fiercely in her heart for a while, and finally nodded slightly and agreed.

"Yes! Just this once!"

Li Guoqiang ignored this and pointed directly at the big rock next to him.

Qin Jingru turned her head and saw the hidden space inside the big rock. She felt inexplicably relieved.

Soon, they walked in one after another.
