Siheyuan: The Final Winner

  Chapter 40 The Jia family ran out of food, Qin Huairu came to the door

  It was late, and everyone left.

  Jiang Pingan took the melon seeds from Lou Xiaoe, thanked her, and put them in his mouth happily.

  Xu Damao on the side was trembling with anger.

   "Lou Xiao'e, who is your man? Why do you care about Jiang Ping'an in everything?"

  Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes, and said angrily: "This melon seed is safe, what's wrong if I give it to him?"

   "That's right, Xu Damao, you are too unreasonable." Jiang Ping'an chimed in.

   "I'm unreasonable?" Xu Damao's eyes widened, his nostrils were blowing out of anger, he picked up two benches and left.

   At the same time, he yelled at Lou Xiaoe: "Why are you still standing here? Do you want to move to Jiang Ping'an's house?"

   "Xu Damao, don't provoke me, I will move to Ping'an's house if you are in a hurry!" Lou Xiao'e stared, raised her head and chest.

  Xu Damao was about to start scolding, but Yi Zhonghai, who hadn't gone far, turned his head and said loudly:

   "Xu Damao, what are you arguing about? Do you want to hold another meeting for you?"

  Xu Damao's expression froze, he glared at Jiang Ping'an, gritted his teeth, turned and left.

  Lou Xiaoe pursed her lips, snorted coldly, turned her head and smiled at Jiang Ping'an, "Don't be angry, he's unreasonable."

   "Sister Xiao'e, don't worry." Jiang Ping'an said with a smile.

   "It's not that you don't know, I'm famous for being kind and generous, and I don't have the same knowledge as him."

  Lou Xiao'e smiled sweetly, and said, "I know you are sensible, unlike Xu Damao who has a small belly."

   "Sister Xiao'e still understands me." Jiang Ping'an nodded, blinked, and said:

   "It's getting late, sister Xiao'e, go back and rest early!"

  Lou Xiaoe smiled slightly, winked at him, and said softly, "Okay, then you should go to bed earlier."

  Jiang Ping'an returned to the front yard and carried the bicycle into the house.

   After turning on the light and turning on the radio, Jiang Ping'an let out a long breath.

  I don't want to start a fire today.

  So he took a briquette, went next door to change the boiling water, washed his face and feet, and put it in a salt water bottle.

  Jia's family.

  Both Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu sat on the kang, sulking.

  Qin Huairu picked up three wowotou from the pot and brought them over, but was snatched away by the quick-witted stick.

   Mrs. Jia Zhang raised his head, looked at the two buns on the plate, frowned and asked, "Is there any more food?"

   "Well, these two corn buns are the only five catties of stick noodles I bought from my mother's house." Qin Huairu nodded.

   Mrs. Jia Zhang thought for a while, and said: "The cooking will be over tomorrow, and we must find ways to borrow some food tonight."

   "Where can I borrow it? Now every household is short of food, I'm afraid it will not be so easy to borrow." Qin Huairu sighed.

   Jia Zhang pondered for a moment, and said, "Where's Jiang Ping'an?"

   "He's a steel mill buyer, so he should have a way to get food, right?"

  Jia Dongxu shook his head and said, "Even if he can get food, he probably won't lend it to us."

   "This kid is too cunning, very cautious."

   "That's true." Jia Zhang nodded.

   After thinking for a moment, she suddenly looked up at Qin Huairu and asked, "By the way, isn't he from the same commune as you?"

   "Fellows in the village, you should talk about affection, right? Why don't you go and find out, Huairu?"

  Qin Huairu bit her lip, frowned and said: "I belong to the same commune with him, but we don't have much contact with each other at ordinary times!"

   "I didn't have any contacts before, but now I can!" Jia Zhang said a little impatiently.

   "You don't want to watch our family starve to death, do you?"

  Jia Dongxu echoed: "That is, you belong to a commune, so you should be easy to talk to."

  Qin Huairu hesitated and said, "But men and women are different."

   "Just like Sha Zhu, Jiang Ping'an is also a bachelor. On this big night..."

  Ms. Jia Zhang interrupted her with a wave of her hand, and said angrily, "How can Shazhu compare with Jiang Ping'an?"

   "Although Jiang Ping'an is a villain, his reputation is still good, and his mass base is also good."

   "How else would Xu Damao dare to ask Lou Xiaoe to invite him to dinner?"

   "Otherwise Shazhu dares to ask He Yushui to do his laundry for him?"

   "Even Yan Pugui can rest assured that Yan Jiedi can help him wash his clothes."

   "What does this mean? It means that the kid is still able to keep abreast of men and women."

   "Go ahead, go early and return early, and borrow more food. If you really can't borrow it, we can buy it at a high price!"

  Qin Huairu hesitated, looking like he didn't want to go to Jiang Pingan's house.

   But the more she is like this, the more relieved Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu are.

   "Hurry up, Jiang Ping'an is not a wealthy wolf, what are you afraid of?" Jia Zhang urged.

  Qin Huairu bit her lip, looked at Jia Dongxu, and discussed: "Why don't Dongxu go with me?"

   "You can go by yourself. I don't deal with him very much. After you go, keep the bad things."

  Jia Dongxu brought over the steamed buns on the plate, one for himself and one for Jia Zhang.

  Qin Huairu's pupils shrank, her heart was cold, she nodded silently, turned and walked out the door.

  Walking into the yard, I ran into the big mom who was coming back from the bathroom.

  The first mother saw that Qin Huairu's face was not right, and she cared:

   "Huairu, where are you going this evening?"

  Qin Huairu sighed, with a depressed face, replied:

   "The family ran out of food, and my mother-in-law asked me to go to Jiang Ping'an to see if he had a way to get food."

  The first mother shook her head and said, "I advise you not to look for Ping An."

   "He is extremely cautious about speculation. Ninety-nine out of ten times you will return without success."

  Qin Huairu nodded and said, "I know too."

   "But my mother-in-law said that I belong to the same commune with Jiang Pingan, and we are fellow villagers. Maybe he will talk about our relationship."

  The first mother shook her head and smiled, "Ms. Jia Zhang is just fantastic!"

   "What happened to a commune? We all belong to the same compound!"

   "Have you ever seen Ping An buy food for others?"

   "No? I advise you to go back and let Jia Dongxu find a way."

   "It's so late at night, he doesn't show up as a big man, and you, a woman, come out, what kind of talk!"

  Qin Huairu gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "Thank you aunt, but I still want to ask Jiang Ping'an."

  The aunt was speechless, waved her hand and said: "Since you don't listen to the persuasion, you will know whether what I said is right or wrong if you hit a wall."

   After finishing speaking, she turned and left.

  Qin Huairu watched the aunt walk away, and glanced back at the window indiscriminately.

   Found Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu peeking at the corner.

   "What you say sounds good, but you still can't believe me." Qin Huairu pursed her lips secretly, thinking.

  She didn't care about Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu either.

   She didn't eat tonight, she was feeding the child, and she felt panicked when she didn't eat at night.

  Even if Jia Zhang didn't let her go to Jiang Ping'an, she would go by herself at night.

   Anyway, Jiang Ping'an took advantage of it, and it would not be a loss to go to his place for a full meal.

  It would be even better if we could bring back some food.

   Stepping to the front yard, Qin Huairu stopped.

   Waited for a minute, and found that Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu did not follow.

  This shows that the two of them are really at ease with Jiang Ping'an, otherwise they would have followed.

   "What's this called!" Qin Huairu couldn't laugh or cry, and walked to Jiang Ping'an's house.
