Midnight.
The courtyard was brightly lit. The people living in this courtyard were all wearing clothes and holding small stools with tired faces, ready to eat melons.
To put it bluntly, sometimes it was too common for people to ignore things that had nothing to do with them. The only difference was that the center of the incident this time was Jiang Yuye and Qin Huairu's family.
Needless to say, Jiang Yuye was a promising young man from the Siheyuan and the technical backbone of the rolling mill. He was good at everything and was also a high-ranking official that the leaders were willing to promote.
As for Qin Huairu's family, they were just a pretty widow bringing her family along. They had the attitude of waiting to see what was going on. No one understood why First Uncle would deliberately wake them up in the middle of the night.
Yi Zhonghai sat in the middle, Liu Haizhong sat on the left, and Yan Bugui sat on the right. The rest sat on either side.
As for the middle part, it was definitely given to the main character of the incident, Jiang Yuye, and Qin Huairu's entire family. After all, this matter involved more trivial matters, so they had to ask in detail.
Seeing that everyone was here, Yi Zhonghai coughed and turned to look at Silly Zhu. He ordered,""Zhu Zi, get some hot water for everyone to drink. Don't catch a cold in the middle of the night.”
"Remember to add some ginger slices." Without waiting for Silly Pillar to reply, Third Master Yan Bugui also interrupted.
This person loved to take advantage of petty gains, and he was also quite petty. Therefore, it was quite good to take this opportunity to get one or two pieces of ginger for free. At least, it would not be a waste of time.
"Third Uncle, you're quite troublesome.”
He Yuzhu pouted. After all, Yan Bugui was still the third master of the Siheyuan. He did not deliberately talk back, or else they would fight.
He went to make water obediently. Liu Haizhong, on the other hand, was quite calculative. Jiang Yuye was a promising young man in the rolling mill and had occasionally helped him solve problems, so he had a good impression of Jiang Yuye.
At this moment, the Second Uncle looked around and whispered into Yi Zhonghai's ear,""Old Yi, what's going on? Is Little Jiang fighting with Qin Huairu's family?”
He had a plan in his mind. If Jiang Yuye was fine, he decided to protect him. This way, he could help him more in the rolling mill in the future.
"It's nothing serious. It's just that Qin Huairu's family got into a fight with Little Jiang in the middle of the night. After I saw it, I couldn't solve it, so I called everyone up for a meeting.”
Yi Zhonghai didn't elaborate on the details. After all, they were from the same courtyard, and it was good for everyone to have some dignity.
Otherwise, if they really fell out, not to mention the neighbors who would see each other all the time, just saying that they couldn't help each other in any way would go against his original intention.
"I see."
Second Uncle looked enlightened. Apparently, through the conversation, he had roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter."Little Jiang, tell me, what exactly happened?”
Almost everyone present was from the courtyard, and everyone was here, except for Silly Zhu who needed to boil water, but that was not a big deal.
Of course, this kind of meeting was a little like the criticism in the past. Everyone would ask questions at once. If they did it well, they would have no responsibility. If they did not do it well, they might even push the wall down.
Now that the second uncle had asked Jiang Yuye about it, it was obvious that he was trying to show his goodwill. Jiang Yuye naturally would not miss this opportunity. After all, he had to take responsibility for it, right?
"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that Sister Qin's family came to borrow money from me in the middle of the night. I still owe Brother He some money, so I told him about the situation because I was short of money.”
Jiang Yuye shrugged his shoulders with an innocent expression on his face. No one would want to make a big deal out of this. Only Qin Huairu would do something like this.
"It's true that we borrowed money, but we're relatives after all. Moreover, when you molested me just now, you said that you wanted to lend me 20 yuan.”
Qin Huairu's words were like a piece of paper. Even if she did not reason with him, she would still be able to make up for it. In any case, her family had seen everything just now. The old lady definitely could not expose her lie. As for her children, it was even more impossible.
She was pretty confident in her plan. She was determined to get the 20 yuan, or Jiang Yuye's reputation would be ruined.
"Aiya, damn. Not bad, Little Jiang. I didn't expect you to be interested in a widow.”
Xu Damao was from the backyard. Before Jiang Yuye came, he and Silly Zhu were already at odds. Now that Jiang Yuye and Silly Zhu were on good terms, he naturally couldn't stand it.
Therefore, Xu Damao felt that it was good to have the opportunity to make things difficult for Jiang Yuye at this time. After all, Jiang Yuye was more handsome than him. Most importantly, her salary was higher than his.
"That can't be. I don't think Brother Jiang is such a person.”He Yushui couldn't believe it. Jiang Yuye was such a promising young man. It would be too sad if he liked a widow.
Jiang Yuye wasn't Cao Cao. Everyone knew that Cao Cao was a good wife. Who would be a good wife in this era? Who was a fool? If they had the ability, who would find a widow to be their partner?
Everyone started to discuss the matter. With Xu Damao leading the way, everyone was discussing whether Jiang Yuye really liked the widow.
Qin Huairu was thick-skinned, but she couldn't take the gossip. Jiang Yuye, on the other hand, was calm and collected. Xu Damao had plotted against her, so she would teach him a lesson later.
"Alright, cut it out. Now, let's get down to business. Qin Huairu, you said that Little Jiang has something to do with you. Can you tell us what happened just now?”
