In the middle court.
He Yuzhu returned to his room amidst the smiles and compliments of the people in the courtyard.
The room was filled with the fragrance of chicken. It was especially alluring.
When the door opened, a fragrance immediately spread throughout the entire courtyard.
The adults were intoxicated by the fragrance of the chicken, while the children were drooling on the windowsill.
"Don't be anxious. In another ten days, you idiots…Uncle Zhu Zi will cook chicken for you.”
When the children heard the adults 'words, their expressions became even more yearning. They wished that it would be ten days later in an instant.
At this moment, Qin Huairu's courtyard was filled with gloomy clouds.
Qin Huairu's mother-in-law, Jia Zhangshi, and the stick meme and his two younger sisters were sitting at the dining table and eating. Along the way, Jia Zhangshi would lecture the stick meme from time to time.
The stick meme didn't take Jia Zhangshi's words seriously at all. Every time Jia Zhangshi lectured him, he would curl his lips, completely unconcerned.
Although Jia Zhang-shi said so, she still doted on this grandson from the bottom of her heart.
The porridge in the pot and the steamed buns on the table were all stuffed into the bowl.
There wasn't much to eat at night, and almost half of it went into the bowl.
The two younger sisters drank half a bowl of gruel and chewed half a coarse grain bun in their hands.
Qin Huairu stood at the door, a worried look on her face.
Four yuan. With her family's current situation, how could she fork out four yuan for free?
Four yuan meant that her family would not be able to eat for a few days.
Although she would save three yuan for her mother-in-law every month, Jia Zhangshi would also secretly save this money.
However, she was unwilling to touch her mother-in-law's money!
This was what she and her mother-in-law were silently thinking. When her mother-in-law was old, who would she leave this money to?
It was definitely for his only grandson!
If she gave her mother-in-law three yuan every month, her family's life would be a little bleak. She would have an excuse to look for Silly Zhu from time to time to help out.
All these years, it was just that this time
When He Yushui returned from work and walked to the middle court, he saw Qin Huiru standing there with a worried expression.
"Sister Qin, what's wrong?"
He Yushui asked with concern.
Qin Huairu turned around, the worry on her face deepening.
A sense of joy surged in her heart. Who had she waited here for so long?
It was He Yuzhu's sister, He Yushui.
He Yuzhu closed the door as soon as she returned to her room. She couldn't even pass a message to him.
"Sister Yu Shui, why do you think my life is so bitter?”
Qin Huairu was about to cry as she spoke, but He Yushui hurriedly held her back.
Qin Huairu said with a pitiful expression,"
"Today, he stole Xu Damao's chicken and ate it. The child is still young and doesn't know anything.”
"But Xu Damao wants me to pay him four yuan.”
"You know how your Sister Qin's family is. Where do you expect her to get four yuan from?”
After hearing Qin Huiru's words, He Yushui finally understood what had happened in the courtyard today.
She was also very surprised. Initially, the stick was only stealing food from his brother's house. She did not expect to steal Xu Damao's chicken today.
However, looking at Qin Huiru's pitiful appearance, there were some words that He Yushui did not say out loud.
"Sister Qin, don't panic about this. Don't be sad and ruin your health.”
"I'll go back and tell my brother. My brother will definitely pay you the four yuan first.”
He Yushui comforted him. She knew about Qin Huiru and his brother.
In the past, when Qin Huairu's family encountered such a difficult year, his brother would pay to make up for it.
After saying that, He Yushui rushed to He Yuzhu's room to tell his brother about this.
When Qin Huiru saw He Yushui's departing figure, a hint of joy flashed across her face.
Then, he seemed to have thought of something.
"Yu Shui, tell your brother that my cousin will be coming over from the countryside tomorrow.”
"Alright!"
He Yushui waved his hand behind him. He believed that his brother would be very happy to hear this news.
Qin Huairu then walked back to her room in satisfaction.
"Pa!"
He Yuzhu was pouring the last mouthful of chicken soup into the basin when the door was pushed open.
"Brother, I'm back!"
A young and beautiful girl appeared in front of He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu recognized the girl's face at a glance. She was his only blood relative in this world.
"Got it. Hurry up and close the door. I made you chicken soup today.”
As He Yuzhu spoke, she opened a bottle of white wine and poured it into a glass. She took a sip and tasted the fragrant chicken.
That was one word, beautiful!
He Yushui smelled the fragrance in the basin and could not hold it in anymore.
She placed her bag on the bed, moved a stool, and sat down.
A mouthful of chicken and a mouthful of soup.
He Yushui felt that this world was blessed.
"Brother, you're the best!"
"That's right. I'm the most perfect man in the world.”
He Yuzhu said confidently.
He Yushui took a bite of the chicken and then seemed to have thought of something. He said,
"Brother, I bumped into Sister Qin in the courtyard just now.”
"Oh."
He Yuzhu replied lightly.
"Sister Qin said that Bang Tien stole Xu Damao's chicken. Xu Damao wants to compensate him. He wants to compensate him with four yuan.”
"Brother, you know how Sister Qin's family is. How can she afford four yuan?”
"Although stealing Xu Damao's chicken is wrong, Xu Damao's actions are too much.”
"Yes."
He Yuzhu continued to eat chicken and drink wine as he casually responded.
"Brother, Sister Qin also said that she would introduce you to her cousin from the countryside tomorrow.”
"Oh, I see."
He Yuzhu even picked up a piece of chicken and placed it in He Yushui's bowl, as if he did not take He Yushui's words to heart at all.
He Yushui was a little surprised.
What was wrong with her brother today? Why did he not care about Qin Huairu's matters at all?
