Qin Huairu was working overtime today, so she came back a little late. She did not see Xu Qiubai enter the courtyard house.
When she went back, she heard her mother-in-law Jia Zhangshi nagging that she might not have a lunch box to eat in the future. She immediately became anxious.
She didn't even bother to eat before she found Rainwater and asked for the details.
Rainwater was an idiot. She was brainless. She told Qin Huiru everything she knew except for the ten yuan.
The more Qin Huairu listened, the more uneasy she felt. This woman had three children. If she really clung onto Silly Zhu, she wouldn't even have a share of the old cabbages, let alone lunch boxes and cabbage hearts.
Qin Huairu looked at the woman in Silly Zhu's house and gritted her teeth in hatred. It was useless to argue with her directly since she had brought her family with her. She was so poor that she had to beg for food. Now that Silly Zhu had taken them in, it was unrealistic to think that she would back out with a few words.
This kind of woman was different from Ran Qiuye, who cared about her face. He might not be able to gain much from a head-on confrontation with her.
It was better to discuss it with an elder first.
Qin Huairu had heard that First Uncle was going to hold a meeting tomorrow to oppose this woman's move in. She would definitely stand on First Uncle's side.
Who was knocking on the door?
"Cuilian, lower your voice."
"It's Qin Huairu! Quickly put on your clothes and go out to take a look."
"Okay, then wait a moment."
First Uncle swiftly put on his cotton pants and opened the door for Qin Huiru.
"What…what's the matter?”
First Uncle had just finished his exercise and his breathing was still unstable.
"You're already asleep. It's so early. I want to ask if Silly Zhu brought back a woman today.”
As someone who had been through this before, Qin Huairu could already smell something in the air. At this moment, she felt rather awkward.
"Not only a woman, but also three children. They're all as big as sticks!”First Uncle poured a glass of water for Qin Huiru. He was eager to find allies to gang up on Silly Zhu.
"I heard that those three children beg on the streets every day. If this were to come to our courtyard, would the impact be bad?”Qin Huairu said calmly.
"Of course! How many years has it been in our courtyard? There hasn't been a single case of petty theft. With so many people here, every household had to be locked.”
First Uncle sighed. Although only Silly Pillar didn't lock the door.
"Yeah, and she's in Silly Pillar's room now. This man and woman are alone. Don't cause any trouble.”
She asked the stick to steal Silly Zhu's food, but that wasn't stealing.
That was equivalent to taking something from his family.
"The most troublesome thing now is the old lady. The old lady has already promised Silly Zhu to let that woman and the child stay in the inner room! The old lady was confused and just wanted to find someone to accompany her to relieve her boredom.”
"Stay in the old lady's room?" When Qin Huairu heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief. As long as she did not live with Silly Zhu, she still had a chance.
"Yeah, if it really doesn't work, I'll go look for Director Wang tomorrow. Our hospital is a civilized compound, so the streets shouldn't ignore it.”
The first uncle thought about it and thought that this was the only way to make the four of them move out completely.
"Yes, there will be a general meeting of the entire hospital tomorrow. Let Director Wang participate as well. Everyone will vote together, and the minority will obey the majority. We have to vote for her even if we have to."
Qin Huairu finally heaved a sigh of relief. It was still a great idea.
"Then tomorrow, you can ask everyone in the courtyard for their opinions and explain the truth to everyone. That…I…Our courtyard has always been fair and just in handling matters.”
First Uncle spoke with a sense of justice.
"Don't worry, I'll do it tomorrow. It's all thanks to First Uncle that our Siheyuan has a backbone. Otherwise, our family would be bullied every day.”
Qin Huairu did not dare to drink the cup of water that First Uncle had poured for her. After all, First Uncle hadn't washed his hands.
"If it weren't for you, your family wouldn't be able to survive until now. There's an old man at the top, a young man at the bottom, and another child in your stomach. It's not easy. Here, there's still half a bowl of pork ribs here. Take it back and give it to the children. The bowl belongs to Shazhu. After you're done, send it to the kitchen.”
First Uncle's move was amazing. It was not to offer Buddha flowers or kill people with a borrowed knife. It was to use your ribs to rope in the people who were going to deal with you!
I'm trying my best to persuade you to turn over a new leaf and return to our righteous family.
"Thank you so much, First Uncle. It's you who has been helping our family. You go ahead with your work.”Qin Huairu twisted her large cotton pants and happily went home with half a bowl of pork ribs.
What do you mean I'm busy? Did his mother hear him?
The first uncle glanced at the big cotton-padded trousers, closed the door silently, and got busy again.
…………
Tonight's night was quiet. Occasionally, a few snowflakes would float in the air.
As soon as it landed, it turned into water before it could struggle.
"It's getting late. Let's go over first. I'll wake the child up.”
Xu Qiubai's face was a little hot. She had never sat face to face with a man like this at night.
"Stop shouting. The children are all asleep. I'll carry them over. It seems to be snowing outside. Take some clothes and cover the children's heads.”
Xu Qiubai put on He Yuzhu's coat and nodded. It had been a long day. He wondered if the old lady was an easy person to get along with.
