The few of them had a mouthful of bone soup and a mouthful of meat. They could be considered to be addicted.
He Yuzhu also had the illusion that he was in a self-service restaurant, eating a big bone stick that cost 40 yuan each.
"First Master, I have something to discuss with you. I plan to start a small business recently. I can't get a good wife with just this monthly salary.”
He Yuzhu poured another pot of wine for the old man. Fortunately, he didn't share it with the neighbors. The few of them ate more than half of the full pot.
"Small business? That's speculation. You're still stable, right? Your salary isn't low anymore. There's no need to take risks.”
"What do you mean by a good wife? A good daughter-in-law is one who can lead a stable life. I think Qin Huiru is not bad. She looks good, is filial, and knows how to lead a good life.”
After drinking some wine, First Uncle's spirits were lifted as well. He started to talk non-stop about Qin Huairu's reputation.
"That won't do. I have to find a better grandson!”The deaf old lady was not deaf at all. She just liked to pretend to be deaf when she heard things that she did not like to hear.
"I think Sister Qin is not bad. We've been relying on her for the past few years.”Rainwater was only 13 years old, and she had a mouthful of oil on her bones.
"What do you know? A sewing auntie is better than her. Wouldn't it be better for me to find an auntie?”
He Yuzhu was really speechless at this sister of his. She could not shut her mouth even if she gnawed on bones.
"Don't talk nonsense. Zhu Zi, do you have someone in mind? Why are you in such a hurry to earn money?" First Uncle treated He Yuzhu like his own son. He could not count on anyone in this courtyard. According to the Deaf Old Lady, the two of them would have to rely on the pillar to support them in their old age.
"There are a few candidates…But now…Look at this big family here, how can I not care if something happens to anyone in the future? Can I not earn money?"
He Yuzhu had made it very clear that the First Uncle, the First Aunt, the Deaf Old Lady, and He Yushui would all have to rely on him in the future.
"How much?" When First Master heard Zhu Zi's words, he understood. He Yuzhu would take care of the retirement!
However, if He Yuzhu found an unreliable wife, there would still be variables. That was why he was optimistic about Qin Huiru. If Zhu Zi married Qin Huiru, the two of them would be safe.
"If you can trust me, I have a deal that will definitely make you money. Did you see that? This pair of chairs was made of rosewood, an antique from the Ming Dynasty! He had just been pulled over today! Do you know how much this thing will be worth in the future?”
He Yuzhu pointed at the armchair beside him. He didn't expect First Uncle to understand much, but no one would be at ease if they didn't see the money.
"This chair is not bad." An old man walked over and carefully examined the pair of yellow rosewood armchairs.
"I bought it for 30 yuan. I can sell it for at least 200 yuan!”He Yuzhu was telling the truth. In order to convince First Uncle to pay, he could not hide everything.
"A pair of chairs can be sold for 200 yuan? Alright, I'll find someone who knows better tomorrow to take a look. If it's really worth 200, I'll look for you then!”
First Uncle was a steady person. Zhu Zi was still young, only in his early twenties. If he handed over the money to him, he would suffer a huge loss if he was cheated.
"Oh, I was wondering why it smelled so good. I feel like I'm eating meat and bones.”A delicate cry was heard.
After Qin Huiru got off work today, her mother-in-law, Jia Zhangshi, had told her that Silly Zhu was cooking a big bone soup today and had asked her to come over to ask for some. At first, she refused to come, but in the end, she could not resist and came over with a small basin that her mother-in-law had given her.
Although they had met with a rebuff from Silly Zhu in the morning, the two of them seemed to have eased up a lot when they were getting lunch.
He did not stop his mother-in-law from snatching his Jing sauce shredded pork. Now that she wanted some bone soup, he could be considered to have lowered his status and given Silly Zhu a way out. It was considered as reconciliation.
"Awesome Mom, come and sit. I'm full. I'll send the old lady back to her room first.”A middle-aged woman gave up her seat.
He Yuzhu did not look Qin Huiru in the eye and instead, he shared the rest of the white wine bottle evenly with the old man.
"I'm full too. Sister Qin, take a seat. I'm going back to my room to do my homework.”He Yushui said, pretending to be smart.
"Alright, you two chat. I'll go back too. Zhu Zi, I'll give you a letter tomorrow.”An elder downed the wine in his glass and sent the old lady out with an auntie.
In an instant, only He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu were left in the originally lively room. When He Yushui went out, she pretended to be smart and closed the door.
The air instantly froze.
"Silly Zhu, let's forget about what happened this morning. Don't be angry with my mother-in-law. She's just like that. I'll buy you a bottle of wine later, okay?”
"You still call me Silly Zhu! You remember to eat but not to fight, you bitch!" He Yuzhu raised his head and glared at the pretty little wife in front of him. He really wanted to teach her a lesson.
Qin Huairu smiled when she saw how angry Silly Zhu was. She thought that she had Silly Zhu in her grasp. He took out a small basin and wanted to pack the remaining bones back.
"Sigh…What are you doing? This was daylight robbery! Why is your family all like this?"
He Yuzhu made up her mind not to help her family anymore. Her family was full of ingrates.
"I was wrong. I'll call you Zhu Zi in the future!”Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Silly Zhu, moved to his side, and nudged Silly Zhu's thigh with her body.
"I told you this morning that it's okay to eat, but you have to pay a price. What, have you thought it through?”He Yuzhu scanned Qin Huiru's figure from head to toe and sneered.
He had always felt that Qin Huairu would not be so frivolous as to provoke her with these words and make her back off.
"How dare you! I want to see if you're the same as those stinky men!”
Qin Huairu stopped what she was doing and stared straight at He Yuzhu. Her peach blossom eyes were filled with tears of grievance. She was not faking it. She had a hard life. For the sake of food, she had to endure any grievances.
"Hmph, you think I don't dare?" He Yuzhu wrapped one arm around Qin Huairu's waist and grabbed her plump cotton pants.
"Aiya, you're hurting me! You stupid idiot!" Embarrassed and angry, Qin Huairu punched He Yuzhu's chest.
"Remember, you can eat whatever you want, but please make this bro comfortable first…Alright, take it away and clean up the table!”
He Yuzhu grabbed Qin Huairu's arm and gently pushed her back. Then, he stood up and brewed a pot of tea. He sat on the armchair and slowly drank it.
He wanted to set a rule for Qin Huairu's family. In the future, if they wanted food, they had to pay the corresponding labor!
Qin Huairu was furious! She didn't expect Silly Zhu to be such a person! He really dared to capture her! Looking at his cold expression, she really wanted to throw the basin at his face and walk away, never to talk to him again!
However, when she saw that there was still half a basin of spiced bones and half a basin of broth left, she hesitated!
This was such precious food! How happy would the children be if he brought it home for them to eat? The child needed calcium supplements. With his little salary, he probably could not even drink bone soup once a year.
It was better to let him touch her than to let those boors in the factory take advantage of her.
Qin Huairu's tears flowed down her cheeks. She raised her hand and wiped it with the sleeve of her cotton-padded jacket. Then, she quickly cleaned up the table and glared at He Yuzhu. Then, she carried the meat bones and broth home.
