After He Yuchen left, Qin Huiru sneaked into the canteen from the back door. Silly Zhu was cooking. He glanced at Qin Huiru and ignored her.
"Hey, Silly Zhu, can you help me get a few catties of noodles? I really can't go on anymore." Qin Huairu tugged at Silly Zhu's leg and said in a low voice.
"Shun, wouldn't that be stealing? You want me to steal from the government? Wouldn't that make him a thief?" Silly Zhu said discontentedly. In this day and age, stealing from the government was a big deal. If they were caught, they would be punished lightly or fired directly.
Upon hearing that Silly Zhu was not going to help her, Qin Huairu's face immediately turned stern.""I really can't open the pot anymore. I just went to my man's workshop to look for Old Yang to exchange for next month's food stamps, but what about next month? I've been pushing it off for a month. When will it end? Also, because of that incident yesterday, Xu Damao grabbed me for money. How am I going to live like this?”
"That won't do. This is a matter of professional ethics. I can't steal.”Silly Zhu said righteously.
"Come on, you're usually so smooth.”Qin Huairu said unhappily.
"Don't talk nonsense. When have I ever stolen food? I took the leftovers from the factory manager's treat. That's what I should have taken. The factory manager approved it. Moreover, I haven't tasted those things myself. When have I not gone into your family's stomach? You still tell me this? Hurry up and leave. If you want to steal, go yourself. It's none of my business if you get caught.”
Qin Huairu's family's actions over the past two days, as well as his younger brother's analysis, made Silly Zhu see many things clearly. He could not continue to be so silly.。
Seeing that Silly Zhu was unmoved, Qin Huairu immediately leaned towards Silly Zhu. Then, he looked at Silly Zhu affectionately and said gently,""Silly Zhu, please help your sister.”
Seeing this, Silly Zhu hurriedly pushed Qin Huairu away and said righteously,""Qin Huairu, please have some self-respect. If word gets out that you're like this, how am I going to get a wife? We have to keep our distance in the future.”
Qin Huairu immediately burst into tears. With a sobbing tone, he said,""Silly Zhu, what do you mean? What's going on? If I can't cook, do I have to be bullied like this? I went to my men's workshop. Guo Dapeizi took advantage of me. I took two steamed buns. Xu Damao wanted to take advantage of me. I'm a widow. Do I have to be bullied just because I'm a widow?”
"No way, Qin Huairu. I saw it just now. Xu Damao was queuing up there, and you snuggled into his arms. Don't think I didn't see it. Didn't you make an appointment with him to go to the warehouse?”Silly Zhu was furious.
He had not mentioned Xu Damao earlier, but Qin Huiru was now saying that Xu Damao had taken advantage of her. Wasn't this twisting the truth? Even though Xu Damao was not a good person.
Qin Huairu didn't expect Silly Zhu to see what had just happened. She cried even louder and said,""What do you know? I'm a widow. I have to feed five people with my meager salary. How can it be easy for me? Even you are bullying me.”
"I trusted you, but I didn't expect you to do the same.”
Silly Zhu's heart wavered after hearing Qin Huairu cry. She said,""Fine, I'll buy you some noodles later, but stealing is absolutely not allowed. Don't cry, okay? If others see this, they'll think I did something to you.”
Hearing that Silly Zhu was going to buy her noodles, Qin Huairu's tears immediately stopped. She was like a tap, turning on and off at will. Her acting skills were way better than an Oscar winner's.
"You're still the best to me. I'll go back first.”Qin Huairu wiped away her tears and left immediately. She still had a smile on her face as she thought to herself,'It's only a matter of time before I settle Silly Zhu.'
If He Yuchen were to see this scene, she would definitely give her silly brother a few slaps. He had been completely crushed by Widow Qin.
He Yuchen had already returned to the infirmary. Ding Qiunan had been waiting for more than 20 minutes. When she saw He Yuchen return, she smiled.
"The food is getting cold. Hurry up and eat.”
"Come, try my brother's secret Dongpo Pork.”He Yuchen opened the lunchbox in her hand, and an alluring fragrance instantly filled the air.
Ding Qiunan's eyes lit up when she smelled the meat. She was surprised to see so much Dongpo pork in the lunchbox. In this era, it was already good enough to eat meat once or twice a month. With her salary, she would probably get a pound of meat a month, but the meat in He Yuchen's lunchbox was probably a pound.
"So much meat. Brother He, you must have spent a lot of money.”
"Try it first and see how it tastes.”He Yuchen said with a smile. To him, he had won ten tons of streaky pork from the lottery last time. He could eat it every day. In this era where supplies were scarce, he was a tycoon.
Ding Qiunan picked up a piece of Dongpo Pork and took a bite. The unique fragrance of streaky pork was really pleasant.
"I've never eaten such delicious Dongpo Pork. Brother He, your brother's cooking skills are so amazing.”Ding Qiunan sighed.
"My brother is the successor of the Tan family's dishes. His craftsmanship is indeed not bad, but the main thing about this dish is that the meat is good. You can't buy this quality of pork belly on the market.”He Yuchen said with a smile.
"Yes." Ding Qiunan nodded in agreement. This pork belly was indeed very different from the ones she had eaten before.
After the two of them finished eating, they still had some aftertaste. Ding Qiunan said,"Brother He, you treated me to a meal today. I'll treat you next time too, but it might have to wait until I get my salary.”
He Yuchen couldn't help but laugh when she heard that. She said,""Alright, then you can invite me after you get your salary.”
Ding Qiunan's eyes met He Yuchen's, and she blushed as she turned her head away shyly.
"You should familiarize yourself with the environment in the next two days. It will probably be the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. The dormitory is not far from the infirmary. If you need any help, let me know.”
"Yes, thank you, Brother He. Do you want to come to the infirmary tomorrow?”
"We'll see how it goes tomorrow. Maybe we'll come over at noon. There will be medicine to be sent over in the next two days. We still need to count and check it when the time comes, in case they send some defective products over.”He Yuchen said.
"Then I'll come over to help at noon tomorrow.”Ding Qiunan said.
"Okay, then I'll give you the backup key to the infirmary. If I come later, you can come in first. There's nothing here. I'll get some books later.”
The two of them chatted for a while more before He Yuchen prepared to go back.
Ding Qiunan returned to the dormitory and tidied up. She made the bed and lay on it. He Yuchen's handsome face kept flashing in her mind. What she didn't know was that whenever she thought of He Yuchen, a smile would unconsciously appear on her face. She even unconsciously tightened her legs.
If anyone who knew her saw this, they would definitely think that she had seen a ghost. This was because in the eyes of those who knew Ding Qiunan, Ding Qiunan was an icy beauty who always gave off a cold and detached aura.
On the other side, He Yuchen was riding her modified electric bicycle back to the courtyard house. She happened to see Third Master Yan Fugui holding a fishing rod and holding the bicycle. He was about to go out.
"Yo, Third Uncle, are you going fishing?”He Yuchen greeted him with a smile.
"Yeah, it's the weekend today. I was just about to go fishing at the moat. Did you just come back from the factory?”Yan Fugui was a little envious when he saw He Yuchen holding a brand-new bicycle and wearing a fashionable outfit.
He Yuchen was wearing a woolen trench coat and long leather boots. It was obvious that she was very expensive. The key was that she had a very exquisite and noble watch on her hand. Coupled with He Yuchen's tall figure, he gave off an imposing aura. However, in Yan Fugui's opinion, He Yuchen looked so handsome because she was wearing new clothes.
"Fishing at the moat? Are there any fish over there?" He Yuchen asked.
"Hehe, you don't know this. A few days ago, someone caught a big green carp that weighed more than ten kilograms by the moat. The fishing rod was almost broken.”Yan Fugui said," Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go first. If I'm late, there won't be any good seats."”
