Yan Jiekuang, who was beside him, was snoring. Yan Jiekuang couldn't sleep well either.
The bed was too small, and two people were squeezed together. The bed board was hard, and the bedding smelled a little musty.
He still missed the days before he transmigrated! But he couldn't go back.
Yan Jiekuang sighed. He felt like peeing, so he got up and put on his clothes and pants.
Outside the house, the latrine pit was just a few steps away.
After draining the water, Yan Jiekuang was about to go back to sleep when he realized that there seemed to be someone in the middle of the courtyard.
"It's so late at night, and there's still someone out in the middle of the courtyard?”Feeling a little strange, Yan Jiekuang also sneaked over.
Without a street lamp, it was pitch-black and could only rely on the little light from the moon and stars in the sky.
When they arrived at a corner of the courtyard, Yan Jiekuang saw that it was Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.
It seemed like Yi Zhonghai was secretly helping Qin Huiru.
Yi Zhonghai was not a good person either. He had asked Silly Zhu to help Qin Huiru many times, yet he was sneaking around in the middle of the night. However, Silly Zhu had asked for it, so there was no need to sympathize with him.
As for whether Yi Zhonghai had done anything dirty by helping Qin Huiru in the middle of the night, it was hard to say. Perhaps there was a shady deal, or perhaps Yi Zhonghai had no other intentions and simply did not want to cause a misunderstanding.
Qin Huairu was only a first-grade worker in the rolling mill. Her monthly salary was only 27.5 yuan. She had to support herself, her three children, and her mother-in-law. It was a huge burden. Yi Zhonghai might sympathize with her, or perhaps he was investing in her.
A middle-aged woman's health was not good, so she did not give birth to any children. Therefore, Yi Zhonghai was a poor family, and his retirement was his biggest problem. Qin Huairu was a good mother and daughter-in-law. She also had a great son, which made her worthy of Yi Zhonghai's investment.
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai placed five kilograms of noodles into Qin Huairu's hand. He held Qin Huairu's hand and whispered something to her. Yan Jiekuang pricked up his ears but did not hear a single word.
Yan Jiekuang thought for a moment and a cold smile appeared on his face.
"First Uncle has broken his shoes!"
Yan Jiekuang shouted.
Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu were shocked by Yan Jiekuang's sudden shout.
"It's Yan Jiekuang." Qin Huairu's expression was ugly.
"How did this little bastard see us?”Yi Zhonghai complained to himself. He was already very careful.
Yi Zhonghai wanted to go back to his room, but Jia Zhangshi came out with her clothes on.
He saw that Jia Zhang-shi wasn't even wearing shoes, and was barefooted.
"Yi Zhonghai, you shameless old man.”Seeing Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huiru in the courtyard, Jia Zhangshi started cursing.
"Mom, you misunderstood." Qin Huiru wanted to explain.
"Pa!"
Jia Zhangshi slapped Qin Huairu.
"You piece of sh * t, do you think you're worthy of Dongxu? The Jia family's face has been completely thrown away by you." Jia Zhangshi glared fiercely at Qin Huiru, wanting to skin her alive.
Covering her face, Qin Huairu cried out in grievance.
Yi Zhonghai couldn't escape and was pulled back by Jia Zhangshi.
At this moment, Qin Huairu's hatred for Yan Jiekuang had reached its maximum.
"Why didn't this Yan Jiekuang get struck by lightning?”Qin Huairu thought to herself.
Because of Yan Jiekuang's shout, everyone in the courtyard was startled awake.
Not long after, people arrived one by one.
Silly Zhu, who was opposite the Jia family, appeared first, followed by Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong.
"Who shouted that?"
"It seems to be Yan Jiekuang."
"It's so late at night."
"Old Master Yi has broken shoes? With Qin Huairu?"
……
Everyone was in an uproar. After all, First Uncle's character was too good. He was always willing to help others. Although First Uncle couldn't have children, he didn't divorce. He was still a level-eight fitter in the rolling mill and earned ninety-nine yuan a month.
No one dared to believe that the First Master had broken the shoes.
Now, everyone in the courtyard knew about it.
Yi Zhonghai's face turned ashen.
"Old Yi, did you have an affair with Qin Huairu?”Liu Haizhong asked.
To everyone, this was a big deal.
Looking at Yi Zhonghai, whose face was ashen, and Qin Huairu, who was holding 10 catties of noodles, many people were deep in thought.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I took ten catties of noodles to help the Jia family. After all, the Jia family's life was hard. In order to avoid misunderstanding, I only went over in the middle of the night.”Yi Zhonghai said.
"Everyone can trust First Uncle's character. This is all a misunderstanding. And Yan Jiekuang, you brat, you're just shouting nonsense when you don't understand the situation.”Silly Zhu believed in Yi Zhonghai.
"I saw an old man holding Widow Qin's hand. His mouth seemed to be touching her face.”Yan Jiekuang said seriously.
It was a fact that Yi Zhonghai was holding Qin Huiru's hand. The two of them were talking in a low voice and were very close to each other. In the middle of the night, it was not strange to see Yi Zhonghai's mouth touching Qin Huiru's face.
"It's late at night. You're wrong.”Yi Zhonghai's face darkened.
However, everyone looked at each other when they heard what Yan Jiekuang said.
Holding hands?
Mouth touching face?
According to what Yan Jiekuang said, things were not as simple as Yi Zhonghai said.
Silly Zhu was flabbergasted, his heart filled with doubt.
Yan Jiekuang didn't look like he was talking nonsense.
When he thought about how Yi Zhonghai had pulled Qin Huiru's hand and even touched her face, Silly Zhu felt terrible. He felt as if he had turned green.
"Everyone, don't listen to Yan Jiekuang's nonsense. It's nothing. First Master just saw that my family's life was hard and gave me some noodles.”Qin Huairu said.
"Old Yi, be honest." Liu Haizhong looked at Yi Zhonghai.
Liu Haizhong was the second master of this courtyard house. He had wanted to be the first master for a long time. This might be a chance.
"I'll just give you some noodles." Yi Zhonghai said angrily.
"Are we talking about the Korean noodles now? It's about your lifestyle." Liu Haizhong had a serious expression.
Yi Zhonghai glared at Yan Jiekuang angrily and tried his best to explain.
"Let Yan Jiekuang explain the situation in detail!”Liu Haizhong said.
Under everyone's gaze, Yan Jiekuang smiled and said,""When I woke up at night to go to the toilet, I found that there was someone in the middle courtyard, so I came over to take a look. Then, I saw an old man holding Widow Qin's hand and even touching her face with his mouth.”
"You're mistaken. I was the one who asked Old Yi to send some noodles to Qin Huairu.”A middle-aged woman said.
Yi Zhonghai heaved a sigh of relief when an auntie opened her mouth.
However, there was a hint of gloom in the eyes of the auntie.
"Sister Qin's family is indeed in trouble, and I often help them out. First Uncle is kind-hearted, so please don't misunderstand.”Silly Zhu said.
"Do you often secretly help Qin Huiru in the middle of the night?”Xu Damao asked.
Yi Zhonghai's face turned black again after hearing Xu Damao's words, and Silly Zhu immediately attacked.
Silly Zhu directly punched Xu Damao.
Under Silly Zhu's punch, Xu Damao lay on the ground and could not get up.
"Silly Zhu, why did you hit me!" Lou Xiao'e was so angry that her face turned red. She quickly helped Xu Damao up.
"You're angry from embarrassment. I was right.”Xu Damao said.
"You're looking for a beating!" Silly Zhu wanted to make a move but was stopped by someone. Xu Damao hid behind Lou Xiao'e.
