"Tell me the truth. Where did this fish come from?”
Liu Haizhong was holding a rolling pin as he angrily questioned Liu Guangtian who was kneeling on the ground.
"Dad, I told you, it was from Tian 'er!”
Liu Guangtian was beaten black and blue by Liu Haizhong and knelt on the ground in fear.
Sometimes, he really wondered if he was his father's biological son.
It was fine if he was beaten and scolded usually.
Today, he got back two fish, but he was still beaten up!
"Why would Ye Tian give you fish for no reason?”
"Tell me honestly, what did you do with Ye Tian today? Did you do something bad?"
Liu Haizhong felt that his son must have been used by Ye Tian.
"Dad, I promised Brother Tian that I won't tell anyone about this. Even if you beat me to death, I won't tell anyone!”
Liu Guangtian kept his mouth shut.
"How dare you throw a tantrum at me? Am I your father or is Ye Tian your father?”
Liu Guangtian kicked him twice.
"I wish Tian 'ge was my dad…"
Liu Guangtian muttered.
"What are you mumbling about?"
Liu Haizhong scolded as he hit her.
"He bribed you with two fish? You're being used by Ye Tian, you know that?”
……
Jia family.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
"Mom, I'm hungry too."
"Mom, Huai Hua's stomach is so hungry.”
Jia Geng, Xiao Dang, and Huai Hua were lying on the brick bed, constantly complaining about their hunger.
"Go to sleep. You won't be hungry if you fall asleep.”
Qin Huairu comforted the three children in a distraught manner.
"Hmph, how can the children not be hungry when they eat cornbread and salted vegetables every day?
Not to mention the children, even an adult like me can't stand it. Is that food for humans? We haven't eaten meat for two days!”
Jia Zhang-shi was lying on the brick bed, complaining in dissatisfaction.
"Mom, are you hungry? He's clearly greedy."
Qin Huairu loathed her mother-in-law to the extreme.
She felt that her three children had become like this because of Jia Zhangshi.
She really wanted to send Jia Zhang-shi back to her hometown and let her fend for herself.
However, she was afraid that others would poke her in the back.
Qin Huairu knew her mother-in-law very well.
If she really sent Jia Zhang-shi back to her hometown.
Jia Zhangshi would definitely go to the factory, the street office, and even the district and city to make a scene.
When that time came, Qin Huairu would not be able to stay in the rolling mill and the courtyard house anymore.
Qin Huairu's job was to replace her late husband, Jia Dongxu.
Therefore, she couldn't remarry and had to support Jia Zhangshi. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to keep her job.
"Who's hungry? Who was greedy? The children and I just want to eat some meat, right?”
"The stem is so small. It's the time for me to grow. Moreover, I'm old. Shouldn't I eat more meat to replenish my nutrients?”
"I haven't eaten meat and fine grain for two days. Two days, two whole days!”
"If my son, Dongxu, was still alive, how could he let me suffer like this?”
"My Dongxu, why are you leaving so early…"
Jia Zhang-shi began to wail again.
"Mom, it's the middle of the night. Do you still want to sleep?”
Qin Huairu was also a little angry.
"There's nothing in my stomach. I'm so hungry. Can I sleep?”
Jia Zhang-shi cursed,
"This idiot is also a useless piece of trash. He was caught stealing something, causing us to not even be able to eat leftovers and steamed buns.”
"He might as well not have brought us leftovers and steamed buns in the past. We used to eat so well, but now he doesn't bring us any. Isn't he deliberately harming us?”
Qin Huiru said resentfully," Silly Zhu was schemed against by Ye Tian. Silly Zhu is just stupid. Ye Tian is truly evil."”
"This Ye Tian is always going against us. Did our family offend him?
Not only did he snatch the jade pendant that our stick picked up, but he also slapped me. He's really something.”
At the mention of this, Jia Zhang-shi became angry.
" Mom, Grandma, don't worry! I won't spare Ye Tian! I'll take revenge!"”
"My precious grandson is the most promising. Grandma will be counting on you in the future.”
"Cough cough cough…"
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai's coughing could be heard in the courtyard.
Qin Huiru knew that this was Yi Zhonghai's signal to her. She immediately put on her clothes and went outside the courtyard.
Seeing that there was no one around, Yi Zhonghai secretly stuffed a bag of white flour into Qin Huairu's hands.
"Qin Huairu, this is ten catties of white flour. Take it back and make some fine grains for the children.”
"Grandpa Yi, thank you. I really don't know how to thank you. You're the kindest in this courtyard house.”
Qin Huairu took the bag of white flour. Although she said words of gratitude, she did not think so in her heart.
She knew that Yi Zhonghai had a reason for helping her.
Yi Zhonghai and his wife did not have any children, so they wanted her and the stick to support him in his old age.
Therefore, he would often secretly give money to Qin Huairu's family. This was also a form of emotional investment.
Just as Qin Huairu was in a daze, Yi Zhonghai suddenly moved closer to her.
"Grandpa Yi, what are you doing?"
Qin Huairu was shocked. She thought that Yi Zhonghai was going to do something bad to her.
"Qin Huairu, don't be afraid. Let me ask you something.”
Yi Zhonghai moved closer to Qin Huiru's ear and whispered,"
"You were the one who took the 20 kilograms of red copper from workshop one, right?”
"Master Yi, what are you talking about? What purple copper? Why don't I understand?”
Qin Huairu's expression was flustered, and her gaze was fleeting.
"Qin Huairu, don't panic. I won't report you. I'm just reminding you.
The security department is investigating this matter. You have to get rid of those 20 kilograms of purple copper as soon as possible. It's a disaster if you keep them. If you're caught, you'll go to jail.”
Qin Huairu was so frightened that her face turned pale. Her legs gave way and she nearly fell.
Yi Zhonghai quickly caught her.
"He's a hooligan! Yi Zhonghai is a hooligan!”
At this moment, Jia Zhang-shi suddenly rushed out of the house and shouted at the top of her lungs.
Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai were shocked. They knew that Jia Zhangshi had misunderstood.
"Mom, why are you shouting?"
"Jia Zhang-shi, don't shout!"
Jia Zhang-shi angrily scolded,
"You two shameless b * stards are afraid of losing face? I want to shout, I want the entire Siheyuan to see how shameless you are!”
The people in the courtyard house were quickly alarmed and rushed out to watch the show.
"Jia Zhang-shi, it's the middle of the night and you still can't let me sleep?”
"Jia Zhang-shi, what are you doing in the middle of the night?”
"What happened this time?"
When Qin Huairu saw that the matter had blown up, she hurriedly went to Raja Zhang.
"Mom, I'm begging you to stop fooling around, okay? It's not what you think. I'll explain it to you when I get back!”
Pa!
Jia Zhangshi slapped Qin Huairu angrily and spat before cursing,"
"You still have the face to explain? You shameless b * tch, you even hooked up with an old man like Yi Zhonghai. You've disgraced Dongxu and the stick!”
