"Sigh, don't cry. I'll get your auntie to send you some rice and noodles later. There are still some eggs at home.”
Everyone who worked in the factory knew that the closer it was to the few days before payday, the more likely it was that everyone would be like this.
Especially for people like Qin Huairu's family, who were earning money to support their entire family.
"First Uncle, thank you so much. What do you want me to say?!”Qin Huairu immediately flashed a tear-stained smile at the first uncle.
In this courtyard, the first uncle had the highest salary. There were no children at home, and the first aunt was also a good person to make a living.
Not only did he scrimp and save, but he also used to collect clothes from rich families to earn some money to supplement his family's expenses.
But now, the income of a middle-aged woman was gone, and the lives of rich families were getting tighter. They were also afraid that they would be labeled as capitalist habits.
However, there was still enough food at home, and Yue Yue had some savings.
First Uncle was a cold-faced but warm-hearted person. He could not bear to see others suffer.
Previously, he had helped Qin Huiru with her premature labor. Now that he saw Qin Huiru crying in the courtyard early in the morning, he was kind-hearted again.
Qin Huairu had also realized that this old man was easy to talk to. In fact, even without saying anything, he would soften his heart if you shed a few tears.
Alright, this would be a big tree that he could rely on in the future.
Just as Qin Huairu walked into the house in satisfaction, she bumped into a gloomy-looking mother-in-law.
"Huai Ru, who were you talking to just now?”
Jia Zhang-shi had gone back to sleep today, but she did not see Qin Huiru in the kitchen. Just as she was about to go out to look for her, she saw First Uncle saying something to Qin Huiru before leaving.
"Mom, it's a grandpa. I wanted to make some breakfast for you just now, but there wasn't even a single onion at home, so I went out to borrow some. I happened to meet an old man. He asked me about the child's condition, and I couldn't help but say that the child's milk wasn't enough. The first old man kindly said that he would lend me some rice, noodles, and eggs first. Mom, I thought that you've been serving me for a month and you need to nourish your body, so I agreed…"
Qin Huairu knew her mother-in-law all too well. She had been a widow for many years and could not bear to see a woman get too close to a man.
Moreover, if it was Jia Dongxu who was borrowing something, she would not say a word. But if it was her, it was a different story.
Only by putting on a good front and letting her do as she pleased would he be able to pass.
In the original plot, the deaf old lady said,""In the entire Siheyuan, Qin Huairu is the smartest!”
As expected, after Jia Zhangshi heard Qin Huairu's words, her expression softened.
"Alright, then we'll use it first. You have to eat something good too. Otherwise, if the milk that just came out is hung back, the stick will suffer again. I'm going to see my grandson.”
After saying that, Jia Zhangshi turned around and went to the main room to watch the movie.
Qin Huairu heaved a long sigh of relief. At this moment, a middle-aged woman was walking towards her house.
Qin Huairu hurriedly went out to welcome them, only to see a middle-aged woman carrying two cloth bags in one hand and a small basket in the other.
"Huai Ru, your First Uncle asked me to send some food to your house. Looking at your expression, you really need to nourish yourself.”An auntie said kindly.
"Thank you, auntie. I really have no other choice. In the future, when Dongxu pays me, I'll pay you back!!”
When she first married into the Jia family, Qin Huairu did not have to worry about these things. Besides, Jia Zhangshi was very strict with this beautiful daughter-in-law.
But now that life was getting tighter and tighter, she had to expand her social circle.
When an auntie heard this, she quickly said,"Don't worry. We still have some. You can use it."”
This was what Qin Huairu wanted to hear the most.
Everyone knew that even if Jia Dongxu had paid them, he wouldn't have any spare money to pay them back.
Sigh, being able to borrow it was a skill, but not having to return it was a great skill.
Qin Huairu smiled as she took the rice, white flour, and ten eggs in the basket that a middle-aged woman had brought over.
This morning, Jia Zhang-shi ate two big bowls of noodle soup with Frangipani floating on top.
She burped and put down the bowl in satisfaction.
"Huai Ru, eat more too! You can sleep soundly after drinking milk. My grandson is hard-earned. You have to feed him well.”Qin Huairu was furious. This old woman really knew how to talk.
She had eaten two big bowls of noodles from the pot. She had eaten more than half of the egg flower on the top and the noodles on the bottom. She could only drink something diluted, yet she still said such words.
However, anger was anger, but Qin Huairu's expression did not show it at all.
"Mom, I know!" she said gently.”
When Jia Dongxu returned home that night, he was relieved to hear that Qin Huairu had borrowed food from the first uncle.
He was really afraid that Qin Huairu would ask him to look for Silly Zhu.
When he thought of Silly Zhu, he couldn't help but get angry. He had lost all his face. However, they were sitting very close to each other, and they could see each other very often. This kid was now a popular person in front of the factory manager. No matter how angry she was, she could only endure it.
Other than Jia Dongxu, there was another person who didn't want to tolerate He Yuzhu anymore. He had to compete with He Yuzhu.
