It wasn't a day off, so even though it was night time, the water was still clean.
If he dared to take a bath at night on a day off, the water would be no better than muddy water. It could suffocate him to death.
After taking a beautiful bath, she shaved her hair and put on new clothes. She threw away all the old clothes and went to the department store to buy a new mask before walking back leisurely.
.........
Inside the courtyard house.
Silly Zhu walked into the courtyard and saw Qin Huiru washing clothes.
He quietly walked over and placed his gloved hand on her ear.
Qin Huairu was absent-mindedly thinking about what Ju Yi had said today when she suddenly felt something strange in her ears. She immediately came back to her senses and pursed her lips into a smile. She picked up the wet clothes that she had just washed and flung them at him, causing water to splash everywhere.
"Aiyo, this is cold. I washed my face today, hey, you still want to help me wash it again?”Silly Zhu touched the water on his face and chuckled.
Qin Huairu pointed at the net in his hand with her chin and said,""What's in your lunch box?”
Shazhu put the lunch box back." Not today. My sister is back today. I promised her to make something delicious. Next time."”
Qin Huairu shot him a sidelong glance.
When Silly Zhu saw this, he said,"Hey, what's with your expression?" Let me tell you, your three children are not lacking in food today. The stick boy brought his two younger sisters outside the factory wall and got a beggar's chicken. It was not bad. The two young ladies ate it very happily.
I don't know where that chicken came from, but it definitely wasn't from the factory. I guess."
He pointed his chin in a direction and said,"See for yourself."”
With that, she jogged into the house.
Qin Huairu looked at him, then at the direction he was pointing at. Her heart was pounding.
How could she not know which direction that was? That was the front yard.
And who had a chicken in the front yard? There was only Xu Damao's family. There was no one else.
Xu Damao hummed a song he didn't understand and carried his bag into the courtyard.
However, as soon as he entered the courtyard and took a casual look, his eyes instantly could not move away.
He walked up to the cage and bent down to stare at the chicken.
He saw an old hen clucking and sticking her head out.
But...
"Moth, moth!"
"Hey, I'm here. What's wrong?" Lou Xiao'e opened the curtain and asked.
"Why is one of our chickens missing?”Xu Damao pointed at the cage.
Lou Xiao'e looked at the cage and replied,""I don't know. I've been having a headache for the whole day. I was lying in bed and thought you gave it away.”
"Who else could I give it to? It was given to me by the community when I went to the countryside to play a movie for others.”Xu Damao said.
Lou Xiao'e said,"Then it can't be that he ran away from the cage, right?"”
"Quick, quick, quick. Search the courtyards.”Xu Damao urged.
Suddenly, he sniffed and smelled the fragrance of stewed chicken. He immediately put down his bag and ran into the courtyard.
.........
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard house, they heard a commotion inside.
"Heh, could it be that this is the beginning?"
Her eyes lit up as she walked in quickly.
After a while, when they entered the middle court, they saw a few neighbors gathered in twos and threes, whispering.
And in Silly Zhu's room, there were cries from time to time.
Seeing Third Master Yan Bugui standing nearby, he went up and asked,""Hey, Third Master, what's going on?”
Third Uncle looked back and asked curiously,"Who are you?"
Juyi was stunned.
What was going on? He didn't recognize her?
"No, Third Uncle, what's wrong with you? I'm Juyi. Don't tell me you don't recognize me after a day of work?”
"Juyi? You said you're Juyi?"
Third Uncle looked at him in surprise. He was dressed in clean new clothes and his hair was cut into a buzz cut. He looked energetic.
He looked at his face again. Because he didn't take care of himself before, although he looked handsome, the stubble on his mouth was very bad. Moreover, his eyes didn't look very bright and were a little dull.
But now, he had shaved his beard and his eyes were full of vigor. He looked like a completely different person.
"Third Uncle, how is it? After cleaning it up, isn't it handsome?”Ju Yi proudly spun around.
Looking at Ju Yi, who was carrying bags in his hands, Third Uncle nodded."You are handsome, but your change is too great. I don't even dare to recognize you.”
"Let's not talk about this first." "What's going on? Why do I feel like I'm about to fight?" Ju Yi asked softly.”
"Hey, you know that there are thieves in our courtyard, right? Do you know that Xu Damao has two old hens?”Third Uncle whispered.
Ju Yi nodded." Of course I know. Brother Damao even said that he would treat me to a drink and kill one in two days. How could I not know?"”
After saying that, he secretly looked at Third Uncle's expression.
Things did not go beyond his expectations. A hint of jealousy flashed across Third Master's eyes, making him secretly happy.
He didn't hate Third Master. Although he was a scheming person, he was a good person in the entire courtyard.
Everyone had their own little schemes, and Third Uncle was no exception.
His entire family was counting on his salary to survive. If he didn't calculate, they might not be able to survive.
However, he also kept his integrity as a scholar and would never take anything that he should not take.
It was only when Silly Zhu asked him to introduce Ran Qiuye that he did not do it properly. In fact, he was alright in other aspects. He had calculated everything clearly. Everyone knew about his little scheme, but he really did not do anything outrageous.
It was true that he was greedy for petty gains, but this was because of his life and this era. If he was not shrewd and calculative, his family might starve.
Didn't he say that if he didn't eat or wear anything, he would be poor if he couldn't scheme?
Just these words alone were enough to prove that he had calculated everything clearly because he dared to say it openly.
