Qin Huairu carefully carried the red braised pork and slowly walked back. When she reached the courtyard, she smelled the fragrance of the red braised pork again.
Qin Huiru glanced at Yang Weimin's room and realized that the windows were already closed.
"Without you, I still have meat to eat.”
Qin Huiru suddenly felt that even if she married Yang Weimin, he might not treat her well.
Just like yesterday, when she had come to ask for food with her belly out, Yang Weimin did not even give her a piece of meat. She had just gone to Yi Zhonghai's house and had not said anything. Yi Zhonghai had already asked an auntie to give her some meat.
Qin Huiru instantly felt that Yang Weimin wasn't a good match either. Moreover, if he had any difficulties in the future, he could ask Yi Zhonghai for help instead of Yang Weimin.
Qin Huairu looked at the plate of red braised pork in front of her and could not help but gulp. However, she did not taste a piece directly. With so many pieces of red braised pork, she believed that she would be able to divide them later.
Qin Huairu quickened her pace and entered the room. Jia Zhangshi's eyes lit up when she saw the red braised pork in Qin Huairu's hands. She quickly stood up and snatched it from her.
Jia Zhangshi's swift actions startled Qin Huiru. Qin Huiru hurriedly held her back, afraid that the Red Braised Meat would fall to the ground.
However, when Jia Zhangshi saw the Red Braised Meat, she was as swift and fierce as an eagle. Her toot hands were like eagle claws as she grabbed the plate firmly. Her sharp gaze signaled Qin Huairu to let go.
"That's right. Although Yi Zhonghai is a little muddle-headed, he still has a conscience, unlike that wicked Yang Weimin.”
Jia Dongxu licked the corner of his mouth, his eyes shining as he said," This red braised pork is not bad!”
When the stick saw the braised pork, he clapped his hands happily and said," Meat, meat! There's meat to eat!"
Jia Zhang-shi counted. There were a total of ten pieces of meat, and each piece of meat was not small. First, she gave three pieces to the stick, then three to Jia Dongxu, and three to herself.
There was only one piece left on the plate. Jia Zhangshi hesitated for a moment before handing the plate to Qin Huairu.
Jia Dongxu took the plate first, then poured the gravy on the porridge. The porridge immediately became oily and shiny.
The meme, who was already eating big mouthfuls of meat, saw this and immediately shouted," Me too!”
Jia Dongxu poured the remaining soup into the bowl.
Jia Zhangshi coughed, indicating that she wanted some too. However, Jia Dongxu tilted the plate 90 degrees and only two drops fell.
Jia Zhang-shi picked up the piece of meat that Qin Huiru had given her and mixed it with her porridge. Then, she placed it back on the plate.
Qin Huairu stared at Jia Zhangshi's actions with her mouth agape. Although she was a little unhappy, she still took the plate.
The originally bright red braised pork had turned white. Fortunately, the auntie had stewed it well. Otherwise, it would be no different from cooking for nothing.
Little Dang's eyes sparkled as he looked at Qin Huiru. She really wanted to eat meat too.
Qin Huairu smiled at Little Dang. Then, she split the red braised pork into two halves and gave half to Little Dang.
Jia Zhang-shi saw this and muttered," A good-for-nothing, why eat meat!”
"Mom!" Qin Huairu frowned slightly.
Jia Zhang-shi pursed her lips and didn't speak, continuing to eat.
In the past, he would occasionally eat meat, but he had never eaten such a large piece. He had always cut it into small pieces, and he could barely taste the taste of meat.
Moreover, it had never been braised before. It was usually boiled with some salt and ginger before being eaten directly.
"Yi Zhonghai's family really knows how to enjoy themselves. They even eat such big pieces of meat!”
"His salary is very high, and he has an apprentice. I guess some people who can't afford meat have given their tickets to him.”
"Really?"
"Otherwise, where would there be so much meat?" Jia Dongxu turned to Qin Huairu." This is only a part of it, right?”
Qin Huairu nodded." About half."”
Jia Zhang-shi's triangular eyes perked up again." Only half?! There are five of us. Including the one in your stomach, that makes six. There were only two of them, so why did they only get half? It should be half of ours."
"Yes, Yi Zhonghai doesn't lack food. Since you went to get it, why didn't you take more? Today, Yi Zhonghai made us suffer at the academy's meeting. He should give us some compensation.”
"That's right!" Jia Zhangshi echoed," They've probably finished eating by now. You can ask for more tomorrow."”
Qin Huairu did not expect that she would still be criticized after taking back so much red braised pork. Furthermore, she and Little Dang only got one piece.
It was only one-tenth of the total. The three of them each had three pieces, and they were all relatively large. The remaining piece of red braised pork was actually the smallest piece.
Although Qin Huairu had thought about asking Yi Zhonghai for help in the future, she did not expect to go there the next day. If she went there every day, Yi Zhonghai would definitely be annoyed.
Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment before saying," They only have this much meat. They probably won't have any more tomorrow.”
"Who knows if they're hiding? Go and take a look tomorrow. If there's no meat, see if there are other vegetables.”
"That's not very good, right?"
"If I tell you to go, then go. Why are you talking so much nonsense? If I hadn't asked you to go, would you have eaten meat with the money-losing goods?”
Qin Huairu felt extremely wronged, but she still nodded and agreed. If she didn't agree, she would have to listen to Jia Zhangshi's nagging for the rest of the night.
In the past, it was not the first time that Qin Huairu had nagged for an entire night over such trivial matters. This was also one of the reasons why Qin Huairu had chosen to endure it silently.
If she talked back, she would be scolded even more fiercely, and her husband, Jia Dongxu, would not stop her. She would even help to criticize her.
As the number of times increased, Qin Huairu learned the habit of asking once at most. If it didn't work, she wouldn't resist anymore. Instead, she would do as Jia Zhangshi and her son said.
As for the matter of face, Qin Huairu had long let it go, or rather, lost all of it.
In this courtyard house, she was always the one to do whatever she needed.
She had no choice but to make some requests that were obviously difficult for her. She knew that the other party would reject her, but she still asked.
After getting the answer she expected, she would return home and be lectured again. This was her daily routine.
After dinner, Qin Huiru started to clear the dishes by herself.
Little Dang wanted to help, but because he was too young, he could not do much. Sometimes, Qin Huairu had to take care of Little Dang.
Jia Dongxu and Jia Zhangshi went for a walk with their sticks and only returned when it was almost time.
Qin Huairu had to prepare hot water first. Even though it was summer, she did not use cold water. Instead, she used warm water to wipe her body and bathe.
In Jia Zhangshi's original words, it was to wash it with cold water in case of catching a cold.
