After busying himself for the entire afternoon and sending off a bunch of carpenters, Qin Mu started to clean the house.
After some rest, looking at the brand new indoor environment, he unconsciously felt comfortable.
"Heh, don't say it. It's still the old masters of this year who have work in their hands!”
There was a set of cabinets that were as tall as a person, a set of cabinets with layers, a one-meter-tall eight-square table, and four armchairs.
It was done in the afternoon.
In the end, the carpenters used the leftover materials to make a few stools and a basin stand.
This really made the best use of everything without the slightest waste!
This craftsmanship was really impeccable!
Moreover, the boxwood had a natural floral fragrance that had the effect of repelling mosquitoes. When placed in the house, even the mosquitoes were reduced by a lot.
The more Qin Mu looked, the happier he became. This money was really worth it.
..........
While Qin Mu was happy, Jia Zhangshi next door was worried.
How could she not know that the neighbor had made such a huge commotion? They were buying a bicycle and building new furniture!
Looking at the furniture in his house that he had used for half his life, his heart was filled with anxiety.
Her head started to hurt again.
"This is the scourge of the heavens. This headache of mine must have been given to me by the scourge next door. Not only can it cure people, but it can also harm people.”
"Hmph, sooner or later, I'll make him spit out everything he took from here!”
As Jia Zhang-shi was thinking, the door creaked and a figure walked in.
Little Dang, who was playing in the house, immediately pounced on the person excitedly when he saw him.
"Mom!"
It was Qin Huairu.
Because the food in the hospital cafeteria cost money, she had to go back and forth three times a day and cook at home.
"Mom, you're resting!"
Qin Huairu said with a smile as soon as she entered the house and saw her mother-in-law sitting at the back wall.
"I'm resting. You're just watching me rest!”
"Are you the one who brought me here?”
"Also, grab some food and cook. I've been starving for half a day!”
Qin Huairu felt wronged when she saw how her mother-in-law did not treat her well despite her smiling face.
She had taken care of the little one at the hospital for a day, and now she had to take care of the old one.
If she said that her mother-in-law was in debt and couldn't move, it would be fine. She acknowledged this fate and could also serve her with feces and urine.
However, his mother-in-law was only in her sixties. Her body was still strong and she did not do any work every day. Other than arguing with a group of aunties and wives in the courtyard, she would go into the house and curse this person to death and that person to live.
He couldn't take care of his three children, especially the two younger ones.
Ever since she was born, her mother-in-law had never given her a good look, let alone a hug.
All day long, she was always spouting money-losing things.
At the thought of this, Qin Huairu sighed in her heart.
Life in the city was good, but it depended on the people.
How did she end up with such a family?
However, since she had entered this house, she had to accept her fate. She placed the locust flower in her arms on the bed at the side and rolled up her sleeves to prepare dinner for them.
Because the stick was inseparable from the person, she had informed the nurse before she came. She was in a hurry, so she had to be careful on her side.
In a short while, the pot of gruel and the plate of vegetables were ready.
Apart from that, he also brought over a few leftover cornbread from yesterday to heat it up.
"Mom, I have to go back later. I'm almost done eating the cornbread. I'll make some cornbread noodles later. Can you steam the cornbread while you're at it?”
Qin Huairu, who had just finished cooking and packed the lunchbox she had brought back, said to her mother-in-law as she was rushing back to the hospital.
When Jia Zhangshi, who had just sat down, heard this, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Qin Huairu.
Then, she put down the chopsticks in her hand and shook her toot cheeks as she spoke sternly.
"What's wrong? Is my eldest grandson's finger broken, or is yours?”
"You can't steam this cornbread!"
"I'm telling you, Qin, you have to understand your status. You're just a lowly thing from the countryside. If you can enter our Jia family's door, it's because your Qin family is climbing up the ladder!”
"Now you're ordering me around? What do you want? Are you rebelling?”
Qin Huairu's eyes reddened when she heard her mother-in-law's harsh words.
"Mom, the stick is still at the hospital. I have to rush back. If it weren't for this, would you have made a move on this cornbread?”
Hearing that Qin Huairu still dared to retort, Jia Zhangshi immediately stood up.
"Yo, Qin, you're even more powerful today. You still dare to talk back?”
"We didn't pay for the hospital. Why don't you go and see what the doctors and nurses are doing? Let me tell you, you're the one who's going to steam the cornbread today!”
"Mom ~"
At this moment, Qin Huairu's tears were already rolling down uncontrollably.
Little Dang, who was standing at the side, saw her mother crying. Although she still did not understand what was going on in front of her, seeing her mother cry made her feel uncomfortable. She also started crying.
When this mother cried, she woke up the little locust flower that was still lying on the bed.
She immediately started crying as well.
Instantly, the room was filled with cries.
When Jia Zhang-shi saw this, she thought of Qin Mu next door, and her heart was filled with anger.
"Cry, cry, cry. I haven't even said a few words to you and you're already giving me a hard time?”
"It's your turn to be the mother-in-law or mine!”
As she said this, Jia Zhang-shi pushed the plate of cornbread in front of her onto the ground and flipped over the other dishes.
"Rebel, rebel! As a daughter-in-law, you're bullying an old lady!”
"Everyone, come and take a look. This Qin fellow is the reverse Tiangang…"
This time, the house became lively.
Even the neighbors in the courtyard walked out of their houses and surrounded them when they heard the commotion!
