He Yuzhu walked to the door of the house and suddenly heard a commotion from inside.
"Thieves?"
He frowned and thought about it. The courtyard house was full of neighbors. Who was blind enough to steal here? That was simply asking for death.
"Is it a stick meme?"
Only a stick would steal from his house. In the past, Silly Zhu spoiled him, so this little brat would come and visit him three or two times.
If he was really awesome, He Yuzhu would not spoil him.
He gently pushed the door open and walked in.
He saw a graceful figure skillfully filling the furnace with coal.
"Qin Huairu? What are you doing here?"
He Yuzhu's expression turned cold. He had already told Qin Huairu not to come to his room, yet she was here again.
Did she think that she could win him back with these things?
How laughable.
He recalled how Qin Huairu had ruined Silly Zhu's two marriages because of this in the TV series. He was even angrier.
"Silly Zhu, you…you're back?”
Qin Huairu turned around, and her eyes suddenly reddened. She freed a hand to wipe her eyes and said in a somewhat aggrieved tone,""I was just afraid that the fire would go out when you came back, so I helped you…"
With her pitiful appearance, if it was the old Silly Zhu, his heart would have ached and he would have gone up to comfort her.
However, He Yuzhu wasn't that stupid. From his point of view, Qin Huairu had her own motives for doing all these things.
"Without your help, the fire in my house wouldn't have been extinguished. Alright, you can leave.”
He Yuzhu said lightly.
"Silly Zhu, don't be like this. I really want to help you.”Qin Huairu felt even more aggrieved, and tears began to fall from her eyes.
"Help me? If you want to help me, then pay attention to the distance. I'm not married yet. What's the point of a widow like you coming to my place? If word gets out, how am I going to get a wife?"
He Yuzhu laughed coldly. Rumors were the most lethal.
Qin Huairu came to help him every day. On the surface, she was kind, but she was selfish in the dark.
In this era, reputation was important. If a widow came to him every day, even if there was nothing wrong, people would gossip if word got out.
Qin Huairu had used this trick to almost make Silly Zhu lose his family. If it wasn't for the deaf old lady's help, Silly Zhu might not even have a son.
She just wanted to hang He Yuzhu and work for her to feed her three children.
"Marry a wife?" Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment before she wiped her tears and said aggrievedly,""I didn't mean that. Didn't you say you were meeting my cousin last time? She'll be coming over in the next few days. I also wanted to tell you the good news, so I came over.”
"When she comes over, I'll introduce you to her.”
"Alright, I understand. You can go.”
He Yuzhu said calmly. Qin Huiru wanted to use Qin Jingru to marry him on a blind date so that they could become a family and suck his blood better.
She had a good plan, but she did not expect Qin Jingru to be even more selfish than her.
He was just using her as a springboard.
In the TV series, after Qin Jingru got close to Xu Damao, she ignored her family. She was afraid that Qin Huairu would drag her down with her and ruin her good life.
As expected of a member of the Qin family. They were all selfish.
However, he did not point it out. Whether Qin Jingru came or not did not have much to do with him.
He already had a marriage candidate in mind.
He did not even think about Qin Jingru.
"Alright, Silly Zhu, you go ahead.”
Qin Huairu bit her lips and sighed. She looked at the net in He Yuzhu's hands with teary eyes and left reluctantly.
She regretted framing Silly Zhu. Otherwise, she wouldn't be unable to take her lunch box.
After Qin Huairu left, He Yuzhu heaved a sigh of relief. She closed the door and started heating up the food.
The food in the canteen today was not as good as yesterday. After all, it was impossible for the leader to treat them to a meal every day.
There was only one meat dish and two vegetable dishes.
But even so, it was still better than the food in the courtyard house.
As soon as the dishes were heated up, Third Uncle came over at the right time.
"Yo, Zhu Zi, you just started eating.”
Third Uncle held the bowl and sat down with a smile.
"Third Uncle, did you just eat?”
He Yuzhu glanced at Third Uncle and curiously looked into his bowl.
When he saw this, he almost laughed.
This Third Uncle came over with three cornbread buns.
It was obvious that he wanted to freeload.
"I was looking for you for something, so I hurriedly came over with a bowl. Zhu Zi, you don't mind Third Uncle eating with you, right?”
Third Uncle smiled and looked at the only meat dish on the table, stewed beef with potatoes!
"It's okay, Third Uncle. Eat it. I can't finish it alone. It's a waste.”
He Yuzhu smiled. This Third Uncle was so smart that he was a little cute.
"Do you have wine? As the saying went, if you don't eat or drink, you will walk in vain. This was the essence left behind by the ancients.”
Third Uncle picked up a large piece of beef without hesitation and stuffed it into his mouth without caring about the heat.
The taste of the beef made him linger. He swallowed it in one gulp, as if he was the reincarnation of a hungry ghost.
He had not eaten meat for a week.
What condition? Eating meat every day?
Not everyone could bring food from the factory like He Yuzhu.
"Yes, but Third Master, what do you want to tell me? There's no movement for a long time."
He Yuzhu took out a bottle of wine and poured a small cup for Third Uncle. He looked at him in confusion.
Third Uncle took a sip of wine and looked at He Yuzhu. He smiled and said,"Didn't you ask me to find you a wife last time? There's one in our school."
"Teacher Ran Qiuye?"
He Yuzhu immediately guessed what Third Uncle was going to say, but it didn't seem to match the plot in the TV series.
According to the plot, the Third Uncle had left his things behind but hadn't told Ran Qiuye about it at all. He had even cursed him behind his back for being a toad lusting after swan meat.
Was it because he had been promoted? So Third Master also changed his mind?
Seeing that He Yuzhu did not speak for a long time, Third Master was slightly stunned. Why was He Yuzhu so ignorant?
"Zhu Zi, you know that in our line of work, we pay the most attention to etiquette. You said that it would be very impolite for me to tell others empty-handed, so…"
He didn't finish because he wanted He Yuzhu to understand and give him something to make things easier.
"So you want to ask for a recommendation fee from me?”
He Yuzhu smiled brightly. He thought that Third Master had changed his personality. He did not expect him to be scheming.
"Forget about the introduction fee. They're all neighbors. Why would they charge money?”Third Uncle shook his head and whispered,""As you know, my son just got married and his daughter-in-law is weak. Can you get me some ribs from your canteen to nourish her?”
He Yuzhu's smile did not fade. Previously, when Silly Zhu asked him to do something, he gave him a lot of things. Now that Third Master wanted it again, he was simply greedy.
It was fine to take the leftovers. After all, they were to be fed to the pigs. However, ribs were public property. Taking them was illegal.
"Third Master, I can't promise you this. Taking public property is illegal. I can't do it.”
He Yuzhu shook his head and refused. Although he also wanted to get to know Ran Qiuye, he had a bottom line. He would never do anything illegal.
