"Mom, Qin Huairu is now working to support Li Wuwei.
They said that Li Wuwei was sick, but he could go fishing. Was he like a patient?
Qin Huairu was so innocent. She must have been deceived.
Also, when Qin Huiru went to work, Li Wuwei would collect her monthly salary and give her three yuan for food. She could only afford to eat cornbread in the factory every day.”
When Jia Dongxu said this, his heart ached. He wished he could replace Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu had obviously gone on a blind date with him first and had even eaten the blind date meal of his family.
"Aiya, how can you be like this? This is too immoral.”
Even people like Jia Zhangshi couldn't help but curse. She had never worked in her life and relied on Old Jia after marrying into the courtyard.
The Old Merchant had lost his son, so it had always been the old men who supported the family. Even if there were women working, they were either dual-employed or the man was seriously ill or dead.
However, Li Wuwei was so young, yet he had tricked Qin Huairu into taking the post. Wasn't this bullying a woman?
"Mom, Qin Huairu hasn't been married for long. If I kidnap her and tell the public that Li Wuwei hasn't succeeded yet, what do you think?”
When Jia Dongxu thought of this, he couldn't stop it. Qin Huairu was in the workshop, and she was hanging around in front of him every day. He felt uncomfortable every time he saw her.
"Dongxu, just give up. Why don't you go to the backyard at night and listen to it? That creaking sound can last for half a night.
Don't think about Qin Huiru anymore. If she's not a virgin, our Old Jia family can't have her. We can't afford to lose that person.”
Although Jia Zhang-shi felt that it was good to have Qin Huairu as a daughter-in-law, since she could work and earn money, wouldn't she enjoy a good life? However, she was already Li Wuwei's woman, so how could she dare to accept her?
"Mom, I don't care. I want Qin Huairu.”
Jia Zhang-shi pulled the blanket over her head and started crying again.
" Go ahead and cry. You'll feel better after you cry. Tomorrow, I'll find another matchmaker to ask around. I'll find you a matchmaker like Qin Huairu.”
Jia Zhang-shi also felt uncomfortable. She opened the curtain and went into the courtyard. This kind of shocking gossip could definitely be said.
When the workers at the rolling mill returned to the courtyard and revealed the shocking gossip, the residents exploded.
"Li Wuwei has led the courtyard astray. First, he intercepted the blind date of the alley courtyard, and then he tricked his wife into working in the factory. If this continues, there will definitely be people who will follow suit.”
Some of the aunties started to worry. Her husband couldn't do this and send her to the factory. How could he bear it?
"Maybe he's been taught badly. There's something I didn't say before, but now that I think about it, it doesn't seem right.
Yesterday, Jia Dongxu went on a blind date again. My Guangqi tipped Xu Damao off. I was thinking that if Liu Huayu wasn't too fat, Xu Damao would have stolen her husband.”
Second Aunt directly exposed Xu Damao, making Jia Zhangshi, who had just come over, feel as if she had been struck by lightning.
"That can't be. The Council can't keep harassing my old Jia family.”
Jia Zhang-shi was afraid. After being robbed once, Dongxu at home was on the verge of death. If it happened again, her son would probably take things too hard.
"The source of this is Li Wuwei. Everyone must be careful.
It's just that Qin Huiru is suffering. I just went to take a look, but she's still cooking at home.
They earned money at work and worked after work. They didn't mistreat others like this.”
"Look, isn't that Li Wuwei? He's back. Aiya, he actually caught a big fish.”
Suddenly, a resident cried out in alarm, and everyone hurriedly looked over.
He saw Li Wuwei pushing a bicycle with a short fishing rod tied to it. The key was that there was a big fish that weighed about four to five pounds hanging from the handle.
"Li Wuwei, where did you catch this fish?”
Yan Bugui jumped up and caught up with him in a few steps. His eyes were burning with greed. He had made a killing.
"It's the moat outside Dongzhimen. I even caught a duck.”
After hearing what he said, everyone saw a big duck tied to the back seat of the bicycle.
"Oh my god, your luck is too good!”
Yan Bugui's eyes were red. His salary was low, and it was not easy to support a large family. He wanted to think of something to subsidize his family.
In the end, Li Wuwei had only been out for a day, and he had fish and ducks. The heavens were unfair.
"It's alright. I have to go back. I haven't had dinner yet.”
Although Li Wuwei said that, he slowly pushed his bicycle. After a while, he walked from the middle court to the backyard.
Everyone noticed the big fish, but they forgot that there was a small fish that was two fingers wide and half a liang heavy hanging on the handle. This was his harvest today.
As for the big fish and duck, they were all taken out from the reward market.
There were wild ducks by the moat, but they could fly. He chased them for a while, but he couldn't even touch their feathers. He had long given up.
"Brother, you're back."
Qin Huairu had already finished cooking and was about to come out with a basin to wash the clothes.
"Ah, what a big fish!"
"There are still ducks!"
Li Wuwei started to show off. If his luck wasn't good enough, he would use cheats to make up for it.
"Huai Ru, come, take the fish and stew it. Keep the ducks for the eggs.”
"Sigh! I'll grab some pickled vegetables. You can still drink soup if you stew pickled fish. I'll also give you some crispy peanuts. Have a good drink at night.”
Qin Huairu was elated, but she quickly took out a chair and let her man rest first.
Then, she rolled up her sleeves and took the fish to the pond to process it. She scraped the scales and removed the gills. She had never killed fish at home, but she had seen how her father handled it.
Many of the residents in the courtyard came over to watch the show.
Seeing Li Wuwei leaning back in his chair with a teacup in his hand and Qin Huairu killing fish, they couldn't help but shake their heads.
"Why should we let the bad guys be proud and the good people cry?”
"What makes Li Wuwei so lucky? He has such a big fish. However, Qin Huairu can finally taste it.”
"I'm afraid you're thinking too much. For someone like Li Wuwei, it's already good enough that he can give people some fish soup.”
"Let's go fishing some time. And that duck, I'm so envious. It's still alive and can lay eggs.”
Xu Damao was already holding a bowl of rice. He had his mother who didn't work to cook for him, but when he saw Qin Huairu killing the fish, the food in his bowl instantly lost its fragrance.
Qin Huairu finally finished processing the fish and brought it to the kitchen to stew. The residents in the courtyard sighed and left, but they still could not understand.
After Li Wuwei had rested and it was cold outside, he went into the house to find a book to pass the time and wait for dinner.
As for helping out in the kitchen, he was overthinking it.
Mencius said: A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen.
Confucius said: This is reasonable.
He married Qin Huairu because he saw that she was capable and knew how to take care of others. Reality proved that he was right.
"Brother, the peanuts are ready. You drink it first. The fish needs to be stewed for a while.”
Qin Huairu came over with peanuts, a wine bottle, and a glass.
"Yes, the doctor said that drinking less can nourish my stomach.”
Li Wuwei nodded and said,"Later, boil more hot water and take a bath together to avoid the fishy smell."?”
"Yes!"
Qin Huairu looked bashful as she went to the kitchen again.
