Wu Kui didn't care that Mrs. Jia was staring at him. He wanted to show the Deaf Old Lady what he could do.
Wu Kui had learned how to cook before.
Wu Kui parked his bicycle under the eaves and walked towards the old lady's house with the fish in his hand.
However, she saw an auntie holding an old lady and about to leave.
"Grandma, auntie, what's wrong?”Wu Kui quickly took two steps forward and welcomed the two of them.
"Kui Zi, you're back! Did you see what the Jia family was doing just now?”A middle-aged woman looked up and saw that it was Wu Kui. She immediately seemed to be relieved and spoke to him.
The old lady also looked at Wu Kui.
She wondered what was wrong with Mrs. Jia today, and for no reason, she made a fuss.
"Hai, what else could she do? She still wants this fish! Don't worry, she's stopped now. Let's go back to the house!”When Wu Kui heard this, he lifted the net and showed it to the old lady and the auntie before sending them back.
Without Wu Kui's detailed explanation, the old lady and the auntie could roughly guess what the Jia family was up to.
Having lived in the same courtyard for decades, they were all used to the Jia family's behavior of getting something for nothing.
"How can you be so embarrassed! She was already so old, yet she was still snatching food from a child. How shameless!”A middle-aged woman shook her head, expressing her disdain for the Jia family's behavior.
"Humph, you still use some underhanded methods! She wanted to take something that Kui Zi bought with money for free. How could there be such a beautiful thing in the world!”The old lady also sighed and knocked on the floor with her walking stick.
Wu Kui's heart warmed when he saw the two of them supporting him so much.
" Ahem, Grandma, actually, I caught this fish from the river..." Wu Kui quickly processed the fish's internal organs while explaining to the old lady in embarrassment.
"So what if you caught it? You spent time to get it. Even if you threw the fish at her, it's all her fault! My dear grandson, don't worry. Grandma will always be on your side!”When the old lady heard this, she shouted even louder.
She could not bear to see Wu Kui suffer outside and not dare to make a sound when he came back.
Wu Kui's performance today was very good!
Not only did he not let Madam Jia take advantage of him, he even scolded her back!
This was what a man with indomitable spirit should be like!
"Haha, Grandma, I know what I'm doing. Besides, if I hit her with a fish, the fish will stink and break into pieces. Can we still eat it?”Wu Kui was touched by the old lady's favoritism. He smiled and mocked Mrs. Jia again.
"His auntie, listen. Kuizi is indeed my obedient grandson. He doesn't even use vulgarities when scolding people! I can be considered to have a successor!" The deaf old lady was amused by Wu Kui and laughed loudly.
The old lady actually had the personality of an old naughty child, and she had a clear distinction between love and hate. She liked Wu Kui's current upright appearance.
"I'm happy that Grandma is happy. I'll make a jade pearl later. You can taste it!”Wu Kui was infected by the old lady's smile, and his lips curled into a smile.
He still had some cabbage and potatoes in his room. It would be more sumptuous if he used them to make tonight's side dishes.
However, Wu Kui was boiling fish balls and could not spare his hands. He asked a middle-aged woman to go to his room to get some vegetables and also called an old man over for dinner.
" What pearl? Are there any fish bones?" The old lady pricked up her ears to listen to Wu Kui.
"Don't worry, there are no fish bones. How could I not care about giving you food!”Wu Kui looked at the old lady's lively appearance and could not stop laughing.
Having an elder in the family was like having a treasure!
As he was happy, his movements became smoother.
Wu Kui quickly prepared a few dishes. He waited for a middle-aged woman to bring over the vegetables. He stir-fried them and served them immediately.
"I passed by the rainwater house just now. She hasn't eaten at this time. Zhu Zi doesn't care about her at all. Aiyo, she's suffering!”A middle-aged woman and an old man came over and started talking to the old lady about He Yushui.
When Wu Kui heard that, his hands paused.
He Yushui was He Yuzhu's younger sister.
In the original novel, such a smart girl who had gone to school was forcefully coaxed by Qin Huairu and pushed her brother into a fire pit.
Anyone who knew such a person would think that this girl was definitely out of her mind.
Who would entrust their own brother to a widow with three children?
Wasn't this like treating an enemy?
At that time, Wu Kui also felt that He Yuzhu was really unlucky to have such a deceitful sister.
However, after hearing the auntie's words, Wu Kui understood that He Yuzhu's thoughts were all on Qin Huairu's family and did not care about He Yushui's life or death.
He Yushui was also a victim.
She was really unlucky to have He Yuzhu, a brother who could not walk the path of Dao whenever he saw Qin Huairu!
Especially since He Yushui was still a child.
It was difficult for her not to feel close to Qin Huairu, who was caring for her just like her older sister.
In the long run, how could He Yushui not be poisoned by Qin Huiru? Didn't she feel that Qin Huiru was the best in the world?
In the end, Qin Huairu was indeed the number one bird in the Siheyuan. Her arrangements were really meticulous!
She would not let go of anyone around He Yuzhu.
Wu Kui had yet to see Qin Huairu in the courtyard, but he did not have any intention of taking a detour.
No matter what, Xu Damao hadn't even started the first episode of the original novel, so Wu Kui didn't need to panic at all.
Moreover, the only person Qin Huairu's family was scheming against was He Shuiyu's elder brother, He Yuzhu.
Just as Wu Kui understood all this and was about to continue cutting vegetables, the old lady called him.
"Kui Zi, why don't you call Yu Shui over? We can eat together later!”
Huh?
You want me to call He Yushui for dinner?
Why was it so sudden?
Wu Kui blinked. He did not understand what the old lady was trying to say.
He Yushui shouldn't be so miserable that he needed the old lady's help, right?
"Why are you still standing there? Afraid that there wouldn't be enough food? Don't worry, you're an auntie who cooks a lot of food, and the dishes you cook are also quite a lot. The three of us won't be able to finish them all. Moreover, you young people have common topics to talk about. It's not wrong to interact more! Hurry up and go!" Old Mrs. Han urged Wu Kui.
"Just in time. I'll stir-fry the rest of the dishes. Kui Zi, you guys can eat when you come back!”A middle-aged woman took the spatula and also took over the work in Wu Kui's hands.
"I also brought wine. I'm just waiting for you to come back and drink with me!”The first uncle actually spoke up as well. He took out a bottle of wine from his back and shook it in front of Wu Kui.
Ha, so these three had discussed it beforehand?
Wu Kui had never seen such a situation before. Seeing that the three of them were standing in the same camp, he wiped his hands and put on his coat.
"Alright, I'll ask her to go." As for whether they would come or not, that was another matter.
In Wu Kui's memory, he could count the number of times he had spoken to He Yushui with one hand.
He really wasn't familiar with her.
Even when they were young, the two of them had never played together.
On the other hand, He Yushui had bumped into Qin Huairu's family members taking things from Wu Kui's house a few times, but he had never reminded them to return them.
To be honest, Wu Kui felt more coldness than sympathy for He Yushui.
After all, he would always respond to the way people treated him.
