She shouted at the door unhappily,"Who is it?"
"Yu Shui, it's me. Sister Qin has something to talk to you about.”
Upon hearing that it was Qin Huiru, He Yushui could not help but smile. He hurriedly got up to open the door.
"Sister Qin, come in quickly."
Qin Huairu saw the chopsticks on the floor the moment she entered. She walked forward and picked up the chopsticks."You little girl, why did you throw your chopsticks on the ground?”
"Sister Qin, I was using my chopsticks to curl my hair when you suddenly knocked on the door. My hand was not steady and my chopsticks fell to the ground.”
He Yushui pursed her lips and said.
"I can tell. It's Sister Qin's fault for scaring us.”
"Alright, I'll curl your hair for you. Let's talk while we do it.”
As Qin Huairu spoke, she walked to the stove and extended her chopsticks.
Looking at Qin Huiru's figure, He Yushui thought to herself,'Her brother must have taken the wrong medicine!'
Sister Qin was such a good person, but her brother actually wanted to keep a distance from her and draw a clear line between them.
He Yushui was a little unsociable and did not interact with the other people in the courtyard house. However, Qin Huairu was different.
In her eyes, Qin Huairu was hardworking, kind, and gentle. She was a rare good woman.
It was just that she was unlucky to become a widow at such a young age and had to bring up three children. It was also because of these reasons that He Yushui felt especially sorry for Qin Huiru.
In the past, her silly brother would send food to Qin Huairu's family in a lunchbox every now and then. There were some foods that even she had never eaten before.
However, she had never held any grudges against him.
Everything had a cause and effect. She did not like Qin Huairu for no reason and was willing to help her family.
The He siblings lost their mother a long time ago. Later, their unreliable father ran away with a widow.
It could be said that He Yuzhu had played the role of a father during He Yushui's growth. To a certain extent, He Yuzhu had filled in the role of a mother for Qin Huiru.
He Yushui could tell that Qin Huiru had a motherly side to her. If nothing went wrong, she would naturally look at Qin Huiru the way she did.
At this moment, Qin Huairu was curling her hair with a pair of hot chopsticks. She felt that Qin Huairu was simply too nice.
"Sister Qin, your hands are really good. Your curly hair looks much better than mine.”
"Of course, I have to make my hair look better.”
Qin Huairu said with a smile. Then, the smile slowly disappeared from her face, replaced by sorrow.
"Yu Shui, Sister Qin came to see you today because she has something to ask of you.”
Qin Huairu organized her words and did not beat around the bush. She spoke directly to He Yushui.
In reality, Qin Huiru didn't even need to say anything. When He Yushui saw Qin Huiru, she knew very well why she was looking for her.
He Yushui treated Sister Qin better than her brother. She asked directly,""Sister Qin, you came to find me because of my brother, right?”
Qin Huairu nodded in response.
He Yunshui no longer had the mood to curl her hair. She pulled Qin Huairu to her bed and sat down, pouring her heart out to her.
"Sister Qin, I'll be honest with you. I've been thinking about it for a few days and have been wanting to talk to you.”
"Our two families used to have such a good relationship, but now it's like we've become enemies.”
"I think it's my brother's fault for this. He's heartless. All these years, you've washed his clothes and cleaned his house for him. He's completely forgotten how good you were to him!”
"I don't know what's wrong with him now. I really don't know what he's thinking about all day long!”
He Yushui was extremely dissatisfied with her brother's actions and stood up for Qin Huiru. The more she spoke, the more uncomfortable she felt, and the expression on her face became agitated.
When Qin Huiru saw He Yushui's reaction, she was overjoyed. However, on the surface, she looked like she was about to cry, and her expression was unusually aggrieved.
"Your brother has already said it so bluntly. What else do you not understand?”
"Your brother wants to find a partner. He thinks that if he doesn't keep a distance from a widow like me, he will be single for the rest of his life.”
He Yushui couldn't hold it in anymore.
"My brother is a soft-hearted person. He cares too much about other people's opinions!”
"The people in the Siheyuan are too annoying. They like to gossip about other people's affairs.”
"If you ask me, there's nothing between the two of you. You don't have to care about what others think!”
He Yushui's voice became louder and louder. She wanted everyone in the courtyard house to hear her so that they would know the pure relationship between her silly brother and Sister Qin.
You can't underestimate such rumors. Even saliva can kill people.
I understand that your brother wanted to protect his reputation and keep a distance from our family.
I originally wanted to draw a clear line with your brother in the future and stay far away from him.
Even though the family was really unable to make a living two days ago, I didn't look for your brother. Instead, I went to borrow food from Xu Damao.
But Xu Damao, that black-hearted bastard, wants me to pay him back double! How could I dare to borrow his food!"
"Yushui, without your brother's help, I really can't feed my three children. As their mother, I can only shamelessly come to you and ask you to speak on my behalf.”
