She thought to herself that this son of hers really knew what was on her mind. She thought about how she had not listened to her father back then and that it was right to keep him.
To have such a sensible son, this life was worth it.
Looking at He Xiao and Lou Xiao'e, the mother and son, echoing each other, He Yuzhu couldn't help but feel a little confused.
However, thinking about it, Lou Xiao'e was right. After being a bachelor for decades, she really suffered from the cold words in this courtyard.
Now that his biological son had fallen from the sky, he was suddenly a father.
Such a joyous occasion should be announced to the entire academy through a loudspeaker.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu laughed heartily.
"Hahaha, right, son, you're right. Let's go. Daddy will bring you around our Siheyuan!”
……
In the backyard.
Xu Damao sat on the brick bed and munched on melon seeds while listening to the faint noise coming from the courtyard by the window.
It was only when she heard Qin Huairu crying that she smiled smugly.
"Haha, Jingru, come and listen. It seems that your cousin is crying. Just now, it sounded like she was quarreling with He Yuzhu.”
Qin Jingru pursed her lips disdainfully and snorted coldly.
"Hehe, they are almost a married couple, so what if they want to make a fuss? That cousin of mine is really too much. She has already received Silly Zhu's salary, so what's the point of crying, making a fuss, and hanging herself?”
Although Qin Jingru was Qin Huairu's cousin, this country bumpkin had learned a lot from Xu Damao ever since she married him.
Although they lived in the same courtyard, Qin Jingru knew that her cousin, Qin Huairu, had to support a family of five by herself. Her salary was not enough.
As she was worried that Qin Huiru would come to her every few days to borrow food and money, she had distanced herself from Qin Huiru a long time ago.
Usually, they would not even greet each other when they met.
At this moment, although she could vaguely hear Qin Huiru crying, Qin Jingru was very calm.
He acted as if it had nothing to do with him.
Looking at Qin Jingru's unconcerned look, Xu Damao was amused. He deliberately teased,"
"Hehe, you too. You're her cousin after all. You sound quite sad when you hear her crying.”
"Pah!"
Qin Jingru spat on Xu Damao's face and said coldly,"
"Xu Damao, I think you're the one who wants to care about her, right?”
"Hehe, don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. I heard that my cousin was willing to let you do it for a few white buns. No wonder you still care about her even across the courtyard.”
"But I advise you not to think too much about yourself. She is preparing to get married to Silly Zhu now. Even if the other end is beaten to death, it is her business.”
After being married to Xu Damao for so many years, Qin Jingru had long seen through Xu Damao. He was bent on finding a woman to give birth to his son and was flirting with women everywhere.
In the few years after Jia Dongxu's death, Xu Damao had always had designs on Qin Huiru.
At the same time, Qin Jingru knew her cousin Qin Huairu better than anyone else. She was a woman with a family. Her salary was not enough to spend.
In order to bring more steamed buns home, she would always flirt with those men in the factory.
Xu Damao was a projectionist at the rolling mill. His salary and benefits were much better than other employees.
It was understandable that the two of them had the same taste and each took what they needed.
In addition to the rumors that she had heard over the years, just Jia Zhangshi's scolding of Qin Huairu was enough to make Qin Jingru's ears grow calluses.
Therefore, Qin Jingru had been watching Xu Damao closely after they got married.
Even Qin Jingru herself had drawn a clear line between herself and Qin Huairu. This would not only make Xu Damao give up on this idea, but also make Qin Huairu stop borrowing money from her family.
Now, seeing how Xu Damao was so concerned about Qin Huiru, who was in the other courtyard, Qin Jingru was instantly jealous.
If she did not know that Qin Huiru and Silly Zhu were preparing to get married soon, Qin Jingru would have suspected that Xu Damao and Qin Huiru had an ambiguous relationship.
Xu Damao hurriedly wiped his face, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. He smiled proudly and said,
"Sigh, look at you. You're so sensitive when it comes to your cousin. Think about it. She's already forty years old now. How can she compare to you?
Besides, do you really think I'm stupid? How many young women in the steel mill are single? Why would I need to find such an old widow with a family?”
Hearing Xu Damao's words, Qin Jingru said shyly,"
"Scram to the side. You're so glib. I'm afraid you're talking better to those women in the factory than to me, right?”
Xu Damao smiled coldly." I'm not trying to coax you, but as the saying goes, women are thirty-one flowers. You're only in your early thirties. It's the best age for a woman."
How could I abandon a beautiful wife like you and go find an old widow over forty?”
