Siheyuan: Jie Hu Lou Xiao'e

The old man walked out of the house wearing a coat and said.

Then he helped Qin Huairu, who was lying on the ground, up, glanced at Si Zhu and Su Ci, and then looked at Qin Jingru.

"Who is this girl? I've never seen her before. Why is she in our yard? What's going on?"

The old man asked.

Qin Jingru saw that the uncle was looking at her and that it had nothing to do with her, so she told everything.

The first uncle and everyone were very surprised after hearing this. The third uncle had just been punished for this incident some time ago. They did not expect that this kind of thing would happen to Qin Huairu's family again.

However, this time the matter was not as complicated as the third uncle's previous matters, and the target was all directed at Qin Huairu's family.

"I didn't expect that Qin Huairu also started the business of human trafficking?"

The second uncle said angrily.

And these words immediately angered the third uncle on the side.

"In bangs, you old bastard, who are you reflecting in this strange and strange way?"

The third uncle cursed angrily.

The two exchanged words and exchanged "cordial greetings" back and forth.

"That's enough! Everyone, be quiet! We are talking about Qin Huairu's family now. If you two have anything to do, go home and talk."

The old man said.

The second uncle and the third uncle then became quiet.

"Qin Huairu, how did you do this? What do you think of your sister? Is she a commodity? What you do is worse than an animal."

The first uncle didn't protect Qin Huairu and kept saying anything, but the third uncle beside him kept rolling his eyes.

"Okay! This is our family's own business. It's not the turn of outsiders like you to take care of it. Go back and sleep."

Jia Zhang said.

Her words undoubtedly angered everyone, so everyone's accusations against Qin Huairu's family intensified.

"Qin Huairu, of course I am too lazy to take care of your family's troubles, but you must spit out the money you deceived people, otherwise I will go to the police station and sue you."

Su Ci said.

Silly Zhu on the side also nodded in agreement.

"Go ahead and sue. If you can, go ahead and make it seem like I'm stopping you." Jia Zhang said.

Su Ci sneered and looked at Qin Huairu.

"Qin Huairu, did your mother-in-law make the decision for you? If I sue you, you must have thought clearly about the consequences. When recruiting people in the factory, it is clearly stipulated that no one with a major criminal record is allowed."

After Su Ci said this, Qin Huairu panicked instantly, and the second uncle also rolled his eyes.

After some thought, Qin Huairu said tremblingly as if he had made a difficult decision.

"Okay, I promise you, I will return all the money and things you cheated to Silly Zhu."

At this time, the corner of Su Ci's mouth curled up.

"That's it? Qin Huairu, what about my things? Don't you plan to return them?"

Su Ci said.

At this time, Qin Huairu looked at Su Ci with a puzzled expression.

"Su Ci, what are you talking about? When did we take your things? Stop blackmailing people here."

Qin Huairu said. Jia Zhang also defended Qiandao.

"Why didn't you take it? I saw with my own eyes that you asked Brother Su Ci for a hundred yuan, and now you want to cheat?"

Qin Jingru said.

When Qin Huairu heard this, he was furious. He stared at Qin Jingru with his eyes, the resentment and anger in his eyes could not be concealed. It was as if he wanted to tear Qin Jingru into pieces.

With Qin Jingru as a witness, everyone agreed and urged Qin Huairu to pay back the money quickly.

"Qin Huairu, since your sister has come out to testify, you should pay back the money quickly, or we will send you to the police station."

The old man said.

Qin Huairu looked at everyone, thinking that this time he really stole the chicken but lost the rice.

But in order not to lose his job, he could only take out a few bills from his pocket and hand them to Si Zhu.

Silly Zhu took the money from Qin Huairu and put it into his pocket.

"Qin Huairu, you and I have cleared our grievances. From now on, you will follow your Yangguan Road and I will follow my single-plank bridge. We have nothing to do with each other."

After Shazhu finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Qin Huairu looked at Si Zhu's leaving figure, his heart filled with hatred. Why didn't this man listen to her?

But Silly Zhu didn't even look at her.

"Silly Zhu, since you have decided not to have any contact with Qin Huairu's family, you should be an honest person from now on. The money will be earned back slowly in the future, otherwise the future will be even worse than now."

Su Ci said.

Silly Zhu looked at Su Ci and showed a smile.

"Yeah! I know, I was blind before, and I will never associate with this family again." Silly Zhu said.

After saying that, he prepared to walk towards his house.

But as soon as he raised his feet, he seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Su Ci with some embarrassment.

"Then...what...what happened in the past...I offended you so much...I apologize to you."

Su Ci was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything. He just nodded to show that he understood.

Seeing this, Silly Zhu said nothing more and walked towards his house.

When the first man saw that Sha Zhu had left, he asked everyone to go back and have a rest early. They had to go to work tomorrow.

Everyone went back to their houses, and Su Ci vaguely seemed to hear the second uncle and the third uncle talking about how the first uncle, an old man, would criticize Sang and Huaihuai.

Soon, only Su Ci and Qin Huairu's family were left in the yard.

After everyone dispersed, Qin Huairu stood up slowly and prepared to leave.

However, Su Ci suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked her way.

Qin Huairu's eyes widened and he looked at Su Ci fiercely.

"Su Ci, you bastard, what else do you want to do, get out of my way."

Qin Huairu cursed.

Su Ci ignored Qin Huairu's yelling and asked.

"Qin Huairu, you gave me Si Zhu's money. When do you plan to pay me back my money?"

As soon as Qin Huairu heard this, he became angry.

It can be said that this time she was in a dilemma. She lost her wife and lost her army. Not only was her sister gone, but also Si Zhu's free meal ticket and labor force were gone.

Moreover, Su Ci asked him for money out of thin air.

"Su Ci, don't push yourself too far. You know whether you have given me money or not. Don't slander others here."

Qin Huairu said.

Su Ci sneered.

"Qin Huairu, of course you owe me money. You have admitted this in public. If you don't pay, when I send you to the police station, everyone in the yard will be witnesses."

Su Ci said.

"Su Ci, don't go too far!" Qin Huairu said.

The corners of Su Ci's mouth raised slightly, and he leaned over to Qin Huairu's ear and spoke in a low voice.

"I've gone too far. What can you do to me? It's just your little tricks, but Silly Zhu is not bad. If you lie to me, you are asking for trouble. If you don't pay me, I have many ways to punish you."

After Su Ci stood up, Qin Huairu looked at Su Ci angrily.

"Qin Huairu, let me tell you, don't look at me like this. It's even more shameless to deal with a shameless person like you. If you don't pay, you will be responsible for the consequences."

After Su Ci finished speaking, he was ready to leave.

Qin Huairu sat paralyzed on the ground.

He was thinking that Su Ci was the chief of the security department and a popular person in front of the factory director. Although he was angry, he had no choice but to agree to him.

"Wait!" Qin Huairu called to Su Ci.

Su Ci knew that Qin Huairu would definitely stop him because he knew the character of Qin Huairu so well, so he didn't go far.

"What's wrong? Have you figured it out? Are you ready to pay or do you want to keep delaying it?"

Su Ci looked at Qin Huairu with a playful expression.

"Su Ci, I can give you this money, but now I have no money, so I can only give it in batches and pay it off in half a year."

Qin Huairu said.

In fact, Qin Huairu's monthly salary is only about 20 yuan, and there are three children and Jia Zhang's family at home. Even if he saves money every month, it is difficult to pay it off within half a year.

"Qin Huairu, where do you think this is from me? A vegetable market? Are you still bargaining with me? Three days, only three days. If you don't give me money within three days, I will not only send you to the police station, but you won't have an easy time in the factory either.

.”

After Su Ci said this, he ignored Qin Huairu and turned to leave.

Looking at Su Ci's retreating figure, Qin Huairu could no longer hold back, and soon, the sound of crying spread throughout the courtyard.

At dawn, Qin Huairu returned home with eyes red from crying.

Seeing Qin Huairu coming back, Jia Zhang rushed to greet him and asked how he was doing.

"What else can you do? Don't you know who Su Ci is? We can't fight him, so we can only give him money."

Qin Huairu said.

Now Mrs. Jia Zhang became anxious, patted her thighs and started crying.

"Oh my god, why is our family so unlucky? How can we have any money when we encounter such a evil star?"

When Qin Huairu saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort Jia and Zhang.

"Mom, at this point, there is no other way but to sell the things at home. Otherwise, we will definitely not be able to get the money."

Qin Huairu said.

At first, Mrs. Jia Zhang was unwilling. After all, everything in her family was saved bit by bit.

But after Qin Huairu told her that if Su Ci didn't give the money within three days, Su Ci would send her to the police station, Jia Zhang had no choice but to agree.

The two of them rummaged through the boxes and cabinets overnight and found some items at home that were somewhat valuable.

Qin Huairu held a pair of earrings in his hand, "These were given to me by Dongxu when I got married. They should still be worth some money now."

After saying that, he put the earrings into a paper box in front of him.

Mrs. Jia Zhang also slowly took out a bracelet from her arms and prepared to put it into the cardboard box.

But Qin Huairu stopped him.

"Mom, what are you doing? This is what Grandma Dongxu left for you. You can't sell it for anything."

Mrs. Jia Zhang sighed and looked at the bracelet on her hand with a look of reluctance.

"This is indeed what Grandma Dongxu left to me. I also plan to leave this bracelet to Bangge and her wife in the future, but there is no other way."

One by one, the two of them put all the valuable things at home into the cardboard boxes in front of them, preparing to sell them off.

"The total of these things will cost at least seventy or eighty yuan when sold. Go to the pawn shop and talk to the boss. Maybe the boss will give you a few more yuan if he is happy."

Qin Huairu said to Jia Zhang who was holding a cardboard box in his hand.

"I know this, but what should I do with the remaining money? Now that Silly Zhu has broken up with us, who else can we ask for help?"

Jia Zhang said.

"Mom, don't worry about this, I will find a way."

Qin Huairu wiped away his tears and sent Jia Zhang out of the courtyard.

After Jia Zhang's figure disappeared at the end of the alley, Qin Huairu returned to the yard, but instead of entering his room, he turned around and entered Xu Damao's house.

Qin Huairu walked in directly to the bed without knocking and stood in front of Xu Damao.

"Da Mao, we were comrades-in-arms when we were in the small warehouse. Can you lend me twenty yuan?"

"Qin Huairu, I won't talk nonsense to you, I'll just get straight to the point. It's okay if you want me to lend you money, but you have to at least give something!"

Xu Damao said.

Qin Huairu naturally knew what Xu Damao meant, but now she was really desperate.

Qin Huairu untied his clothes, walked towards Xu Damao, and then lay on Xu Damao...

Five minutes later, Qin Huairu walked out of Xu Damao's house and returned to his own house with twenty yuan in his hand.

It was almost noon when Jia Zhang came back from outside.

Qin Huairu immediately greeted him.

"Mom, how's it going? How much did you sell it for?"

Jia Zhang breathed heavily, stood up after a while and said.

"I talked to the pawnshop owner for a long time, but the pawnshop owner was only willing to give me eighty yuan. How are you doing there? Have you borrowed the money?"

Qin Huairu did not dare to look directly at Jia Zhang, so she could only stammer that she had borrowed twenty yuan from Xu Damao.

Not only did Jia Zhang not doubt how Qin Huairu borrowed the money, but she kept praising Xu Damao for his good heart.

Time flies, three days pass quickly.

The rare ancient well in the courtyard had no ripples, and nothing happened.

"Why haven't you come back yet?"

Qin Huairu paced anxiously, today was the last day she promised to return the money to Su Ci.

It was already evening, but there was still no sign of Su Ci.

Waited in the yard for nearly an hour.

Su Cicai came back from outside.

"Qin Huairu, what are you doing at the door of my house? Are you ready with the money?"

Su Ci asked.

Then he set up the bike and walked to Qin Huairu.

"Su Ci, here is one hundred yuan. Let's clear it. Please don't trouble our family again in the future."

After Qin Huairu finished speaking, he handed the money to Su Ci.

Seeing that he had almost lost all his money to scrape together a hundred yuan and then gave it to Su Ci, Qin Huairu felt reluctant to part with it.

Su Ci took the money, counted it, and found that it was exactly one hundred, and then put the money into his pocket.

"Qin Huairu, there's something wrong with what you said. It's not that I'm causing trouble for your family, it's that you always have trouble with me. If you behave honestly in the future, you won't have such troubles."

Su Ci said.

"Su Ci, actually I really want to introduce my sister to you. I don't want to lie to you, I just want to lie to Silly Zhu."

Qin Huairu said.

Su Ci sneered.

How can Qin Huairu not be clear about his virtues?

"That's enough, Qin Huairu, stop pretending to be pitiful in front of me. I still don't know what's going on in your belly? You just want to use Qin Jingru to receive two gifts, and then become relatives with me through Qin Jingru, so that you can be legitimate.

Let me help your family, right?"

Su Ci saw that Qin Huairu still wanted to lie to him at this time, so he stopped talking and directly exposed Qin Huairu's plan.

Qin Huairu was just about to open his mouth to defend, but saw Su Ci pointing in the direction of her home.

"Qin Huairu, you understand the meaning of this gesture. I tell you to go away and stop bothering me. Don't make yourself miserable anymore."

Su Ci said.

When Qin Huairu saw this, he naturally had no shame in staying in front of Su Ci, so he had no choice but to walk towards his home.

When she walked to the door of her house, a figure that made her angry appeared in front of her.

It is her sister Qin Jingru.

Qin Huairu had just been frustrated by Su Ci, and now he was even more angry when he saw Qin Jingru.

"Qin Jingru, why are you still here and not leaving? This is not your home. Go back to your countryside."

Qin Huairu said.

Faced with Qin Huairu's scolding, Qin Jingru didn't take it seriously.

"Whether I leave or not is none of your business. Is this capital run by your family? And you're in the countryside. Have you forgotten where you came from? It's just that your life is better and you married a husband from the city.

, but it’s a pity that it disappeared within two years.”

"Snapped!"

Just as Qin Jingru finished speaking, Qin Huairu slapped her in the face.

Qin Jingru covered her face in pain and looked at Qin Huairu in shock.

"Qin Huairu, why did you hit me? Do you still think this is the past?"

Qin Jingru was like a lioness, roaring at Qin Huairu.

"Hmph! Why should I hit you? Just because I am your sister, and just because you speak rudely and insult your elders."

Qin Huairu said.

These words were like stepping on Qin Jingru's tail, which completely angered Qin Jingru.

"Qin Huairu, you have been bullying me since you were a child, and you have been bullying me until the day you got married, and now you are beating me? Let me tell you, if this was not the capital, I would never be done with you."

Qin Jingru roared.

After listening to these words, Qin Huairu finally understood that her sister had been strongly dissatisfied with her for so many years.

"Qin Jingru, let me tell you, don't be proud now. Who do you think you are? You are just a dog raised by Su Ci. You might get kicked by him one day."

Qin Huairu said mockingly.

And these words directly stimulated Qin Jingru's heart. She could feel that Su Ci was lukewarm towards her.

But Qin Jingru was very concerned about face. He tried his best to marry in the city. In addition to having no worries about food and clothing in the future, the most important thing was that he had face and would be able to show off in the countryside.

"Qin Huairu, where do you think you are going to be? You live on drinking human blood every day, and now Silly Zhu won't help you? What will you do in the future?"

Qin Jingru's words were equally sharp, and every sentence pierced Qin Huairu's heart.

"That's better than you. At least I have a serious job and I don't need to be supported by others. At least I can support myself, unlike you who can only rely on others to support you."

Qin Huairu replied not to be outdone.

"Oh! You're so amazing. You have a serious job? You can't even support yourself, and you have the nerve to say that?"

Qin Jingru said.

This sentence completely angered Qin Huairu.

"Go away, there is no place for you to stay here, you can sleep on the street tonight!"

Qin Huairu cursed.

"You're just sleeping on the street. Brother Su Ci has found a good place for me. It's much better than your home. If it weren't for my sister's sake, I wouldn't come to your home today!"

After Qin Jingru finished speaking, he walked towards the door of the courtyard.

When Qin Huairu saw Qin Jingru leaving, he wiped his tears and entered the house.

Upon seeing this, Jia Zhangshi rushed forward to comfort him.

"What's wrong? Who were you arguing with at the door just now? I heard it in the house."

Jia Zhangshi asked.

"Who else could it be? My sister Qin Jingru, she came here specially to ridicule me."

Qin Huairu said aggrievedly.

"This sister of yours is just a wolf. If we hadn't brought her to the city, where would she be today? Not only did she not repay us, but she actually dared to add insult to injury?"

Jia Zhangshi said.

Qin Huairu thought of Qin Jingru's face just now and scolded her again to her mother-in-law, and then she felt a little more comfortable.

…

The next morning, Qin Huairu came to the factory early.

In order to earn more, Qin Huairu would come to the factory early to work overtime during this period.

But just as she entered the venue, she met Qin Jingru again.

"Why are you in our factory? Get out now, or I'll ask someone to kick you out."

Qin Huairu was already in a bad mood, but it became even worse after seeing Qin Jingru.

"Try me to leave? I'm afraid that's impossible. Yesterday I asked Brother Su Ci for help and arranged a job for me. Now I'm managing files in the Security Department. It's thirty-one yuan a month, which is much higher than you."

Qin Jingru said.

Looking at Qin Jingru, he looked like a villain who has succeeded.

Qin Huai was furious.

If it weren't for me, would you know Su Ci?

You two just wait for me. One day, I will make you both pay the price.
