Siheyuan: Me! Silly Zhu and his father cut off Hu Qinhuairu

Chapter 6 Let’s live together

These days we are short of food and clothing.

It's not easy for people in the city.

Not to mention rural people.

The work in the fields cannot be left behind. There is endless farm work to be done every day, but the family still has nothing to eat.

All year round, it is difficult to eat even oil and water, let alone meat and fish.

Qin Huairu's family has long been running out of food leftover, and it will probably be exhausted by the Mid-Autumn Festival at best.

Based on this calculation, there is at least more than a month left before the autumn harvest.

This means that this month, the Qin family has no extra food.

It's impossible for their family to go hungry and drink cold water without eating, right?

Besides, the work in the fields cannot be left behind. If you don’t eat, you won’t be able to do anything if you don’t have the strength.

This made Qin Huairu's father very worried.

As the head of the family, the burden of supporting the family falls on him.

But what can he do?

Ask relatives or neighbors to borrow some food. The problem is that other families are not rich either.

Besides, even if someone really has it, who would be willing to lend it out?

There is nothing for adults to do to resist hunger.

Rice soup with wild vegetables, a little pickles, or sorghum and bran can make a living for a while.

There is really no other way. Grinding tree bark and vegetable roots into powder can still be done.

However, this is not a long-term solution after all.

After all, there is still more than a month until the autumn harvest!

Even adults may not be able to handle it, let alone two children at home.

Thinking of this, Qin's father's head was so big that he was so sad that he could only squat on the ground and smoke a dry cigarette.

He kept sighing from his mouth.

After thinking about it, he finally thought of a way, which was to get Qin Huairu married as soon as possible.

Moreover, he has found them all, and it is in Zhangjiacun next door.

Although the other party is older, there is nothing wrong with him, he is easy to talk to, and he is very polite.

As soon as I heard that the Qin family was about to run out of food.

Although I couldn't give the bride price, I immediately agreed to give the Qin family thirty kilograms of stick noodles as a bride price.

This suddenly solved Father Qin's worries.

Father Qin was overjoyed. This was an unexpected surprise.

Thirty pounds of stick noodles, which is enough for an adult to eat for a month.

If you calculate it this way, you can save a little on food.

If he quickly urges Qin Huairu to get married and go to someone else's house, he will have one less mouth to eat.

It can save an adult's three-month rations inside and out.

Wouldn’t the problem of running out of food at home be solved?

Everything has been settled and the two families have discussed it, and they just have to wait to send the person there.

However, Qin Huairu refused to comply.

When she learned that her parents wanted her to marry a widower who was old and frail enough to be her grandfather.

Qin Huairu's heart was broken. She would rather die than obey and had a big fight with her parents.

In anger, he ran directly to Sijiucheng to join his relatives.

Finally, Qin Huairu ate and drank freely at a relative's house. After about a week, she really couldn't stay any longer.

Then I agreed to go on a blind date in the city, hoping to find a suitable person to marry.

Only then did Jia Dongxu get a big bargain.

Qinhuai Ru'e was very sick. She didn't eat much at Jia's house just now.

First of all, I couldn't hide my face. After all, I was here for a blind date. It was my first time in someone else's home.

Girls, you have to act more reserved and leave a good impression on others.

Qin Huairu ate her rice in small bites, somewhat unable to let go.

Secondly, Mrs. Jia Zhang felt like she was reincarnated as an evil spirit, wishing she could finish the entire bowl of braised pork by herself.

Qin Huairu just stretched out her chopsticks and tasted the meat, and the bottom of the bowl of meat was gone.

Moreover, I saw that she had some meat.

Jia Zhang's eyes were not very friendly, as if she wanted to eat someone, which made people panic.

Only then did Qin Huairu find a reason to go to the latrine and come out to take a breath.

This time in He Daqing's home, Qin Huairu felt indescribably comfortable and at ease.

She was so hungry that she just lowered her head to eat and had no time to talk to He Daqing.

She was holding a white-flour steamed bun in one hand and chopsticks in the other.

I took a small bite of the white flour steamed bun, put a piece of braised pork on it, and chewed it a few times.

He held the bowl with both hands again and took a sip of the steaming broth.

Then he squinted his eyes and showed a happy smile on his face.

He Daqing looked at Qin Huairu and liked him even more.

"It seems like it will be easy to make a living in the future!"

Obviously, Qin Huairu must have often had enough to eat when she was in the countryside.

But fortunately, she doesn't look sallow and skinny now.

Instead, there is meat where there should be meat, and thin where there should be skinny.

Not to mention her plump figure, her waist is quite slim.

There is still some baby fat on the face.

After tidying up a little, she must be a beautiful girl, much better than the girls in the city.

Moreover, Qin Huairu's character now does not look like a white lotus like in the original work.

He pretends to be pitiful when meeting others and wants others to help him.

Now she looks a bit innocent, cute, and generous.

It’s right to think about it.

As long as there is no scourge like Jia Zhang, who is turning a deaf ear to her and transmitting to her the idea of ​​​​eating and being lazy all day long,

Qin Huairu will not become like in the original work.

He Daqing saw that the time was ripe and planned to confess to Qin Huairu.

"Big sister, I'm not telling you, you will definitely regret choosing Jia Dongxu!"

"How about we live together? You see, I am also single, and we just make a couple. I am not bragging. As long as you are with me, I guarantee that you will live a good life!"

"Follow me, and you will be the best in this compound from now on!"

"Brother He, are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Seeing He Daqing's sudden attitude, Qin Huairu felt a little embarrassed and blushed, looking indescribably charming.

Girls, after all, are thin-skinned.

Even if he means it, he will pretend to be reserved and tactful.

What's more, they just met.

He Daqing became bolder. Since his cards were shown, he had nothing to be embarrassed about and went all out.

He took Qin Huairu's hand immediately.

"Don't be like this, Brother He, it won't be good if someone sees you!"

Qin Huairu struggled a few times, lowering her head and her face turned red even more intensely. She did not dare to raise her head to look into He Daqing's eyes.

"To tell you the truth, Qin Huairu, I'm attracted to you!"

"If you follow me, the small independent courtyard will be yours from now on. If you want, you can bring your parents over to live with you."

“I’ll serve you delicious food and drink, and I’ll make you look good too!”

He Daqing ran out of good things to say and began to deceive Qin Huairu.

Sometimes things are so simple between men and women these days.

There aren’t so many twists and turns, it’s all about seeing the right eye.

Otherwise, someone married a beautiful wife with just two white-flour steamed buns.

These are all real things that happened.

Women have soft ears, and He Daqing knew this very well.

He said all the good things and showed his best conditions. Anyway, he would brag about it first and get the person first.
