Siheyuan: Started from a blind date and being cut off

"You just got home and are going out again. What are you going to do?"

Qin Huairu was washing clothes while chatting with Li Ye.

Seeing Li Ye take out a white rabbit toffee, unwrap the candy wrapper and put the toffee into his mouth, Qin Huairu muttered again: "You really don't know how to live, how can you be so prodigal? It doesn't start on the New Year's Day

I bought candy and ate it. It’s time for you to marry a wife to help you take care of the house."

Qin Huairu is a little greedy for Li Ye's White Rabbit toffee, but now she still has some integrity, her husband is still there, she has not been defeated by the cruel real life, and she cannot do such things as asking for things from men.

What's more, sugar is a scarce commodity. Most people can only eat two pieces during the Chinese New Year and happy events. This is still ordinary sugar.

No matter how greedy she was for the better and more expensive candy like White Rabbit Milk Candy, Qin Huairu couldn't control what others wanted. It was inappropriate.

"I also want to marry a daughter-in-law. Isn't this a blind date? Sister Qin, you are busy. I will go and chat with the third uncle."

Li Ye left a few words and walked to the front yard.

Qin Huairu glanced at Li Ye's back and couldn't help but feel a little envious.

We are all human beings, so why is the gap so big? Look at Xiao Li, he has become an eighth-level cook at the age of nineteen, with a monthly salary of thirty-five and a half yuan. He can run a small stove for the leader and has many hidden benefits.

, plenty of oil and water.

Look at her husband Jia Dongxu. He has studied with an eighth-level fitter master for so many years. He is already thirty years old and is still a third-level fitter. His monthly salary is 33.5 yuan.

If the whole family has urban household registration, thirty-three and a half yuan is enough for a family of six.

But she was not very lucky. She married in the city in 1956 and became pregnant with Banggen in 1957. Before Banggen was born in 1958, new household registration regulations were promulgated to prevent a large number of rural people from gathering in the city.

, it is stipulated that the child’s household registration will follow that of the mother.

In other words, only Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu are able to supply food rations to the Jia family. Qin Huairu and her children have rural household registrations and cannot provide food. If they want to eat, they can only go to Pigeon Market to buy food at a price much higher than the market price.

Therefore, Jia Dongxu's salary of more than 30 yuan is indeed a bit reluctant to support the family.

The most terrible thing is that Jia Dongxu is usually a shrewd and calculating person, but he is not good at work. After working in the steel rolling mill for so many years, there is also an eighth-level old fitter master who teaches by example. After working for so many years, he has stopped making progress.

The top-level fitter stopped and couldn't get up.

Qin Huairu couldn't help but sigh, if Xiao Li had been led by an eighth-level master, after working for so many years, he would have been rated as a fifth-level and sixth-level fitter, and he would have received a salary of fifty or sixty yuan a month.

After washing the last piece of clothing and wringing out the water, Qin Huairu went home carrying a large basin of clothes.

In winter, clothes cannot be dried outside without sunlight, and they will freeze into popsicles early tomorrow morning.

Wash it, wring it out, and take it home to dry. It happens that the house has a coal stove for heating, so hanging the clothes next to the coal stove will dry them quickly.

Qin Huairu turned around and was about to go back to the house when she was trembling with fright.

Because at the door of her house, a good-looking middle-aged man was staring at her with displeased eyes, his expression cold and a bit scary.

"Dongxu, you made no sound when you came out. You're going to scare people to death."

Qin Huairu was really frightened.

"If you didn't do anything wrong, why were you scared?"

Jia Dongxu looked gloomy and said coldly.

"I……"

Qin Huairu originally wanted to explain, but Jia Dongxu interrupted: "Shut up, don't go back to the house after washing the clothes, stare at their backs when they leave, do you want to chase them out?"

Qin Huairu was so reprimanded that she did not dare to say a word.

It is not easy for a rural girl to marry into the city and earn work points in order to have a bite of the food supply without having to do farm work every day.

Her husband's family never really looked down upon her, and they always had a sense of superiority toward her, as city people do over country people.

She felt that marrying a woman from the countryside was a gift to her, rather than because she couldn't marry a good woman in the city, so she had to choose a wife from the countryside.

Qin Huairu lowered her head, feeling extremely aggrieved. She followed Jia Dongxu into the house without daring to say a word, let alone refute. She was afraid that Jia Dongxu would kick her back to the village to do farm work if he got angry.

This is the common living condition of girls who married into the city from rural areas in this era. They behave extremely humblely in front of their husband's family. They dare not resist being beaten or scolded, so they can only accept it.

Because it is better to suffer in the city than to work in the countryside to earn work points and eat sweet potatoes.

After returning home and closing the door, Jia Dongxu asked suspiciously: "It took you so long to wash some clothes. What did you just talk to that guy in the backyard outside? You smiled so happily."

Even though you have a big belly, you don’t forget to hook up with the men in the courtyard. What do you want to do? You don’t want to stay in this home anymore. Do you want to change your home?”

Qin Huairu burst into tears when Jia Dongxu said that she had been married to Jia's family for so many years.

She gave birth to a son and a daughter to Jia Dongxu, and she was pregnant with a third one. Jia Dongxu was so worried about her, and he never seriously regarded her as a member of the family and gave her even a little bit of trust.

"Crying means crying. I haven't even cooked yet. It takes half a day to wash clothes. Both mother and child are still hungry.

Remember, you are not allowed to interact with other men except Silly Zhu in the courtyard from now on, do you hear me?"

Jia Dongxu didn't relent just because Qin Huairu cried. He gave her a harsh word and ordered her to cook.

"I know, I'll go to the cellar to get two cabbages."

Qin Huairu wiped away her tears and left the bed room.

At this time, Mrs. Jia Zhang, who had a fat face, showed up and said, "Son, please stop being suspicious all day long. How old Qin Huairu is, how old is Xiao Li in the backyard? There is no possibility at all."

"Mom, can I not understand what you are saying? I just wanted her to correct herself by giving her a scolding.

I married her and brought her home to provide her with food, so that she could work for our family, not to flirt with the men in the courtyard all day long.

Stealing a man, don’t I understand her? She wouldn’t even dare to give her ten more courages.”

This was the real purpose of Jia Dongxu's reprimanding Qin Huairu, to beat Qin Huairu to stop her from getting too close to the men in the courtyard.

Recently, Qin Huairu has become closer to three men: Yi Zhonghai, He Yuzhu, and Li Ye.

Jia Dongxu knew that Qin Huairu was close to these three men and could bring some benefits to the family and bring back some food to improve the family's life.

When Qin Huairu brought something back, Jia Dongxu didn't say anything. After eating, he put down his bowl. He was so cautious that he started to feel uncomfortable.

Especially one night, his master Yi Zhonghai called Qin Huairu out late at night to give Qin Huairu a bag of stick noodles, but he got up and went to the toilet and bumped into him.

Although nothing happened that night, Yi Zhonghai did just meet Qin Huairu, gave him a bag of noodles and left. This incident still aroused his inner vigilance.

Although Jia Dongxu just taught Qin Huairu a lesson with great confidence and majesty, in fact, his heart is empty.

After marrying such a beautiful daughter-in-law, he was not very capable as a husband, so his suspicion became more and more serious.

He had just beaten Qin Huairu, and the first thing he had to guard against was Yi Zhonghai's old Bideng.

He asked his wife to go out in the middle of the night. Although nothing happened for the time being, this old Biden's heart was definitely not clean.

The next thing to guard against is the Li Ye just now. Although Qin Huairu is eight or nine years older than Li Ye, he is still a little worried.

Because Li Ye used to send noodles to their family for free every month, there was nothing unusual on the surface, but Jia Dongxu didn't think there would be anyone doing business without money, so he wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

"Dongxu, while you were teaching Qin Huairu not to associate with other men in the courtyard, you also allowed her to associate with Silly Zhu. What on earth do you think?"

Jia Zhang couldn't understand.

At this time, Jia Dongxu's face showed a somewhat satisfied expression, and he said disdainfully: "Mom, you don't understand this. Other men have to be on guard. This idiot is just a mallet. I'm the heel."

He has been wearing a pair of pants for a long time, how can I understand who he is? He is a big injustice who helps our family improve their lives by giving blood transfusions."
