Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Chapter 382 Qin Huairu's New Plan (Second Update)
Perhaps because He Yuzhu bought a bicycle as a dowry for his sister, the yard was particularly lively on the day of He Yushui's wedding.

Most of the residents in the yard were happy that He Yushui could marry a public security officer, except the Jia family and the Yi family.

Especially after seeing that He Yuzhu actually got a bicycle for He Yushui as a dowry, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu's faces suddenly darkened.

According to their calculations, He Yuzhu should have no money left.

But now he was able to get back a bicycle worth two hundred yuan as a dowry for He Yushui, which meant that He Yuzhu still had secrets that they didn't know about.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, who are determined to control He Yuzhu.

Of course, although they were dissatisfied, the two did not show it.

After all, they still want to continue sucking He Yuzhu's blood.

If He Yuzhu is angered and the two sides go their separate ways, it would be a waste of time and effort.

Moreover, He Yushui's target is a public security officer, who is definitely not as easy to fool as He Yuzhu. If he offends them and they come to cause trouble for him, it will not only be a loss, but he may even be arrested.

After all, the two of them did a lot of bad things behind He Yuzhu's back.

Jia Zhang's face looked even uglier than Qin Huairu's.

He had long regarded the money in He Yuzhu's hands as his own.

He Yuzhu spent more than two hundred yuan to buy a bicycle for Yu Shui as a dowry. In his opinion, it was just spending the Jia family's money. How could he not be angry?

He cursed while eating: "How can a money-loser like He Yushui ride such a good bike? My Banggeng doesn't even have a bike."

"Shazhu is indeed a fool."

"It's worth more than 200 yuan, and you can give it away as soon as you ask..."

Seeing her mother-in-law scolding her, Qin Huairu quickly reminded her: "Mom..."

"Can you please speak softly? Don't let the pillars and the rain hear you."

"Yu Shui's target is the police. What if he finds out that you called his wife a money-loser and comes to cause trouble?"

"It might be a good thing for our family if Zhuzi gave Yushui a bicycle as a dowry."

"Yushui is his sister and she even gave him a bicycle as a dowry. Our Banggeng is his godson, so to be fair, we should give him a house."

Jia Zhangshi was even more calculating than Qin Huairu, otherwise she would not have been able to raise Jia Dongxu on her own and find him a wife.

He immediately leaned over to Qin Huairu's ear and said, "Huairu..."

"Have you set your sights on the house where Rainwater lives?"

Qin Huairu nodded: "Banggeng is getting bigger and bigger. He can't always sleep with us. He should have a house of his own."

"I think the room with rainwater is just right for Banggeng."

"After Yu Shui gets married, the room will be empty."

"I'll go find Shazhu in two days."

"He gave his own sister a bicycle, so it is reasonable for him to give his godson a house, otherwise I will have a fight with him."

The anger and dissatisfaction on Jia Zhang's face were instantly replaced by a smile.

He even gave a thumbs up to his daughter-in-law Qin Huairu: "Huairu... you are really awesome..."

"As long as we can get the house with the rain back here, just tell me if you need any help."

"Mom will never hold you back."

…………

The next night, Qin Huairu mentioned to He Yuzhu that Banggeng should move to Yushui's room.

I thought He Yuzhu would nod readily.

What surprised Qin Huairu was that He Yuzhu did not immediately nod to agree to his request, and even showed a hesitant expression, saying that the house belonged to Yu Shui, and even if Yu Shui got married, she had to get his consent before giving the house to Bang Geng.

Qin Huairu didn't expect that Sha Zhu would dare to reject her proposal. She was incredulous, but she couldn't force He Yuzhu to give the house to Bang Geng. She could only continue what He Yuzhu said. "Zhu Zi..."

"Sister Qin has no choice."

"You're getting bigger and bigger. It's impossible for you to stay with me when you become a grown man. I beg you for this."

"Why don't you go ask the rain tomorrow."

"If you agree, I'll let Bangteng move in the day after tomorrow."

He Yuzhu didn't dare let Qin Huairu stay here any longer, for fear that he would lose control one day and agree to let Beng Geng move into Yu Shui's house, which would be a big problem.

Because only he himself knew that the house no longer belonged to him from the moment Yu Shui got married.

Moreover, Wang Dong had clearly told me that my sister and I could live in the two rooms, but no third person could be allowed to live there, otherwise he would take back the two rooms in advance.

By then, the news that he had lost the two ancestral homes of the He family would spread throughout the yard.

I have never had much of a reputation in Siheyuan. If this matter were to get out, my reputation would surely be ruined.

Not only was he unable to find a wife, but people would avoid him whenever they saw him.

So no matter what, he couldn't let Banggeng live in He Yushui's house.

After Qin Huairu left, He Yuzhu opened the door carefully. After confirming that there was no one in the yard, he quickly slipped out of the house and disappeared into the middle courtyard.

Ten minutes later, he and Wang Dong appeared at the same time in a box not far outside the courtyard.

Wang Dong tightened his cotton coat and said dissatisfiedly: "He Yuzhu..."

"You called me here in such a cold weather. If there's nothing else to do, just wait for me to make things difficult for you in the kitchen."

"Wang Dong, do I really need your help this time?" He Yuzhu asked anxiously.

"Didn't Yu Shui get married?"

"Her house became vacant."

"Sister Qin came to me just now and wanted Banggeng to move in."

"But you said before that no one except me and Yu Shui can live in the two rooms, otherwise they will be taken back early."

"But I don't know how to refuse Sister Qin..."

"Can you help me?"

"It can avoid offending Sister Qin, and at the same time, I won't have to take back the main house in the middle courtyard where I live in advance."

"How dare you think that?" Wang Dong said unhappily after hearing this.

"There's no such good thing. You have to give me all the benefits."

"There is a way, but you will definitely be labeled a loser."

He Yuzhu saw that Wang Dong had a solution, so he quickly asked, "What is it?"

"As long as you don't take over the main house where I live and don't tell anyone that I sold my ancestral home to you, you can be a spendthrift."

Wang Dong saw that He Yuzhu had no objection, so he said, "Since you are not worried about others calling you a spendthrift, then this matter can be easily resolved."

"Didn't you suddenly bring back a bicycle when Yu Shui got married?"

"Just say that the money for the bicycle was exchanged for the room where Yu Shui lived."

"That room originally belonged to He Yushui. Now that she is getting married, it should be replaced with her dowry."

"That house no longer belongs to the He family."

"Qin Huairu has no reason to continue asking you for that room."
