Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Just as the neighbors were looking at them in astonishment, not understanding when He Yuzhu owed Wang Dong 500 yuan, the 4,000 yuan on the table had dropped sharply to 1,000 yuan.

Qin Huairu felt heartbroken when seeing this scene.

Just when I heard that Yi Zhonghai was calculating the living expenses of He Yuzhu and his sister, and that he needed to compensate the two siblings 4,000 yuan.

Qin Huairu's first reaction was to try every means to remarry He Yuzhu. Only in this way could she get the four thousand yuan on the table into her own hands.

It turns out that He Yuzhu is such a spendthrift!

He opened his mouth and gave He Yushui two thousand yuan.

Why should she, a little girl who got married a few years ago, ask for this money? This money belongs to her, Qin Huairu!

But no matter how she screamed in her heart, He Yushui still accepted the two thousand yuan that He Yuzhu gave her.

Seeing half of the compensation on the table gone in an instant, Qin Huairu's face was full of distress, but there was nothing she could do.

She is not He Yuzhu's wife now, and is even a stranger to He Yuzhu. She has no right to comment on the money.

But he secretly made up his mind.

After today's incident is over, I will win back He Yuzhu's heart no matter what the cost. In this way, I can also put the remaining two thousand yuan into my own pocket.

Just when Qin Huairu began to plan in his heart how to plot against He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu once again took out 500 yuan from the already limited compensation money on the table and gave it to He Yushui as compensation.

Qin Huairu's heartache was so severe that it was impossible to describe it in words.

I really want to curse He Yuzhu: a spendthrift.

But when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back.

My relationship with He Yuzhu was already not good. If I had really called him "prodigal son" just now, not only would I not be able to save the relationship between them, but it might also further deteriorate the relationship between them, which would be too much of a loss.

Seeing that He Yushui refused the 500 yuan compensation, Qin Huairu's heart suddenly blossomed. For the first time, she felt that He Yushui was a good person.

As a result, Wang Dong suddenly interrupted and forced He Yushui to accept the 500 yuan compensation that Qin Huairu thought should belong to her.

She hated Wang Dong to her core and felt that most of her current misery was caused by Wang Dong. After what happened just now, Qin Huairu's hatred for Wang Dong became even stronger.

No matter how much she hated it, she couldn't change any facts and could only accept the fact that the compensation was reduced sharply to 1,500 yuan again.

Just when Qin Huairu thought that the remaining 1,500 yuan would definitely go into He Yuzhu's pocket and eventually into his own pocket, an accident occurred before his eyes again.

He Yuzhu counted out another five hundred yuan from the table and gave it to Wang Dong, saying that it was to pay back the debt owed to Wang Dong.

The pain Qin Huairu felt was no less than being stabbed by someone.

Although he didn't know when He Yuzhu borrowed 500 yuan from Wang Dong, since He Yuzhu dared to say it in front of all the neighbors, it meant that the debt of 500 yuan was real.

Seeing that the compensation on the table had been reduced to one thousand yuan, Qin Huairu felt distressed and kept praying in his heart: He Yuzhu should stop squandering money.

Whatever Qin Huairu feared happened.

Of all the neighbors in the courtyard, the voice of Wang Dong, the one she least wanted to hear, rang out again in the yard: "Zhu Zi..."

"There are too many people in our courtyard who want to plot against you."

"If you hold this thousand dollars in your own hands, someone will take it away sooner or later."

"I have a suggestion. If you want to listen, you can listen to it. If you don't want to listen, it doesn't matter."

He Yuzhu now trusts Wang Dong very much and immediately said, "Director Wang...just tell me what you want to say."

"Although I, He Yuzhu, am called Shazhu, I am not really stupid. I know who is good to me and who is not."

Wang Dong nodded: "Since you can't manage this thousand yuan yourself, I suggest you deposit it directly with Yushui and give the passbook to Yushui for safekeeping." "When you get married again and have children in the future, Yushui will return the passbook to you."

"If you don't have children in the future, you might as well give this thousand yuan directly to your nephew. If you really can't work in the future, you will need your nephew to support you in your old age."

This time Qin Huairu really couldn't bear it anymore.

Once He Yuzhu really listened to Wang Dong's suggestion, deposited the one thousand yuan in the bank and gave it to He Yushui for safekeeping, she would have to wait until He Yuzhu had her own child before returning it. Even if she married He Yuzhu again in the future, she would not be able to get a penny from the one thousand yuan.

Even though it was very likely that speaking up now would further deteriorate the relationship with He Yuzhu, Qin Huairu couldn't help but speak up: "Zhuzi..."

"This is your money, why should you give it to He Yushui to keep it..."

"What will you do in the future if the rain takes away all this money?"

"It's better to keep your own money."

Qin Huairu's words not only worsened her relationship with He Yuzhu, but also offended He Yushui.

Looking at Qin Huairu's angry face, he asked back: "Qin Huairu..."

"This is my own money. What does it have to do with you where I put it?"

"Although Yu Shui is married, she is still my sister, and the only relative I, He Yuzhu, have in Sijiu City. I don't allow you to say that about her."

He Yushui looked at Qin Huairu with anger, and then continued: "Qin Huairu..."

"You and my brother have already divorced, so you don't have to worry about my brother's affairs..."

"I haven't even settled accounts with you for the time when you schemed against my brother, committed adultery with Yi Zhonghai, and cheated on my brother. Now you want to plot against my brother again. You are simply not a human being."

"Just now I didn't believe that someone in the Fourth Core Hospital was trying to cheat my brother out of his thousand dollars, but now I believe it."

"I didn't want to keep this thousand dollars for my brother."

"After hearing what you said just now, I decided to help my brother keep this thousand dollars."

After saying that, he turned his gaze to He Yuzhu: "Brother..."

"We'll go deposit the money later."

"You keep this thousand yuan yourself. I'm only responsible for keeping the passbook..."

"When you have your own children in the future, I will give you the passbook."

Qin Huairu fought hard for the thousand yuan. She ignored He Yuzhu's increasingly angry face and spoke again: "Zhuzi..."

"Don't listen to Yu Shui. What if he spends the money in the future?"

“It’s better to keep your own money in your own hands.”

"If you save all this thousand dollars, what will you do if you don't have money when you need to spend money in the future?"

Wang Dong sneered and replied: "Zhu Zi has a salary every month, so he will definitely not be short of money."

"As long as he doesn't indulge in drinking, whoring and gambling, that little salary will be enough for him to get married and have children in the courtyard."

"Let's take a step back. If something unexpected happens and he needs money, I can lend it to him."

At this point, Wang Dong couldn't help but glance at Qin Huairu before continuing, "I just guessed that someone in our courtyard had set his eyes on the one thousand yuan in Zhuzi's hand, but I didn't expect that there really was such a person in our courtyard."

"The one thousand yuan belongs to He Yuzhu himself. It's his business how he wants to deal with it."

"Let's take a step back and say that even if the thousand yuan was really given to Yu Shui, it would be in the hands of one of our own, which is better than being taken away by an outsider." (End of this chapter)
