Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 215 Staggering
"Wei Min is here too. I'm coming over to return the money to Uncle He."

When Qin Huairu saw Zhou Weimin, she smiled awkwardly and started taking money out of her pocket one by one.

Zhou Weimin nodded and said casually: "Well, I just happened to come to see Uncle He for something."

"Wei Min is here just to be a witness. If you pay me back, I won't ask you for it again."

He Daqing watched Qin Huairu taking the money and suddenly felt that it was too early to let Sha Zhu go. He should let this silly boy see how rich the Jia family is.

"Uncle He, this is forty-one dollars and fifty cents. Please check it out. If it's right, I'll go back first. The child is still waiting at home."

Qin Huairu stroked the money twice with some pain in her heart before handing it to He Daqing.

He Daqing put away the money and said expressionlessly: "No need to order, I've been watching. This is a lesson for you. Stay away from Shazhu in the future."

He didn't bother to try to hide it and told Qin Huairu openly that he was the one who caused the trouble in her family.

Since the previous gentle warnings were useless, I will make it clear this time. If Qin Huairu continues to be rude, there will be nothing more to say in the future. I will just have to use direct force.

"Uncle He, I never meant to ruin Zhuzi's reputation, I..."

He Daqing stretched out his hand to interrupt Qin Huairu's explanation, looked at Qin Huairu with disdain and said, "You know what you are thinking. Did Yi Zhonghai teach you this despicable method? Look at what happened to him now. Don't talk nonsense to me."

"Uncle He, Qin Huairu has paid back the money, so I'm leaving first."

At this time, Zhou Weimin suddenly said goodbye with a smile, still with a gentle smile on his face, and nodded to Qin Huairu, as if he had not heard their conversation.

He Daqing nodded and said meaningfully, "Thank you for your hard work. Your mood has been ruined today. Let's have a drink together some other time when you are free."

"Then I won't bother you anymore, Uncle He. I will pay attention."

Qin Huairu listened to the conversation between the two and just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Only at this time did she realize that all her previous little calculations were actually seen clearly by others.

People just didn't want to expose her because they thought it would get them into trouble, not because she hid it so well.

He staggered back home and slammed the door behind him.

Qin Huairu wanted to sit down and her leg hit the corner of the stool in a panic, and she gasped in pain.

But even the pain couldn't free her from the extreme embarrassment and shame.

Her messy thoughts made it impossible for her to think clearly for a moment. When did she reveal her true colors? Were all people laughing at her, or were only He Daqing and Zhou Weimin able to see through her thoughts?

Qin Huairu's current mood is like that of a social animal in the future who has graduated from school and worked for a few years, showing off the space diaries she wrote when she was in school in front of everyone in the company. She wishes she could go back and strangle herself to death.

She was taking things for granted and didn't think that Yi Zhonghai could be driven out of the yard, so how could Yi Zhonghai's idea escape the eyes of these people in the yard.

Qin Jingru looked at her cousin who had returned like this after going out, and asked anxiously in a low voice: "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

She just felt that the city was so scary and something could happen at any time.

For a moment, she even thought that living in the countryside would be nice.

Qin Huairu barely suppressed the embarrassment in her heart and said softly to Qin Jingru: "No, nothing, I have taken care of the affairs in Jingru's yard, and no one will come to trouble our family again. You can live here and take care of the child. I will not let you down."

"Well, I will listen to my cousin and take good care of the child. I won't cause any trouble for you, sister."

Qin Jingru nodded nonchalantly, saying that she would live there peacefully for only half a month. As long as she had food to eat and money to earn, she didn't care if anything happened to her cousin's family.

Qin Huairu looked at Qin Jingru steadily, and suddenly asked: "Jingru, I want to ask you, if I let you live in the city forever, would you be willing?"

Since the people in the yard have already seen through her little thoughts, and unless something unexpected happens, no one will help her family in the future, there is no need for the mother-in-law Jia Zhang to care about it anymore.

In fact, it is impossible to control her. The most powerful person she can find is the leader in the factory.

Not to mention whether the factory leaders have the ability to do so, I don’t know how much money it would cost if I wanted them to intervene, and I might even have to invest my own money.

Paying so much just to save a wicked mother-in-law with a ruined reputation is a thankless task no matter how you look at it.

Instead of wasting time, she might as well let Qin Jingru stay and help her take care of the child.

Although Qin Jingru doesn't have a fixed amount of money, she is still able to help clean up the house and listen to her.

The money used to save Jia Zhang can be used as Qin Jingru's food and benefits in the future. It will definitely be used to reform Jia Zhang, and there might even be a lot left over.

"Yes, of course I do. Sister, life in the city is so good, and I'm not stupid, why wouldn't I want to stay in the city forever."

Qin Jingru nodded heartlessly, looking at her cousin in some confusion.

What kind of question is this? How many people in the countryside don’t envy people in the city?

This cousin of hers has been married to her brother-in-law in the city for so many years, and many people in the village say that her cousin has become a phoenix.

"When I have rested, go back and bring some clothes. You can live here from now on. You will have plenty of food and drink. I will give you one dollar a month. If you are willing, go back and talk to your uncle and aunt about it."

After Qin Huairu said this, Qin Jingru was stunned for a while, and then happily hugged Qin Huairu's arm.

"Sister, I do. I definitely do."

But after being happy, she asked worriedly, "Sister, will your mother-in-law agree if I stay here?"

"Looking at the situation at the street office and the detention center, my mother-in-law will probably need several years of rehabilitation this time. You don't have to worry about that."

When Qin Huairu talked about this matter, she became very calm, as if this matter had nothing to do with her family.

"You've seen what happened to our family in the yard. Keep an eye on Bang Geng and Xiao Dang and don't let them get into conflict with the people in the yard. If we don't cause trouble, the people in the yard will definitely not take the initiative to cause trouble for a widow like me. Do you understand?"

"Uh-huh……"

Qin Jingru nodded repeatedly. She felt that her cousin was even more terrifying than the militia captain in the team.

……

noon the next day.

Zhou Weimin had just finished his meal and was about to go into the space for a nap.

"Director Zhou, I'm taking a rest. Sorry to bother you."

Zhou Weimin waved his hand without getting up and asked casually, "I'm just lying down to think about something. Secretary Wei, does Director Yang want to talk to me about something?"
