Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 61: Polite
After wiping his eyes which had become wet without him noticing, He Yushui stood up and opened the door. After seeing Qin Huairu, he asked expressionlessly, "Sister-in-law Jia, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"No, sister-in-law, I just saw that there was no movement in your room and Zhuzi's room, so I came to check on you. You haven't eaten yet, right? Zhuzi is not feeling well today, Yushui, why don't you come to our house to have a bite?"

When Qin Huairu heard He Yushui's address, her heart skipped a beat. As expected, what happened yesterday had made He Yushui feel resentful towards her. This was not a good sign.

Sha Zhu only has this one sister, and even if her bones are broken, her tendons are still connected. If He Yushui rejects her, it will be hard to say what will happen to her in the future.

Because of what happened this morning, Qin Huairu now doesn't dare to go to Sha Zhu's house alone. If He Yushui says something to Sha Zhu again, the relief that is about to be obtained may be lost.

"Sister-in-law Jia, I'm not hungry now, so I won't go to your house to eat. Thank you for calling me."

He Yushui forced a smile and spoke extremely politely, as polite as if he were a stranger.

She did blame Qin Huairu. If it weren't for her, so many things wouldn't have happened in their family.

But this was all caused by Silly Brother himself, so Qin Huairu cannot be blamed, so she has this attitude now.

"Who wouldn't be hungry? Yushui, if you don't want to go to my house, I'll bring it to you."

After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she didn't even listen to He Yushui's response and trotted back home.

Not long after, he walked into He Yushui's room carrying a plate and a lunch box.

He Yushui was a little overwhelmed by her sudden enthusiasm. He just stood there awkwardly and said, "Sister-in-law Jia, I'm really not hungry. You should take these back to Banggeng and Xiaodang."

"I've saved some food for Bang Geng and Xiao Dang. Yu Shui, I know you're feeling uncomfortable. Let's have a meal together and just tell us what's bothering you."

Qin Huairu moved quickly. There were already two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and she closed the door.

Since she had done so much, He Yushui had no choice but to sit down.

Looking at the radishes, potatoes, and cabbages on the plate, and the steamed bun and two corn breads in the lunch box, I didn't know how to start eating.

Qin Huairu stuffed the steamed bun into He Yushui's hand and said a little embarrassedly: "Yushui, you eat the steamed bun first, and if it's not enough, you can eat the corn bread. I have no choice. Banggeng and Xiaodang have eaten a lot recently. I left them a steamed bun with two cups of flour for lunch tomorrow. This is the only one they have. Please don't despise it."

"Sister-in-law Jia, you'd better take it back. If I eat it, what will Banggeng and Xiaodang eat tomorrow?"

He Yushui was planning to eat it, but when he heard this, he put the steamed bun back.

This is the food reserved for the child. What would happen if she ate it?

If Qin Huairu tells others about this, will she still be able to live in this courtyard?
"It's okay. I'll go to the cafeteria to buy some and bring them back tomorrow at noon."

Qin Huairu put the steamed buns back into the bowl in front of He Yushui, and picked up the steamed bread herself, and continued, "Yushui, are you still mad at me? I didn't expect it to turn out like that yesterday. You know my mother-in-law, she's a very careless person. If you're still angry, just hit me a couple of times to vent your anger. This is my fault."

"Sister Qin, this matter has nothing to do with you. You explained it to my brother when he came out. I was just mad at you for washing my brother's clothes yesterday. After all, if this matter gets out, my brother really won't be able to find me a sister-in-law."

He Yushui put the steamed bun back into the lunch box, picked up another steamed bun and started eating.

She was really a little hungry, but she didn't listen to Qin Huairu's words at all.

The reason I said that was just because I wanted to finish eating quickly and let Qin Huairu leave quickly.

"Yushui, I was wrong about this. I just wanted to thank Zhuzi, but now it has become like this, and I feel really bad about it."

Qin Huairu lowered her eyes slightly, with a hint of bitterness in her words.

"It's all in the past, Sister Qin, don't take it to heart. I'm a little tired, Sister Qin, you can take these back."

He Yushui took two bites of the food and didn't want to continue talking.

Qin Huairu was clearly apologizing, but she felt suffocated and uncomfortable. Qin Huairu's behavior made her feel like she had done something wrong. "Yushui, if you are tired, go to bed early. I will ask my mother-in-law to bring food to Zhuzi."

After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she closed the lunch box again and walked out of the room carrying the plate.

She eased the relationship with He Yushui by using a steamed bun and some vegetables, which made her know how to get along with He Yushui in the future.

This guy is also a soft-hearted person, but he is a little smarter than Shazhu.

"Huai Ru, why did you come back so soon? What did He Yushui say?"

As soon as she got home, Jia Zhang immediately took the lunch box, opened it and found that the steamed buns were still there, so she asked anxiously.

Qin Huairu took a sip of water and said with a smile: "It's no problem. I still feel a little uncomfortable. When she comes back, I will just go over and visit her more often."

"That's good. This damn girl is sensible."

After saying this, Jia Zhang broke off half a steamed bun and started eating it along with the one Qin Huairu brought back.

"Mom, please save some food. You can take some steamed bread and some leftovers to Zhuzi later. I won't go."

Qin Huairu looked at her mother-in-law wolfing down the food and quickly reminded her.

"This idiot Zhu doesn't even know how to cook at home. He refuses to go to work after being beaten a few times. He is such a loser."

Jia Zhang was enjoying her meal, but when she heard Qin Huairu's words, she immediately started cursing.

Qin Huairu didn't respond, but just picked up Xiao Huaihua and started feeding her.

……

into the night.

The front yard of the quadrangle is Zhou Weimin's home.

Zhou Weimin was holding the book he had just borrowed today, but his attention was not on the book at all. Instead, he was thinking about whether he should try to buy two bicycles for his younger brother and sister.

He has made a lot of money from the space in the past few months. It would be better to give the money to his younger brothers and sisters to buy something instead of leaving it in the space to collect dust.

The guard was about to go to work, and he couldn't just ride his bike and let his brother walk to the factory.

The same goes for Wei Hong. Before, she was accompanied by guards when she went back and forth, so there was no need to worry about her safety on the road. Now she goes back and forth alone, and it is much safer with a bicycle.

Thinking of this, Zhou Weimin decided to buy the parts tomorrow and find someone to assemble them.

In a few days everyone will be on holiday and there will be no place to remove the bicycle stamps.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Wei Min, Wei Min."

Xu Damao's voice came from outside the house.

"Brother Damao, come in quickly. You went to the northern suburbs to show the movie. How did you end up like this?"

Zhou Weimin opened the door and saw Xu Damao looking a little embarrassed, so he immediately welcomed him into the house.

Xu Damao said with a gloomy face: "Don't mention it. I met a tiger woman today. She almost welded me to the pillar of the machine repair shop."
