The winner of life in the courtyard

Chapter 86 Endurance

Middle Court.

Jia Zhang held Bang Geng's hand and approached the door. Jia Zhang gently pulled Bang Geng's hand and said, "My dear grandson, do you remember what grandma told you?"

"Remember!"

Banggeng nodded vigorously.

"You're so good. Tomorrow, grandma will take you to eat steamed buns!"

"Just, you can't tell anyone, understand?"

"Grandma, I won't tell anyone!"

Bang Geng responded seriously.

"it is good!"

Only then did Jia Zhang let go of Banggeng's hand and knocked on the door of the Jia family.

Qin Huairu was cooking, making cornmeal porridge and steamed corn bread with pickles.

Jia Zhang and Bang Geng came in. Jia Zhang collapsed on the kang and said to Qin Huairu, "Qin Huairu, when is lunch? Can't you see that Bang Geng is hungry?"

Qin Huairu responded, "Right away!"

After Banggeng entered the room, he didn't look at Qin Huairu, but went up to his sister Xiaodang.

After eating the meat buns, he wanted to show off to someone, but he promised his grandmother not to tell anyone, otherwise he would not be able to eat them the next day.

Banggeng, who had been clever since childhood, thought that he couldn't say it, but he could let people guess it themselves.

The second uncle had smelled the smell in the front yard before.

Then, as long as I hang around in front of Xiaodang, Xiaodang will definitely be able to smell it.

"Brother, what did you eat?"

"It smells so good!"

"Mom, mom, my brother is eating meat, I want to eat too!"

Xiaodang really lived up to Banggeng's expectations. He immediately smelled the meat in Banggeng's mouth and started shouting at Qin Huairu.

When Qin Huairu heard her daughter's call, she was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what it meant.

She glanced at Jia Zhang, then her gaze fell back on Xiao Dang, and said, "Xiao Dang, are you craving for meat? Tomorrow, Mom will go and cut the meat!"

"Mom, mom, it's not me, it's my brother, my brother really eats meat!"

"There's still meat stuck in his teeth!"

"I saw it all!"

Xiaodang raised his finger and pointed at the stick, speaking righteously.

"I don't!"

Bang Geng naturally denied it flatly.

Bang Geng rushed to Qin Huairu, opened his mouth and asked Qin Huairu to check it.

When Xiao Dang said there was meat residue between his teeth, he quickly licked it off with his tongue. In his opinion, the absence of meat residue was enough to prove his innocence.

"Mom, I didn't steal the meat buns!"

"real!"

Unfortunately, Banggeng's explanation is really a confession, a typical case of trying to cover up one's own faults.

Qin Huairu reached out and touched Banggeng's head without pointing out anything.

"Mom knows Bang Geng didn't eat anything secretly!"

She has always known about Jia Zhang's affair.

The reason why she didn't point it out was because Jia Zhang would occasionally bring her son Banggeng with her.

Qin Huairu doesn't seem to favor boys over girls, but in fact, she still favors boys over girls.

After all, it didn't matter if her son got to eat the meat and she herself didn't have much to eat. Little did she know that she herself had nothing to eat, and as a money-loser in Jia Zhang's mouth, Xiao Dang had even less to eat.

"Woooo..."

Xiaodang felt aggrieved when he heard Qin Huairu's words.

When Jia Zhang heard Xiaodang crying, she immediately yelled, "Stop crying!"

"You're a money-loser, and you still want to eat meat. It's good enough that you have something to eat!"

"Still crying?"

"If you cry again I'll throw you away!"

After Jia Zhang's harsh threats, Xiao Dang didn't dare to cry out loud. He could only stand there sobbing, as if he was going to pass out at the next moment.

"Don't cry, Xiaodang. Mom will go buy meat tomorrow!"

Qin Huairu walked to Xiaodang, squatted down with difficulty, and hugged the crying Xiaodang.

She had to pretend to be ignorant even though she knew the truth!
Once she really fell out with Jia Zhang, she was unsure what her future would be like.

Even though she bargained with Jia Zhang before, saying that she wanted to remarry, she knew that those words were just talk. How could a man want her, a married woman with three children?
Even if he really finds someone willing to marry him, she will definitely not accept her child!

But if she left the child in the Jia family, based on Jia Zhang's attitude, Qin Huairu felt that it was no different from killing her own child. She could only persuade herself again and again, to be patient, to be patient, and wait for her to take over!

Unfortunately, Qin Huairu didn't understand that the more she endured, the more Jia Zhang would become more demanding!

"Cry, cry, cry all day long!"

"I'll lose you sooner or later!"

In Jia Zhang's eyes, her daughter is a money-loser. It's good enough to give her food to eat. If she wants anything else, she is just dreaming!

Qin Huairu comforted Xiaodang and got up to bring the meal to the table.

"I won't eat it!"

"I'm so angry!"

Jia Zhang was full of meat buns, and she didn't want to eat the steamed buns made of three-grain flour and the cornmeal porridge that was so spicy on the table.

As for Bang Geng, he sat down at the table.

Although he also ate the meat bun, he only ate one and his stomach was not completely full.

So, Banggeng still ate a steamed bun and a bowl of cornmeal porridge.

But my appetite is now half less than before.

……

East Cross Courtyard.

Shen Zhiping and Liu Wanqing divided the work and cooperated with each other. They quickly processed the big rooster they bought and put it in the pot.

This time, Shen Zhiping made roast chicken with potatoes.

The two men did not process the two fish and just hung them under the porch to freeze.

Cut the meat in half, squeeze out the oil from the fat, cut the lean meat into small pieces and add it directly to the roast chicken with potatoes.

As the aroma of roast chicken and potatoes wafted away, the residents in the courtyard began to sniff again.

“Oh, this smell!”

"Could it be that Engineer Shen and his wife from the East Cross Courtyard have returned?"

"Does this need to be said?"

"In our hospital, besides He Daqing, only Engineer Shen's girlfriend has this skill!"

A group of women comrades who had just finished their meal gathered together and whispered.

In the backyard, the deaf old lady smelled the fragrance and sniffed hard, as if this was the same as her eating it.

However, the more the deaf old lady inhaled the fragrance, the more she missed Sha Zhu.

"Three months!"

"In nine months, my eldest grandson will be back!"

"Don't worry, I can wait!"

The deaf old lady looked towards the house that used to be the Xu family's, now Lou Xiao'e's.

Lou Xiao'e divorced Xu Damao, but she did not move back to the Lou family, but stayed in the courtyard.

Now her family background is with Xu Damao's family, and they are hired farmers.

But if she moved back to the Lou family, it would be hard to say.

"Silly Zhuzi, your wife has planned everything for you!"

"From now on, you must be filial to your wife!"

The deaf old lady muttered softly, and looked towards the direction of the east wing again, her eyes flickering, and no one knew what she was planning.

……

Middle courtyard, Jia's house.

When Bang Geng smelled the fragrance, he became very greedy.

He came out of his house and followed the smell to the outside of the east courtyard.

However, the small gate leading to the east courtyard was locked from the inside, and Banggeng could not enter the east courtyard at all.

He finally left reluctantly.

However, Banggeng did not go far, but hid in the corner, staring at the small gate of the east wing.

When Qin Huairu saw Banggeng going out, she thought he was going out to play and didn't ask any more questions.

Jia Zhang lay on the kang for a while, and fell asleep without her knowing when.

These days, Jia Zhang has gained some weight.

How can you not get fat if you do nothing but go out to eat from time to time?

Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang who was sleeping soundly, her eyes flickering and the expression on her face changing several times.

She thought of Lou Xiao'e in the backyard. Faced with Xu Damao's affair outside, she simply divorced him and even went to work as an accountant in a steel rolling mill.

But what about her?
Although she can take over the steel mill after she has a baby, Jia Dongxu was a fitter before. If she takes over, she will most likely continue to be a fitter. Can she, a woman, do that?
