Siheyuan: Shazhu's Leisurely Life
Chapter 74 Beggar
Chapter 74 Beggar
"You bastard, run, run!" Xu Damao spat lightly, looking at the howling Banggeng lying on the ground, feeling quite happy. After all, he had been feeling a lot of frustration during this period. His reputation was ruined, and he often encountered some strange looks when walking in the yard. Although others did not dare to say anything to his face, they talked about him behind his back. How could Xu Damao not know?
Xu Damao was forced to admit his mistake, but he was naturally unhappy. In addition, although he was not his biological father, Jia Bang was now living with Qin Huairu. This bastard had never spoken to him, but Qin Huairu took him to her home for three meals a day, eating her own food and drinking her own drinks. Xu Damao had long been unhappy with this little bastard, and today, Qin Huairu had the opportunity to speak up, so Xu Damao kicked him hard.
"Xu Damao, who told you to kick the stick with your feet?"
Qin Huairu saw this scene, hurried over and complained.
On the other side, Jia Zhang ran over with a red face, "Oh my, my dear grandson, Xu Damao, if you do anything bad to my Banggeng, I will never forgive you!"
"Mom, you should talk less." Qin Huairu felt that what her mother-in-law said was inappropriate. She was now married to Xu Damao and was living with him. If she continued like this, her life would be difficult in the future.
"Well, Qin Huairu, how long have you been married? You..." After hearing what Qin Huairu said, Jia Zhang immediately put her hands on her hips and started yelling again.
It was at this time that Ran Qiuye also came out, and after seeing the stick stem on the ground, he also stepped forward.
"Banggeng, are you okay..." As he said this, he helped Banggeng up.
"Teacher Ran..." Being pulled up by Ran Qiuye, Bang Geng knew he couldn't escape, but his eyes were particularly evasive.
"Hey, who is this..." Xu Damao was still entangled with Jia Zhangshi, when he suddenly saw a strange woman coming over. His eyes lit up and his attention was immediately attracted by this beautiful woman.
Qin Huairu noticed Xu Damao's lecherous look, and her heart skipped a beat. She quickly stepped forward and said, "Oh, come on, Mom, what are you doing here? Are you making a fool of yourself for Teacher Ran?" While speaking, Qin Huairu greeted Ran Qiuye, "Teacher Ran, right? Are you here to look for Bang Geng? Let's go inside and talk."
"Oh, yes, Banggeng's mother, you are back just in time, let's talk about the child." Ran Qiuye nodded and followed Qin Huairu to the Jia family.
"Hey, Qin Huairu, aren't you coming back for dinner today?" Xu Damao suddenly spoke with his eyes flashing.
This voice made Ran Qiuye look over as well.
Seeing this, Qin Huairu hurriedly said, "Don't worry about it. Teacher Bang Geng is here. I'll take care of Bang Geng's business first."
Having said that, he hurriedly pulled Bang Geng and invited Teacher Ran to go back to the Jia family together.
Xu Damao just watched Ran Qiuye's back as she followed Qin Huairu into the house, and then he slowly withdrew his gaze.
He was just enjoying the sight, and this was not like what he and Lou Xiao'e did later.
It had been many years since he had used his power on Qin Jingru, and he and Lou Xiaoe had been married for many years, and they had never had a child. But now, he and Qin Huairu had just gotten married because they were caught cheating in bed. At this time, even if Xu Damao had this evil intention, he would not dare to carry it out. After all, the limelight had not yet passed, and besides, it had come to this point, and he also planned to have a relationship with Qin Huairu first. However, Xu Damao was cautious about Banggeng's class teacher. There was still a long way to go, and Banggeng would have to study in school in the future, and there were still many years left!
……
"What?! Banggeng, you haven't been to school for six days? You..."
After Qin Huairu brought Banggeng into the house and listened to Ran Qiuye's explanation of their purpose, her eyes widened and she pointed at Banggeng in disbelief.
They met Banggeng at the door, but they didn't know that Banggeng didn't go to school. They just thought they met each other after class. Who would have thought that he hadn't been to school for six days?
At this time, Jia Zhang didn't say anything else and her mind was on Bang Geng.
"Bang Geng, where on earth have you been? Why didn't you go to school? Talk to grandma."
At once, three pairs of eyes in the room fell on Bang Geng.
Banggeng, on the other hand, was silent at this moment. He quietly looked at Xiaodang who was hiding in the inner room and peeking at this side, but Xiaodang just shook his head at him.
"I do not know."
Finally, Banggeng came up with this sentence.
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu's blood pressure began to rise.
"You disobedient thing, I'm going to beat you to death! It's not easy for me to raise you, so this is how you repay your mother, right? Are you worthy of me?" Qin Huairu immediately went up and pulled Bang Geng over, slapping him on the butt.
"Ouch... Ouch..." Immediately, he howled in pain.
Jia Zhang was watching from the side, her heart ached, but when she thought about the seriousness of the matter, she did not confront Qin Huairu, which was rare. She just said distressedly: "My dear grandson, you can't not tell me about this. Tell grandma and your mother where you went when you didn't go to school, otherwise we will worry about you!"
After seeing Qin Huairu hitting Banggeng, Ran Qiuye quickly advised, "Banggeng's mother, please talk it over nicely. Banggeng was a very well behaved child before. We can't hit him."
Qin Huairu hit him several times in a row. Only after Ran Qiuye spoke up and the sound of Banggeng's cries was so pitiful, did Qin Huairu stop.
"Don't you know why I'm not in school? If it weren't for you, would I have been laughed at by the whole class? They blocked me and beat me up after school, calling me the offspring of a female gangster and saying that I would be a gangster in the future! I won't go to this school anymore! I won't go anymore!"
Perhaps it was because he was beaten, as a little kid, Banggeng couldn't hold back his tears and yelled out these words.
Qin Huairu listened, her expression frozen in place. She looked at Banggeng with a distressed and complicated look. For a moment, she was silent.
Ran Qiuye was standing nearby, and when he heard this, his expression changed repeatedly. Finally, his gaze fell on Qin Huairu.
"Bang Terrier Mom, maybe we should have a good talk?"
……
About ten minutes later.
In the living room of the Jia family, Ran Qiuye's eyelids twitched several times after listening to Qin Huairu's story. "Banggeng's mother, your family's situation is really too complicated. I think you should adjust your current living conditions, otherwise it will affect your child's normal life. Is this what a mother should do?"
As he spoke later, Ran Qiuye's tone became critical.
Ran Qiuye was born into a scholarly family. Although she didn't have any bad intentions, at this time, nothing had happened in her family yet. She had a clear attitude towards this kind of bad behavior that sounded immoral.
Of course Qin Huairu could understand the meaning of Ran Qiuye's words. Her expression froze and she turned her head to look at Bang Geng. She didn't know what she was thinking in her heart, and finally nodded at Ran Qiuye.
"Teacher Ran, I understand what you mean. I'm really sorry to trouble you. Let Banggeng stay at home for the time being. We will send him to school after we solve this problem. What do you think?"
Ran Qiuye was silent for a moment, then nodded. "Banggeng's mother, what you said makes sense. Judging from the current situation, Banggeng will not be able to attend classes properly in the short term. Your family's situation is special, but please solve it well so as not to delay your child. Of course, I will also educate some classmates in the class at school. I will come again in a while, and then we can continue to discuss the child's problem."
Although Ran Qiuye's tone was a little unfriendly, her starting point was selfless. She was indeed considering a solution for her own students.
Qin Huairu could understand, so she nodded politely to Ran Qiuye: "Okay, Teacher Ran, I'll see you off."
"No, it's not too late now. I can just go out and get a taxi. You guys stay."
At this time, Ran Qiuye had not bought his own bicycle yet. After waving to Qin Huairu and others, he walked out of the yard.
"Hey, Teacher Ran, have you finished your home visit? That was pretty quick."
At this time, He Yuzhu was carrying some vegetables to the sink to wash them. When he saw Ran Qiuye walking out, he couldn't help but greet her.
"Oh, it's you, comrade. Yes, the home visit is over. I'll talk to you about Bang Geng next time. By the way, comrade, I want to ask you about Qin Huairu in your hospital. She..."
As Ran Qiuye spoke, he suddenly lowered his voice and asked some questions about Qin Huairu.
In response to this, He Yuzhu naturally told the truth. After watching Ran Qiuye's face change, he hurriedly said goodbye and left the hospital. He Yuzhu had a general idea in his mind about Ran Qiuye's arrival today and what happened in the Jia family.
It seems that the matter between Qin Huairu and Xu Damao caused Banggeng to get into trouble ahead of time.
According to the original drama, Banggeng didn't have any serious problems when he was young. After all, there was a grudge like Shazhu who gave everything in the house to Banggeng to steal, and he was so proud of it. Why didn't he steal from others but from himself? As for the usual petty thefts, there were definitely some, but they were not serious and were all settled in the yard.
But now, He Yuzhu came through and directly cut off Banggeng's largest warehouse for stealing things. In addition, with Qin Huairu's incident, even if he had married Xu Damao, the rumors that had spread were enough for the kids in the school to laugh at Banggeng to death.
Thinking about this, He Yuzhu shook his head and hummed a little tune while washing vegetables by the sink. These were not his headaches, but those of Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang. As long as he was not involved, he had no time to take care of other trivial matters!
……
"Bang Geng, tell me the truth, where did you go when you weren't in school?"
That night, the Jia family's house was lit with dim yellow lights. Qin Huairu sat on a chair in the living room, with Bang Geng standing in front of her.
"I didn't go anywhere." The joke is still this.
"You are getting more and more outrageous. Not only are you skipping classes and not going to school, but you've also learned to lie, right? You haven't been anywhere, but you've been out in the morning and back at night? Where have you been in broad daylight? And what exactly did you bring home every day in the past few days?"
Qin Huairu finished her words, her eyes fixed on Bang Geng.
When Bang Geng heard the last sentence, his heart skipped a beat. He simply didn't look into Qin Huairu's eyes and stood there without saying a word. "Still not saying anything? Xiao Dang, come out here."
Qin Huairu suddenly looked towards the inner room.
Xiaodang, who had been hiding and watching, came out timidly when he heard this.
"mom……"
"You've been playing with your brother these days. Do you know what your brother brings home every day?"
"I... I don't know..." When Xiaodang heard this, she subconsciously glanced at Banggeng, but Banggeng shook his head at her repeatedly, so Xiaodang also shook her head.
How could Qin Huairu not know all this? She said unhappily, "If you don't tell me, Mom will be really angry!"
As his tone intensified, Xiao Dang panicked and subconsciously said anxiously, "Mom, my brother won't let me tell him where he got the money. I...I really don't know."
Upon hearing this, Banggeng's face suddenly turned dark.
Of course, Qin Huairu's expression was even uglier than his.
"Still have money? Bang Geng, where did you get the money? Tell me now! You are making me mad!"
When Qin Huairu heard that there was still money, her heart skipped a beat. How big is the stick? The money was obtained from outside, so it must be bad!
Seeing that the truth had been revealed, Bang Geng knew that he could no longer conceal it, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "I earned all my money myself!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? How old are you? How can you go to make money? Hurry up and take out your money. Mom wants to see how much you have!" Qin Huairu didn't care what Bang Geng said. She just wanted to see how serious the situation was.
Seeing that Bang Geng hadn't moved, Qin Huairu turned her gaze to Xiao Dang again.
Xiaodang was desperate now and went straight to the inner room. After a while, he came out with a cloth bag.
Qin Huairu quickly took it, opened it, spread out the bills inside and counted them.
Forty cents!
A full 40 cents!
Seeing this number, Qin Huairu's face changed!
Forty cents is not a small amount of money, let alone for a child, even for an adult!
Teacher Ran also said that Banggeng had not been to school for six days, minus the few days of leave they asked for for Banggeng in the beginning, that is to say, in just a few days, Banggeng only brought back 40 cents from outside!
"You are such a troublesome thing, where did you get the money? Tell me now!" Qin Huairu's tone was quite angry now.
If she was caught stealing outside, she would be sent to a juvenile detention center! Her future would be ruined! She had worked so hard and suffered so much injustice, and she accepted it. Her only belief was to raise these three children, but now something like this happened, how could she bear it!
"I've already said that I earned it myself. My master took me out to beg for food, and I owed it all to him!" Bang Geng knew that he couldn't hide the truth any longer, so he confessed everything immediately: "And didn't you say that your family has no money? Now I can make money too. You don't have to go to that Xu Damao anymore. We will have enough to eat in the future!"
"You..." Qin Huairu was stunned after hearing what Banggeng said.
It was mainly the latter part that touched Qin Huairu's heart. Banggeng used to be quite obedient, but everything became like this after the incident between her and Xu Damao. He didn't go to school because his classmates bullied him because of her bad reputation as a mother. Did he go out to beg because he felt that he had been wronged by following Xu Damao?
Thinking of this, Qin Huairu's heart suddenly became extremely complicated.
She pointed at Banggeng, but in the end, she couldn't say anything to blame him. All she could say was a heavy sigh. "Banggeng, Xiaodang, I'm sorry for you."
As she spoke, Qin Huairu had tears in her eyes and was speechless.
On the side, Jia Zhang was told by Qin Huairu in advance not to say a word about Bang Geng tonight, as it was a matter concerning her grandson, so Jia Zhang had no choice but to listen. Seeing the situation develop to this point, especially what Bang Geng said, Jia Zhang felt so distressed.
"Qin Huairu, you are still blaming my grandson. See, if it weren't for you, my grandson would not be in this state now. Oh my good grandson, you have been wronged..."
As she spoke, Jia Zhang pulled Bang Geng to sit on the bench.
Qin Huairu listened to this without saying anything. After a long silence, she said to Banggeng, "Banggeng, I did some things wrong before. I hope you can forgive me, but you must remember that everything I did was for your own good."
Bang Geng sat there listening and said nothing.
Just like that, when everyone had calmed down, Qin Huairu stood up and took Xiao Dang with her, "It's getting late today, go to bed first, and tomorrow you can take me to see your master, and I'll make things clear with him. You still have to go to school in the future and study hard. Mom can make money, so you don't have to worry about it."
……
The next morning, Qin Huairu brought Xu Damao to Jia's house. After opening the door, she called out "Bang Geng".
"Come on, take mom to find your master, and ask your uncle Xu to take us to a restaurant in the morning."
"Going out to eat? Mom, I want to go too." Xiaodang said repeatedly after hearing this.
"Let's walk together." Xu Damao didn't care much.
After Banggeng got up, he glanced at Qin Huairu, then at Xu Damao, but went to put on his clothes coldly without saying hello.
"Hey, this little rabbit... kid, what's your attitude?" Xu Damao was about to say something when he saw Qin Huairu's gaze, but when he saw Qin Huairu's gaze, he couldn't help but change his words.
"We just got married, and Banggeng was bullied by his classmates because of us. You are an adult, why do you care about children?"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Xu Damao shrugged. "You said his classmates bullied him? Do you want me to go there tomorrow? Just give those brats a good beating."
"Don't do that. You'll just cause more trouble if you go." Qin Huairu curled her lips.
Seeing this, Xu Damao didn't bring it up again.
When the cleaning was almost done, Bang Geng said awkwardly, "Mom, don't go. There's nothing good about my master. I'm just following him to get a meal."
"That won't do. You are my son. How can you have another master for no reason? Besides, we have to make it clear to him. We can't be his apprentice. How can we follow a beggar master? Even if you want to work in the future, you have to be like your uncle Xu. It would be great to be a projectionist."
"That's right, Bang Geng. When your uncle Xu went to the countryside, the girls in the village... ahem, the village party secretaries and leaders, all had to accompany your uncle Xu to eat and drink delicious food. It was very prestigious. Why would they beg for food?"
Qin Huairu listened and glared at him unhappily. After looking away, she took the stick and went out.
……
In the morning, in the kitchen of a canteen at a steel rolling mill.
He Yuzhu came to the kitchen as usual and asked Ma Hua to take charge of the cooking. He Yuzhu nodded slightly as he watched her cook so smoothly.
"Well, you have already mastered 70% of the essence of my big pot dishes. Practice more and I will find time to talk to Director Cai." Just as He Yuzhu finished speaking, Cai Youle came over from the other side of the kitchen curtain.
"Hey, look, here comes the devil." He Yuzhu took a look and stood up immediately. Ma Hua's eyes lit up as well, and he helped He Yuzhu put the chair aside, but he watched the scene from a distance without saying anything.
"Director Cai, is there any work?" He Yuzhu asked casually.
Cai Youle's expression was a little strange. He glanced at the kitchen, then stretched out his hand to block it and whispered to He Yuzhu: "There is a banquet, but you need to go out..."
"Going out?"
He had accepted such home-based dinner invitations in the past, so there was no need to be so secretive, right?
"I'm helping Director Lou cook." Cai Youle said again, which made He Yuzhu slightly stunned.
No wonder Director Cai spoke so carefully, the situation now was quite different from the time when he helped Director Lou prepare a reception dinner.
Although the iron fist has not yet officially been thrown upon the capitalists, there are already some signs across the country. The first to be hit are those capitalists with a long history of bad deeds. There have been several cases that have shocked the whole country.
For people like Director Lou, who usually had a good reputation and did not do evil, they were not that nervous. However, the whole society's atmosphere had changed somewhat towards capitalists. Therefore, when Cai Youle mentioned Director Lou's name, he did not want to let the people in the kitchen know. In fact, if it were not for Director Lou's relationship with the steel mill, he would not be able to find the steel mill's cooks to cook for him!
He Yuzhu thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I agree to this. When? Is he still living in the same place?"
Cai Youle nodded: "Yes, tonight, but there is no way the driver can pick you up. Do you still know the way?"
"I recognize it. I'll just ride my bike there when the time comes." He Yuzhu also remembered the way when he went back last time. As a wealthy area in the old city, He Yuzhu was naturally familiar with it.
"Oh, by the way, Director, there is something I want to discuss with you."
"what's up?"
"Ma Hua has been with me for a while now. I think his cooking skills are pretty good. Can I let him try the big pot dishes in the kitchen?"
