"If we don't get up soon, we'll be laughed at."
Qin Huairu moved her husband's mischievous hand away, got dressed, got out of bed, and quickly began to tidy up the house.
Watching the busy woman, He Daqing felt that this place finally had a bit of a homey feel to it.
After Qin Huairu finished cooking, He Daqing washed up and came to the central courtyard to call the two children back for dinner.
"Dad, you and Aunt Qin slept so soundly last night, you didn't hear a thing in the yard."
He Yuzhu suppressed a laugh, making a "giggle" sound.
"What happened last night?"
He Daqing was busy last night and didn't have time to deal with the mess in the courtyard.
"Last night, Liu Guangqi got into a fight with Jia Zhangshi."
Liu Guangqi's face was scratched and disfigured.
He's still hiding at home, too scared to come out.

"There's never a day when the courtyard is idle."
He Daqing never expected that even in her current state of destitution, Jia Zhangshi would still possess such destructive power.
Moreover, Liu Guangqi is too useless; he can't even defeat Jia Zhangshi, who has a broken leg. He deserves to suffer.
"Alright, your Aunt Qin has cooked dinner."
Call Yushui and hurry over for dinner.
Let the people in the compound do whatever they want; He Daqing just wants to live his own life well.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to save up more money and have a few big, fat kids with Qin Huairu?
Back in the east courtyard, Qin Huairu served the cooked corn porridge and side dishes, waiting for her husband to return so they could eat.
"What are you standing there for? Try your Aunt Qin's cooking."
The family was a little reserved when they got together for dinner today. It wasn't until He Daqing picked up his bowl and slurped it down that the others started eating.
Qin Huairu is very satisfied with her current life.
When I was at the Qin family's house, the breakfasts I ate every morning weren't that fancy.
Generally, corn porridge contains less flour and more water, and also includes a lot of wild vegetables.
Moreover, each person has a limited portion size, and can only eat until they are about 60-70% full.
There was no other way; although the village produced grain, most of it had to be exchanged for money to buy household items.
Building a house, buying furniture, and the bride price for my two older brothers—there were expenses everywhere.
Qin Yong and his wife were so frugal that they couldn't bear to spend too much money on food.
Marrying into He Daqing's family will change everything.
He Daqing has a high salary, diverse income streams, and daily check-in rewards from the system, making his family quite well-off.
Putting everything else aside, I'm sure I can eat my fill of three meals a day.
Moreover, as He Daqing accumulates wealth, his quality of life will improve, and he will have something to look forward to.
Chapter 25 Liu Hai's Scheme
After breakfast, He Yuzhu hurriedly returned to Hongbinlou.
I took the past two days off and missed a lot of things, so I need to go back and take care of them as soon as possible.
After cleaning up the dishes, Qin Huairu volunteered to take Yushui to school.
Qin Huairu did not work in Beijing; taking care of household chores was her responsibility.
She had to manage everything at home so that He Daqing could work with peace of mind.
With no need to pick up and drop off his daughter from school, He Daqing has much more free time.
However, he didn't intend to stay idle. He left home early and headed to the steel rolling mill.
Upon arriving at the courtyard gate, they saw Liu Haizhong standing by the door, clearly waiting for someone.
"Da Qing, you just got married yesterday, and you're up so early today. You have quite a high level of awareness."
Liu Haizhong came up to him with a grin.
"Old Liu, just say what's on your mind."
Liu Hai never visits Sanbao unless there's a reason, so his stopping He Daqing must mean something's up.
"The neighbors in our courtyard are all quite conscious, it's just that some of them have some moral issues."
We can't let one bad apple spoil the whole bunch, don't you think?
Liu Haizhong was still speaking in official jargon, trying to cover up his true intentions and feigning profundity.
He Daqing was getting a little annoyed by what he heard.
"Whether it's a bad apple or not, it's not up to the two of us to decide."
If we discover any problems, we should just report them to our superiors, and they will take care of the arrangements.
It's getting late, I should go.
He Daqing pushed his bicycle and was about to leave.
Liu Haizhong quickly stopped him again, this time not daring to show off.
"The Qing Dynasty, Jia Zhangshi has gone too far."
You have no idea how badly she hurt my Guangqi last night.
She wouldn't even apologize, let alone pay for medical expenses; instead, she tried to extort money from my son, Guangqi.
Guangqi helped out yesterday, you can't just leave without helping.
Liu Hai values his eldest son the most, and he saves all the good things for his eldest son.
Liu Guangqi was seriously injured, and he was determined to teach Jia Zhangshi a lesson.
After Jia Xudong left, Jia Zhangshi completely gave up.
She always acts like she'd rather die than give up money, so it would be really difficult for the Liu family to deal with her on their own.
Therefore, Liu Haizhong decided to join forces with the people in the courtyard to deal with Jia Zhangshi.
"Jia Zhangshi is a piece of trash. Anyone who gets close to her is disgusted, and even stepping on her will dirty your shoes."
"Old Liu, tell me how you plan to deal with this?"
Based on what Jia Zhangshi did yesterday, the two families have become enemies.
As long as it causes trouble for Jia Zhangshi, He Daqing must lend a hand.
Of course, I'm happy to help, but let others handle the actual fighting.
"In the Qing Dynasty, this courtyard house was originally the residential area for the steel rolling mill's family members."
Jia Xudong no longer works at the steel mill, so do you think this house still belongs to the Jia family?
"Why don't we talk to the factory and get the Jia family's house back?"
This time, Liu Haizhong's intentions went beyond simply teaching Jia Zhangshi a lesson.
He Daqing's purchase of the east wing gave Liu Haizhong a lot of inspiration.
Liu Guangqi isn't much younger than He Yuzhu, and they'll be getting married in a few years too.
If he had the means, Liu Haizhong would also like to build another room in the yard.
"The idea is good, but it doesn't comply with the regulations."
The house belonging to the Jia family was bought by Old Jia and is their private property, registered under Jia Xudong's name, and is not under the management of the factory.
"If we really want that house, Jia Xudong has to agree to sell it."
He Daqing shared his knowledge with Liu Haizhong.
Liu Haizhong only has a primary school education, can't read all the characters, and has only a superficial understanding of many regulations, so he can easily make things worse.
"But didn't Jia Xudong go out?"
He's already gone out, so he's not considered part of the compound anymore.
Liu Haizhong said somewhat unwillingly.
He had finally come up with a brilliant plan, so how could he give it up so easily?
Whether Jia Xudong lives in this courtyard or not is a separate matter from whether the house belongs to him.
Besides, how do you know Jia Xudong won't come back?
Liu Haizhong didn't understand that Jia Xudong was the true core of the Jia family.
If we can't handle Jia Xudong, we can't completely get rid of Jia Zhangshi.
"Then what do you think we should do?"
Upon hearing that Jia Xudong might return, Liu Haizhong felt somewhat discouraged.
"Just wait quietly."
Jia Zhangshi was disliked by everyone, even dogs; no one in the courtyard liked her.
As long as everyone ignores her.
"In time, she'll eventually give up and it won't be able to hold on any longer."
After He Daqing finished speaking, he left without waiting for Liu Haizhong to ask any more questions.
With Liu Haizhong's level of skill, he might be good at playing some tricks, but he's far from capable of doing anything big.
He Daqing was too lazy to waste any more time on this brat, who was not worth discussing anything with.
