The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Qin Huairu also knew her limits; she needed to unite with more people, as she couldn't be of much use with only one person at the moment.

So Qin Huairu said, "Yes, I don't have any food in my stomach, so I can't squat for too long."

Let's go.

Qin Huairu then cleaned herself up with newspaper and left the restroom with the other person.

When Yang Dalin and the others reached the front yard, he glanced at them and saw that the person talking to Qin Huairu was a woman from the back yard.

They didn't have much contact normally, but she was quite familiar with her husband, Yang Dalin, and they often talked.

We just didn't have much contact.

Yang Dalin was thinking about how to deal with Qin Huairu.

It's no longer effective to cover Qin Huairu's face with clothes or a sack and slap her face like we did the previous two times.

We need to find another way.

Yang Dalin prepared to think carefully about how to tidy things up so as not to arouse suspicion.

Lying in bed that night, Yang Dalin checked the items in his spatial storage.

We have guns, crossbows, and slingshots; if we really wanted to, we could easily eliminate Qin Huairu physically.

But dealing with her doesn't have to be this ruthless.

Yang Dalin laughed when he saw the bullets he had made from yellow clay.

When I'm working outside tomorrow, I'll pick up some small stones or something.

Keep it for future use.

The bullets definitely cannot be taken out.

I promise to give Qin Huairu another surprise.

……

……

The next day, Yang Dalin got up early as usual and woke up the Qi sisters.

After a night's rest, the two sisters' legs felt much better, but they still hurt a bit when they moved. The two sisters were determined though.

He gritted his teeth, got out of bed, and staggered to the central courtyard to find Sha Zhu's wife to practice martial arts.

Sha Zhu cleaned up his west room so that his wife, Coach Wu, could use it.

He lived in a house consisting of three main rooms and two side rooms.

He usually uses the main room in the middle and the east room.

He doesn't need the west room by himself, so the door is usually closed.

Now that the west room has been cleaned up, the three girls are practicing martial arts inside. It's not so cold there, and it doesn't disturb the people in the courtyard from resting.

No one else can see it, so the few of them practicing martial arts won't feel embarrassed by being surrounded by onlookers.

This morning, Yang Dalin also signed up for some traditional Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

Yang Dalin thought about giving it to Sister-in-law Miya so that she could make it for the three girls.

This sign-in feature is actually quite thoughtful.

Yang Dalin picked up some small stones on his way to work during the day.

Received it in my space.

After getting off work in the afternoon, Yang Dalin gave the Chinese medicine to Mi Ya and asked her to distribute and use it.

Miya said that having these medicines would be very useful.

After dinner at the Qi family home that evening, Yang Dalin noticed that Qi Yanhua and Qi Xiaoning both looked very tired.

Yang Dalin suggested that they rest early, and then accompanied Aunt Qi to take them to the toilet before going to bed early.

Then Yang Dalin opened the latch on the window of his house.

Without even taking off his clothes, he waited quietly.

When he heard Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu go out to the toilet together.

Yang Dalin quietly opened the window and jumped out without a sound.

As Yang Dalin left the courtyard, he carefully observed the other people's houses.

Finding that no one was paying attention to him, he tiptoed and followed behind, waiting for Qin Huairu to enter the women's restroom.

At this moment, Yang Dalin listened carefully and realized that there was no one else in the women's restroom except for Qin Huairu.

Yang Dalin didn't need to worry about how many people were in the men's restroom.

Yang Dalin scattered some smooth pebbles at the entrance of the toilet.

Then, based on Qin Huairu's height, some sharp pebbles were scattered in the places where she would fall over.

Then he quickly returned to the yard, jumped straight back to his room, and locked the window.

Then take off your clothes and get into bed.

On the way back, Yang Dalin had already listened carefully to make sure no one was paying attention to him.

The ground beneath our feet was frozen solid, leaving no trace.

Sure enough, a moment later, Yang Dalin heard Qin Huairu scream: "Ah..."

With a thud, Qin Huairu called out again: "Dongxu..."

Then immediately followed by another sound: "Ah..."

Jia Dongxu had just stepped out of the men's restroom when he heard his wife calling him. He quickly ran over, shouting, "Huai Ru, what's wrong?"

"Dongxu, I fell down."

"Huai...Ru, I'm here, I'm here..."

Jia Dongxu ran to the entrance of the women's restroom and saw Qin Huairu lying on the ground. Luckily, she was outside the restroom; if she had been inside, it would have been a real problem.

Several people in the men's restroom, some of whom were carrying flashlights, also heard the cries for help and ran over.

A flashlight shone on Qin Huairu's face, and Jia Dongxu immediately saw that his wife's face was covered in blood. Jia Dongxu was startled and almost threw Qin Huairu out of his arms: "Huairu, blood, blood..."

Qin Huairu touched her face, and in the light of the flashlight, she could see that her hands were covered in blood: "Ah...it hurts so much..."

Only then did Qin Huairu realize that she had bled a lot on her face.

I only felt pain and didn't realize that my face had been pierced by sharp little stones.

She then screamed.

Qin Huairu's scream finally woke up Grandpa Qi, who was working at the gatehouse.

Grandpa Qi just went to sleep, but he wasn't asleep yet.

He heard screams, quickly put on his pants and a cotton-padded coat, and woke up several people in the back room.

As soon as there was any movement in the back room, the people in the front yard heard it too.

In particular, a man who had just gone to the toilet ran back shouting, "Something terrible has happened! Someone come quick! Qin Huairu has fallen outside the toilet and her face is covered in blood!"

Yang Dalin then turned on the indoor light and, along with everyone else who had heard the commotion, hurriedly got dressed.

He even deliberately buttoned two of the buttons on his cotton-padded jacket wrong.

Yang Dalin went out, and Aunt Qi came out as well, asking, "Dalin, what's wrong?"

Yang Dalin said, "I don't know. I heard shouting outside; it sounds like something happened."

Qi Yulan said, "Then let's take the flashlights and go take a look together."

Yang Dalin said, "Okay," and then he saw movement behind the curtain in Aunt Qi's room. Yang Dalin called out, "Sister Yan, Xiaoning, don't go out. Close the door and stay home. Aunt and I will go check on her."

Qi Yanhua's voice came from inside the house: "Okay, Dalinzi, you and Mom be careful."

Yang Dalin put on his overcoat and a hat, and followed Aunt Qi and several other people from the courtyard outside.

As soon as I stepped out of the courtyard gate, I saw a large crowd gathered around the public toilet.

The sound of Qin Huairu screaming could still be heard from inside.

Yi Zhonghai ran over to Yang Dalin without even putting his shoes on properly.

Yang Dalin was in no hurry. He and Qi Yulan walked forward calmly.

Yi Zhonghai ran to the back of the crowd and shouted twice. A space was made for him in the crowd, and he squeezed to the front. Yang Dalin and Qi Yulan were standing at the back of the crowd.

Yang Dalin stood on tiptoe to look inside.

Yi Zhonghai's voice came from inside: "Dongxu, what's wrong?"

Jia Dongxu was almost in tears as he said, "Master, Huai Ru fell down after she came out of the toilet, and her face was covered in blood."

Yi Zhonghai shone a flashlight on her and quickly said, "Why are you crying? You guys hurry up and borrow a car to help Dongxu take Huairu to the hospital."

Dongxu went home to get some money and two changes of clothes, then rushed to the hospital.

Yi Zhonghai stood up again and looked at the ground carefully. There were many pebbles, which were obviously deliberately scattered by someone.

Remembering Qin Huairu's two previous attacks, Yi Zhonghai called out to Yan Jiecheng, who was watching the commotion.
