The beginning of Siheyuan starts with refusing to bring lunch boxes

Now, Qin Huairu almost laughed out loud when she heard what Jia Zhang said, "Mom, don't you know what's going on in our family? We're almost having to eat cornmeal steamed buns, so where can we get the money to buy meat? Salaries will be paid next week, so wait a little longer."

"No! If you take over our Jia family, you have to take responsibility!" He started to make a scene and summon the spirits.

"Dongxu, come and have a look! Your good wife is abusing your mother and not even giving her a bite of meat. Come up and have a look. If you don't like it, take her away..." The good show of the Jia family gave the neighbors who just got off work another good show to watch. Therefore, many people did not go home and watched the show directly in the yard.

The eldest uncle had just returned. As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, he smelled the aroma of meat. Then he heard the noises from the Jia family. He knew it was the meat that was making trouble.

I wanted to take care of it, but what could I do? Let Sha Zhu share some of the meat? What can Sha Zhu do? Sha Zhu is no longer a bootlicker! Give Qin Huairu money to buy it? What about retirement? So, I went home directly.

The third uncle Tian Da Kui, who came back one after the first uncle, saw Yi Zhonghai returning home, so he also went straight through the middle courtyard and returned home. He didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the Jia family. As for Yan Bugui, after seeing the other two uncles leave, he also knew that this matter was not easy to handle, so he left in a hurry!

Jia Zhang thought that she could get some sympathy by making a fuss, and maybe get some meat from Sha Zhu with the help of the old man. But after making a fuss for a long time, no one paid attention to her. She felt a little embarrassed and didn't know what to do next.

Qin Huairu might have the same problem as Jia Zhangshi, and seemed to have seen Jia Zhangshi's embarrassment, so she said, "Mom, our family conditions are like this, we just have to grit our teeth and wait for Banggeng to grow up."

Then, she reached out to help Jia Zhang, who also sat up. Then she sighed and said, "Hey, Huairu, it's all mom's fault! I feel bad for you because you've lost weight." Hearing Jia Zhang's words, Qin Huairu felt bad in her heart, but she said, "Mom, it's all my fault for being incompetent."

Seeing that there was nothing to watch, the people in the hospital went home.

Ding-ling-ling, He Yushui pushed her bicycle back to the courtyard. Seeing He Yushui, Qin Huairu's eyes lit up, and she immediately took the basin and dirty clothes and left Jia's house. Then she deliberately rubbed her eyes, and then deliberately showed her red eyes to He Yushui. Sure enough, when He Yushui saw Qin Huairu's red eyes from crying, she stopped and asked,

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

"Yushui, you're back. It's nothing. I just felt bitter and couldn't help it, so I..." Qin Huairu was happy when she saw He Yushui asking, but she said this, and then tears flowed down again.

"Sister-in-law, please tell me, did someone bully you?"

"Yushui, no one, it's just...ah, it's just, I'm incompetent, I can't even let my family have a meal of meat. Just now, my mother-in-law smelled the aroma of meat and wanted me to buy some meat. She also felt sorry for Banggeng. It doesn't matter whether adults eat it or not, but Banggeng and Xiaodang are still young and have no nutrition. When I think of them, I..."

When He Yushui heard this, it was meat again! Thinking of what her brother said, He Yushui said, "Hey, sister-in-law, nowadays, every household has a hard time. Just endure it, and it will be fine after you get through it." After that, she pushed her bicycle away.

Qin Huairu was stunned. What happened? Is she still the same Shashui? Hasn't her PUA always worked well? If it wasn't for Shazhu last time, she would have succeeded. This time, without Shazhu's sabotage, shouldn't she have promised to bring the meat back to our house? Or is the mother-in-law right? This is a money-loser!

Qin Huairu, who was gradually destroyed by the days, was also gradually darkening, and the lotus on her head was also blooming little by little...

He Jia, "Wow! Brother, it smells so good!"

In fact, He Yuzhu had known that Yu Shui was back. He also saw Qin Huairu talking to Yu Shui. He just wanted to see how Yu Shui would deal with it now. But as for the ending, He Yuzhu was very satisfied.

"The rain is back. Take two bowls and give some of the ginger duck and duck soup to the old lady, then come back for dinner."

"Okay, brother!"

A few minutes later, He Yushui came back and sat at the table. She took a bite of the steamed bun. He Yuzhu served her a bowl of soup, handed it to her and said, "Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry."

After taking a bite of ginger duck, He Yushui narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother, this is so delicious!"

"Is it delicious? If it's delicious, eat more." He Yuzhu's enthusiasm stunned He Yushui, who was immersed in the delicious food.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" He Yushui asked cautiously.

He Yuzhu rubbed his hands, then said embarrassedly,

"Rainwater, do you have any plans for tomorrow?"

"I don't have any plans. It's so hot now, it's better to stay at home."

"Yushui, how can you not have any plans? It's finally the weekend. You've been in classes for a week, shouldn't you relax?"

Even if He Yushui was slow, he still reacted and said jokingly, "Brother, what do you mean? Just say it directly."

"Hey, Yushui, make an appointment with your classmate Song Xiaomei to go to the library on Sunday to read some extracurricular books and enrich your knowledge."

He Yushui looked at He Yuzhu with a smirk on his face, "Oh? Brother, are you not interested in the bar?"

"You care about your sister-in-law, so stop talking nonsense. I'll treat you to a duck dinner at Bian Yi Fang on Sunday afternoon."

"A word is settled!"

Chapter 55: Lou's mother wants to arrange a blind date for Lou Xiao'e, Lou Xiao'e enters the factory

Lou Family

After Lou Xiao'e returned home, she went straight back to her room. Lou's mother Tan did not ask any more questions, thinking that she had gone out to play and was tired.

At this moment, Lou Bancheng was reading in the study. Since the public-private partnership, Lou Zhenhua had a premonition that the living space for people like him was getting smaller and smaller, so he wisely chose to go home. Although he had the title of director, he had never asked about the affairs of the steel mill in the past few years.

Moreover, even his own veterans almost gave up their positions. He gave them severance pay and let them go home to retire. As for himself, he has been very low-key over the years. Unlike some people who sometimes complain, his life is still as extravagant as before.

Since Lou Bancheng returned home to retire, most of the servants in the family have been dismissed, leaving only a nanny who has worked in the Lou family for more than 30 years and a driver and housekeeper.

Feeling the current situation, he sent his three sons away early in the morning, leaving only his young daughter Lou Xiao'e by his side. Lou Zhenhua had one wife and two concubines. His wife died of illness before the founding of the People's Republic of China. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the other concubine did not give birth to an heir, so he gave her some money and let her go.

Tan knocked on the door and brought a cup of tea. "Old Lou, do you still remember Li Yingzi who used to work in our house?"

Lou Zhenhua, who was reading a book, nodded and said, "What's wrong?"

"She has a son, who is 22 years old this year. He is now a projectionist in a steel mill. I have met him before. He is quite smart. What do you think of him and our Ezi?"

Hearing this, Lou Zhenhua frowned subconsciously, but then he seemed to think of something and said, "Do you think it's appropriate?"

"Well, their family has been poor farmers for three generations. Don't you feel that the situation is turbulent recently, so you want to find a family like this?"

"Have you discussed this matter with Ezi?"

"I'm here to talk to you first. If you think it's feasible, I'll go talk to her."

"It's fine as long as you think it's appropriate. Well, if it was back then... never mind. I won't tell you. Just do it yourself."

Tan knew what he meant. With the background of their Lou family, how could a servant's son be worthy of Lou Bancheng's daughter, even if she was born to a concubine?

In Lou Xiao'e's room, although Lou Xiao'e had stopped crying, she was still very sad. At this moment, there was a knock on the door and Tan's voice, "Ezi, can I come in?"

"Mom, what's the matter?" Lou Xiao'e stood up and went to open the door.

Noticing that her daughter was in a bad mood, Tan asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Then Tan expressed her thoughts. After hearing what her mother said, Lou Xiao'e stood up and said, "Mom! I won't go!"

"Ezi, although he is the son of a former servant of our family, I have known his mother Yingzi for more than 20 years. When she worked in our family, we had a good relationship. I have also met her son. He is tall and smart. He is a projectionist. How about you meet him first?"

Lou Xiao'e pushed Tan out of the door, and then she lay on the bed and started crying. Tan was stunned when she was pushed out of the door, because although her daughter was willful, she had never behaved like this before. Now she heard the crying inside again, and thought about her daughter's mood today, she found something wrong.

"Maybe my daughter fell in love and had a quarrel with the other party?"

She went to Lou Zhenhua to learn about their schedule for today. She guessed that she stayed alone, perhaps to meet someone.

So she decided to go to Lou Xiao'e to ask about the situation.

Half an hour later, "Ezi, it's Mom, can you open the door for us to chat?" After waiting for two minutes, Lou Xiao'e calmed down and opened the door for Tan with red eyes.

"Ezi, can you tell me about it?"

Lou Xiao'e still shook her head and said, "Mom, I have someone I like. I won't see the person you mentioned!"

After getting a definite answer, Tan said nothing more.

next day

He Yuzhu, who was busy at the steel mill, didn't know that Lou Zhenhua had come to the steel mill again at his daughter's request. But this time, Lou Zhenhua came and left quickly, and he left on his own. Lou Xiao'e stayed behind.

Lunch, Canteen 3, Chef He who was resting in the kitchen after lunch heard Fatty come over and say that a female comrade was looking for He Yuzhu and thought it was Qin Huairu. Fatty had never seen Qin Huairu.

When I arrived at the canteen kitchen door, I found that the person who came was Lou Xiao'e, who was wearing work clothes.

"Comrade Lou Xiao'e?" He Yuzhu said in surprise.

"Master He, I will call you Brother Zhuzi from now on, and you can call me Ezi, otherwise it will be too distant. I am now in the Finance Department of the steel rolling mill, and we will be co-workers from now on."

Looking at the 20-year-old Lou Xiao'e in front of him, He Yuzhu felt helpless. He understood Lou Xiao'e's feelings, but at this moment, it was impossible for the two of them to be together.

He couldn't leave everything here and go out with her. After all, she still had a sister and an apprentice. If he left, they would all be implicated when the wind started to blow.

If Lou Xiao'e stayed, the people on her side would also be liquidated. So, this can only be said that Lou Xiao'e met love at the wrong time. But there are still a few years before the wind blows, so there is no rush to do anything now.

"Then welcome to the steel mill!" He Yuzhu said with a bright smile, and then stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Lou Xiao'e. Lou Xiao'e blushed and said, "Then I'll go eat first. Goodbye, Brother Zhuzi."

In the kitchen, Liu Lan and the others heard that a beautiful female comrade was looking for He Yuzhu, so they asked He Yuzhu who this was with a gossipy look on their faces. He Yuzhu said that this was a friend he had met recently, but everyone looked unconvinced, leaving He Yuzhu speechless.

However, the news that a very beautiful female comrade had come to the Finance Department gradually spread throughout the steel mill.

Xu Damao, the first blood expert, also heard the news, so he ran to the Finance Department to meet Lou Xiao'e. He thought the girl was so cute, especially her chubby face, which made her look even cuter. He felt that the bookish air of the girl made him even more fascinated.

He went forward to greet her, but Xu Damao was used to talking nonsense, so he started with his old tricks. Lou Xiao'e, who came from a prominent family, didn't like this very much, so she asked unhappily, "Who are you?"

"Beauty, I'm our chief projectionist Xu Damao"

When Lou Xiao'e heard that this was the Xu Damao her mother wanted to introduce to her? Was this his level? So she said calmly, "My name is Lou Xiao'e!"

When Xu Damao heard that this was Lou Xiao'e, he was so excited the whole night that he thought if he married Lou Bancheng's daughter, wouldn't he have no worries about food and drink and live a rich and prosperous life for the rest of his life?

So, he hurried to talk further, but Lou Xiao'e didn't give him a chance and went straight to her own business. Xu Damao had no choice but to leave and look for another opportunity.

When Lou Xiao'e saw Xu Damao had left, she went to ask her colleagues in the Finance Department about Xu Damao, "Sister Wang, who is this Xu Damao?"

Before Sister Wang could speak, her young colleague Xiaoli spoke up, "Ezi, this Xu Damao is really good. He is our projectionist. He has good skills. Moreover, he was commended by the factory some time ago for helping to popularize fertility knowledge and helping our women comrades."

After hearing what Xiaoli said, Sister Wang continued, "Xiaoli is right, but Xu Damao is not a good person. He always flirts with the girls and wives in the factory. And I heard that..."

In this way, Xu Damao, who was regarded as a good young man by Tan and Xu Damao's mother, was exposed by a group of sisters in the Finance Department.

After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e was very cooperative. She was surprised at first, then angry, and finally seemed to be doing nothing of her business. She calmly went about her own business.

After work, Lou Xiao'e pushed her bicycle to the cafeteria, wanting to go home with He Yuzhu. However, she learned that He Yuzhu had left early, so she had to go home alone.

When Lou Xiao'e got home, she told Mrs. Tan everything she had heard about Xu Damao at the factory. Mrs. Tan looked at her daughter in disbelief. She even suspected that her daughter said that in order to not meet the blind date she had arranged.

"Mom, if you don't believe me, you can ask my dad to find someone to investigate, right?" After saying that, he returned to his room.

Lou Zhenhua also heard most of the content, so he went back and made a phone call

The next day at noon, the news about Xu Damao was placed on Lou Zhenhua's desk. Although the Lou family is not as strong as it used to be, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and its power should not be underestimated.

Looking at the above content, Lou Zhenhua was very angry. He was angry that Li Yingzi actually bullied his family like this! He had affairs with many widows in the countryside, had ambiguous relationships with young girls and wives in the steel mill, and used his position to blackmail the villagers...

He was so angry that he slammed the table three times. Tan, who heard the sound, came over to see what was going on. Seeing Tan, Lou Zhenhua angrily threw the information to her and said, "Look for yourself what a good son-in-law you have chosen!"

After seeing the content, Tan was so angry that she trembled! "How dare Li Yingzi do this! How dare she!"
