night.
Every house is lit up with stars.
Yu Li came back from outside and saw Li Weidong drunk, and she immediately became angry.
"Damn fat man, I told you to look at my man, and this is how you look at me? You will have to complain to your uncle later!"
Fatty Yu, who had been pretending to be a dead dog, finally couldn't bear it after hearing these words.
"Xiao Li, that's enough. I haven't left yet. Is it too much for you to scold me in front of me like this?"
However, Yu Li, who was usually gentle and virtuous in front of Li Weidong, turned out to be fierce now.
He put his hands on his hips and said, "I'm going to say it in front of you, what's wrong? Can't you say it?"
Fatty Yu was so beaten that his face turned red and his neck became thick, and he took a few deep breaths.
Li Kuiyong thought he was going to curse.
Unexpectedly, Fatty Yu suddenly changed into a flattering face.
"That's fine, that's fine, as long as you're happy."
His performance opened Li Kuiyong's eyes.
In fact, brother and sister Yu Fatty and Yu Li have been having trouble since childhood.
Even though Fatty has a fat body and a face full of flesh, he looks very intimidating.
The ones I'm most afraid of are my two cousins.
And before going out today, Yu Li also stared at Fatty Yu repeatedly.
Let him watch Li Weidong closely and don't let him drink too much.
Unexpectedly, Li Weidong and Zhong Yuemin hit it off immediately.
Accidentally, I still drank too much.
Although Fatty Yu and Li Kuiyong drank a lot, they at least remained sober.
Yu Li only said angry words.
What woman wouldn't be angry when her husband comes home drunk?
Li Weidong has always behaved well in front of Yu Li.
Of course she thought this was caused by Fatty Yu and Li Kuiyong.
It's just that she is not familiar with Li Kuiyong, so she can't talk to Li Kuiyong. She can only take advantage of the opportunity to talk to Fatty, hoping that he can realize this on his own.
She scolded fiercely, but Yu Li still prepared hot towels and sobering tea for Fatty Yu and Li Kuiyong.
Fatty Yu and Li Kuiyong left after drinking the sobering tea.
Li Weidong lay on the kang, vaguely heard Yu Li's voice talking about Fatty Yu, and fell asleep in the lake.
....
The next morning, Li Weidong woke up from the sudden sound of firecrackers outside.
The hangover didn't have much of an impact on him, and when he woke up he looked lively and energetic again.
It's just that Li Weidong was a little annoyed when he woke up early in the morning.
"Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law!"
After Li Weidong yelled a few times, Yu Li quickly poked her head in from outside.
"What's wrong?"
"What's going on outside? It's so noisy!"
"Oh, Widow Qin is bringing her son back. He's fine now. You can sleep a little longer. I'll call you when breakfast is ready."
"Forget it, I'd better get up!"
Li Weidong got off the kang as he spoke, put on his cotton-padded jacket and shoes, stretched out, and walked outside.
As he walked, he said, "What's going on with Widow Qin? Why is her son having such a big fight when he comes back from the hospital?"
When Li Weidong said this, he felt a little unhappy with Qin Huairu.
I told her before to keep a low profile.
If you think Banggeng is unlucky, you can just build a brazier and set off firecrackers!
Firecrackers are worth a lot of money. A 200-fire cracker costs 40 cents at the supply and marketing cooperative.
We had already mobilized donations before and cried about poverty all day long.
Are you doing this now because you are afraid that others will not know that you have money?
What do the residents who donated money think?
You have to teach her a lesson later.
Yu Li also felt the same way about Li Weidong's words and said: "Who says it's not the case? I don't know where she got the money. I heard that she paid a lot of money for her son's medical expenses. The money donated by the factory, and If Jia Zhang is taken away, where will she get the money?"
At this point, Yu Li paused, then leaned into Li Weidong's ear with a mysterious look on her face and said, "I heard from the aunts in the courtyard that Qin Huairu's face has been obviously much better recently than before, and she is much more energetic. She seems to have been nourished. Do you think she might be hooking up with a wild man outside?"
Li Weidong's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and said with a dry smile: "It's hard to say this, but after being widowed for so many years, it's normal even if you find a new man, right?"
Yu Li nodded and said, "That's true. She is only in her thirties, and she still has a long life. It would be really difficult to be alone and widowed until old age. But I don't know which man is so unlucky that he would She was targeted."
Li Weidong's expression became a little strange.
He looked at Yu Li and thought: Your man is the unlucky guy.
******
Li Weidong was not the only one who resented Qin Huairu for setting off firecrackers early in the morning.
The third uncle, Yan Bugui, is the one closest to the door.
While eating, I was startled by the sound of firecrackers and dropped the porcelain bowl on the ground.
The stick noodle porridge spilled all over the floor, and the edge of the porcelain bowl also fell into a gap.
But Yan Bugui felt very distressed.
"Who is setting off firecrackers out of season! Don't you have any sense of fairness?"
He didn't even put on his clothes, so he ran out angrily.
Just when he was about to get angry, he immediately went back into the house after seeing that the people outside were Qin Huairu and Bang Gang.
These two mother and son are not to be messed with.
If it gets stuck, I'm afraid it will take a lot of blood to recover, so just think of it as your own bad luck.
The rest of the residents are similar.
They wanted to come out and ask for help, but when they saw that the person outside was Qin Huairu, they gave up the idea.
And He Yuzhu, who was most supposed to show up to greet Banggan, never showed up, which made Qin Huairu somewhat regretful.
Another opportunity to make money was lost.
But there is no way, He Yuzhu can be said to be singing every night these days.
Every time Han Zhizhi didn't squeeze him dry, it would be hard to let him back.
At this time, I am catching up on my sleep in the house.
Not to mention the sound of firecrackers, even if there is thunder in his ears now, he will not wake up.
....
After returning home with Banggeng, Qin Huairu began to explain matters to him.
"I have already made an agreement with the school that you will go back to school tomorrow. In addition, I have paid the tuition fees. You can't skip school for me, do you understand?"
The stick figure who always loves to butt heads with Qin Huairu actually nodded his head this time.
Qin Huairu thought that Banggeng had changed his gender after cutting off the cow's body.
Little did he know that Bangge had been waiting for this day.
Wasn't the reason why he cut off the cow's head just to show off his power in front of his classmates?
Now Bangge thinks he has learned the "Sunflower Collection" and is thinking about going back to school to show off his power.
If Qin Huairu didn't let him go back to school, then he would be anxious!
After giving instructions to Banggeng, Qin Huairu called Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua again.
Let them stay at home and come to Qin Jingru if anything happens. They can no longer go out and do sneaky things.
Qin Huairu was also afraid. Recently, her children always caused trouble whenever they stole, and they had to pay to settle the matter.
The compensation was even more than if she took the initiative to buy it.
In addition, she also listened to some of Li Weidong's words and stopped looking for trouble for him in the courtyard.
The friendship with Yi Zhonghai has been completely consumed, and the stick is useless again. From now on, we should just keep our tail between our legs!
However, when there is an opportunity to take advantage of, she will never miss it.
This is nature and cannot be changed.
After arranging the children, Qin Huairu told Qin Jingru and went out to work.
Although the two sisters look very close but have different hearts, Qin Jingru still has to help her look after the house during this period.
...
As soon as he entered the gate of the steel rolling mill, Qin Huairu saw many people gathering in the square at the entrance, pointing at a certain place.
There was also crying coming from inside. The crying sounded inexplicably familiar.
Before Qin Huairu could think about it, the eldest sister from the same workshop waved to her.
"Huairu, come here quickly"!
Qin Huairu walked over without knowing why, and just as she was about to ask, she heard the eldest sister say: "Hurry up and find Director Yang!"
"ah?"
"Stop it, your mother-in-law is back!"
With the sound of kacha, a thunder flashed in Qin Huairu's mind.
Jia Zhang is back?
The first thought in Qin Huairu's mind was to tear the old woman alive.
The old man had taken away the money before, leaving her almost unable to pay her medical bills.
If Li Weidong hadn't extended a helping hand in time, Bangge might have been doomed.
He always calls me "good grandson, good grandson", but when the critical moment comes, his true colors are revealed.
It is for this reason that the aunt, who usually does not have a good relationship with Qin Huairu, is willing to give Qin Huairu a warning.
This is really jarring.
Qin Huairu usually sucks blood from others, just for the sake of this family, but what about you, Jia Zhang?
Is that what you do called personnel affairs?
Everyone has a balance in their hearts, and there is basically no doubt which side to turn to at this time.
"Don't be stunned, go quickly, otherwise it won't end well in a while."
Qin Huairu came back to her senses and her eyes changed.
The idea in her mind was to fight with the old woman now, but she could only think about it.
If she is going to die, what will happen to her son and daughter?
So this matter still needs to be resolved by the factory.
So, she turned around and ran to the factory director's office.
As soon as Qin Huairu left, Li Weidong entered the steel rolling mill on his bicycle.
Seeing the lively scene in front, I couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He grabbed an acquaintance from the security department and asked, "Xiao Jiang, what's going on?"
Xiao Jiang raised his eyebrows and said, "Qin Huairu's mother-in-law is back, and there's something good to watch this time!"
Li Weidong frowned when he heard this.
This is not a good thing for him.
Jia Zhang, an old devout woman, is going to return to the Siheyuan. It will be difficult for him to get close to Qin Huairu in the future.
Given this old woman's habit of eating people without spitting out their bones, if she were to find out, she would probably not make any noise.
Instead, he would use this excuse to lie down on Li Weidong and suck blood.
As long as Li Weidong doesn't want to lose his reputation, he has to enshrine her like Lafayette.
So there is nothing that can be done to make this old woman return to the courtyard.
Fortunately, she had committed a coquettish operation to commit suicide before, and now almost no one would speak for her.
Li Weidong squeezed into the crowd and moved closer, and soon heard Jia Zhang's voice.
Crying and complaining at the same time is still the same old routine.
However, Li Weidong was very curious about Jia Zhang's experience during this period. From what she said, she was abducted by a fellow villager.
But Li Weidong didn't believe it at all.
Who is Jia Zhang, kidnapping her? Unless that person is a fool.
She is an old, lazy, greedy, and garrulous old woman. No one would want her even if she gave her away.
Now Jia Zhang is probably lying.
And what happened during her disappearance is probably a bit difficult to talk about.
Just when Li Weidong was thinking about how to get Jia Zhang away, Qin Huairu came over with the leaders of the factory.
The two looked at each other vaguely. After several in-depth exchanges, the two had developed a certain tacit understanding and quickly reached an agreement.
Director Yang also felt a headache when he heard that Jia Zhang was back and ran to the steel rolling mill to cause trouble.
After all, it is difficult for an upright official to stop household chores.
No matter how you handle this matter, someone will talk about it afterwards.
You said Jia and Zhang were the same, they left as soon as they left, why did they come back?
When the onlookers saw the leader coming, they immediately gave way.
Mrs. Jia Zhang recognized Factory Director Yang and others. When she saw him coming, she cried even harder.
Moreover, his eyes also glanced at Qin Huairu who was standing aside.
When she found Qin Huairu looking at her with resentful eyes, Jia Zhang felt inexplicably weak.
He quickly lowered his head and no longer looked at Qin Huairu, but just kept shouting about injustice.
Director Yang has experienced a lot in his life, so he naturally realized early on that Jia Zhang's grievances at this time were just an act.
While he was sneering in his heart, his face remained calm.
"Okay, Mrs. Zhang, stop crying and howling. Just say what you have to say. There is no need to make such a fuss."
"Director Yang, I feel wronged! You said that I was a good person, but somehow I met a liar and was deceived out of the city. You didn't know that not only did they not give me food, they even abused me!"
As she spoke, Jia Zhang rolled up her sleeves, and there were some bruises on her arms.
At first, everyone thought that he might have wronged Jia Zhang.
But if you look carefully, this is wrong!
Why does this mark look like it was pinched out by hand?
Whose traffickers abuse people with their hands?
Come on, 80% of it was done by this old pious woman herself.
At this time, Jia Zhang didn't know that she had been exposed, so she kept pointing at her scars and talking.
It seemed as if he had really suffered a great injustice.
Director Yang and Qin Huairu naturally saw through this, but neither of them tried to expose Jia Zhang.
Because with Mrs. Jia Zhang’s face, even if you expose it, she won’t recognize it.
Qin Huairu became more and more impatient as she listened, and finally interrupted Jia Zhang's words directly.
"Don't talk about what you have or don't have. Let me ask you, where did the money that the factory donated to BangGeng go?"
Jia Zhang, who was crying, suddenly froze when she heard this. After a while, she hesitated and said: "Been, robbed by those human traffickers?"
"Oh?" Qin Huairu sneered.
She didn't intend to save any face for Jia Zhang.
At this time, it is natural to take revenge and complain.
"You said you were abducted by human traffickers, so let me ask you, what did they want to do by abducting you? And how did you come back?"
"Me, he, they want to sell me to a mountain village to be the wife of an old single man."
"This is interesting. What's the old man's name? How much did he sell you? I think we have to call the police comrades for this matter. This is a big deal! We can't tolerate rape."
When the surrounding audience heard this, they also echoed.
"Yes, you can't tolerate adultery."
"I can help run errands to the police station."
How dare Mrs. Jia Zhang really call the police? Otherwise, with just a little investigation, her affairs would be completely exposed.
Can she still be a human being then?
An old woman in her fifties or sixties was deceived out of money and sex by her old sweetheart. Can she still be a human being after all?
"It's better not to bother the public security comrades with this kind of thing. Anyway, I'm back anyway. Let's just pretend that the previous thing never happened."
"What about the money donated to Banggan by the factory?" Qin Huairu asked coldly.
