After He Yuyu finished reporting to Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang came back.
Seeing Mrs. Jia Zhang coming back, He Yuyu stood up quickly, excused that it was late and had to go to work in the afternoon, and then left in a hurry, even if Mrs. Jia Zhang politely asked her to stay for dinner.
Seeing this situation, she knew that this sister-in-law had never wanted to see Jia Zhang, so Qin Huairu quickly asked Jia Zhang to stay at home, and she personally sent He Yuyu away.
After personally sending He Yuyu out of the gate, Qin Huairu couldn't help but sigh again.
With He Yuzhu reporting the news, Qin Huairu actually felt better, but she was still a little angry at He Yuzhu.
In addition to being angry, Qin Huairu also felt fear and anxiety.
She was really afraid that He Yuzhu would leave with Lou Xiao'e and not want her anymore.
Although Qin Huairu still has three children, in fact, it seems that these three children are not expected so far.
In other words, although Qin Huairu can still live without He Yuzhu, the quality will definitely drop a lot.
Not to mention, after so many years, Qin Huairu had developed a dependence on He Yuzhu. If such a person suddenly disappeared, she would really feel at a loss.
So from the bottom of her heart, she couldn't let He Yuzhu leave, nor could she divorce him.
But she also understood that if it was a comparison of conditions, she would not be able to compare with Lou Xiao'e.
The only thing that can catch He Yuzhu is a word of love, or in other words, it is a bet that He Yuzhu has a conscience.
However, although she couldn't help but be afraid in her heart, from a rational point of view, Qin Huairu was not particularly afraid.
Because Qin Huairu felt that He Yuzhu couldn't live without him, let alone this courtyard.
No matter how rich Lou Xiao'e is, no matter how beautiful she is, or even gives birth to a son, she probably won't let He Yuzhu give in.
For no other reason than because He Yuzhu has a conscience, loves face, and is easy to handle!
Of course, that's what I thought, but after all, he was old, and Qin Huairu was afraid of what might happen.
In other words, Qin Huairu, who is no longer young, can no longer withstand the hardships and dare not make mistakes, so she is so worried now.
After sighing again, Qin Huairu sniffed and hurried back to make lunch.
While Qin Huairu was still making lunch, the second uncle and the second aunt came over early to wait for the meal.
Just when Qin Huairu was cooking and starting to put the food on the table little by little with Jia Zhang, the first uncle also came over with a smile.
After seeing that there were only the second uncle and the second aunt, as well as Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang, the first uncle smiled and said, "Hey, this meal today is quite clean."
"Uncle Yi is here." Mrs. Jia Zhang smiled and placed her chopsticks, "The meal is just right. Come sit down and eat."
Uncle Yi smiled and nodded: "By the way, where is Jingru? Why haven't you seen her?"
Jia Zhang said: "Jingru, she went back to her hometown and won't be back today."
The first uncle asked again: "Where are the three children?"
Jia Zhang replied: "Oh, didn't Banggeng have a date? The girl said that she wanted to treat the two sisters to dinner, so they went together."
"Oh, that's not bad." Mr. Yi sat down and said with a smile, "We haven't even walked in yet, but we already know the etiquette, and we know how to treat our future sister-in-law to dinner and friendship. If we live together in the future, we will definitely know how to respect each other. , OK, OK.”
"That's right." Jia Zhang smiled.
At this time, Qin Huairu took a bottle of wine and put it down, then said: "Okay, the dishes are all here, you can eat."
Uncle Yi picked up his chopsticks, smiled and asked Qin Huairu, "By the way, I heard from Lao Yan that the child's aunt is here?"
Seeing that Qin Huairu still had a straight face and was silent while eating, Jia Zhang quickly smiled and said to the first uncle: "Yes, she is here, but I went for a walk at that time, and she left as soon as I came back. .”
"That's right." Uncle Yi nodded, and then asked Qin Huairu, "She's here, did she say anything?"
Jia Zhang glanced at Qin Huairu and found that she was still eating in front of the door without saying a word.
After smiling awkwardly, Mrs. Jia Zhang said to Uncle Yi, "I asked her, but she didn't say anything."
Uncle Yi nodded and asked Qin Huairu with a smile again: "What, the situation is not good?"
Qin Huairu, who had just finished a mouthful of noodles, swallowed the food in his mouth, put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. It's just that Lou Xiao'e is planning to live in the capital for a long time this time, and is also planning to invest in Silly Zhu. Open a restaurant.”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Yi's smile immediately disappeared.
The second uncle and the second aunt looked at each other, and then said: "Hey, let me tell you, this is a good thing. Investing in a restaurant is a good thing, right? People should make the best use of their talents.
Today's society is different from the past.
Nowadays, everyone pays attention to innovation and opening up, and encourages people to go to sea. This person's thinking is different from the past.
Silly Zhu is a cook, so he should use his expertise, right?
So someone here invests in opening a restaurant, he..."
"Old Liu!" The first uncle suddenly spoke, interrupting the second uncle's conversation.
After putting down his chopsticks, the first uncle looked at the second uncle and said: "There are some things you should not say just by opening your mouth!
Having money is a good thing, and investing in restaurants is also a good thing, but you don’t know their relationship!
If Silly Zhu really accepted Lou Xiao'e's investment, wouldn't this relationship become a mess?
If we have to sort it out again in the future, the price we pay will be even greater.
Therefore, people cannot just pursue immediate interests, but must look to the long term! "
After being scolded by the first uncle, the second uncle put down his bowl and chopsticks unhappily: "No, why did you come to my place and just open your mouth? You didn't just talk nonsense? Do you think it's better to go over there? Huh?"
The second aunt hurriedly pulled the second uncle, but the second uncle waved his arm: "What are you pulling?"
"Say less." The second aunt quickly advised.
"Say less, say less?" The second uncle said unconvinced, "Then you have to allow me to explain, right? I also have my own opinions, and I also have the right to express my own opinions, right?"
"You have the right to express your own opinion." Uncle Yi suddenly said angrily, "But on the matter of Zhuzi, what you said is wrong!"
The second uncle asked angrily: "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me?"
Uncle Yi picked up his chopsticks and knocked on the bowl, and then said loudly: "There are so many things wrong! Just talking about Lou Xiao'e's investment in the restaurant, Zhu Zhu cannot accept it.
This is not a question of money, it is a question of complicating the relationship and paying a greater price in the future!
If you continue to cut off, there will be trouble! "
The second uncle was stunned, as if he did not expect that the first uncle would suddenly become angry.
Soon, the second uncle who came back to his senses also retorted: "No, if you want to say that, then is Lou Xiao'e's child the son of Sha Zhu?
No matter what happened before, this son is his. You can't break the relationship between flesh and blood, father and son, right?
Then Lou Xiao'e, as the child's biological mother, wants to invest in opening a restaurant for the child's biological father. What's the problem with this?
You have to forcefully stop Lou Xiaoe from investing in Sha Zhu to open a restaurant. What will Lou Xiaoe think then? "
Uncle Yi frowned and said, "No, Old Liu, why are you only thinking about Lou Xiao'e? Don't you think about Qin Huairu's feelings? You also have to think about the feelings of my sister-in-law and the three children, right?"
The second uncle was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "No, why didn't I consider it? Why didn't I consider their feelings?
I have always been on Qin Huairu's side from beginning to end. Didn't you hear that? "
"I heard it!" Uncle Yi said, "But let me tell you, regarding Zhu Zhu, you can't support Zhu Zhu! You can't let him do whatever he wants!"
The second uncle pointed at the first uncle angrily and said: "Hey, I... okay, you are the first uncle, and I am the second uncle, and then I, I must listen to you all the time, everything. Do you have the final say?"
The first uncle smiled and looked at Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang: "Look at him, he has done the same thing again."
Having said this, the first uncle turned to look at the angry second uncle who was blushing and thick-necked and said: "Old Liu, it's not a question of who listens to whom, but you have to find out if there are any signs of disintegration in this yard!
Once there are signs of disintegration, you have to nip him immediately, you have to stop him from the brink, do you understand? "
The second uncle waved his hand to the first uncle angrily: "Don't lecture me!"
Uncle Yi looked aggrieved: "How can I teach you a lesson? I am telling you the facts and reasoning. It is you who can't live with yourself and think too much."
The second uncle said: "Lao Yi, I realized that you and I are not on the same page. I have nothing to say to you!"
Having said this, the second uncle stood up directly, turned to look at the second aunt and said: "We don't want to eat this meal, let's go, let's go back!"
Seeing that the second uncle was about to leave, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang stood up quickly, and then Jia Zhang said: "No, why are you angry over a trivial matter."
The second uncle said: "No, this is no small matter."
After saying that, the second uncle turned to look at the first uncle who was still sitting in his original position and said: "No, you, you think you came here to eat first, and what we eat later is the meal you gave us, and then we can't say anything." Now, I have to listen to you in everything?"
Uncle Yi turned his head and said, "I didn't say that, you're just overthinking it!"
The second uncle said angrily: "Okay, I think too much, my little man, I don't want to eat, okay, let's go home, let's go home!"
After saying that, the second uncle grabbed the second aunt and forced her to go home.
Seeing this, Qin Huairu couldn't help but said: "No, second uncle! You blame me for this, blame me for stirring up trouble, blame me for not having a good face, blame me for all this, okay? I'll apologize to you, don't be angry. Alright?"
The second uncle waved his hand to Qin Huairu: "No, no, no, Huairu, don't always take the blame on yourself. This matter is not your fault, and it has nothing to do with you.
It's all Lao Yi, he's the one making trouble here, he's the one who doesn't like me. "
"No one thinks you are displeased." Uncle Yi folded his arms and turned his head and said, "I am so petty that I explode at the slightest moment, and I still blame others. You, you, you, after so many years, you still can't change your bad temper!"
As soon as he heard this, the second uncle's anger that had just subsided arose again.
I saw the second uncle pointing at the first uncle with a red face and saying: "You! OK, OK, you are capable, you are powerful, you have the final say, okay?"
"You're losing your temper now." Uncle Yi retorted, "Everyone is watching. I'm just talking about the matter for the sake of everyone and the good of this yard. Who is making trouble unreasonably?"
The second uncle, who had been robbed for nothing, opened his mouth, feeling that he could not speak to the first uncle, so he simply looked at Qin Huairu and said: "Okay, I understand, we are outsiders anyway, and you are a family.
That’s it, from now on, I won’t eat your food!
I won’t eat the food I came here for!
I can't stand this anger! "
Having said this, the second uncle turned to the second aunt and said, "Let's go home!"
The first uncle held his knees with both hands, raised his head and said to the second uncle with a half-smile, "Hey, yo, I still can't stand this anger, as if someone is begging you to come and eat."
The second uncle turned to look at the first uncle, snorted coldly, stopped talking, and left decisively with the second aunt.
"No, Second Uncle!" Mrs. Jia Zhang tried to persuade her, "Don't be angry. Don't leave just because of a trivial matter, Second Uncle!"
Unfortunately, the second uncle didn't listen at all, and he and the second aunt quickly disappeared into the middle courtyard and returned to their own home in the backyard.
After the second uncle left the middle courtyard and could no longer see his back, Mrs. Jia Zhang, who had a look of regret on her face, suddenly changed her face. She squinted with disdain and said, "Damn, what are you pretending to be? Just leave, don't eat." I won’t eat it! It’s easy to change a country’s status, but it’s hard to change one’s nature! This old guy will keep this virtue when he grows old!”
Qin Huairu tugged on Jia Zhang's arm and whispered: "Mom, stop talking, what are you doing?"
"Hmph!" Ms. Jia Zhang continued with a mocking look on her face, "I have long disliked this old guy. He just eats and drinks for free, and he always makes sarcastic remarks."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu and said: "In the past, he just talked nonsense. Seeing that he is older, I don't care about him.
But now that you have such a big problem, he has eaten so much of our food in vain. Instead of standing on your side to help, he is excusing Lou Xiao'e, speaking to your nemesis, and pushing the fool away. , isn’t this a waste of time?
Let me tell you, Uncle Yi is right.
You shouldn't get used to an old thing like this that you can't carry easily! "
"My sister-in-law is right!" The first uncle nodded and said, "We must unanimously disclose this situation to the outside world. We must not be confused."
Speaking of this, Uncle Yi looked around, and then sighed: "Now in this courtyard, there are fewer and fewer people, and it is becoming more and more deserted."
After sighing again, Uncle Yi looked at Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang and said, "We are all old and can no longer speak. The only person who can hold everyone together now is Zhuzi.
If the pillars are gone, I think this courtyard will really fall apart.
At that time, it will not only be a matter for Qin Huairu's family, but also for all of us.
If we really want to disperse, so will the others, but where will we, the helpless old people, go? Who will take care of us? Who will take care of us until we die? "
Speaking of this, Uncle Yi snorted coldly: "This old Liu seems to be quite shrewd at ordinary times, but he is always confused at critical moments!
He didn't even think about what was going on with his family now.
He has many children, but who is truly filial and who can truly support him?
Without Silly Zhu's help, could he have the good life he has now?
The pillar is the backbone of everyone! He is the backbone of everyone!
If he leaves, the whole yard will collapse! Then it will really fall apart!
Old Liu Bai has lived for such a long time, why can't he see through this? "
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang nodded in agreement: "Uncle Yi is so right. Silly Zhu is not the backbone of one person, but the backbone of everyone! Especially for an old immortal like me, We will have to count on him even more in the future.”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Jia Zhang sighed: "Anyway, I have seen it clearly a long time ago. This yard can do without anyone, but it can't be without Silly Pillar. If Silly Pillar is gone, other people will be fine. People like me , but there really is no one to support him.”
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Qin Huairu frowned and looked at Jia Zhang, "What do you mean there is no one to support you? Why don't you still have me?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu with a gentle face, and said in a gentle tone: "Huairu, I know you are a kind person and feel sorry for me, but you are a woman and you have reached this age. If you want to continue to take care of a large family, , you can’t stand it either.
This is not too early when you were still young. You are now not young and you are at an age where you need someone to take care of you.
And your salary is not much. If you really have to take care of such a large group of people, your burden is too heavy.
What's more, now you not only have to support me, but you are also involved in the issue of my child's marriage.
When the time comes, when the child wants to get married, he has to buy a house, a bride price, a dowry, etc., right?
What can you do with your salary alone?
Therefore, Silly Zhu must not leave. If he leaves, your whole family will have nothing to rely on!
Let me put it this way, no matter what method you use, you can’t let Silly Zhu leave, do you understand? "
Qin Huairu sighed: "I understand the truth, but it's going to rain and my mother wants to get married. If it comes to that, I can't stop her."
"Don't worry." Ms. Jia Zhang narrowed her eyes, "When it comes to that point, I will risk everything, and I will shamelessly stop Silly Zhu from leaving. Then if you cry again, the first uncle will follow you and beat the drum, hum, When the time comes, Silly Zhu will never be able to leave!"
"Is this possible?" Qin Huairu asked.
Jia Zhang smiled: "Others can't, but Shazhu can definitely do it! Anyway, Huairu, relax, as long as we are here, we will definitely not let Shazhu leave here! Unless I die first!"
