Siheyuan: Forced to exchange rooms with Qin Huairu at the beginning

"Let's put it this way. Thank you so much, Auntie."

"My mother-in-law's verdict has come out. She was sentenced to three months. I may have to trouble you during these three months."

Qin Huairu looked apologetic, as if she didn't want to trouble an old lady.

"What's the big deal? I like two children too, just send them over."

The aunt smiled and said that Xiaodang and Huaihua were relatively sensible and didn't make any noise. The family had enough food for the two children, and having them come every day made her feel like a grandmother.

"Thank you, Auntie. Is Uncle at home?"

Qin Huairu asked, the main reason for coming this time was to find an old man.

"Lao Yi, Huairu is looking for you."

An old lady called into the house.

"coming."

Yi Zhonghai walked out of the door wearing a coat.

"Huai Ru, what's the matter?"

Yi Zhonghai asked doubtfully.

"Uncle, can we go outside and talk?"

Qin Huairu glanced at the old lady and spoke awkwardly.

"Okay, let's go."

Yi Zhonghai didn't suspect anything and walked into the yard.

Qin Huairu smiled awkwardly at the old lady and followed Yi Zhonghai to the central courtyard.

"There's no one here, Huairu, just tell me what you want to say."

Yi Zhonghai spoke up, but he felt that it was most likely to borrow money. Eighty percent of the time, this was the reason why Qin Huairu came to him.

"It's like this, uncle. My mother-in-law's verdict came out today. She was sentenced to three months."

Qin Huairu narrated the story with a miserable look on her face.

"Alas, Huairu, I know you are filial, but there is nothing I can do about this."

"Three months will pass quickly. I'll just wait for Mrs. Jia Zhang to come back and give her some good food to nourish her."

Yi Zhonghai thought Qin Huairu was worried about Jia Zhang, so he spoke comfortingly.

After all, Qin Huairu has always been known as a filial person in the hospital. It is understandable that she feels uncomfortable after hearing about what happened to her mother-in-law.

"Yes, uncle, if it's just this, it's actually okay."

"The main thing is that the judgment document said that our Jia family would have to be fined 20 yuan."

"Uncle, you know that my monthly salary is just that little, and I have to take care of the food, drink, and toilet of my family. I really don't have that much money."

"Can you lend me twenty dollars? I'll pay off the fine. This money is a loan. I'll definitely pay you back when I have money."

Qin Huairu said pleadingly.

Yi Zhonghai frowned. Although Qin Huairu's words sounded reasonable, Yi Zhonghai knew that the money could never be repaid.

Yi Zhonghai has been able to sit in the position of a big boss for so many years, so his intelligence must be incomparable to ordinary people, so he didn't really want to give the money.

The main reason is that the Jia family has caused him too much trouble recently, and he is planning to let Qin Huairu take care of him in his old age, but first Qin Huairu has to be willing to marry Sha Zhu.

"Huai Ru, your aunt is unemployed, and my family needs to support themselves with the little money I earn every month."

"Plus, our family has been supporting a deaf old lady, and Shazhu is also a worry. He may cause trouble from time to time and we may have to pay compensation."

"I am the eldest uncle in the courtyard. Many people come to my house to borrow money and I can't refuse them. I really don't have much spare money."

Yi Zhonghai complained, implying explicitly or implicitly that he didn't want to pay the money.

"I know a lot of uncles, but I really have no other choice. All the money in the family is with my mother-in-law, and I really don't have any money on me."

Qin Huairu started crying as she spoke, looking very aggrieved.

"How about this, let Zhuzi ask for a day off tomorrow, and I'll take you to find Jia Zhang and see where the family's money is kept."

Yi Zhonghai thought of a good idea. Didn’t Qin Huairu just say that the family’s money was with Jia Zhang? Wouldn’t it be better to ask Jia Zhang to take the money out?

Anyway, this money is used to save Jia Zhang herself, so she shouldn't be unwilling, right?

"Can it be done?"

Qin Huairu said uncertainly, Jia Zhangshi regards the pension money as more important than her own life, how can she let her know where the pension money is?

"It will be no problem. Huairu, you go back first. I'll go talk to Zhuzi."

Yi Zhonghai said affirmatively.

"Okay, the three children are still at home, so I'll go back first."

Qin Huairu went home twisting her head.

Yi Zhonghai came to Sha Zhu's house. The door of Sha Zhu's house is usually not locked, so Yi Zhonghai can just push the door open and go in.

"Hey, Zhuzi, are you drinking?"

As soon as Yi Zhonghai entered the door, he saw Sha Zhu drinking. He didn't even have any food, just drinking there.

"Master, you are here. Come and sit down. Let's have a drink together."

When Sha Zhu saw Yi Zhonghai, he felt like he had seen his own father, and quickly asked Yi Zhonghai to sit down.

"Zhu Zi, why don't you have any food to eat when you drink? Can you at least give me some peanuts?"

Yi Zhonghai asked doubtfully. He knew that Sha Zhu loved drinking. He usually liked to fry some peanuts, drink some wine, and then have a comfortable sleep.

"Oh, that brat Banggeng took all my peanuts away. My family hasn't bought any more, so I just drink it like this."

Sha Zhu said helplessly, wondering if he should just buy a lock for himself.

When he came back just now, Sha Zhu saw a few more footprints on the bed. It must be that Bang Geng came to the house to extort money again. Fortunately, there was nothing at home.

"You can't drink like this. Wait, I'll go home and get some peanuts."

After saying this, Yi Zhonghai walked out and prepared to go home to get some peanuts.

"Old Yi, what does Huairu want to talk to you about?"

After Yi Zhonghai returned home, an old lady came up to him and asked.

"What else can I do? Just borrow some money."

Yi Zhonghai said helplessly.

"Did you give it to her?"

An old lady said unhappily that it was okay to just take care of a child, but what was the point of coming to borrow money every few days?

"No, I need to borrow twenty dollars this time. I only make a few dollars a month. If I give her that, what will our family use?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and turned to look for peanuts.

"That is to say, he has borrowed hundreds of dollars from our family. He always said that he would pay it back when he had money, but he never paid it back once."

"Hey, what are you doing with peanuts?"

An old lady complained a few words, and when she saw Yi Zhonghai take out the bag of peanuts, she asked.

"I'm going to go find Zhuzi to have a drink. I went over and saw him drinking alone without any snacks or anything."

Yi Zhonghai responded.

"Zhu Zi, OK, bring this kimchi over and give you another dish."

When the aunt heard that it was Shazhu, she opened the cupboard and asked Yi Zhonghai to take the kimchi as well.

"That's fine."

Yi Zhonghai did not refuse, picked it up and prepared to leave.

"Old Yi, I think we still need to plan our retirement issues carefully. Zhang Zhiqiang is still reliable. He is a level 7 fitter."

An aunt discussed.

"You think I don't want to? I've already told them. What can I do if they don't want to?"

Yi Zhonghai said bitterly that he could only blame himself for being blind at the time and wanting to take over Zhang Zhiqiang's family. Who could have thought that Zhang Zhiqiang was so capable.

"Hey, Lao Yi, from what I've observed, the wife Zhang Zhiqiang married is a teacher."

"She seems to be called Ran Qiuye. She seems to be a person who knows how to be warm and cold. How about I talk to her?"

An aunt suggested that the teacher should be a sensible person, and if they had a good chat with him, he might be willing to provide for them in their old age.

Yi Zhonghai was also moved after hearing this. If Zhang Zhiqiang was willing, then his retirement would be secure.

At worst, I can give him the house and the work station in the steel mill. After all, these things cannot be brought with you when you are born and cannot be taken with you when you die. They are nothing compared to retirement care.

"You can give it a try. Buy him something to show your care and try to make the relationship better first."

Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment and then spoke.

"okay."

Yi Zhonghai was very happy when the aunt's suggestion was adopted.
