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

Ran Qiuye went to the backyard without even asking where Zhang Zhiqiang's house was.

At this time, Zhang Zhiqiang was reading a book attentively, writing something on paper from time to time.

It is said that serious men are the most attractive, but men who study seriously are even more attractive.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell on Zhang Zhiqiang, making him look like a banished immortal. Ran Qiuye's girlish heart was deeply moved.

"dong dong dong~"

"Zhang Zhiqiang~"

Ran Qiuye knocked on the door to remind Zhang Zhiqiang that she was there.

Zhang Zhiqiang quickly stood up and opened the door.

"Welcome, welcome, welcome to my humble home."

Zhang Zhiqiang welcomed Ran Qiuye in.

"What? Your house is pretty big."

"Huanghuali wood? If this is your humble home, then my home is in a remote and poor village."

Ran Qiuye comes from a scholarly family and has a lot of experience, so of course he knows about huanghuali wood.

She was still surprised to see so many rosewood furniture at once, and then she joked.

"Haha, you are joking. Ran Qiuye, just look around. I'll go get the food out first."

Zhang Zhiqiang calculated that the braised pork was almost ready and could be taken out of the pot, so he said to Ran Qiuye.

"it is good."

Ran Qiuye did not refuse and started walking around the room.

He walked to Zhang Zhiqiang's desk and looked at the draft paper beside him.

A piece of paper is full of calculation formulas, but they are written very neatly, and you can tell at a glance that Zhang Zhiqiang is a serious and careful person.

There was another piece of paper with a few lines of words written on it. Out of curiosity, Ran Qiuye picked up the paper.

On the paper it says:

There is hope at sunrise and thoughts at sunset.

Have something to look forward to, and be busy but not confused.

Ran Qiuye could tell what the poem meant at a glance. It was clearly a short poem expressing love.

Ran Qiuye felt like there was a stone blocking her heart. Could it be that Zhang Zhiqiang already had someone he liked?

Turn to the back and it says:

You are my love at first sight, you are the direction of my eyes.

You are my gentle home, you are the reason for my smile.

A few simple sentences directly expressed Zhang Zhiqiang's deep love for the girl. Ran Qiuye's mouth was slightly bitter, wondering which girl was so lucky.

"time to eat."

"Coming."

When Ran Qiuye heard Zhang Zhiqiang calling her to eat, she panicked and quickly put the paper on the table and walked over.

A rich aroma wafted into the air. Zhang Zhiqiang's cooking skills are quite good. The small pot of braised pork was full of color, aroma and flavor.

But Ran Qiuye felt bitter in her heart, as she finally met a boy who interested her.

The aroma of braised pork wafted in the yard, arousing the anger of everyone. Damn Zhang Zhiqiang, he eats good food every other day, but no one comes to visit.

This is an unwritten rule. These days, every household is having a hard time, so people don't go to other people's homes for meal times.

Otherwise, you might ask yourself whether they are asking you to eat or not. If they are asking you to eat, the ration at home will not be enough, but if they are not asking you to eat, it will be embarrassing.

But Zhang Zhiqiang doesn't have this worry. He is the only one in his family and he can't finish the food even if he eats it for a month.

"Why does Zhang Zhiqiang eat meat every day? This is not the way to spend money."

The second aunt started to complain.

"Humph, there is no old man at home to help you. If you don't know how to live, you will get into trouble sooner or later."

The second uncle opened his mouth and complained.

"That's right, you'll get into trouble sooner or later."

Liu Haizhong’s two sons, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, echoed this.

Liu Haizhong nodded with satisfaction. This is what it feels like to be a leader.

"Scramble two eggs for me. I want to go with the wine."

Liu Haizhong began to give instructions to the second aunt.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Second Aunt stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

"Mom, please fry one for me too. I'm craving for it just by smelling it."

"Yeah, I want to eat one too."

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu said.

"Clap~"

"Clap~"

As soon as they finished speaking, the two brothers were slapped in the face.

"What are you eating? Your father is a seventh-level blacksmith, and I do hard labor every day. That's why I eat eggs to replenish my body. If you two want to eat eggs, go buy them yourselves."

Liu Haizhong scolded his two children, believing that beatings make good children.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu didn't dare to speak. Liu Haizhong liked to beat children. If they opened their mouths at this time, they would definitely be beaten.

"Clap~"

"Clap~"

"Are you deaf? Why aren't you talking?"

Liu Haizhong was so angry at the two children's cowardly look that he could not help but slap them. Was this a silent protest against him? He slapped each of them in the face again.

"Dad, you're right. We don't eat eggs anymore."

"Yeah, no more eggs."

"Clap~"

"Clap~"

"Well, you're smart. This is a reward from me."

The bangs felt relieved, but he was slapped twice with the backhand.

The main point is that he beats his child when he is unhappy, and he also beats his child when he is happy.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu didn't dare to say a word and just kept drinking the porridge in the bowl.

Middle courtyard, Jia's house.

"Zhang Zhiqiang, whose parents have died, doesn't even know to send meat to our Jia family every day. Isn't he afraid of choking to death while eating?"

Jia Zhang took a few deep sniffs of the aroma of the braised pork and started cursing.

"Mom, we're inviting Teacher Ran to dinner today, so we have to eat something good."

Qin Huairu, who was sweeping the floor, was speechless. Didn’t she know how her family’s reputation became so bad?

As long as Jia Zhang is around, the image of the Jia family in the eyes of the neighbors will not change.

"Why invite that little bitch? Why not treat our Jia family to a meal?"

"Neither of them is a good person. Hurry up and bring the meat to us. Bang Geng will come back to eat it later."

Jia Zhang said in a nonsensical way.

"Mom, they won't give it to us. The first two times I went to ask for it, they couldn't even get in."

Qin Huairu said helplessly, but she was secretly thinking in her heart that she had to go, and she must not let Zhang Zhiqiang and Ran Qiuye have such a happy meal.

After all, she was the one who fell in love with Zhang Zhiqiang first. What was going on with Ran Qiuye? Was she just stepping in the wrong direction?

We should be reasonable in everything, right?

"Huh? Go quickly. If you didn't give it to me the first two times, I'll definitely give it to you this time. If you don't believe me, let's bet on a toaster."

"Uh, no, hurry up, if you go too late they will have eaten all the meat."

Jia Zhang quickly ordered Qin Huairu to ask for meat.

Qin Huairu didn't say anything and started looking for an empty bowl. She wanted to pretend to be reluctant so that Jia Zhang would feel at ease.

Otherwise, Jia Zhang would think that something had happened between her and Zhang Zhiqiang, and it would be quite scary to set up a mourning hall so late at night.

"Let's eat quickly. We didn't make an appointment earlier, so we prepared in a hurry."

Zhang Zhiqiang served Ran Qiuye a bowl of white rice, which looked very pleasing to the eye.

"Zhang Zhiqiang, do you have someone you like?"

Ran Qiuye looked at the food without any appetite and asked the question for some unknown reason.

"Yes, I have."

Zhang Zhiqiang's casual answer made Ran Qiuye feel like she was falling into an ice cellar. Never mind, since he has someone he likes, they should not meet again. Just wish him happiness.

"That's you."

Zhang Zhiqiang continued.

Ran Qiuye was shocked when she heard this. What did she just hear? Zhang Zhiqiang said that he liked her?

So, were the words written on the table just now written for yourself?

Ran Qiuye instantly felt filled with happiness, but due to her girlish modesty, she could not show it.
