Chapter 145: Planning to deal with Qin Huairu
"Big brother, just be content. You made Dad so angry, and Dad still divided duck frames for you. If it were up to me, I wouldn't give you any, and let you starve," Yan Jiekuang said with a "hee hee" laugh.
"Shut your dog mouth. Why are you everywhere? If you talk nonsense again, be careful I beat you," Yan Jiecheng said viciously.
"I'm a dog mouth, what are you? Dad, big brother cursed you as a dog," Yan Jiekuang interjected.
"Enough, if you have food, can't you shut your mouths? If you talk nonsense again, none of you will eat!" Yan Bugui clearly knew Yan Jiekuang's small calculations and couldn't help but shout angrily.
At Yan Bugui's shout, the Yan family members honestly quieted down and ate the duck frames. The duck frames weren't much to begin with, and there were many Yan family members. In a short while, the Yan family members ate the duck frames clean, even licking the salt and pepper clean.
"Old woman, don't wash the plate. There is still salt and pepper on this plate. Soak the plate in water, and tomorrow use this water to boil soup. There will still be some salt and pepper flavor," Yan Bugui said.
The Yan family members were already used to Yan Bugui's calculations and dispersed one after another. Third Aunt, as Yan Bugui said, soaked the plate in water, preparing to use it tomorrow.
After He Yuzhu and He Yushui carried the roast duck to the middle courtyard, they found Qin Huairu hiding behind the curtains of the window, staring at them.
He Yuzhu deliberately revealed the roast duck and deliberately asked He Yushui loudly if it was delicious. If it was delicious, he would take He Yushui to eat more in two days.
He Yuzhu not only wanted to test Yan Bugui but also wanted to test Qin Huairu. Although this test of human nature was immoral, what morality was there to speak of with beasts?
As soon as He Yuzhu thought about how the original body was not only sucked dry by Qin Huairu's family for a lifetime but also dragged Lou Xiaoe's family into being sucked dry, while feeling angry, he also felt a chill down his spine.
What kind of viciousness could lead to doing such a thing?
Qin Huairu's family not only did this kind of thing but also smugly cursed you as a sand sculpture. This was no longer as simple as the loss of morality and the distortion of human nature. This was a naked beast, wanting your life, eating your meat, drinking your blood, eating people without spitting out the bones.
Compared to them, the likes of Xu Damao were nothing.
Xu Damao's family of four could be exiled to the Great Third Front by He Yuzhu, let alone Qin Huairu's family.
If Qin Huairu wasn't sensible, then don't blame him, He Yuzhu, for being ruthless.
Not only did Qin Huairu see He Yuzhu bring back the roast duck, but she also smelled it, and Bang Geng saw it too.
"I want to eat meat! I want to eat meat!" Bang Geng rolled forward on the spot, and then lay on the ground, making a scene.
What a familiar sound and routine. Qin Huairu was already used to it, and Qin Mu was the same.
Qin Mu had long seen that Bang Geng was a waste and didn't put her mind on Bang Geng at all. Instead of putting her mind on Bang Geng, it was better to put it on her own grandson.
It was just that Huai Hua was too young now and couldn't be left without someone to take care of her; otherwise, Qin Mu would have left the Siheyuan and returned to the countryside long ago. In Qin Huairu's eyes, the Siheyuan was good in every way, but in Qin Mu's eyes, home was still better.
Qin Huairu was a white-eyed wolf, and similarly, Qin Mu was also a white-eyed wolf. Qin Mu didn't mention taking away Jia Dongxu's pension and all the money from the Jia family from beginning to end, and Qin Mu considered this a matter of course.
Qin Mu had had enough of Bang Geng and couldn't help but say: "Huairu, it's the busy farming season now. Otherwise, I should go back."
"Mom, if you go back, who will watch the children? Why don't you wait another month or two, and wait for my mother-in-law to come back before you leave?" Qin Huairu said in a panic.
"I'd better go home. After I go back, I'll let your Fifth Uncle's Jingru come to watch the children for you. That little girl likes to come to the city very much. You let her come, and I'll talk to your Fifth Uncle," Qin Mu said with full confidence.
During the difficult times, Qin Fu and Qin Mu used the Jia family's money to buy a lot of grain on the black market, which could be said to be a life-saving grace for the entire Qin Family Village. The next Village Secretary would be Qin Fu; this was everyone's common intention, so Qin Mu naturally spoke with full confidence.
"Alright, but you must let Jingru come first. Tomorrow you make a phone call to the village," Qin Huairu said.
"Make a phone call, isn't it spending money? Tomorrow I'll go to the station to find someone to send a message to the village," Qin Mu said.
Qin Huairu had to nod even if she wasn't willing. Qin Jingru coming had Qin Jingru's benefits; at least Qin Jingru would listen to whatever she said.
"Sigh, Jingru is still too young now. If she were two or three years older, it would be great. Then I could introduce her to He Yuzhu, and I could also take advantage," Qin Huairu thought to herself.
"Mom, after you go back, can you discuss with my Fifth Uncle and the Village Secretary to change Jingru's age to be two years older? I'm planning to introduce Jingru to He Yuzhu," Qin Huairu said.
"Changing it to be two years older isn't enough. Jingru is only fifteen now. Even by nominal age, she's only sixteen. I heard them say that the city is different from the countryside. In the countryside, you can get married at eighteen, but in the city, you have to be twenty. Jingru's age has to be increased by four years," Qin Mu said.
"You say increasing it by one or two years is fine, but increasing it by four years, isn't that too much?" Qin Mu said.
"Mom, you must get this done for me. If you can't even get this done, you took my money for nothing," Qin Huairu said unquestioningly.
When Qin Mu heard Qin Huairu mention money, she scratched her head. No matter how calm and righteous Qin Mu was, it was on the premise that Qin Huairu didn't flip through old accounts.
During this period, Qin Mu didn't live in the Siheyuan for nothing. Thanks to the chaos in the Siheyuan, Qin Mu was also popularized with a lot of legal knowledge.
Qin Mu knew that if Qin Huairu turned her face and went to the police station to file a complaint, the entire Qin Family Village would be fine, but Qin Fu and Qin Mu would also be in trouble. Although they wouldn't go to jail, the money would have to be spat out, and then it would be a toss-up.
"Alright, after I go back, I'll get this done. After it's done, I'll have someone send you a message," Qin Mu said.
"Done, it must be done!" Qin Huairu said in a deep voice.
After Qin Huairu and Qin Mu reached an agreement, she had the heart to pay attention to Bang Geng. Poor Bang Geng had howled for nothing for a long time.
"Stop howling. You wait, I'll go ask Silly... He Yuzhu. Bang Geng and Xiao Dang, you remember, from now on, when you see He Yuzhu, you are not allowed to call him Silly Zhu anymore. You must call him Uncle He or Uncle He Yuzhu," Qin Huairu said coldly.
"I won't! Silly Zhu is a big fool. My grandma and my dad said so, so I'll call him a big fool," Bang Geng said loudly.
"You call him that, and he'll drive you to the Northwest to eat sand. Xu Damao's whole family was exiled to the Northwest to eat sand because they called him Silly Zhu. If you want to eat sand every day, just call him that," Qin Huairu said coldly.
Bang Geng was dumbfounded: "I don't want to eat sand. I won't call him Silly Zhu anymore. At most, I won't pay attention to him."
Bang Geng was a stubborn person, and his thinking and habits were already fixed. It would be extremely difficult to make him change his way of speaking.
Qin Huairu sighed, knowing Bang Geng's character, and couldn't help but say: "Remember what you said."
After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she left the room and went straight to He Yuzhu's house.
He Yuzhu didn't close the door and had been waiting.
He Yuzhu thought Qin Huairu was smart enough, but he didn't expect Qin Huairu to still come to ask for meat.
"He Yuzhu, are you home?" Qin Huairu didn't enter the door directly like before, but shouted at the door.
"I'm here. Jia Qinshi, what do you want from me?" He Yuzhu said calmly.
He Yuzhu's calling her Jia Qinshi almost made Qin Huairu break her defense. Qin Huairu almost fainted: "I've become Jia Qinshi?"
He Yuzhu wasn't wrong to call her that, but Qin Huairu thought she was still young and refused to accept this title. Once she accepted this title, it meant she was labeled and automatically classified as an aunt.
When outsiders heard Jia Qinshi, their first reaction would be to imagine Qin Huairu as an aunt.
"He Yuzhu, you used to call me sister. Why do you call me that now? Calling me that makes me old. When people hear it, they will definitely imagine me like my mother-in-law," Qin Huairu said with a grievance.
He Yuzhu remained unmoved and continued to stab Qin Huairu in the heart. "You also said that was in the past. In the past, when Dongxu brother was still alive, whether I called you Sister Qin or Sister-in-law was appropriate;"
"Now, Dongxu brother is dead, I have to avoid suspicion. Otherwise, how can I marry a wife?" He Yuzhu said sarcastically, mocking Qin Huairu for trying to sabotage his matchmaking last time.
"He Yuzhu wants a wife? That's simple. In two days, I'll call my Fifth Uncle's Jingru over. Jingru is the flower of our village, and she will definitely catch your eye. It's settled. I'll have my mother send a message to the village tomorrow," Qin Huairu said, greedily looking at the roast duck on the table, and turned to walk back.
As Qin Huairu walked, she hoped He Yuzhu would call her to stop. Qin Huairu thought: "I've helped He Yuzhu with such a big favor, He Yuzhu should at least show something."
As a result, Qin Huairu returned to her house, and He Yuzhu didn't make a sound.
It wasn't that He Yuzhu didn't make a sound, but he closed the door directly.
"This Qin Jingru isn't an adult yet, right? The current Qin Jingru is at most fifteen, not even older than He Yushui. This will be three years of starting, right?" He Yuzhu thought helplessly.
In the original drama, when the plot started, He Yushui was about to graduate, didn't go home every day, and married a small policeman as soon as she graduated, almost never returning to the Siheyuan.
At that time, Qin Huairu introduced Qin Jingru to He Yuzhu, and was intercepted by Xu Damao. He Yuzhu thought his deduction should be correct.
Since Qin Huairu wasn't sensible and still rushed to pit him, He Yuzhu began to think about how to take revenge on Qin Huairu.
He Yuzhu also thought about taking advantage of Jia Zhangshi not being back to send Qin Huairu's family to the Great Third Front, but then he thought this was too cheap for Qin Huairu.
Killing is not as good as punishing the heart!
How can Qin Huairu be made to suffer?
That is, he lives well, eats big fish and meat every day, while Qin Huairu eats coarse tea and light rice;
Without comparison, there is no harm. The better he lives, the harder Qin Huairu lives, which is the greatest harm to Qin Huairu, making Qin Huairu suffer.
After a few years, when Bang Geng grows up, he will spend some money to let him go to the countryside in the poor mountains and bad waters, and then spend some money to let Bang Geng start a family there, not letting him return to the city. This should make Qin Huairu suffer for a lifetime.
Letting Qin Huairu's family be separated at the ends of the earth, not seeing each other once a year, is the greatest punishment for Qin Huairu.
At that time, he will think of a way to let Qin Huairu remarry, preferably having another child. Even if Bang Geng can come back, he will make Qin Huairu restless.
"Right! That's how it should be done. Bang Geng is the destiny child of the Siheyuan, and Qin Huairu's luck is also quite good. What if Qin Huairu is sent to the Great Third Front and she clings to a leader and thrives?"
"It's better to keep her under my nose and toss her every day. Qin Huairu, you pitted Silly Zhu for a lifetime, and I, He Yuzhu, must pit you for a lifetime," He Yuzhu thought to himself.
He Yuzhu decided how to deal with Qin Huairu and suddenly felt his thoughts were clear and his whole body was relaxed.
To prevent the roast duck from spoiling overnight, He Yuzhu put the roast duck, duck frames, etc., into his consciousness space. Early the next morning, He Yuzhu got up early and took out the roast duck and duck frames.
He Yuzhu also reacted last night, what if the roast duck spoiled overnight? After He Yushui got up and finished washing, she couldn't wait to eat the roast duck.
He Yuzhu didn't stop her and let He Yushui eat. Anyway, this roast duck was enough for He Yushui to eat for two meals.
"Stay at home and don't run around. If you go out, remember to lock the door. Be careful that your roast duck is stolen by Bang Geng," He Yuzhu exhorted.
"Don't worry! I'll go to Hu Ya Mei's house to eat at noon. Phew phew, what Hu Ya Mei, her name is Zhang Shuqin. I've been corrupted by you," He Yushui said, sticking out her tongue.
"Whatever you want, anyway, you have to lock the door when you go out," He Yuzhu said.
He Yushui nodded.
He Yuzhu didn't eat roast duck, but cooked a bowl of dough soup and poached four eggs. He Yuzhu ate two, and He Yushui ate two.
In terms of eating and drinking, He Yuzhu would never treat He Yushui badly. He Yuzhu was also not afraid of people being jealous. Anyway, these things were eaten into the stomach, unlike clothes that were worn outside and could be used as evidence.
If someone really reported it, he could completely push it to Li Huaide, saying it was the coupons given by Li Huaide. They couldn't really investigate, could they? Even if they really investigated, it would be fine. Things eaten into the stomach couldn't be matched at all.
After He Yuzhu was full, he decided to go to Li Huaide to ask for some coupons. Don't ask for nothing.
The superior is not afraid of you having requests, but is afraid of you having no requests. He Yuzhu just showed his gluttony.
After He Yuzhu went to the Rolling Mill, he found Liu Lan and asked: "Do you want to eat meat?"
"Get lost!" Liu Lan said after casting a glance at He Yuzhu.
Although Liu Lan said this, she still obediently followed He Yuzhu to the office, once again employing the "bite technique" to play the game of crawling under the office desk.
The reason Liu Lan was so obedient was because He Yuzhu gave too much; yesterday, Liu Lan only bought a jin of meat, then went home and made a batch of cabbage and pork dumplings, which left her whole family with a lingering fragrance in their mouths, saying it was even better than the New Year.
After He Yuzhu finished, he gave Liu Lan some more grain coupons, letting her go buy grain herself.
A cigarette after the deed, happy as an immortal; after He Yuzhu finished his cigarette, he went to Li Huaide's office and directly asked for meat coupons.
Li Huaide casually took a stack of coupons from his drawer and pulled out a few to give to He Yuzhu; He Yuzhu didn't care about the coupons, what he cared about was this behavior—everything could be blamed on Li Huaide.
"There's a task tonight; come cook a special meal," Li Huaide said.
"No problem!" He Yuzhu said, patting his chest.
"That's good. When it's afternoon, I'll have Niu Fen bring the ingredients over to you," Li Huaide said.
Li Huaide was very satisfied that He Yuzhu didn't fight for power. According to custom, such things had to be handled by He Yuzhu, but now, He Yuzhu was too lazy to move and directly let Niu Fen do it, with He Yuzhu simply being responsible for cooking the special meal.
Li Huaide knew He Yuzhu was gluttonous, otherwise why would he ask for meat coupons every few days? As for He Yuzhu eating a little while cooking the special meal, Li Huaide just turned a blind eye, as long as it wasn't too excessive.
"Alright, I'll be waiting at any time," He Yuzhu said, then left.
"This Shazhu is truly gluttonous. Sigh, if only the people below were as obedient and trouble-free as Shazhu," Li Huaide thought to himself.
Ma Hua, Pangzi, and Liu Lan were already able to independently cook the big-pot meals, so He Yuzhu acted like a master, doing nothing. If he felt like it, he would give a few pointers; if he didn't, he would read books about mechanics in the office. He didn't seek to build Iron Man's equipment, but even building Falcon's equipment would do, saving him from flying around on an air tricycle every night.
Marvel's individual combat equipment was more suitable for him.
By the afternoon, Canteen Director Niu Fen sent over the ingredients: a chicken, a jin of pork belly, and a fish, for a total of six people that evening.
He Yuzhu made three meat dishes and three vegetable dishes. While cooking the special meal, He Yuzhu directly had Ma Hua, Pangzi, and Liu Lan watch from the side. This time, He Yuzhu even used his homemade MSG to enhance the flavor.
At this time, there were already MSG factories, but due to production limitations, only some high-end restaurants and high-level departments had it; the Rolling Mill wasn't yet in line to be allocated MSG.
After finishing, He Yuzhu let Ma Hua, Pangzi, and Liu Lan use the remaining ingredients to cook their own special meal, calling it "training them."
Li Huaide and the others were eating the special meal, and He Yuzhu and the others were also eating a special meal; of course, the quality of the special meal wasn't as good as Li Huaide's, as He Yuzhu and the others only ate the scraps.
After finishing, everyone went home. When He Yuzhu reached the entrance of the hutong, he keenly sensed something was wrong.
