Chapter 1307

Qin Huairu was kneading dough in the kitchen and didn't respond to Banggeng's words at all.

Jia Zhangshi sniffed, swallowed her saliva, and shouted at Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, didn't you hear my eldest grandson wants to eat meat! Why aren't you moving! What are you pretending to be deaf for! Do you have any right to be a mother!"

If Banggeng was gluttonous, Jia Zhangshi was even more so.

Whenever there was something good in the house, Jia Zhangshi would take eight-tenths, Banggeng would eat one-tenth, and Qin Huairu, Xiaodang, and Huaihua would split one-tenth.

Otherwise, how could Jia Zhangshi be so white and plump, a "rich state" rarely seen in the whole of the four-nine city.

Qin Huairu lowered her head and kneaded the dough, frowning and saying: "I'll go to the vegetable market to buy meat after I steam the buns."

"Buy?"

Jia Zhangshi glared and shouted: "Doesn't buying meat cost money! Do you know how to live your life! This family is going to be ruined by you! Can't you go out and see whose house is stewing meat, and carry a bowl over to ask for a bowl! It's almost New Year's; you have to save more money to leave for making new clothes for the children."

Qin Huairu thought about it and it was true, so she sighed and said: "I know."

Washing her hands, she took an empty bowl from the cupboard and walked out of the room.

Following the scent to the backyard, she saw Shazhu stewing meat outside the Deaf Old Lady's house and her face lit up with joy.

So it was Shazhu stewing meat!

Then it would be easy to handle.

Qin Huairu wiggled her hips and walked cheerfully behind Shazhu, reaching out to pat Shazhu on the shoulder: "Zhuzi! What are you making? It's too fragrant. I smelled the aroma in the room. Who are you trying to make drool to death?"

Shazhu straightened his waist and smiled: "Qin Jie, your nose is really sharp. I ran into someone selling cheap pork ribs at the vegetable market, so I bought some back, thinking I'd bring it over to you once it was stewed. Alas, Banggeng is also a bitter child. His leg was broken and it hadn't been long since it healed, and now he's been bitten by a wild dog outside."

Qin Huairu made a bitter face: "Isn't that so? This child is used to being naughty, and I have my mother-in-law protecting him, so I can't scold him or hit him. I have no way to deal with him either."

Shazhu remembered Uncle Yi's words and said in a low voice: "Qin Jie, have you ever thought about sending Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown? Otherwise, with your mother-in-law around, can Banggeng ever learn to be good?"

Shazhu had long found that old hag Jia Zhangshi unpleasant.

If it weren't for this old hag blocking him, he would have accomplished good things with Qin Huairu, and the children might already be running on the ground.

Jia Zhangshi!

Aren't you ruining my good deeds?

Fine!

Watch me send you back to your hometown!

Let's see how you block Qin Jie and me from flying together.

Qin Huairu had long had the idea of sending Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown.

To tell the truth, she had long wanted to get rid of this Jia Zhangshi.

This Jia Zhangshi was gluttonous and lazy, savage and domineering, and even taught the children to steal things. The key was that she was in the way.

If Jia Zhangshi were sent back to her hometown, then she would be the head of the Jia family.

Without Jia Zhangshi, this evil mother-in-law, wouldn't she be able to do whatever she wanted?

But she still had to go to work, and Xiaodang and Huaihua were still small; there had to be someone to look after them.

Qin Huairu hesitated: "But if my mother-in-law goes back to her hometown, there will be no one to look after Xiaodang and Huaihua."

Shazhu said spiritedly: "That's easy to handle! Aunt Yi doesn't have anything to do at home; just ask Aunt Yi for a favor. Aunt Yi is kind-hearted and likes children, so she will definitely be willing to help look after Xiaodang and Huaihua. And, Uncle Yi told me that he had long wanted to recognize a god-relative. If you send Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown, then you can let the three children—Banggeng, Xiaodang, and Huaihua—recognize Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi as their god-grandfather and god-grandmother. Once they recognize god-relatives, would Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi treat the three children badly?"

Hearing these words from Shazhu, Qin Huairu's eyes lit up.

Having solved her worries, she couldn't wait to send Jia Zhangshi away immediately.

Not only would she be rid of an annoying burden, but she could also reduce the family's burden.

But if she sent Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown, would the neighbors in the courtyard say she was unfilial?

Qin Huairu said with a difficult expression: "She is my mother-in-law. If I send her back to her hometown, what will the neighbors think of me? They'll be poking my spine."

Shazhu patted his chest: "Qin Jie, you're overthinking it. Don't you know what your mother-in-law is like in the courtyard? Saying she is disliked by people and dogs is an understatement! She hasn't done less stealing chickens and touching dogs, or splashing and fighting. She's a living rat dropping. Sending Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown—the neighbors would be celebrating by beating gongs and drums. Qin Jie, as long as you agree to send her back to her hometown, leave the rest to me. If I can't handle it, there's still Uncle Yi."

Thinking that after Jia Zhangshi was sent away, he would be able to fly together with Qin Huairu, Shazhu was so excited he almost had a reaction. His gaze toward Qin Huairu became hot, and his heart felt itchy as if scratched by a cat.

Qin Huairu didn't speak, frowning as she weighed the pros and cons.

A moment later, she made up her mind and looked at Shazhu with expectation: "For the children, for the Jia family, I can only harden my heart and send my mother-in-law back to her hometown. It's just that as a daughter-in-law, it's not easy for me to handle this matter, so I can only entrust it to you."

Remembering Jia Zhangshi's actions, especially as she even incited Banggeng to catch a wild dog.

Qin Huairu felt a burst of anger in her heart.

If she continued to let Jia Zhangshi run wild, what kind of future could Banggeng have?

Even if it was for Banggeng, she had to send Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown!

That's it!

Shazhu was overjoyed: "What's this? You're still being polite with me. Huairu, after Jia Zhangshi goes back to her hometown, can we live together? I'll give you my salary and grain book, and I guarantee you and the children will eat until you're white and plump, and you'll never suffer any grievances again."

Qin Huairu said shyly: "Wait until my mother-in-law goes back to her hometown. You hurry and see if the ribs are ready. I can't stay out for too long, or my mother-in-law will start making a scene again."

After Qin Huairu carried the ribs home, Shazhu ran to find Yi Zhonghai impatiently.

After all, the idea of sending Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown was proposed by Yi Zhonghai.

How to operate it specifically, and whether it could succeed, still had to rely on Yi Zhonghai.

"Huairu really agreed!"

"That's great! It should have been done long ago!"

Hearing Shazhu say that Qin Huairu agreed to send Jia Zhangshi back to her hometown, Yi Zhonghai was even happier than Shazhu.

Without Jia Zhangshi, this old hag who was in the way, he could let go and do a big job!

"Isn't that so! This Jia Zhangshi is not only gluttonous and lazy, but she also abuses Qin Jie all day long. What's more hateful is that she corrupted Banggeng. Otherwise, how could Banggeng steal chickens and touch dogs at such a young age."

"Jia Zhangshi was originally a rural household registration; she should be farming and engaging in production in her hometown. Sending her back to her hometown can both contribute to the country, and Qin Jie can also reduce a significant burden."

In the early days of the founding of the country, household registration management was very strict, and Jia Zhangshi didn't participate in work, so her registration could never be changed to a city household registration. The ones in the Jia family who had city household registrations before were Old Jia and Jia Dongxu. After Jia Dongxu passed away, Qin Huairu took over the position, and the city household registration fell on Qin Huairu.

So until now, Jia Zhangshi's registration was still a rural household registration, and her place of registration was her hometown.

Yi Zhonghai rubbed his hands excitedly: "Since Huairu agrees, I'll go to the neighborhood office in a while. Actually, this Jia Zhangshi should have gone back to her hometown long ago. Not letting her go back before was out of pity for her, and also out of pity for the three children of the Jia family. But I didn't expect this Jia Zhangshi to not only not take care of the children wholeheartedly but also incite the children to steal things. It's simply too unseemly." ===== CHAPTER 1309 =====
