Siheyuan: The final winner

Chapter 41 The Jia Family Borrows Grain Everywhere

Jiang Ping'an finished eating a few big buns.

While listening to Peking Opera and soaking her feet, she saw Qin Huairu push the door and come in.

He frowned, looked behind Qin Huairu, found no one, and said in a low voice:

"Why are you here now? Aren't you afraid of other people's gossip? Aren't you afraid of your mother-in-law's spam?"

Qin Huairu smiled, stepped forward and said, "My mother-in-law called me here."

"Come here to borrow food?" Jiang Ping'an understood instantly, glanced at her, and said in surprise, "Are your feet okay?"

"I'm here to borrow food." Qin Huairu sat down on a small bench, then shook his head and said:

"My feet aren't good, they still hurt a little bit. I rub them with medicinal wine every day, and I'll be fine when I walk slowly."

Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "If it's just you, I'll have a lot of food to make you fat."

"But the Jia family wants to borrow food from me, and there's not a grain of it."

Qin Huairu sighed and said sadly, "Now my family has run out of food."

"There are only three wowotou left in the evening. I have one each for Bangjie, my mother-in-law, and Dongxu. I'm still hungry."

"Tomorrow will be even harder. There is no food at all."

"There are a few Chinese cabbage in the cellar, but I don't care if I'm hungry, it's safe, you can help my sister!"

Jiang Ping'an shook his head silently, his eyes deep.

Qin Huairu gritted her teeth and said with tears, "Do you really want to be so cruel?"

"I've let you play, what else do you want? Can't you feel sorry for me?"

Jiang Ping'an said coldly: "I said, if you want to eat, eat as much as you want!"

"But if you walk around, you won't have a grain of food."

"If you think I'm cruel, then go out, and we won't communicate in the future!"

Qin Huairu was a little helpless when she saw Jiang Ping'an's hard-hearted heart, and when she heard that he was about to drive her away, she was suddenly flustered.

She hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Jiang Ping'an's arm, and whispered:

"If you don't borrow it, don't borrow it, so you can't speak well? Can't I listen to you?"

Jiang Ping'an's face softened and smiled, "As long as you don't ask me to borrow food, everything is easy to talk about."

"Even if you want meat, I will try my best to get it for you."

"Bragging, you can get me some meat to try?" Qin Huairu covered her mouth and chuckled.

"It just happened to make me replenish my body. I've been hungry and full these days, and I can't hold it anymore."

Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "There is definitely no meat for now, but do you want to eat dumplings?"

"You still have dumplings here?" Qin Huairu said in surprise.

Jiang Ping'an nodded and said, "There are still dumplings to eat, but there is no fire in my house today!"

Qin Huairu's expression froze, and she said resentfully, "Then I'm here to find you tonight, so I don't have to eat?"

"Nonsense, there is no fire, of course there is no need to eat." Jiang Ping'an rolled his eyes.

Seeing that Qin Huairu was about to cry, Jiang Ping'an softened, and took out a piece of kraft paper from his pocket.

"I still have a few pieces of maltose here. You can make up for it first. I'll make a fire later. Is this okay?"

Qin Huairu laughed through tears, took the paper package, opened it, and put it in his mouth.

"It's so sweet, then I'll come to you in the evening and cook more dumplings."

"I'm going to have a full meal, and tomorrow's meal hasn't arrived yet!"

Jiang Ping'an said: "Tomorrow is a holiday, and I will be at home in the morning."

"If you are really hungry, you can find an excuse to come over and leave after you have eaten. I believe you can do it."

Qin Huairu said with a smile, "I don't need to bother too much to find excuses."

"I'm afraid you don't know, my mother-in-law and Dongxu both think you have a good reputation and won't mess with the relationship between men and women..."

Jiang Ping'an was quite surprised when he heard the words, he laughed dumbly and said:

"And such a thing? How did their heads grow?"

"I don't understand their thoughts either." Qin Huairu shook her head and replied, then got up:

"I'm going back first, remember to make a fire and cook a big bowl of dumplings for me, I haven't eaten yet!"

Jiang Ping'an nodded and said, "Go, come over at night and make sure to eat hot dumplings."

Qin Huairu smiled slightly.

He looked back at the door, then leaned forward, kissed Jiang Ping'an, and then turned to leave.

Jiang Ping'an smiled and licked his mouth, with a hint of sweetness on it.

Intermediate Court.

Qin Huairu, who originally had a smile on her face, walked to the door, her face suddenly changed, and she was suddenly gloomy.

Pushing the door in, Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu were talking.

The two raised their heads and frowned when they saw Qin Huairu returning empty-handed.

"Didn't borrow it?" Jia Zhang's face was pulled down at once, and she said angrily:

"This Jiang Ping'an is indeed a treacherous villain!"

"Thanks to me, I gave him two new pairs of shoes, and I couldn't bear to borrow any food."

Qin Huairu sighed and said worriedly:

"He still owes a lot of debt himself. How could he lend us food? I shouldn't have gone just now."

"Hey..." Jia Dongxu let out a long sigh, got off the kang, and said:

"Then I'll go to the uncle's house again, or else I won't have to eat tomorrow."

Jia Zhangshi nodded and said, "If you can borrow it, borrow more."

"It really doesn't work, let's see if we can let him help hold a general meeting of the hospital and let everyone donate some food to our family."

Qin Huairu answered, "I'm afraid the uncle's family doesn't have much food."

"Every household doesn't have a lot of food these days, so it's not very likely that people in the compound will donate food."

"Always have to try, can a living person be suffocated to death by urine?" Jia Zhang said angrily.

Jia Dongxu nodded and went out to find Yi Zhonghai.

Easy Zhonghai Home.

The aunt is talking to Yi Zhonghai about the Jia family.

"Jia Zhang's and Jia Dongxu are not things." The aunt complained.

"In this big night, they didn't show up. Instead, they picked up Huairu and went to Ping'an to borrow food. It's not right."

Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "Ping An himself doesn't have enough food."

"He also takes [-] catties of stick noodles from us every month. Where can I borrow surplus grain?"

"Half a child, eat a poor old man, and eat a lot of food." The aunt agreed.

After a pause, she said again: "Listen to what Huairu means, there is a way to get food safely."

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "He had a way to get food, and he told me too."

"But he never does anything speculative, and I agree with him."

The aunt smiled and said, "Ping An, this kid knows how to do things properly, and we can't get involved in speculative activities."

"Yeah, for those three melons and two dates, it's not worth taking a huge risk." Yi Zhonghai nodded.

"You said that Jia's family is out of food, if Huairu can't borrow food from Ping'an, will Dongxu come to our house to borrow it again?" The aunt asked curiously.

"This possibility is very high." Yi Zhonghai pondered.

"Come when he comes, anyway, our rice tank has bottomed out."

"If he comes over later, you can take him to see it, and you will know if it is true or false."

The aunt sighed and said, "Hey, when is this age old?"

"There is always a time when you can have enough to eat." Yi Zhonghai said casually.

Just as he was talking, Jia Dongxu's voice came from the door.

"Master, Mom, have you eaten tonight?" Jia Dongxu raised his head and glanced at it before walking in.

Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "I just ate it, what's wrong with Dongxu coming so late?"

Chapter 42 He Yuzhu's Aggrieved

Jia Dongxu said dejectedly that the family was out of food and wanted to borrow some food.

"You came a few days ago, didn't we tell you? Our family has no food left." Auntie frowned.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at him, and pondered: "Dongxu, you know, my monthly ration is only more than 30 catties."

"Your aunt doesn't work, and the monthly ration is only more than 20 catties."

"Ping An can't get enough to eat, and you have to take [-] catties from me every month."

"There are less than [-] catties left. The two of my family have to save some food to eat. There is no surplus food to borrow at all."

Jia Dongxu said unexpectedly: "Jiang Ping'an still gets food from your house every month? Why haven't you heard of it before?"

"Hehe, what's there to say?" Yi Zhonghai smiled.

"He has been taking food from our house since the year before last, and both Lao Liu and Lao Yan know about it."

"It's not a glorious thing, there's nothing to brag about."

Jia Dongxu said depressedly: "He also has a quota of more than 30 catties, right? Isn't it enough for one person?"

The aunt interjected: "He often has to go to the countryside, travel through mountains and rivers, naturally hard work, how can he do if he doesn't have enough to eat?"

"Yeah, don't underestimate going to the countryside for purchasing. It's not as easy as going to the countryside to join a household." Yi Zhonghai nodded.

The aunt said: "Dongxu, you can deal with at least one meal a day in the factory, and you can only bring your own food in the countryside."

Jia Dongxu was speechless, neither would he leave, nor would he not leave.

Let's go, there is no food at home, and if we can't borrow food, the whole family will be hungry.

Don't go, listen to the tone of the two, they will not borrow food, which makes him embarrassed.

Yi Zhonghai looked at his hesitant look, and gave Auntie a look secretly.

The aunt understood, got up and said, "If you don't believe Dongxu, come and take a look at my rice jar."

Jia Dongxu followed in a daze, and the rice tank had bottomed out.

Yi Zhonghai and his wife had to save on food, and there really was no surplus to borrow.

If you can't borrow food, there is no need to stay any longer.

Jia Dongxu said hello and went home.

"Still haven't borrowed it?" Jia Zhang was disappointed when he saw Jia Dongxu coming back empty-handed.

Jia Dongxu nodded and said angrily, "Gou Yue's Jiang Ping'an is really inferior to a beast."

"He has more than 30 catties of food that are not enough to eat, and he goes to the uncle's house every month to take away [-] catties!"

"If he hadn't taken so much food, I would have borrowed it for sure!"

"What? Is there such a thing? Who did you hear?" Jia Zhangshi said in surprise.

Jia Dongxu climbed onto the kang and sighed: "Hey, the uncle told me personally, there is nothing wrong."

Jia Zhang immediately yelled, "Jiang Ping'an, this villain, this short-lived ghost!"
