Siheyuan: Rebirth 54 years ago, neighbor is stupid

Jiang Tao saw Qin Huairu holding a paper bag in her hand, which was obviously unopened and contained what looked like some brown sugar.

He thought that the Jia family was not well off and would not keep any unopened candies at home. Most likely, Qin Huairu had just bought them for her visit.

Thinking of Li Zhenmin's visit today, Jiang Tao felt that Qin Huairu had something to ask Li Zhenmin, but because Li Zhenmin was not easy to talk to, she came to find Li Tieguo.

But before Li Zhenmin left, he reminded Li Tieguo to pay attention to this aspect. After Li Zhenmin left, Jiang Tao also heard about some things that happened tonight from Li Tieguo. Although he was not sure about the specific situation, he also knew the seriousness of some things.

But it was not a good idea to just shout and chase them away at this time. We were all neighbors in the courtyard, so we had to be considerate. At worst, we could just refuse him later. So he made way and replied with a smile, "Come in and talk if you have anything to say."

After entering the room, Jiang Tao gently closed the door.

Li Tieguo was washing his feet in the room and was about to go to bed. Unexpectedly, Qin Huairu came at this time, so he quickly dried his feet.

Jiang Tao poured a glass of water for Qin Huairu and asked gently, "Huairu, what's the matter with you coming to see Lao Li so late at night? Just tell me directly."

With someone guiding her, Qin Huairu felt more relaxed. If she were to speak up on her own, she really didn't know what to say. After thinking for a while, she said, "Uncle, aunt, it's like this..."

Qin Huairu went straight to the point and told the truth about the situation at home. She originally wanted to play the victim in a roundabout way, but she held back in the end. Li Zhenmin would eventually get to know about this, and if she deliberately played the victim and resorted to trickery and got Li Zhenmin to know about it, it might backfire.

"I'm sorry, we hid it from you. Dongxu was robbed of his money at that time and I'm embarrassed to say it. I apologize to you here."

He didn't mention helping Dongxu find a job, but Li Tieguo naturally understood what was said and frowned, "So you want me to find a stable job for Dongxu?"

Qin Huairu opened her mouth, a little embarrassed. Li Tieguo suddenly became serious: "First, it is my responsibility as a master to help you, but some things cannot be helped just by saying so!"

"Secondly, you are embarrassing me by bringing things to my house. What if other people know that they have to send gifts when they ask me for help? How will other people look at me? Why do they send gifts to me? You are setting a bad example!"

"Third, even if you want to help, it shouldn't be you who does it!"

"I'm not deliberately making things difficult for you, nor am I blaming you for hiding the fact that your money was stolen from me, do you understand?"

Li Tieguo changed his usual gentle attitude and became very serious this time. He did not give Qin Huairu a chance to interrupt and made several points in a row.

Afraid that Qin Huairu didn't understand, Jiang Tao on the side echoed, "Hey, Huairu, what can I say about you? Whether you want to come here by yourself or Dongxu asked you to come here, it's wrong."

This is the prerequisite. If this condition is not met, how can we talk about the help later?

For some things, you have to have a good attitude.

If Qin Huairu came here on her own initiative, it would mean that this woman is very scheming and she relied on her status as a woman to ask for help, making it difficult for Li Tieguo to refuse. In addition, it would also mean that Jia Dongxu had no opinion of his own and would be laughed at if it got out.

He said he would help Jia Dongxu, but this opportunity was obtained by Qin Huairu. When the neighbors found out, he didn't know how they would discuss Jia Dongxu. Jia Dongxu had a bad reputation to begin with, and now someone would definitely say that he relied on his wife and that they were still a loser.

So if Qin Huairu took the initiative to come to the door, it proves that Qin Huairu wanted to control the mind of the head of Jia Dongxu's family. This kind of woman is not easy to deal with.

Perhaps this can prove that Qin Huairu is capable and a good wife, but in this era, there are neighbors with low quality and Jia Dongxu has a bad reputation. Qin Huairu's ability will only exacerbate this impact.

If Qin Huairu didn't come here on her own initiative, but Jia Dongxu asked her to come, this proves that Jia Dongxu is incapable of taking responsibility and such a person is not worth helping.

So no matter which point it was, Li Tieguo was really angry, and he was really thinking about Jia Dongxu. According to his principles, even if a man has no prospects, he should not let a woman take the lead. This is something he cannot tolerate.

After listening to Jiang Tao's explanation, Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat. She thought that the uncle and aunt were overthinking it and she hadn't considered it that much. But this just proved that she hadn't thought it through carefully enough and accidentally touched Li Tieguo's bottom line.

But the problem is, who knows that your bottom line, Li Tieguo, would be on this kind of thing!

Qin Huairu felt so wronged that her nose suddenly became sore. Seeing this, Jiang Tao quickly reminded her, "We will help you find out about this matter. You should quickly take the food back for the child."

As he spoke, he stuffed the candy on the table into Qin Huairu's hand.

Qin Huairu was a smart person. She knew that continuing to pester him would only lead to worse results, so she said goodbye and left.

As soon as Qin Huairu walked out of the Li family's door, Jia Dongxu saw her. When he saw that Qin Huairu was still holding something in her hand, Jia Dongxu realized that the matter might not have been accomplished, and a little anger rose in his heart.

Qin Huairu returned home and told Jia Dongxu everything that had happened at Li's house before Jia Dongxu could say anything.

Jia Dongxu, who was about to get angry when he heard this, suddenly felt depressed.

Qin Huairu really couldn't be blamed for this, but after what happened, would it be of any use if I went there again? Li Tieguo mentioned three points, but he didn't say that he would definitely be able to help, right?

Before he knew it, Jia Dongxu hesitated again.

Qin Huairu thought to herself that Jia Dongxu was a hopeless case. He was still hesitating at this point. Obviously, the most important thing now was to go over and apologize and beg for mercy as soon as possible.

Do we have to wait until tomorrow?

Isn't that telling Li Tieguo that you didn't know you were wrong at the first time, but weighed the pros and cons? Isn't that telling Li Tieguo that you, Jia Dongxu, are terrible?

Although she was very dissatisfied, Qin Huairu still patiently reminded him in a low voice: "Dongxu, go over and explain it clearly now. You know the character of the uncle. All he wants is an attitude..."

Jia Dongxu, who was in a state of confusion, came back to his senses after hearing this reminder. His face became even more distorted. He really didn't want to do something that would hurt his self-esteem.

well....

Seeing this, Qin Huairu sighed heavily, her face turned pale, and she turned around and lay on the kang, with her back to Jia Dongxu, without saying another word.

The room fell silent and the atmosphere became heavy.

After a while, there was a cry. Huaihua, who was sleeping, suddenly woke up crying. I don’t know if she had a nightmare or something.

Then Xiaodang and Banggeng were also woken up. They were half asleep and their stomachs were growling. They shouted to Qin Huairu, "Mom, I'm hungry. Is Huaihua hungry too?"

Xiao Dang shouted: "Mom, I'm hungry too..."

The house suddenly became lively, and Qin Huairu had to patiently persuade the child to go to bed quickly and have a good meal tomorrow morning.

But with Banggeng, a filial son, around, no amount of persuasion was of any use, he kept clamoring for food.

Jia Dongxu, who was sitting at the table, was upset by the noise. His cheek muscles bulged again and again, and he finally said in a deep voice: "Give the child some brown sugar water."

After he finished speaking, he paused, then stood up and walked out of the house, slowly walking towards the Li family.
