From Siheyuan to Hong Kong Island Tycoon

In the courtyard, Qin Huairu was busy in the kitchen. Since there was no longer the burden of Jia Zhang and Bang Gang, the life of Qin Huairu's family could be said to be getting better and better.

Not only can he save more than ten yuan every month, but he can also often go to Yi Zhonghai's house for meals.

The complexions of the two little girls, Xiaodang and Huaihua, finally returned to normal, and they were no longer as thin as before.

It can be said that the current life is the city life that Qin Huairu longs for.

The only thing that made her feel uncomfortable was that Ran Qiuye was pregnant, and she was still being taken care of very well by Sha Zhu.

Qin Huairu often thinks: "It would be great if I could marry Silly Zhu, then everything Ran Qiuye has now will be hers."

"Banggeng would not be in such a miserable situation now."

It's a pity that there is no if and no chance to regret.

"Forget it, these years of hard times are over, don't think about what you have and what you don't have."

In the courtyard, it was not just Qin Huairu himself who was dissatisfied with Shazhu, but also Xu Damao, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, especially Xu Damao.

Ever since he learned that Sha Zhu's daughter-in-law Ran Qiuye was pregnant, he had been avoiding Sha Zhu for fear that Sha Zhu would ridicule him for not having a child.

Qin Jingru also carefully served Xu Damao every day, and Xu Damao would hit or scold Qin Jingru if he had any slight disobedience to her.

After Xu Damao's parents learned the truth, they did not want to see Qin Jingru. If they were not afraid of affecting Xu Damao's current work, they would have divorced them long ago.

Even during the Chinese New Year this year, Xu Damao did not take Qin Jingru back, leaving Qin Jingru to eat the New Year's Eve dinner at home alone.

Qin Jingru also knew that she was in the wrong and did not dare to resist Xu Damao's beatings and scoldings.

Sometimes she also wonders, I heard that Xu Damao's first wife was not pregnant, is it really her fault?

She really wanted to take Xu Damao to the hospital for a check-up, but she didn't dare to speak. If she angered Xu Damao again, she would be completely doomed.

At Yi Zhonghai's house in the Intermediate Court, Yi Zhonghai was banging the pot on his pipe and saying dissatisfiedly: "Isn't it just that I'm pregnant? Do I need to take care of her so carefully every day?"

"I'm really not a man. Fortunately, I didn't choose this fool to support me in my old age."

Yi Zhonghai originally thought that He Daqing would be kicked out by Sha Zhu if he had no money, but the fact is that the life of Sha Zhu's family is getting better and better.

Even the eighth-level fitter like him in the factory couldn't compare, which made him feel depressed again.

Because the better Sha Zhu’s life is, it proves that Sha Zhu’s original choice was right.

Yi Zhonghai was a little puzzled. He knew very well what White Widow was like. He Daqing must have returned home cleanly, but where did he get so much money?

It was just that he had no evidence, otherwise he would have gone to the street office to report He Daqing.

Aunt Ma has lived with Yi Zhonghai for many years, so she naturally knows the resentment in Yi Zhonghai's heart.

But she didn't dare to persuade Yi Zhonghai. Who knew whether Yi Zhonghai would explode like Xu Damao.

Yi Zhonghai felt even more uncomfortable when he saw that his wife didn't pay attention to him.

If it weren't for the fact that the aunt couldn't give birth to a child, he wouldn't have lost so much money and offended so many people.

All of this is her fault, but she finally has two little girls to take care of herself in old age, so she doesn't have to worry like before.

At Sha Zhu's house in the middle courtyard, Ran Qiuye said to Sha Zhu: "Zhu Zhu, stop working so hard. Our dad and the third uncle are out fishing. You can just make some porridge."

Silly Zhu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Ran Qiuye with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, just rest. I will take care of all the housework at home from now on."

"If you are bored, watch TV or listen to the radio first."

"Wait a moment, the chicken soup will be ready soon. Let's take a bite first at noon."

Dad said I’ll bring a fish back to replenish it for you in the evening, and we’ll eat better tonight.”

Ran Qiuye said: "Zhuzi, although you are now the deputy director of the cafeteria, you still need to be more careful."

"Do you still have enough money in your pocket? If not, I will give it to you."

Silly Zhu said: "Dad gave me two hundred yuan yesterday, saying it was for family use."

"I don't want it dead or alive, but the old man still forces it on me."

"This is all the pension money Yuyu gave to the old man. To be honest, I really don't want it. Thinking of my previous bastard behavior, I really regret it."

Ran Qiuye said comfortingly: "Zhuzi, when the rain comes back, you should admit your mistake to her. I believe she will forgive you."

Silly Zhu said sadly: "How can I have the face to beg her for forgiveness? I was the one who was sorry for her in the first place."

Seeing Silly Zhu's sad expression, Ran Qiuye interrupted and asked, "Zhuzi, go to the door and see if dad is back."

"He and the third uncle went out in the morning. It's time to come back."

After Sha Zhu poured out the chicken soup, he tidied up the kitchen and then walked towards the entrance of the compound.

Silly Zhu walked to the door and watched an old lady with a stooped figure and very disheveled hair walking into the courtyard.

Although this old lady looked familiar, Silly Zhu still asked: "Old lady, who are you looking for? I am from this compound."

The old lady turned around and glared at him fiercely and said, "Silly Zhu, you piece of shit, don't you even recognize me?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Shazhu asked with some uncertainty: "Are you Jia Zhang?"

It turned out that this rickety old lady was the Jia Zhang family who was driven out of the compound by Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.

Mrs. Jia Zhang said angrily: "Silly Zhu, you ungrateful bastard, I am the elder of the compound after all, and you call me that?"

Silly Zhu was completely shocked, and immediately asked in confusion: "Jia Zhang, how did you become such a virtuous person?"

The original Jia Zhang was a fat man weighing more than 200 pounds, much fatter than Liu Haizhong.

Comparing her current thin appearance, she is simply not the same person. If her voice hadn't changed, Silly Zhu would never have believed that she was the old godly woman Jia Zhang.

It’s no wonder that Mrs. Jia Zhang is like this. She eats stick noodle porridge and steamed bread pickles every day. It would be strange if she doesn’t lose weight.

Coupled with endless farm work, the always pampered Jia Zhang family could not bear this.

These are not the most irritating things for Jia Zhang. The most irritating thing is that she was deceived by Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.

Both of them failed to cash in on the pension money they originally promised to mail her every month.

Not to mention eating meat, she usually has to plan to eat even steamed buns, otherwise she might have starved to death.

Even during the previous famine, she had never experienced such hardship, which made her full of hatred for Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai.

Mrs. Jia Zhang shouted loudly into the courtyard: "I, Mrs. Jia Zhang, are back again."
