"Do you really need to do some simple housework?" Jia Zhang sneered.

"This capitalist's daughter is really destined to be a lady. She can't do anything after getting pregnant?"

Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu and said, "When you were pregnant, didn't you do a good job of taking care of the household affairs?"

"If you really ask for an exorbitant amount, I'm afraid Shazhu won't agree." Qin Huairu continued to refute.

"Who cares if he agrees or not." Jia Dongxu was a little angry, "I haven't agreed to let you go yet!"

"Dongxu, our family needs the lunch box that Shazhu brought back." Qin Huairu advised kindly.

"His lunch box almost always has meat in it, which saves our family a lot of money."

"Before having this lunch box, couldn't we still survive?" Jia Dongxu snorted coldly.

"Banggeng is growing now, and our family owes a lot of favors to the old man." Qin Huairu frowned and pointed out bluntly.

"You can't get a raise for the time being. It's okay for us adults to suffer a little, but we can't let the children starve."

"What do you mean?" Jia Dongxu became furious when he heard Qin Huairu say that he couldn't get a raise.

"Qin Huairu, you are a country girl, and you dare to look down on me now?"

After hearing what Jia Dongxu said, Qin Huairu felt disappointed and didn't want to continue.

"Since you all object, I will go tell Sha Zhu tomorrow morning that I won't go, right?"

After saying this, Qin Huairu went outside the yard angrily.

When Qin Huairu was sitting at the door and secretly wiping her tears, she seemed even more desolate compared to the laughter coming from He Yuzhu's house.

She cared so much about the Jia family and she went to help them exchange for food herself, but not only was she not understood, she was even ridiculed.

It’s obvious that Jia Dongxu was not like this before.

Just when Qin Huairu was sad, Yi Zhonghai suddenly came out of the house.

"Qin Huairu, what happened?"

"It's okay, uncle." Qin Huairu quickly wiped away her tears and pretended nothing had happened.

"How can I help you if you don't tell me?" Yi Zhonghai asked Qin Huairu.

"Did Dongxu bully you?"

"Uncle, maybe you really need to persuade Dongxu about this matter."

Qin Huairu thought about it and decided to tell Yi Zhonghai about this.

After all, in her opinion, their family really needs the lunch box that Shazhu brings back.

After listening to Qin Huairu's words, Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will go and persuade her about this matter."

"Thank you, uncle." Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai and thanked him obediently, "We are sorry to trouble you all the time."

"You're welcome. As Dongxu's master, it's my duty to help."

Yi Zhonghai was not vague and directly called Jia Dongxu out from home.

After Qin Huairu saw the two of them come out, she didn't want to go home and stay alone with Jia Zhang, so she hid in the front yard.

"Qin Huairu, why are you not at home cooking at this time? Why are you suddenly running to the front yard?"

The third uncle was extremely surprised when he saw Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu cooks on time every day, and is basically nowhere to be seen at a certain time. Today is really unusual.

"Uncle, I came out to get some fresh air." Qin Huairu smiled politely, "You haven't eaten yet?"

"It's almost done." The third uncle grinned, "There are not many people at home recently, so cooking is not a big deal."

"Where are your family members?"

"Hey, these days, Xie Cheng and Yu Li go to her parents' home every day, while Jiefang and Jie Kuang are both at school.

So it’s just me, your third aunt, and Jie Dai at home.”

"Wouldn't that make the house very quiet?" Qin Huairu said with a smile.

"It's OK." The third uncle smiled, "It's troublesome to have too many people at home."

"That's true." Qin Huairu smiled faintly. She knew the Third Uncle's temper.

At home, when we eat peanuts, we have to share them equally with everyone. With fewer people, we have to worry less.

"Brother Jie Cheng and sister Yu Li have a very good relationship." Qin Huairu said with some envy.

Since she married Jia Dongxu, she has returned to her parents' home only a few times, and Jia Dongxu never accompanies her back.

"Hey, isn't that the case with newlyweds?" The third uncle smiled, "When you and Jia Dongxu first got married, you were very close."

Qin Huairu smiled, hiding the disdain in her eyes. Only she knew the situation of her family.

"Uncle, I won't bother you any more. I'm just taking a look around. It's time to go back."

"Okay, you can go back." The third uncle waved his hand and continued to fiddle with his flowers and plants.

Ever since He Yuzhu plucked all his flowers out last time, he hasn't recovered yet.

Qin Huairu walked around outside and then slowly returned to the central courtyard.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai had almost finished talking to Jia Dongxu.

Seeing Qin Huairu coming back, Jia Dongxu glanced at her with an uncomfortable expression on his face.

Yi Zhonghai waved towards Qin Huairu, "Qin Huairu, come here, you two can talk slowly, I will go back first."

After Yi Zhonghai left, Jia Dongxu waited for Qin Huairu to come over.

I thought Jia Dongxu would apologize to me, but I didn't expect him to stare at Qin Huairu with a gloomy face.

"Qin Huairu, do you have to go find Master to interfere in our family affairs?"

"I'm not, I didn't." Qin Huairu looked at Jia Dongxu aggrievedly, "Dongxu, we've been married for so many years, is this how you look at me?"

"If you didn't tell Master, how would he know about our family's affairs?" Jia Dongxu was furious. "For so many years, no matter what I did, Master's shadow was behind me. Are you going to say that you didn't tell him?"

Now Jia Dongxu finally understood why he always felt like he was under the shadow of Yi Zhonghai. Wasn't it because no matter what problems occurred at home, they had to ask Yi Zhonghai to solve them?

"Dongxu, you know the situation of our family very well." Qin Huairu saw that Jia Dongxu was a little excited, and she became calmer.

"If you want to eat better, it's definitely not enough."

"Bangteng is growing now, and Xiaodang will be two years old soon. He can't just eat these things that have little nutrition."

"I think you just want to have more contact with Shazhu." Jia Dongxu sneered.

"Dongxu, what are you talking about!" Qin Huairu's eyes were filled with shock, and tears flowed almost instantly.

"I work so hard every day trying to do more for my family, and you actually say that to me!"

"I went there when Shazhu went to work during the day, and I went home with my lunch box when he came back at night. Why do you think this way?"

Qin Huairu is now a little disappointed with Jia Dongxu, "You have never considered me at all!"
