Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

Chapter 199 Qin Jingru's Dilemma

Although He Yuzhu hated Qin Jingru, he took into consideration that Yan Qing'er was innocent and could not live without her mother's company, so he did not take any action against her. He did not use the "literary workers" to deal with Qin Jingru and parade her through the streets for criticism; instead, he only alerted the factory's security department and asked the security guards to scare her and drive her away from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

Qin Jingru, who was greatly frightened and disappointed, fled to the courtyard as soon as she left the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. Qin Jingru returned to the Yan family, but did not see her daughter Yan Qing'er, who liked to play outside, nor did she see any of the Yan family's adults at home. She sat down at the dining table in shock and wanted to pour some water to drink. At this time, the broken spoons and bowls and some blood on the ground caught her attention. But she usually didn't care about anything at the Yan family, so she didn't care about the garbage on the ground. She drank a few sips of water and went back to the house to take her nap.

Not long after Qin Jingru went back to sleep, Aunt Yan Yang Guier came back from a nearby hospital, holding Yan Qinger, whose hands and feet were bandaged, and followed by a wronged Yan Jie Di. In order to stop Yan Qinger from crying, Aunt Yan bought some candies on the way to comfort her, and she kept complaining to Yan Jie Di, "You are so old, but you can't even take care of your little niece. What's the point of leaving her at home to eat idle meals..."

Yan Qing'er's hands and feet were injured accidentally. In fact, Aunt Yan, Yang Gui'er and Yan Jie Di were blaming themselves in their hearts. They felt guilty towards Qin Jingru and were a little embarrassed to face her. So as soon as they got home, they put Yan Qing'er, who had cried herself to sleep, on the bed of the old couple Yan Bugui. Aunt Yan swept the floor and did housework, and Yan Jie Di consciously did manual work. Soon, the Yan family became quiet.

At the end of the working hours, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the eaves of the courtyard, bringing a touch of warmth to the tired people. Yan Bugui came home from get off work and didn't see his little granddaughter who liked to play at the door. He thought she was tired and sleeping, so he tended the leeks by the gatehouse of the Yan family as usual, humming model operas, keeping an eye on the people coming in and out, and wishing he could open the cloth bags in their hands to see what was inside.

Not long after, Li Youcai, who was full of anger, also came back from get off work. When he stepped into the front yard, he met Yan Bugui. He needed to vent his grievances, so he shouted without hesitation: "Uncle Yan, I find that you Yan family members really don't know what's good for you! At noon, your daughter-in-law Qin Jingru came to the steel mill to see Director He, but the security guard stopped her from entering. I thought we were neighbors, so I gave her a favor: I took her to see Director He without asking why."

"Uncle Yan, do you know what your daughter-in-law Qin Jingru wants to see Director He about?" Li Youcai stared at Yan Bugui and asked in a bad tone.

"What could be the problem? At most I can ask Zhuzi to help me find a job!" Yan Bugui replied randomly with a confused look on his face.

"Hey, what you think is pretty much the same as mine. I thought we were all neighbors, and at most we could help introduce jobs or something. As a result, your daughter-in-law went to Director He and said: He is the biological father of your granddaughter Yan Qing'er, and she kept asking for a job, a house, and 1 to 2 yuan..." Li Youcai stared at Yan Bugui with resentment and preached angrily.

After hearing what Li Youcai said, Yan Bugui was embarrassed and didn't know how to respond. At this moment, he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. The loud conversation between the two also attracted the whispers of people in the yard.

"Qin Jingru and Qin Huairu are on the same level, both wanting to take advantage of others to gain benefits. Qin Huairu resorted to many tricks just to eat up Yi Zhonghai's family, but ended up with two bastard daughters who were born from an affair with a wild man outside."

"Like elder sister, like younger sister. I think Qin Jingru wants to blackmail Zhuzi."

"It seems that none of the girls from the Qin family are good. She doesn't even think about being the deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee, someone she can blackmail at will..."

"Uncle Yan, I don't mean to make things difficult for you. Today, I just want to tell you: I brought your daughter-in-law into the steel mill, and as a result, I got punished: I will have to hang around the public toilet in the steel mill every day. Who did I offend? I helped my neighbor, but I got into trouble..." Li Youcai vented his inner grievances to Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui's old face turned red and he looked down at the ground. In order to prevent Li Youcai from entering the Yan family and making trouble, and disturbing the family members, he stood at the door of the Yan family and persevered, protecting everyone in the Yan family from wind and rain.

Qin Jingru had woken up a long time ago, but because what happened in the afternoon had a huge impact on her, she lay in bed in a daze, thinking about all sorts of things. The noise outside the Yan family's door had interrupted her chaotic thoughts. When she heard Li Youcai's blunt narration, she lay in bed with a guilty conscience, not daring to move at all.

In the Yan family kitchen, Yan Jiedi, who felt relieved, complained to her mother aggrievedly, "Mom, you heard what Li Youcai said! Can you believe now that I really saw my sister-in-law accompanying Yan Qing'er at noon, so I left, right?"

How could Aunt Yan Yang Guier not hear Li Youcai's big noise and the Yan family's small land? But she was in pain and couldn't say anything. She was worried, "The daughter-in-law's behavior was a complete copy of Qin Huairu's. The reputation of the old Yan family is probably completely ruined... And as a mother-in-law, for her son to have a home, even if Qin Jingru was only concerned with going out to blackmail people and didn't take good care of Yan Qing'er, causing her beloved granddaughter's hands and feet to be injured, what could she do?" Yan Jiedi's complaints seeking recognition did not make Aunt Yan say a word. She continued to busy herself with dinner silently.

As the aroma of food filled the courtyard, the front yard gradually calmed down. Yan Bugui returned home and told his wife the whole story. Several people in the Yan family heard it. Before Aunt Yan could reply, Yan Jiedi on the side spoke about Yan Qing'er's injury. Yan Bugui hurried into his bedroom and looked at Yan Qing'er's hands and feet wrapped in gauze. He was so distressed that he almost cried.

Yan Bugui suppressed his dissatisfaction and anger, called his wife Yang Guier into the bedroom, and told her about the long-buried desire to separate from his eldest son Yan. In this era, families with many sons basically separate as soon as they get married. Aunt Yan Yang Guier is also a traditional housewife, so of course she supports the separation.

When it was dinner time at the Yan family's house, Yan Jiecheng, who was working as a temporary worker, Yan Jiekuang, who was hanging out outside, and Qin Jingru, who was hiding in her room, all came to the table on their own accord. Yan Bugui and Yang Guier were Qin Jingru's father-in-law and mother-in-law after all, so how could they criticize their daughter-in-law in front of the whole family and humiliate her? Although they did not express their dissatisfaction with Qin Jingru, they took the opportunity of the whole family being together to express their idea of ​​separating from Yan Jiecheng and Qin Jingru.

In this era, it was very common for sons to separate after marriage. Yan Jiecheng agreed without much thought. Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiedi next to him had no objection. The Yan family had split up before, and they could improve their food. Yan Jiecheng was adopted by the Yan family from his rural hometown, but his household registration problem was not solved. In addition, Qin Jingru and Yan Qing'er also had rural household registration. After the separation, they lost their urban rations and coupons. Qin Jingru wanted to object, but with such a big thing happening today, she dared not say a word and could only be invisible.

There weren't many things in the Yan family's house, and it was easy to divide them. From the next day, Aunt Yang Guier stopped caring about the daily life of Yan Jiecheng and Qin Jingru. The only thing that made Yan Jiecheng and Qin Jingru feel fortunate was that the old couple Yan Bugui still loved their granddaughter Yan Qinger very much, and would always give her first priority when there was anything good.

Since the separation, Qin Jingru had never had a full meal relying on Yan Jiecheng's meager income. Either the food was so thin that you could not see a few grains, or she was considered rich if she could eat half a sweet potato. Whenever the old couple Yan Bugui prepared something delicious for Yan Qing'er, she would steal food from her daughter's bowl when no one was paying attention.

During the difficult and embarrassing days, whenever it was late at night, Qin Jingru would always ask herself: "Who slept with me that night..."
