Siheyuan: The happy life of a little chef

After a while, Qin Jianghai came back.

"Jianjun, you are here?"

Li Jianjun handed him a pack of cigarettes.

"It's a rare break, so I brought my family to visit you and have some fun."

Qin Jianghai didn't hesitate and quickly took the cigarette and put it in his pocket, otherwise it would be taken away by the old man soon.

Qin Dashan had already seen that there were two packs of cigarettes in the gift, so he naturally looked down on his son's pack.

"Jianjun, what do you want to play? It's not as fun here as in your city."

Li Jianjun smiled.

"It's not fun in the city. There's nothing interesting. I'm just here to fish today. They have their own plans."

Li Wenbin said hurriedly.

"Uncle Jiang Hai, why don't you take us to the mountains this afternoon?"

Qin Jianghai nodded.

"Okay, but you can only stay on the periphery. It's dangerous inside, so you can't go too deep."

Li Wenbin said happily.

"Great, we won't go in, we can just walk around outside."

At this time, Qin Huairu came and sat down next to Qin Dashan.

"Dad, Jiang He said he would take you to the city, why didn't you agree?"

Qin Dashan shook his head.

"No, I'm so old, why should I go to the city? I don't know anyone. I can still brag to your uncle in the village. Besides, you give me money every month. What's the difference between the city and the countryside? We are not as poor as before. We had no choice before and thought of going to the city to beg for food. Now it's not like we can't survive."

Qin Huairu stopped talking when he saw that he couldn't persuade her.

Li Wenbin said.

"Dad, I'll find a vacant lot to teach Dabao how to drive. I promised him."

Li Wenbin nodded.

"Be careful, you must sit in the passenger seat, okay?"

Li Wenbin said happily.

"Got it, let's go, Dabao."

At this time, Qin Shu and Qin Tian caught up.

"Wenbin, let's go take a look too."

Of course Li Wenbin wouldn't mind.

"Let's go together."

After the four children left, Li Jianjun stood up and said.

"Jianghai, where are the big fish? I'm going to show off my skills today."

Qin Jianghai said with a smile.

"Come on, I'll take you there. I can go fishing with you in the morning and hunt with Wenbin in the afternoon."

Qin Dashan sighed when he saw people leave.

"Huai Ru, go to your uncle's house. Your sister Jing Ru is back."

Qin Huairu said happily.

"Really? I haven't seen her in years. Let's go check her out."

Qin Dashan held her hand, thought for a moment, and then let go.

"Go ahead and take a look."

Qin Huairu felt a little strange, as if something had happened.

Soon they arrived at Qin Mancang's house.

Qin Huairu walked in and felt the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Qin Mancang was sitting at the door smoking, with his eldest son Qin Dalong sitting next to him, and Qin Dalong's wife was comforting his aunt.

Qin Huairu shouted.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

Qin Mancang raised his head and saw that it was Qin Huairu who came back, and forced a smile.

"Huai Ru is back? Come and sit down, old woman, go get some water."

Qin Dalong's wife felt it.

"Let me do it."

Qin Huairu introduced Han Chunyan, and only then did Qin Mancang know that Li Jianjun had arrived.

"Jianjun is here, so I have to go have a drink at noon."

Qin Huairu asked cautiously.

"Uncle, what happened?"

Qin Mancang sighed.

"Jingru is back and the situation is not good."

Qin Huairu was a little confused.

"What do you mean by not very good? Uncle, please explain clearly."

Qin Mancang was a little embarrassed, after all, this was a family matter, but Qin Dalong didn't care.

"Huai Ru, that bastard Alex To, he beat Jing Ru."

Alex To is Qin Jingru's man. Qin Jingru has nothing to do with the courtyard house, but she still envies Qin Huairu who married into the city, so she finds a city guy.

"Isn't Alex To very nice to Jing Ru?"

Qin Huairu asked doubtfully.

Qin Dalong gritted his teeth.

"What a jerk! He lost all the money in the family and had no other choice but to force Jingru to borrow money. Jingru didn't know any rich people, so she didn't agree to his request. He beat her once. Then, I don't know who told her that you are Jingru's sister and a factory manager. He forced Jingru to borrow money from you again. Jingru refused, so he beat her harder this time. Jingru ran back while he was sleeping."

Qin Huairu didn't expect that there was something about him in it, so he asked immediately.

"Where are the Jingru people?"

Qin Mancang pointed to the inner room.

"She was in the room, refusing to come out, and she cried until midnight last night."

Qin Huairu walked to the door and knocked.

"Jingru, it's me, your sister."

After waiting for a while, Qin Jingru opened the door and hugged Qin Huairu.

"Sister, woo woo woo."

Qin Huairu patted her on the back and took a closer look only to discover that Qin Jingru's face was covered in bruises, her hair seemed to have fallen out a lot and was a little messy, and her eyes were swollen.

Qin Huairu became angrier the more he looked at it, and yelled.

"You're just going to watch? Go find that bastard and beat him to death."

Whenever Qin Huairu thought of Qin Jingru following him around and calling him "sister" when she was a child, he felt heartbroken.

Qin Dalong also has a bad temper.

"We want to go too, but Jingru won't let us. She said that if we go, Alex To will definitely divorce her. What will we do then?"

Qin Huairu said unhappily.

"Divorce, you must divorce. We don't have a child anyway. If you don't divorce, are you going to watch Jingru get beaten to death by him?"

Qin Jingru pulled Qin Huairu's sleeve and cried.

"Sister, I can't get a divorce. What will I do if I get a divorce? If people find out, my parents will lose face."

Qin Huairu said anxiously.

"Why are you losing face? You can't make a living anymore, your life is almost gone, what's the point of having face? Listen to me, I'll make the decision for you."

Qin Jingru said in a dilemma.

"Sister, but what should I do if I get divorced? I can't just go home and be raised by my parents."

Qin Huairu comforted.

"Don't be afraid. When the time comes, go to work in my factory and no one will dare to bully you."

Han Chunyan also felt very sympathetic towards Qin Jingru and was extremely glad that she married Li Jianjun.

"Don't be afraid, Jingru. We will support you. I wonder if he still has the law."

Qin Jingru was very touched.

"Sister, thank you, thank you, I really can't live like this anymore, wuwuwuwu."

Qin Huairu led her to sit down and asked.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Qin Jingru said while crying.

"He was very nice to me at first, but he became colder after a few years. I thought it was because I didn't give him a child and felt guilty about it, so I didn't say anything. Until a while ago, I found out that he was having affairs with several women. He also gambled and sold things at home when he lost. We didn't even have a good chair in our home anymore."

Qin Huairu took out a handkerchief and handed it to her.

"Then why are you involving me again?"

Qin Jingru said.

"He forced me to borrow money before, but I didn't know anyone in the city, so no one was willing to lend me money. He beat me up when I failed to get the money. Then, after a while, when he was drinking, he heard others say that you were my sister and the factory manager. He forced me to borrow money from you again. I refused, so he beat me again. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I ran back home while he was asleep."

Qin Huairu thought for a moment and asked.

"Did he say who told him that?"

Qin Jingru said while crying.

"He said his friend's mother heard it from your mother-in-law."

Qin Huairu understood that it must be that Jia Zhang went out to brag and was heard by someone and the news reached Alex To's ears, which led to Qin Jingru being beaten.
