Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

** in the yard

On the other side, deep in the yard, Wang Ping heated up the pig's trotters that Wu Damao brought last night and brought them to Xueer.

"Brother, where did this pig's trotter come from?" Xue'er asked with her eyes wide open.

"Xue'er, Wu Damao brought some back last night, eat it quickly."

Xueer nodded and smiled, and ate contentedly. Meanwhile, Yan Burong's family was also busy eating. In front of each person was a bowl of porridge and a fist-sized steamed bun, with a few pickles. This was their standard breakfast for many years.

At the dinner table, Yan Burong announced that he would hold a family meeting to discuss the family's future plans.

Yan's mother held Yan's hand and said, "Wait until your father finishes talking before eating."

Although several children were dissatisfied, they all looked at Yan Burong.

Yan Burong said seriously, "I thought about it carefully last night. Our family can't continue like this in the future."

Yan Wencheng asked curiously, "Dad, so I don't have to pay money home?"

Yu Li's eyes were full of expectation. Yan Wencheng was working odd jobs outside to earn money, and he only paid a dozen yuan a month to his family, leaving very little money.

Yan Burong shook his head helplessly. "The family spent a lot of money on your marriage. Is it reasonable not to pay? But I am not talking about money, but how to deal with the relationship with Wang Ping."

Yan ** said doubtfully: "We didn't bully Wang Ping, why should we change?"

The other children also discussed it, but in the end [Too much sensitive content, cannot be output further]

Sanjia's mother thought for a while and said, "You can go help Lao Li!"

"Mom, why can we help him? Even the deaf grandma and Uncle Zhao can't beat him. What else can he need our help with?" Dashan looked at Sanjia's mother with confusion.

Kurotsuchi also looked at her with confusion.

The third mother just mentioned it casually, without any specific thoughts. The eyes of the family were focused on her, which made her feel a little nervous.

"You can help him clean the yard."

The three Dashan brothers all shook their heads. "Mom, when we got up in the morning, he had already cleaned the yard. What else do you want us to do for you? Do you have any other ideas?"

The third mother said stubbornly: "Then you can help him clean the room and do the laundry..."

Dashan responded helplessly: "Mom, these things should be done by women. If you think we can do it, you can do it yourself!"

A gleam of light flashed in Heitu's eyes. He was reluctant to let Sanjia's mother do it, but the daughter-in-law at home was a ready-made choice.

Hua'er usually goes out to do odd jobs and is busy outside most of the time. The housework at home is already taken care of by Sanjia's mother, so there is no need for a daughter-in-law. Isn't this how the silly Zhu was cheated of all his family's wealth by the little fox Qin Huairu?

Since Qin Huai could do such things, why couldn't Yu Li do it? Yu Li was younger than her. Besides, wasn't Lou Xiao'e doing exactly these kinds of work at Old Li's house?

When Heitu expressed his thoughts, Dashan immediately objected. Yu Li was his newlywed wife, so how could he let his wife sweep the floor for others?

But Dashan was not the pillar of the family after all, and Yu Li herself had no position, so she was quickly convinced by Heitu's few words.

Only then did Heitu order the meal to begin.

Dashan quickly finished his portion and ran out under the pretext of washing his hands.

Heitu saw him running towards Lao Li's house and had no objection. As long as it could improve the relationship between Dashan and Lao Li, why would he stop him?

Dashan ran to Lao Li's house and immediately told him all of Heitu's plans. All his tricks were revealed.

After hearing this, Old Li was speechless. How could Heitu say such a thing in front of his daughter-in-law? He really wasn't afraid of losing face.

"Okay, Dashan, I get it. You're not full yet, come and eat something. These pig's trotters will have no taste if you don't eat them."

Dashan sat down with a smile. He knew that Lao Li would invite him to dinner, so he came to complain. This was also a way to win over the family, which did not violate the intentions of the family members and could deepen the relationship between them.

In the backyard, Shazi Zhu had just woken up. He had planned to stay in bed for a while, but when he found himself lying in the house of the deaf grandmother, he hurriedly got up and dressed.

After leaving the deaf grandmother's house, the conversation last night came to his mind again, and he felt bitter. Although he had money, he didn't dare to help Qin Huairu, which made him feel torn.

When passing by Xu Damao's house, he remembered that although Xu Damao lived a good life, he did not help at all. He got angry and kicked the door of Xu's house.

Xu Damao forgot to close the door yesterday, and it was kicked open. Through the door, Shazi Zhu saw Xu Damao lying on the table with an empty wine bottle and some leftover chicken bones on it, and he became more and more annoyed.

"There are people in this yard who only patronize themselves and live a comfortable life, and are never willing to help others. They deserve to be childless."

At this time, the second mother just went out to get water and missed the first half of the sentence. She only heard the latter part. "Silly Zhu, when you said 'you deserve to have no children', are you talking about Uncle Zhao?"

Shazi Zhu said impatiently: "Second mother, Uncle Zhao is always willing to help others. I didn't say him. I was talking about Xu Damao."

The second mother said doubtfully, "You clearly said 'you deserve to be childless'. The only person in the yard who doesn't have a child is Uncle Zhao, right?"

Shazi Zhu had no choice but to wave his hand and quietly left the backyard. He didn't want to argue with the second mother. If the argument became too heated, it would be bad if Teacher Yi found out.

As soon as he entered the middle courtyard, Qin Huairu came to greet him.

"Silly Zhu, why did you come back just now?"

Shazi Zhu scratched his head and said, "Sister Qin, the old lady wanted to chat. I talked to her for a long time and stayed at her place for the night."

"Why didn't you tell me? When you didn't come back, I thought something happened to you."

Qin Huairu took this opportunity to act cute. How could the fool Zhu hear anything? He was just confused by her expression.

Walking up to Ah Zhu, Yi Zhonghai smiled warmly, as if he was in the sunshine. He asked kindly, "Ah Zhu, Wang Kun has deducted your salary again, right? I know you are short of money, here is 30 yuan, I will lend it to you first."

Ah Zhu's eyes were instantly attracted by the money, but he did not take it immediately. Instead, he said embarrassedly: "Uncle Yi, I am really sorry to bother you. I have been too busy recently and have not been able to spare time. And..."

"Stop talking nonsense and take the money." Yi Zhonghai interrupted him without waiting for him to finish. Then he added, "Don't worry, you can pay me back when you have enough money."

Ah Zhu hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted the money. He was grateful, but also felt a little uneasy. Qin Huairuo stood aside, staring at the money, thinking secretly. Logically, they should get all the money, but now everyone is staring at them, which is not easy to do.

Qin Huairuo decided to find an opportunity later and quietly ask Ah Zhu for money. She thought: Ah Zhu is a cook, and a few dollars a month should be enough for him to eat and drink.
