Siheyuan: After traveling through time, who can still be an honest person?

Li Huaide came to the detention room of the security department of the steel rolling mill. After sending away the people from the security department, he went to see Xu Damao alone.

"Director Li, I am innocent!"

As soon as Xu Damao saw Li Huaide, he rushed over and knelt on the ground with a plop.

Li Huaide sneered: "Da Mao, you are really amazing. I really misjudged you. I didn't expect you to dare to play tricks on me!"

Xu Damao hugged Li Huaide's thigh and said anxiously: "Director, I actually wanted to find a chance to give you those gold bars and jewels I confiscated..."

"You bastard! How dare you throw dirty water on me at this time!"

It would have been fine if Xu Damao didn't mention the gold bars. As soon as he mentioned the gold bars, Li Huaide kicked him to the ground in anger.

Xu Damao got up, knelt in front of Li Huaide again, and cried, "Director, everything I said is true!"

"shut up!"

Li Huaide looked back at the door of the detention room warily, then took out the broken gold bar from his pocket and said grimly:

"Da Mao, take a good look, this is the gold bar you gave me!"

Xu Damao raised his head, looking at the metal bar wrapped in the gold bar in a daze, and muttered: "This is... fake? How can it be fake?"

"You're still fucking pretending!"

Li Huaide was so angry that he wanted to kick him again, but he endured it, thinking that he had something important to say to him later.

"Xu Damao, remember this. If someone interrogates you, think carefully about what you can and cannot say."

Li Huaide threatened: "If you dare to involve me, I promise to make your life worse than death!"

Xu Damao shuddered when he heard this, "Director, I beg you, you can't just stand by and watch someone die..."

"Don't worry, as long as you keep your mouth shut and admit that you were just greedy for a moment, I will find a way to save your life." Li Huaide's tone changed and he comforted him.

Xu Damao understood the hidden meaning and said in a trembling voice, "Does this mean I'm going to jail?"

"This is the best possible outcome. I can only save you a few years in prison. If you want to hate someone, just hate Cao Yue. Who made you have a grudge against him?"

After that, Li Huaide put away the fake gold bars and gave one last reminder before leaving: "Remember my words, don't make mistakes."

After Li Huaide left, Xu Damao's crying was heard from the detention room.

……

Siheyuan.

Xu Damao’s incident was like a thunderclap, making some people happy and some people worried.

Jia family.

Bang Geng is making trouble again.

"Mom, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat..."

When Banggeng saw that dinner was cornmeal porridge again, he sat down on the ground, kicking his legs and crying.

"Banggeng, how old are you? Aren't you ashamed?" Qin Huairu scolded with a cold face.

Bang Geng cried, "Mom, you promised to buy me meat today, but you didn't keep your word..."

Qin Huairu said unhappily, "Mom only earns so little a month, and she has to support five or six people. It's good enough that she can eat cornmeal."

Jia Zhang's triangular eyes pierced Qin Jingru and muttered, "Food is rationed. If the idle people eat more, my eldest grandson will eat less."

"As a mother, you don't care about your child. Banggeng has become skinny due to hunger!"

Qin Jingru's face turned red. She knew that he was talking about her and felt inexplicably aggrieved.

Jia Zhang looked at Qin Jingru indifferently and snorted coldly.

Xu Damao messed up things and I heard he was going to go to jail, so naturally the traffic for his affair with Qin Jingru was ruined.

She originally wanted to marry into a rich family, but now that hope is gone, Jia Zhang naturally would not tolerate Qin Jingru staying at home and eating nothing.

Qin Huairu had more on her mind.

Now that my cousin has lost her virginity, it will be difficult for her to find a good family in the future.

Qin Huairu didn't want her to stay here any longer.

She had originally planned to buy meat today, but when she heard that Xu Damao had gotten into trouble, she immediately changed her mind.

I decided to be patient for a day and wait until my cousin leaves tomorrow before buying it.

Qin Jingru finished the cornmeal porridge in the bowl, said she was going to the toilet, stood up and left the house.

Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng who was still sulking and said with a smile, "Banggeng, Shazhu will be back to work in the cafeteria tomorrow, and our family will no longer be short of meat to eat."

"really?"

Not only Banggeng, Xiaodang and Huaihua were happy, but Jia Zhang was also extremely excited when she heard it.

Then Jia Zhang cursed: "Damn Sha Zhu, if he hadn't offended Director Li, how could our family have gone without meat for so many days!"

"And that little bastard Cao Yue, who eats a lot of fish and meat every day and extorts money from me..."

"You're crazy!" Qin Huairu interrupted Jia Zhang's words, "Xu Damao has offended Cao Yue and is about to go to jail. You still dare to talk nonsense. Aren't you afraid that he will arrest you too?"

Jia Zhang was so frightened that her face turned pale and she quickly covered her mouth.

Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang's appearance and suddenly an idea came to her mind - it would be a good idea for the old woman to go to jail.

The more I think about it, the more excited I become.

I must steal the old woman’s pension money first... Qin Huairu said secretly.

……

Qin Jingru walked out of the Jia family in tears and unknowingly came to the backyard.

Seeing that the light was on in Cao Yue's house, he hesitated for a long time before he mustered up the courage to knock on the door.

Cao Yue was cooking dinner at home alone.

Su Rong and Han Ziyan will stay in the hospital dormitory to pack their things at night and will not be coming back tonight.

"It's you." Cao Yue frowned after opening the door.

The moment Qin Jingru saw Cao Yue, she covered her mouth and started crying.

Cao Yue glanced at the moon door and quickly pulled Qin Jingru into the house.

"Do you have something to talk to me about?" Cao Yue asked.

Qin Jingru looked at Cao Yue with resentment. The man in front of her was too ruthless. Even though she had treated him like that, he still asked this question in a cold-blooded manner.

Cao Yue also felt that he had gone too far. He had originally promised to help Qin Jingru marry Xu Damao, but in the blink of an eye he sent Xu Damao to jail.

"Well, Xu Damao can't come back, what are your plans for the future?"

Qin Jingru shook her head and tears started flowing again.

Cao Yue thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Do you want to go back to the countryside or stay in the city?"

"Ah?" Qin Jingru was stunned, not knowing why Cao Yue asked that.

"If you want to go back to the countryside, I can give you some money; if you want to stay in the city, I can find you a temporary job," Cao Yue explained.

Qin Jingru asked in disbelief: "Can I...can I stay in the city?"

"of course can."

Cao Yue pondered and said, "You can even live in Xu Damao's house and tell others that you have chosen Xu Damao and are waiting for him to be released from prison."

Qin Jingru was even more surprised: "Will Xu Damao's parents agree if I move in?"

Cao Yue smiled and said, "You may not know this yet, but Xu Damao's house has already been sold to me."

"What?" Qin Jingru opened her bright red little mouth.

There were so many things that surprised her today.

"You...why are you so nice to me?" Qin Jingru looked at Cao Yue in a daze and asked with a blushing face.

Cao Yue straightened his chest and said in a resounding voice: "Because I am a good person!"

Qin Jingru blinked and whispered, "I don't know how to repay you..."

Even sisters have to settle accounts clearly, let alone Cao Yue, an outsider.

"You know." Cao Yue said meaningfully.

Qin Jingru took a deep breath and began to take off her clothes with trembling hands.
