Siheyuan: Lou Xiao'e, Yu Li and the Savage Woman

Yan Bugui was in a good mood.

He enthusiastically helped Cao Haotian gut the hen.

And wash it clean with clean water.

Before leaving, he took back the chicken intestines that Cao Haotian didn't want...

After cutting the hen into pieces, Cao Haotian took a small iron pot and prepared to make clay pot chicken.

More than half an hour later, the aroma of chicken spread throughout the backyard and drifted to the middle yard...

"Whose family is eating meat? Could it be Xu Damao's family?"

Liu Haizhong opened the door while eating an egg.

Soon, he discovered that the aroma of chicken came from Cao Haotian's house.

"This kid really doesn't know how to live. He's not even married yet, and he still eats meat..."

Xu Damao also smelled the fragrance of chicken.

"You son of a bitch, you beat me up last night and now you're eating chicken. Just wait for me, I'll make sure you can only eat paper chickens from now on..."

Xu Damao spat three times at Cao Haotian's door.

He turned back to the house and started drinking alone.

At this time, the deaf old lady next door also opened the door with a sniff.

Although her ears are sometimes deaf and sometimes not, her nose still works pretty well.

Following the aroma of chicken, she knocked on Cao Haotian's door: "I say, new boy, do you know how to respect the elders?"

"When the meat is cooked, bring a bowl to my old lady."

"If you dare to neglect me, I, the old lady, will tell Yi Zhonghai to punish you..."

Cao Haotian opened the door: "Get out!"

"If you want to eat meat, go find your grandson Shazhu."

"I heard that he brought back a sausage from the factory yesterday..."

He ignored the other person, slammed the door shut and bolted it.

"How dare you scold me, kneel down and apologize, and bring me a pot of meat."

"Otherwise, I will definitely ask Yi Zhonghai to kick you out of the yard..."

The deaf old lady was shaking with anger.

But Cao Haotian in the room ignored her.

I mixed some dough and stuck it to the edge of the iron pan.

Wait a few more minutes and you can eat it.

Seeing no response from the house, the deaf old lady walked tremblingly towards the central courtyard.

At the same time, in the west wing of the central courtyard.

The Jia Zhang family of five were having dinner.

Fried cabbage, cornmeal steamed buns, and cornmeal porridge.

The steamed bread was only the size of Xiaodang's fist, and there were ten of them in total.

The ten-year-old Banggeng got three, while the four-year-old Xiaodang only got one...

"Chicken, I smell the aroma of chicken?"

Banggeng dropped the steamed bread in his hand and stood up from the stool.

"Grandma, I'm thin. I want to eat chicken..."

Bang Geng ran into Jia Zhang's arms and shook her thighs, which were thicker than a thermos bottle.

"It's true. My eldest grandson has indeed lost weight recently."

"This should be Shazhu eating chicken. Huairu, go borrow a bowl for my grandson."

Jia Zhang gave the orders in a domineering manner.

Qin Huairu nodded.

Jia Zhang often asked her to borrow things from Sha Zhu's house.

As long as she is a little careful, she can basically borrow it.

But never paid it back...

"What can you put in such a small bowl?"

Jia Zhang accused him viciously: "You take that big bowl at home and you can't do anything well every day. Do you believe that I will let Dongxu drive you back to the countryside?"

Qin Huairu had no choice but to do as she was told. She took out a large bowl from the cupboard and walked towards Sha Zhu's house.

"Mom, can't you be nicer to Huairu?"

Jia Dongxu said in a low voice.

"I've been good enough to her."

Jia Dongxu sighed: "Mom, if you let Huairu go to a bachelor to ask for meat, how will the people in this courtyard look at me?"

"Dongxu, mother knows her limits."

"Don't worry, Qin Huairu wouldn't dare to do anything to let down our Jia family."

"And Sha Zhu will fall for this. If we let her go, she will definitely bring back the meat."

Jia Zhang was confident.

Qin Huairu came to Sha Zhu's house with a large bowl.

Before I entered the house, I heard the voice of the deaf old lady coming from inside: "My good grandson, I want to eat meat."

"I say, old lady, I don't even have meat to eat, where can I get meat for you?"

"I still have two steamed breads left, why don't you take them back?"

Sha Zhu didn't expect that the deaf old lady would come to his house late at night and ask for meat.

"I don't want to eat steamed bread. I want to eat meat."

"You have sausages but you don't give them to me. You have become a bad boy..."

The deaf old lady sat down on the bed.

"I don't have any sausages. Who told you that?"

Sha Zhu started to complain.

He couldn't do anything about the old man, so he prepared to go out and find Yi Zhonghai.

As soon as I went out, I saw Qin Huairu.

"Sister Qin, is there anything you need from me?"

Every time he saw Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu felt warm in his heart.

He was very jealous of Jia Dongxu.

It only cost ten dollars to marry such a beautiful woman.

Sometimes Sha Zhu would think: If I also take out ten dollars, I wonder if Sister Qin would be willing to accompany him once?

If that doesn't work, twenty will do.

"My mother-in-law asked me to come and borrow a bowl of chicken from you."

"I didn't want to come, but she scolded me and forced me to come..."

"Silly Zhu, I know you're the best, can you lend me a bowl of chicken?"

Qin Huairu is indeed an expert at playing the victim.

Tears were rolling in her eyes, seemingly unable to fall away, making her look very aggrieved.

Sha Zhu suddenly felt a pain in his heart.

He grabbed Qin Huairu's hand.

But Qin Huairu broke free and took a step back.

Because she knew that her mother-in-law was in the room behind her, leaning against the window and peeking at her.

"Sister Qin, don't cry first."

"I really want to lend it to you, but I don't have any chicken at home."

"I also smelled the aroma of chicken. I guess it came from Xu Damao's house in the backyard."

Two tears fell from her eyes, and Qin Huairu sobbed and said, "Then how can I explain this to my mother-in-law when I go back?"

"She will definitely scold me for not being able to handle such a small matter, and she might not even let me sleep in the bed at night..."

Sha Zhu quickly comforted her: "Sister Qin, don't worry, I'll coax the deaf old lady away first."

"I will make sure you go back with an explanation."

Sha Zhu went back to the house, took out fifty cents and handed it to the deaf old lady.

After saying a few more nice words, the old lady took the money and walked towards the backyard.

Afterwards, Sha Zhu invited Qin Huairu into the house.

Took out six eggs from the closet.

"I'll keep two for my sister tomorrow morning, and you can take these four back for your children. That way you can give your mother-in-law an explanation."

Without any hesitation, Qin Huairu took the four eggs.

"That's not enough!"

There are five people in the family, including my mother-in-law, Dongxu, Banggeng and Xiaodang.

Obviously, four eggs were not enough.

Sha Zhu had no choice but to give her another one.

After thinking for a while, he gave the last egg in his hand to Qin Huairu: "My sister is an adult now, she doesn't need to eat it anymore, you can take it back!"

Qin Huairu thanked him repeatedly: "Shazhu, you are a good person, I will definitely remember your kindness..."

She walked out the door with the eggs in her hand. When she passed by the dining table, she took away the two remaining steamed buns on the table...
