Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

He Yuzhu was immediately interested when he heard this. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, his face full of curiosity and suspicion. He chuckled and asked, "Wow! Zheng Niang, you can do this? Tell me quickly, what kind of top-secret information is it?"

Seeing He Yuzhu's reaction, Zheng Niang became more and more proud, and a mysterious smile appeared on her face. She cleared her throat and was about to speak when Xu Damao's mother suddenly came out of the house. She was holding a handful of fresh vegetables just picked from the yard, with a gentle smile on her face, but her eyes revealed a subtle scrutiny.

He Yuzhu caught a glimpse of Xu Damao's mother and immediately walked over to her with a bright smile on his face. He greeted her enthusiastically: "Hey, Auntie, are you ready to cook? Look how fresh these vegetables are! It will definitely be another delicious meal today. We are in for a treat!"

As he spoke, he naturally reached out his hand and took the vegetables from Xu Damao's mother. His movements were extremely skillful, as if he had done it countless times, making people feel that the relationship between them was very close, just like a family.

Zheng Niang looked at He Yuzhu's back as he turned and left, with an unhappy look on her face, but she couldn't say anything else, so she could only shut her mouth in dismay, with a trace of unwillingness and resentment flashing in her eyes. However, she knew in her heart that now was not the time to cause trouble, so she found an excuse and hurried back to the house. Before leaving, she glared at He Yuzhu fiercely, as if to vent all her resentment.

He Yuzhu heard the sound of the door closing behind him, sighed helplessly, and continued walking home.

After entering the house, he placed the vegetables in his hand by the sink and began to wash them skillfully. As the water splashed, He Yuzhu's thoughts gradually drifted away, recalling what Zheng Niang had not finished saying just now. While cutting the vegetables, his movements were neat and tidy, he muttered to himself: "Zheng Niang said half of what she said and left the other half. What is the news? Looking at her smug look, it must be something serious! Could it be related to Xu Damao?"

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu couldn't help shaking his head, his mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile. He secretly thought that Zheng Niang's words sounded a bit meaningful and curious. He was always looking forward to this kind of gossip and wanted to see what would happen. On the other hand, after Xu Damao went to the countryside, he was arranged to live in the village chief's house.

It was late at night, and everything was quiet, with only the faint chirping of insects occasionally breaking the tranquility of the night. Xu Damao lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. It seemed as if there was a tangled mess in his heart that made him unable to calm down. The moonlight shone through the window lattice and onto his face, reflecting his inner contradictions and uneasiness.

Zhang San's words and Sha Zhu's reminder kept echoing in his mind. He thought for a while: "If Zhang San really discovered Zheng Niang's secret, then shouldn't I stop the loss in time and catch the adulterous couple to maintain my dignity and family peace? In this way, I can not only solve the problem, but also establish my own prestige and make people dare not look down on me anymore."

However, he couldn't help but worry: "What if the incident gets too serious? Not only will it affect my reputation, it may even affect my future. What should I do? After all, in this era, reputation is very important to a person. If I am criticized for this, I am afraid that even my work will be affected."

Thinking of this, Xu Damao frowned even more tightly, and he shook his head vigorously, trying to get rid of these worries from his mind. However, Zhang San's words were like a spell, constantly echoing in his ears, making his heart heavier.

Xu Damao turned over irritably, put his hands behind his head, stared at the ceiling, and silently considered various possibilities. His fingers tapped the bed unconsciously, making a slight sound that was particularly clear in the quiet night.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he muttered to himself, "Maybe Shazhu is just trying to scare me. How could Zheng Niang, such a gentle and kind girl, betray me? She has been my wife for so long and has always been well-behaved and sensible. She shouldn't be so vicious."

The more Xu Damao thought about it, the more he felt that he was worrying too much. He comforted himself, "Maybe it was just Shazhu's nonsense that made me have unnecessary suspicion. Zheng Niang will never let me down. She must be waiting for me at home."

Thinking of this, Xu Damao felt a little relieved, but still a little uneasy. He decided to wait until tomorrow when he got home to observe Zheng Niang's words and deeds to see if there was anything unusual. At the same time, he also wanted to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Zheng Niang to understand her recent situation and eliminate the misunderstanding between them.

With these thoughts, Xu Damao's eyelids gradually became heavy. He saw Zheng Niang's familiar face, with a sweet smile and eyes full of love...

Finally, he sighed and decided to wait and see what would happen, praying in his heart: "I hope everything can go according to my plan, so that I can solve the problem and save myself."

Just like this, three people, in three different places, each with their own thoughts, spent a sleepless night.

Early the next morning.

Liu Ping'an gently removed Qin Jingru from his arms, fearing that he would disturb her sweet dream, and then he quietly stood up, trying not to make any noise. He walked lightly to a corner of the room, picked up the clothes that had been prepared long ago, and quickly and skillfully changed into them. When washing up, he deliberately adjusted the water flow of the faucet to the minimum so as not to wake up his family. During the whole process, he always had a gentle and firm smile on his face, as if he was full of expectations for the new day.

Liu Pingan sat with his family at the breakfast table. He briefly explained today's schedule while eating, revealing his seriousness in work and sense of responsibility to his family. His family members nodded in understanding, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious. After finishing the last bite of the meal, he stood up and patted the corners of his clothes. His movements were efficient, and his eyes flashed with enthusiasm for work.

When Liu Pingan arrived at the steel mill, he did not hesitate to find his colleagues in the Propaganda Department. He briefly explained today's task - not only to conduct an on-site inspection of the drought situation, but also to do a good job of propaganda to raise the villagers' awareness of drought resistance. When assigning tasks, his tone was firm, and every word revealed his unquestionable leadership, while at the same time he was caring and ensured that every comrade was clear about his responsibilities.

When Qin Huairu appeared in front of everyone, Liu Ping'an's eyes softened unconsciously. Although they didn't say much, a glance was enough to convey thousands of words. Liu Ping'an deliberately arranged this trip, both for work and to spend some time with Qin Huairu. He subtly adjusted the marching order of the team so that he could walk side by side with Qin Huairu without appearing to be deliberate.
