Xu Damao's Thirty-Six Stratagems in Siheyuan

"Sister Huairu, I really wanted to find you, but I didn't expect you to be waiting for me here."

Push the cart to a corner and prop it up. Take out the application form for the food factory under the supply and marketing cooperative from your briefcase and hand it to Qin Huairu.

"Sister Huairu, keep this. This is the application form for temporary workers at the food factory. You can just go and sign up for three months. The monthly salary is about 20 yuan. But there is one thing. If you don't go, you can't sell it. I will use my connections to appoint you to go. If you have made up your mind to work, then report within three months. As for the rest, you can handle it yourself. I don't want you to divorce. Just think it over clearly. No matter how you make the decision, it's up to you. I'm leaving. My Xiao'e is pregnant and I have to go take care of her."

When Qin Huairu heard that Lou Xiao'e was pregnant and Xu Damao was taking care of her, she felt envious and jealous. "Then go ahead. I don't know if you will take care of me if I get pregnant one day."

She carefully folded the registration form, stuffed it into her underwear, then watched Xu Damao's departing back and returned to Yard 95 dejectedly.

Qin Huairu lay on the kang in the middle of the night, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. On one side came the thunderous snoring of Jia Zhang, and next to her was the sound of Jia Dongxu grinding his teeth, and Banggeng was restless in his sleep, kicking the quilt. Xiaodang was sleeping quietly on the kang with grievance, while Qin Huairu was awake, thinking about the several good things she had done with Xu Damao, which made her reminisce often. Moreover, not long ago, Xu Damao said that he would find a job for her, and not long after, he, Xu Damao, found one for her. Alas, there is really no gap without comparison. Thinking about Jia Dongxu, he is really nothing. He can neither meet Qin Huairu's daily necessities of food and clothing, nor meet her growing physiological needs. He seems to be living like a walking corpse. The mother-in-law is incredibly lazy, and her son is really a bit wasted now.

Divorce or not? It's so difficult. It's really hard for a person to get divorced with a daughter. But the Jia family is really worse off than dogs.

Qin Huairu fell asleep in a daze, but when she woke up early and Jia Zhang yelled at her to get up and make breakfast, she decided to follow Xu Damao's advice and completely escape from this inhumane family. She had a job, even if it was only 20 yuan, it was better than staying in the Jia family.

Three months is enough time for Qin Huairu to plan her future well.

I endured the sleepiness and made a simple breakfast, which was nothing more than corn porridge, steamed bread, pickles, and at most fried cabbage. It was enough to fill my stomach.

Under the pretext of going out for a walk, I took Xiao Dang to the supply and marketing cooperative, which was the food factory, to look around and learn the detailed address so that I could find a way to rent a house later. Fortunately, it was also in the area of ​​Hongxing Street, ten miles away from No. 95 Courtyard.

In Juer Hutong, Qin Huairu took advantage of the fact that Jia Zhang was taking a nap every afternoon and Banggeng was not at home for school to scout the terrain. She also took the initiative to ask for the house number of Jia Dongxu's Banggeng. Oh, the conditions are really good. He lives in an independent courtyard. Although there are no wing rooms, there is an independent courtyard, plus three south rooms.

Finally, on the Saturday after the Lantern Festival, the 21st day of the first lunar month, Jia Dongxu said he wanted to go for a walk after dinner.

Qin Huairu knew that most likely he went to Guibangjian in Juer Hutong.

She cleaned up the house, made an excuse to go to the toilet, and went to Juer Hutong with a pair of tailor's scissors.

From a distance, she saw the lights on in the yard, but the gate was locked tightly. Qin Huairu used a pair of tailor's scissors to unbolt the door, tiptoed into the yard, and heard the voices of Jia Dongxu and a woman inside.

She kept sitting under the window listening to the noises in the house. After about half an hour, Qin Huairu heard a woman's panting.

At this moment, Qin Huairu straightened her back, holding a long and sharp pair of tailor's scissors in her hand, and kicked the door open.

Shamelessly doing it with the lights on. How dare you.

Before the two could react, Qin Huairu took all the clothes of Jia Dongxu and the woman, including their underwear, vests and shorts, rolled them up, and wrapped them with her coat and carried them in her hand. She waved the scissors in her right hand, "Jia Dongxu, how should this end? Either cut off the two taels of meat and become a eunuch in the new society, or report to the police and the street office. You tell me, I'm listening."

Jia Dongxu and the woman were so frightened that they were trembling. How could they dare to say anything? The end of Jing Gong was very miserable. Jia Dongxu would not only lose his job, but also be fired from the factory. He would never find a job again. How would he live in the future? Most importantly, his reputation would be gone. He would be a stinking dog shit everywhere.

"Huairu, please forgive me this time. I won't dare to do it again next time."

"Next time? This isn't the first day you've been fooling around together. Jia Dongxu, take a pen and paper and write me a letter of apology. Write down clearly when it all started and what happened today. Write until I'm satisfied."

Fortunately, the room was still warm. When Jia Dongxu got off the kang naked, Qin Huairu said to the woman wrapped in a quilt, "What's your name? You are not a good person with the door half closed. Today, I am mainly targeting Jia Dongxu, but you are not much better. Bring me a hundred yuan as compensation later. You have taken at least a hundred yuan from this bastard in my family. Give it back to me."

Hao Zhaodi trembled and quickly agreed, and took out a hundred yuan from the cabinet and handed it to Qin Huairu, "That person, it's none of my business. It's because your husband said you didn't let him get on the bed that this happened."

Qin Huairu shook the scissors, shocking Hao Zhaodi.

Jia Dongxu wrote a letter of repentance with trembling hands. Qin Huairu took it and read it. Hmm, it's quite detailed. Not bad.

She asked both of them to sign the confession, and then she brutally took their fingers, cut them, and stamped the blood on the confession. Qin Huairu blew on the blood on the confession, and when it was almost dry, she put it in her cotton jacket pocket and threw the bag of clothes on the kang.

"Jia Dongxu, tomorrow we will go to the street office to get a divorce. You have to prepare 500 yuan for me, otherwise I will take my confession to the police and the street office to handle the matter. I don't want to make a big deal out of it. You can do whatever you want. Just tell me whether you have money or not. I also know that your mother will not keep Xiaodang in the Jia family. Xiaodang is only six years old. The child support of yuan a month will cost yuan. You also need to compensate me for the loss of youth of yuan. I will give you an integer, yuan, not a single cent less, otherwise Qin Huairu and you, Jia Dongxu, will be doomed. Remember, I want to see the money when we get a divorce tomorrow. Okay, you guys continue. I won't disturb you anymore."

Qin Huairu slammed the door and left with a pair of scissors in her hand. Soon she returned to Compound No. 95.

When they got home, Jia Zhang scolded him, "You shameless ungrateful bastard, you eat and wear the Jia family's clothes. Tell me for a while, how long has it been? Have you been doing something shameful behind my Dongxu's back? Tell me, you country woman."

Qin Huairu raised her tailor's scissors and pointed them at the short and fat Jia Zhang, "Yes, I am a country woman, you are classy, ​​a short and fat city woman. If you keep arguing, I will use these scissors to stuff your stinky mouth tonight, do you believe it?"

He simply ignored Jia Zhang's subsequent actions, went into the inner room, put Xiao Dang to sleep, and began to pack his and Jia Dang's clothes. After a while, he packed a small bag, placed it on the edge of the kang, and then went to the main room in the middle courtyard.

Qin Huairu knocked on the door of He Yuzhu's house, handed Jia Dongxu's letter of repentance, the food factory registration form and the hundred yuan that Hao Zhaodi had just given her to Yu Li, and asked her to keep it for her. Yu Li was a little confused.

Qin Huairu still has to prevent Jia Dongxu from taking desperate measures.
