Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

At this time, Jia Zhang had already been taken away from the old city of Sijiu and was preparing to go to the old revolutionary base in northern Shaanxi with no hope of returning.

The Jia family's courtyard.

Qin Huairu did not go to work today, but waited for news from the street office at home.

"Mom, if grandma doesn't come back and you go to work, who will look after us two, and what will we eat for lunch?" Xiao Dang asked Qin Huairu who was pacing back and forth on the ground.

"Eat, eat, eat. You only know how to eat. Find your grandma first." Qin Huairu stopped and looked at her daughter who only knew how to eat. She just gave her a lecture.

But she changed her mind and realized that what Xiaodang said was the reality. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and if the food was cooked ahead of time, it would probably go bad by noon. So she stopped talking and let her two daughters go play somewhere else.

"Knock, knock, knock", the door suddenly opened.

"Qin Huairu, we have visited the surrounding area, including the steel mill and He Yuzhu who had a conflict with your mother-in-law, but we haven't seen your mother-in-law."

"I guess he was either kidnapped or he fled for fear of being punished." As soon as Qin Huairu opened the door, two staff members from the street office informed her of the investigation and left.

"How could this happen? How could he just disappear from the face of the earth?" Qin Huairu couldn't accept the news.

"Since Jia Dongxu's death, Jia Zhang has become lazy and can't give Qin Huairu any advice on weekdays, but she is still someone she can talk to,"

"When Qin Huairu had something bothering her, she would talk to her mother-in-law, and the two widows could help each other to get by. But this suddenly disappeared. Qin Huairu looked at this family and her two young daughters, and suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing."

Thinking back on the first half of her life, she first lost her husband, then her son, and now her mother-in-law is missing. She suddenly felt scared and called her two daughters over, hugged them tightly in her arms, and burst into tears.

She was crying when she suddenly stood up and rushed to He Yuzhu's house.

"Knock, knock, knock", someone knocked on the door of He Yuzhu's house.

"Silly Zhu, come out here,"

"Where did you hide my mother-in-law?"

Qin Huairu's action scared Li Xiuzhi in the room, but she didn't dare to open the door for fear of hurting her child.

"Open the door, why are you hiding in the house?"

Soon the noise in the middle yard alarmed the people in the front and back yards, who all came out to watch the excitement.

"Qin Huairu, what are you doing again? Why can't the Jia family in the courtyard be quiet for a while?" Xu Damao, who was not at work, heard Qin Huairu's voice on the way and asked his wife as he walked towards the central courtyard.

But when he turned around the moon gate in the middle courtyard, he looked up and saw Qin Huairu smashing the door of He Yuzhu's house, so he rushed over. The third uncle, who had no work to do, also noticed the situation and came to help.

Xu Damao reached out and pushed Qin Huairu aside, looking at the closed door, and quickly called his wife for help.

"Wife, Wu Cuiling, go in quickly and make sure not to hurt the baby in Xiuzhi's belly, otherwise Zhu will go crazy when he comes back. Go in quickly and make a check."

"Mother of the child, please go and take care of him too," the third uncle also called his wife over.

"I'm fine, just scared." Li Xiuzhi, who was standing in the house, opened the door when she saw Xu Damao and others coming to help, and let Wu Cuiling and the three aunts in.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, leave the rest to us," said Xu Damao, facing Qin Huairu who was sitting on the ground.

Qin Huairu also came back to her senses at this time and looked at Xu Damao, pointing at him and asked, "What's your business? Why are you always the first to rush to the front when something happens in the He family? I'm here to look for He Yuzhu."

"Qin Huairu, Zhuzi has gone to work. Why don't you wait until he gets off work to talk about anything? You come to his house now because his wife is alone at home and easy to bully. Zhuzi and I are good brothers, and I can't stand you bullying others," Xu Damao stared at Qin Huairu in front of him with a vicious expression.

"Xiuzhi is a well-known good person in this courtyard. It's unacceptable for you to bully her."

"That's right, if you dare to bully someone like Xiuzhi, we won't agree."

"Yes, Xiuzhi is pregnant now, how can you bully her?" The people watching in the courtyard immediately spoke up. Li Xiuzhi had unknowingly accumulated a lot of good relationships in this courtyard.

"Why were you able to marry a good man who loves you so much and is now pregnant, but why did my husband die, my son also died, and now even my mother-in-law is missing?"

"Why, why do you live so happily?" Qin Huairu burst into tears when she saw everyone in the courtyard helping Li Xiuzhi.

"What are you talking about? You are unhappy, so you come to cause trouble for others. You Jia family are more shameless than each other," Xu Damao was amused by Qin Huairu's words.

"I just want to ask He Yuzhu where my mother-in-law is. Please tell me." Qin Huairu is no longer an innocent person. She asked with tears and snot.

"Your mother-in-law is missing. How did He Yuzhu know that? Aren't you just trying to make trouble?" The third uncle looked at Qin Huairu in front of him speechlessly.

"You dare to bully my sister? When my brother-in-law comes back, I will tell him to beat you up." Li Yue protected her sister behind her with her small body and shouted at Qin Huairu while standing at the door.

"That's right, Qin Huairu, you'd better think about how you're going to explain to He Yuzhu when he comes back. You've had enough of living for daring to bully his wife," Xu Damao reminded her.

When Qin Huairu heard what Xu Damao said, she suddenly came to her senses. If He Yuzhu knew that she bullied his wife while he was not at home, he would have skinned her alive. Thinking of He Yuzhu's ferocious appearance, she shuddered all over.

"You're talking nonsense. I just came to inquire about the situation. I didn't bully his wife. Don't ruin my reputation." Qin Huairu stood up and tried to stop Xu Damao from speaking.

"Qin Huairu, you still have a reputation. Everyone in Siheyuan and even in the entire Nanluoguxiang knows who you are. Are you tired of eating steamed buns? It's good that your family has few people now, so you can afford steamed buns without changing them," Xu Damao looked at her with a smile.

Everyone in the courtyard was also amused by Xu Damao's words.

"I haven't had enough steamed buns yet. Why don't you give me some to try?"

"Can you afford it? This is a meat bun in exchange for a white flour bun, which is very expensive. Why don't you just eat the meat bun?"

"I have some white flour here, can I exchange it for two meat buns?"

Several young guys in the courtyard who had not gone to work suddenly became excited and started teasing Qin Huairu.

"You are too bullying. Do you think it is honorable to bully a widow like me?" Qin Huairu saw that the people in the courtyard were getting more and more unbearable. She was powerless to refute them. After saying a few words, she covered her face and ran back to her home.

Seeing this, everyone pointed at the Jia family, chatted for a few words and then dispersed.

He Yuzhu's home,

Wu Cuiling and the three aunts helped Li Xiuzhi sit on the sofa, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the footsteps fading away outside.

"Yesterday Zhuzi said that I was soft-hearted and showed sympathy without reason, but today I was scared by the Jia family. It seems that some people are really not worthy of sympathy," Li Xiuzhi suddenly sighed.

The third aunt had lived in this courtyard for such a long time and was very familiar with every household. She looked at Li Xiuzhi in front of her and advised,

"It's right to be kind, but you have to be kind to the right people. You should listen to Zhuzi, the Jia family does not deserve sympathy."
