Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

Chapter 61 The Dilemma of the Deaf Old Lady

As soon as the deaf old lady finished speaking, the crowd below started to discuss. In fact, everyone could see the old lady's predicament, but her past behavior made everyone stay away. After all, no one wanted to have another ancestor.

However, there are also many people who are eyeing the old lady's property and are waiting to divide it up after she dies.

But now the old lady has put the problem on the table and is looking for someone to take care of her. After all, she is a five-guarantee household supported by the state, and the people in the yard can't really watch her starve to death.

"Old lady, it's not that serious. We all hope that you can live well," the third uncle Yan Fugui stood up to comfort the deaf old lady.

He Yuzhu was watching the deaf old lady's performance from below and thought to himself, "Old lady, you didn't expect that you would end up like this. When my sister came to your door to ask for a stutter, you pretended that you didn't have one, and you even dared to plot against me. You asked for it all."

"Our yard is a civilized courtyard. How can we let the old lady starve? Old lady, no matter which family you give the food to, they will cook something for you," said He Yuzhu.

"Yes, old lady, take out the grain receipts from home and everyone will leave a portion for you when they cook. We can even let you go hungry as long as you don't want to eat meat every day," Xu Damao also said.

Seeing He Yuzhu and Xu Damao singing the same tune, the deaf old lady quickly said, "After all, I am old, old lady. If I want to eat something softer, I can exchange it with the people in the yard for food."

"What's the point of eating something softer? Who can afford to eat white flour buns every day?" said the man.

But some people in the yard also looked at He Yuzhu, because he had the best conditions in the yard. The deaf old lady also looked at He Yuzhu eagerly. What she hoped most was that He Yuzhu would take care of her in her old age.

When He Yuzhu saw everyone looking at him, he said, "My family has no shortage of ancestors, so this is not my turn."

When she saw He Yuzhu refused, the deaf old lady suddenly became depressed and started to curse He Yuzhu in her heart.

"Why don't I do it? Banggeng is not at home, and now it's just my two daughters."

"What about me? No one takes care of me," Jia Zhang shouted in the detention center.

"If you just let me look after the child, I'll cook for you and try to make softer food for her," Qin Huairu suddenly said with a calculated look in her mind.

Everyone in the courtyard wanted to take over the deaf old lady's property, but no one wanted to have another ancestor above their heads, so they did not object to this decision.

But the deaf old lady was not happy. She knew Qin Huairu too well. If she took care of herself, she would probably die faster.

"No need, I'd better deal with it on my own," the deaf old lady shook her head in rejection.

When He Yuzhu saw Qin Huairu come forward, he knew that Qin Huairu was concerned about the deaf old lady's house.

It must be for his son, but he knew Banggeng very well, and he would have plenty of opportunities to get the deaf old lady's house in the future.

"I think it would be convenient for Qin Huairu, a woman, to take care of the old lady. Besides, there are two children at home and she cannot take care of them all by herself. She usually has to trouble the third aunt. It's a good thing that the old lady can look after the children and help each other," He Yuzhu analyzed.

Yan Fugui, who had been silent for a long time, originally wanted to let his wife take care of the deaf old lady and see if there was a chance to buy the house. However, seeing Qin Huairu's initiative and He Yuzhu's sudden support, he felt that something was going on, so he stopped the third aunt who wanted to speak and watched the fun.

The people in the courtyard discussed it again, but they wanted to get benefits but also wanted to fool people and not serve, and they were afraid of gossip. Besides, it was a matter after the old lady passed away, and it was uncertain what would happen by then, so they agreed to let Qin Huairu take care of her.

Afterwards, everyone saw that there was nothing to worry about, so they dispersed and went back to their rooms in such a cold weather.

Qin Huairu got the benefit and appeared to be filial by sending the deaf old lady back to her house. She also fixed the stove for her and then went back to her own home, but no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.

Woke up early this day,

The matchmaker, Aunt Zhang, came to the He family in the middle courtyard. He Yuzhu and his sister were having breakfast: "Aunt Zhang, you came quite early. Have you eaten? Let's eat together," she said and asked Yushui to get the bowl and chopsticks for Aunt Zhang.

"Zhu Zi, I'm so sorry," Aunt Zhang said politely while swallowing her saliva as she looked at the food on the table.

"You're welcome, let's eat and talk at the same time," He Yuzhu said as he served a bowl of wontons to the three aunts.

"I've already talked to the girl. After thinking it over, she said she agreed to meet you and talk to you first. She has also heard of you. It seems you're quite famous," Aunt Zhang said happily as she took the wontons.

Thinking about the conversation she had with Miss Li at Yandaixie Street yesterday, "Aunt Zhang, who are you introducing to me this time?"

"If there is no suitable candidate, don't introduce me to anyone in the future. I can live alone with my sister," said the girl from the Li family impatiently.

"A girl has to get married when she grows up. How can she stay a maid all her life? What will you do in the future?" Aunt Zhang advised.

"But the people you introduced to me either complained that I was from another place and didn't have enough food, or they wanted me to give up my sister and send her to an orphanage. How could I agree to this?"

"After all, I myself have been a refugee and lived alone. I don't know what would have happened to me if Aunt Wang hadn't taken me in."

"So I don't want my sister to live this kind of life in the future. She has no other relatives anymore," said the girl, hugging a little girl of seven or eight years old.

"The person I'm introducing to you this time is definitely the right candidate. You've heard of He Yuzhu, the chef of Nanluoguxiang," Aunt Zhang asked quickly.

"I heard about this person from the comrades on the street. They said he is a very good cook and is very famous in the area," the girl said after thinking for a while.

Aunt Zhang quickly said, "The one I'm introducing to you is him. Many girls in Nanluoguxiang have been eyeing him."

"I heard that he is over 30 and still hasn't started a family. Could he be a babysitter or has some hidden illness?" the girl said doubtfully.

"That's not the case. He Yuzhu has also suffered a lot since childhood. His father ran away with a widow when he was a teenager."

"He struggled to survive with his sister, and later he learned cooking skills and his life gradually became better,"

"In order to raise his younger sister, he didn't find a wife for fear that his sister would suffer. Now that his sister is getting married, he is taking care of his own affairs," Aunt Zhang explained.

The girl nodded and said, "Then his character is not bad."

"His conditions are good. If I wasn't taking care of you, I wouldn't have told you. He lives at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. He has three main rooms in the middle courtyard and one east wing room. The house is newly renovated and has two floors."

"And he became the canteen director some time ago. He's a level six chef and earns more than 100 yuan a month. Besides, he's only 30 years old this year, in the prime of life. How can you not be satisfied with such a person?" Aunt Zhang introduced.

"I don't care how good his conditions are, as long as he can help me take care of my sister and has decent character, I'll be willing," the girl said stubbornly.

"My silly girl, you can't just think about your sister and let yourself down. I'm sure I'll find someone suitable for you. You can go and see him someday."

"And he knows you have a younger sister to take care of, and he doesn't mind raising her alone. He knows how hard it is and is willing to raise her with you," Aunt Zhang said to her.

"Then let's meet the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow is the weekend, let's go to Beihai Park to meet." The girl was moved after hearing He Yuzhu's conditions. After all, she couldn't be picky anymore. If she didn't find a suitable man to marry, her family would not be able to survive.

"Okay, I'll get up early tomorrow and tell him to take a newspaper and I'll ask him to take a book of poetry by a great man," Aunt Zhang said quickly when she saw that she agreed.
