After Qin Huairu delivered lunch to Banggeng, she hurried home and picked up a set of clothes from Jia Zhang.

But she looked worried, thinking about the medical bills she still had to pay, but she was penniless now.

She gritted her teeth when she thought of the thief who had cruelly taken away her savings of many years.

The remaining money of Jia Zhang was stolen and no one knows where it is now hidden.

She could only grit her teeth and run to find an aunt.

Although Yi Zhonghai's house was also robbed, she heard from Jia Dongxu that her master's house probably only lost half of its property.

She also guessed that Yi Zhonghai's total net worth was definitely more than three thousand.

"Auntie, my mother-in-law is in the hospital and I have to hurry to pay the medical bills.

My money was stolen and I am penniless now. Can you lend me ten dollars first?"

The aunt had a complicated expression. She really didn't want to lend it, but thinking of Yi Zhonghai's attitude, even if she didn't lend it now, she probably wouldn't be able to refuse when Old Yi came back in the evening.

So she took out five dollars and said awkwardly, "Huai Ru, you also know the recent situation of our family.

I don't have much money on me, so you can use these five dollars for emergencies first, and we'll talk about it after your uncle and Dongxu come back."

Qin Huairu took the money, thanked the old lady profusely and left. Her eagerness to leave moved the old lady greatly.

She suddenly understood why Yi Zhonghai chose Jia Dongxu as his elderly care provider. It could be said that Qin Huairu was at least half of the reason.

Everyone in the courtyard saw how harshly Jia Zhang criticized Qin Huairu, but Qin Huairu never complained.

Take care of the elderly and children at home, and make them comfortable and plump.

If the Jia family really provides for the Yi family's retirement in the future, both of them can also be taken care of by Qin Huairu.

After Qin Huairu ran out of the courtyard in a hurry, she returned to her calm expression.

She had a limited vision and was afraid of offending her evil mother-in-law. Her husband was a man without his own opinion and she was worried about being driven back to the countryside.

So she behaves submissively, but that is just her way of survival.

Her feelings towards her children and Jia Dongxu were genuine, but her feelings towards Jia Zhang were mostly acting.

Qin Huairu sighed. According to her understanding, Jia Zhang was also bullied by her mother-in-law when she was young, and later she became a mother-in-law.

I don’t know when Qin Huairu will be able to become a mother-in-law and take charge of the family.

When they arrived at the hospital, Qin Huairu looked anxious again.

When she found Jia Zhang in an empty corner, she wiped the sweat off her face, showed a concerned look, and asked, "Mom, are you okay?"

Jia Zhang had a pungent odor, so in order not to affect other people, the doctor sent her to a poorly ventilated corner to rest and change her clothes before admitting her to the hospital.

Of course, this is also the case when Jia Zhang's condition is not urgent. If Jia Zhang is really dying, the hospital still has hospital gowns.

But Jia Zhang didn't appreciate it. When she saw Qin Huairu, she yelled:

"You conscienceless bastard, why did you come only now?

My clothes are all wet, do you want me to freeze to death?"

A trace of doubt flashed through Qin Huairu's mind, 'Didn't you say that he needed to be hospitalized?

I thought he was seriously ill, but he looks energetic and doesn't look sick at all.'

She suppressed her thoughts, acted pitifully, and explained:

"I was on my way to deliver food to Bang Geng, that's why I was late."

Jia Zhang was just venting her anger out of habit. She had been suffering a lot in the past few days.

Even though I mustered up the courage to fight back today, I didn't gain any advantage and was even knocked unconscious.

She glared at Qin Huairu and scolded, "Help me to the bathroom to change clothes."

After changing her clothes, Jia Zhang asked Qin Huairu to help her with the hospitalization procedures.

Qin Huairu said aggrievedly: "Mom, I don't have a penny now, and I haven't found your money either."

Jia Zhang curled her lips and stared at Qin Huairu, as if she saw through everything, and scolded impatiently:

"Qin Huairu, you are really scheming now, I don't believe that all your money was stolen.

With your little cleverness, would you keep the money in one place?

You need to know where your private money comes from. It is all saved from our family's mouths. Take it out quickly."

Qin Huairu wanted to cry but had no tears. She really felt that she was a little stupid. Both the old man and Jia Zhang knew the principle that a cunning rabbit has three burrows.

But Qin Huairu was really careless. She didn't expect that her money would be stolen, and she actually put all the money together.

She was always on guard against her family discovering her secret stash of money, so she hid the money in the small kitchen.

After all, family members seldom go into the kitchen, so it can be said that the small partitioned kitchen is her private territory.

Now she is still misunderstood as having three burrows. Isn't it unfair?

This time it was not an act. She bit her lips tightly, tears falling down, and said aggrievedly:

"Mom, I really have no money left, not a cent left."

Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu suspiciously. Although she still didn't quite believe it, she didn't force her.

He then said: "If you don't have money, go borrow some. What's the point of shedding your tears in front of me?"

Qin Huairu replied: "The heads of the courtyard are all at work, so who will lend us money?"

Jia Zhang rolled her eyes and reminded, "Isn't Shazhu also hospitalized in this hospital? Go and borrow some money from him."

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up after hearing this. She was too poor now and had to save some money, otherwise she would feel insecure.

Besides, the New Year is coming soon, so she has to save some money so that she can buy some things and return to Qinjia Village in style.

She only goes back once a year, and if she returns empty-handed, then her boasting will be exposed.

However, she did not dare to agree so readily, and said awkwardly:

"It's not convenient for me to go to him to borrow money. There are so many people in the hospital. It would be bad if others saw me and misunderstood me."

Jia Zhang said with a straight face: "It's just to borrow some money, you just need to keep your distance from him, who dares to say anything?

What's the matter? Qin Huairu, do you want something else?

I'm asking you to borrow money, not throw yourself into my arms, Qin Huairu, you better behave yourself."

Qin Huairu could only agree reluctantly.

She found Sha Zhu's ward under the pretext of being a neighbor visiting a patient.

Sha Zhu was sent here last weekend. He has been treated in the hospital for four or five days and is almost recovered, except that his limbs are still a little weak.

When he saw Qin Huairu at the door, his eyes lit up, and he quickly got up from the bed and said happily:

"Sister Qin, are you here to visit me?

I haven't thanked you yet, thanks to your dog for finding out I was sick in time."

Qin Huairu gave an awkward smile and replied, "Yes, Zhuzi, how is your illness?"

Sha Zhu was very moved, patted his chest and said proudly:

"I'm fine, I'm in good health, the doctor said I can be discharged from the hospital today.

But the old lady is also being discharged from the hospital today, and I am still waiting for her to come with me. An old man will also come to pick her up after get off work."

In fact, the deaf old lady has basically recovered. She was hospitalized for two days because of diarrhea. Now she is almost well and is ready to be discharged from the hospital.

Unexpectedly, the yard was robbed. She suffered an unexpected disaster and was so angry that she vomited blood twice.

But it was just a case of anger and there was nothing serious going on. I recovered after two days of hospitalization.

But the deaf old lady was afraid that her power would decline, so she asked Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu to pick her up from the hospital and go back together.

Let the people in the courtyard see that she is still the ancestor of the courtyard, and the uncle and the fool who has the highest force in the courtyard are still respectful to her.

Yi Zhonghai continued to show respect for the elderly and love for the young, also wanting to enhance his own reputation and consolidate his position as a big boss.

But that Fatty Liu has always been greedy for his uncle's position.

So Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady each got what they wanted and hit it off immediately.

Only Sha Zhu is the one who gets taken advantage of. Sha doesn't even know that in the end he will have to pay and work to send the deaf old lady back.

The conversation between Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu aroused the curiosity of other people in the ward.

They all looked at the two of them with inquiring eyes, and even a fool could tell that there was something fishy with those eyes.

But judging from their address, they weren't a couple, so both of them had already imagined a huge soap opera in their minds.

Qin Huairu couldn't stand those stares, and was also a little annoyed by Sha Zhu's pig-like face.

But he came to borrow money, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "Zhu Zi, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you."

Sha Zhu happily walked out of the ward and followed Qin Huairu to the corner of the corridor.

His eyes were fixed on Qin Huairu's swaying back. The twisting of her round and perky figure was a scene in his countless dreams.

But what puzzled him was that despite such sensory stimulation, he didn't react at all.

During the few days in the hospital, Sha Zhu felt calm when he saw those young nurses.

He was still feeling smug in his heart, lamenting that these vulgar women were no match for Sister Qin, but now the object of his fantasy was right in front of him, and he didn't even react.

Sha Zhu was puzzled, "Am I so virtuous that I know it's wrong to covet Sister Qin?"

Qin Huairu stopped and Sha Zhu almost bumped into her.

After he came to his senses, his face turned red.

Qin Huairu frowned, then said with a pitiful look:

"Zhu Zi, you should have heard about it, right?

My house and my uncle's house were both robbed, and now your sister Qin is penniless.

My mother-in-law is waiting to pay for hospitalization, can you lend her some money first?"

When Sha Zhu saw Qin Huairu looked like she was about to cry, he felt distressed and quickly started searching through her clothes.

But Sha Zhu only took out fifty cents and said awkwardly:

"Sister Qin, I was sent to the hospital on the day I fell ill.

I only had five dollars on me at the time, and I only had fifty cents left after spending it. Do you think I should use it first?"

Sha Zhu was a worker, so he didn't have to pay for medical treatment. But no one brought him food, so he had to buy it with tickets.

I didn't bring enough food coupons, and I had to exchange them with other patients at a high price, so I only had fifty cents left out of five dollars.

Qin Huairu looked a little disappointed, squeezed out two tears, took two steps closer to Sha Zhu, and said worriedly:

“Fifty cents is not enough, my mother-in-law is still waiting to be admitted to the hospital.

If my mother-in-law gets angry, she might send me back to the countryside."

Sha Zhu looked at Sister Qin who was so close to him, smelled a special feminine scent, and said sympathetically:

"How could Jia Zhang be like this? Sister Qin, you are so hardworking. The Jia family must have accumulated great merit to marry a daughter-in-law like you."

Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and continued, "Sister Qin, wait a moment. I'll go get discharged first, and then go back to get the money."

Qin Huairu burst into laughter and said gratefully, "Zhu Zi, you are considerate of Sister Qin.

Give me fifty cents first, and I will ask the doctor to arrange for my mother-in-law to be hospitalized first, otherwise I will be scolded again.

When you bring the money back later, give it to me quietly and consider it as a personal loan from Sister Qin. Otherwise, Dongxu and my mother-in-law will scold me."

Sha Zhu smiled and handed the only fifty cents he had to Qin Huairu, assuring her, "Don't worry, Sister Qin. This is our secret."

After saying that, he hurried to get discharged from the hospital.

Qin Huairu looked at Sha Zhu's hurried back and felt a little guilty, but it disappeared in an instant.
