Siheyuan: The Cellar

Old Mrs. Long couldn't help but laugh when she saw Yi Zhonghai and Gao Huilan with sad faces.

But he still tried to suppress his smile and said, "Zhonghai! Today is New Year's Eve. What a pity! We are not capable enough to entertain you properly.

But on this New Year's Day, let's just be nice and have a good meal! Don't think about those unnecessary things.

The Chen family's behavior is no different from that of the landlord families of the old times. If you ask me, I will be taken to the target shooting sooner or later."

Yi Zhonghai's already ugly expression became even uglier after hearing what the deaf old lady said.

I couldn't help but complain in my heart: Is it because of the smell of Chen Guoliang's cooking? The old man changes his face so quickly.

What was supposed to be a joyful New Year's Eve dinner ended up being a mess under the command of the deaf old lady.

Thanks to the efforts of Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu, a table full of talents gathered. In the end, there were not many left.

After dinner, Sha Zhu instinctively went to pack up his things.

Gao Huilan stood up and went to help.

Although she and Qin Huairu are both pregnant, she is still young after all, and her belly is not as big as Qin Huairu's flammable and explosive belly. She can still do some general work.

As for the others?

The deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, not moving an inch.

Qin Huairu wanted to leave, but she was too full to walk. She could only sit at the table and look awkwardly at Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady who were silent.

"Well, old lady, I'm going to go back first! Thank you for today!"

After a while, Qin Huairu hurriedly opened his mouth to say goodbye.

She really couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere at the table.

"Huai Ru! Don't worry. I still have something to tell you and Zhong Hai."

Hearing this, Qin Huairu could only temporarily suppress her doubts and continued to look at Yi Zhonghai awkwardly.

"Today, on New Year's Eve, I wasn't going to talk about this. But Zhong Hai! I see that you seem very dissatisfied with our meal!"

Yi Zhonghai wanted to say that it was hard for him to be satisfied, but he also knew that he couldn't say that.

He was about to explain, but the deaf old lady didn't give him the chance.

"But it's okay. Since you are not satisfied with the food cooked by our Zhuzi, let's just treat today's meal as a get-together for the three of us!

I won't talk about Zhuzi's chef fee. The cost of the ingredients for tonight's meal totaled 6000 yuan. Let's divide it among the three families. Our family will pay the largest share, 6000 yuan. Zhonghai, your family and Huairu's family will pay a total of yuan. Is that okay with you?"

Yi Zhonghai had just listened to the deaf old lady talking for a long time and thought that she would be able to come up with something good!

After talking for so long, he actually asked me to pay for it.

This is simply too much.

On New Year's Eve, you gave me a whole carrot to hold a meeting and helped me to be the "rabbit" to feed. But for just a few pieces of carrot tofu, you told me that the materials cost more than 10,000 yuan, and that's not counting the labor cost.

You're burning newspapers on Qingming Festival - you're fooling ghosts!

Qin Huairu, who was sitting on the other side, had an even more complicated psychological activity.

She was already very unhappy when Sha Zhu gave her this on New Year's Eve. But after she finished eating, he even asked for money.

Listen, listen, how funny this is! Sha Zhu gave her tofu and cabbage on New Year's Eve, and it would be fine if he didn't compensate her a little. But he actually charged her for the meal.

For a moment, Qin Huairu's face turned ugly.

Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady exchanged glances for a long time, but Yi Zhonghai finally gave in.

He stood up, threw 4000 yuan on the table, then yelled at Gao Huilan and went home.

I spent my own money, why should I have to wash the dishes?

After Yi Zhonghai gave the money reluctantly, Qin Huairu felt even more embarrassed.

Before coming, she didn't know that she had to pay!

She only knew that the New Year's Eve dinner would be eaten at Sha Zhu's house, so instead of taking any money, she also took a bowl.

In this situation, it’s not a good idea to take out the bowl to pay for it!

At this time, Shazhu also finished washing the dishes and came out.

"Eh? Sister Qin, old lady. What's wrong with you? Why are you just standing there without saying anything?"

The deaf old lady was quite helpless that Sha Zhu still called her old lady.

After all, this kid Shazhu, you say he is stupid, but he can say all kinds of nonsense at night.

He is not stupid, right? He calls his wife "old lady".

The deaf old lady tried to correct him several times at the beginning, but when she found it was useless, she just let it go.

Over time, the deaf old lady became immune to calling him Shazhu.

"Pillar!"

Qin Huairu, who was a little at a loss in the face of the aggressive deaf old lady, immediately shouted out the moment she heard Sha Zhu's voice.

That voice, how can it be so full of twists and turns, so tender and affectionate.

Then tears started to flow out like crazy.

This made Sha Zhu very sad.

He hurried forward and hugged Qin Huairu, comforting her in a soft voice.

The deaf old lady looked at this scene and sighed heavily.

A long way to go!

Regardless of the couple in front of her, the deaf old lady stood up and prepared to go back to her backyard to sleep.

This gathering of elites that I planned myself succeeded in disgusting Yi Zhonghai.

But it doesn't seem to have much effect on Qin Huairu.

Besides, she herself doesn't really like eating.

If I go back to the backyard now, maybe I can get some food at Liu Li's house.

After all, the fragrance just now had spread to the central courtyard.

I hope everything is still in time!

When she walked to the door, she saw Yu Shui still sitting on the small bench in a daze, and the deaf old lady was immediately furious.

It would be fine if Qin Huairu kept pestering Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu was also responsible for the food and lodging of such a little girl.

What's the big deal?

Are these two people eating Sha Zhu’s money?

That's all your own money!

Then, the deaf old lady started scolding He Yushui directly.

It feels like Jia Zhang scolding a money-losing commodity.

At this time, Sha Zhu's heart and eyes were filled with only his sister Qin. How could he bear to see his own sister being scolded by his wife!

The deaf old lady saw that she had been scolding for a long time, but not only Sha Zhu did not react at all, but even He Yushui herself did not react at all.

The deaf old lady suddenly felt bored.

Then, he continued walking towards the backyard with his small cane.

After the deaf old lady left, He Yushui glanced at Sha Zhu, who was holding Qin Huairu and smiling foolishly at the dining table.

Also walked out slowly.

Then he returned to his little room.

After closing the door, Yu Shui buried her head in the quilt, unable to hold back her emotions any longer. Tears could not stop flowing.

She covered her mouth tightly with her hands to prevent herself from crying out loud.

On the other hand, after the deaf old lady returned to the backyard, she looked at Chen Guoliang who was already cleaning the table, and couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

If I had known, I wouldn't have wasted time with Yi Zhonghai. Otherwise, maybe I could have had something good to eat.
