Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Qin Huairu was very angry when she heard what Bai Xiuying said. She felt that this woman was also sick. Qin Huairu sneered. She didn't want to give Bai Xiuying any face. She grinned and said, "No, no, no, Aunt Yi, please don't say any more. Our Zhuzi often told me that he only has a father living in Baoding now. Besides him, there are no other elders. Don't pretend to be our elders anymore."

Bai Xiuying's fair face was gloomy and scary. She didn't expect that a girl who married from the countryside would be so disrespectful to her mother. What else did Bai Xiuying want to say? Qin Huairu patted the dirt on her buttocks, grinned, and picked up the basket beside her. She still had to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables! She didn't want to meddle in these trivial matters. These people were really sick.

Jia Zhang yelled and cursed at the top of her voice, and wanted to chase Qin Huairu out for another fight. Bai Xiuying quickly stopped Jia Zhang, and said to her with a sigh, "Sister-in-law, Qin Huairu is young and strong. If you fight with Qin Huairu, you will always be the one who suffers."

Jia Zhang's face turned extremely dark, and she said very unhappily, "Dongxu's master's wife, am I just going to accept this beating? If I don't take revenge, I will never be happy in my heart." Jia Zhang felt very aggrieved. After so many years of roaming around in the courtyard, this was the first time she was beaten so badly by a young man.

Bai Xiuying rolled her eyes and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. When Lao Yi and the others come back tonight, we can hold a general meeting to criticize him." As the saying goes, "A red plum becomes red, and a black plum becomes black." How good can the character and morality of a person who can sleep in the same bed with Yi Zhonghai be? Bai Xiuying only has a good reputation to the outside world, but in private, she is as cruel as Jia Zhangshi.

As a daughter-in-law, she naturally knew all of Yi Zhonghai's decisions. She couldn't be so stupid as to ruin her husband's plan. After all, if Yi Zhonghai could succeed in his plan, it would be very beneficial to Bai Xiuying. In fact, she had the same idea as the old lady, and she also thought that it was the right thing to let Sha Zhu take care of her in her old age. After all, Sha Zhu was very good, especially his cooking skills, which were really the best in the city.

In comparison, Jia Dongxu is not even close to the same level. He is in his 20s, but he still cannot make up his mind when encountering problems, and he asks his master to solve them. Bai Xiuying thinks that if he is left to live in retirement, he will definitely not be able to live comfortably in the second half of his life. Sha Zhu is better. She thought that after He Daqing ran away, Sha Zhu would never recover. Unexpectedly, Sha Zhu is living a better and better life, which makes Bai Xiuying very satisfied.

As the most hidden character, Bai Xiuying has her own understanding. In her opinion, it is best to adopt a child. Even if one is not filial, wouldn't it be unfilial to adopt two or three? But in her family, her family status is very low. If her husband is unwilling to adopt, it is useless for her to adopt!

Walking on the street, Qin Huairu felt someone calling her from behind. Ma Xiaoya ran out of breath, and she finally caught up with Qin Huairu. The two lived in the same courtyard, so Qin Huairu naturally knew Ma Xiaoya. Smoothing the hair by her ears, Qin Huairu smiled and said, "Xiaoya, what are you doing?"

Ma Xiaoya smiled and said, "Are you going out to buy vegetables? I want to go out to buy vegetables too. We can be companions. Come on, I'll take you to the nearest vegetable market." Qin Huairu nodded. He could feel Ma Xiaoya's kindness. The two walked on the road, chatting as they walked. Ma Xiaoya gave Qin Huairu a thumbs up and said, "Huairu, you were really awesome this afternoon. I didn't expect that the local tyrant in our yard would be dealt with by you."

Qin Huairu smiled awkwardly, and said with a grin, "Actually, I had no choice. You see, that old thing Jia Zhang actually wanted to hit me. He and I are just ordinary neighbors. Why did he hit me?" Ma Xiaoya nodded and said with a smile, "I know what you mean. In fact, I tell you in secret, there are a lot of people in our courtyard who want to deal with him, but you are the first one who dares to hit her openly."

Qin Huairu was stunned. She asked Ma Xiaoya curiously, "Ah, why is that? The Jia family only has one Jia Dongxu. Are you still afraid of him?" Ma Xiaoya shook her head in contempt and said with disdain, "Jia Dongxu, that coward, my husband can give him a good beating. But the Jia family has a backer, as you can see, it's Yi Zhonghai."

Qin Huairu nodded. She could see this point. When mentioning Yi Zhonghai, Ma Xiaoya's face was full of gloom. She sighed and said, "The old woman of the Jia family, no one in the courtyard is not annoyed by her. Take me for example, my husband bought me a roast duck some time ago out of pity for me, but I didn't expect that Jia Zhang would target him."

Ma Xiaoya sighed and said unhappily, "Huai Ru, do you know? That old guy actually came to our house and snatched the roast duck away. My husband and I ran out to chase him, but he ran to the middle courtyard and ate the roast duck. My husband and I went to ask the old man for justice. Do you know what that old bastard Yi Zhonghai said?"

Qin Huairu looked at Ma Xiaoya with great curiosity. Ma Xiaoya sighed and said, "Yi Zhonghai put his hands on his waist and said with disdain that Jia Zhang was the elder of the courtyard. What's the big deal about eating a roast duck? He also complained that we were making a fuss. You said that this roast duck only cost eight or nine yuan. Is this considered making a fuss?"

Qin Huairu's mouth was also wide open. She looked at Ma Xiaoya and said, "Ah, so this is what happened. They are really shameless. You and your husband just swallow your anger." Ma Xiaoya sighed and said, "My husband talked back to Yi Zhonghai, but I didn't expect that this would stir up a hornet's nest. My man is a level 2 fitter in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, while Yi Zhonghai is a level 7 fitter."

When she said this, tears came out of Ma Xiaoya's eyes. She sighed helplessly and said, "My man has been tortured by Yi Zhonghai for more than a month. I really admire you now. I admire you for being so brave to deal with Jia Zhang."
