Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Jia Zhang nodded with a smile and said, "Yesterday's snow collapsed a hole in our roof. Since you two are bricklayers, can you take this job?" Qin Dagou and the others nodded with a smile. After all, they had done this kind of work in the countryside. If they did this kind of work in the city, the wages would definitely be higher.

Qin Dagou showed an honest smile on his face and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, auntie. We two brothers will arrange this job for you clearly." Qin Ergou also nodded like his eldest brother. After all, the two brothers came here early this morning and met such a host.

The two of them happily followed Jia Zhang back to the courtyard. Yang Ruihua looked at the two young men brought back by Jia Zhang with a smile, nodded and said, "These two young men are the bricklayers. You are very nimble, old sister-in-law." Yang Ruihua felt that Jia Zhang was a slow person, and she didn't expect that she had found the bricklayers in the afternoon.

Jia Zhang patted her chest with a smile and said proudly, "That's right. I, Jia Zhang, am very efficient at doing things. Okay, okay, I won't talk to you any more. I have to go and fix the roof." She then said to the brothers Qin Dagou and Qin Ergou, "Come quickly, you two brothers. Our house is in the central courtyard."

As the three of them stepped into the middle courtyard, Qin Huairu, who came out to get some water, saw Qin Dagou and Qin Ergou. She walked over with a smile and said, "Brother Dagou and Brother Ergou, how did you two get here? Come on, come home and warm up. I heard that you two went out of town to work when I got married a while ago, and I didn't invite you two. I still feel bad about it."

Qin Ergou stuttered a little. He and Qin Huairu were cousins ​​in Qinjia Village. Although Qinjia Village was a small village, the villagers in Qinjia Village were quite united. Especially when Qin Huairu was young, she often played behind the two brothers and received a lot of help from them. Qin Ergou nodded and said, "I didn't expect that you would marry into the city, girl. It's really great."

Qin Dagou smiled awkwardly and said, "We two brothers were invited by this old aunt to work at their house." Jia Zhang was very unhappy. She didn't expect that the two people she randomly called on the street turned out to be the cousins ​​of Qin Huairu, the bitch. Jia Zhang, who originally resented Qin Huairu, felt even worse.

She didn't want to use these two brothers, but after thinking about it, she felt that this was a good opportunity. When these two brothers repaired the roof of their house, she could find faults in them and make them work in vain. At this moment, Jia Zhang felt that she was really too smart. The phrase "Zhuge Liang in the next life" should be changed to "Zhang Ge Liang in the next life". She simply didn't disturb the three brothers and sisters from reminiscing about the past, and just laughed aside.

Qin Huairu had been married into this courtyard for some time. She pulled Qin Dagou and Qin Ergou aside and said with a heavy face, "Brothers, this old woman is a famous shrew in our courtyard. I advise you two not to do their work. This old woman will definitely find fault with her in the future, and your work will be in vain. We brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for a long time. My man will be back soon. Let's have a good chat and a meal as a family. What do you think?"

Treating your cousin like this is not allowed in this era. The reason is very realistic, that is, the supplies in this era are quite scarce. Supply exceeds demand. In this era, you have to bring your own food when you visit someone else's house. It can be said that this is a feature of this era. But Qin Huairu knows how powerful her man is. If she tells others about the things he brings to her house every day, no one dares to believe it. She also knows that her man is very hospitable to people from her mother's family, so this is how it should be.

Qin Dagou said in surprise, "You brought us two to your house for dinner, your husband must be unhappy. We two brothers didn't take any food, this is not good. You just married into the city, you can't let us two brothers create a rift between you and your husband." Qin Ergou nodded vigorously on the side. As a brother, he certainly couldn't take advantage of his brother-in-law.

Qin Huairu said with a smile, "Brother Dagou and Brother Ergou, what are you two talking about? My husband is a chef in the Red Star Steel Mill. I'm telling you two in secret, our family is not as short of food as you imagine. Moreover, when I got married, I told my husband about you two. My husband said that if you two ever come to the city, he will definitely treat you well."

Qin Ergou nodded with a smile. He was a very honest and sincere person. He felt that his cousin would not lie to him, and he was happy that his cousin had found a good man. Qin Dagou looked at Qin Huairu very carefully, and looked her up and down. Compared with the last time the two brothers saw Qin Huairu, she had gained weight and her face became more rosy. He believed in Qin Huairu's words a little bit, and felt that his sister, who had been very smart since childhood, would not pretend to be rich for the two brothers.

Qin Dagou said with a smile, "Since we are here, let's help the old lady fix the roof. After all, every industry has its own rules, and we brothers can't disgrace this industry." Qin Ergou also nodded in agreement. He felt that what his brother said was right. The host invited them two brothers to come, so they must do a good job.

Qin Huairu knew the nature of his two brothers. After thinking for a while, he said, "Big Dog, you must negotiate the price. I know the character of this old lady. Wait a moment. I will find some old neighbors in the courtyard to come over and act as witnesses for you two brothers."

Qin Dagou frowned and said, "Huai Ru, you are making too much of a fuss. The old lady wouldn't do that, would she?" Qin Huai Ru curled her lips and said, "I will definitely not harm your two brothers. You two haven't seen the old lady's ability to throw a tantrum. Let's be prepared. I'll go call people now. You two wait a moment. You can talk about wages in the yard, and I and a few neighbors will pretend to chat on the side."
