Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Qin Huairu immediately showed a very sad expression and said, "Oh, old lady. Since the implementation of the food coupon system, our family's food has become worse and worse. The fine grains have been eaten up a long time ago. The two of us, plus the rainwater, consume it very quickly. I can only give you a few more steamed buns, but in other words, as long as the food can fill your stomach, it is good food, don't you think?"

Old Lady Long would not believe a word of Qin Huairu's nonsense, but she had no other choice. She looked at Qin Huairu fiercely and said, "You two plus a little girl have a fixed amount of food every month. Where did your fixed amount go? You are not trying to fool an old lady like me, are you? How much money can an old lady like me eat?"

Qin Huairu's pretty face showed a trace of sadness as she said, "Old lady, you have wronged me. You don't know that Zhuzi has a very big appetite. He can eat as much as two people. And you also know that I am from the countryside, so my appetite is not small. Yushui is a very young child. My husband and I love him very much. We feel that since he is so young and his parents have run away, we must take good care of him. All the fine grains in the house are given to Yushui, and my husband and I can only eat some noodles."

Old lady Long looked at He Yushui with a hateful look, and scared He Yushui so much that she almost burst into tears. Liu Chunhua, who was standing by, hugged her tightly, giving her a full sense of security. Liu Chunhua looked very unkind, thinking that this old lady had no shame at all. Bullying a little girl was nothing, but Qin Huairu's method was really great.

Old Lady Long had no choice. Yi Zhonghai and his wife would definitely not be able to come back tonight. If she didn't find a way to eat something, she would definitely get hungry. The pork in the bowl just now was a bit meaty, but it was definitely not enough. So she didn't dislike the steamed buns and picked up one and started to bite it.

But what Mrs. Long didn't expect was that when she bit into the steamed bread, the texture of the steamed bread was very hard. It seemed that all of the few teeth of the old lady fell out. Seeing this scene, Qin Huairu's calm face almost laughed. Liu Chunhua even covered her mouth and turned her head away quickly.

Old lady Long covered her teeth and threw the steamed bread on the table indignantly. Qin Huairu apologized quickly, wiping the sweat from her forehead, and said to Old Lady Long while crying, "Oh my, I didn't expect that you couldn't bite the steamed bread I made this morning. Old lady, you should drink more hot water, or soak the steamed bread in hot water, then you will definitely be able to bite it. That, that rain water, I remember your brother made some hot sauce, quickly take it out to add a dish to the old lady."

Liu Chunhua almost laughed out loud. This Qin Huairu was really interesting. Old Lady Long's face was as dark as it could be. She wanted to make a scene at Qin Huairu's house. But she thought it would be better to tell He Yuzhu about his wife's behavior after he came back in a few days. Let the couple have a conflict, and then find an honest and obedient wife for her grandson after the divorce.

Old Lady Long looked at Qin Huairu with a very vicious look, snorted coldly, and walked away slowly with her cane. When Old Lady Long just went out, Qin Huairu said loudly, "Hey, old lady, please don't be disgusted. We only have steamed buns and a little pork head meat at home. You can eat some at our house."

This made the neighbors who were watching the excitement in the yard stunned. This old lady has a good appetite and is very picky. Old lady Long didn't even eat Qin Huairu's pig head with steamed buns. What else was she thinking about eating? Old lady Long left He Yuzhu's house in a rage, thinking in her heart that when her good grandson came back, she would definitely sue Qin Huairu severely.

In fact, in the heart of Old Lady Long, she felt that He Yuzhu's attitude was no longer as firm as before. He Yuzhu was able to accompany Yi Zhonghai back to his hometown to do business, which was a very important signal. The two sides could build a good relationship. As long as He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai built a good relationship, it would be the best for Old Lady Long.

In He Yuzhu's home, Liu Chunhua gave Qin Huairu a thumbs up and said, "Hey, Huairu, your idea is the best. You don't know how this old lady has been playing tricks on me recently. I dare not bring back any good things. This old thing has a nose like a dog, sometimes even sharper than a dog's. Today I managed to sneak some pork head home, but I didn't expect that I was caught by this old lady before I even got home. If I hadn't had an idea and ran to your house, I would definitely not be able to eat this plate of meat."

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "I'm not that smart. This is the method our Zhuzi taught me. My husband said that this old lady is thicker than the corner of the city wall. As long as you give her a good face, this old lady dares to open a dyeing factory. So in the future you must learn to say no, or you can do it according to my method. Prepare some special food for the old lady."

Liu Chunhua was stunned, and looked at the hard steamed buns in the bamboo basket. She pinched them with her fingers, and they were so firm. Liu Chunhua smiled and asked, "Huairu, how old are these steamed buns?" Qin Huairu smiled and said, "This is what my Zhuzi made specially for that old lady. He deliberately made the steamed buns look like bricks. But it feels almost the same as a steamed bun. Use this to punish the old lady. I believe that the old lady will never dare to come to our house to eat and drink for free in the future."

Liu Chunhua thought about it and decided to think of a way. His house was right next to Old Lady Long. He originally thought she was just an ordinary old lady, but he didn't expect that this ordinary-looking old lady could actually defeat him. He had to think of a way to get rid of this old lady. Otherwise, he would never be able to live in peace in this courtyard.

Qin Huairu smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, when I first met this old lady, I thought she was just an ordinary, very kind old lady. But after some things happened, this old lady is not as kind as we think she is."
