Siheyuan: With a system in place, you don’t need to worry in times of famine

Ever since Xu Damao allowed Qin Jingru to enter his house, Qin Jingru was as happy as a flower every day. Regardless of other people's strange looks, she cleaned the house, did laundry and cooked for Xu Damao, just like an old nanny.

In her heart, she felt that Xu Damao asked her to do such a thing for him, which meant that he had begun to slowly try to accept her, so she must not be discouraged and must keep working hard. Maybe Xu Damao would really be moved and marry her.

"Qin Jingru is so stupid. She works for Xu Damao like a nanny. The key is that Xu Damao doesn't even give her any identity."

"Because those who are blinded by love..."

Zhao Ying and He Yushui sighed. They both felt sorry for Qin Jingru. She was a good girl and had done so much for a man like that. But until now, Xu Damao still hadn't promised Qin Jingru anything. Instead, he was getting more and more adept at using her. They really sympathized with Qin Jingru.

But Qin Jingru is a fool. No matter who persuades her, she won't listen and still insists on her own ideas. Such a person is both annoying and ridiculous. It is impossible to persuade her at all.

The weather is gradually getting cooler, and the sun at noon is very warm. It shines on people's bodies, making them feel warm.

Xu Damao came back angrily. When he saw Qin Jingru approaching, a hint of impatience flashed across his face:

"Qin Jingru, could you please stop hanging around me like a fly every day? Do you know that this is very annoying?!"

Qin Jingru's smiling face froze, she bit her lip, and finally swallowed back what she wanted to say.

He turned around silently and brought over a bowl of bone soup.

This is the big bone she bought at the vegetable market today. She bought it with the money she had secretly saved for a long time.

Qin Jingru's mouth was watering at the strong smell of bone soup, but for Xu Damao, she couldn't bear to drink a sip.

"Da Mao, this is the bone soup I worked so hard to make. Try it. It's delicious."

"Qin Jingru, do you know how to be considerate?

Can't you see I'm in a bad mood?

Could you please stay away from me?!"

“I just want to be nice to you.

You worked so hard outside, and I spent all my money saving to buy you the big bones, but I couldn't bear to drink it."

Qin Jingru muttered softly.

"Want to be nice to me?

Okay, then find a way to make Ye Fei lose face once, and I will forgive you!"

"what?

Ye Fei?

Isn’t this bad?! "

Even though Qin Jingru was not often in the courtyard, she knew that Ye Fei was not someone she could afford to offend.

"how?

Even you are afraid of him?!"

"No, why should I be afraid of him?!"

Qin Jingru argued, and when she saw Xu Damao's fiery eyes, her momentum softened. Thinking of what she had seen and heard in the courtyard during this period, she gritted her teeth and said:

"It's just that Ye Fei is too powerful. He can even get the tea leaves that the emperor has drunk. If I provoke someone as capable and well-connected as him, wouldn't I be asking for trouble?!"

"What did you say?!"

Xu Damao had an angry expression on his face, but when he heard Qin Jingru's words, his eyes lit up instantly.

"I'm telling the truth. Although Ye Fei is usually very steady and low-key, from what I know, he is very capable..."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing that Qin Jingru was about to start a long speech again, Xu Damao interrupted her directly:

"You just said that the tea Ye Fei drank was once only drunk by the emperor?!"

"It seems so."

"What do you mean by 'as if'? If you know, you know. If you don't know, you don't know. Why are you giving me an 'as if'?!"

"Yes, I heard him and Sha Zhu talking about it. It seems to be called tribute tea. In the past, only the emperor could drink it..."

"okay, I get it."

After hearing this, Xu Damao showed a long-lost smile on his face, and then said:

"Qin Jingru, when you are in the hospital, please help me pay attention to Ye Fei and the others' movements. If you have any major discoveries, tell me directly.

By the way, if not only Ye Fei, but also Sha Zhu, He Yushui, and Zhao Ying have any actions, you can also tell me..."

Xu Damao took out two yuan from his pocket and handed it to Qin Jingru:

“You just said you were buying big bones. Was it your pocket money that you have been saving for a long time?

Take this money and buy whatever you want to eat..."

"Da Mao, you are so kind."

Qin Jingru carefully put the two dollars in her pocket, feeling as sweet as if she had eaten honey.

Thank God, she finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.

Xu Damao drank a big bowl of bone soup and went out. He had to find out clearly.

If you think about it carefully, you can indeed find many things that are wrong.

Although he is not a buyer, most of the salary levels are there.

Like an old man, as an eighth-level fitter, he only earns 99 yuan a month. Ye Fei definitely can't surpass him.

However, Ye Fei's life was so comfortable. He had meat to eat every day and bought a lot of things for his home. Not to mention other things, just the air conditioner and washing machine at home, who could afford such conditions?

If he was so rich, how could he still live in a courtyard house? !

Therefore, Ye Fei's money must have come from illegal sources, most likely from corruption or bribery.

This time he must find out the truth, and then prepare evidence to expose Ye Fei!

Time passed quickly, and Qin Jingru could enter Xu Damao's home at any time. She hid in the backyard every day, secretly paying attention to every move in Ye Fei's family.

Every time she smelled the strong aroma of meat, she couldn't help drooling.

Fortunately, Xu Damao was quite generous to her and gave her two dollars not long ago.

Don't underestimate the two dollars, she was reluctant to spend it. She was really greedy, so she went to buy big bones to make soup.

In the blink of an eye, it was early winter.

The first snow of winter fell silently, landed silently, and melted as soon as it hit the ground. After a while, the snowflakes became bigger, and overnight, the whole world turned white.

A clang broke the silence of the courtyard. Zhao Ying no longer cared about the wash basin that had fallen to the ground. She covered her stomach and shouted:

"Silly, I'm about to give birth..."

When Sha Zhu, who was cooking, heard the sound, he hurriedly dropped the spatula in his hand, ran over, picked up Zhao Ying and ran outside, shouting towards the backyard as he ran:

"Ye Fei, Yu Shui, your sister-in-law is about to give birth, you guys should take care of breakfast by yourselves."

The snow in the yard had not been cleared yet. Shazhu ran on it, making a squeaking sound. Although he was very anxious, he was also very steady.

The person in his arms is the most important person in his life, and he must not let her get lost.

After Sha Zhu carried Zhao Ying to the hospital, Ye Fei and He Yushui followed closely behind. Seeing Sha Zhu pacing back and forth in the same place, full of nervousness, the two of them comforted him casually.

"Congratulations everyone, it's a boy..."
