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

The next morning, when it was just dawn, Qin Jingru was driven to the city by her parents.

She looked reluctant, but she could not get the upper hand, and the gossip in the village made her very annoyed.

There was one thing her parents said that was right, that was her marriage was a big deal, and after Xu Damao made such a fuss, those with better conditions would definitely look down on her.

Instead of marrying those ugly guys from the countryside, it’s better to marry Xu Damao.

At least, Xu Damao is a city dweller and has a decent job.

Qin Jingru accepted her fate and rushed all the way to the courtyard. As soon as she stepped through the gate, she saw the third uncle watering the flowers. Without even saying hello, Qin Jingru went straight to the backyard.

Yan Bugui pushed his nose bridge and closed his eyes to confirm that the person who just walked past was indeed Qin Jingru.

Could it be that he is here to look for Xu Damao again?

backyard.

Xu Damao was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard a hurried knock on the door. He frowned and spoke impatiently:

"Who is it?"

"Xu Damao, open the door for me quickly."

"It's early in the morning, are you sick?!"

"Hurry up and open the door. Didn't you say you were going to get the certificate? Hurry up and don't delay me."

Qin Jingru shouted loudly, without paying any attention to her image.

"You're so annoying."

Seeing that she didn't open the door, Qin Jingru kept knocking on it. She couldn't continue to rest at all, so she could only get up and open the door impatiently.

Seeing the door open, Qin Jingru walked into the room without any hesitation, sat on the stool openly, and looked straight at Xu Damao:

"I'm hungry, get me something to eat."

"???"

Xu Damao couldn't believe his ears. Seeing that Qin Jingru was no longer as docile as before, his brows furrowed into a shape of a "川" character:

"Qin Jingru, are you upset? What's your attitude towards me? You haven't eaten, and I haven't eaten either."

"If you want to be nicer, that's fine. I'll give you 50 yuan as a gift, and I promise to take good care of you after we get the marriage certificate. I'll never miss three meals a day."

"Oh, you're dreaming so early in the morning? I've already made arrangements with your parents. There won't be any gifts or weddings. We can just get a simple marriage certificate and everything will be ready."

Xu Damao simply washed his face with clean water, found his household registration book, and took Qin Jingru out.

When passing the front yard, he met the third uncle again. Seeing the two people leaving one after the other, a flash of understanding flashed through the third uncle's mind. Sure enough, they were coming for Xu Damao.

Coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Qin Jingru spread out her hands:

"We are a family from now on. I'm very hungry now. Give me the money and I'll go buy something to eat."

Xu Damao took out five yuan and threw it to Qin Jingru:

"After buying groceries, remember to bring me a bottle of wine."

After saying that, he turned around and left, with no intention of accompanying Qin Jingru to the vegetable market.

Watching Xu Damao walk away turning left, Qin Jingru and I picked up the five yuan in our hands, snorted coldly, and went straight to buy groceries.

Once the money is in her hands, she can spend it however she wants.

Xu Damao returned to the courtyard and happened to run into Sha Zhu who was about to go out. He immediately took out his marriage certificate and waved it in front of Sha Zhu:

"Silly Zhu, see? I'm getting married again. There's no way I'll end up alone."

"Oh."

"No, silly, what do you mean?

I tell you, I’m married!”

Seeing that Sha Zhu was not as angry as he had imagined, Xu Damao thought that Sha Zhu did not hear clearly and continued to speak word by word.

"Just get married if you want. I have a son. Do you have one?"

Looking at Xu Damao's face which froze for a moment, Sha Zhu's face was full of sarcasm. If it weren't for the child in his arms, he really wanted to beat Xu Damao up for being such a jerk.

For a time, the news of Xu Damao's remarriage spread throughout the courtyard.

"It really is Qin Jingru. This little girl's eyesight is really not good."

"One is a born bad guy, the other likes to destroy other people's families. It's better to lock them together."

"Looking at Qin Jingru's appearance, the courtyard might become lively again in the future."

Someone even asked Qin Huairu:

"Huai Ru, aren't they going to have a wedding banquet?"

"It seems that we shouldn't do it." After giving a simple explanation, Qin Huairu hurried back to the house.

"He's not even going to hold a banquet. Is Xu Damao sincere?"

Everyone in the yard was gossiping. Qin Jingru came back with vegetables. This time she was not as distant as before. She greeted everyone she should.

I will be living in this yard for a long time in the future, so I must build good relationships with my neighbors.

"Your wine, I'm going to go cook first."

Qin Jingru put the wine on the table and went to cook, a dish of stir-fried pork with peppers, an eggplant with garlic, and a plate of scrambled eggs.

Xu Damao was eating peanuts and drinking a little wine. When he saw the fried pork with peppers served by Qin Jingru, his eyes widened:

"You fried a whole plate of meat?!"

"What? Didn't you see there's chili in it?"

Qin Jingru picked up the white flour bun next to her and started eating. Xu Damao opened his mouth in surprise again:

"White flour buns? How can you be so extravagant for a meal?"

"Xu Damao, stop talking nonsense. There's no betrothal gift, no wedding, and you can't let me have something good to eat?

If you have the guts, don’t eat it.”

Qin Jingru said as she quickly picked up the meat and ate it.

Xu Damao...

After eating and drinking, Qin Jingru cleaned up the dishes and just lay down on the bed to rest when Xu Damao's voice rang out:

"Qin Jingru, no matter what happened before, now that we have obtained the marriage certificate, we are husband and wife.

Money should be saved when it is necessary.

Also, it would be best to completely cut off ties with relatives in my hometown. I don’t want to help the poor.

From now on, we will live together as a couple. With the money, we can eat delicious food, right?"

"Do I need to tell you this?!"

Qin Jingru said nonchalantly that after getting married, things would definitely not be the same as before.

Although she had to marry Xu Damao.

But the certificate has already been obtained, and she must live her own life in the future. As for helping others, she is not a Bodhisattva and cannot care so much.

Seeing that Qin Jingru understood the situation, Xu Damao nodded with satisfaction. If Qin Jingru really couldn't figure it out, he would have a headache in the future.

He was married to Lou Xiao'e before, and Lou Xiao'e's family was rich and could help them from time to time. Now that he is married to Qin Jingru, he doesn't ask for anyone to help them, as long as they don't suck his blood.

After Qin Jingru got married, she stayed in the courtyard honestly. Every day she just went out to buy groceries, cook, and clean the house. She lived a very comfortable life.

Because they lived in the same courtyard, he often ran into Qin Huairu, but Qin Jingru was no longer as friendly and enthusiastic as before when she greeted him.

Qin Huairu's current situation is so miserable that every time she sees Qin Huairu, she always has a feeling of gloating and superiority.
