Siheyuan: Forced to exchange rooms with Qin Huairu at the beginning

After receiving the IOU, the second uncle announced the disbanding of the whole hospital meeting, and everyone went home in twos and threes.

"Qiangzi, those two moves of yours are really amazing. When did you practice them?"

Xu Damao asked.

Zhang Zhiqiang knocked Sha Zhu down and Xu Damao was shocked. That was Sha Zhu, known as the God of War in the Siheyuan Courtyard. He was invincible with his pair of iron fists. Xu Damao had been beaten by him since he was a child.

Xu Damao had a deep understanding of that feeling of powerlessness, but everything was different today. Zhang Zhiqiang beat Sha Zhu severely. It was not a match made in heaven, but Zhang Zhiqiang unilaterally pressed Sha Zhu with the hammer.

Xu Damao regretted it so much. Why did he act so cowardly at that time? He should have gone up and hit him a few times to vent his anger.

"My dad taught me. You know my dad was a soldier."

Zhang Zhiqiang said casually and made up a very reasonable excuse for himself.

Xu Damao did not suspect that it was fake. Who was Zhang Zhiqiang's father? He was a martyr. It was said that he had made many contributions on the battlefield and killed people without blinking an eye. It was reasonable for him to have such skills.

"How does Brother Qiangzi Damao treat you normally?"

"That's quite good."

Zhang Zhiqiang looked strange. Could it be that Xu Damao wanted to learn Kung Fu?

"Then Qiangzi, can you teach me those moves, so that I can show Shazhu some of my strengths?"

Xu Damao danced with excitement.

"Well, that's not impossible. Brother Damao, get up an hour earlier tomorrow and we can train together."

Zhang Zhiqiang hesitated for a moment, mainly because he had no reason to refuse. However, based on his understanding of Xu Damao, he was sure that the other party would not be able to persist.

"Okay, Master, just watch and see, haha."

Xu Damao changed his words quickly and called Zhang Zhiqiang, who was several years younger than him, "Master" as soon as he opened his mouth.

After saying that, Xu Damao went back to his home. On the way, he laughed from time to time, as if he had become a martial arts master.

The second uncle’s house in the backyard.

"Lao Liu, I actually knew that the chicken was stolen by Bang Geng."

The second aunt whispered to Liu Haizhong.

"Huh? How did you know?"

Liu Haizhong looked puzzled.

"This afternoon, when I was doing handicrafts, I saw Banggeng and Xiaodang catching Xu Damao's chickens. I didn't know whose chickens they were, so I didn't care."

The second aunt explained to Liu Haizhong.

"Why didn't you say anything at the meeting just now? It would have allowed me to show off my power."

Liu Haizhong said loudly that if he had known earlier that Banggeng was a thief, he would have jumped out long ago to show off how powerful he was as a big shot.

"Old Liu, you are stupid. If we tell this, won't the Jia family hate us?"

"Besides, people say that a child's character can be seen at the age of three. It seems that Banggeng is not a good kid. What if he remembers our family and starts stealing from us?"

The second aunt expressed her concerns. It was obvious that she was also a wise person, much more shrewd than the second uncle. The second uncle's desire to become an official was almost written on his forehead.

"Well, what you said makes sense. Stay away from the Jia family in the future. I think something bad will happen to the Jia family sooner or later."

"Not only that, Jia Zhang is not someone who is easy to get along with either."

"Who said it wasn't? Go to sleep. You have to go to work tomorrow."

…………

In the middle courtyard, the grandpa’s house.

"Old Yi, you better stop being so nice to the Jia family. Look at how arrogant Bang Geng is now. Is it possible for him to provide for us in our old age?"

"Alas, you don't understand. I'm attracted to Qin Huairu. It doesn't matter what the stick is like."

Yi Zhonghai sighed and said.

"Zhu Zi is no good. He is so impulsive at such an old age. I think we should adopt a child."

An old lady had wanted to adopt a child for a long time, but Yi Zhonghai had always refused. The deaf old lady in the backyard had also been asking Sha Zhu to take care of them in their old age.

"Let's talk about it later. We are already this old. It will be too expensive to adopt another one, and we don't know what it will be like."

After Jia Dongxu's death, Yi Zhonghai felt a little regretful, but there was nothing he could do. It was definitely too late to adopt a child now.

"Why don't we try Zhang Zhiqiang? Both his parents are dead, and he is now a fifth-level fitter. Even Zhu can't beat him now."

"We all grew up in the same courtyard, and we know each other well. You can teach him locksmithing skills, and he won't be grateful?"

An old lady asked tentatively. She had had this idea for some time.

Yi Zhonghai was a little moved when he heard this and said, "Will Zhang Zhiqiang agree? He seems to have some misunderstandings about me, an old man. Didn't you see that he has been destroying my stage these few times? I have been thinking about how to get him out."

It's not a misunderstanding at all. It's your fault for calculating against others in the past. Now that you are a level 4 fitter, you can't even support yourself. Don't take revenge on me now that you are capable.

The aunt thought to herself, but couldn't say it out loud.

The lady continued, "Why don't you go and apologize to him? It's nothing. Zhang Zhiqiang is a smart kid. With your guidance, he might be an eighth-level fitter in two years."

"Okay, I'll talk to him some other day."

Yi Zhonghai was moved and decided to talk to Zhang Zhiqiang when he had the chance. After all, it is better to resolve a feud than to create one.

Moreover, it is becoming increasingly difficult to become a fitter above level five. With an eighth-level fitter like me teaching him the skills, Zhang Zhiqiang would not disagree unless he was stupid.

Jia family.

After Banggeng came back, he lay down on the bed. He didn't want to pay any attention to his grandmother at all. She didn't save him even when he was about to be captured.

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi did not suspect anything and thought that Banggeng was just scared today, so they prepared to go to bed early.

Jia Zhang was seen rummaging through boxes and drawers to find Jia Dongxu's portrait, then she lit two candles, hugged the portrait and sat in the middle.

"Mom, why did you take out Dongxu's portrait so late at night? It's so scary."

Qin Huairu asked helplessly.

"Kneel down."

Jia Zhang's loud shout sounded like a sorceress at night.

Qin Huairu was also a little scared and knelt on the ground obediently.

"Tell me, tell me clearly in front of Dongxu whether Banggeng is Dongxu's child or not."

Jia Zhang asked in a low voice, not knowing whether the three children were asleep or not.

"Mom, what are you talking about? Banggeng must be Dongxu's child."

"Then why does Dongxu have straight hair, while Banggeng and Yi Zhonghai have curly hair?"

"How would I know that? Besides, Banggeng and Dongxu look so much alike."

Qin Huairu said with red eyes that she had no idea what was going on with the straight hair and the curly hair, but she was sure that the child was indeed Jia Dongxu's.

"You swear to Dongxu, if you dare to tell a lie, be careful that Dongxu will come back and punish you."

After Jia Zhang finished speaking, she was still muttering to herself.

Qin Huairu was a little scared, and felt as if Jia Dongxu in the portrait was smiling at her, so she swore incoherently.

Only then did Jia Zhang believe that Banggeng was indeed her grandson, but she had no intention of letting Qin Huairu go.

"Do you think I don't know anything about what I do at home? You've been having affairs with those men in the factory. You're known as the pretty widow of the steel mill. You have a great reputation."

Jia Zhang sneered.

"Mom, I have no choice. If I don't do this, how will all the people in our family eat? I didn't really let them take advantage of me."

Qin Huairu felt very wronged. Now she knew she was being criticized. She ate a lot of the food she brought back every time.

"Mom was a widow herself, so she knows how hard it is to be a widow. You should find some time to get an IUD."

Qin Huairu's face changed when she heard this. Doesn't this mean she still doesn't believe me? But after thinking about it, she didn't refuse and nodded in agreement.

Only then did Jia Zhang stand up with satisfaction and put away Jia Dongxu's portrait and two candles so that they could be used next time.
