Siheyuan: Walking the Path of Qin Huairu

Because of this incident, the tavern has been very popular recently. Zhao Yali was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She didn't care about anything else. As long as the tavern was doing well, not only would her salary be guaranteed, but she would also receive some benefits every now and then. She would be content.

Manager Cao Dongyang has recently fallen in love. His heart and eyes are full of Xu Huizhen, and he doesn't like his wife Qu Jing.

After get off work, he didn't do any housework and just lay on the bed and daydreamed. His wife also noticed his abnormality. Women are very sensitive in this regard.

At night, Cao Dongyang had a dream. In the dream, Xu Huizhen had tears in her eyes and looked at him with reluctant eyes. Then she slowly left him and it felt like they were parting forever. He shouted excitedly: "Huizhen, Huizhen, don't leave me. Huizhen..."

His shouting woke Qu Jing up. Qu Jing sat up, turned on the light, and saw her husband stretching out his hand and calling another woman's name affectionately.

After pushing Cao Dongyang, Cao Dongyang woke up from his sleep and realized that it was just a dream. At this time, Qu Jing was staring at him with unfriendly eyes, which made him feel uneasy. He turned over, avoiding his wife's death gaze, and closed his eyes to pretend to sleep.

At this time, Qu Jing had nothing to understand. Her husband had another woman in his heart. No wonder he had been ignoring her during this period of time.

In June, the weather got hot. After Xu Huizhen sold all her seafood, she went to Xikou Village again. The sea water temperature rose in this season, which was a good season for fishing. The children in the village looked forward to Xu Huizhen coming to collect seafood, and asked Feng Hui to write to Xu Huizhen.

Xu Huizhen's arrival made the children excited. They insisted on being busy at the beach for two consecutive days, regardless of the scorching sun. Fortunately, the sea resources are very rich in this era, and there is a reward for hard work.

Artificial cultivation of kelp is very successful. It does not require any technical skills and can be learned easily. In the sea not far from Xikou Village, there is an island called Kongdong Island. There are no residents on this island, but there is fresh water. In the past, when fishing boats from Xikou Village encountered strong winds and waves when going out to sea, they would temporarily stop at the island.

Kongdong Island is crescent-shaped. In the crescent-shaped embrace, the water flow is gentle, which is very suitable for growing kelp. The village chief led everyone to drive many wooden stakes here and pull up rows of ropes with kelp. The kelp is growing well and a good harvest is in sight. In some places where it is too dense, some is harvested and dried on the beach. It can be dried in two days. Seeing the kelp pulled back, the villagers are very grateful to Xu Hui for teaching them everything she knows.

The village chief also worked hard to buy a batch of fish and shrimp from the neighboring village. Summer is a good season for fishing because the sea is calm. However, summer is not a good season for selling fish. The temperature is high. If you can't sell it on the same day, it will be stale on the second day and rotten on the third day. Therefore, the price of fish and shrimp is also cheap. Xu Huizhen returned home with a full load again.

Xu Huizhen kept the seafood she brought back in the space and sent in a batch of money every once in a while.

That afternoon, the tavern had just started to receive customers, and Xu Huizhen was wiping the table with a rag. At this time, two women walked in from outside. The younger one was Cao Dongyang's wife Qu Jing, and the older one was Qu Jing's mother. Of course, Xu Huizhen didn't know these two people.

Qu's mother asked in a bad tone, "Excuse me, which one is Xu Huizhen?"

Xu Huizhen raised her head and said, "It's me. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Qu's mother came prepared. She said coldly: "You are the vixen who seduced my son-in-law! I will scratch your face." As she spoke, she pounced towards Xu Huizhen and stretched out her Nine Yin White Bone Claw to grab Xu Huizhen.

Xu Huizhen stood still, and just when Qu's mother's hand was about to grab her face, she quickly dodged to the right, but her feet did not move. Qu's mother missed, because she used too much force and failed to brake, and was tripped by Xu Huizhen's foot, and heard a "thump", Qu's mother fell face down.

Everyone present gasped, feeling pain for her. Qu Jing quickly stepped forward and helped the old lady up: "Mom, are you okay?"

Xu Huizhen said calmly: "Everyone bear witness to my testimony. She tried to hit me but failed. She fell down by herself. It has nothing to do with me!"

Qu Jing saw her mother's mouth full of blood, and heard Xu Huizhen trying to distance herself from the matter. She pointed at Xu Huizhen and said, "You evil bastard, I'm going to fight you." Then she rushed forward and tried to wrestle with Xu Huizhen.

Xu Huizhen is now very confident in her body's agility. The moment Qu Jing pounced on her, she leaned back, avoided Qu Jing's outstretched hand, and kicked Qu Jing in the stomach. She kicked with great force, enough to make Qu Jing suffer a heavy blow.

That's right, she just wanted to defeat the enemy in one move. Fighting with two shrews was not the result she wanted. It would be too ungraceful.

Sure enough, Qu Jing took two steps back, fell to the ground, and pushed down two stools. After a scream, she covered her stomach and couldn't get up, groaning in pain.

Qu's mother wanted to rush over with her arms and legs bared, but was stopped by Cai Quanwu, who said, "Auntie, you won't be able to defeat my opponent even if you go up to him. A gentleman uses words rather than violence. It's better for us to reason with each other." Qu's mother thought about it and felt that it was true. If she went up to him, she would only suffer.

Xu Huizhen said innocently, "Everyone bear witness to my actions. She was the first to attack me. I can't just sit there and wait for death. I was just acting in self-defense."

Qu Jing calmed down, sat on the ground and cried: "This shameless woman seduced my husband. My husband's soul was seduced away by her. She also beat people. Oh, God, please send a thunderbolt to kill him! I can't live like this anymore, wuwuwu..."

Listening to the dirty words coming out of her mouth, Xu Huizhen was overwhelmed. It was really like sitting at home and the pot came from the sky. She went forward to pinch Qu Jing's chin, gently lifted it, and with a snap, the jaw was dislocated, and the cursing stopped. This trick was learned by Xu Huizhen from her master in her previous life.

Xu Huizhen said slowly, "Look at your appearance. Your waist is thicker than a bucket, you spit shit out of your mouth, you are middle-aged, and you are sloppy. With your appearance, if I were your man, I would not like you. Why would I seduce you? Then again, I don't even know how many eyes and legs your man has, so don't bite me recklessly!"

Someone said: "Manager Xu, don't you know? All men have three legs."

Xu Huizhen looked for the person who was talking in the crowd with a cold look in her eyes, and frightened the other person so much that he quickly lowered his head. She didn't have time to care about these gossips now, and her main target was Qu Jing and her daughter.

She continued, "With your image, your man is not much better. I swear to the great leader that I did not seduce your man. I, Xu Huizhen, have a high appearance, a high salary, and a high level of education, three highs! If your man comes to carry my shoes, I can kick him out three miles away, do you believe it?"

Pian Ye said, "Yes, comrade, you must be mistaken. Manager Xu is a top-notch woman in Daqianmen. Even the mayor of Xuanwu District praises her highly. Ordinary people are not worthy of her attention."

Kong Yuqin: "Our Manager Xu is an educated and cultured person. He has published several poems in newspapers. You are the only man in your family who is rare. You are not even worthy of carrying the shoes of our Manager Xu."

A group of people chattered, all speaking for Xu Huizhen. Qu's mother wiped the blood from her mouth and cried, "You are still quibbling. My son-in-law calls your name when he sleeps at night! You two may have hooked up with each other a long time ago!"
