Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

"Someone in the courtyard gossiped about you?"

Jia Dongxu said, rubbing his forehead, what's going on? Maybe I'm starting to sober up, my head is starting to hurt a little.

"Let me massage you." Qin Huairu helped Jia Dongxu lie on her legs and massaged his head.

Qin Huairu pinched it and said, "It was the family next door who said that. She came over after noon today and said that I didn't work at home and was waiting for you to support me. My mother and I were helping to clean the bricks, and she came over and said this. Isn't it infuriating?"

“I didn’t eat their food.”

"You don't have to pay attention to her. She's just bored. She's already busy with her family of five, so how can she worry about these things?"

Jia Dongxu said, what does Yan Bugui's wife mean? Yan Bugui just became a master, and he wants to be arrogant?

Still gossiping about the new bride in the yard?

"She is the most idle person in the yard. After washing clothes, she throws the children into the yard and chats with others. Mom used to be the same as her, but now she has taken on a few jobs and is also busy."

"The other ladies in the courtyard are all planning to help Zhuzi in the kitchen, so he will just go there jealously."

"Okay, I'll listen to you and ignore her. My mother also told me to ignore her." Qin Huairu said.

"He also wanted the bricks for our front door, but she said I was free, so I didn't agree."

"No, I've already given it to our colleagues. They're building a house and they want to use it to lay the floor."

Jia Dongxu thought of Wang Tongming and Zhang Daniu. They would definitely need these bricks, so he would just ask Master Lei to help transport them over.

"Okay, I think she means that the bricks from Zhuzi's family should also be given to her," Qin Huairu said with a smile.

"What the hell does she want!" Jia Dongxu couldn't help but swear.

"There will be a meeting in the yard later. You should show up and let everyone know you." Jia Dongxu said.

"Ah? Everyone in the hospital knows him." Qin Huairu said embarrassedly.

"Okay, you and mom will watch from the side for a while."

Jia Dongxu said that the situation in the hospital was very complicated. He had been busy these days and had not paid attention to what was happening in the hospital.

Yan Bugui waited anxiously at the gate, and only went to Jia Dongxu's house after Master Lei and the others left.

Without knocking, he walked straight into the house and looked around the new house with envy. He saw Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang washing dishes by the well in the kitchen.

"Mrs. Jia? Where's Dongxu?"

"Oh, Teacher Yan, what's the matter?" Jia Zhang said while washing dishes. Seeing Yan Bugui looking at her proudly while walking, she felt a little dissatisfied.

"Teacher Yan, isn't it inappropriate to walk around the room like this?"

Only then did Yan Bugui realize that the bricks on the ground were the ones he had been coveting for a long time.

"Mrs. Jia, your floor is really nice. Can you lend me the bricks from outside to lay it down later?"

Qin Huairu quickly leaned over to Jia Zhang's ear and said that Jia Dongxu had already given it to his colleague.

Jia Zhang rolled her eyes and said, "Oh, Teacher Yan, I'm so sorry. Dongxu has already sold the bricks outside to someone else to build a house."

"Sold it? How much did you sell it for? I want to buy it too, but we are neighbors, can you pay less?" Yan Bugui asked hurriedly. These old bricks only cost one or two yuan.

Jia Zhang smiled and said, "I sold it for 10 yuan. If you want it, I'll give you a discount of 8 yuan."

Yan Bugui said quickly, "Oh, this guy is raising the price recklessly. He doesn't know the rules at all."

"Even this old brick costs 8 yuan, 8 yuan can be used to buy new bricks for paving the floor."

"Sister Jia, can you give me a discount of 4 yuan?"

Jia Zhang looked at her daughter-in-law and then said, "No, no, we have already agreed on the price. We have also agreed on the old bricks for the pillars, and we will sell them at this price."

Yan Bugui had originally planned to go to Sha Zhu to ask for bricks, but after hearing this, he knew there was no hope.

I looked at the bricks on the ground with envy. They were so beautiful in square shapes.

Then he thought about the meeting, "Sister-in-law, where is Dongxu? Ask her to come down for the meeting."

"Having a meeting now? We still have a lot of work to do at home. Let's wait a little longer. It's not convenient now." Jia Zhang said while washing dishes. She was really blind. She left the work to her wife and wandered around everywhere herself.

“Huai Ru, take the pot down, use a bigger pot to boil some hot water, and give the rain a bath.”

"Okay, Mom, I'll boil some water now." Qin Huairu got up quickly, changed the pot, and boiled a bucket of water.

Seeing Yan Bugui still strolling around her house, Jia Zhang couldn't help but feel a little angry, "Teacher Yan, if you have time, go home and give Jie Cheng and the other four a bath. Don't leave all the work to the girls."

He is such a hands-off boss. He has four children at home and does no work.

"Uh, okay." Yan Bugui went out and went home awkwardly.

"Bah, what a piece of crap, it's really a piece of shit!" Jia Zhang said dissatisfiedly. She walked around in my house and asked me to mop the floor.

Jia Zhang picked up the mop and started mopping the floor. "Dongxu is really a fool. He has to use so much cloth to make a mop."

Qin Huairu couldn't help but laugh when she heard this and said, "Mom, these are old clothes that you and Dongxu don't wear anymore. When I get paid after entering the factory, I'll buy you new cloth to make clothes."

"No, Mom has money, you should save your money for my grandson."

Today the old lady gave Jia Zhang 10 yuan, asking Jia Zhang to help with the laundry and cooking.

Together with the 10 yuan living expenses that the post office sent to Yu Shui a few days ago, Jia Zhang is now very happy.

"Mom, go call Yushui over. I'll give her a bath and go to bed early." Qin Huairu said as she took her basin, fetched water and adjusted the water temperature.

"Girl, why are you using your own basin? I'll go get you a basin of rain water." Jia Zhang said, and went to the side to get the basin of rain water.

Yu Shui and Sha Zhu were playing on the second floor at this time, and they didn't know what they were having fun for.

"Huai Ru, Dong Xu drank too much, please help him wipe it off." Jia Zhang said, and went upstairs to call Yu Shui.

"Zhu Zi, go get some water to wash your head and face. Teacher Yan said there will be a meeting soon, and we don't know what time it will end." Jia Zhang took Yu Shui downstairs and said to Sha Zhu.

"Hey, ok Aunt Jia."

Sha Zhu was curious for a while, then went downstairs to get some water. He looked at the new shoes that Aunt Jia had handed over to him at noon and said that they were made by some kitchen helpers.

Sha Zhu couldn't help but feel happy. In the past, no one made shoes for him. Now he heard from Aunt Jia that she was making new clothes for him to wear when cooking.

Sha Zhu rubbed his eyes. He met He Daqing in Fengze Garden today. He just handed him 100 yuan and left without saying anything.

I will ask Jia Dongxu later what this means. He Daqing doesn't care about my house construction.

Watching Jia Zhang taking Yu Shui into the bathroom to wash her hair and take a bath, Sha Zhu shook his head. Thanks to Dong Xu's arrangement. If he had been asked to do these things for Yu Shui, he would have been annoyed to death.
