Siheyuan: The beauty Xueru Huizhen, the birds are jealous

"Yi Zhonghai is such a stingy guy! Asking him for help is like digging out his heart and liver!"

"That's right. Our Dongxu will have to take care of him in his old age and see him to the end of his life. And this is how he treats us?"

Jia Zhang suddenly thought of something and said to Qin Huairu, "When the whole courtyard meets later, you must give me a good performance.

Now, if you let my Dongxu and grandson go hungry, I will not forgive you!"

Qin Huairu could only nod in agreement, but her heart was filled with bitterness. She understood that in this family, she was just a servant busy with housework and childbirth, with no status and no dignity.

Whenever she thought of Xu Huizhen, her heart was filled with envy. Xu Huizhen also married into the same courtyard, but she was not bound by her parents-in-law, and her daughter was treated as a treasure by Yang Ming. But she was like being deeply trapped in a quagmire, and she didn't know when she could be freed.

As night fell, the silence in the courtyard was broken by a long-lost drum sound, announcing the arrival of an unusual moment.

"Please wait a moment," someone announced loudly, "each family will elect a representative. We will hold an emergency meeting of the whole house tonight."

The news was like a breeze blowing across the lake, stirring up waves in the hearts of the residents.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, two senior managers in Siheyuan, often boasted that they were on equal footing with Yi Zhonghai. However, they were quite surprised that Yi Zhonghai made such a decision alone.

Liu Haizhong frowned and asked in confusion: "Old Yi, what is the reason? Why did you call a meeting of the whole hospital in such a hurry?"

Yi Zhonghai smiled bitterly and explained, "Old Liu, Old Yan, I am helpless. The Dongxu family is currently short of food and asked me for help. But every family is in trouble now, and food is even more stretched."

"Therefore, I propose to hold this meeting of the entire hospital to see if we can gather everyone's strength to solve the urgent problem for the Dongxu family."

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui looked at each other and thought about it in their minds.

Soon, the whole courtyard meeting kicked off amid everyone's anticipation. All residents gathered in the middle courtyard, and the three managers - Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong, and Yi Zhonghai - sat around the eight-person table.

Unexpectedly, Yi Zhonghai was the first to speak. He stood up and said to the crowd:

"I have called everyone together today because there is an important matter that requires your support and help. Our Siheyuan has always upheld the spirit of mutual assistance. Now that the Jia family is facing difficulties, we should lend a helping hand."

He went on to elaborate: "The Jia family is having a hard time right now. Dongxu, as the only breadwinner of the family, has to feed four people, plus Qin Huairu is pregnant, so food is indeed tight."

"Therefore, I implore everyone to carry forward traditional virtues and donate some food to the Jia family to help them through this difficult time."

As soon as Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, the courtyard fell into silence. In this special era, food is precious to everyone, and no one is willing to give it up easily. What's more, the Jia family has always been controversial in the courtyard and is called "ungrateful people" by everyone.

Seeing everyone was silent, Yi Zhonghai showed embarrassment on his face. He looked at Qin Huairu, hoping that she would take some action. Qin Huairu, who was pregnant, walked to the center of the yard, tears in her eyes, and said in a choked voice:

"Dear neighbors, our family is having a very difficult time right now. As you all know, Dongxu is the only one working to support the family. I implore everyone to lend a hand and help this unfortunate family of ours."

I am pregnant at the moment, and my mother-in-law's health is worrying. She often needs medication to support her. In addition, our young son Bang Geng is still so young and needs our care...

We adults may be able to endure the torment of hunger, but children are innocent and they really cannot bear such torture!

I implore you to lend a hand and help us through this difficult time. Our family will always remember this kindness.

Qin Huairu was naturally beautiful. Even though she was pregnant and her figure was a little plump, her face was still delicate, and the tears flashing in her eyes made people feel pity.

Hearing Qin Huairu talk about her family's difficulties, everyone present couldn't help but feel sympathetic.

Sister Qin, if you had told me earlier, I would have ten kilograms of flour available for you to take away.

Among this group of people, a loud voice particularly attracted people's attention. The speaker was none other than the pursuer of Qin Huairu, who was often nicknamed "the big fool", Sha Zhu.

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

Ten kilograms of white flour is a considerable amount for many people, enough to buy a lot of corn flour to fill their stomachs.

Although Sha Zhu, as a chef, did not have to do heavy physical labor, his food quota was not as good as Jia Dongxu's. However, he was still willing to provide such help to Qin Huairu's family without hesitation.

Seeing Sha Zhu's concern for Qin Huairu, everyone was filled with admiration. Although Qin Huairu was beautiful, she was Jia Dongxu's wife after all. Sha Zhu's actions could only earn Qin Huairu a word of thanks at best.

Sure enough, when Qin Huairu heard Sha Zhu's proposal, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes, and she gave Sha Zhu a grateful look.

Silly, thank you so much.

Hearing these words and seeing Qin Huairu's eyes full of gratitude, Sha Zhu's heart was filled with joy. He scratched his hair and waved his hand nonchalantly.

Sister Qin, there's no need to be so polite between you and me. This is just a small matter and not worth mentioning.

It is conceivable that if Qin Huairu showed more gratitude to Sha Zhu, Sha Zhu would probably take out his clothes without hesitation.

However, in Jia Dongxu's eyes, all this was a different feeling. Watching his wife flirting with Sha Zhu in front of him, his heart was filled with humiliation, as if he had an invisible green hat on his head.

In anger, he shouted: Qin Huairu, come back to me!

Hearing this, Qin Huairu trembled, and she turned and walked towards Jia Dongxu. She understood her husband's intentions, although

Feeling aggrieved, he still tried to explain: Dongxu, I...

Stop pretending to be pitiful. I won’t fall for it! Jia Dongxu interrupted her.

"Remember, you belong to my Jia family. You must respect yourself from now on and don't flirt with other men casually."

Qin Huairu was filled with sorrow when she heard this, and tears welled up in her eyes. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, as Sha Zhu generously donated ten kilograms of flour, Yi Zhonghai followed suit and expressed his attitude.

"Since Shazhu is so generous and donated ten kilograms of flour,"

"I am not stingy either. I donated ten kilograms of corn flour to show my support." Seeing that Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai were so generous, Liu Haizhong cleared his throat and spoke to save his face.
