Siheyuan: Qin Huairu is a lucky charm for her husband

Chapter 2182 Da Zhuang and Tong Zhi's money is back!

Now, at the breakfast tables in the courtyard houses, everyone is talking about Wang Tiedan's refusal to adopt his niece.

Every resident in the courtyard house cursed him; even Ji Cheng, Zhong Zhengguo, and Zhao Lichun couldn't stand their partner.

On the contrary, everyone praised the old man for his righteousness and for his dedication to maintaining the reputation of the civilized compound.

Lin Chen arranged for Aunt Wang to give Xiao Hua a bath and change her clothes before heading off to work. This also gave the grandmother and granddaughter some time to say goodbye…

Jia Zhangshi returned from the front yard covered in injuries, so she didn't go out to join the commotion this time. However, her staying home didn't mean that Ji Cheng and his wife would give up...

Now that they're getting closer to the truth, Ji Cheng and his wife are itching to bite Yang Weimin and Jia Zhangshi. They actually used such shameless and underhanded tactics to damage their own reputation and even brought it to their workplace.

However, Madam Jia didn't care whether she was exposed or not; she wasn't losing money anyway. The rest was a matter for the Ji and Yang families… Right now, she was at home sleeping and recovering from her injuries.

Just as Jia Zhangshi was about to fall asleep during her second nap, Yi Zhonghai wandered over.

Yi Zhonghai is going to work in the next couple of days. He didn't come to borrow money; he came to see a joke.

After angrily opening the door, Jia Zhangshi glared at the other person and said, "Spit it out if you have something to say. I'm busy!"

Yi Zhonghai had already gotten used to Jia Zhangshi's attitude towards him, and he still looked at her with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, don't get so angry! I didn't come here to borrow money..."

Madam Jia Zhang really thought that the old man was up to steal her coffin again, otherwise she wouldn't have been so fierce to him when they met.

"Tch, it's no use even if you want to. I don't know who to borrow some flowers from right now."

Yi Zhonghai knew that Jia Zhangshi, who was known for her tough tactics, was no longer afraid of him, so he decided to change his approach.

"Here, take this. Don't keep getting injured all the time. Where have you been these past two days? Do you know I've been looking for you for two days?"

Jia Zhangshi frowned as she looked at the liniment for sprains and bruises that Yi Zhonghai handed her.

"You've been looking for me these past few days? I don't believe you."

Yi Zhonghai is a liar, and it's true he went out for a two-day stroll. But he wasn't genuinely looking for Jia Zhangshi; he was just there to see Liu Shuaiyin make a fool of himself!

After glancing at the doors of the other residents' houses in the front yard, Yi Zhonghai raised his hand and began to swear an oath.

"May anyone who lies be struck by lightning. I really did go to Liu the Cripple's house to look for you. You can ask him if you don't believe me; he said he didn't know where you went. I just..."

When Jia Zhangshi saw that Lao Yi was serious, she pulled him into the house.

"Keep your voice down, don't let Cui Dake's wife hear. She was just hanging clothes out to dry at the door. These bastards have been bullying her to death these past two days! Waaah... Old Yi, you really care about your wife."

Three days have passed since Zhong Zhengguo knocked Jia Zhangshi down. Jia Zhangshi has had her share of experiences these past few days, making a fortune, no doubt. But the beatings she received were truly brutal…

Yi Zhonghai looked at the weeping Jia Zhangshi and sighed as well.

"Stop crying! The courtyard houses of today are not the same as those of the past. You should restrain yourself! I'm leaving! I have to go to work tomorrow. From now on, let's all keep a low profile."

Yi Zhonghai turned to leave, but Jia Zhangshi grabbed him.

"Old Yi, you're still the one who truly loves your wife. Wait for me to rest for a couple of days, and then we'll go back to guerrilla warfare."

Yi Zhonghai's initial intention was to scam women out of their savings for medical treatment, and now, during a seemingly pleasant conversation, she's about to have an affair. This guy is giving him a real headache…

"No, no, I'm too scared to even have fun right now! You'd better watch yourself!"

Yi Zhonghai left without looking back, knowing that staying in broad daylight for too long would surely lead to trouble.

After chasing him to the door, Jia Zhangshi watched Yi Zhonghai's retreating figure and sneered, "Even a mosquito bite is still meat! As long as this old bastard goes to work, he'll have some spare cash. I can't let him get away with this..."

Both of them are now harboring their own ulterior motives, and it remains to be seen who will prevail.

While Jia Zhangshi was secretly meeting her old flame at home, Qiangzi wasn't idle either. He arrived at the entrance of He Yufen's family village in Shunyi on time as agreed to pick her up…

ten o'clock in the morning

Qiangzi waited and waited, and finally saw the person he was supposed to pick up.

"Comrade, you're finally out! I thought you weren't going back to Beijing!"

He Yufen didn't give Qiangzi any travel expenses when she came; they had agreed to give them together when she got back.

But this woman still doesn't want to pay the fare...

"I'm so sorry, comrade, I just finished washing my mother's clothes before leaving. Let's go now!"

Qiangzi didn't complain too much, so he happily got on his tricycle and took He Yufen back to the city.

"Comrade, you are truly filial. It's such a pity you married into the Zhuang family!"

On the way here, Qiangzi kept thinking that if he could dump Jia Zhangshi and marry He Yufen, he would be hitting the jackpot! She'd be at least ten years younger than Jia Zhangshi!

If others can poach big players, why can't I?

However, He Yufen was only interested in the salary of a fourth-level worker, and she looked down on Qiangzi, who did manual labor by pedaling a tricycle.

Besides, other people who steal each other's partners are all single men, what the hell are you doing stealing someone else's partner when you already have a wife?

If Li Dabao knew what Qiangzi was thinking, he would definitely beat him to a pulp.

"It's a pity, but there's nothing I can do. His salary is too high! I'm lucky if anyone wants to hire a widow like me!"

Qiangzi feigned sympathy for the other person's plight... and so the two chatted idly for about ten miles.

After discussing Dazhuang, the two talked about Jia Zhangshi, since He Yufen had dealt with Jia Zhangshi before.

Now it was Qiangzi's turn to pour out his troubles, and the two of them were getting along incredibly well. It seemed like these two unfortunate souls were about to spark a romance...

Wenyu River Embankment

Qiangzi looked around and saw that no one was passing by, so he decided to stop and rest.

He Yufen got off the tricycle to stretch her legs after the bumpy ride.

"Brother Zhu, here's the fifty cents I promised you. You've worked hard enough to take it..."

Qiangzi chuckled foolishly, "No, no, no, it's no trouble at all... You take it first, we'll talk about it when we get into the city."

As a result, the two of them pushed and shoved each other until they tumbled into the grass on the riverbank... At this point, Qiangzi stopped pretending! He grabbed He Yufen and started kissing her...

He Yufen started to feign concern, and in the end, Qiangzi got so excited that he took out all the money he had on him.

And just like that, the money that Tong Zhi and Da Zhuang had lost to Jia Zhangshi was earned back by He Yufen... Even Lin Chen didn't know this would happen.

Jiudaowanzi

Tong Zhi and Da Zhuang got home late last night. Having just finished a day's work and been knocked out again, they received no sympathy from anyone.

They went to Xicheng District under the guise of drinking, and now who will pity them? Many people are still cursing them, saying they deserved it, and that they were warned not to go out at night. Now look what happened! Those who don't listen to their elders suffer the consequences.

Tong Zhi and Da Zhuang didn't want the people in the courtyard to know why they were beaten, so they were left speechless and unable to express their suffering.

The two guys are now hiding at home recovering from their injuries. They only said that they got into a fight when someone picked a fight while they were drinking.
