Chapter 33 Returning to Mother’s Home
After Qin Huairu helped Lin Chen wash up in the steaming big bathtub, the couple lay down on the warm kang. Qin Huairu began to tell Lin Chen what she had heard...
"In the evening, when the workers came back from get off work, Jia Dongxu deliberately picked a fight with his wife. The two soon started fighting, and Jia Dongxu failed to subdue Ma Lan. In order to help her son, Jia Zhang also joined in the beating and scolding. Ma Lan felt wronged and ran back to her parents' home to get help. More than 20 people came from the Ma family, all young people... Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong went to stop the fight and ended up being beaten together. This is roughly what happened..."
Lin Chen laughed out loud after hearing this: "What a talent! He can get beaten for trying to start a fight. This is going to be exciting... Stay away from this kind of thing in the future. This time, the Jia family can either divorce or beg the Ma family. Anyway, they can only choose one."

The Central Court
Under the command of He Daqing and Xu Wude, several people were sent to the hospital one after another.
He Daqing pulled the cart along the way, feeling very disappointed with his stupid son...
There was no foresight at all, more than a dozen people rushed in. Just because Yi Zhonghai said, "Hurry up and help me, Zhuru," you rushed forward. Who else would I attack? Look at Xu Damao and Liu Guangqi, they are hiding far away.
……
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and several important figures in the courtyard were still lying in the hospital. The courtyard suddenly became much quieter...
Today is Sunday, and Lin Chen plans to take Qin Huairu back to her parents' home.
Just as the couple was discussing what to buy, Xiao Yushui came to the door. Since Sha Zhu was hit the hardest, the others had improved a little in the past two days. Only Sha Zhu was still half dead. He Daqing had gone to the hospital last night and had not returned. Now Xiao Yushui had no place to eat...
"It's raining a little, I'll go open the door..."
Qin Huairu looked at Lin Chen's back with great curiosity. She didn't even hear the voice, but Lin Chen heard who was coming...
After Lin Chen opened the door, he directly pulled Xiao Yushui, who had two pigtails, in and helped her wash her hands and face.
"Ask your sister-in-law to serve you a bowl of porridge. You can eat this egg first."
Xiao Yushui bit her lip as she looked at the eggs: "Thank you, Brother Chen... Just give me half a steamed bread, and you guys can eat the eggs!"
Lin Chen and Qin Huairu looked at each other and smiled.
"Today's breakfast only has eggs and porridge, so you should eat it quickly! Sister-in-law will serve you some porridge..."
Xiao Yushui then took the egg that her brother Chen had already peeled and began to eat it in small bites...
Qin Huairu put the bowl of rice in front of the little girl and asked: "Yushui, where is your father?"
"I went to the hospital to see my silly brother last night and he hasn't come back yet..."
Qin Huairu looked at the poor little child without a mother to take care of him, and her maternal love began to overflow.
"Eat quickly! Then take away an egg and hide it in your room for lunch. Sister-in-law and your brother Chen will not be home at noon..."
"Thank you sister-in-law!"
Now in the yard, only Gao and Qin Huairu are willing to give Xiao Yushui a bite to eat, while others don't care whether she is hungry or not.
Now that Gao was still guarding the hospital, she could only run to the backyard to find Lin Chen and Qin Huairu.

nine o'clock
The sun was high in the sky, and the couple set out on the road back to her parents' home. Lin Chen bought a lot of things and put them on the bicycle. If Qin Huairu hadn't stopped him, Lin Chen would have bought more...
"Lin Chen, you bought more than when you picked me up. We don't need to spend so much money when we go back to my parents' home..."
Of course Lin Chen knew more, but this was the effect he wanted. Even if the Qin family knew that he was unfaithful in the future, they would not let Qin Huairu divorce him.
The woman he had slept with could not be touched by anyone else... and Qin Jingru would also move to the city in the future...
"It's not much. We're not starving and just pretending to be rich. Salaries are coming up at the end of the month, and Secretary Wan told me last night that he would give me a subsidy for this salary. These won't cost much, and they'll make life a little better for our parents..."
Qin Huairu, who was sitting on the back of the bicycle, was moved by Lin Chen's words and her eyes were wet. She didn't expect that there would be men who were so kind to their wives' families these days. She was really lucky to have Lin Chen. She would be happy to work like a slave for him in the future.
Qin Huairu showed her extraordinary qualities when she was 14 or 15 years old. The villagers praised her for her beauty and said she couldn't stay in the countryside all her life. She should find a man from the city...
As time went by, Qin Huairu grew up and heard more and more things. She also wanted to marry someone from the city.
As long as she could go to the city, she and her family would be able to change their fate of eating coarse food. Now that this has really come true, how could she not be moved! And Lin Chen is still so outstanding...
"Lin Chen, you are so good to me and our family. I will serve you well in the future. I want... I want to give birth to five children for the Lin family... Let our Lin family prosper."
Lin Chen laughed after hearing this...
After an hour's journey, the couple arrived at Qinjiazhuang a little after ten o'clock.
Although no wedding candies were given out this time, cigarettes were still given. The young couple was still warmly welcomed by the third sister-in-law and the fourth aunt...
When Qin Huairu pushed her bicycle to the door, a child had already informed her parents. The old couple was already waiting at the door...
"Come in quickly, why are you back?"
Qin Huairu giggled: "I missed you guys! I've been in the city for half a month and you guys don't miss your daughter!"
Of course the old couple wanted to, but they didn't expect him to come back so soon.
Qin Huairu's brother and sister-in-law also rushed over from their own home to pick up their sister-in-law...
"Your father and I thought you wouldn't be able to come back until the Chinese New Year, but you're back in just half a month."
At this time, Lin Chen had finished a pack of cigarettes on the way into the village. He took out another pack from his pocket, opened it and lit it for his father-in-law and brother-in-law.
"Okay, okay, let's sit inside. You must be freezing on the way. Have some hot tea to warm yourself up..."
At this time, Mrs. Ding had already brought two bowls of sugar tea to Lin Chen and Qin Huairu, and the sister-in-law was treated as a guest when she came back.
"Thank you sister-in-law!"
……
back room
Qin Huairu took out a piece of nice cloth and ten kilograms of first-class cotton and gave them to Ding.
"Sister-in-law, you are very skillful. These cloth and cotton are enough for you and our mother to make a new cotton-padded jacket each. I will bring some for our father and brother next time I come..."
Mother Qin and Mrs. Ding looked at the cloth and the fine cotton in disbelief.
"Girl, if you buy these...won't your brother-in-law be angry? Don't make trouble when you go back..." Qin's mother asked worriedly.
Qin Huairu smiled happily and said, "Mom, I didn't know about these. Lin Chen bought them all and told me on the way out of the city. He is very nice to me and we never quarrel. Look at the things in this pocket. They are all bought by him... He said that the last time he came to pick me up, all the food was eaten on the table and there was nothing left for you, so he bought some more to last until the New Year. We will come again before the New Year..."
Ding excitedly picked up something casually, and it turned out to be a piece of pork belly weighing five or six pounds.
After putting down the meat, Mrs. Ding was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She grabbed her sister-in-law's hand and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Tell my sister-in-law if you have him firmly under control on the kang, otherwise why would Lin Chen be so nice to you."
Qin Huairu blushed immediately when she heard her sister-in-law say this. She was almost completely controlled by Lin Chen. She hadn't hit him once in half a month...
Seeing that her daughter was too embarrassed to speak, Qin's mother walked out of the inner room...
