Chapter 504: The Kind-Hearted Distant Cousin

Chapter 504: The Kind-Hearted Distant Cousin

"Huai Ru, where did these things come from?" Jia Dongxu couldn't help but ask.

During the more than ten days he was imprisoned, Jia Dongxu was always worried about the life of his family and whether they would run out of food.

But looking at it today, not only is there no food shortage at home, but the situation is even better than before.

This shouldn’t be the case. Where would the money come from to buy these things?

Qin Huairu ignored him and took the teacup to pour some water.

Jia Dongxu quickly picked up the kettle and poured a cup of water for Qin Huairu.

"Humph!"

Jia Zhang just snorted coldly, picked up Banggeng and went to the yard to take the baby for a walk.

Is it necessary to please this country girl?

I raised Jia Dongxu with great difficulty, but I never even had to pour water for him.

Qin Huairu glanced at Jia Zhang's back as she left, scratched her nose and said, "My family ran out of food a while ago, and I couldn't just watch my family starve to death, so I thought about going to my distant cousin's house to borrow some money."

"But these days, who is willing to lend money, not even relatives? But my cousin saw that our family was really pitiful, so he let me stay and work as a handyman, so that we could have money to buy food."

As she spoke, Qin Huairu took out a few crumpled banknotes from her pocket.

"There's still some money left here, and I plan to spend it all tomorrow on the cheapest cornmeal."

Still have money?

Jia Dongxu was suddenly delighted. He reached out to take the money and counted it. There were more than three yuan in total.

You know what, when the family’s financial difficulties reach a certain level, money starts to smell like money.

"Okay, take this money and use it to buy food tomorrow." Jia Dongxu felt relieved and began to feel guilty.

After all, he was locked up because he went into a small alley, and he was afraid that Qin Huairu would bring up the matter.

As for the distant cousin Qin Huairu mentioned, Jia Dongxu didn't ask much. It was normal to have a rich distant relative these days.

Especially those who are willing to give money, they are even closer than cousins!

"Are you going to work tomorrow?" Jia Dongxu asked, changing the subject.

Qin Huairu's eyes flashed with a trace of entanglement, and after a few seconds she replied: "I won't go tomorrow, the work is done."

After that, Qin Huairu suggested: "Dongxu, when our mother went to take over the post, she had a fight with Guo Dapiezi and was..."

"What? Our mom and Guo Da Piezi are fighting?"

Jia Dongxu's face changed and he couldn't help but become nervous.

It's over! It's over!

Guo Dapiezi didn't like him in the first place, and now they have made a grudge against each other. I'm afraid he won't have a good time in the workshop in the future.

"That's not the point!" Qin Huairu frowned slightly and continued, "The point is that my mother got into a fight and was fined by the factory, so we won't get any salary for the next few months."

"what?"

"Fortunately, our mother can make money by pulling a manure cart, otherwise we would have nothing to eat for the next few months." Jia Dongxu didn't expect that he would encounter such bad news just after he came out, but fortunately, there is always a way out, and the Jia family still has another source of income.

"Well, the street office doesn't allow our mother to pull the manure cart, saying that she is sneaky and has been complained about." Qin Huairu reminded.

Jia Dongxu:........

Qin Huairu glanced at him and knew that Jia Dongxu, this indecisive guy, had panicked.

In the words of Qinjiazhuang, this man can't handle things.

"What should we do then?" As expected, Jia Dongxu asked in a panic.

"I think we should find an opportunity to reconcile with Yi Zhonghai's family. Without their help, our lives will get worse day by day." Qin Huairu took the opportunity to express her thoughts.

Before the Jia family was supported by Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai, their life could not be said to be very wealthy, but they were definitely richer than they are now. Filling their stomachs was the most basic necessity, and they could even have meat every few days.

But now, the family's food and drink have to rely on her to go out and earn money. What a problem.

If Jia Zhang hadn't kept such a close eye on Bang Geng, Qin Huairu would have wanted to take her child back to her parents' home a few days ago.

"But I broke off all ties with him in front of everyone in the hospital!" Jia Dongxu felt that what Qin Huairu said made sense, but he also felt it was embarrassing to reconcile with Yi Zhonghai.

After all, it was he who proposed to sever the master-disciple relationship.

Now he is trying to make peace with Yi Zhonghai by flattering his face. After all, Jia Dongxu is a decent man. Isn't he just slapping himself in the face?

"Which is more important, face or stomach?" Qin Huairu said angrily, "Yi Zhonghai is an old man without a family. If we coax him well, we can not only get him to provide us with food and money, but even our house and job will be ours after he dies."

"When the time comes, you will work in the factory, and our Bang Geng can also go to the factory to take over Yi Zhonghai's job. It will be a two-income family!"

"If you don't think about yourself, you should at least think about our Bang Geng, right?"

Qin Huairu had already discussed with Jia Zhang about finding Yi Zhonghai to reconcile, but Jia Zhang was too embarrassed to go because she wanted to save face.

So Qin Huairu could only persuade Jia Dongxu to admit his mistake.

Yi Zhonghai and his wife have no children, so their biggest concern is their future retirement.

Looking at the entire courtyard, Jia Dongxu is the most suitable one. In addition to the relationship between the two families, Qin Huairu is sure that if Jia Dongxu is willing to admit his mistake, Yi Zhonghai and the aunt will definitely soften their hearts over time.

"Even if I am willing to reconcile with Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai may not reconcile with our family!" Jia Dongxu was still a little embarrassed and made up an excuse.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu knew that Jia Dongxu was also moved. After some persuasion and suggestions, Jia Dongxu finally agreed.

This kind of thing cannot be rushed and needs to be done step by step, otherwise the intention will be too obvious.

Qin Huairu planned to let Jia Dongxu meet Yi Zhonghai or a lady by chance, start by saying hello, and then repair their previous relationship little by little.

So, early the next morning, Jia Dongxu was waiting behind the door.

When Yi Zhonghai went out to wash his face and brush his teeth, Jia Dongxu hurriedly took the towel and toothbrush and went out.

"Oh, Master..."

Halfway through his greeting, Jia Dongxu suddenly choked.

Under the current circumstances, it is not appropriate to call him Master, and it is not appropriate to call him Uncle either. After all, Yi Zhonghai is no longer an Uncle.

Calling him by his first name would seem disrespectful.

"Um...what a coincidence, you're here to brush your teeth too!" Jia Dongxu scratched the back of his head awkwardly, feeling his face burning.

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai looked Jia Dongxu up and down and felt that something was wrong with Jia Dongxu today.

Could it be that someone escaped and left his brain in the security department?

Why are you greeting me for no reason?

Do our two families have a good relationship?

"Humph!"

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly, ignored Jia Dongxu, turned on the faucet and started brushing his teeth.

Seeing this, Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth and moved forward. Before he could open his mouth, he heard a scornful laugh from behind him.

"Hey, Jia Dongxu, what are you doing so early in the morning? Are you looking for your dad?"
