Chapter 614: A Priceless Stone
Chen Xueru said seriously, "If I remarry, even if I hide something from my husband, it would be disrespectful to the word [husband and wife]."
He Yuzhu said speechlessly: "Boss Chen, every couple has their own lifestyle. It is stupid to compare without any meaning."
Hearing this, Xu Huizhen said lovingly, "Hubby, you said it very well."
He Yuzhu said tenderly: "Wife, your husband is not a male chauvinist. I know clearly that only a marriage with mutual understanding and tolerance can last long..."
Chen Xueru was so jealous of the two people's appearance that she said dissatisfiedly:
"Okay, stop showing off your affection here. My teeth are sore."
Xu Huizhen glanced at Chen Xueru and said calmly, "I didn't ask you to look at me. Husband, let's go home."
He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't you have to go to work?"
Xu Huizhen blinked and said, "I am the boss. I can go to work when I want to and leave when I want to."
Hearing this, He Yuzhu stood up and said with a smile: "Then let's go home!"
Xu Huizhen immediately took He Yuzhu's arm and walked out with a sweet face.
Chen Xueru said angrily: "Director He, I kindly invited you to drink, and you haven't even finished the drink yet, how can you leave?"
"Isn't it just two taels of wine? It's nothing..."
After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he picked up the wine jug, opened the lid, tilted his head back, and with a few gurgling sounds, he drank all the wine in the jug.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for the wine. I'll treat you next time!"
Chen Xueru watched Xu Huizhen and He Yuzhu leave arm in arm, feeling extremely angry.
He Yuzhu and his companion left the tavern and prepared to go back to He's house to pick up the child before returning to the courtyard.
Back at the He residence, Xu Huizhen said in a serious tone, "Husband, Chen Xueru is right. There should be no secrets between husband and wife. I will tell you the secret recipe of pickles now."
He Yuzhu raised the corners of his mouth and said in a relaxed tone:
"Wife, you don't need to tell me. I know the secret of why your pickles are so delicious."
Xu Huizhen said firmly: "Impossible!"
He Yuzhu winked and said, "If I tell you this secret, you will agree to the positions I proposed last night."
Xu Huizhen's pretty face flushed instantly when she heard this, and she suppressed her shame and said:
"Tell me first!"
He Yuzhu smiled calmly, his face full of confidence:
"The reason why your pickles are so delicious is probably because of the stone that presses them down."
Xu Huizhen was surprised and asked, "How did you know?"
He Yuzhu smiled and said, "I seem to have told you that I am an expert in appraising treasures. I can tell at a glance that this stone is not an ordinary stone, but a priceless piece of Hetian jade seed material."
"The reason your pickles have a unique taste is all because of this stone."
Xu Huizhen pouted and said, "Since you've already seen it, why don't you ask me?"
He Yuzhu said casually: "Since you didn't tell me on your own initiative, why should I ask more? When you want to tell me, you will tell me naturally."
Xu Huizhen pretended to be afraid and said, "You are so scary. Nothing I do can escape your eyes."
"Don't say these useless things. Remember what you promised me. Let's have a good time tonight." He Yuzhu said with a smirk.
Xu Huizhen blushed and said, "I didn't promise you!"
He Yuzhu grinned and chuckled, "Whether you agree or not, you can't escape tonight."
Xu Huizhen angrily hit He Yuzhu and said with a pout, "You are so domineering!"
……
Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, the courtyard was very quiet, no one was making trouble, and everyone spent the Spring Festival and Lantern Festival peacefully.
Early in the morning that day, Jia Zhang went to the pigeon market and bought half a pound of pork.
Sun Jinfeng saw this and said in a weird tone:
"Oh my, Jia Zhang, has your family become rich? Can you even afford pork?"
Jia Zhang glared with her triangular eyes: "It's none of your business!"
Sun Jinfeng said with a smile: "It's really none of my business, but I can smell from a distance that your pork is not clean."
Jia Zhang said angrily, "Bullshit, how can the fresh pork I bought not be clean?"
Sun Jinfeng said disdainfully: "Because the money you used to buy the pork was not clean! This money should have been earned by your daughter-in-law selling her body, right?"
Jia Zhang was furious and said, "Sun Jinfeng, I fuck your ancestors for eight generations. You are spewing shit so early in the morning. Do you want to fight?"
Sun Jinfeng jokingly said, "Jia Zhang, you are so angry, is it because I hit a sore spot?"
He Yuzhu frowned and said, "What's wrong with you two? We finally have a Sunday, and you're quarreling early in the morning. Can't you be more quiet?"
Jia Zhang said with a face full of grievance: "Master, you really want me to make the decision! My grandson was discharged from the hospital today, and I went to buy him some pork to nourish his body, but this old whore insisted that my pork was not clean."
Sun Jinfeng said confidently: "Your pork is not clean to begin with. Who in this ten-kilometer radius doesn't know that Qin Huairu is having an affair with someone else and destroying social morals?"
"The money you earned from selling pork must have been earned by Qin Huairu through dirty tricks."
He Yuzhu said sternly, "Aunt Sun, you guessed wrong. The money that Jia Zhang used to buy the pork was exchanged for Banggeng's left eye."
"Bang Geng's left eye was blown out, and the perpetrator's family paid the Jia family 200 yuan in compensation."
When He Yuzhu said this, there was an uproar at the scene.
"Damn, that dog's eyes can actually be exchanged for 200 yuan?"
"You are wrong. Eyes are the most precious thing in the human body. Banggeng has lost his left eye. I think his life is over."
"That makes sense. Eyes are too important to us. No one would be willing to exchange them for 200 yuan, let alone 20 or 20,000 yuan."
"The eyes of ordinary people are indeed priceless treasures, but the eyes of a stick terrier are worthless. After all, this little bastard has done so many bad things that it is difficult for him to survive to adulthood."
"Bang Geng's dog eyes are indeed not worth 200 yuan, but they are still shameless like Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang."
"In order to avoid being convicted of a serious crime, the kid who smashed Bang Geng's eyes must obtain a letter of forgiveness from Bang Geng. His parents have no choice but to accept the blackmail from Qin Huairu and her daughter-in-law."
Sun Jinfeng said indignantly: "Banggeng is a bad bastard. He is a bad guy and will be shot sooner or later. I didn't expect that his eye could be exchanged for 200 yuan. It's really unfair!"
He Yuzhu said in a deep voice: "Aunt Sun, this is indeed your fault, apologize to Jia Zhang!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Jinfeng said hypocritically: "Jia Zhang, I'm sorry, I thought the money you used to buy the meat was earned by your daughter-in-law selling her body, but I didn't expect it was earned by your grandson's eyes..."
Sun Jinfeng's apology was full of sarcasm, which made Jia Zhang so angry that she jumped to her feet. But now her family was ostracized by everyone in the courtyard, and she could do nothing about Sun Jinfeng. She could only glare at Sun Jinfeng fiercely and went home with an indignant face.
He Yuzhu's mouth twitched, and he said inwardly: "Sun Jinfeng, this old woman has such a bad mouth!"
