Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Chapter 207 Qin Huairu shows off her acting skills, but Wang Hongtao remains unmoved

Looking at Banggeng with a bitter look on his face and Xiaodang who knew nothing but was eating cornmeal porridge with gusto, Qin Huairu finally softened her heart.

"How about Jingru accompany me to try it?" Qin Huairu asked tentatively.

Qin Jingru stood up reluctantly: "It's okay to try, but I think it's too much."

"Besides, I'm just going to accompany you for a while. I won't help you with anything."

Jia Zhang was so angry that she reached out to pinch Qin Jingru: "You little girl, why are you so stubborn? It won't hurt to say anything."

Qin Huairu hurriedly pulled Qin Jingru up and left.

As they were leaving the house, Qin Jingru whispered, "Sister, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but if it's just the two of us eating, Brother Tao will definitely have no objection, but if you want to take it away, I think you'd better not open your mouth to avoid making Brother Tao angry."

Qin Huairu responded absentmindedly.

She had no appetite to eat the cornmeal steamed buns she ate every day, so even if Jia Zhangshi didn't let her come, she would still come to "clean up" by herself.

She had already regarded herself as Wang Hongtao's woman, and there was nothing wrong with going to his place to have a full meal.

Of course it would be even better if we could bring some back.

……

backyard.

Wang Hongtao was holding egg fried rice in his hand and there was a big bowl of pork bone and radish soup on the table. He was enjoying the meal very much.

Under the table, Ah Huang was struggling with a huge bone, and the crackling sound could be heard all over the place.

Seeing the two sisters' embarrassed expressions, Wang Hongtao understood immediately and said with a smile, "You have a good nose, don't you? There's more fried rice in the pot, help yourself."

Soon Qin Jingru came out with a flat bowl, but Qin Huairu's bowl was so full that it was overflowing. Wang Hongtao looked at her and said nothing, but just helped Jingru to pour a bowl of soup.

"Why are you being so polite when you come to my place? Have you forgotten what I told you? Eat more and fatten yourself up, that's how I like you."

"Yeah!" Qin Jingru nodded heavily, feeling warm in her heart.

Qin Huairu looked at it and seemed to be hesitant to speak, but in the end she said nothing.

After quickly finishing her meal, Qin Jingru stood up obediently, cleaned the table, and then went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Qin Huairu slowed down after eating half a bowl, then put down her chopsticks and said hesitantly: "Um...can I take the rest home and eat it slowly?"

Wang Hongtao stared at Qin Huairu for a long time before slowly saying, "I said if it's just you, I'll have as much as you want to eat, but if you want to take it back to the Jia family, not even a grain of rice will be allowed!"

Wang Hongtao is a vengeful person. He would rather let Yu Li take the food back to the Yan family than let Qin Huairu take it back to the Jia family.

If you bring back the third uncle of the Yan family, he will at least say hello to you and say a few flattering words to you.

Why bring him back to the Jia family? Let Jia Zhangshi eat her fill and have the energy to curse? He didn't believe that Jia Zhangshi wouldn't curse him after she was full.

Qin Huairu faced Wang Hongtao's gaze and said worriedly, "We have been eating coarse grains for a week at home. If this continues, the adults will not be able to bear the children."

"I know you don't like my mother-in-law, but Bang Geng and Xiao Dang..."

Wang Hongtao's eyes became increasingly stern. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Qin Huairu without saying a word.

Qin Huairu held back her tears and pursed her lips as she said, "Can't you just give in to me a little? Bang Geng is my biological son after all, he's just a child!"

"I've given up everything for you, what else do you want?"

Qin Huairu sat there sobbing silently, and anyone who saw her aggrieved look would feel pity for her.

But Wang Hongtao remained calm and snorted, "I've already said it before. If it's you, I'll take as much as you want."

"But if you want to take it back to the Jia family, then not even a grain of rice is allowed."

"Bang Geng is a child, yes, but he is not my own. What does he have to do with me?"

"If you feel that you are at a disadvantage by associating with me, then at worst we can just stop associating with each other in the future."

How stupid must a person be to raise someone else's son?

Right in front of me is Shazhu in the yard, and further away is Dorgon. Aren’t these two lessons enough for me to learn?

Moreover, Wang Hongtao dares to guarantee that with Qin Huairu's character, if you give in even a little, she will continue to press forward and gradually encroach on your bottom line.

So Wang Hongtao’s attitude is very clear, he will not give in, do whatever you want!

Qin Huairu felt helpless when she saw Wang Hongtao's stubborn attitude. She knew that this trick of hers was always effective against men.

If the person in front of me was Sha Zhu, he would probably have to empty his own house to please me.

When Qin Huairu heard that he wanted to break off relations with her, she suddenly panicked.

She quickly stood up and hugged Wang Hongtao's arm, using her advantage to rub against him: "Hongtao, don't treat me like this. I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that just now. You said you don't allow me to bring him, so don't bring him. Isn't that enough for me to listen to you?"

Wang Hongtao pulled his arm away.

Qin Huairu, however, held Wang Hongtao tightly and looked at him with tears in her eyes, fearing that if she let go, their relationship would really be severed.

"Sister Hongtao, if you really know you are wrong, please forgive me this time. I will follow your advice and listen to you. Isn't that enough?"

Wang Hongtao smiled knowingly and patted Qin Huairu's fluffy forehead: "As long as you don't think about bringing it home, I won't chase you away."

Then Wang Hongtao pretended to clear the table: "Are you full? If you are, give the rest to Ah Huang."

"Ah Huang is still able to watch the door for me after he's full. What will I get if I take him back to the Jia family? Will I let your mother-in-law scold me more after she's full?"

Qin Huairu had no way to refute this because Jia Zhang was cursing in the room before she came.

Moreover, her mother-in-law not only scolded Wang Hongtao, but also scolded almost everyone in the courtyard. In short, anyone who did not help the Jia family was a conscienceless and ungrateful person.

Isn’t it said that Qin Huairu has superb acting skills?

In just a few seconds, Qin Huairu, knowing that the situation was hopeless, simply lowered her head. When she looked up again, the aggrieved look on her face was gone, and she was full of energy.

"Who said I don't eat? I want to eat!"

She gave a tender rebuke, snatched the dishes and chopsticks, and ran to the kitchen to accompany Qin Jingru.

"Jingru, there's still some left in my bowl, let's split it in half."

Qin Jingru rolled her eyes at Qin Huairu: "I told you not to make trouble for yourself, but you didn't believe me. I wouldn't even give you a chance to exchange for someone like your mother-in-law."

Qin Huairu made an aggrieved expression: "I just wanted to try it, but who knew he was so cruel, not only did he not give me the stick, he even refused to give me the small one."

"If you really take it back, there will be a share for Xiaodang? Do you believe this?"

……

Wang Hongtao shook his head as he could vaguely hear the two sisters’ conversation.

So you can't feed a dog too much, and you can't be too nice to a woman, especially someone like Qin Huairu. If you are nice to her, she will only feel that she can control you, and it will be the least of her worries to take advantage of you.

After washing the dishes, the two sisters spent some time with Wang Hongtao and then left one after another.

Especially Qin Huairu, who took advantage of Qin Jingru's inattention to hug Wang Hongtao tightly, letting him feel her benefits before quickly catching up.

Jia family.

Qin Huairu, who was originally in high spirits, changed her expression in an instant after stepping into the central courtyard. She frowned and looked helpless.

When she pushed the door open, she was greeted by the eager gazes of Bang Geng and Jia Zhang. When they saw that Qin Huairu came back empty-handed, their faces suddenly fell.

Especially Jia Zhang: "That kid surnamed Wang didn't lend any money? What a heartless ungrateful bastard he is. Our Huairu helps me clean up the house everyday, but he won't even lend me some food. He has such a bad conscience!"

"Bang Geng, you should remember all those people in the courtyard who don't help us. When you grow up, they will be old too. Then you can find a chance to take revenge on them!"

Bang Geng rolled his eyes and said, "But grandma, I can't eat enough and I can't grow."

After thinking for a while, Jia Zhang whispered something in Banggeng's ear, and Banggeng nodded repeatedly.
