As Sha Zhu spoke, he pulled a few newspapers from the bundle on the table and handed them to Qin Huairu. It wasn't that he didn't want to give her more; it was just that Sha Zhu really couldn't bear to part with them.

Sha Zhu has thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being broke these past few days; it's been too painful, not to mention He Yushui's share as well.

Qin Huairu secretly pursed her lips, thinking, "So stingy, just this much." But on her face, she feigned extreme embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Zhuzi, I really can't accept this. It was all given to you by your father, I really can't accept it."

"Hey, Sister Qin, we're like family, just take it," Sha Zhu said anxiously when he saw Qin Huairu refusing. He grabbed Qin Huairu's hand and stuffed the money into her shirt pocket.

Sha Zhu secretly rejoiced; as expected, his Sister Qin's hands were smooth and soft.

Qin Huairu chatted with Sha Zhu for a while inside the house before reluctantly returning to the Jia family. When Jia Zhangshi saw that Qin Huairu had returned empty-handed, she immediately became anxious.

She immediately launched into a tirade against Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, you jinx! What do you mean? I'm your mother-in-law! Don't you listen to me anymore? Let me tell you, if you don't get the meat back, don't even think about coming back!"

Qin Huairu slowly took out a ten-yuan bill from her pocket and handed it to Jia Zhangshi, saying aggrievedly, "Mom, it's really not that I didn't want to go, it's that Shazhu stopped me and gave me ten yuan. He told me I wasn't allowed to go, Mom, I..."

Hehe, isn't giving this old lady ten yuan a bit too much? I'll keep less for myself next time. Not bad, not bad, another thirty yuan in my little stash.

Jia Zhangshi snatched the money from Qin Huairu's hand and said with a disdainful look, "Are you stupid? Just because I tell you not to go doesn't mean you won't go. Why don't you sneak off later?"

Hearing this, Qin Huairu cursed inwardly, "Hmph, old woman, stubborn as a mule." Qin Huairu ignored Jia Zhangshi and instead started tidying up the house.

MCA was completely unaware of this; they were still busy in their own rooms.
