"Then what should we do?"
Qin Huairu's face turned pale. The three sons of the Liu family were all stingy and money-grubbing. This was going to be troublesome.
"What are you afraid of? They're just stingy!"
After saying that, Wang Qiang looked at Qin Huairu meaningfully.
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu laughed and scolded, "Get lost! Hurry up and think of a solution. If this gets out of hand, we'll all be in trouble."
"trouble?"
Wang Qiang chuckled, "We don't know who's in trouble yet."
"Don't worry, this time we'll take the initiative."
"Take the initiative? How?"
Qin Huairu looked at Wang Qiang strangely.
"Hehe, this is for you."
Wang Qiang took a small paper packet from his pocket and handed it to Qin Huairu. He then whispered a few words in her ear.
Qin Huairu looked troubled, but having no other choice, she could only nod.
Wang Qiang opened the door, saw that no one was outside, and gestured for Qin Huairu to hurry up and get ready.
Seeing Qin Huairu leave, Wang Qiang closed the door and walked towards the house of his second uncle's family.
He was also carrying a bag of walnut cookies in his hand.
"Is Second Uncle here? I've come to check on him!"
Wang Qiang called out before he even entered the door.
At this time, at Uncle Er's house, Uncle Er was still lying in bed, unable to speak.
Auntie was boiling water, while Liu Guangfu and his two brothers huddled together in their room.
Upon hearing Wang Qiang's voice, Aunt Er put down what she was doing and came over to greet him.
"Oh, it's Wang Qiang. Thank you so much. You came all this way, and even brought some things."
As she spoke, Aunt Er casually took the walnut pastry from Wang Qiang's hand.
Upon hearing something, the three Liu brothers rushed out of the room in unison.
Hello, Uncle Wang.
Although he greeted her, his eyes were fixed on the walnut pastry, and he kept swallowing his saliva.
Although my second uncle's salary is not low, he supports his whole family and rarely gets to eat snacks or similar treats.
"Come and try it, this is..."
Before Wang Qiang could finish speaking, the three brothers started to attack.
Auntie Er originally wanted to save it for later, but it was too late to stop her now, so she had no choice but to cook it.
"Brother Wang Qiang, thank you so much. You have no idea how ashamed I've been to go out since this happened."
"I don't know what's wrong with your second uncle, he can't speak yet. He's been lying here for so long, and you're the only one who's come to see him. As for the others, sigh..."
The second aunt kept rambling on and on.
Wang Qiang gave a casual reply, while the three Liu brothers ate heartily.
"Did you go to the hospital?"
"Not yet, but I don't know how to tell the doctor... and your second uncle is too ashamed to go out."
...
While Wang Qiang was at his second uncle's house, Qin Huairu had already gone home.
As soon as he got home, he was met with sarcastic and insinuating insults from Jia Zhangshi.
"Qin Huairu, what time did you arrive? You haven't cooked yet. Are you trying to starve me to death?"
"You've got a gigolo on the side, huh? He's got your soul stolen? Don't forget you're from the countryside. If you hadn't been with my son, would you even be able to come to the city?"
In fact, she had already eaten dinner, but Jia Zhangshi had a craving. In the past, when conditions were not good, she would just eat whatever was available at night. Now that she had received 200 yuan for free, Jia Zhangshi wanted to enjoy herself.
I asked Qin Huairu to get me some meat for dinner. But I haven't gotten any yet.
In those days, even if you had money, you couldn't buy meat without ration coupons; you either had to pay several times the price to buy it from the black market.
Qin Huairu had no words to express her suffering. She was terrified of her mother-in-law and dared not utter a word in response.
He had no choice but to open the paper package Wang Qiang had given him. Inside was a piece of pig's head meat, weighing more than half a pound, so greasy it made his mouth water.
"Hurry up, it's chopped up, bring it here! Useless thing, you dawdle so slowly when you do something."
Upon seeing the pig's head meat, Jia Zhangshi couldn't stop drooling and hurriedly urged Qin Huairu to hurry up.
"Why!"
Qin Huairu agreed and cut up the pig's head meat. When Banggeng heard there was food, he quickly ran over.
"Grandma, I want to eat too."
"Okay, you can eat with Grandma."
Madam Jia looked at her grandson and had him sit beside her. At that moment, Xiao Dang and Huaihua also ran over, wanting to eat.
However, he was driven away by Jia Zhangshi.
The two children ran crying to Qin Huairu's side.
"Mom, we want to eat meat too."
Looking at her two daughters, Qin Huairu was somewhat moved, but they were so small, and Jia Zhangshi was watching them from the side.
Qin Huairu had no choice but to coax her two daughters: "Sweetie, we won't eat this time. Next time, Mom will take you to eat chicken."
Although the two daughters were very unwilling, they knew that they wouldn't get any meat today.
The two girls pouted and were coaxed to sleep by Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu placed the sliced meat on the table.
Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng didn't even wait for chopsticks; they just grabbed the food with their hands. Their mouths were covered in oil.
Watching them eat, Qin Huairu remembered Wang Qiang's instructions and hurriedly tidied up.
Then he said to Jia Zhangshi, "There's no water left, I'll go boil some."
Just then, as Jia Zhangshi was enjoying her meal, she casually waved her hand.
Qin Huairu went outside and looked at Wang Qiang's house. Seeing that the lights were on, she knew that the matter had been successfully completed.
She fetched a pot of water, and when she returned, Jia Zhangshi and Banggeng had already finished eating.
"Hurry up and tidy up! A woman like you can't even keep a house organized! She's always thinking about running away!"
As Jia Zhangshi spoke, she took the stick and went to sleep.
Qin Huairu finished cleaning up the dishes and lay down as well.
She just couldn't sleep, so she kept listening to the sounds outside.
Just when she thought the Liu brothers wouldn't come.
Upon noticing a shadowy figure at the window, Qin Huairu quickly pretended to be asleep.
"Shall we go in now?"
The Liu brothers looked around and, finding no one nearby, Liu Guangqi asked his two younger brothers.
"Wait a minute, don't you guys find it strange, like something's different about them?"
As Liu Guangfu spoke, he unconsciously shifted his body slightly.
"Yes, I feel thirsty and hot all over!"
Liu Guangtian licked his lips.
"Did you eat too many walnut cookies?"
Just as the three of them were whispering to each other outside Qin Huairu's window.
Suddenly, Qin Huairu's door opened.
The three of them held their breath in fright and stared intently at the doorway.
After waiting for a long time, a figure wearing clothes ran out.
"Is it Qin Huairu?" Liu Guangqi asked.
Because it was too dark, the three people couldn't see who it was, but judging from the figure, it was definitely a woman.
"Really? I didn't see it clearly."
Liu Guangtian wasn't sure if he had seen it or not.
"It should be; the figure looks very similar."
"Let's follow them and see."
Liu Guangfu's words immediately drew a response from his two younger brothers. They knew that coming out at this time meant he must have gone to the toilet.
The three immediately followed and, sure enough, saw the figure enter the public restroom.
The three exchanged glances, all seeing lewd smiles on each other's faces, and felt an even greater heat rising within them.
They ran to the entrance of the women's restroom and were about to go inside.
But unexpectedly, they bumped right into a figure coming out from inside.
