As soon as the door opened, Jia Zhangshi almost tripped and fell.
She kept listening to the sounds coming from the other side of the house.
Unfortunately, apart from vaguely hearing a few words Lin Yang deliberately said loudly: "Jia Dongxu, making things difficult, washing clothes, shoes," nothing else was heard.
Qin Huairu discovered that Jia Zhangshi was indeed eavesdropping, and she was secretly relieved, but on the surface she still frowned and said, "Mom! What are you doing here!"
Seeing that her daughter-in-law had caught her eavesdropping, Jia Zhangshi was still not embarrassed. She frowned and said, "What am I doing here? I was just worried about you!"
Then she gestured with her mouth towards Lin Yang's direction and asked, "So, what did he say?"
Qin Huairu didn't care about Jia Zhangshi's tone. After closing the door, she nodded slightly and said, "Yangzi agreed to continue renting half of the house to us and will not cause us any more trouble."
"That's great, that's great!" Madam Jia immediately beamed with joy upon hearing this, "I knew everyone had a good impression of you, Huai Ru!"
"But!" Seeing how happy Jia Zhangshi was, Qin Huairu immediately poured her a basin of cold water and said, "Yangzi told me that he won't give us the entire second bedroom like before!"
Since Jia Zhangshi wasn't sleeping there anyway, it had nothing to do with her, so she said indifferently, "If they don't want me to, they don't want me to."
"Then Yoko even asked me to wash his clothes."
This condition was even less important to Jia Zhangshi, since Qin Huairu would be the one to handle things anyway.
"That's all, right? We can agree to these conditions as long as Lin Yang continues to rent the house to us and doesn't make things difficult for Dongxu!" Jia Zhangshi happily prepared to go back to bed.
“There’s one more!” Qin Huairu stared at Jia Zhangshi and said, “Lin Yang also said that you give him a pair of your shoes every six months.”
"What?!?!" Jia Zhangshi's voice suddenly rose as her own interests were at stake: "He actually wants me to give him shoes!!! Impossible!!!"
"Mom!!!" Qin Huairu looked helplessly at her mother-in-law, her tone slightly harsher, "You've made so many shoes, Dongxu can't possibly wear them all. Selling them would be a crime, and it's not good for them to just pile up at home and get moldy!"
"But..." Madam Jia Zhang's face was full of conflict as she tried to say something more.
She was always the one taking advantage of others, and now she was being asked to give away shoes to Lin Yang for nothing; she was extremely unwilling.
Qin Huairu suddenly remembered something Lin Yang had just said, and blurted out, "Mom, you don't want Dongxu to be harassed at work, do you?"
"Alright, alright!" Madam Jia gritted her teeth and said, "It's just a pair of shoes every six months! Give it to him, give it to him!"
As the people in the courtyard gradually drifted off to sleep.
Inside the security department's interrogation room, Sha Zhu was huddled in a chair, trembling with fear.
Although the interrogation room was heated, it was empty except for a single chair; if you suddenly fell asleep, you would definitely catch a cold.
Therefore, Sha Zhu could only sit on the chair with his arms wrapped around himself, listening to the howling wind outside, and cursing Lin Yang incessantly.
