The next day was the second day of the Lunar New Year.
After two days of leisurely living, many people have started to tighten their belts from now on.
During the Chinese New Year, no matter how poor the family is, they have to try their best to prepare some New Year's goods, have a good meal, or buy new clothes for the little ones, but this kind of spending is stressful.
Qin Huairu gave Jia Dongxu the medicine and told him to take good care of Bang Geng, then rode Xu Damao's bicycle back to her parents' home.
Because she had offended Qin Laoer so badly last time, Qin Huairu gritted her teeth and bought 100 kilograms of cornmeal, 2 kilograms of pork and a chicken.
It’s useless to buy too little, Qin Laoer will probably kick her out directly.
Qin Huairu rode her bicycle towards the outside of the city. Along the way, she still attracted a lot of attention. After all, she had a hundred kilograms of cornmeal on the back seat and pork and chicken hanging on the handlebars. It was obvious that she was going back to her mother's home to visit relatives.
He can buy so many things and ride a bicycle, so he must be a rich man.
Qin Huairu was a little uncomfortable with the gazes from passers-by at first, but gradually began to enjoy this feeling.
Oh, it would be nice to have a bicycle of my own.
Qin Huairu sighed in her heart. She not only liked bicycles, but she also liked the women's bicycle that Chen Jun bought. It would definitely be very face-saving to ride it to work.
It’s a pity that the Jia family can’t come up with that much money. Even if they can save that much, they will spend it on various things.
Thinking of this, Qin Huairu began to feel unbalanced again.
After riding for more than an hour, Qin Huairu arrived at Qinjiazhuang.
"Second Master, are you basking in the sun here?"
"Aunt San didn't go back to her parents' home today."
On the Zhuangtou Canal, several villagers were chatting. Qin Huairu stopped her bicycle and greeted them familiarly.
According to past customs, when these villagers saw her returning to the village, they would definitely come to greet her warmly.
But the atmosphere today was a little strange. Instead of welcoming her warmly, these people looked at her with strange eyes.
Qin Huairu felt a little uncomfortable being stared at. She understood that it must be Qin Laoer who was spreading the glorious deeds of her and Jia Dongxu in the village.
This is normal. Qin Laoer was almost vomited blood because of Jia Dongxu's anger that day. He must have scolded her a lot when he got home.
Qinjiazhuang is not big, and bad news can spread throughout the village on the same day.
"Well, I'm going home to deliver food first. We'll talk later."
Qin Huairu laughed dryly twice, got on her bike and left.
After Qin Huairu walked away, the old man basking in the sun slowly spoke: "The eldest daughter of the second son's family is so unfilial."
"Hey, I don't think it's Qin Huairu's fault. It's her husband's fault. Didn't he see the big bag of food on the back seat of the bicycle?"
"Humph, I knew from the beginning that the boy was not a good person. When he married Qin Huairu, he was reluctant to even give away a cigarette. What a useless thing."
"He's a regular factory worker, much better off than us."
"What a bullshit official job! I heard he's already disabled. Both of his legs are broken. He can't even stand up."
"Ah? So miserable?"
"Yes, I heard it myself."
Qin Huairu was unaware of the villagers' discussions, and she didn't say hello to anyone along the way. She just rode her bike to her doorstep.
The courtyard door was half open, indicating that someone was home. Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment, then shouted inside at the top of her voice: "Dad, Mom, I'm back."
As he said that, he deliberately pushed the other half of the door open to make some noise, and pushed the car inside.
But as soon as she stepped into the yard, Qin Huairu saw a shoe hitting her.
"Get out, your father is not here!"
Qin Huairu turned her head to avoid the shoes and walked in with her head held high.
"Dad, why are you so angry? Look what I brought you."
Qin Huairu patted the back seat of the bicycle and said, "A full 100 kilograms of cornmeal, as well as meat and chicken. I'll make you fried meat and stewed chicken for lunch."
"Hey, Huairu, why did you buy so many things? Does Jia Dongxu know?"
Qin Huairu's mother was much better. She always felt that her daughter was in trouble, so she didn't help her family.
Seeing these grains and meat today further confirms this guess.
"Mom, these... these were all bought by me without telling Dongxu. He can't know." Qin Huairu's eyes turned red when she saw that her mother understood her.
"I know Dad is angry with me, but Dongxu is in charge of the family's money. What can I do? I cried all night after Dad came home that day."
this.......
Qin Laoer was stunned when he saw this scene, and his anger subsided a lot.
If Qin Huairu was really so unfilial, she wouldn't have brought so many things back to her parents' home today.
Obviously, her life in the Jia family was not easy.
"Hey, go pick up my shoes." Qin Laoer took a deep breath and waved at Qin Huairu.
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu happily picked up the shoes and put them on Qin Laoer.
"Where do these things come from?" Qin Laoer pointed at the cornmeal.
Qin Huairu sobbed twice and explained, "I exchanged it for my work position in the factory."
"I know my family is in financial difficulty, so yesterday I asked the third uncle in the courtyard for help. His son, Yan Bugui, works in a machinist's workshop and happened to want to work in the cafeteria, so I switched jobs with him, and the third uncle gave me some money and tickets."
"When the factory starts working on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, I will go to the locksmith workshop to work as a locksmith."
"I didn't dare let Dongxu know about this money. I bought so many things secretly."
"What a piece of shit!"
Qin Lao Er cursed angrily. He was angry that his daughter was being bullied in the Jia family.
In his opinion, if Jia Dongxu earns money to support the family, and his daughter does housework and takes care of the children at home, it would be fine if she endures a little bit of anger.
But now his daughter Qin Huairu is working and earning money, so why is Jia Dongxu still the one in charge?
What's wrong with having a city hukou? A city hukou with a disabled status is also useless.
"My daughter, you have been wronged." Qin Huairu's mother held her hand and expressed her heartache.
I originally thought that my daughter would live a good life after marrying into the city, but the Jia family's situation became worse and worse every year, and this year it has even reached the point where Qin Huairu has to go out to earn money.
"My daughter, why don't you remarry? We have jobs now, we are capable, and we are still young. It won't be difficult to find a man to live with." Qin Huairu's mother felt that Jia Dongxu was useless at such a young age, and he would have a long and hard life in the future.
Qin Huairu looks good and is now a formal worker in the steel rolling mill. Why should she suffer in the Jia family?
It’s better to remarry as soon as possible, find a man with a rich family and live a normal life with him.
"Divorce! Let's get a divorce tomorrow!" Qin Laoer was also very moved when he heard this. He had always thought that Jia Dongxu was not a good person. If he didn't live in the city and had a job, he would have married Qin Huairu to Wang the butcher from the next village.
