"Oh, then tell me what kind of person Ma Hua is!" Qin Jingru asked excitedly.
"How can I put it? If you really think about it, Ma Hua is no good. His wages are too low. Ma Hua is an apprentice in our factory, and he only earns a dozen yuan a month. Besides, Ma Hua is like Sha Zhu, always getting into fights."
He has a terrible temper! Nobody in the compound likes him! And I heard that whenever your sister goes to get food, Ma Hua always gives her an extra spoonful, tsk tsk tsk," Xu Damao did his best to smear Ma Hua.
What brothers, what friends, none of them are as important as me, Xu Damao, continuing the family line! Qin Huairu is so fertile, Qin Jingru must be just as good!
Qin Jingru frowned. "No way," she thought, "Ma Hua has a bicycle." Qin Jingru began to suspect Xu Damao.
Just as Xu Damao was speaking enthusiastically, a shout came from behind him: "Xu Damao, how dare you!"
Before Xu Damao could react, Lou Xiao'e grabbed his ear. Lou Xiao'e was furious; after all, she was still Xu Damao's wife.
Xu Damao was actually pulling and tugging at a woman right at the entrance of the courtyard alley! Bah! So what? I only went back for one day, and you dare to do this! Thinking of this, Lou Xiao'e was furious and grabbed Xu Damao's ear right there in the alley.
"It hurts, it hurts, E'zi, let me explain!" Xu Damao pleaded desperately.
"Explain? Explain what! Tell me where you hooked up with such a vixen!" Lou Xiao'e glared angrily at Xu Damao.
"I told you to let go, did you hear me! If you don't let go, don't blame me for being impolite!" Xu Damao said angrily. Fortunately, only Qin Jingru saw it now. If others saw it later, where would he put his face?
"Hmph," Lou Xiao'e obediently let go. She didn't want things to get so tense with Xu Damao so soon.
"E'zi, you've misunderstood me. This is Qin Huairu's cousin, she's here for a blind date with Sha Zhu. Think about it, such a pretty girl with Sha Zhu, wouldn't that be a waste of his time?" Xu Damao hurriedly explained. He had absolutely no relation to Qin Jingru.
"Please don't hit me! I didn't see anything! I don't know him. He's the one who stopped me and spoke ill of Sha Zhu to me," Qin Jingru said hurriedly, somewhat frightened by Lou Xiao'e's gaze.
Lou Xiao'e's expression relaxed considerably after hearing their explanation. "Hmph, this woman is clearly no good, dressed so flamboyantly..."
Qin Jingru was wearing a red plaid cotton-padded jacket that she had made herself. Her already pretty face looked even more delicate with the jacket, which made Lou Xiao'e grumble jealously in her heart.
Just as the three of them stood at the entrance of the courtyard house, each with their own ulterior motives, Ma Hua pushed a cart out of the courtyard. When he saw the three of them, he was taken aback. Something was wrong. Why was Lou Xiao'e here?
"Hey, good morning, everyone," Ma Hua said to the three men with a smile.
"Good morning, Brother Ma Hua, what brings you here?" Xu Damao greeted Ma Hua somewhat guiltily. He had just spoken ill of Ma Hua, and he wondered if Ma Hua had heard him.
“Oh, I’m off today, so I’m planning to go buy some things,” Ma Hua explained, adding that he was taking advantage of his day off to buy some vegetable seeds.
"Oh, Comrade Ma Hua, could you please take me with you?" Qin Jingru asked hurriedly, her big, watery eyes looking at Ma Hua pitifully.
