Hu Hongde quickly walked over and took the basin from the woman's hand, while introducing her to everyone, "My neighbor, because I eat at the stove and don't cook, so these little ones are cooked by Xiuzhen!"
Han Qing walked over to look at Hu Hongde's bowl. Inside was corn porridge stewed in broth, with large chunks of meat and sweet potatoes visible. "That must be two or three pounds of meat for this meal, right? You're really generous with your dog!"
The woman named Xiuzhen was very shy. She nodded slightly to everyone as a greeting, then fed the dogs quickly. After distributing the food to the five big dogs, she turned around and was about to leave.
Hu Hongde reached out to stop her, "Xiuzhen, do you have any extra quilts at home? Lend them to me. I have guests here!"
Xiuzhen lowered her head and shyly agreed, then walked out of the yard and helped Hu Hongde close the door.
Han Qing listened to Xiuzhen walk away, then smiled and said to Hu Hongde: "You have a problem with your vision, kid. You don't want to find such a gentle woman, but you have to find a tigress. What are you looking for?"
Hu Hongde smiled sheepishly: "Actually, I also think Xiuzhen is good, but she is a young widow, and it would be bad for her reputation if she were to tell others about it!"
Su Nian thought for a moment and said, "I think when it comes to marriage, what you think is most important is what you think is good. I saw that woman named Xiuzhen feeds the dog very carefully and is willing to put in some ingredients. If you love dogs so much, your partner's attitude towards dogs is very important!"
After hearing this, Hu Hongde became thoughtful.
At this time, the sun was about to set and the small courtyard was gradually getting dark. Just when Hu Hongde invited everyone to come in and sit down, the door of the courtyard was knocked again.
This time it was Wang Xiaojuan who came. Her face no longer had the sharpness from the afternoon and became much calmer. Everyone guessed that she was probably here to ask for a reconciliation, so Su Nian pulled Chu Beichen to avoid them, but was stopped by Han Qing.
"You don't think highly of them, so why do you want to help that woman?" Han Qing said.
Su Nian thought so too. Wang Xiaojuan was very stingy. If she really married Hu Hongde, I'm afraid that both Old Hu and his dog would have a hard time. It would be better for her to help Old Hu ruin this marriage.
"What are you doing here?" Hu Hongde stopped Wang Xiaojuan from coming in.
Wang Xiaojuan was very angry after being kicked out of the box by Hu Hongde, but after returning to the dormitory, she changed her mind and was overwhelmed by many practical problems. She was not young, her income was average, and she didn't have a house. After thinking about it, she felt that it was not worthwhile to break up with Hu Hongde now.
That's why she swallowed her anger and came back to Hu Hongde to ask for reconciliation. "Old Hu, I was wrong. I'm here to apologize to you. Please forgive me, okay?"
Hu Hongde reached out and pushed her, "You'd better leave. We're not suitable for each other!"
Wang Xiaojuan reached out to grab the Hu family's door and lowered her voice, "Why is it inappropriate? I think it's fine!"
Hu Hongde pointed at Su Nian and Chu Beichen and said, "I have a lot of friends. When they come, I will treat them well. Will you be willing to do that?"
Wang Xiaojuan glanced reluctantly at the people in the yard. She really couldn't understand. The money was earned by Hu Hongde with hard work, so why was he willing to waste it on these people like a lavish boy?
Wang Xiaojuan showed a pitiful expression: "It's okay for you to entertain friends, but you have to do it within your means!"
Hu Hongde looked at her expression and knew that this woman did not like him eating and drinking with his friends.
