Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 859 Stealing Water

So when they were washing the dishes, the Jia family found that there was no water in the house.

Because Qin Huairu was pregnant and felt uncomfortable, she was unwilling to bother with it any more. After Jia Dongxu finished eating, he lay back on the bed. The stick was still small, so it was impossible for him to carry water, so Jia Zhang's It would be even more impossible to go all the way to the well over the alley to fetch water.

Mrs. Jia Zhang originally wanted to urge Qin Huairu to go, but seeing that her daughter-in-law's face was a little pale, it wasn't like she was pretending, she really seemed to be uncomfortable. She was worried about the grandson in her belly, so she didn't force her to go, but she just said He couldn't sleep and muttered a few words: "It's true that wild boar can't eat fine chaff. You are your precious one all day long. You don't feel well even if you have fish soup..."

Qin Huairu turned her head and pretended not to hear what her mother-in-law said.

Mrs. Jia Zhang muttered a few words, but when she saw that no one paid attention to her, and instead caused her son's dissatisfaction, she reluctantly shut up.

Carrying a basin of dirty bowls out the door, Jia Zhang looked around while cursing, wondering if she could "borrow" some water.

At this moment, she saw the bucket under the public water pipe, which was full of water.

Mrs. Jia Zhang's eyes lit up, and after looking around for a while, she made sure that there was no one in the yard, and then she quickly ran to the vegetable sink.

After washing her own bowl, Jia Zhang rolled her eyes when she saw half of the water was left. Then she turned around and went back to the house to take out her own bucket. She poured the other half of the water into her own bucket and was happy. He returned home desperately.

At this time, Xu Damao was chatting with Lou Xiao'e in the room. As they talked, Lou Xiao'e remembered what she saw today about the stick catching fish.

She said with some sigh: "Don't make fun of others anymore. He is still a child. Why do you care about him?"

Xu Damao wrinkled his nose and turned to look at Lou Xiao'e with a puzzled expression. He didn't know why his wife suddenly mentioned the stick.

"What do you think I'm doing? I'm talking to you, did you hear me?" Lou Xiao'e felt a little embarrassed and threw the handkerchief at Xu Damao.

Xu Damao grabbed the handkerchief and replied perfunctorily: "I heard it, I heard it."

However, Xu Damao did not admit that he had played tricks on Bangge. He looked up at his wife and said with some suspicion: "Did you listen to what someone said?"

Lou Xiao'e's expression changed, and after a moment, she twisted uncomfortably, trying to avoid Xu Damao's sight, and said: "No... I haven't heard anyone say that it's not easy to look at Sister-in-law Jia. We can’t do much to help, but we can’t bully others either.”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Damao immediately grasped the key point. He licked the root of his teeth with his tongue. What a Jia family. This was not enough advantage, and he came to deceive his wife again.

Xu Damao looked up at the sympathy on his wife's face. No need to guess, he knew what Qin Huairu said. It was nothing more than selling her misery to gain sympathy, and he didn't know why she had so many difficulties all day long.

Compared with Qin Huairu, my daughter-in-law is definitely not considerate enough. She even said that she would not be allowed to get too close to the Jia family. She was worried that she would be plotted by the Jia family. After just a few days, Qin Huairu gave her a thumbs up. Fooled.

Xu Damao had no intention of arguing with Lou Xiao'e about this. After all, he couldn't tell her clearly. It was just a waste of effort. Maybe the couple would quarrel and Qin Huairu's wish would finally be fulfilled.

Therefore, Xu Damao just looked at Lou Xiao'e with a serious face and warned straight to the point: "There are no good people in the Jia family. You should just stay away from them."

Lou Xiao'e didn't know whether she heard it or not, but she just hummed, lowered her head and put up her scarf.

At this time, nothing happened to the Lou family. No matter how useless Lou's father was, he was still a director of the factory and could speak up. Therefore, Xu Damao still wanted to coax Lou Xiao'e. Seeing that she was unhappy, he hurriedly coaxed her. . After finally making people happy, Xu Damao breathed a sigh of relief. This woman was getting more and more angry now.

In order to avoid a dispute, Xu Damao could avoid the topic of the Jia family, but unexpectedly, as the couple was talking, they inexplicably talked about fish. Then when they talked about fish, Lou Xiaoe remembered what she had seen today.

She looked at Xu Damao and said with some curiosity: "Where did that kid Bangge buy the fish? The Chinese New Year is coming soon, can we also buy a few? Although this fish is not a precious thing, it is good for the Chinese New Year. If I can bring a few fish back to my parents’ home, it will be considered a gift.”

When this scene happened, Xu Damao was surprised: "Fish? Where did the stick fish come from? Did you see it wrong?"

Upon hearing that Xu Damao suspected that he had seen wrongly, Lou Xiaoe was unwilling at the time and retorted directly: "What are my eyes for? How could I see wrongly? I saw clearly. When Bangge took the child home I was holding a fish in my arms, and the fish looked quite small."

As soon as she said this, Xu Damao became interested: "You said you saw Banggeng carrying a fish back today?"

"That's not."

After getting a positive statement, Xu Damao then asked: "How did he bring him back?"

"It was brought back wrapped in clothes. Then I say that this kid Bangge is quite smart. He is not a big man, but he can still think of wrapping the fish in clothes and bringing it back."

Xu Damao rolled his eyes and thought in his heart that the fish was stolen by Banggeng. But thinking about the quarrel with Lou Xiao'e over Qin Huairu just now, he still shut up. Forget it, he wanted to say that the fish was stolen by Banggeng. , this woman is definitely going to quarrel with herself again.

Seeing that Xu Damao didn't reply, Lou Xiao'e hit him with her elbow: "Hey, talk!"

"Say what?"

Lou Xiao'e frowned: "What else can I say? I said I would bring some fish back to my parents' house in a few days. Did you hear that?"

"I heard it, I heard it. Fish may not be easy to find at this time. How about this? I'll find a way to get two chickens, and let's buy some pastries..."

Before Xu Damao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lou Xiao'e: "Pastry, pastry again, are my parents in need of pastries? Every time I talk about going back to my parents' home, they always say buying pastries."

"Okay, okay, let's not bring cakes, hairtail, hairtail, hairtail, okay? I'll find a way tomorrow."

After receiving Xu Damao's response, Lou Xiao'e finally calmed down, looked at the time, and continued: "It's getting late, it will get dark soon, should we make dinner?"

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and asked again: "By the way, our house is out of water. Have you gone to fetch water today?"

Xu Damao: "I carried it, I carried it, I just carried a big bucket."

"Where is it?" Lou Xiao'e turned to look at the door, but did not see her bucket.
