Siheyuan: Chen Xueru helped me intercept Hu Qin Huairu

Chapter 84 Brother, are you interested in your sister-in-law?

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly when he heard the third aunt's words and said, "What are you thinking about? The other two are Li Xiuzhu's."

The third aunt was startled when she heard this, but then she felt it was natural.

Li Xiuzhu is so good at fishing, there's no way he won't catch anything.

Anyway, as long as it wasn't the small fish among the three fish, her family would be able to eat it for two days.

But just as the third aunt was thinking this, Yan Bugui spoke and reached out to take out the smallest carp.

Third aunt:......

"Here, go clean it up and do it."

"what?"

Yan Bugui was a little dissatisfied when he saw that his mother-in-law was still frozen in place after being shocked. She was not at all calm.

You are the wife of a scholarly family, how can you be so calm and calm even if the mountain collapses?
"Ah what? Go on."

"Li Xiuzhu, let me help you carry the fish in."

Hiss, this old Yan is quite nice.

? ? ?Did I hear wrongly?Is this Lao Yan?My wife?That Yan Bugui who can't afford to go early without profit?

No, it seems that my Lao Yan always wakes up very early, but he still feels like he is reading about feudal superstition.

Wait, wasn’t my fish given to me by Li Xiuzhu?If so, it would make more sense.

Yan Bugui didn't know that he said he would send a fish, but before he could take action, his wife wiped out the day's achievements.

"Li Xiuzhu, you still have two fish. Can you sell one to me?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled and shook his head.

"Sister-in-law, I promised the Sun family's wife before that I would sell her one first after I catch it."

After hearing this, everyone didn't think much about it, but the Qian family's daughter-in-law still said with envy: "It would be nice to live in the same courtyard as Brother Li. I heard from the second aunt before that when you moved, you gave all your things to their house."

Li Xiuzhu laughed when he heard this and said, "Don't you want to marry a wife and change the house to decorate it and have no place to put it, so I gave it to his house directly, which saves me moving out."

"But that happens only once. If you move to the backyard now, I won't have anything to give you."

Hearing this, the Qian family's daughter-in-law hurriedly said: "It's okay if I can't give you anything, but if you catch another fish, you have to leave one for me."

Li Xiuzhu did not agree, but said: "My fish costs [-] cents per catty. If you don't believe it, you can ask Lao Yan and Er Aunt. I have sold it at this price before."

"If you can accept it, if I catch too much next time, you can come to me and buy it."

What he means is that if you can't accept it, then there's no need to speak.

Yan Bugui also testified: "That's right, before Li Xiuzhu and I came back, he sold one for fifty cents per catty, and even the barrel sold for fifteen cents."

Sure enough, when they heard that it was really fifty cents, the Qian family's daughter-in-law and the two Wang family's daughters-in-law who had not spoken yet hesitated.

The price is 1 cents more expensive than outside, which is really inappropriate.

"It can be sold for fifteen dollars. How big is this fish? It can't become a sperm."

Yan Bugui said proudly after hearing this: "What's the point? It's more than 20 kilograms."

"You haven't seen it, but the fish is over one meter long."

Li Xiuzhu blinked. It seemed like he caught this fish by himself, right?Why does it feel like Lao Yan fished it out?
Moreover, the data of this fish is not accurate. Did it eat a fat sea?

Don't worry about it, wait for Yan Bugui to finish.

He just followed the people back to the backyard.

On the way, I met Zheng Hongying washing vegetables, obviously about to cook.

He and Zheng Hongying met on that day and had no contact afterward.

Li Xiuzhu didn't bother him. He knew that he was impulsive that day, and it was understandable that he wanted a chance to change his fate.

Anyway, nothing happened. He is not considered brother Lu Dongxu.

Although it's winter, it hasn't snowed, so the foundation of Li Xiuzhu's house has now been laid.

His new house was pushed forward to a width of five meters, and Qin Huairu had been watching the construction workers at home.

It is now half a meter high and will be topped out in about ten days.

However, you can't move in too soon after the roof is sealed. You also need to seal the walls and wait until the cement is dry and painted with white dust before you can move in.

Don't think that five meters is very wide. In fact, the width of the house is only three meters, and a two-meter-wide bed and a wardrobe can be placed on one side.

The remaining two meters wide is the inner aisle, which is considered a small inner courtyard. On both sides, you can put some coal and firewood, as well as bicycles.

The main reason for adding this aisle is not to affect the lighting of the master bedroom and guest bedroom.

But in this way, the former small woodshed can be inhabited with a little tidying up.

The length didn't change much, so for a while, the activity area in the backyard was reduced by a quarter.

When Qin Huairu saw her man, she didn't care about the construction and hurried over at a trot.

Li Xiuzhu didn't say anything to Qin Huairu first when he saw it, but the feeling of being tight was really good.

When comparing women, he felt that this era was better.

In the future, the little fairy will just sit on the sofa and wait for you to serve her.

When Li Xiuzhu came in, the Sun family's wife was washing vegetables and was stunned when she saw Yan Bugui carrying a bucket into the backyard.

This seems to be Brother Li’s bucket, right?
Li Xiuzhu saw the Sun family's daughter-in-law in a daze and said with a smile: "Sun family's daughter-in-law, didn't you say you wanted to buy a fish last time? I just caught one today and will sell you one."

As Li Xiuzhu spoke, he took the bucket and said to Yan Bugui: "Brother Yan, thank you for your hard work. Let's go fishing again when we have the chance."

As Li Xiuzhu spoke, he took out the grass carp from the bucket.

Due to the cold winter, the large fish bucket cannot be moved, so the grass carp is not active, but it can still be seen that it is still breathing, and it is a live fish.

When the Sun family's daughter-in-law heard this, she nodded quickly and said, "Brother Li, wait a moment, I'll get a basin."

Yan Bugui also said with a smile: "Then I will send it here, and I will go back and cook fish to eat."

Li Xiuzhu then turned to Qin Huairu and said, "Huairu, are we going to make braised pork today? Or should we have fish hot pot?"

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up when she heard this. She had never eaten fish cooked in these two ways.

"You can eat whatever you want, brother. Can I also learn how to eat this fish?"

"Learn, this is very simple, you can learn it once you learn it."

The Sun family's daughter-in-law has already come out with a basin. The basin is not as big as the washbasin. It looks like it should be a basin.

As Li Xiuzhu handed it over, he whispered: "This fish is about three pounds and seventy-eight taels. If I give you a cent less, it will be three pounds and five taels."

"Just give me one dollar and four, and don't tell anyone."

The young daughter-in-law of the Sun family turned red when she heard this, and she didn't dare to look at Li Xiuzhu anymore.

She decided that Brother Li had some thoughts about her, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to take advantage of her family so much.

Subconsciously, he still raised his head and glanced at Qin Huairu, wanting to see if Qin Huairu was angry.

But as soon as he raised his head, he met Qin Huairu's sweet smile. Although he looked at her, there was no bad intention in his eyes.

Zhou Rushui's face turned redder as if he had been caught. He quickly lowered his head, took out the money and hurriedly handed it to Li Xiuzhu.

Li Xiuzhu glanced at the handed over money, was stunned for a moment, and then grabbed Zhou Rushui's retracted hand.

"It's too much. Aren't you a high school student? Why can't you count the money clearly?"

Li Xiuzhu didn't take it seriously, but he was shaken by Zhou Rushui. When Li Xiuzhu let go, he quickly took it back.

He took the money and ran away without saying a word.

Li Xiuzhu looked at his wife's back as she left in a hurry and asked strangely: "What's going on? Is there a dog chasing her? Why is she running so fast?"

"And you didn't say anything today? Why don't you thank me?"

As if she could see that her man really didn't realize what the problem was, Qin Huairu smiled amusedly.

But this smile met the man's scrutinizing gaze, and he stopped laughing immediately.

However, she thought about it and reminded her: "Brother, are you interested in this sister-in-law of the Sun family?"

Li Xiuzhu said "ah"?Don't understand what's wrong.

"How did you tell that I was interested in her?"

Qin Huairu was dumbfounded immediately. Did I see it wrong?

"Brother, are you really interested in her? This is immoral."

Li Xiuzhu was numb.

who I am?where am I?Is this what I just said?

"No, I mean what did I do to make you misunderstand that I am interested in her?"

Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother, you have to pay attention to your words and deeds. Just like the action you did when you grabbed her hand just now, you really shouldn't do it again."

Li Xiuzhu was numb after hearing this. Is it normal for friends to shake hands?Why, why is it at this height?
"Also, you were kind to her. You sold other people's fish for [-] cents, and sold her for [-] cents. You also gave her an extra two or three taels without counting the money. Even a person would think too much."

Li Xiuzhu became even more numb when he heard this. Isn't it right for friends to give some benefits and not care so much?

Not to mention others, Yan Bugui ate fish with them in the afternoon, and he didn't confiscate Yan Bugui's fish money, and Lao Liu didn't confiscate Yan Bugui's wine money.

If that's what he said, he would have to stay away from Yanbu Gui in the future.

What should I do if I am considered gay and think that they have some kind of py transaction?

Just when Li Xiuzhu was complaining in his heart, Qin Huairu suddenly asked: "Brother, are her little hands soft?" Li Xiuzhu didn't pay attention and subconsciously responded: "Soft."

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I felt numb. This girl was plotting against me, right?

Although his explanation was a bit weak, Li Xiuzhu still had the courage to explain: "It's because I have limited knowledge."

"I have seen mostly female soldiers before, including your sister Xueru. I didn't consider the endurance of ordinary girls like you."

As he said this, he thought of Qin Zhaodi.

If this little thing can lead to misunderstanding, it seems that what Qin Zhaodi said about me being dirty and unable to marry anyone else was not said casually.

"Can Zhaodi still get married?"

Qin Huairu sighed helplessly after hearing this and said, "If someone tells me, I will definitely not be able to marry anyone, but fortunately, we are all family members."

Qin Huairu continued: "Actually, I don't mind Zhao Di coming in. I'm just afraid that you won't like me, brother."

Li Xiuzhu nodded when he heard this and said, "I don't like her being so strong, but I still like someone with a thin waist and long legs like you."

Qin Huairu was thoughtful after hearing this.

Just when the two were about to go home, the door of the old lady's house opened.

"Grandson, have you gone fishing?"

Li Xiuzhu rolled his eyes, this old lady was selectively pretending to be deaf.

He corrected me several times and kept calling him grandson.

The key is that this old lady greets you with a smile every time.

They say you can’t hit someone with a smiling face. There’s nothing you can do about them.

Li Xiuzhu said angrily: "You are only 64 now, so you really don't need to be selectively deaf."

"What, my wife can't hear you."

Yeah, I'm crazy too, talking about getting up with someone who is pretending to be asleep.

"Okay, just tell me what's going on."

The old lady then said proudly: "Grandson, my wife wants to eat fish."

Good guy, thank you for not calling me Lao Mo.

"Half a catty for a piece, only half a catty for sale. If you want it, I'll make it and send it over."

"Sure, it's up to you, but my wife wants to eat meat."

Although the old lady is not very rich, she is not very short of money, and her family still has some wealth.

If you can be promoted to a five-guarantee household in two years, you won't be short of money.

Now Li Xiuzhu lost his temper. According to the outside price, the processing fee for half a catty of fish was eight cents. He agreed, so what else could he say.

Forget it, he had eaten in the afternoon anyway, and he wasn't really hungry for fish.

After a while he got a taste of it.

"Okay, I'll send it to you."

Did he earn it? No.

This fish costs one yuan for half a catty, and only 8 yuan for a piece. In terms of weight, it is not as expensive as Quanjude’s roast duck, but his craftsmanship is worth so much.

When he arrived at home, Li Xiuzhu said to the masons who were building a house: "Masters, please go back first. It's getting late. Come back tomorrow."

Li Xiuzhu got the workers and materials from Fang Weiguo.

The money was paid, and the formal procedures were followed. The construction period was 10 days in total, and the work and materials were 100 yuan.

It's considered outsourced.

The main body of the house is made of cement bricks, and the roof is made of cement floor slabs.

After the cement is laid, an extra layer of wooden shelves is built to build tiles to ensure no leakage.

He asked someone to reserve a few extra points for the cement board, and an extra section was added to both sides.

This is not a special feature. I am afraid that it will be knocked out of place in the 76 earthquake.

Now that the project is on track, no one wants to work overtime.

"Okay, then I won't disturb Xiao Li's meal."

"Brothers, after loading the ingredients in your hands, we will leave."

Before dinner, Li Xiuzhu cooked the fish, cut a piece of it and gave it to the old lady, along with a large white steamed bun and egg drop soup.

"Old lady, for your fish, I'll give you a freshly steamed steamed bun and egg drop soup, which will save you the trouble of cooking."

The old lady did not expect an unexpected gain, and was extremely happy when she heard this.

"Madam knows that you are filial to your eldest grandson. Madam is right."

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said: "Then you are wrong. I want money, so give me money."

Hearing this, the old lady laughed and scolded: "You silly monkey, who are you, old lady, that I can misjudge you?"

"Here, it's ready for you."

Li Xiuzhu looked at the piece of ocean and was stunned for a moment, but now it was a piece of ocean that was exchanged for one dollar.

But Li Xiuzhu confiscated it. The paper money will depreciate, but the ocean will become more and more valuable. If it is special money
...Okay, I think too much, the old lady won't live until that time.

"Why don't you give me paper money?"

The old lady's face changed after hearing this. She was really angry this time. She asked with an unhappy look: "What? Now Dayang can't exchange money?"

Li Xiuzhu hesitated for a moment and then said: "The current value of Dayang is not in line with its own value. Dayang will become more and more valuable in the future. It is best not to spend it now."

The old lady looked much better after hearing this, but there was no surprise on her face and she did not take back the silver dollar.

"My wife has lived for decades. She doesn't understand anything. Just take it if you are told to take it."

Then he said worriedly: "But don't be in a hurry to spend it. The silver coins here are different, Madam."

Li Xiuzhu took one look and felt numb immediately. He asked for one or two coins from Guimao.

He spent the past two days classifying all the silver coins by year and style.

I plan to save dozens of coins according to style and year, so I have an idea of ​​the circulation of silver coins.

Among the 20 silver coins of Fengtian Guimao, he didn't even find one, which shows how rare it is in circulation.

"Old lady, do you know the value of this coin?"

The old lady smiled when she heard this.

"My wife has loved money all her life. She may not understand other things, but I understand this coin very well."

"This coin was made when my wife was 18 years old. My husband said that this coin was recycled because it was not recognized. The remaining coins will be valuable in the future."

"Things in this world are always rare and expensive. Even if it is gold, it will be cheap if there is too much of it."

Li Xiuzhu shook his head helplessly when he heard this.

"Old lady, I can't afford your money now. Let's talk about it later."

"Now, just give me a dollar note, or you can tell me a price and I'll see if I accept it."

The old lady didn't expect Li Xiuzhu to be so arrogant. She was a little unhappy when she heard this and said casually: "Then give my wife 100."

100 yuan for such an extremely rare thing is really not expensive. Li Xiuzhu quickly counted out 99 and gave it to the old lady.

However, the old lady took it away and said, "Let me keep this money with you. Every time you give half a catty to my wife for fishing, it will be charged one yuan."

"I'll give you two cents for the steamed buns and soup."

Li Xiuzhu immediately refused. It was not that he refused to send food, but that he refused the staple food and soup that the old lady mentioned.

"It's not necessary. I'll give you the staple food. If you don't accept it, you can keep the 99."

He didn't ask for much, just one dollar.

It's not really about money, it's just that I don't want others to take advantage of me.

Fighting for favor and enmity does not test human nature, nor does it give others a chance to change their human nature.

He also has his own principles and does not give anyone other than Chen Xueru a chance to corrupt him.

When Chen Xueru and Tian Zao came back, Li Xiuzhu was still at the old lady's house. Looking at Qin Huairu's red face, Chen Xueru smiled and asked, "Why are you still blushing? What happened to our man just now?"

It's just that the two of them think so, they are so similar.

Qin Huairu's face turned redder when asked.

"Miss..."

Although Qin Huairu was embarrassed, she did not dare not answer. She said weakly: "I, I... it's my man who always pushes me with a stick when he teaches me how to cook."

"This is not just after cooking, I haven't recovered yet..."

Suddenly the two of them laughed even more happily, and Tian Zao started to beat the bed with laughter.

Seeing Tian Zao laughing at her, Qin Huairu said angrily with a bit of embarrassment: "Second sister, if you can do it, you can come. I can also take the eldest sister to the store."

Tian Zao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said with a wicked smile: "This second sister is not good. The second sister does not have a figure as easy as yours."

Qin Huairu's face turned red and red, and she couldn't get rid of it.

"Eldest sister, look at the second sister, she bullies others."
