Qin Huairu, who was in a hurry, looked at her mother-in-law who was collecting the soles of her shoes, and saw that the smile on her face was much more than before.

Only then did he take a deep breath and excuse himself that he would work overtime at night and that he would go out.

Jia Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then saw Qin Huairu's face flushed, and after a little thought, he guessed what she wanted to do.

As soon as he thought of his dead son, his anger instantly rushed towards the Heavenly Spirit Gai.

Fortunately, Jia Zhang's family was deeply afraid of Chu Xiangqian, and as soon as he met Qin Huairu's gaze, he was awakened by the warning in this woman's eyes.

——

It's also strange to say, in the past, Jia Zhang's family was famous, and he was lazy if he could.

Even if Qin Huairu is pregnant with a child, she will not share half of the housework.

Even if he picked up his dead son, the shift that worked in the rolling mill was also a grinder in the factory.

It can be seen that this old woman is as lazy as she wants, and she is very selfish.

But since he learned that Qin Huairu had channels to sell copper coins and antiques, Jia Zhang's tried to sell ten, and the copper coins he found from his hometown in the countryside were given to Qin Huairu.

After getting 1 fast and 3 cents, not only did his attitude towards Qin Huairu change instantly, but now he is much more active in accepting soles after work.

Chu Xiangqian still knew Jia Zhang's performance, and after a little thought, he could probably guess that this old pious woman was now looking forward to the future.

In addition, she has been unable to stop taking painkillers, if it really makes trouble, drug addiction alone can make her go to the detention center to cut it off.

The handle was held by Qin Huairu, and Chu Xiangqian, who was behind Qin Huairu, had an excellent relationship with so many units and leaders.

Unless Jia Zhang is really crazy, she won't dare to mess around.

And Jia Zhang, who has died of her son, now has the biggest wish except to watch her grandson grow up, get married, and have a baby, and only money is left to make her change.

In the work of the rolling mill, it is not so easy to raise the salary, at least for two or three years, the salary will always be 18 yuan.

At the same time, it is not so simple to dismiss her.

Since they are active in doing things and grinding foreign workers, they are all 18 yuan, and people like Jia Zhang naturally choose to be lazy.

But selling antiques to Qin Huairu is different.

In addition to salary, most people will definitely put their minds on extra money when they don't have to worry about being fired by the unit.

A dozen copper coins can be sold for 1 yuan 3, some bottles and cans, calligraphy and painting scrolls, as little as 5 cents a piece, and as much as a few yuan.

For Jia Zhang's family, Qin Huairu is no longer a daughter-in-law, but a god of wealth.

To put it bluntly, Jia Zhang's mentality will change, or because the pressure of life is less than before, and life is starting to be better.

People can make money without lack of food, and when there is hope, there were many annoying things in the past, but now they are not called a problem.

——

And Qin Huairu, in order to control Jia Zhang's family, even if Chu Xiangqian didn't come back, he still appraised the antiques that Jia Zhang's got back every ten days and half a month, and then lowered the price and accepted it.

Although it is not certain that all of them are genuine, there are actually very few fakes in this era.

Antiques that really cost are often very cherished antiques.

It is impossible for something of this level to appear in the countryside, and it basically does not appear in the hands of ordinary people.

Moreover, Qin Huairu received antiques from Jia Zhang's hands, and he could also make a difference.

Even if you look at it and buy a fake, it's just a loss of a few cents or a few dollars.

The day before yesterday alone, the dozens of antiques sold to Chu Xiangqian received more than 300 yuan from him.

Moreover, there are two calligraphy and paintings that were sold for more than a dozen yuan, and they were still received from Jia Zhang's hands.

made 8 yuan as soon as he changed hands, and Qin Huairu wished that Jia Zhang's family would go back to his hometown one more time, or go around a lot.

Of course, this has something to do with Chu Xiangqian's failure to continue to suppress the price of antiques at two percent.

——

After Jia Zhang's understanding of Qin Huairu's thoughts, his first reaction was that Chu Xiangqian had returned, and the antiques he sold to Qin Huairu, as well as the antiques that Qin Huairu had received himself, had buyers.

Jia Zhang's family is actually quite shrewd, knowing that the things in Qin Huairu's hands have been pressing, in case Chu Xiangqian doesn't want it, then his family will lose a lot.

The only thing that made Jia Zhang depressed was that Qin Huairu was not wary of her.

When mentioning Chu Xiangqian, he never said his name, but replaced it with 'that person'.

This made Jia Zhang have no reason to want to find Chu Xiangqian directly, and she was really worried that Chu Xiangqian would think too much.

If he felt that he had snooped on his secret, maybe that kid from Chu Xiangqian would deal with him.

After all, Chu Xiangqian dared to be alone, a ruthless man who went into the mountains to hunt tigers, wolves, leopards, bears, blind bears and wild boars in winter.

This kind of person wants to deal with an old woman himself, he doesn't need to find a relationship, he hides in the dark and beats himself with a stick, and he can't find the murderer if he wants to.

Therefore, although Jia Zhang knew that Qin Huairu would do some ugly things with Chu Xiangqian when he went out, he was angry in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it.

On the contrary, he comforted himself and thought that for the sake of money, he would not worry about Qin Huairu.

Of course, Jia Zhang's is not stupid, if she is replaced by a stupid pillar, she will make trouble 100%.

To put it bluntly, Silly Zhu can't give her much benefit.

Eat some leftovers from the cafeteria, where can you compare to real money.

Moreover, Jia Zhang knew that even if he made trouble, there was a high probability that only Qin Huairu would be unlucky, not Chu Xiangqian.

In case Qin Huairu is arrested, but Chu Xiangqian continues to be at ease, needless to say, he is an old woman, and he can't withstand Chu Xiangqian's revenge.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Chu Xiangqian was arrested, the Chu family also has two uncles and two cousins of Chu Xiangqian, and both of his two aunts are salesmen of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Just the revenge of these people, Jia Zhang's heart was furious when he thought about it.

With a sigh, he asked Qin Huairu, "Will you come back at night?" ”

Qin Huairu didn't know if the dog barked just now was what he thought.

After thinking about it, he pulled Jia Zhang to the side and whispered to avoid the two children.

"I don't know how long it will take, but if nothing happens today, I should be able to earn 50 yuan from the antiques I have collected in the past two months."

Anyway, the antique was sold to Chu Xiangqian a few days ago, and now it's better to use this excuse to go out.

Jia Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then became jealous in his heart, but fortunately, Qin Huairu knew too well the virtues of his mother-in-law.

Pretending not to notice her jealous face, she continued to whisper, "If I can really earn 50, it means that I can earn 2 or 30, and Mom, you will also earn 2 or 30." ”

Jia Zhang immediately remembered that in the past two months, he had received a total of 46 yuan from Qin Huairu four times.

Since Qin Huairu needs capital to collect things, the 50 yuan she earns is not a pure 50.

And Jia Zhang's heart had already understood that he went to the countryside to collect copper coins, bottles and cans, and only spent a total of 17 yuan.

Some copper coins are even prostitutes.

It's just an excuse that if I want those copper coins to go back to make shuttlecocks for my granddaughter, there are relatives in my hometown who will give them five or six or ten pieces for nothing.

In other words, he made a net profit of 29 yuan before and after, which was no less than what Qin Huairu earned.

Maybe even more than she earned.

Thinking about it like this, Jia Zhang's mood immediately improved.

But he still said, "When you come back tomorrow morning, you'd better come back with some food." So even if someone sees it, or if there is a sudden meeting of the whole house, the big guy will only think that you went to the pigeon market last night. ”

Going to the pigeon market, not to mention this yard, there are basically no people in other yards who haven't been there.

This kind of secret that everyone has done, naturally no one will be stupid to reveal it.

Qin Huairu laughed and scolded in his heart, in the past, he would definitely be scolding, but now he just got more than 300 yuan, plus the money he earned from selling antiques to Chu Xiangqian before, it was almost a thousand before and after.

With money, people have confidence, and they will slowly become more generous.

Not to mention a few catties of stick noodles, even if it is rice and flour, there are still dozens of catties left in the yard of Mao'er Hutong.

After thinking about it, in order to continue to go out for the night in the future, he pretended to think for a few seconds before he spoke, "I'll try to beg that person to get some two or three catties of white flour back."

If the man was pleased, he might give me a dried salted fish. ”

As soon as Jia Zhangshi heard the dried salted fish, he subconsciously swallowed a few times in his throat, grabbed Qin Huairu's arm, and actually muttered to teach her how to please men.

Qin Huairu, who listened, became more and more red.

At the same time, he also secretly scolded himself for being stupid, if he had known that his mother-in-law was so greedy for money, he would not have been manipulated by her.

Then thinking of Chu Xiangqian teaching himself how to turn around and pinch Chu Xiangqian, Qin Huairu couldn't wait to immediately throw himself into Chu Xiangqian's arms.

A few minutes later, when he heard the sound of a dog barking outside, Qin Huairu, who was already neatly dressed, held back his excitement and pretended to be casual and went out through the middle courtyard and the front yard.

However, when passing by the front yard, I saw that the east wing, the inverted seat room, and the ear room were locked, and there was no light in the house.

Fortunately, when I thought of the small courtyard in Mao'er Hutong, as well as the grain, dried meat, dried fish and supplements in the yard, I immediately felt that my treatment was not bad.

Out of the courtyard, standing at the door and looking around, I saw the big strong red girl suddenly come out of the darkness and nodded to this side.

Qin Huairu was overjoyed in her heart, and hurriedly followed.

But he didn't take a few steps, and soon he lost the figure of Da Zhuang and the red girl.

Chu Xiangqian is not stupid, how could he let two hunting dogs take Qin Huairu all the way to Mao'er Hutong?

If someone sees it, maybe some people will start to be suspicious.

And although Qin Huairu was anxious, she just thought about it and guessed that she only needed to go to Mao'er Hutong.

Ten minutes later, I turned into the alley of the small courtyard, and sure enough, I faintly saw a faint light coming out of the courtyard.

When the door is pushed, it is also opened with a push.

But when she was excited, closed the door, tidied up her dress and hair, and opened the door curtain with anticipation and entered the hall, she saw a woman sitting in Chu Xiangqian's arms.

Tears flowed down her face at once.

Fortunately, after seeing the appearance of the woman who was awakened clearly, Qin Huairu could not care about being sad.

His heart was full of incredulous stammering and said, "Lou, Lou Xiao'e? ”

Lou Xiao'e suddenly felt that her whole person was almost cooked, and she threw herself into Chu Xiangqian's arms in shame and didn't dare to raise her head.

And what Chu Xiangqian needed to do was simple, after picking up Lou Xiao'e, he grabbed Qin Huairu and dragged him into the bedroom.

It didn't take long for the sound of babbling and singing to be heard in the bedroom.

——

More than an hour later, Chu Xiangqian walked out wearing only shorts and a vest, entered the kitchen and began to boil hot water, while he attracted chickadees to star, and then entered the novice village.

Lying in the fountain for ten minutes, he put on his shorts and vest and reappeared in the kitchen, and the water in the pot began to bubble because of the fierce firewood.

Pour the hot water in the pot into a wooden barrel with a diameter of one meter and two in three or two times, boil a pot of cold water, and then look left and right, and directly from the novice village, draw warm water into the wooden barrel.

By the time Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e finished washing, it was already more than 10 o'clock at night.

With the experience of dealing with Chu Xiangqian together, although the two still can't let go, they are also much closer than before.

And Chu Xiangqian is actually right, anyway, the two of them can't deal with Chu Xiangqian alone, and now they deal with him together, which is good for everyone, and Chu Xiangqian can spend more time with the two of them.

Thinking that Chu Xiangqian would sleep here at night, the two women were both embarrassed and faintly happy.

Lying on the bedroom pit, chatting and chatting, I talked about antiques.

Unexpectedly, Lou Xiao'e actually said, "Why don't I go to work at the thrift purchase station too?" ”

Chu Xiangqian naturally didn't care, but Qin Huairu thought a lot, "Xiao'e, do you know antique appraisal?" ”

Lou Xiao'e shook her head, "I know that, anyway, staying at home is sometimes boring, go to work at the thrift purchase station, Sister Qin, when you go out to collect things, I can help you keep an eye on it."

And we both go to work together, and when we come back, we can also go to see him together, so that he doesn't have to run back and forth between the two. ”

As soon as these words came out, Chu Xiangqian and Qin Huairu knew that whatever they were staring at was nonsense, and Lou Xiao'e just wanted to meet Chu Xiangqian as soon as possible after he came back.

And two women together are naturally more attractive than one alone.

Qin Huairu was relieved at this time, as long as Lou Xiao'e did not delay herself in making money, the rest would not be a problem.

For Chu Xiangqian, it was wishing that the two women would run with him and watch him do push-ups together.

After waking up the next day, while the two women were still asleep, they pretended to be the door and walked around.

After buying six sesame baked cakes and half a catty of fried dough sticks and returning to the small yard, I put two bags of 50 catties of flour and four bamboo baskets of chestnuts in the kitchen.

Hang 10 pieces of dried meat of 2 catties and 10 dried salted fish of 5 catties under the eaves of the kitchen.

Half of these things are reserved for the two women to eat, and the other half must be enough for Qin Huairu to help Lou Xiao'e find a relationship and go to work at the thrift purchase station.

Chu Xiangqian went to find Aunt Wang from the neighborhood committee by himself, which was naturally simpler. But doing so will inevitably arouse Aunt Wang's suspicions.

Qin Huairu has no scruples about this.

And Lou Xiao'e has become a worker, in the special period in the future, even if she is unwilling to go to Hong Kong Island, no one should beat her with this identity.

Then I put some fresh Beijing white pears, coconut, as well as dried red dates, preserved peaches, and dried lychees as snacks.
