Chapter 44 Yu Haitang mentions old love again

In this era, most people still want to save face.

For example, Qin Huairu in the Siheyuan.

Qin Huairu took the man's place at work, flirted with him in the factory, and hugged and touched his shoulders.

But after returning to the courtyard, Qin Huairu behaved like a chaste woman and never hung out with the men in the courtyard.

When Jia Dongxu first passed away, the Jia family had no food, and Qin Huairu kept coming to the He family to borrow money and food.

Lou Xiao'e had just married into the Siheyuan courtyard, and He Yuzhu had no shortage of food.

Qin Huairu borrowed a lot of money and food from Lou Xiaoe.

However, He Yuzhu found out about it not long after.

At that time, there were only two people in the family, one big and one small.

Lou Xiao'e didn't cook, and there was no food in the granary. It must have been borrowed by someone.

But Lou Xiao'e didn't say it at first, so He Yuzhu didn't ask.

Later, when He Yuzhu was at home, Qin Huairu borrowed grain again. When she asked Lou Xiao'e, she found out that in just one month, this woman had lent out more than 30 kilograms of grain.

That was a year of famine.

He Yuzhu didn't have the courage to scold this stupid woman, but he began to tighten the food reserves at home.

After a while, Lou Xiao'e discovered that the food was gone.

He Yuzhu pretended to be serious and told Lou Xiao'e with a nervous look that he was going to the pigeon market to exchange tickets.

The atmosphere in the room at that time was like that in a horror movie, with He Yuzhu acting as if he was making arrangements for his final affairs. Lou Xiao'e was so frightened that she burst into tears on the spot and almost died from crying.

After that scare, Lou Xiao'e never dared to lend food to her neighbors again.

After Lou Xiao'e refused to borrow grain twice, Qin Huairu was very sensible and never went to borrow money or grain.

Judging from Qin Huairu's experience, women of this era may appear bold on the outside, but they are actually quite respectable.

In the TV series "Love in the Courtyard", Qin Huairu was so shameless that she could wash Sha Zhu's underwear and other things, but she was spoiled by Sha Zhu himself.

It was also He Yuzhu who knew that Qin Huairu had some dignity and a certain bottom line.

Later, when Qin Huairu used He Yuzhu's name several times in the factory to scare away some men with bad intentions, He Yuzhu never exposed Qin Huairu's disguise and lies.

As I said, don’t break up when things are tough.

Ran Qiuye had no choice but to ask He Yuzhu for help as she didn't know many people in Yanjing.

Her biological father and mother wanted to eat some hometown food, and she only knew a great chef, He Yuzhu, so she had no choice but to come to him.

He Yuzhu returned home, still feeling upset.

He Yuzhu really didn't want to recall anything about Ran Qiuye.

The two of them dated for two months.

He Yuzhu admitted that he was attracted by the girl's beauty at first.

After all, Ran Qiuye was only seventeen years old at the time. She was not only young but also beautiful.

The two had their first date in the park at the end of September, when the temperature in the city was just right for going out for fun.

Ran Qiuye was wearing a blue cloth dress that she had made by herself. Her slender and graceful figure was as charming and attractive as a willow swaying in the wind when she walked.

As an old SP, He Yuzhu simply can't walk anymore.

This can also be regarded as "love that begins with appearance."

For a period of time that followed, in order to win the beauty as soon as possible, He Yuzhu used all the sweet words he could think of in his two lifetimes on Ran Qiuye.

Ran Qiuye, who was simple-minded, couldn't resist these sweet words at all.

In just one week, He Yuzhu successfully broke through Ran Qiuye's psychological defenses and touched her little hand.

Later, Ran Qiuye was coaxed into a state of confusion, and He Yuzhu pressed forward step by step, forcing her defensive bottom line to retreat again and again.

A month later, the cinema and the grove became He Yuzhu's favorite places to take Ran Qiuye. After New Year's Day, Ran Qiuye would be 18 years old and could get married.

He Yuzhu excitedly went to find Aunt Chen to propose marriage. After Aunt Chen came back, she smiled and said that the matter had been settled.

As a result, when He Yuzhu went to meet Ran Qiuye again the next day, he was scolded by Ran Qiuye.

Ran Qiuye cried bitterly at the time and cursed He Yuzhu, saying that he seduced a young widow with children, and that He Yuzhu had old-fashioned ideas and was engaged in speculation.

In a word, Ran Qiuye said that she had chosen the wrong person and wanted to break up with He Yuzhu.

At that time, He Yuzhu had no idea that Ran Qiuye was being instigated and thought that her affair with Chen Jiazhen had been discovered by her.

You have to know that it had not been long since Chen Jiazhen left the old city.

Moreover, He Yuzhu did engage in speculation and profiteering, and used his identity as a chef to do business with some old people from the previous dynasty.

If these things were exposed, He Yuzhu would have no choice but to run away.

In order to avoid causing more trouble, He Yuzhu had to give up his relationship with Ran Qiuye.

Later, He Yuzhu found out the truth about Ran Qiuye's scolding him. It was because after Xu Damao ruined He Yuzhu's second blind date, he got drunk and ran to He Yuzhu's door to show off, which led to the secret being let slip.

He Yuzhu was filled with remorse when he heard this. In a rage and humiliation, he beat Xu Damao up and made him stay in bed for more than two months.

When Xu Damao's father Xu Fugui saw that his son had several broken ribs, he was so angry that he went to call the police.

The police came and asked about the whole story. With the involvement of the manager, they almost arrested Xu Damao.

Ruining a marriage is a serious sin.

The ancients often said that the hatred for killing one’s father is the same as the hatred for stealing one’s wife.

Xu Damao destroyed He Yuzhu's love affairs twice in a row, which is almost the same as the "hatred of having his wife stolen".

Even under such circumstances, He Yuzhu did not kill Xu Damao.

This is the utmost that can be done.

The police did not arrest Xu Damao at that time because He Yuzhu was just dating another girl and they had not yet obtained a marriage certificate, so it could not be considered as destroying the marriage.

Otherwise, Xu Damao would have to go to jail for a few years and would not have been able to marry Yu Li.

"Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, Xu Damao should have been killed during the chaos. It's all my fault for being soft-hearted. I saw that Xu Damao was just a seven or eight-year-old child and couldn't bring myself to kill him."

"After the founding of the country, everything will be stable. I don't have a perfect chance to escape, so this grandson has ruined my good deeds several times."

He Yuzhu felt upset, but couldn't find a place to vent.

Lou Xiao'e went to the Lou family again.

He Yuzhu practiced a few rounds of boxing randomly, and when he got tired, he lay down and fell asleep.

He Yuzhu was so upset that he didn't stay at home for two more days. He helped Ran Qiuye prepare a table of home-cooked meals and then set off again to fly south.

Staying in the old city, He Yuzhu feels depressed every day.

If he stayed a few more days, He Yuzhu was afraid that he would do something wrong.

There are still more than three weeks before the Spring Festival.

Hong Kong has just celebrated Christmas and New Year's Day.

As soon as He Yuzhu came back, he gave gifts to Chen Jiazhen and Shao Anna.

Chen Jiazhen was not interested in these festivals. In fact, she just liked a quiet life, staying at home and waiting for her husband to come home. No matter how lively the streets were outside, she would not go out to see.

However, Chen Jiazhen said that she liked the gift bought by He Yuzhu very much.

On weekdays, Chen Jiazhen stays at home and likes to listen to opera boxes.

This time He Yuzhu bought a color TV.

Listening to operas on TV is much better than listening to operas on a cassette player.

Shao Anna also liked the gift given by He Yuzhu very much, a check for one hundred thousand.
