60: Scalp tingling
Winter seemed to have come very early today, and the wind was freezing. When He Yuzhu got up and opened the door, he felt the chill coming from around him, so he quickly went back to the house and put on more clothes.
After being hospitalized once, he is no longer as indifferent as before. Although this is just a dream, he still wants to live his life in this dream.
Besides, it’s still a big loss that I don’t even have a wife now.
Speaking of his wife, He Yuzhu suddenly remembered that he still had something to do last night. After washing up quickly, he ran towards the front yard.
The third uncle gets up early, mainly to take care of the flowers and plants in the courtyard. Don’t underestimate these flowers and plants. For the third uncle, these are also a way to support the family.
No matter in which era, there are some people who particularly like certain flowers and plants. The third uncle likes to plan everything. He uses old bowls and ceramic pots, and plants a lot of orchids in front of the door.
We produce and sell everything from flower fertilizers to our own. What a great job!
You can earn thirty or fifty yuan by growing these flowers and plants every year. All calculations are for this family. Otherwise, depending on the income level of the third uncle's family, even Qin Huairu's family in this compound would not be able to compare.
However, some time ago, Xu Damao warned him about his behavior of growing flowers and plants, but he had no choice but to sell some of them, and now he keeps more than a dozen pots of orchids growing under the eaves.
He Yuzhu rushed to the third uncle's house and saw him holding a showerhead, humming a tune, and watering the flowers. It was obvious that he was in a good mood today.
He Yuzhu naturally knows the reason why the third uncle is in a good mood. If there is a ranking list issued by anyone in this courtyard because they hope that Xu Damao will get into trouble soon, then the third uncle will definitely be on the list.
The third uncle was a scheming master, but he never took any advantage of Xu Damao. Instead, he was taught a lesson by Xu Damao countless times like his grandson.
"Good morning, third uncle!"
"Ouch, silly Zhu! Morning, morning, are you going to work?"
"It's still early to go to work, the third uncle wants to ask you something!"
"Say it, say it!"
It was obvious that the third uncle was in a very good mood today. After saying this, he hummed a little tune again and started working.
"Third uncle, it's like this. Didn't I make an appointment with Teacher Ran some time ago? But because I was sick and hospitalized, the matter fell apart, but Teacher Ran never came to see me, so I just want to drag you to inquire.
I want to help you with something, and I’ll ask Teacher Ran to come over to see if there’s any misunderstanding or something!”
He Yuzhu's tone was very sincere. He really wanted to ask Teacher Ran out to meet him. He always felt that something was wrong here, but he couldn't tell. In fact, he had a vague feeling that someone must be up to something here, maybe it was Qin Huairu.
.
But all Qin Huairu's performance this year was so confusing, so He Yuzhu really didn't understand what went wrong here for a while.
Deep in his heart, he had the impression of Qin Huairu, that is, the Widow Qin in the original novel who liked to take advantage of him and like to talk coquettishly. But these things seemed to have changed in the past year.
Take advantage as an example, I even offered to help, but she refused forcefully. How is this like before?
The same goes for chatting, now she behaves like a big sister next door. After cleaning the floor, she never takes the initiative to stay in her room to cause ambiguity.
With this kind of performance, you said they were plotting something. He Yuzhu thought about it for a while, and he really didn't notice it.
After hearing He Yuzhu's question, the third uncle did not answer him immediately, but slowly watered the flowers. Seeing He Yuzhu still looking at him stupidly, the third uncle also shook his head and sighed.
"Silly Zhu, I think you should live a down-to-earth life. Don't worry about finding a wife. Don't be ignorant of your blessings!"
He Yuzhu was a little confused, what's going on?
"Wait a minute, third uncle, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by not knowing the blessings when you are in the midst of blessings? I am an old bachelor, where is the blessing?"
"Silly Zhu, do you know why Teacher Ran no longer talks to you?"
"Why?"
"That day, Mrs. Jia Zhang explained everything about you two in front of the whole hospital. She is a widow, she doesn't even want her reputation, and you, a grown man, are still hiding it. Isn't that interesting?
Who among the girls in the surrounding streets doesn’t know this? Tell me, you are eating from the bowl and looking into the pot...!"
He Yuzhu didn't listen much to what the third uncle said. He only felt his scalp was numb now, and his mind seemed to have been injected with cryogen, and his whole body felt cold.
Many people know this sentence, but no one involved has ever really understood it.
But at this moment, He Yuzhu felt that he was gradually separated from his identity as a client. Many things that he couldn't figure out suddenly became clear at this moment.
His mind was filled with that night, Qin Huairu's mother-in-law's scolding words, and the strange looks around him. Could it be that this was the reason why everyone misunderstood?
But this doesn’t make sense, does it?
For example, what happened to Teacher Ran happened when she was sick. Also, did Qin Huairu know about this?
What if she knew?
Why still default?
Wait, did she say that day that she could still give birth?
Does Widow Qin still have that thought about herself?
So her mother-in-law spread rumors about the relationship between the two, and she always acquiesced?
He Yuzhu's mind was full of random thoughts at this time. He always felt like he was trapped in an endless loop again. He always felt that something was wrong!
The third uncle saw He Yuzhu being dumbfounded and ignored him. After pouring the water, he was ready to go back to the house.
When He Yuzhu saw this, he quickly shouted to stop.
"Third uncle, wait a moment, wait a moment!"
The third uncle looked back at He Yuzhu, waiting for He Yuzhu's words.
"Third uncle, you have woken me up. Let me tell the truth. Qin Huairu and I are absolutely innocent. Nothing happened between us. I now fully understand that this widow has a lot of disputes in front of her.
, I really understand now!”
The third uncle didn't expect He Yuzhu to say this, and he was immediately curious. He adjusted his glasses and asked curiously.
"You two really have nothing to do with each other?"
Seeing that the third uncle was still doubtful, He Yuzhu suddenly felt a little annoyed. Although he still didn't know if all this was Qin Huairu's fault, seeing the look on the third uncle's face, He Yuzhu really understood that he was returning to the hospital again.
It’s the weird circle of the original plot.
In the original work, it was because He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu were too close that everyone misunderstood the relationship between the two. As a result, no one introduced him to a partner!
But when I first came to this world, I was really prepared for this. Over the past year, I had hardly given any help to Qin Huairu's family, and I had not had any intimate actions with Qin Huairu in public. Qin Huairu was also very knowledgeable.
I have never come to the cafeteria to find myself.
You said this is the case, why do everyone still believe that they have something to do with Qin Huairu?
wrong!
Something feels wrong here. Why does Qin Huairu's mother-in-law slander her daughter-in-law like this?
If she were a normal widow with such a reputation, no one would dare to marry again. This is also in line with her mother-in-law's character. In this way, no man would dare to marry her, and Qin Huairu could raise her and her three children with peace of mind.
Wait, that’s not right either!
When her mother-in-law slandered Qin Huairu, the male protagonist was herself. If Qin Huairu couldn't marry with this method, then no one would dare to marry her, either?
No one dares to marry Qin Huairu, and no one dares to marry him. After waiting for a long time, after a few chats, the two of them are done!
Chapter completed!
