Chapter 20 Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred

"Oh, Li Zhiguo is such a shameless man. He not only deceived Qin Huairu, but also deceived her parents."

"The Qin family only received five dollars as a gift from Li Zhiguo, so how much will they have to pay?"

"There's a bad guy in our hospital, a big liar, who has brought a bad atmosphere..."

The residents in the courtyard beat their chests and stamped their feet, openly criticizing but in fact extremely envious.

All eyes turned to the guest Jia Dongxu.

"Why are you looking at me? Li Zhiguo is a bad guy. Go and see him."

Jia Dongxu couldn't bear it anymore and ran back home.

"Dongxu, you have to be open-minded. Qin Huairu is just a country girl. How much wealth can her family have?
Sooner or later, the Li family will have to live a hard life."

Jia Zhang was afraid that her son would get angry and something bad would happen, so she hurriedly followed him back to the house.

"Mom, Li Zhiguo is like that, why would Qin Huairu choose him?"

Jia Dongxu yelled, there was no way to reason with him.

"Dongxu, just be patient, your new blind date will be here this weekend.

When you guys are successful, we will buy a sewing machine and make Qin Huairu regret it."

Jia Zhang was even more distressed because the good things Li Zhiguo had cheated back originally belonged to her old Jia family.

……

Qin Huairu heated up the delicious dishes she brought home and stewed half a chicken.

Then I quickly cleaned the house and did the laundry.

As for Li Zhiguo, he found an old newspaper and was reading it with great interest!

"Brother, come and wash your hands. It's time to eat."

Li Zhiguo stretched, went over to wash his hands in the basin on the laundry rack, then grabbed a piece of white flour and took a big bite at the table. It was delicious.

There are three meat dishes and a bowl of chicken soup on the table. This is how life should be.

"Huai Ru, go get another bowl of chicken soup and drink it too."

"No, I don't like chicken soup."

Qin Huairu picked up a piece of flour and broke off only half of it.

"Then you eat the chicken. I like soup."

Li Zhiguo had no intention of abusing others, and the chicken belonged to his father-in-law.

"Yeah! Brother, you are so nice to me."

Qin Huairu picked up a piece of meat and put it in Li Zhiguo's bowl.

The two of them didn't close the door when they had dinner today, and they ate and drank openly.

"Huai Ru, I'm going to go out for a walk to help digest the food. You take care of the cleanup and heat up the bath water."

He has not been in the courtyard these days and wants to go out to see if there is any new gossip.

After everyone left, Qin Huairu ate the remaining seasonings on the plate. Seeing that there was still some chicken soup left in her husband's bowl, she took it and drank it.

"Hey, Qin Huairu, why are you just eating the leftovers?"

Second Aunt happened to arrive at the door, and after seeing this scene, she felt that her life at home was actually better.

"Aunt, it's okay. I have some chicken soup left and I'm afraid it will be wasted."

Qin Huairu wiped her mouth with a smile on her face.

"No, you can't let Li Zhiguo abuse you. Besides, these are brought back from your home."

The second aunt came into the room and kept shaking her head as she looked at him.

Qin Huairu changed the subject and asked, "Second Aunt, what can I do for you?"

"Look at me, I almost forgot about the business."

The second aunt explained: "It's like this..."

But Li Zhiguo went out and headed towards the central courtyard, but he was almost hit by someone.

"Brother Li, I'm sorry, I ran too fast."

In front of me was a little girl about ten years old with two braids.

"It's Fengling. Run slower next time and don't fall."

Li Zhiguo wanted to give the girl a head pat, but he finally held back because the girl was Xu Damao's sister.

"Thank you, Brother Li!"

After saying this, Xu Fengling went home. She hadn't had dinner yet.

Xu Damao just came out of the house to pour water and saw his sister talking to Li Zhiguo. This was unbearable. "Feng Ling, what did you say to that boy? He is a mean person. Don't fall into his trap."

Xu Damao didn't consider himself a good person, but when it came to shamelessness, he was inferior to Li Zhiguo.

"Brother, don't talk nonsense. Brother Li is a very good person."

Xu Fengling said this and ran back to the house.

"No, sister, Li Zhiguo is the best at lying. You should never talk to him again."

Xu Damao was upset and quickly chased after his sister to explain everything to her.

"Mrs. Chen, have you eaten?"

When Li Zhiguo arrived at the Intermediate Court, he greeted the middle-aged women he saw, hoping to hear some gossip.

"I've eaten. Li Zhiguo, you should go find Jia Zhang. She has a lot of shoes, but I don't have any new shoes..."

Before Mrs. Chen could finish her words, she moved her feet and hurried back to the house.

"What's going on? Why do you seem a little scared of me?"

Li Zhiguo touched his head. Could it be that someone was slandering him during his absence?
It was also a coincidence that Jia Zhang just happened to lift the door curtain and come out of the house.

As soon as he saw Li Zhiguo, he stopped walking.

"Jia Zhang is busy."

Li Zhiguo took the initiative to say hello.

Jia Zhang gritted her teeth, put the dishes in the sink, and walked over.

"Li Zhiguo, you just want a pair of new shoes, I'll give them to you.

My Dongxu is going on a blind date this weekend, please stop messing with it."

Jia Zhang lowered her voice. She was willing to risk everything for her son.

Li Zhiguo was stunned when he heard this.

When he came to his senses, "Ms. Jia Zhang, I've already said that Dongxu and I are brothers, so I'm saying that I intercepted Qin Huairu for his own good."

Jia Zhang was stunned. One should not be so shameless.

"Well, give me the shoes. I trust your craftsmanship."

Li Zhiguo couldn't miss this opportunity.

"You wait."

Jia Zhang turned around, gritting her teeth, and went back to get her shoes.

When Jia Dongxu saw his mother taking the shoes out, he quickly ran to the window to look out and was instantly struck by lightning.

I actually handed the shoes to Li Zhiguo.

Jia Dongxu almost fainted, feeling that the world was full of malice towards him.

In the yard, Li Zhiguo took the shoes, looked at them inside and out, and measured the size.

"Yes, Jia Zhang, your craftsmanship is really amazing. I accept these shoes."

Li Zhiguo had the illusion that the sun was rising from the west.

"Li Zhiguo, what about Dongxu's next blind date?"

Jia Zhang broke her teeth and swallowed them.

"Don't worry, I can't possibly intercept you twice. I'm going for a walk, you just keep busy!"

Li Zhiguo held his cloth shoes and walked towards the front yard with his hands behind his back.

"Bah! This is shameless!"

After the people walked away, Jia Zhang burst into tears.

At this time, Jia Dongxu couldn't help but ran out of the house, "Mom, why did you give shoes to Li Zhiguo?"

"Dongxu, Mom is doing this for your own good! Li Zhiguo threatened me that if I don't give him the shoes, he will ruin your next blind date.

We are the only ones left in our family, a widow and an orphan. If he keeps staring at you, how can you still find a wife?"

As Jia Zhang spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Oh my god! We can't be bullied like this. I'm going to find an old man, find the street ..."

Jia Dongxu didn't dare to go find Li Zhiguo himself because he couldn't beat him.

"Dongxu, bear with it for now, your blind date is more important."

Jia Zhang tried to persuade her son to stop, but she couldn't help crying first.
