Chapter 357 Winners and Losers

Qin Huairu was sad, feeling aggrieved but also a little embarrassed.

The emotion was quite good, she acted like a good daughter-in-law who was bullied by her elders but was too embarrassed to explode because the other party was the elder. She played the role quite successfully.

She followed Luo Qiaoyun to the door of the room, watched Luo Qiaoyun walk into the room, make some rustling noises, and then come out.

Luo Qiaoyun counted the stack of money in front of Qin Huairu, and it was estimated that there were about ten bills.

Then he stuffed all the money into Qin Huairu's hands.

After doing all this, Luo Qiaoyun ignored Qin Huairu, who was already having trouble controlling her facial expression, and stared blankly at Jia Zhang.

From the beginning to the end, Luo Qiaoyun never thought that the matter would be over today after she dealt with Qin Huairu. Given Jia Zhang's greed, this matter would not be over unless she bit off a piece of meat from the Yi family today.

Although Luo Qiaoyun had some opinions about Yi Zhonghai, she had to stand up for him when Yi Zhonghai was in a difficult situation.

She was very clear that her interests were aligned with Yi Zhonghai's.

Besides, it wasn't her money that was being spent, so Luo Qiaoyun was naturally willing to be the generous person.

Even though Luo Qiaoyun had just stuffed money into Qin Huairu's pocket, she was still setting a trap.

But her image as a kind-hearted good person deepened Qin Huairu's heart.

Jia Zhang was also embarrassed by Luo Qiaoyun's straightforwardness.

But he still murmured quietly: "In the past, people could get their household registration by simply going to the street office to register, but now they have to go to the countryside to ask for help, and they don't know when it will be done.
Is it possible that our Jia family will be left with nothing during this period of time?"

To be honest, Jia Zhang was very dissatisfied with the short-sighted Qin Huairu, and they had agreed at home that she would be the one to take the lead in everything.

Naturally, she was the one who made the offer, but Qin Huairu got carried away and only talked about the difficulties of her family, but forgot to talk about more important things.

After Jia Zhang finished speaking, she found that the Yi couple ignored her.

So, she also got angry. She said: "Not to mention the extra money my family spent because we didn't have a household registration, what are we going to do in the future?

I don’t know when this matter can be accomplished!

The Jia family is now spending more than they earn. Dongxu's monthly salary is not enough to buy food at the pigeon market.

The Yi family should make up for the shortfall of the Jia family, right?"

"How much?" Luo Qiaoyun asked through gritting her teeth.

"Three, twenty, the lowest is twenty! It's not that I want so much, but the price of pigeons in the market has doubled or tripled, so I want this much." Jia Zhang took a big bite.

"No way, my family is not a bank, I won't let you ask for so much money.

No matter how hard you try, this matter is just that my family's Lao Yi did something wrong with good intentions. He didn't take a penny from your Jia family. As a result, he ended up paying for his own work to do something for your family but found the wrong person.

At worst, you can go to the yard and call everyone over to discuss the matter.

Lao Yi and I have never let down the Jia family over the years." Luo Qiaoyun also refuted word by word.

Seeing that Luo Qiaoyun was once again raising the banner of asking all the neighbors in the courtyard to judge the case, Jia Zhang couldn't help feeling discouraged.

If all the neighbors in the courtyard were called out, the Jia family would definitely be the ones who would be unreasonable.

They are all people who talk without any concern. No one sees the suffering the Jia family has endured over the years because of their lack of household registration, or no one cares.

But some people still remember clearly the kindness that the Yi family had shown to the Jia family.

This is not because of how much the Yi family gave, but because Yi Zhonghai is now more powerful than the Jia family, and he may be whispering about the Yi family in private.

But in person, people generally speak in favor of the strong.

This is human nature!
Jia Zhang was in deep thought, wondering what she had said just now that made the Yi couple surrender?

~ She said that she wanted to find an old man to argue about right and wrong, to make old man Lu unlucky, and to make the Yi family get out of the city...

Although Jia Zhang didn't know what the Yi couple were afraid of, she had an idea in her mind.

So Jia Zhang said coldly: "Okay, Huairu, return the money.

Let's go to the district office tomorrow to seek justice. I heard that old man Lu's son is in the district, and the street office might try to smooth things over.

Let's go find Old Man Lu's son and ask him if he let his father take the gift but not do the job."

"Bang! You dare?" Yi Zhonghai slammed the table angrily.

Yi Zhonghai stood up suddenly, his face was horrified, but he lowered his voice and said: "Jia Zhang, if you want to die, go and hit your head against the wall.

Do you think those officials are like us, quarreling or fighting today and making up tomorrow?

If you really do something like that, I can tell you that Old Man Lu will be in trouble, I will be in trouble, and your Jia family will be in trouble too.

Do you think that if there is no one behind Old Man Lu, his son will be able to become a leader in the district?
Don't you even think about where this place is!
This is the emperor's feet! Forty-nine City."

Jia Zhang was startled, and Qin Huairu was also frightened by Yi Zhonghai's ferocious appearance and hid in the corner.

Yi Zhonghai thought he had explained it clearly enough, but he forgot a saying in the world: The ignorant are fearless.

If you say that someone in the Lu family is a street thug, Jia Zhang might get scared. Or if you say that someone in the Lu family is an official in the police station, Jia Zhang will also be timid.

But he just talked about some big shots, which made Jia Zhangshi feel unreal. She felt that Yi Zhonghai was exaggerating.

So Jia Zhang shrugged her shoulders and whispered: "Starving to death is death, and being picked up by others is also death. At least they provide food in there. It's not like I haven't been there before!
Fifteen, this is the bottom line!

Now my family spends more than four or five yuan every month even on coarse grains and vegetarian dishes.

Bang Geng, Xiao Dang also called you grandpa and grandma. They want to eat meat. Do you have the nerve to watch them starve like that?"

Threats plus emotions, the two are equally matched when put together.

The Yi couple looked at each other again, and Luo Qiaoyun shook her head slightly.

Yi Zhonghai sat down, and then Luo Qiaoyun made the second offer.

Luo Qiaoyun is one dollar, and fifty cents more!

Jia Zhangshi is also one dollar, with a discount of fifty cents!

Finally, Luo Qiaoyun raised the price to eight yuan.

Jia Zhangshi refused to lower the price even to ten yuan!
Finally, Yi Zhonghai made the decision: "Okay, old lady, give her ten dollars.

But, Jia Zhang, we have to make it clear.

When Huairu and the others get their household registration, we'll forget about this matter.

No one is allowed to mention it again."

"Okay!" Jia Zhang agreed readily.

Luo Qiaoyun took out another big black ten from her pocket and handed it to Jia Zhang.

This also shows that Luo Qiaoyun was already prepared.

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left, Luo Qiaoyun said in surprise: "You agreed too readily. It will be troublesome in the future."

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said: "Qin Huairu is anxious to move her household registration in, even if it takes a while, it will only take a few months.

Two more dollars a month is not a big deal.

If this gets out and Old Man Lu hears it, it will be a big deal.

He is a ruthless man, and you never know what he might do!"

……

As soon as Jia Zhang entered the house, she turned to Qin Huairu and stretched out her hand, saying, "Give me the money!"

"Mom!" Qin Huairu said in surprise.
