Chapter 605 A strange scene!
"Mother-in-law, I'm already very kind of you to let you have half a bowl of rice. I can't let you enjoy it alone while I and your grandchildren suffer!"
"Besides, the Jia family has fallen into such a state. Don't you have any fault at all?!"
"Why did you scold Sha Zhu for no reason? Now he doesn't want to talk to me anymore!"
"When I asked you to marry Yi Zhonghai, you asked for a sky-high betrothal gift and spoke so harshly, you completely offended Yi Zhonghai. Otherwise, our family would have been with him long ago!"
"Tian Gouzi rented our house, and you're the one who made trouble and drove him away."
"Not long ago, you sold the only valuable sewing machine in your house at a low price. If I were to sell it, I would get at least double the price!"
"You still gave the Sophora japonica flowers to... Humph!"
"So, just bear with it!"
The more Qin Huairu thought about it, the angrier she became. She couldn't help but pinch Jia Zhangshi several times.
Moreover, they specifically target hidden places, which are difficult to detect without a close look.
"Oh! Why is it so difficult for our family?"
Qin Huairu was puzzled and still couldn't figure out the reason.
She thought she had worked hard enough, and not only did she go to the neighborhood committee many times to ask for a job, she also went to the street office several times.
However, every time she got a response, she felt desperate.
"Qin Huairu, your family is rich, so you don't meet our job requirements."
Is my family rich?
I don’t have any money at all. The thief stole it all!
"Director Wang, my family is really broke. We can't even afford to eat. Please have some pity on me!"
Qin Huairu didn't dare to act rashly and could only beg bitterly.
"Qin Huairu, I'm not trying to make things difficult for you. We have clear regulations for arranging jobs. You have to prove that your family is poor first. Otherwise, how could so many poor families in the area be willing to do this?"
"Director Wang, our family is truly impoverished! Look at how starving my son, daughter, and I are because we haven't had enough food for so long!"
"Qin Huairu, stop yelling at me. We've received reports from the public that your family has money but you're still playing it poorly to gain sympathy. In reality, you have at least several hundred dollars in savings!"
"I... am wronged!"
"Go, go, go! If you don't leave, I'll call security!"
There are a lot of poor people these days. Even if your family doesn't have a few hundred dollars in savings, we can't give the job to a morally corrupt person like you!
Qin Huairu was dissatisfied and reported the neighborhood committee's inaction directly to the street office.
The street office took it very seriously and immediately sent people to the courtyard to investigate, but the neighbors said,
"Qin Huairu's family is poor? That's nonsense!"
"Yes! Qin Huairu's family is not poor. Her husband was a fourth-level worker when he was alive, and his monthly salary was more than fifty yuan!"
"I estimate that the Jia family's savings are at least a thousand yuan!"
"Qin Huairu is a terrible person. She actually falsely accused her own aunt of theft!"
"The Jia family are all animals..."
"..."
What's this investigation?!
The result is obvious, Qin Huairu is crying poor and saying that she has money at home but she doesn't use it!
"Qin Huairu, if you dare to make random reports again, don't blame us for being rude!"
The investigator scolded him and then left decisively.
Qin Huairu saw that the neighborhood committee approach was not feasible and had to give up.
Fortunately, he, Banggeng and Xiaodang can receive 55 kilograms of food coupons every month, and they can take out a part of it to exchange for food at the Pigeon Market.
But doing so is very risky, and she has been caught red-handed in Pigeon City several times.
Fortunately, the law enforcement officers saw that she was a woman with two children, so they simply confiscated her food coupons and did not pursue the matter further.
However, many food coupons were confiscated, making the Jia family's already poor life even worse.
Besides, Banggeng is in the period of growth and has a big appetite, so he cries out of hunger every day!
Qin Huairu had no choice but to go to the vegetable market to pick up rotten vegetable leaves to eat.
……
Ever since Jia Zhang was threatened by Qin Huairu by having her mouth pinched and her flesh pinched, she no longer dared to eat too much.
Every time the second aunt came to feed her, she would quickly close her mouth when she felt she had eaten half a bowl of food. It was better to be a little hungry than to be strangled to death.
Tears of grievance fell down quickly!
And under Qin Huairu's persuasion, the remaining half bowl of porridge naturally went into the stomachs of her, Banggeng and Xiaodang.
As time went on, Jia Zhang's health became worse and worse, and she became extremely weak. By the day He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard, she had reached her limit!
……
"Qin Huairu, how could you hit your mother-in-law? She is your elder after all!"
When the second aunt saw Qin Huairu slap Jia Zhang hard, she hurried forward to check what happened.
But when she walked to the bed, she saw a strange scene!
Jia Zhang, who was originally paralyzed on the bed, trembled a few times before suddenly opening her eyes. Then, she stretched out a trembling finger and slowly pointed at Qin Huairu...
