Chapter 294 Qin Huairu comes to the door, using tricks on Lu Banxia

Hearing Wang Feng say this, Qin Jingru nodded, feeling that it made a lot of sense.

Take Lu Banxia for example. Even if Wang Feng saved her twice, if Wang Feng had a face full of pockmarks and was ugly, Lu Banxia would at most give Wang Feng some money, or ask her uncle to find a way to get Wang Feng a better job. She would definitely not like Wang Feng.

"By the way, Brother Wang Feng, we're off tomorrow, Sunday. Should we still invite Lu Banxia over for dinner?"

Wang Feng shook his head: "No need. Lu Banxia has moved into No. 95 Courtyard. There's still a long time ahead of us. Why should we invite her over for dinner every day? She's not anyone to us. We invited her to dinner yesterday because it was too late and it would be difficult for her to cook for herself."

"Okay, I understand."

After washing their feet, the two lay in bed, and Qin Jingru asked, "Brother Wang Feng, we've been married for so long, why hasn't my belly started showing any signs of labor? Could there be something wrong with my body?"

Wang Feng flicked Qin Jingru on the forehead and grinned mischievously, "What are you thinking? We're both perfectly healthy. The reason we haven't reacted yet is probably because the time isn't right, or maybe..."

"Or what?" Qin Jingru asked hurriedly.

"Or maybe we're not exercising enough; we can just do it more often."

As he spoke, Wang Feng pinned Qin Jingru down beneath him.

"ah……!"

......

The next day, early in the morning.

The backyard, Lu Banxia's house.

After Lu Banxia got up and washed up, she steamed some white flour buns in the morning. Just as she was about to eat breakfast, she heard a knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock".

She thought it was Wang Feng or Sister Jingru, so she hurriedly went to open the door. But when she opened the door, she was disappointed. It wasn't Wang Feng or Sister Jingru, but a beautiful mature woman.

However, Lu Banxia still politely asked, "Who are you?"

Qin Huairu smiled slightly and said, "Hello, Miss Banxia. I am Qin Huairu and I live in the middle courtyard. You can call me Sister Qin from now on. Everyone calls me that. I just saw that you have just moved here and may not be used to it yet, so I came to make breakfast for you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Banxia immediately felt a sense of goodwill towards Qin Huairu and said with a smile, "Thank you, Sister Qin. I've already made breakfast."

Qin Huairu glanced at the table and saw a large bowl of steamed buns. She quickly went inside and smiled at Lu Banxia, ​​saying:

"Banxia, ​​you're really amazing! These steamed white flour buns smell so good, they're so white and big."

As soon as Lu Banxia saw Qin Huairu's expression, she knew that Qin Huairu wanted to eat her steamed buns. After all, she hadn't spent half a year in Lu Family Village for nothing.

However, she had a good impression of Qin Huairu and would make her breakfast early in the morning. She was so kind-hearted. In Lujia Village, apart from Third Grandma and Uncle Village Chief, no one else was as kind-hearted as her.

"Sister Qin, have you had breakfast? Why don't you grab something to eat here?"

"Hehe, alright then, Sister Qin, I won't stand on ceremony."

Qin Huairu smiled broadly, acting as if they were old friends, and picked up a steamed bun to eat.

As she ate, she asked, "Banxia, ​​I heard you just started working at the steel rolling mill yesterday. Are you an announcer there? Banxia, ​​being an announcer at the steel rolling mill is a good job."

Lu Banxia ate her steamed bun and nodded: "It's alright, it's all about the same no matter what job you do."

Qin Huairu ate her steamed bun with big bites, smiling as she asked, "Banxia, ​​you've just started working at the factory, how much is your salary?"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Banxia said, "I graduated from a vocational school. I think I was a level 6 clerk with a salary of 43 yuan."

Qin Huairu's eyes widened, and soon she had a plan in mind. She gave Lu Banxia a thumbs up.

"Banxia, ​​you're amazing! You got such a high salary right after starting work at the factory."

Qin Huairu and Lu Banxia chatted casually, and their relationship grew closer. Qin Huairu also changed her way of addressing Lu Banxia from "Banxia Meizi" to "Banxia".

After eating two steamed buns, Qin Huairu was still a little unsatisfied, but she didn't continue eating, after all, one should eat slowly and steadily.

"Banxia, ​​is all the furniture in your room new? I'll go get two buckets of water and wipe down the tables, chairs, and benches for you, so you'll be more comfortable living here."

Lu Banxia quickly waved her hand: "Sister Qin, no need, I can do it myself in a bit."

"It's alright, Banxia. It's Sunday today, so I'm off. I'm just killing time anyway. I'll go get two buckets of water, and we can clean together."

As she spoke, Qin Huairu ignored Lu Banxia's objections, took a bucket from Lu Banxia's house, and went to the pool in the middle courtyard to fetch water.

Watching Qin Huairu's retreating figure, Lu Banxia secretly sighed, "Qin Huairu is someone worth befriending."

Yesterday, the older women in the courtyard fawned over her, and she knew very well that they thought she was someone special and wanted to curry favor with her.

But Qin Huairu is different from other middle-aged women. She came over early in the morning to make breakfast for her, and now she also has to clean up for her. Doing it and talking about it are two completely different things.

After finishing breakfast, Lu Banxia picked up a broom and began sweeping the floor inside the house.

Qin Huairu returned quickly with two buckets of water in her hands, walking briskly. It was clear that Qin Huairu was a skilled worker.

Back at Lu Banxia's house, Qin Huairu acted as if they were old friends, saying:

"Banxia, ​​go find two old cloths. I'll wipe the tables, chairs, benches, and cabinets. You can wipe the windows."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Qin."

Working together, the two quickly gave the house a thorough cleaning, leaving it spotless. Qin Huairu worked very hard today, fetching water three times in total.

This made Lu Banxia a little embarrassed, as she was far inferior to Qin Huairu in housework. Qin Huairu could do at least twice as much work as Lu Banxia.

"Sister Qin, why don't you have lunch at my house today? I still have a pound of pork at home. You worked hard this morning, and I would feel bad if I didn't treat you to a meal."

Qin Huairu smiled and waved her hand: "Banxia, ​​you've already called me Sister Qin. It's not polite for an older sister to treat her to a meal after helping her younger sister clean the house, is it?"

Then, Qin Huairu changed the subject: "But I like chatting with you. How about this, I have some dried black fungus at home. I'll cook it for lunch so you can try my cooking. Let me tell you, my stir-fried black fungus with pork is delicious."

Lu Banxia nodded: "Okay, then I'll try Sister Qin's cooking at noon."
