Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 512 Like waking up from a dream

She is a hardworking, simple but ill-fated woman, raising several children, and the burden of life has made her life very difficult. Recently, for some unknown reason, Qin Huairu's mental state has become extremely bad. Her face, which was originally a little haggard due to the hard work of life, now has a little more fatigue and confusion. Her eyes are often wandering, and she is always absent-minded when doing things, as if something is weighing her down and making her breathless. On this day, the sun gradually set, and the sky was stained with a gorgeous sunset. Chu Tian finished a day's work and walked into the courtyard with a slightly tired body. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Qin Huairu holding a basin of dirty water and walking out in a hurry. Qin Huairu was full of worries and didn't notice Chu Tian coming towards her. When she reacted, it was too late to dodge, and she bumped into Chu Tian directly. The basin of dirty water also tilted instantly and splashed all over the ground, and a lot of it splashed on Chu Tian. "Ouch!" Qin Huairu screamed, and the basin in her hand fell to the ground with a clang. She woke up as if from a dream, and looked at Chu Tian in panic, "Chu Tian, ​​I'm sorry, I... I really didn't mean it." Chu Tian was a little confused by this sudden situation, but when he saw Qin Huairu's panic, the surprise in his heart was instantly replaced by concern. He waved his hand quickly and said, "Sister Qin, are you okay? Why are you so flustered? Did something happen?" Qin Huairu looked at Chu Tian's clothes that were splashed with water, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her voice was a little choked: "Chu Tian, ​​I... I don't know what's wrong with me. I've been so confused lately, and I'm always distracted." Chu Tian felt very sorry to see Qin Huairu so sad. He bent down to pick up the basin, put it aside, and then said: "Sister Qin, don't worry. If you have any troubles, tell me, maybe I can help." Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, and said slowly: "Chu Tian, ​​you say that life is so difficult? The children are growing up day by day, and the expenses are increasing. The money I earn every month is tight and always not enough. In addition, recently, I don’t know what’s wrong with Banggeng. He always talks back to me, which makes me angry..." As she spoke, she couldn’t help wiping away tears. Chu Tian listened to Qin Huairu’s story, his heart full of sympathy. He knew that it was not easy for Qin Huairu to raise several children alone. He comforted her, "Sister Qin, don't be too anxious. Children, when they reach the rebellious period, are prone to talk back to their parents. You have to communicate with him well and understand what he is thinking. As for the money, don't worry too much. Let's take it slowly and we can always find a way." Qin Huairu nodded slightly, wiped her tears with her sleeves, and said, "Chu Tian, ​​I understand what you said, but when it comes to the matter, I can't help but worry. Tell me, what should I do in the future?" Chu Tian thought for a while and said, "Sister Qin, how about this, I heard that our factory is recruiting temporary employees recently. Although the salary is not particularly high, it is at least an extra income. If you are willing, I will ask for you and see if I can arrange it for you. " Qin Huairu's eyes flashed with hope, and she quickly said, "Really? Chu Tian, ​​thank you so much. If I can have a temporary job, it will really help me a lot. " Chu Tian smiled and said, "Sister Qin, why are you being polite to me? We are all from the same courtyard, and it is only right to help each other. Don't be too sad, things will get better. " At this time, the other neighbors in the courtyard heard the noise and gathered around. Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "Qin Huairu, what's wrong with you? Why are you so clumsy?" Sha Zhu also said, "That's right, Qin Huairu, you have to be careful. But Chu Tian, ​​don't take it too seriously. Sister Qin is probably in trouble." Jia Zhang said sarcastically, "Humph, I think she did it on purpose and wanted to ask Chu Tian for help." Qin Huairu's face suddenly turned ugly when she heard it. She was about to refute, but Chu Tian said first, "Jia Zhang, what you said is wrong. Sister Qin has indeed encountered a lot of troubles recently. We are all neighbors, and we should help her more instead of talking about her here. "Yi Zhonghai also nodded and said, "Chu Tian is right. We are all in the same courtyard and should take care of each other. Qin Huairu, if you have any difficulties, just say it, and we will find a solution together." Qin Huairu looked at Chu Tian and Yi Zhonghai gratefully and said, "Thank you, everyone. I am sorry for causing trouble to everyone." Everyone comforted Qin Huairu with one word after another, and the atmosphere gradually eased. Chu Tian looked at everyone and felt deeply moved. Although there were occasional minor frictions in this courtyard, everyone was still very united at critical moments. In the following days, Chu Tian asked around about temporary workers in the factory. After some efforts, he finally won a temporary worker quota for Qin Huairu. After Qin Huairu learned the news, she was so excited that tears filled her eyes, and her gratitude to Chu Tian increased a little. With this temporary job, Qin Huairu's financial pressure was somewhat relieved. Her mental state gradually improved, and a long-lost smile reappeared on her face. After seeing how hard his mother worked, Banggeng gradually became sensible and no longer talked back to Qin Huairu like before. In this process, Chu Tian and Qin Huairu became closer. Qin Huairu treated Chu Tian as her own brother, and Chu Tian sincerely hoped to help Qin Huairu's family overcome difficulties. The courtyard has regained its former peace and harmony, and the relationship between neighbors has become deeper because of this incident. Days passed, and Qin Huairu worked hard in her new job. She knew that this job was hard-won, and she cherished it even more. Chu Tian still went to get off work on time every day, and occasionally helped Qin Huairu take care of the children. On a weekend afternoon, the sun shone warmly in the courtyard. Qin Huairu was drying clothes in the yard when Chu Tian came over and said with a smile, "Sister Qin, you look much better now, so I feel relieved." Qin Huairu looked at Chu Tian gratefully and said, "Chu Tian, ​​thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do. Although this job is a bit hard now, I can earn more money and the children's lives will be better." Chu Tian smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Sister Qin, don't be so polite all the time. I'm also happy to see that you and the children are doing well. By the way, how is Bang Geng recently? Did he not make you angry again?"
