Siheyuan: Silly Zhu Stops Being a Simp and Saves Huairu Instead

Qin Huairu had her eye on He Yuzhu's stewed chicken. Bang Geng had just finished stealing Xu Damao's chicken, but He Yuzhu wouldn't give her so much as a bone. He told the widow to finish washing the dishes first.

Silly Zhu wasn't silly anymore. There was no way he would let them pin the blame for the stolen chicken on him. Xu Damao tried to stir up trouble and got kicked flat on his back, while Jia Zhangshi threw a tantrum and tried to extort money, only to run into the Deaf Old Lady's cane. The whole-courtyard meeting descended into chaos, but He Yuzhu sat off to the side with his tea mug, enjoying the show. He also took the opportunity to pull his younger sister, He Yushui, back from the bleak fate of getting married off alone.

The System issued a mission, saying that Qin Huairu needed saving. Save her? He Yuzhu found the idea laughable. The woman had the vampire duchess Jia Zhangshi and the earl Bang Geng weighing on her head. He was nothing more than a blood slave. But before deciding whether to save her, he could at least let Qin Huairu open her eyes and see for herself who was holding her back and who was driving her toward ruin.

First things first: the coal money had to be pried out of Jia Zhangshi's mouth, and his younger sister couldn't be hurried into a careless marriage. As for how Qin Huairu would live from then on, that depended on whether she was willing to stand up for herself.
