Chapter 1616

"Hungry!" Nini answered honestly. Since Zheng Jie went out after making breakfast in the morning, she hadn't returned home. Zhao Da and Nini had eaten some leftovers at noon and had been hungry until now.

"Then Uncle will cook for you." Saying this, Zhao Desan got up, went to the kitchen familiarly, took some ingredients from the refrigerator, and started cooking. Plus some food he brought today, it didn't take long before he made a simple meal and served it on the table in the room.

During this period, Zhao Da remained silent. He looked at Zhao Desan busy with a look of gratitude, and tears welled up in his eyes. Zhao Desan set the bowls and chopsticks, pushed Zhao Da to the table, let Nini eat first, and then asked Zhao Da, "Do you want to have two drinks? If you want to drink, I will accompany you for two drinks!"

Zhao Da had been under great pressure, suffering from having no way to vent and no one to drink with. Seeing Zhao Desan's proposal, he nodded immediately and said, "Good, Comrade Xiao Zhao, then let's have a heart-to-heart drink."

After three rounds of drinking and five flavors of dishes, Nini had already eaten her fill and went to the side to do her homework obediently. Zhao Da, while drinking, recounted the hardships Zheng Jie had paid for this family over the years. When he spoke to the point of emotion, he not only covered his face with tears. Zhao Desan acted as a listener today, constantly picking vegetables for Zhao Da. After recounting the bitter past, Zhao Da raised the wine glass in his hand, drank it all, and said a sentence to Zhao Desan that made him dumbfounded...

After Zhao Da poured a glass of wine into his throat, he burped and said to Zhao Desan, half-drunk and half-sober, "Brother, you and your sister-in-law already have that kind of relationship. I know you also like your sister-in-law, and your sister-in-law also likes you. You are a man of temperament, and even more a man with a good heart. So... so old brother wants to ask you one thing."

Zhao Desan originally intended to drink a glass of wine with him, but when he heard him say this, he stopped and asked, "What do you have to say? I, Zhao Desan, don't have anything else, but I am definitely a man. Being loyal in doing things is no problem."

"Good, worthy of being a man, I am definitely not the kind of person who makes things difficult! This matter, I guarantee you, Comrade Xiao Zhao, can handle it!" Zhao Da, although looking a bit shaky, had a very clear logical thinking.

Zhao Desan seemed to realize that the matter Zhao Da wanted to say was not normal, but he had already pushed his wife into his arms, what else could he say that was unusual? This made Zhao Desan a bit puzzled, so he didn't say anything, but looked at Zhao Da silently.

Zhao Da straightened his body, hooked Zhao Desan's shoulder, patted it twice, and then continued, "Brother, your sister-in-law is a good woman. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also virtuous and manages the household. If it weren't for her, old brother, I really wouldn't want to live!"

Zhao Da's words were not straightforward, so Zhao Desan simply asked straightforwardly, "Brother Zhao, if you want to be a man, just say what you want to say!"

"Good, you kid are straightforward!" Zhao Da said unyieldingly, "Then I'll say it straightforwardly. Old brother, I think if your sister-in-law can't find a job in the future, let your sister-in-law serve you, and you pay her a salary, how about that?"

Damn it! You are treating Zheng Jie as a money-making tool! Hearing Zhao Da's request, Zhao Desan didn't know why, but for a while, his blood surged, and he really wanted to punch him a few times. But looking at Zhao Da sitting in the wheelchair, he was very pitiful, knowing that he was forced to think of such a method. If it were another man, Zhao Desan would have beaten him to the ground! For a while, he was so angry that his face tightened, he glared at Zhao Da fiercely and said, "What do you take sister-in-law for! Even without you saying it, I, Zhao Desan, can't help with other things, but I definitely won't stand by and watch! Although I also earn a dead salary, at least I have managed coal mines in Yuyang City for a few years, and I still have some money. It's no problem to support you! I don't allow you to treat sister-in-law as a money-making tool in your family!"

Seeing Zhao Desan so angry because of his cowardly idea, Zhao Da picked up a glass of wine, tilted his head, poured it into his throat, and said extremely painfully, "Sigh! I am really a useless person! I sometimes want to let your sister-in-law take the child and leave! But she... she just won't! I'm afraid she's too tired as a woman, and there's really no way, so I thought of you. I know you are a man with a good heart, but old brother, I can't just spend your money for nothing!"

Zhao Desan gritted his teeth and said, "Such a beautiful and capable woman, for the sake of this family, can be said to have broken her heart. You think like this, it really makes me too disappointed!"

"You are right about this sentence. Your sister-in-law is definitely the most ideal woman, but... but these years, I really have failed her... especially now, I really have no face to face her..." Saying this, Zhao Da touched the corner of his eye with his hand. It seemed that he had really reached the point of sadness. He twitched, and then continued, "I not only added a burden to her in life, she has been working hard for this family, for a useless person like me, but more importantly, she is only in her early thirties this year, a woman in her prime. Look at me now, I can't even give her the most basic enjoyment between husband and wife. This... really makes me speechless... So... so I want your sister-in-law to serve you..." Zhao Da's words were true, containing his deep affection for Zheng Jie.

Zhao Desan drank the wine in the cup, blinked, seemed a bit understanding, and a bit lost, or perhaps under the influence of alcohol, he had the courage. He put the cup on the table and said, "What? Could it be that big brother, you want me to marry sister-in-law?"

Zhao Da heard Zhao Desan's words, laughed 'haha' twice for a while, then shook his head, glanced at his daughter who was seriously doing homework aside, lowered his voice and said, "It's not to let you marry your sister-in-law, it's just to let your sister-in-law serve you, let her have that kind of husband and wife life without name or status, that's fine. Brother, look, how about it?"

Zhao Desan immediately waved his hands at Zhao Da and said, "Brother Zhao, you are making things difficult for me. Occasionally satisfying sister-in-law is fine, but if I satisfy sister-in-law often, I really can't do it." The reason why Zhao Desan didn't want to be Zheng Jie's secret 'husband' was because he didn't want to release all his energy on one woman. Just like eating, he also had to change his taste often, right?

Zhao Da saw that Zhao Desan's reaction was a bit intense, so he asked a bit puzzled, "What? Didn't I hear your sister-in-law say you are quite powerful? Could it be that your sister-in-law lied to me, and you are also young and useless?"

Zhao Desan was laughed at by Zhao Da's question. He understood what Zhao Da meant, so he raised his head and chest and said, "You think I am you!"

While the two men were bargaining and pushing Zheng Jie back and forth, Zheng Jie opened the door and came in. Seeing Zhao Desan came to the house and was already eating and drinking with Zhao Da, perhaps because he failed to keep her job, Zheng Jie just gave a faint bitter smile when she saw Zhao Desan, didn't say anything, and walked into the bedroom.

Seeing this, Zhao Da blushed and said to Zhao Desan, "See? You failed to keep your sister-in-law's job, she changed like a different person after coming back, her mood is very bad, sigh, so, so old brother made such a request to you, old brother really has no other way!" After saying this, fearing that Zhao Desan would not agree, he immediately added, "Comrade Xiao Zhao, rest assured, your sister-in-law will definitely not affect your future marriage, it's just that there is really no way now, so I came up with such a method. Such a good thing, you won't refuse, right?"
