Chapter 97

"Zhang Cuihua only has one son, and he's already sixteen..."

Before Yi Zhonghai could finish, the Deaf Old Lady stood up abruptly.

"Sixteen!"

"This is asking Sha Zhu to marry a wife for him!"

"Old Yi, oh Old Yi, you've handled this matter too dishonorably!"

"I do not agree to this marriage!"

The Deaf Old Lady left in a huff.

She had originally come to lodge a complaint, but now she had actually forgotten all about it.

Once the old lady was gone, Yi Dama asked, "Old Yi, can we really pull this off?"

Yi Zhonghai said, "The old lady has a nice dream, wanting to introduce a young girl to Sha Zhu."

"But which girl would ever take a fancy to Sha Zhu?"

"He's tangled up with Qin Huairu every single day."

"And he's still buried in a mountain of debt."

"He'll be lucky if he can just find a widow."

"Besides, what if he finds a girl and she turns out like Liu Guangqi?"

"If that girl runs off with Sha Zhu, what are we supposed to do?"

"Let's just leave it as it is for now; by the time Sha Zhu finds out, they'll already have feelings for each other."

"Even if he wants to break it off, he won't be able to."

Yi Dama nodded; she was thinking the same thing.

It didn't matter what kind of person Sha Zhu was introduced to; what mattered was that they could provide for their old age.

Sha Zhu wasn't their biological son anyway.

They couldn't be bothered with all those details.

Yi Zhonghai added, "Keep a close watch over the next few days."

"Don't let Sha Zhu get too close to Lu Jianye."

Yi Dama nodded in agreement.

But she felt that this, too, would be of no avail.

Lu Jianye and Sha Zhu both worked in the Rolling Mill canteen.

Forget it.

One step at a time.

The news of Sha Zhu's matchmaking spread through the Sihe Academy again.

At the Jia household.

Qin Huairu panicked, barely eating a thing.

If Sha Zhu got a wife, how would he continue to provide for her family in the future?

Although he couldn't bring back lunch boxes anymore, Sha Zhu still had his salary, his house, and his ration coupons.

Without Sha Zhu.

How would Qin Huairu's family survive these bitter days?

Jia Zhang Shi slapped the edge of the kang in resentment: "That old childless Yi Zhonghai!"

"He's trying to bleed Sha Zhu dry!"

"Our family is in such a state, yet as the First Master, he doesn't even know how to help us out."

"And now he wants to drive Sha Zhu away too!"

"Sha Zhu will end up a childless man too!"

In Jia Zhang Shi's eyes, that dim-witted Sha Zhu was meant to be childless and meant to provide for her family.

In fact, everything Sha Zhu owned should belong to Especially Bang Geng.

As for when Sha Zhu grew old and couldn't work anymore, they could just kick him out of the Sihe Academy!

Especially Bang Geng pressed his little face against the window: "Mom, Lu Jianye's house is eating meat again."

"I want to eat meat."

For the past few days, Especially Bang Geng had been in a daze.

He felt as if he had had a dream where he practiced the Sunflower Manual.

But after waking up, he discovered that his "thing" had truly been cut off.

He hated Lu Jianye even more.

He felt that his current state was all because Lu Jianye had tempted him with that Beggar's Chicken.

He wanted revenge.

But he wanted even more to steal a chicken and make a Beggar's Chicken for himself to eat.

Hearing Especially Bang Geng say he wanted meat, Jia Zhang Shi started scolding Qin Huairu again.

"Qin Huairu, are you deaf?"

"My precious grandson is a patient now; he's at the age where he needs nutrition."

"What kind of mother are you!"

Qin Huairu came to her senses and said, "Mom, you know what Lu Jianye is like."

"During the day, Bai Lu Si almost buried the Deaf Old Lady alive."

Jia Zhang Shi fell silent.

Those shameless people in the courtyard all wanted to take advantage of the situation.

But none of them succeeded.

They were even almost scared to death by Lu Jianye's young wife.

Even the Deaf Old Lady had been chased by Lu Jianye's wife, who was brandishing a shovel.

If she hadn't dodged quickly, that old thing might have really been buried.

Especially Bang Geng was still crying and making a scene; he was a patient now, and if he cried, he got meat to eat!

Sure enough.

Qin Huairu felt sorry for her son and said, "Especially Bang Geng, don't cry."

"Tomorrow, when your Uncle Sha goes matchmaking, you'll have meat to eat."

Upon hearing this, Especially Bang Geng thought that sounded good and stopped crying immediately.

For the past few days, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang Shi had been taking turns brainwashing Especially Bang Geng.

Telling him he must never steal chickens or dogs again.

Otherwise, if his wound split open again, he would truly end up like 249 in the future.

Plus, there was Lu Jianye in the courtyard; if things went wrong and he called the police, Especially Bang Geng would have to go to the juvenile detention center.

Especially Bang Geng understood what that meant.

The little white-eyed wolf decided that until his wound healed, he would conserve his energy.

Anyway, he had already mastered the technique.

In the future, when he made Beggar's Chicken, it would definitely be even better than Lu Jianye's!

Jia Zhang Shi thought of Sha Zhu and felt annoyed again.

She looked toward the small room where Qin Jingru was staying.

She launched into another tirade: "Qin Jingru, you jinx, don't you dare play dead!"

"Our family doesn't feed freeloaders!"

"The New Year is almost here, get out of here right now!"

Qin Huairu was angry too.

Qin Jingru was truly something else.

Even after being scolded like this by Jia Zhang Shi every day, she actually had the thick skin to stay.

This wouldn't do.

She had to talk to her tomorrow and make her get out.
