Chapter 252: We Have to Take Care of It Ourselves

Bang Geng glanced at Shazhu again, closed the door, and walked to Shazhu's side to sit down.

Shazhu looked at him with a satisfied expression and said:

"Bang Geng, you're good."

"Somewhat like me—recognize a mistake and correct it."

He said, nodded, and continued:

"Very good."

"People often make mistakes."

"There is no one who never errs."

"Today I'll teach you another trick."

Hearing that, Bang Geng wanted to say, "Enough, stop talking nonsense. Teaching me a trick—who do you think you are?"

Unfortunately, Qin Huairu repeatedly ordered him not to speak with Shazhu.

Shazhu thought for a moment and then said:

"An old man knows when he himself has erred."

"You also need to find a way out for yourself."

"Make this mistake smooth over."

"That's what being capable means."

Bang Geng stared at Shazhu, saying nothing.

Shazhu asked, "The words are a bit profound; you didn't understand, right?"

Bang Geng still remained silent, but picked up the two walnuts on the table and cracked them with one hand.

Shazhu laughed, "Alright, that's what a stepping stone is, understand?"

Bang Geng couldn't help thinking, "Shazhu, aren't you being too humble?"

"I was just trying to eat a walnut, and you turned it into finding a stepping stone?"

Shazhu obviously didn't know Bang Geng's thoughts; otherwise he would have been so angry he'd spit out three liters of blood.

He continued on his own, "Bang Geng, when you were a kid you stole my things, pried open my vegetable cellar, and pried open my wardrobe."

"Good fellow, that winter you gave me a thorough raid."

"I said I'd eat some boiled cabbage hearts."

"But, sigh, over a hundred heads of cabbage."

"None of them had any heart."

"Really impressive."

Bang Geng looked at Shazhu and couldn't help laughing.

Shazhu saw that and got very excited.

Bang Geng finally smiled at him.

What does this indicate?

It shows that initiating conversation with him shouldn't be far off.

As long as Bang Geng talks to him, Qin Huairu will marry him.

He smiled and said, "You say you're laughing, why are you still laughing?"

Then.

He stood up, walked to the cabinet, opened it, took out a sheet of paper, placed it on the table in front of Bang Geng, and said:

"Now, learn properly from others."

"Don't embarrass your mother."

Bang Geng took it and saw it was a job introduction letter.

Shazhu really arranged it for him.

He was excited, but when he recalled that Lin Shengli said he would intervene, his smile instantly froze.

Shazhu let out a long sigh and asked:

"Are you worried Lin Shengli will stop it?"

Bang Geng nodded.

Shazhu sighed again and said:

"I didn't expect Lin Shengli to come now to settle accounts with you, and even heard me say I'd find you a job."

"This all happened by coincidence."

"However, we can't let ourselves die of holding in urine."

"I've thought about it too; maybe Lin Shengli is just talking."

"Anyway, take the introduction letter and report in, study well."

"When the time comes, we'll see how things go."

"If Lin Shengli blocks it, I'll go plead to the leaders."

"No, I'll kneel before Lin Shengli and beg him."

Bang Geng nodded and left.

Shazhu frowned and said, "Come back."

Bang Geng halted, turned around, and walked back.

Shazhu looked at Bang Geng and asked, "Bang Geng, don't you have anything to say to Sha Shu?"

Bang Geng hesitated, nodded, then shook his head.

Shazhu: "Fine, I won't force you either."

"How about this, you go back and tell your mother."

"Tonight you stay at my place."

"I'll stay in the back courtyard."

"Stay away from Xu Damao; it's no good, okay."

Bang Geng nodded and left.

Shazhu watched his back, shook his head, let out a long sigh, and muttered to himself:

"That kid still doesn't say a single word to me."

"What a treacherous wolf!"

Actually, Shazhu had already seen it: Bang Geng is a treacherous wolf, impossible to tame.

But.

Who made him think of that woman's mother?

If he wants to marry Qin Huairu, he must also obtain Bang Geng's consent.

So he can only try every means to please Bang Geng.

However, on second thought, Bang Geng already smiled at him; is talking still far off?

Thus, with a smug face, he muttered to himself:

"Look at our level."

"The bragging isn't empty, the train isn't pushed."

"Never tasted salt, never crossed a bridge."

"Still want to compete with me?"

"I just don't believe you won't speak."

Evening.

Xu Damao went out to take out the trash and happened to see Qin Huairu walk into the room left by the Deaf Old Lady.

He couldn't help but frown.

In the afternoon, Bang Geng moved out, and Shazhu moved in; he knows that.

He returned home, checked the time: a quarter past nine.

"Your guts are fat enough, already at a quarter past nine and you're eager to sleep together."

Muttering to himself, Xu Damao walked out of the house.

He's going to look for Liu Haizhong.

On the other side.

Shazhu looked at Qin Huairu's dead‑pan face and felt anger rise in his heart.

It turned out Qin Huairu had come to demand justice.

Why did you help Bang Geng find a job without telling her in advance?

Shazhu let out a long sigh and said:

"No, I ask why you are getting more and more muddled, huh?"

"Why so petty?"

"Who am I doing this for? Isn't it for you?"

"It's to make Bang Geng respect you more."

Qin Huairu: "You belong to the unit; you have never had me in your heart."

"Learning to drive, getting into a ministry to drive—how big of a deal is that?"

"If you had spoken earlier, would Bang Geng have fought you that day?"

"If you had spoken earlier, would Bang Geng still be with Xu Damao?"

"Would he still have fought Liu Guangfu?"

"Would he still have laid a hand on Eldest Uncle?"

"Would he still have tangled with Lin Shengli?"

"That's your fault."

"You should have said it earlier."

Shazhu, with a gloomy face, said: "But how could I have thought this would happen?"

"Why is this matter now blaming me?"

"I humbled myself to beg for help, just to find Bang Geng a good job."

"Did I also make a mistake?"

"How wronged I am."

"Moreover, if I had told you earlier, the meaning wouldn't be that meaning."

"You must act before you speak, right?"

Qin Huairu: "Hmph, do you know what I was thinking when you were hitting Bang Geng?"

Shazhu: "Of course I know."

"You and your son can go beat me together."

Qin Huairu viciously said: "Beat you? I'd rather choke you to death!"

Shazhu: "That's exactly what you think."

"This matter, huh."

Actually, it doesn't come from this at all.

It's because Bang Geng isn't my biological child.

You say, if it were a blood relation, could you say that?

You wouldn't overthink it, so we must seize the time and handle it ourselves.

Qin Huairu: "No, we still can't get past the Bang Geng obstacle."

I ask you, if it were a blood relation, would you be willing to act?

Shazhu: "Willing, how could I not be willing?"

This is educating the child.

If it were a blood relation, I'd strike even harder.
