Chapter 294: This old witch, she's thick-skinned

It got dark.

Shazhu still hadn't come back.

Qin Huairu suddenly felt a little panicked.

Recalling what she had said to Shazhu today, it was a bit over the top.

Moreover, she went to find Xu Damao and said that the sweater she had originally been knitting for Shazhu was actually for Xu Damao.

What if Xu Damao shows off and tells Shazhu about this?

Would Shazhu then stop caring for her from now on?

Even the factory wages wouldn't be paid to her?

Thinking about this, she grew increasingly anxious.

So she ran to the Siheyuan gate and waited.

Soon, someone returned to the courtyard.

She greeted him with a smile, "You're back."

"Mm, who are you waiting for?"

"I wasn't waiting for anyone; it's stuffy inside, so I came out to cool off."

After waiting a while longer, Shazhu returned.

She hurried forward and said:

"You finally came back; you scared me to death."

Shazhu replied irritably:

"You worried? I don't think so."

Qin Huairu sniffed and asked:

"You drank again?"

Shazhu shook his head and said, "No, I didn't drink."

Qin Huairu: "No, you, how do you lie so easily?"

"You reek of alcohol, yet you say you didn't drink?"

Shazhu shook his head as he walked toward the Siheyuan.

Qin Huairu frowned, caught up to him, grabbed his arm, and asked:

"Who were you drinking with?"

Suddenly.

Shazhu heard that, smiled at Qin Huairu, and asked:

"You, you guess."

Qin Huairu was completely confused by him.

However, as long as Shazhu smiled, it meant he wasn't angry with her.

She chuckled and asked, "Did you go drink with the Great Leader?"

Shazhu grinned and said, "Smart, too smart—I've discovered that widows are really smart."

"You guessed it right away—I really went drinking with the Great Leader."

Qin Huairu asked, "How has the Great Leader's health been lately?"

Shazhu: "Good, how could it be bad?"

Qin Huairu snorted and questioned, "Didn't you tell me last time that the Great Leader's health was bad?"

Shazhu's smile faded and he asked, "Did I say that?"

Qin Huairu's face darkened and she asked again, "You didn't say that?"

Shazhu thought, waved his hand, and said, "No, nothing like that—he's fine."

But he's old now, he really can't drink anymore.

I was drinking with his children.

Qin Huairu wouldn't indulge him and exposed him on the spot:

"Come on, the Great Leader's children—who would be acquainted with you?"

"Besides, they're all leaders now—who has the time to waste chatting with you?"

Shazhu was very angry.

Qin Huairu isn't even married to him, so why does she care so much?

However, Teacher Ran didn't give him a definite answer either, and he didn't dare to easily offend Qin Huairu.

Besides, he was also afraid of pushing Qin Huairu into Xu Damao's arms.

So he endured.

He also felt that if he told her this good news, she would definitely be happy.

Given his understanding of Qin Huairu, as long as he wasn't with Teacher Ran, Qin Huairu would certainly not get together with Xu Damao.

After all, he can now earn money.

Qin Huairu likes money, doesn't she?

All he did was smile and say, "This time it's legitimate, a good thing."

Upon hearing it was a good thing, Qin Huairu immediately laughed so hard she couldn't close her mouth:

"What good thing? Hurry up and tell us."

Shazhu didn't speak; he just started grinning foolishly.

Qin Huairu also laughed and asked:

Come on, tell me, what good thing is it? Let me be happy too.

Shazhu gave a silly laugh and said, "I haven't been this happy in a long time, have I?"

Qin Huairu nodded and said, "Yeah, hurry up and tell me, I'm dying of anxiety."

Let me be happy too.

Shazhu leaned close to Qin Huairu, about to speak, but suddenly turned and walked away, saying while walking:

Guess!

Qin Huairu followed him up, patted his shoulder, and laughed while scolding:

What kind of person is this, still playing coy?

What's the matter, hurry up and say.

Shazhu: "Guess."

Qin Huairu: "I won't guess, I can't guess it."

Shazhu: "Guess hard."

Qin Huairu: "I really can't guess, hurry up and tell me."

Shazhu: "Let's talk about it when we get back, say it in front of the kids so they can be happy too."

Several minutes later.

Qin Huairu's home.

Xiao Dang excitedly patted Shazhu's shoulder and said:

Oh dear, Sha Shu, you've finally made a very wise decision this time.

Wait, I'll pour you a cup of water, ah.

This is literally like a pie falling from the sky.

They invest, you take shares.

I say this is really suitable.

Shazhu said this, and everyone was very happy.

Everyone was flattering Shazhu.

Bang Geng also wanted to flatter, but when he saw Qin Huairu, he shut up.

Jia Zhangshi excitedly said: "Let me tell you, Shazhu in this life keeps running into benefactors."

When I see Shazhu, I tell you, I've watched him grow up since childhood.

I've always said, Shazhu will definitely amount to something in the future.

Upon hearing this, Shazhu silently thought to himself:

This old hag, still has the nerve to say that.

Her skin is really thick.

Huaihua patted Shazhu and said:

Sha Shu, you know what I need most.

Shazhu grinned and said:

I know, I know, the first thing I'll do with the money is take care of you.

Qin Huairu: "I feel like this is like a pie falling from the sky, this is too great."

Shazhu frowned, worried that Qin Huairu would see through his ruse.

He stood up and said: "Alright, alright, let's not say anything more."

No matter how you say it, this anger is finally out.

Xu Damao didn't make some money?

Once my restaurant opens, I'll make more money than him, let me tell you.

Xu Damao, let him enjoy himself, hehe.

Qin Huairu: "No, Xu Damao himself is not doing badly either."

Can you be sure that you'll earn more than him in the future?

Shazhu: "I'm not bragging, once my restaurant opens, even if he flatters me he can't catch up, let me tell you."

Qin Huairu excitedly said: "Then, then you better work hard."

Jia Zhangshi: "Right, right, right, work hard, you keep saying you're this old, always competing with Xu Damao, really."

Shazhu: "Hey, let me tell you, without him I'd feel it's boring."

Alright, it's getting late, I'm heading back.

After saying that, he stood up and walked out.

Xiao Dang: "I'll persist."

Huaihua: "You troublemaker."

Shazhu had just reached the door when he suddenly turned back and asked Xiao Dang:

Isn't it Xiao Dang, you said you'd pour water for Sha Shu?

Coming to your house, after saying such big news, I haven't drunk a sip of water, I'm dying of thirst.

Xiao Dang slapped his forehead and said: "Look at my brain, when I get happy I forget everything."

Come on, come on, please sit, I'll go pour you water right away.

Shazhu: "I won't sit, I've had some drink, I'm thirsty, I'll drink some water and then go back to sleep."

Qin Huairu: "Xiao Dang, hurry up and pour water for your Sha Shu, he's the biggest now, ah."

He tells you what to do, and you have to do it.
