Chapter 364

Hearing Qin Huairu's words, Yan Jiecheng couldn't help but frown and said:

"Qin Jie, now it's not about whether he repays the money."

"Our business here is at a one‑discount."

"On top of that, the hotel's contract fee for next year, people refuse to give us."

"Then we really can't come up with my mother's surgery fee."

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly and asked, "Is this a matter of not being able to produce the surgery fee?"

"Your mother is hospitalized; can you not even afford a single meal?"

"Sending Xiao Dang to deliver the meals—what are you thinking?"

"This isn't a money issue; it's a matter of your mindset as children."

Yan Jiecheng said somewhat depressed, "Eldest Uncle, you speak too harshly."

"If you say that, I don't want to hear it."

"We've always been trying to raise money, haven't we?"

"It's truly impossible to split ourselves."

"As for my younger brother and sister‑in‑law not delivering meals, that's their problem."

"I can no longer control them."

"If you want to speak, then go ahead."

"No need to tell me these."

"Besides, my dad eating meals doesn't mean he doesn't give money."

"Just treat my dad as joining the partnership—wouldn't that be fine?"

"My dad doesn't lack a pension."

"We can make up for it later, and that would be fine, right?"

"You, stop trying to lecture me."

"If you can raise the money for my mother's treatment, I'll call you 'dad'."

Yan Jiecheng is also trying to use provocation.

He knows Yi Zhonghai has plenty of money.

Lin Shengli is so rich.

As Yi Zhonghai's nephew, can one not give him money?

Even if not, with Yi Zhonghai's high salary over so many years, he must have saved a lot.

But Yi Zhonghai directly gave Liu Haizhong the emergency rescue fee.

He didn't give the Yan family a single cent.

He feels very dissatisfied inside.

Seizing this chance, he also wants to provoke Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly and said irritably:

"I don't have a son like that."

"Yan Jiecheng, I know you're using provocation to try to rile me up."

"I won't buy into that."

"Because I don't have that much money either."

Yan Jiecheng was stunned for a moment and asked:

"Isn't Shengli so rich that he wouldn't give you?"

Yi Zhonghai: "He certainly gave, but I didn't take it."

"My retirement pension is high enough for my own expenses."

"Why do I still need the child's money?"

Yan Jiecheng: "What a pity, I still wanted to call you 'dad'."

At that moment, Shazhu's shout suddenly rang out:

"You can call me 'dad'."

The voice reached, and people arrived.

When the words fell, Shazhu, carrying a big bag of lunch boxes, walked over.

Seeing this.

Xiao Dang shouted excitedly, "Sha Shu, so many!"

Shazhu placed the lunch boxes on the table and said to Qin Huairu:

"Go, bring the wine over; I'll have a couple of drinks with Eldest Uncle and San Da Ye."

"Today's dishes are all good."

After saying that, he sat down, then looked up at Yan Jiecheng and asked:

"Yan Jiecheng, do you know how you broke this?"

Yan Jiecheng: "How I broke it? Isn't it the same as how Qin Huairu broke it?"

"I also don't want to hear your nonsense here."

Shazhu: "You don't like listening?"

"Alright, I'll show you something real."

"Then you'll love listening."

After saying that, Shazhu brought over his bag and took out a stack of cash from inside.

Everyone looked, and they all froze.

This is three stacks, that's thirty thousand.

How could Shazhu have so much money?

Shazhu looked at Yan Jiecheng, pointed at the money, and asked:

"Do you want to listen?"

Yan Jiecheng said weakly: "Sorry, you scared me."

Shazhu looked at Yu Li with a proud, tsundere expression and asked:

"Yu Li, do you want to listen?"

Yu Li happily nodded and said:

"I want to listen, I want to listen."

Shazhu: "You want to listen?"

"If you wanted to hear it, I wouldn't have said it."

Saying that, he looked at Qin Huairu, who stood there expressionless, and said: "Huairu, come, take it."

Qin Huairu didn't speak.

Xiao Dang hurriedly said: "Mom, he's telling you to take the money."

Qin Huairu still didn't speak.

Xiao Dang: "Sha Shu, let me take it instead."

Shazhu waved his hand and said: "No, only your mother can take this money."

"This money is from the restaurant for my shares, which I sold, and some came from my disciples gritting their teeth to chip in."

"Something big happened in the courtyard, I have to help."

"And the one who must manage the money is none other than Qin Huairu."

"As for money, it's an external possession."

"When we have money later, we can just buy the shares back."

Having said that, seeing Qin Huairu silent and unmoved, Shazhu intensified his tone and said in a low voice:

"Hurry up and take it!"

"If you don't take it, I'll scatter it."

"I, Shazhu, regard money as dirt."

"The elders in the courtyard are in trouble, I must help."

Xiao Dang froze, looked at Qin Huairu, and said:

"Mom, what are you doing? Hurry up and take it."

Jia Zhangshi chimed in: "Right, Huairu, let you take it, then hurry up and put it away."

"What Shazhu said is right; something big happened in the courtyard, everyone should help."

"This is Shazhu's intention."

"You are indeed the most suitable person to manage the money in this courtyard."

Yi Zhonghai: "Huairu, you should understand Shazhu's intentions."

"Besides, we're short on money now, so just put it away."

Qin Huairu pretended to think, walked over, and took the money.

From beginning to end, she kept a deadpan face.

She certainly wanted to take it.

But she never had the chance.

Now Yi Zhonghai has spoken.

She certainly couldn't wait to take it.

If Shazhu regrets it, she'll cry herself to death.

Seeing Qin Huairu put the money away, Shazhu happily said:

"Eh, that's right."

Yan Bu Gui froze, then asked weakly:

"Shazhu, you, you gave Qin Huairu so much money, you, you got married?"

Shazhu: "Third Elder, that's too vulgar!"

"What certificate? Without a certificate, can't Huairu manage the money?"

"She's always been the one managing the money."

"As for me, I don't understand money management."

"I also trust her, so I'm letting her be the hands-off manager."

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li exchanged a glance, each thinking silently:

"Never seen such a stupid fool!"

"Calling you a pig is really an insult to pigs."

Thinking and thinking, Yu Li couldn't help but speak up:

"Shazhu, you're truly noble."

"You haven't even figured out your own affairs, yet you trust Qin Jie so much."

"Of course, I'm not saying Qin Jie is bad."

"But you also need to consider yourself."

So I think, since you trust Qin Jie so much, you might as well go get a marriage certificate with Qin Jie.

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu felt a bit excited and looked toward Shazhu.

Yan Jiecheng: "Right, Shazhu, I think you must like Qin Jie, otherwise why would you give her so much money? You might as well get married."

We could also have a cup of wedding wine.

Shazhu smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about this."

The matter between me and Qin Huairu, nobody else understands.

Don't rush, don't rush, ah, come on, Eldest Uncle, San Da Ye, let's drink.
