Chapter 395: If you don't agree to this condition, then you must leave
Yan Bu Gui stood up, facing Xu Damao, and said with a solemn expression:
"Xu Damao, by rights we're already relatives."
"But over these years, what you've done is really too much."
"If this time you insist on not letting go of Shazhu, then from now on, whenever I see you in this courtyard, I'll scold you."
Liu Haizhong raised his hand and pointed at Xu Damao, saying, "You little brat, just listen to your Second Elder, ah."
"If you don't go in to clear Shazhu's name, I still have ways to keep him out—do you believe me?"
Xu Damao asked, "What are you trying to do?"
Liu Haizhong: "What am I doing?"
"I, I'll go to your doorstep, I'll throw myself there, I'll knock myself to death, I'll write a suicide note, I'll make you jump into the Yellow River and you still won't be able to wash it off."
Hearing this, Xu Damao furrowed his brows even tighter.
Yan Bu Gui chimed in: "Right, and me too."
Having said that, he raised his hand pointing at Xu Damao and continued:
"I'll make you repent every day."
Xu Damao then became depressed.
Although Liu Haizhong and Yan Bu Gui wouldn't actually go that far,
but it's very likely they'll see him and scold him each time.
Even if they don't scold, when they meet they won't give him a good look, might even poke his back and curse behind his back.
He wouldn't like that either.
After all, they live in the same courtyard, constantly running into each other.
After thinking seriously for a moment, he nodded and said:
"Fine, I admit defeat."
Saying that, he pointed to Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Bu Gui, then continued:
"With you three elders here to keep things under control."
"I can't afford to provoke you, alright?"
"I can go say it."
"However, I have a condition."
Yan Bu Gui asked, "What condition?"
Xu Damao: "Shazhu must apologize to me."
Qin Huairu: "No problem, I'll handle it."
"I'll definitely make Shazhu apologize to you."
Yi Zhonghai snorted and said, "You two are carrying the same load—just apologize to each other and it's over."
Xu Damao: "Eldest Uncle, I'm doing this for your face."
"Giving Shengli face, otherwise I......"
"I'll go say it now; you wait here."
As the party involved, Xu Damao did not pursue Shazhu's responsibility, and Shazhu was soon released.
Evening.
Qin Huairu called Bang Geng back.
When Bang Geng returned home, everyone was sitting there.
He frowned and asked irritably:
"What's the matter that can't be said over the phone?"
Qin Huairu: "No, Bang Geng, are you busy?"
Bang Geng: "Sometimes I'm really busy."
"I need to make money and also handle a relationship."
Jia Zhangshi: "Bang Geng, have you found a partner?"
Bang Geng shook his head and said, "It's not that easy to find."
"I don't even have a formal job right now."
"But I'll surely find one—I don't believe I can't."
Xiao Dang: "Brother, you said Sha Shu found you several jobs, why aren't you satisfied with any of them?"
"What kind of work do you actually want to do?"
Bang Geng: "Don't mention him, and don't even look at what job he found for me—it's either sweeping the streets or cleaning toilets."
"I think he's only fit for that kind of work."
Jia Zhangshi: "Indeed, this Shazhu keeps finding that kind of work for Bang Geng."
"How are you supposed to make Bang Geng do this?"
Huaihua: "I think we should just do it for now, stabilize things, then slowly look later."
Xiao Dang: "I also think we should do that."
"Otherwise, you'll have a hard time finding a partner."
"Look, Huaihua is about to get married, and you still haven't found a partner."
Bang Geng said irritably: "You two stop standing there talking without getting a backache."
"If I do this kind of work, it'll be even harder to find a partner."
Having said that, he looked at Qin Huairu and asked:
Mom, you called me back tonight just to say this?
Qin Huairu: "No, no, okay, okay, don't talk about your brother."
Mom believes he will know his limits.
Bang Geng: "That's right, don't worry, I will definitely make a fortune."
Qin Huairu: "Then can you tell Mom what work you're doing now?"
Bang Geng: "Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand."
Anyway, I will definitely make money, definitely make a fortune, definitely let the people in the courtyard look at me with new eyes.
You also don't need to say so much.
Just tell me why you called me back.
Qin Huairu thought for a moment and said: "I mean, didn't I just impulsively get married to Shazhu not long ago?"
Xiao Dang: "Mom, how can you say it was impulsive?"
I think Sha Shu is quite good.
He has liked you for so many years.
He is also very good to our family.
If you are with him, he will surely treat you well, and also treat our family even better.
Qin Huairu: "Of course I was impulsive."
I'm already this old.
Where would I still have this mindset?
Now I just think that you all can get married, have children, I'll help take care of the kids, and that would satisfy me.
Also, Shazhu was impulsive back then too.
Look, he now regrets it.
Bang Geng widened his eyes and asked: "Shazhu actually regrets it?"
Hasn't he always liked you?
Hasn't he always dreamed of you marrying him?
Qin Huairu let out a long sigh and said: "That was in the past."
Now Shazhu likes Teacher Ran, he wants to be with Teacher Ran.
Bang Geng: "Ah? No way?"
Then, now that you've gotten the marriage certificate, you're protected by law.
You can't easily divorce him.
Unless he agrees to leave the house to us.
Let me tell you, if there's no house, it will be even harder for me to find a partner.
Jia Zhangshi echoed: "Right, right, right, I think the same."
No matter what, Shazhu must leave a house for our family's Bang Geng.
Qin Huairu: "This, I also don't know."
Although I got the marriage certificate with Shazhu, we are not actually together.
When we got the certificate, I put forward a condition.
That is, he resigns from Teacher Ran's restaurant and leaves Teacher Ran.
As long as he does that, I will wholeheartedly be with him.
But he refused me.
Xiao Dang: "Mom, your condition is too harsh, right?"
Sha Shu is earning a lot at that restaurant now.
You ask him to quit, have you considered us?
Yes, he could work elsewhere.
But he would earn less, right?
I think that Sha Shu actually got the certificate with you, he would want to live a good life with you.
So you don't need to doubt him, nor worry that he will be with Teacher Ran.
If they were meant to be together, they would already be together; if they were to be together, he couldn't have gotten this certificate with you.
Qin Huairu: "Alright, you don't need to say more."
We should be people with ambition.
Since Shazhu doesn't agree to my condition, it shows his heart isn't yet on me.
At least not completely on me.
So, if he proposes divorce, I still have to agree.
