Chapter 399: Not a penny left, what should we do?

Qin Huairu let out a long sigh and said, "Ah, anyway, life is getting tighter and tighter."

Shazhu: "There's nothing we can do; we can't earn ill-gotten money, right?"

Qin Huairu said unhappily, "Right, you're absolutely right."

"But it seems you still haven't paid off your debts, right?"

Shazhu said indifferently, "No problem, it's all the disciples'."

"I'm not bragging, but the disciples I've taken are all filial."

Qin Huairu said sarcastically, "Is that so?"

"What about that fat guy? The fat guy who works at Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li's restaurant."

Shazhu frowned and said, "That's an exception."

"I saw through him long ago; he's not my disciple anymore."

"Now he's doing terribly."

Qin Huairu: "Is he worse off than you?"

Shazhu: "No, what do you mean by that?"

"Am I miserable?"

"I'm not miserable at all, okay?"

"You, don't worry, don't be afraid."

"I'm not the kind of person who lets everyone suffer poverty."

"Rest assured, rest assured, you can just relax."

Qin Huairu: "I trust you."

Shazhu: "That's right; you must always have confidence in me."

Jia Zhangshi thought and asked, "How about letting the kids chip in?"

"We can't let those three old brothers be wronged."

Shazhu: "Definitely don't mind."

"Mom, definitely don't mind."

"The kids aren't having it easy either."

"Look at Xiao Dang; she just found a boyfriend."

"Right?"

"And Huaihua just got married and is pregnant; this is a time when money is needed."

"As for Bang Geng, I'd like him to help out, if he can."

"But he doesn't even know what job he's doing now."

"I see he's not well off either; we'd better not ask him."

After saying that, he raised his hand, waved it, and then said:

"Who am I?"

"Can I point at the kids?"

"If I have to point at the kids, hiding would make us look useless, right?"

Jia Zhangshi waved her hand and said, "Fine, fine, fine, then it's up to you."

"But you need to come up with a solution soon; we can't always have no income, right?"

Actually, Jia Zhangshi was just saying that to sound nice.

She really didn't want her few grandsons and granddaughters to lose money.

As long as Shazhu is around.

If Shazhu has no income, he can go borrow money.

As for how Shazhu will repay the debt later, that's his own business.

Anyway, her standard of living cannot drop.

She would love for Shazhu to take everything on himself.

Qin Huairu let out a long sigh and said, "How on earth are we supposed to handle this?"

"I don't have a single penny left."

"And the New Year is coming up soon."

"Why don't you go... sigh, what do you say we do about this?"

Qin Huairu originally wanted Shazhu to borrow money, but she changed her mind at the last moment.

She knew Shazhu would find a way to get money.

If Shazhu doesn't get the money, she'll later urge him to borrow.

Shazhu thought and said, "There's a way."

Having said that, he stood up and said, "Don't worry, I'm here; what solution could there be? I'll go think of one right now."

Qin Huairu asked, "How? Did you find another employer again?"

Shazhu casually replied, "Yeah, there is, there actually is."

"But we also need to have principles, right?"

"We can't go to that big restaurant."

"He won't let us handle the cooking; what's the point of going? Right?"

"If we don't handle the cooking, we won't earn any money."

"Let's go to a small eatery; we'll just have to bring the disciples."

This isn't easy to handle.

You said that now, when I call out, this apprentice will definitely come.

But, isn't that just dismantling Teacher Ran's equipment?

Hearing this, Qin Huairu frowned, somewhat unhappily interrupting:

No, you have nothing to do with Teacher Ran.

Why are you still worrying about all that?

Now we should first look after ourselves; we're barely able to keep the pot boiling.

Shazhu: "That's absolutely not okay; we can't do the thing of tearing down the bridge after crossing the river, right?"

Qin Huairu became even more unhappy: "Yes, we can't do the tearing-down-the-bridge-after-crossing thing."

But that also depends on the person.

You don't still have feelings for Teacher Ran, do you?

Shazhu let out a light sigh, saying: "This, since I chose to resign from the restaurant, I just want to wholeheartedly spend my days with you."

Teacher Ran has also given us quite a bit; we truly can't do the tearing-down-the-bridge-after-crossing thing.

Qin Huairu: "Then, you didn't say she already invited Nan Yi?"

Shazhu: "Just invited Nan Yi alone."

Nan Yi alone can't manage this kitchen.

He also needs someone to cooperate, right?

Don't worry, it's fine, ah.

We have a way, we have a way.

Shazhu put on his coat while speaking.

Having put on his coat and just about to go out, Xiao Dang came back.

Shazhu grinned, saying: "Yo, Xiao Dang is back."

Xiao Dang walked up to Shazhu and said: "Silly Dad, let me discuss something with you."

Shazhu smiled, shook his head, and said: "No need to discuss, I disagree."

Xiao Dang asked with a sullen face: "No, I haven't even said what it is yet, how can you already disagree?"

You, you're not even treating me as a person.

In our family, I am the one who most supports you being with my mom.

Shazhu: "Even if you don't say it, I know what it is, so I disagree."

Xiao Dang: "Then tell me, what is it that I want to discuss with you?"

Shazhu: "No need to say, it's definitely about the house."

Besides the house matter, what else do you want to discuss with me?

Money? I've already handed all of it over to your mom.

Besides, your mom also said we have no money left at all.

Xiao Dang replied with a smile: "Why do you just disagree?"

Look, if I wanted to get married, my boyfriend also doesn't have a house, right?

Without a house, we can't get married.

Shazhu: "Oh, I see."

Then bring that little bastard back, I??, if I'm satisfied, I'll agree to you.

As long as I nod......

Saying this, he pointed at the house, then continued:

As long as I'm satisfied, then I'll move here with your mom.

Live together with your grandma.

The house in the backyard will be yours.

Xiao Dang excitedly said: "Then it's settled like that."

Shazhu said with a proud, smug expression: "That's for sure."

What are we taking advantage of? Just the house.

Then we can attract a son-in-law who moves in.

Xiao Dang pretended to be angry: "You're hurting me again, no fun."

Shazhu: "Who's hurting you?"

Saying this, he pointed at himself, facing the smiling Qin Huairu, and asked:

I myself am like this, right?

Qin Huairu happily said: "Yes yes yes, you're exactly like that."

Otherwise, how could I be with you?

Qin Huairu had reason to be happy.

Shazhu saying that is equivalent to giving the house to her child.

How could she not be happy?
