Chapter 51: It Even Alarmed the Security Section Chief

Shazhu laughed embarrassedly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I'm Shazhu, Qin Jie could never fall for me."

Shazhu felt really unhappy.

The goddess in his heart actually looked at him like that?

Over all these years, he's constantly tried to please her—when she asked for help he helped, when she borrowed money he lent it, and he's never gotten anything back.

In the end she actually thought he was stupid?

Hmph!

He really thinks I'm stupid!

Shazhu glanced at Qin Huairu and silently thought to himself,

Actually, Shazhu never even considered marrying Qin Huairu, even if she were single.

Because Qin Huairu is no longer an unmarried maiden, and she still has a rural household registration.

As Shazhu, he basically has an iron rice bowl.

How could he possibly marry a woman who already has a child and still has a rural hukou?

He just wants to do something shady and exciting with Qin Huairu.

If nothing else works, just a touch, a bit of ambiguity—that would make him feel his investment was worth it.

Seeing Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu exchange a glance, they both fell silent, and Qin Huairu quickly changed the subject:

"Shazhu, how much fish is left?"

"You see how much Bang Geng likes to eat, why not leave some for him?"

She was worried that Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu would keep harping on this issue.

Then they might end up falling out with Shazhu.

Nowadays, we don't know what attitude Yi Zhonghai will have toward their family.

If they fell out with Shazhu, life would only get harder from then on.

So.

She hurriedly shifted the conversation to the topic that Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu were most interested in.

Sure enough.

Jia Zhangshi perked up: "Exactly, Shazhu, you eating your fill means the whole family won't go hungry."

"You like Bang Geng so much, and you like Huaihua so much—just leave some for them."

Shazhu waved his hand generously and said:

"There's still one whole squid and half a sea fish left—I'll leave them all for Bang Geng."

"Bang Geng, if you want something cooked, just tell your mom; if you want me to make it, give me a shout and I'll definitely cook it for you."

"But, Sha Shu has a saying: always look out for your sister."

Bang Geng exclaimed excitedly: "Great, great! My mom's cooking isn't tasty—come tomorrow and make it for me again."

Shazhu: "No problem, as long as you're happy."

Qin Huairu thought for a moment and asked: "What about those tickets, then?"

"There are a lot of industrial coupons, and also grain coupons."

Shazhu didn't even think, just said: "Leave me three grain coupons and five industrial coupons; the rest is yours."

He had actually thought about this while at home.

To curry favor with Qin Huairu, he really went all out.

Qin Huairu greedily asked: "Why do you need grain coupons?"

"Our family is large; we never have enough to eat each month."

"Better yet, just give them all to us."

Jia Zhangshi: "Exactly, Shazhu, you're a bachelor—eating your fill means the whole family won't go hungry, so grain coupons aren't that useful to you."

"Giving them to us is practically lifesaving grain."

Shazhu thought it over and said: "Alright, since you've put it that way, not giving them to you would make me look petty."

Jia Zhangshi exclaimed excitedly: "Then I'll go ahead and take them."

With that said.

She took the bag Shazhu had brought and put it away.

She was worried something unexpected might happen.

After all, this stuff was given to Lin Shengli by Deputy Factory Director Li.

Anyway.

This thing is now hers.

As for whether Deputy Factory Director Li and Lin Shengli will cause trouble for Shazhu, that's none of her concern.

Jia Zhangshi had just entered the kitchen with the bag when the Section Chief Wang of the Ya gang chang Security Section came in with two people.

Shazhu and Jia Dongxu hurriedly stood up and greeted:

"Section Chief Wang is here."

Section Chief Wang nodded, glanced at the dried squid and sea fish on the table, and said:

"Not bad on the food."

"No wonder you're all so plump."

"Did you buy this stuff?"

Shazhu hurriedly said: "Well, I cooked for someone and they gave it to me."

Jia Dongxu: "Exactly, exactly, Shazhu brought it."

Section Chief Wang gave Shazhu an up-and-down look and said:

"I know you, you're the factory cook."

"This couldn't be from our factory, could it?"

Shazhu hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Of course not, of course not."

He was a bit nervous, worried that Section Chief Wang had been sent by Deputy Factory Director Li.

Now everything on the table was a gift from Deputy Factory Director Lin Shengli.

Section Chief Wang: "Look at how nervous you are, I was just asking casually."

"I came this time to investigate another matter."

Upon hearing that, Shazhu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Jia Dongxu brought over a chair, placed it behind Section Chief Wang, and said:

"Section Chief Wang, please have a seat."

Then.

He turned to Qin Huairu and said:

"Daughter-in-law, this is Section Chief Wang of our factory's Security Section."

Qin Huairu hurriedly greeted: "Hello, Section Chief Wang."

Section Chief Wang nodded, sat down, and asked Jia Dongxu:

"Jia Dongxu, where's your mother?"

Jia Zhangshi came out of the kitchen and asked:

"Who's looking for me?"

Jia Dongxu: "That's my mother, Section Chief Wang. What's the matter?"

Section Chief Wang looked at Jia Zhangshi and asked: "What did you do tonight?"

Hearing that, Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu both involuntarily changed expression.

In their view, Jia Zhangshi must have done something bad again.

And it wasn't a small matter.

This even alarmed the Security Section.

Jia Zhangshi stared, then asked:

"What, what do you mean?"

"Who are you?"

Jia Dongxu: "Mom, this is Section Chief Wang of our factory's Security Section."

Jia Zhangshi: "Oh, Section Chief Wang, I, I didn't do anything tonight."

"I've been at home all along."

Section Chief Wang: "You've been at home all along?"

Jia Zhangshi: "Yes."

Section Chief Wang: "But someone said you smashed the glass at Lin Shengli, Section Chief Lin's home."

"Is that true?"

Upon hearing that.

Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu couldn't help but exchange a glance.

Both of their faces looked somewhat grim.

Qin Huairu even silently thought to herself, "It's over."

Jia Zhangshi shouted: "Hey, Section Chief Wang, you can't just spout nonsense!"

Section Chief Wang: "I see you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin."

"When you smashed the glass at Section Chief Lin's house, someone actually saw it."

His words fell.

Section Chief Wang stood up and shouted:

"Seize her!"

Two subordinates immediately each grabbed one of Jia Zhangshi's arms.

Jia Zhangshi instantly went weak in the knees from fright.

Jia Dongxu looked anxious, turning his gaze to Qin Huairu.

Xiao Dang also cried out in fear.

Qin Huairu quickly had Bang Geng take Xiao Dang and Huaihua to the inner room.

Then she said to Section Chief Wang: "Section Chief Wang, could this be a misunderstanding?"

Shazhu: "Yeah, Section Chief Wang, this must be a misunderstanding; you need to investigate first—without investigation you have no right to speak."

Section Chief Wang glared at Shazhu and barked: "Shut up!"

"Do I need you to teach me how to investigate a case?"

As he spoke, he walked around Jia Zhangshi, finally standing before her, "Lin Shengli, Section Chief Lin, is an engineer who was just transferred to our factory."

"Factory Director Yang himself said he's the treasure of our factory."

"He's more precious than anyone; bullying him is like bullying Factory Director Yang."
