Chapter 1214: Eldest Uncle wants to ask you for a favor

Nanluoguxiang

Shazhu walked to the alley specifically to look at Cao Weiguo's house, only to see people coming and going at the door, very lively. This made him feel as if he had drunk half a catty of vinegar, feeling sour and uncomfortable in his heart, thinking, what is so good about this Cao Weiguo, why are so many people willing to associate with him.

The cicadas were chirping non-stop in the trees, and Shazhu returned to the courtyard feeling annoyed and irritable, when Qin Huairu walked over, twisting her waist.

Qin Huairu: "Zhuzi, I have something to tell you."

Shazhu laughed honestly: "Sister, just say whatever you have. Who are we to each other? By the way, where is Yanru? Why haven't I seen her all morning?"

Qin Huairu said: "Yanru went to a relative's house, I reckon she won't be back until dark. Zhuzi, Yanru has been in my house for a while, and you know the situation in my house. There are many people in the family to begin with, and every time the end of the month comes, we run out of grain. Now that we've added an adult like Yanru, the flour bag in the house is about to be empty. I really have no other way, so I can only come to you for help."

Shazhu showed a difficult expression upon hearing this: "Sister, I don't have grain in my house either."

Qin Huairu had a bitter face: "Sigh! Then what should we do."

Shazhu thought for a moment and said: "Sister, don't worry, I'll go look for some right now."

After speaking, Shazhu strode straight toward Yi Zhonghai's house.

Entering the room, Shazhu walked to Yi Zhonghai: "Eldest Uncle, my flour bag is empty. Can you lend me ten or so catties of corn flour? I'll definitely pay you back next month."

Yi Zhonghai said troubledly: "Zhuzi! My house doesn't have surplus grain either!"

Shazhu stared with bull-like eyes: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Eldest Uncle! Your house only has two people, where could you eat that much grain! You wouldn't be unwilling to lend it to me, right?"

Yi Zhonghai thought: "Hey! You really are a little smart aleck, I just don't want to lend it!"

At the moment, Shazhu and Qin Yanru are hitting it off, and he is worried about how to break them up.

Now that Shazhu's house has run out of grain, if Qin Yanru sees Shazhu's embarrassed situation, will she still be willing to continue dating?

I'm afraid not many girls are willing to follow a man who eats three meals every nine days.

Yi Zhonghai said angrily: "Zhuzi! In your heart, is Eldest Uncle that kind of person? You disappoint me too much! How little have you borrowed from me? At least five or six thousand, right? My house doesn't have a gold mountain or silver mountain, the money saved is all for my and your Eldest Aunt's retirement. Now you actually say such things, your conscience has been eaten by dogs!"

Shazhu said: "I! I! I didn't mean that! Eldest Uncle! I was muddled! I didn't mean that! I know you are good to me! But what about the grain?"

Yi Zhonghai said angrily: "Who doesn't have a few poor relatives? A few days ago, a cousin of mine came to visit, and I let him take all the extra grain back."

Shazhu: "Ah! Eldest Uncle, why didn't I know about this."

Yi Zhonghai: "What? Does my house have to report to you for everything?"

Shazhu: "No need, no need. Sigh, Eldest Uncle, you say how can you be so generous, you gave the grain to a relative, what should I do now?"

Yi Zhonghai: "I don't have extra grain here, you can go ask the old lady."

Shazhu said depressedly: "The old lady's grain was already taken by me almost completely, going there is useless."

Yi Zhonghai scolded: "You, you! What do you want me to say about you! You aren't young anymore, why can't you strive for something, work hard, cause less trouble? If you worked down-to-earth, even if you couldn't be the cafeteria director, you should be the master chef of the staff cafeteria. How could you still worry about a little grain?"

Shazhu said unhappily: "Eldest Uncle! When have I ever been lazy at work? I, He Yuzhu, have always been loyal and honest, and I've been diligent and conscientious at work. The way I am now is entirely because of villains causing trouble, someone is harming me."

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly: "Then why don't they harm others, why do they specifically harm you? You also need to reflect on yourself, seriously examine yourself, get rid of your current predicament early, and live your life down-to-earth, that's the real business."

Shazhu curled his lips: "Eldest Uncle, my dear uncle! My house has already run out of grain, and I'm going to go hungry for the next meal. You old man, stop talking about those things that don't exist. Hurry up and help me think of a way, let me not go hungry, that's the real thing."

Yi Zhonghai: "What way can I have? I'm just an old fitter, can I go to the grain station and grab grain with you!"

Shazhu thought hard and suddenly had an idea: "Eldest Uncle, then can you lend me ten yuan."

Yi Zhonghai: "Borrow money? What are you borrowing money for?"

Shazhu: "I'll take the money to the pigeon market, you can buy grain there without a grain book."

Yi Zhonghai was silent. To tell the truth, he had grain at home, he just didn't want to lend it to Shazhu. ===== CHAPTER 1216 =====
