Sihe Academy

Jia Family

Banggeng was eating the mung bean cake Sha Zhuzi had brought over in big mouthfuls.

Xiaodang and Huaihua each got a piece of jujube cake.

The three children were eating happily when Sha Zhuzi and Qin Jingru pushed the door open and entered.

Sha Zhuzi was carrying vegetables, and Qin Jingru was carrying pork.

This made Banggeng's eyes light up: "Mom! There's meat!"

Sha Zhuzi said happily: "I'm cooking today, Banggeng, you kid are in for a treat."

Qin Huairu asked with a smile: "How did you two chat?"

Sha Zhuzi said with a face full of smiles: "Very well! Thanks to you!"

Qin Huairu said with a smile: "Then keep chatting, I'll cook today."

Sha Zhuzi hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, don't you cook, I have to show off my skills today and let Jingru see authentic Tan cuisine."

Qin Huairu leaned in with a smile: "Then I'll help you."

Sha Zhuzi waved his hand with a smile and headed straight for the cupboard to get oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar:

"No need, you guys just eat what's ready, I'll do it, I'll do it."

Qin Huairu leaned in and grabbed the vegetables: "You don't know how to handle them."

Sha Zhuzi said happily: "I do, I do, what's this about, I'm a cook, how could I not know how to cook."

Qin Huairu pushed Sha Zhuzi aside: "I'll help you with the prep work first."

The two of them were squeezing back and forth around the stove, and Qin Jingru felt more and more that something was wrong.

A man who hadn't married, a widow who had lost her spouse.

Although the two families were neighbors, this behavior was too intimate.

Qin Jingru watched the two of them cooking together like a married couple.

She couldn't help but feel a bit uncomfortable.

When she went out to the public restroom, Xu Damao, who had been waiting for a long time, ran out:

"Qin Jingru!"

Qin Jingru stopped and looked at Xu Damao: "You! Why are you here?"

Xu Damao said with a serious expression: "I'm here specifically waiting for you!"

"Why are you still on a blind date with Sha Zhuzi?"

"Don't you know he's been to prison?"

"His character is problematic!"

Qin Jingru said: "Don't say that, I've interacted with him, he's a pretty good person."

Xu Damao said seriously: "Then do you know that Sha Zhuzi is together with your sister!"

These words made Qin Jingru freeze, and she stood there blankly looking at Xu Damao.

Xu Damao leaned in and said: "I didn't want to tell you this."

"But I'm afraid that if I don't tell you, I'll harm you in the future."

"I can't bear to see such a good girl jump into a fire pit."

"Ever since your brother-in-law passed away."

"Sha Zhuzi has been flirting with your sister."

"Anything to eat, drink, or use at home has all been given to your sister."

"If you don't believe me, just ask anyone."

"The neighbors in the courtyard, the people in the neighborhood, the workers in the factory."

"Everyone knows about this."

"I know you don't believe it, after all, Qin Huairu is your sister."

Hearing Xu Damao's words, she recalled what she had just seen with her own eyes.

Qin Jingru said with an ugly expression: "I do believe you a little bit."

"I saw my sister and Sha Zhuzi pulling and tugging, and besides..."

Xu Damao was overjoyed and told Qin Jingru a whole bunch of bad things.

This shocked Qin Jingru greatly: "According to what you're saying, my sister's conduct isn't proper?"

Xu Damao perked up: "That's right!"

"Just a while ago, she was even in the cellar with an old man from our courtyard!"

"At the factory, she also likes to flirt and tease with men."

"Sha Zhuzi is over thirty, several years older than me."

"He's always slicked up and loves to dress up."

"I'm telling you, he has unclear relationships with many female workers."

"Not to mention your sister."

"He's been taking care of your sister for so many years."

"He treats those three kids of your sister's like his own."

"If they didn't have something going on, would you be able to do that?"

Qin Jingru nodded secretly: "That makes sense."

"Then I can't agree to this marriage."

"Although I'm from the countryside, I have my own standards for picking a man."

"It's not that I can't marry someone from the city."

"I can't marry someone who is missing arms or legs."

"And I definitely can't marry someone whose conduct isn't proper."

"Hey! I can't talk to you about this."

"But I'm lucky to have met such a warm-hearted good person like you."

"Alright, I'm going to the restroom first."

Having said so much, Qin Jingru was feeling a bit uncomfortable.

Seeing Qin Jingru leave, Xu Damao stayed where he was without moving.

When Qin Jingru returned, he was still waiting there.

Qin Jingru asked in surprise: "Why are you still here?"

Xu Damao said: "Why are you going back to your sister's house? Won't you be meeting Sha Zhuzi again!"

Qin Jingru said: "Hi, it's fine, I'll just tell Sha Zhuzi it's not suitable and that'll be it."

"Sha Zhuzi is Sha Zhuzi, I don't need to have a falling out with my sister over this."

Xu Damao said anxiously: "You're just too naive, you don't know how calculating your sister is, she..."

"Alright! Stop talking! I know what I'm doing!"

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going back."

Qin Jingru didn't continue listening to Xu Damao and walked quickly back to the Sihe Academy.

She came to the city this time just to marry into the city.

If Sha Zhuzi wasn't the one, then she would have to find someone else. ===== CHAPTER 566 =====
