Chapter 779

Isn't it just a wife?

I, He He Yuzhu, how could I, such an outstanding man, fail to find a wife?

Seeing Seeing Shazhu gritted his teeth and rushed to the Deaf Old Lady's house.

He wanted the Deaf Old Lady to help arrange a match.

Upon hearing her beloved grandson wanted a wife, the Deaf Old Lady...

... was as delighted as an old chrysanthemum blooming.

"What about Qin Qin Huairu?"

"Old Lady, my ears may be deaf, but my eyes are not clouded."

"My heart is as clear as a mirror."

"I know you have always been thinking of Qin Qin Huairu."

The Deaf Old Lady patted Seeing Seeing Shazhu's thigh and asked.

Hearing Qin Qin Huairu's name, Seeing Seeing Shazhu immediately hesitated.

Qin Qin Huairu was the white moonlight in his heart.

But a great mountain stood between the two of them.

As long as Jia Jia Zhangshi was alive, there was no way he could marry Qin Qin Huairu and bring her home.

If Jia Jia Zhangshi were to kick the bucket within three or five years, he would be willing to wait longer.

But Jia Jia Zhangshi could eat and drink well, was plump and fair, and lived more comfortably than anyone else.

If things continued like this, even if he grew white-haired, Jia Jia Zhangshi might not kick the bucket.

How could he wait then?

He couldn't afford to wait!

Seeing Seeing Shazhu smiled bitterly: "Old Lady, I want to marry Qin Qin Huairu as my wife, but Jia Jia Zhangshi will never agree."

The Deaf Old Lady smiled happily: "Zhuizi! It's good you've come to your senses; the waters of the Jia family are too deep for you to handle."

The Deaf Old Lady took out a stack of grain coupons from her pillowcase: "Beloved grandson, carry me on your back, and let's go to Matchmaker Wang's house together."

"Even if I, an old lady, have to risk my life, I must see my beloved grandson get a wife."

Seeing this, Seeing Seeing Shazhu was so moved his eyes turned red; he carried the old lady out of the room.

Jia Jia Zhangshi was stitching shoe soles at the doorway and laughed: "Zhuizi! Where are you carrying the Deaf Old Lady off to?"

The Deaf Old Lady patted Seeing Seeing Shazhu: "It's too stuffy inside; I'm going out to soak up some sun."

Jia Jia Zhangshi looked up at the gloomy sky: "Soaking up the sun is good! Soaking up the sun is good."

Leaning close to Seeing Seeing Shazhu's ear, the Deaf Old Lady whispered: "If you want to marry a wife, from now on, don't manage anyone in the Jia family."

With mixed feelings, Seeing Seeing Shazhu nodded: "Understood, Grandma."

Watching Seeing Seeing Shazhu carry the Deaf Old Lady away, Jia Jia Zhangshi frowned displeasedly:

"One fool and one deaf person!"

"Soaking up the sun on a cloudy day? Trying to fool a ghost?"

"Hiding and sneaking around; they surely aren't up to anything good!"

Jia Jia Zhangshi put down the shoe sole and tiptoed out to chase after them.

She wanted to see what mischief these two were up to.

If she could catch them with something incriminating, she could extort some benefits.

But by the time she chased out of the courtyard, the two were already gone.

Seeing Seeing Shazhu was strong and healthy; carrying an old lady, he still walked faster than Jia Jia Zhangshi.

This left Jia Jia Zhangshi extremely disappointed; she cursed and grumbled as she went back to continue stitching shoe soles.

Red Star Rolling Mill

Cao Cao Weiguo was in the kitchen teaching two apprentices how to cook.

He was also practicing his skills, which had become a bit rusty.

Lately, he had been running around outside all day.

When he got home, he just ate ready-made meals,

so he rarely cooked anymore.

He had delivered the last batch of supplies before the end of the month.

He had completed the task assigned by Director Tan.

So he had returned to his normal work and life,

drinking tea and reading newspapers every day, occasionally visiting the kitchen to cook.

Secretly meeting with his beautiful confidante for some private intimacy.

This little life was simply wonderful!

"Director Cao is busy!"

Cao Cao Weiguo was watching Liu Liu Limin stir-fry.

A man wearing glasses walked in with a smile.

Cao Cao Weiguo turned to look at the sound and smiled:

"Isn't this Major Liu? What do you need from me?"

The major's name was Liu Neng; it was said he was a relative of Deputy Factory Director Li.

Although he had only recently joined the Administrative Section, he had deeply earned Deputy Factory Director Li's trust.

Now he was specifically tasked with conveying messages and handling affairs for Deputy Factory Director Li.

Liu Gan walked over and smiled, "Director Cao, please stop making fun of me!"

"I am just a small clerk; how could I possibly deserve the title of a senior clerk?"

"However, I did come to see you regarding a matter."

"Deputy Factory Director Li has something to discuss with you. Director Tan arrived and has been talking with Deputy Factory Director Li for a long time."

Hearing this, Cao Cao Weiguo grasped Liu Gan's hand and said gratefully, "Clerk Liu, thank you. I'll treat you to a drink another day."

Liu Gan didn't say much, but the single piece of information that "Director Tan has arrived" was enough.

Liu Gan kindly reminded Cao Cao Weiguo, also hoping to strengthen the friendship between the two.

Everyone helps each other; how wonderful it is to live in harmony.

Cao Cao Weiguo followed Liu Gan to Deputy Factory Director Li's office.

Liu Gan helped knock and announce, while Cao Cao Weiguo walked in quietly and carefully.

"Director Tan! Factory Director Li!"

"Comrade Cao Weiguo, please take a seat!"

Director Tan rose with a beaming smile to greet him, while Deputy Factory Director Li personally served a cup of tea.

This left Cao Cao Weiguo somewhat "overwhelmed by the honor" and momentarily "at a loss for what to do."

It also left Liu Gan deeply shocked, viewing Cao Cao Weiguo with new respect.

Director Tan got straight to the point and smiled, "Comrade Cao Weiguo!"

"I have come to see you this time to commend your contributions on behalf of the Industrial Bureau."

"Thanks to your hard work, we have successfully completed the reception duties..."

"In addition to verbal commendation, the Industrial Bureau will also provide you with material rewards."

"If you have any difficulties in your daily life or need any assistance, please speak up."

"Deputy Factory Director Li and I will certainly do our best to help you resolve them."

"This is to ensure you have no worries, allowing you to make even greater contributions to national construction."

Deputy Factory Director Li said warmly, "Cao Weiguo! You must not be so reserved or polite!"

"This is a token of appreciation from the leaders of the Industrial Bureau."

"You must not let down the leaders' good intentions."

"Speak freely about whatever you need."

This time, Cao Cao Weiguo alone completed a procurement task worth nearly ten thousand yuan.

Moreover, the quality of the delivered procurement supplies was superior.

The quality of the beef, mutton, chicken, duck, fish, and other items was even better than that from the breeding farm.

Director Tan exceeded the procurement target, and the superior leadership specifically issued a commendation.
