Chapter 842: Old Yi Plays Matchmaker

Red Star Sihe Academy

Yi Yi Zhonghai dragged Sha Zhu into the Jia family's house. Jia Jia Zhangshi complained with a sour look: "Sha Zhu, how long has it been? Is Bang Geng's job settled yet? If you don't have the diamond drill, don't take on the porcelain work. You're just wasting our Bang Geng's time."

Sha Zhu handed the mesh bag and lunch box to Qin Qin Huairu and said with a depressed expression: "Soon, just wait a little longer. Although there are no job quotas in the factory, Factory Manager Yang has called the neighborhood office, and there should be a reply in these few days."

Qin Qin Huairu looked happy: "That's great. Sha Zhuzi, thank you for your hard work. Bang Geng, look at your Sha Uncle running around for your business, why don't you thank him?"

Bang Geng snorted: "Let's wait until it's settled. Who knows if it's true or false."

Yi Yi Zhonghai said with a kind face: "Look at you, child. When has your Sha Uncle ever bragged or made empty promises? You just wait for good news."

Sha Zhu ignored Bang Geng and turned to Qin Qin Huairu with a smile: "Qin Huairu, I know your family's grain coupons have been tight lately, and you haven't eaten meat for a long time. Look, Factory Manager Yang entertained leaders from a brother unit today, and I specifically saved a plate of Moo Shu Pork for you to improve your food."

Qin Qin Huairu opened the lunch box, and Jia Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng's eyes lit up. Yi Yi Zhonghai was also swallowing his saliva on the side. The oily meat slices looked tempting.

Qin Qin Huairu said with emotion: "Sha Zhuzi, I don't know how to thank you. My family's grain coupons ran out in the middle of the month, and we eat corn buns and corn porridge every meal, making the whole family have no strength to walk. Bang Geng has lost several pounds from hunger. This is all thanks to you, otherwise, my family would be finished. What does meat even look like?"

Well! ===== CHAPTER 1591 =====

Qin Qin Huairu didn't forget to cry poor and sell misery while thanking him, winning a burst of pity from Sha Zhu, who said foolishly: "Qin Huairu, why didn't you tell me when your family ran out of grain coupons? You wait, I'll go home and get you some coupons right now. You can go to the vegetable market to buy meat tomorrow."

Watching Sha Zhu turn and leave, Yi Yi Zhonghai said meaningfully to Qin Qin Huairu and Jia Jia Zhangshi: "Old sister-in-law, Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu is pure by nature, honest, and has a naturally warm heart. He is diligent and serious at work. Your family's life is not easy, relying entirely on Qin Huairu's salary. When will those bitter days end? Your family needs a good man like Sha Zhu."

Bang Geng looked at Yi Yi Zhonghai sinisterly: "You don't need to worry about my family's business. When I get a job, I will earn money to support the family, and we won't need Sha Zhu anymore."

Jia Jia Zhangshi beamed: "Look, look, my eldest grandson is promising. Yi Yi Zhonghai, don't be a busybody there. The men of our Jia family aren't dead yet. With my eldest grandson here, my Jia family won't collapse. Sha Zhu wants to marry my daughter-in-law? Bah! He's a toad wanting to eat swan meat!"

Yi Yi Zhonghai frowned: "Old sister-in-law, don't speak too soon. Not to mention that Bang Geng doesn't have a job yet, even if he did, how much salary can a newcomer have? Even if he can solve your family's food and clothing, what about his future marriage and children? Look at your family, old and young, squeezed into this one house. Does Bang Geng have to squeeze in with you after he gets married, takes a wife, and has children?"

Jia Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng's faces changed instantly, and Qin Qin Huairu couldn't help but feel worried.

Yi Yi Zhonghai seduced them: "Old sister-in-law, Bang Geng, I know you look down on Sha Zhu, but Sha Zhu's conditions are really good, and he is honest and reliable. He has a house and a salary, and Factory Manager Yang has a good relationship with him, which is known to the whole factory. With this relationship, Sha Zhu will definitely fly high in the future. Qin Huairu, haven't you heard? It won't be long before Sha Zhu becomes the cafeteria director. If your two families become one, the Jia family's situation will be different immediately."

Jia Jia Zhangshi, Bang Geng, and Qin Qin Huairu were all moved. According to Yi Yi Zhonghai, if these two families became one, Sha Zhu's house and money would all belong to the Jia family, and Bang Geng's wedding house and bride price would all be taken care of.

Yi Yi Zhonghai added: "Don't look at the fact that Sha Zhu is divorced, but Sha Zhu's conditions are obvious. He has a house and a job, and many matchmakers have started introducing objects to Sha Zhu."

Hearing that matchmakers were introducing objects to Sha Zhu, the faces of Jia Jia Zhangshi, Bang Geng, and Qin Qin Huairu all changed.

Jia Jia Zhangshi said with a gloomy face: "Is this Sha Zhu stinking dog shit? Why is he so attractive to flies? He's only been divorced for a few days."

Bang Geng said indignantly: "Those matchmakers are all blind. They don't introduce objects to me, a young man, but instead arrange things for Sha Zhu, that divorced fool. Their eyeballs should be gouged out and stepped on like bubbles!"

Qin Qin Huairu said nervously: "First Uncle, is what you said true? Matchmakers have started introducing objects to Sha Zhu?"

Yi Yi Zhonghai smiled: "When have I ever lied? Two days ago, Auntie Wang told me that her distant niece, who is only twenty-six this year, whose husband died in the line of duty, has been single and unmarried. She is preparing to let the two meet and wants to pair Sha Zhu and her niece together."

Jia Jia Zhangshi cursed: "Bah! This Auntie Wang must have taken fake medicine and ruined her brain. For a little matchmaker's fee, she pushes her own niece into the fire pit of Sha Zhu. Isn't she afraid of retribution later?"

Qin Qin Huairu hurriedly said: "First Uncle, did Auntie Wang say when she would let them meet? Has Sha Zhu said what he thinks?"

Yi Yi Zhonghai said: "Hey, Auntie Wang's niece is from the countryside, and Sha Zhu is a bit unwilling. However, Sha Zhu is also anxious to get married and doesn't want to be single all the time. I think if Auntie Wang comes one or two more times, Sha Zhu will be persuaded."

Bang Geng suddenly said from the side: "First Uncle, is Auntie Wang's niece pretty? Otherwise, let Auntie Wang introduce her niece to me. I'm much better than that fool Sha Zhu."

Jia Jia Zhangshi hurriedly opposed: "Bang Geng, what are you saying? Auntie Wang's niece is a widow and from the countryside. How can she be worthy of you? In the future, you must marry a young girl from the city. Don't be stupid. Marrying a girl from the countryside is like marrying a burden, just like your mother. She has no dowry, just a mouth to eat, no grain book, no job, and will only drag down her husband."

Qin Qin Huairu's face looked ugly with anger, and Bang Geng muttered from the side: "I know, I was just saying it casually."

Without letting this topic continue, Sha Zhu came back excitedly with grain coupons: "Qin Huairu, here you go. This is thirty catties of grain coupons, you take them and use them."

Qin Qin Huairu was surprised: "So many! Sha Zhu, where did you get so many grain coupons?"

Thirty catties of grain coupons could not be saved just by being frugal.

Sha Zhu said triumphantly: "This was given to me by the big leader's wife when I went out to cook for the big leader. You can use them with peace of mind. If you run out, you can come to me anytime. As long as I'm here, I guarantee I won't let you go hungry."

Qin Qin Huairu clutched the grain coupons, staring at Sha Zhu with affectionate eyes, and said coquettishly: "Sha Zhuzi, you are so kind."

This made Sha Zhu so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and he felt like he was floating, happier than if he had picked up money. ===== CHAPTER 1592 =====
