"Brother Zhou, I wholeheartedly want to marry you and live a happy life."
"Sister, me too, it's really hard to live alone."
Seeing that the time had come, Mrs. Jia and Zhang raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and an imperceptible light flashed in her eyes. She enthusiastically invited Old Man Zhou: "Brother Zhou, we are so in love with each other, so you can come to my house for dinner tonight. We can have a good time again."
Let’s talk about the future, and I will personally cook some special dishes for you.”
When Old Man Zhou heard this, he hesitated for a moment. He scratched his head and said, "Isn't this... too fast? We have just met, so this is not good." Although he was a little moved by Jia Zhang's proposal, he had not thought about it for many years.
The cautiousness with which he came made him feel that the matter was a bit hasty.
But Jia Zhang held his arm tightly and said coquettishly: "Brother Zhou, look at you, you are still shy? We are all at this age, how can we be so particular. I just want to get along with you more.
, let’s get to know each other sooner.”
Old man Zhou was still a little embarrassed. He frowned and was very conflicted. On the one hand, he longed to have a companion and had some affection for Jia Zhang. On the other hand, he felt a little uncomfortable going to the other party's house so soon.
It's in line with common sense. What if there is any problem?
Mrs. Jia Zhang saw what Old Zhou was thinking. She rolled her eyes and revealed a subtle and cunning smile on her lips. She took Old Zhou's hand and said in a more affectionate tone: "Brother Zhou, don't hesitate. I'm at home."
I have two children, Bangjian and Xiaohuaihua, who are both sensible and filial children. I have been looking forward to introducing them to you. If you are with me, they will definitely treat you as my child.
Treat them like family members."
After hearing this, old man Zhou felt a ripple in his heart. He had always liked children, and the thought of having such a family atmosphere made his desire a little stronger. Looking at Jia Zhang's eyes full of expectation, he really couldn't bear to refuse.
, and couldn't find a suitable reason to shirk it. So, he sighed deeply, as if he had made a lot of determination, and said: "Okay, sister, I will go to your house and have a look."
Mrs. Jia Zhang was secretly happy, with a happy smile on her face, "Brother Zhou, don't worry, I will definitely make your life comfortable tonight."
As soon as Mrs. Jia Zhang entered the house, she couldn't wait to tell Banggen and Xiaohuaihua that Old Zhou was coming to the house for dinner. When Banggen and Xiaohuaihua heard this, they were stunned, with doubtful expressions on their faces.
Little Sophora japonica frowned and asked: "Grandma, how did you get him to come to our house? Is this reliable?"
Jia Zhang smiled proudly, with a cunning light in her eyes, "Humph, what do you know? This is a good opportunity. As long as we get him drunk at night and make him dizzy, we will definitely get it to the warehouse.
Key. When the time comes, we can take the opportunity to steal things from the warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative."
Banggeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he patted his thigh excitedly, "Grandma, you are so smart! Why didn't I think of that? If this happens, we will make a fortune."
Little Sophora Flower also nodded repeatedly, "Grandma, you are so awesome! But we have to be careful not to let him discover our plan."
Jia Zhang said confidently: "Don't worry, I'm here. You two should be smarter tonight and cooperate with me."
Jia Zhang shouted at the top of her voice to Qin Huairu who was busy: "Qin Huairu, cook more dishes tonight, guests are coming." Qin Huairu responded in the kitchen, wiped her hands and came out and asked: "
Who is coming?" Mrs. Jia Zhang said proudly: "Old man Zhou is the one who looks after the warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative. I invited him to my house for dinner today."
When Qin Huairu heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She looked at Banggeng and Xiaohuaihua, and found that there was an unusual light flashing in their eyes, and she immediately understood something. Qin Huairu had always thought that Banggeng and Xiaohuaihua had said something before.
The plan to steal things was just a child's gibberish, but I didn't expect that they would actually take action.
Qin Huairu's face turned pale. She quickly pulled Jia Zhang aside and said anxiously: "Mom, we can't do this kind of thing. This is a crime. If we are caught, our whole family will be in danger."
Ruined.”
When Jia Zhang heard this, her expression suddenly dropped, her eyes widened, she raised her hand and pointed at Qin Huairu's nose and cursed: "You worthless thing, what do you know? What a great opportunity this is, if it succeeds,
Our family won’t have to live a hard life in the future. You just know how to talk nonsense, so don’t pour cold water on me here.”
With tears in her eyes, Qin Huairu continued to persuade: "Mom, no matter how poor we are, we can't do such illegal things. Just listen to my advice."
Mrs. Jia Zhang frowned and looked at Qin Huairu impatiently, "You know how to cry. What's the use of crying? Don't you know what the situation is now? Xiaodang, that girl's wings are hard, and she won't care about us anymore. From now on,
Don't expect her to provide for us in our old age. If we don't find a way to make some money ourselves, we will have no choice but to drink from the northwest wind when we get old. This is a good opportunity for us to live a good life, so don't make trouble here."
Qin Huairu's face was filled with helplessness, tears welling up in her eyes. She knew that once Jia Zhang made a decision, even nine cows could not pull her back. After sighing deeply, she could only choose to compromise, wiped her tears, and prepared to go
Make arrangements for dinner.
But when she checked the kitchen at home, Qin Huairu was in trouble again. The Jia family was extremely poor and there was no decent food at all. After much thought, she decided to borrow half a catty of meat from Sha Zhu's house.
Qin Huairu came to Shazhu's house and as soon as he knocked on the door, Yu Juhua blocked the door with a look of boredom. Before Qin Huairu could speak, Yu Juhua said angrily: "Why are you here? You want to borrow something again? Our house
This is not a soup kitchen."
Qin Huairu said with a flattering smile: "Girl Juhua, I am really in a hurry this time. Our mother is going on a blind date. As you know, my mother has been alone for half her life. It is not easy to have such an opportunity. I am my daughter-in-law."
, I have to help make this matter more respectable. Do you think I can lend you half a catty of meat?"
When Yu Juhua heard this, her brows furrowed even more tightly, her eyes full of disdain, "Humph, Qin Huairu, stop being so pretentious here. I still don't know who you are? You are a vampire. Every time you come here,
Our family either borrows this or that, and you have never paid it back. Don't think that I don't know your thoughts, you just want to take advantage of our family."
Qin Huairu's smile froze on her face, and a trace of embarrassment and grievance flashed in her eyes, "Girl Juhua, how can you say that? I am doing this for the sake of this family. This is really a special situation, so please help me."
Just once."
Yu Juhua was unmoved at all. She crossed her arms and said resolutely: "I don't care what your reasons are, I won't lend it to you anyway. Just go away and don't come to our house again." With that, Yu Juhua was unmoved.
The chrysanthemum stretched out its hand to close the door.
Qin Huairu hurriedly reached out to block the door, wanting to fight for it again, "Girl Chrysanthemum, you..."
Yu Juhua pushed hard and pushed Qin Huairu out of the door. She closed the door with a bang and muttered: "Huh, don't pester her again."
Qin Huairu stood outside the door, angry and anxious, with tears in her eyes. She knew that she would never be able to borrow it this time, so she could only leave in despair.
After Si Zhu came back, Yu Juhua told him about Qin Huairu coming to borrow meat. Si Zhu's eyes widened with astonishment on his face, "What? She came to borrow something again? Why is Qin Huairu always like this?"
Yu Juhua rolled her eyes at Si Zhu, "Humph, you don't know her yet? She is just a greedy person. She also said that Jia and Zhang were on a blind date. Who knows if it is true or not, I will not be fooled by her."
Silly Zhu's focus is not on Qin Huairu borrowing things, but on Jia Zhang.
"What? Jia and Zhang are on a blind date? Why is she suddenly going on a blind date? This is a bit strange."
Yu Juhua curled her lips, "Who knows? Anyway, I think this matter is not simple. With her character, how can she find a wife so easily? There must be some conspiracy that we don't know about."
Silly Zhu frowned, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes, "If there is really a problem with this matter, we can't let her do anything random in our yard. No, we have to find someone to discuss it, and we have to make this matter clear, and don't let it happen then.
It’s a big mess.”
Yu Juhua agreed, "Yes, we need to find someone to discuss it. I think brother Donglai can find a way. Let's talk to him?"
Silly Zhu ran all the way to the door of Li Donglai's house, raised his hand and knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened and Ding Qiunan appeared at the door.
"Shazhu? Why are you here?" Ding Qiunan looked at Shazhu with some confusion.
Silly Zhu said breathlessly: "Sister-in-law, I have something to tell Brother Donglai. Is he at home?"
Ding Qiunan shook his head, "He hasn't come back from the factory yet. Do you have something urgent to do with him?"
Silly Zhu sat on the steps in front of Li Donglai's house for a while, looking towards the entrance of the alley from time to time. Not long after, Li Donglai's figure appeared at the entrance of the alley, and he was striding home. Silly Zhu quickly stood up.
, greeted him.
"Brother Donglai, you're finally back. I've been waiting for you here for a long time." Sha Zhu said anxiously.
Li Donglai was a little surprised, "Silly Zhu? What do you want from me? You are so anxious."
Silly Zhu pulled Li Donglai to the side and said in a low voice: "Brother Donglai, let me tell you something. Do you know that Jia and Zhang are going on a blind date?"
Li Donglai frowned, "Blind date? This morning I saw Mrs. Jia Zhang dressed strangely, and she was hesitant when I asked her, what's going on here?"
Silly Zhu told the story of Qin Huairu going to his house to borrow meat in detail, and then said with doubts on his face: "Both Juhua and I thought this was too strange. Jia Zhang didn't have such an idea before, and this suddenly happened."
When I come out like this, I feel like I am planning something."
Li Donglai's eyes became serious. As he listened, he recalled Jia Zhang's colorful and panicked look in the morning, and he felt more and more that something was wrong. "Huh, this Jia Zhang must have no good intentions. From what I know about her, she
If you suddenly want to go on a blind date at such an old age, you are definitely acting like a monster."
Silly Zhu also nodded, "I think so too, brother Donglai, what do you think we should do? We can't let her wander around in the yard."
Li Donglai pondered for a moment and looked at Silly Zhu firmly, "Sinzhu, you go back first, and then find an opportunity to stare at Jia Zhang. See what she wants to do. If you find anything wrong, tell me immediately.
"
Silly Zhu patted his chest and said loudly: "Brother Donglai, don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me. I will definitely keep an eye on her and I will never let her succeed." After saying this, Silly Zhu said
Turn around and walk home
Looking at Shazhu's back, Li Donglai frowned.
The courtyard was finally quiet for a while, but the Jia family started to make trouble again!
The other side.
Qin Huairu bravely arrived at the door of Yi Zhonghai's house. He hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and knocked on the door. The door opened, and Yi Zhonghai stood inside. When he saw it was Qin Huairu, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Qin Huairu? What are you doing?" Yi Zhonghai asked.
Qin Huairu smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle Yi, I'm here to ask you for a favor. As you know, our mother is going on a blind date, and there really isn't any decent food at home. I want to borrow half a catty of meat from you to cope with today."
Late dinner.”
When Yi Zhonghai heard that it was Jia and Zhang who were going on a blind date, alarm bells rang in his heart. His little eyes rolled around and he thought: "This is not an easy matter. Maybe there is some opportunity for me to regain control of the yard."
After all, it’s time to become a master again.”
Just when he was about to agree, the aunt beside him frowned and said, "We don't have much meat left at home, so we can't borrow it."
Yi Zhonghai's face darkened and he glared at the aunt, "What do you know!" Then he smiled and said to Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, don't listen to her. I'll lend you this meat. It's all the same.
Those in the yard need help."
Qin Huairu's face showed a grateful look, "Uncle Yi, thank you so much. When our family is rich, we will definitely pay you back."
After Qin Huairu left, the aunt muttered dissatisfiedly: "Why did you lend her the meat? We don't even have enough to eat ourselves."
Yi Zhonghai grabbed the aunt, dragged her into the house, closed the door, and scolded in a low voice: "You are a woman with long hair and short knowledge, what do you know? There must be something wrong with the Jia Zhang family's blind date, if
If I play a role in this matter and solve it, the people in the yard will not think of me again. By then, I will be able to become a master again."
The eldest mother still didn't understand, "Is it worth it just for the position of a eldest son?"
Yi Zhonghai narrowed his eyes, revealing a treacherous look, "Do you think, as long as I become a master again, everything in this yard will have to be obeyed by me in the future? Can we still lack meat? That's it
There is meat every day. This little half a pound of meat is nothing, it is an investment, do you understand?"
Auntie was a little shaken by Yi Zhonghai's words, but she was still a little reluctant, "But what if this thing is not as good as you think?"
Yi Zhonghai waved his hand impatiently, "Don't worry about it, just do as I say. I must seize this opportunity this time and not let it slip away in vain." The aunt sighed helplessly.
She felt that Yi Zhonghai had gone too far and could not be persuaded by persuasion alone.
I just hope that Li Donglai can be more gentle when dealing with Yi Zhonghai in the future.
What? Yi Zhonghai defeated Li Donglai? How is this possible!
