Chapter 3: The Deaf Old Lady Begins

Now Shazhu has been replaced and the true nature of the deaf old lady has been clearly seen.

This old lady is nice to Sha Zhu, but that is just a means to control Sha Zhu. If she really wants to be nice to Sha Zhu, she would not help Yi Zhonghai to give advice and deceive Sha Zhu.

Liu Haizhong died in 1990. Before he died, he had a conversation with He Daqing, telling him about Sha Zhu's care for the elderly in the orphanage.

Yi Zhonghai told Liu Haizhong that the deaf old lady gave Yi Zhonghai advice at the end of 1965, saying that in the entire courtyard, the only person who could take care of them in their old age was Sha Zhu.

He Daqing told Sha Zhu, but it was of no use as Sha Zhu didn't care at all at that time.

But if you think about it carefully, you can see the conspiracy.

The end of 1965, what time was that?
Sha Zhu took the blame for Bang Geng and became a famous chicken thief in the neighborhood. His reputation was already bad, and now it got even worse. It can be said that at that time, Sha Zhu had basically given up hope of finding a wife.

It just so happened that at that time, the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai had agreed to take Sha Zhu as their elderly care provider.

It would be impossible if there was no connection between them.

What they want is an obedient Sha Zhu who can take care of them wholeheartedly. And a Sha Zhu who can't find a wife is the most satisfactory Sha Zhu for them.

As for the fact that the deaf old lady later introduced Lou Xiao'e to Sha Zhu, it was just a means to check and balance Qin Huairu.

After the chicken theft incident, Sha Zhu's mind was firmly controlled by Qin Huairu. Without specific instructions, Sha Zhu would not even think of the deaf old lady in the backyard.

In 1966, Sha Zhu met the noble man in his life - the big leader. He went to the big leader's house many times to cook, and each time he brought back several lunch boxes of meat and vegetables, but the deaf old lady didn't eat a single bite.

Finally, the deaf old lady was forced into no choice but to trick Lou Xiao'e into living in her house. She also used the excuse of cooking for Lou Xiao'e to get to taste Sha Zhu's cooking again.

Thinking of this, Sha Zhu felt that he should stay away from the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady in front of him had not yet formed the retirement group with Yi Zhonghai that everyone in the Siheyuan was afraid of, but she had already shown signs of merging together.

In the past year, most of the deaf old lady's eating, drinking, defecating and urinating were taken care of by an aunt.

No one can stop the trend of two desperate families banding together for warmth.

If he gets involved with the deaf old lady, he will be involved with Yi Zhonghai, and if he gets involved with Yi Zhonghai, he will inevitably have to involve the Jia family and all the elderly people in the courtyard.

Then Sha Zhu's fate will most likely return to what it was before.

If that really happens, He Yuzhu might as well find a piece of tofu and kill himself.

So, facing the concern of the deaf old lady, Sha Zhu did not move at all. Instead, he said to He Daqing: "Dad, I'm going to work."

He Daqing looked at his son in surprise. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find the reason.

What he hated most was Sha Zhu's contact with the deaf old lady. This damn old woman stared at the lunch box in his hand all day long.

He gave the lunch box to the old woman and asked her what to eat.

"Go!"

After getting He Daqing's consent, Sha Zhu immediately trotted out of the central courtyard.

When the deaf old lady saw this scene, her face suddenly turned dark, and He Yushui was so scared that she hugged He Daqing's thigh tightly.

He Daqing sensed his precious daughter's fear, looked down at her, and said gently, "Don't be afraid, come home with Dad. We'll pack up, and you can go to work with Dad."

He Yushui nodded obediently and went home holding He Daqing's clothes.

Seeing this, the deaf old lady became even angrier. She twitched her lips and cursed in a low voice, saying that she was ungrateful and shameless. Sha Zhu ran all the way and when he passed by the breakfast stand, he remembered that he had not eaten breakfast. Smelling the fragrance from the breakfast stand, his stomach started to growl.

People at that time seldom ate breakfast to save money, but he, a man from later times, did not have this habit.

He felt his pocket and found that he had no money. So he gave up the fried dough sticks and buns, took out a piece of chocolate from the space, and quickly put it into his mouth.

Soon, I arrived at Emei Hotel and met my former master, Wu Bangming.

To be honest, this master is very good to Shazhu. Apart from being strict with Shazhu, there is nothing wrong with him.

Sha Zhu's temper offends people easily. If you don't ask him to be strict, you won't trust him to finish his apprenticeship. Doing so is also teaching Sha Zhu the principles of being a human being.

Unfortunately, Wu Bangming didn't know that Sha Zhu lived among a group of people with ulterior motives. They whispered in Sha Zhu's ears all day long to sow discord between them, eventually leading to a breakup.

"master."

When Wu Bangming saw Sha Zhu, he asked, "You came a little late today. Did anything happen?"

Sha Zhu directly put the blame on He Daqing: "My father drank last night and took it out on me. I couldn't sleep until the second half of the night."

Wu Bangming snorted: "Your father is so old, but he is still so out of touch. When I have the chance, I will definitely teach him a lesson. Okay, go back to work!"

Sha Zhu thought to himself that there would be no chance in this life.

According to the memory of the previous life, He Daqing was going to leave for Baoding with the White Widow in October. When he came back in 1986, Wu Bangming had been dead for seven or eight years.

Although Sha Zhu knew that He Daqing would go to Baoding, he did not think of stopping He Daqing. Just as He Daqing did not want to have another mother, how could Sha Zhu want to have another father?

I have hands, feet, a job, and abilities. More importantly, I know how the future will develop, and I have room to cheat. I don't need He Daqing at all.

Even if He Daqing doesn't leave, Sha Zhu will find a way to find a wife for He Daqing and let him become a son-in-law.

I don’t need to worry too much about the schemes of those beasts in the hospital. As long as I have no morals, they won’t be able to morally blackmail me.

There are many reasons why Sha Zhu was deceived by those people.

The kindness of the deaf old lady, the severity of Yi Zhonghai, and the tenderness of Qin Huairu are all linked together. Not to mention Sha Zhu, even the steel mill and many people on the street were deceived by them.

Didn’t you see that later, when the deaf old lady used Lou Xiaoe to seduce Sha Zhu, she didn’t dare to completely turn against Qin Huairu?

The deaf old lady knew very well that their methods against Sha Zhu were a trinity, none of which could be missing. Without Qin Huairu's beauty trap, Sha Zhu would be seduced by other women. Once someone whispered in Sha Zhu's ear, she, the grandmother of the Eighth Route Army, would really be an Eighth Route Army.

Similarly, Qin Huairu did not dare to quarrel with the deaf old lady. Without the support of the deaf old lady, Sha Zhu would be a wild horse that could not be reined in. If she wanted to control Sha Zhu, she would have to make great sacrifices. At least she could not trick Sha Zhu into giving her money and lunch box by just holding his hand.

Yi Zhonghai is the one who controls Shazhu's steering wheel, always keeping Shazhu on their predetermined track.

Sha Zhu won't give them any chance now. Even if the legendary widow comes to the courtyard, she can't cause any trouble.

You know, the legendary widow was fully awakened after Jia Dongxu's death. When Jia Dongxu was alive, she could only practice silently and learn from Jia Zhang's experience of being a widow.

Until Jia Dongxu died, Jia Zhang would not teach her the housekeeping skills.

Another condition that is more favorable to Shazhu is that before the legendary widow opened the dungeon, the target of the pension group was Jia Dongxu. Yi Zhonghai and his wife and the deaf old lady all thought that Jia Dongxu was the most suitable person to take care of them in their old age.

Sha Zhu was a casual move made by the deaf old lady. He was the cook who would cook for her after Sha Zhu's cooking skills became perfect. He was the wallet that Yi Zhonghai found for the Jia family because he was unwilling to pay for it.
