Siheyuan: Traveling through Cai Quanwu, pretending to be Uncle Shazhu

At the dinner table, Cai Quanwu and his sister Sha Zhu were eating noodles and drinking fish soup.

"Zhu Zi, this fish is well stewed, fresh and delicious, and paired with bread, it's absolutely amazing."

Cai Quanwu took a sip of the fish soup, a look of satisfaction on his face was beyond words, and he praised Sha Zhu's cooking skills.

"Uncle, if you like it, eat more."

Sha Zhu was very touched by Cai Quanwu's praise.

"Yeah, I'll definitely eat one more bowl."

"By the way, Yushui, eat slowly and be careful of fish bones."

While eating, Cai Quanwu reminded He Yushui to be careful.

Fish have many small bones and it is easy to get stuck if you are not careful.

"I know, uncle."

He Yushui was eating with gusto. When he heard Cai Quanwu's words, he responded with a smile.

As Sha Zhu was eating, he recalled what Xiao Wu had said to him in the afternoon, and said to Cai Quanwu:

"By the way, uncle, Xiao Wu said that you like her foreign classmate and she plans to introduce her foreign classmate to you as your wife."

"Uncle, what do you think? Xiao Wu looks like a foreigner. He looks weird and ugly."

"If you want to find a wife, why not ask a matchmaker to introduce one to you."

He Yushui was eating happily when he heard Sha Zhu say that Cai Quanwu was looking for a wife. He stopped and stared at Cai Quanwu, as if he wanted to see if what Sha Zhu said was true.

Unexpectedly, before He Yushui could even open his mouth, Cai Quanwu frowned and scolded Sha Zhu with a dark face after hearing what Sha Zhu said.

"What foreign devil, what's that, speaking so harshly?"

"They are a minority, a minority ethnic group."

"There are 56 ethnic groups in the country now, not just us Han people."

"Don't keep silent about the foreign devils in the future. If you open your mouth about the foreign devils, you will be accused of destroying national unity. Let's see what you will do."

"Also, Zhuzi, are you blind? How is Guan Jiaqi ugly?"

Sha Zhu felt that he had no way to refute Cai Quanwu’s previous words.

However, I think the following words are debatable.

Shazhu never thought Guan Jiaqi was that pretty.

"Uncle, I recognize everyone else, but Xiao Wu... Ugh, that classmate, I really don't think he's good-looking, he's far inferior to Xiao Wu."

Seeing that Sha Zhu was so stubborn, Cai Quanwu didn't want to argue with him anymore.

Just pretend that you are a fool and cannot appreciate this exotic beauty.

"Okay, no matter what they look like, it has nothing to do with you. Remember, don't say this in front of others again."

"You think I'm ugly?"

"You think others are ugly, and they think you are old."

As soon as Cai Quanwu finished speaking, He Yushui suddenly choked and coughed a few times, almost spitting out what he was eating.

When things returned to normal, He Yushui laughed without caring about his image.

"Hahaha."

He Yushui laughed so hard that he was out of breath, which made Sha Zhu and Cai Quanwu confused.

"My brother is ugly but wants to be beautiful."

After He Yushui finished laughing, he used an inappropriate word to describe Sha Zhu.

After saying that, He Yushui laughed even louder.

"Go, go, go, you are showing off."

Seeing that He Yushui dared to make fun of him, Sha Zhu glared at He Yushui and said viciously.

Cai Quanwu was also amused by He Yushui's words and couldn't help but praise him.

"Yushui, you are such a clever little ghost."

"Although your words were not expressed appropriately, they did speak out your brother's true feelings."

"He is just ugly, but has beautiful dreams."

"Hehehe."

When He Yushui heard what Cai Quanwu said, he couldn't help laughing again.

Sha Zhu was teased by Cai Quanwu and He Yushui in turn. He had no place to vent his anger, so he picked up a piece of cake and bit into it viciously.

But I was wondering in my heart, what does it mean to be ugly but have beautiful dreams?

Where am I ugly?

This is called maturity, do you understand?

Also, what do you mean it has nothing to do with me?

If Xiao Wu really introduces her to you and she becomes my aunt, that would be a huge deal.

I can't call anyone when I meet someone.

Seeing Sha Zhu remaining silent, Cai Quanwu thought that Sha Zhu was hurt by what he and He Yushui said, and wondered if he should comfort him.

Then I thought of Sha Zhu’s big mouth and decided to give up.

This guy, if you give him some color he can open a dyeing factory.

Cai Quanwu also decided to say hello to Xiao Wu when he went to work tomorrow, and not to tell Sha Zhu about this in advance.

Cai Quanwu was really worried about Sha Zhu's words.

Don't let the matter be left unsolved and then be spread by Sha Zhu to everyone in the courtyard.

After looking at Sha Zhu who was eating with a gloomy face, Cai Quanwu and He Yushui made eye contact, and tacitly said nothing more and buried their heads in eating.

Cai Quanwu ate to his heart's content during this meal and felt a little full at the end.

After eating and drinking his fill, Cai Quanwu pushed the bowl and chopsticks aside, touched his stomach, and felt very satisfied.

Cai Quanwu didn't have enough to eat at noon, so he made up for it in the evening.

It’s not that Cai is not pretentious, he really is not used to eating Donglaishun.

Thinking that the taste of Donglaishun would get worse and worse, Cai Quanwu decided not to go there in the future.

……

The next day.

As soon as Cai Quanwu got to work, before he went to look for Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu came to him first.

"Uncle, did Brother Zhuzi tell you when he went back yesterday?"

Xiao Wu asked hurriedly as he entered the door.

"said."

Cai Quanwu certainly knew what Xiao Wu was asking.

"what do you think?"

Xiao Wu just asked Sha Zhu to test the waters yesterday so that Cai Quanwu could be mentally prepared.

Faced with Xiao Wu's question, Cai Quanwu fell silent.

It would be a lie to say that Cai Quanwu was not tempted, but when he thought of the age gap between them, Cai Quanwu was still a little hesitant.

After a moment of silence, Cai Quanwu asked uncertainly:

"Xiao Wu, is this reliable? I'm much older than Xiao Guan."

Hearing Cai Quanwu ask this, Xiao Wu knew that Cai Quanwu was somewhat moved and made a solemn promise.

"Uncle, it must be reliable."

"I wouldn't joke about that."

"Guan Jiaqi is two years older than me. She started school late. She told me that her mother always urged her to get married."

"But for people her age, many families disagree with her appearance."

"She herself is very anxious."

At this point, Xiao Wu lowered his voice and whispered, "Uncle, I suspect Guan Jiaqi has the kind of Oedipus complex you mentioned, and likes men older than her."

Hearing this, Cai Quanwu's face was full of disbelief.

"Is there still this?"

"you sure?"

You can’t blame Tsai for having no doubts. There are very few people who have this mentality.

How could we meet by chance?

"How can I be sure of that?"

Xiao Wu shook his head and then there was another turn.

"However, Guan Jiaqi always told me that she didn't have a brother and her father passed away early. She was often bullied when she was a child, and no one helped her."

"She always said that if she had a brother, or if her father had passed away later, maybe not so many people would dare to bully her."

"Although she didn't show it so obviously, she shouldn't be opposed to someone older."

After hearing Xiao Wu's analysis, Cai Quanwu thought that it made some sense.

"Have you asked her? And will her mother agree?" Cai Quanwu asked.

"That's not the case. I just wanted to ask you if you have any ideas."

"If you don't object, I'll go ask her again."

"There shouldn't be any problem with her mother."

"I heard from her that her mother had found many matchmakers for her marriage, but the people they introduced were unreliable and nothing came of it in the end."

Hearing this, Cai Quanwu admitted that he was moved.

As a single man for two lifetimes, he never expected to have such an opportunity.

It is said that if you do not take what God gives you, you will suffer the consequences. Since God has given Tsai the opportunity, there is no reason for her to retreat.

Whether it succeeds or not, there's no harm in giving it a try.

"Okay then, Xiao Wu, I'll leave this matter to you."
