Siheyuan: Traveling through Cai Quanwu, pretending to be Uncle Shazhu
Chapter 428 Complex Family Relationships
Noon the next day.
After lunch, Cai Quanwu looked at Xiao Wu who was packing her lunch box and said to her:
"Xiaoqing, uncle has something to do tonight, so I won't go home with you after get off work."
"After get off work, you can ride your bike back first."
"Uncle, should I wait for you for dinner tonight?" After hearing Cai Quanwu's words, Xiao Wu stopped what he was doing, looked at Cai Quanwu and asked.
"No, I'll eat first and then go back." Cai Quanwu took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and said with a smile.
"Okay." Xiao Wu agreed, packed up the lunch box, and went out to wash it.
After Xiao Wu left, Cai Quanwu finished his cigarette and prepared to take a nap.
In order to cope with Guan's mother's urging for a baby, Cai Quanwu has been working hard to sow seeds during this period.
The billions of dollars spent every day took a toll on his body.
For dinner tonight, I have to ask the chef to order a few more plates of sea cucumbers.
He needs to replenish his body.
Before traveling through time, I watched videos showing ZQ athletes eating sea cucumbers every day.
I think sea cucumbers are good for the body's recovery after intense exercise.
After all, the athletes' diets are all formulated by professional nutritionists.
Nutritionists must have their reasons for putting sea cucumbers in there.
We must believe in science.
Although his intensity is not as great as those ZQ athletes on the field, their games only last a short time.
Compared with those ZQ athletes, he works diligently every day and never cheats or slacks off. He is simply a model worker.
Just like that, Cai Quanwu closed his eyes as he thought.
After dozing off for a short while, Cai Quanwu was awakened by the bell for work.
After stretching my muscles, I went out and went to the public toilet.
I was slacking off and drank too much tea, and now I feel like peeing.
On the way back from the public toilet, Cai Quanwu decided not to go to the public toilet again when the weather gets warmer. He closed the door and went into the rental house to relieve himself.
When the weather gets warmer, the smell of public toilets is hard to describe.
The smell is only one aspect. The key is the crackling sound under his feet, which gives him goose bumps all over his body.
And he has a bit of trypophobia.
After returning to the cabin, he had not sat down for a while when Brother Li came over and asked him to help carry some food to the front counter.
Afterwards, Brother Li took the key from the director and opened the warehouse. The two of them moved the food while chatting and passing the time.
It’s not too urgent anyway.
When I was slacking off, time passed quickly and before I knew it, it was past four o'clock and there was not much time left before I got off work.
"Finally it's moved. These are enough to sell for a few days."
After moving a bag of corn flour, the two men locked the warehouse, and Brother Li said slightly out of breath.
"It's so hot and it's really uncomfortable to move things."
"After a while, I was sweating all over. Fortunately, I don't move a lot of things a month, otherwise I would have given up."
Cai Quanwu looked at the dust all over his body and complained.
"Come on, you're the only one complaining."
"I haven't seen the people in front of us. Sometimes they are so busy that they don't even have time to drink a sip of water."
Brother Li took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed one to Cai Quanwu, looked at Cai Quanwu with contempt and said.
"I'm working hard too, okay?"
"Every time I go to the countryside, I always put my head on my belt."
"The supply and marketing cooperative not far from our grain store lost two buyers in the first half of the year. No one can be found alive or dead."
"These are the buyers who purchase from designated locations. Buyers like us who roam around alone are more dangerous."
Cai Quanwu took the cigarette handed to him by Brother Li and spoke in an exaggerated manner about the dangers of going to the countryside.
He didn't lie. Two buyers from the nearby supply and marketing cooperative were indeed missing.
Everyone in their grain store had heard about this incident.
However, what Tsai Quanwu said was not entirely true.
Relatively speaking, Cai Quanwu feels that these fixed buyers pose greater risks.
First, the routes are fixed. Second, the round-trip time is easy to estimate. Third, these fixed receivers purchase more things each time, which can arouse the greed of those who are interested.
To sum up, if someone has bad intentions, it would be easier to succeed and gain greater benefits if they prepare in advance and get these designated receivers.
On the other hand, a single buyer has uncertain time and route, so it is not easy for someone with ulterior motives to take action.
It’s just like when robbers are robbing, they will definitely target those big and wealthy stores, such as gold shops, jewelry stores and the like.
What can those street vendors grab?
Of course, nothing is absolute.
There are always unexpected situations.
So in this era, people who have to travel long distances for jobs like being a driver, to places where they are unfamiliar with the place, usually carry guns or are accompanied by armed personnel.
Brother Li knew that someone from the supply and marketing cooperative had gone missing. After hearing Cai Quanwu's somewhat exaggerated words, he nodded in agreement:
"That too."
"I heard that one of the two people who disappeared from the supply and marketing cooperative just had a child."
"Oh, how pitiful."
No one is stupid. When they say someone is missing, they actually know what happened and no one expects the person to come back alive.
"This is all fate, and it has no control over us."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Seeing that Brother Li was fooled, Cai Quanwu did not continue the topic. Instead, he dusted himself off and asked:
"I have to go wash up, do you want to come?"
"Let's go together."
Then, the two of them walked towards the pool together.
After a quick wash, Cai Quanwu and Brother Li stood by the sink and started smoking.
After taking a few puffs of his cigarette, Brother Li suddenly said to Cai Quanwu, "Quanwu, is this oil easy to make?"
"What? Is there a shortage of oil at home?"
"It's okay, the store will send it out in two days, just bear with it and it will pass."
Cai Quanwu thought that Brother Li’s family had run out of oil, so he comforted him.
Hearing Cai Quanwu's meaningless words, Brother Li rolled his eyes and said:
"I know the store is going to have oil."
"But this little bit of oil is only enough for my family to eat."
When Brother Li reached this point, Cai Quanwu interrupted him:
"Isn't it enough for you to have enough food at home? Why do you want to take care of others?"
"So many people are short of oil and food, can you take care of them all?"
Cai had no hidden meaning in his words, but Brother Li could understand.
It means to tell him to mind his own business.
But there are some things that cannot be ignored.
I only heard Brother Li say with some distress:
"Some things are easier said than done."
"It was my brother-in-law who spoke this time."
"What do you want me to do?"
When Cai Quanwu heard Brother Li say that his brother-in-law came to ask for help, he was silent for a while, then asked curiously, "Why, is your sister-in-law's family having trouble making ends meet?"
"That's not it."
"It's just that the relationship on my mother-in-law's side is more complicated."
Brother Li said this and told him about the situation on his wife's side.
After listening to this, Cai Quanwu realized that the relationship was indeed a bit complicated.
To be precise, his mother-in-law was a woman who, after her husband died, got married to a man whose wife had died.
And both of them had children.
After the two of them started living together, they had several more children.
In such a family, the relationships between people are so complicated that one can imagine how complicated they are.
Brother Li’s wife is the daughter of his mother-in-law and her deceased husband, and this brother-in-law is his wife’s biological brother from the same father and mother.
This time, when his brother-in-law came to him for help, Brother Li really couldn't refuse.
It’s funny that Li Ge’s wife’s younger brother’s situation is a bit similar to Jia Dongxu’s.
Cai Quanwu didn't know why Jia Dongxu married Qin Huairu.
The younger brother of Brother Li's wife learned from Brother Li that he married a country girl who didn't want a dowry because he couldn't afford the bride price.
There is no way. It is too unrealistic to expect my stepfather to pay the bride price to marry a wife.
Don’t forget that the stepfather can’t even take care of his own children.
How could I care about such an unrelated child?
