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

Cai Quanwu didn't object to Sha Zhu going to see the deaf old lady.

What would happen if I just went there?

If you find that a few middle-aged women are not taking good care of their children, should you go to the street office to report them?

and then?

Several middle-aged women on the street were disqualified from taking care of the old lady and had to be reassigned to take care of her.

This is just a change of name but not substance, and the end result is still the same.

Who would sincerely serve an unrelated elderly person?

Just like Cai Quanwu said to Sha Zhu just now, instead of going through all this trouble, it would be better to wait until the old lady dies and take care of her funeral affairs properly.

As for letting Sha Zhu take care of it, no one on the street would agree to it unless they had their brains filled with water.

Even if those people on the street are stupid enough to agree to let Sha Zhu take care of him, it still depends on whether Xiao Wu agrees.

After listening to Cai Quanwu's words, Sha Zhu remained silent, sighed again, and walked into the house.

He is not alone now, and there are some things he is willing to do but unable to do them.

Cai Quanwu looked at Sha Zhu's back, knowing that he had only heard the news about the deaf old lady, and felt a little bit reluctant for a moment.

If you really cared about it, how could you only remember it after hearing the news?

After all, it's just a good neighbor.

If there is really a blood relationship, it will definitely be different.

As Cai Quan had expected, after a while, Sha Zhu and Xiao Wu came out of the house, talking and laughing, and went to the kitchen together.

The sadness lasted no more than ten minutes.

If you say that Sha Zhu is heartless and ungrateful, that is definitely not true.

He is just that kind of person, heartless.

While Sha Zhu and the others went to cook, Cai Quanwu lit another cigarette and continued to sit on the stool thinking about things.

Not long after, He Yushui and Xu Meiling ran back together, followed by Xu Fugui's wife.

"Zhu Zi's uncle." Xu Fugui's wife came to the door of Sha Zhu's house and saw Cai Quanwu sitting at the door and greeted her with a smile.

"Mrs. Xu, where are you going?" Cai Quanwu asked casually as he looked at Xu Fugui's wife who was holding a lot of things in her hands.

"Didn't go anywhere."

"Just go to the former owner's house and chat with someone."

Xu Fugui’s wife glanced at what was in her hand and said happily.

Some time ago, she met a servant who also worked in the Lou family in the vegetable market. The servant boasted to her that she had met Mrs. Lou by chance, went home with Mrs. Lou, chatted with her, and when she left, Mrs. Lou gave her a lot of good things.

After hearing this, Xu Fugui's wife started to worry about it.

She thought that she had a better relationship with Mrs. Lou, and if she went to visit her, Mrs. Lou would give her something.

I've been thinking about it for many days and today I couldn't help but go over to try my luck.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lou was very enthusiastic towards Xu Fugui's wife who came to visit.

Not only did he invite her to his home for a meal, but he also gave her a lot of good things before she left.

Xu Fugui's wife was so happy that she said a lot of nice things to him.

"oh oh."

"Is it the former owner of the steel mill, the Lou family known as the Lou half of the city?"

As soon as Cai Quanwu heard it, he knew where Xu Fugui's wife had gone.

Looking at the things in Xu Fugui's wife's hands, Cai Quanwu thought that Xu Fugui's wife must have a good relationship with the Lou family, otherwise she would not have given so many things.

The Lou family has many servants like this, and it is impossible for the Lou family to give gifts to everyone who comes to visit.

"Uncle Zhuzi, how did you know?" Xu Fugui's wife was very curious about how Cai Quanwu knew this.

You have to know that their family kept this matter a secret and not many people in the hospital knew about it.

"I heard it from someone." Cai Quanwu said casually.

He can't say that I saw it from watching TV series.

"oh oh."

Hearing Cai Quanwu say this, Xu Fugui’s wife said “oh” twice and said nothing more.

She did not doubt Cai Quanwu's statement that he heard it from someone else.

There are still a few people in the hospital who know about this, so it is not surprising that Cai did not reveal anything.

"Mom, I got my schoolbag." As soon as the two finished talking, Xu Meiling came out of the house with her schoolbag.

"Uncle Zhuzi, let's go home first. Meiling is sorry to bother you today."

When Xu Fugui’s wife saw Xu Meiling coming out, she immediately thought about going home.

She and Cai Quanwu really had nothing to talk about.

"Mrs. Xu, what you said is too polite." Cai Quanwu said with a smile when he saw Xu Fugui's wife being so polite.

"Haha, this kid is timid."

Xu Fugui's wife smiled, said something, and took Xu Meiling to the backyard.

Looking at the back of Xu Fugui's wife, Cai Quan was thinking about Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e without a second thought.

I really don’t know what Lou Bancheng was thinking. He actually agreed to marry his daughter to Xu Damao.

If it's because of background issues, then why not find a martyr's orphan for your daughter?

There are many orphans of martyrs in this era, and Cai Quanwu doesn't believe that no one is willing to marry Lou Xiao'e.

Moreover, the identity of a martyr's orphan is no better than that of the Xu family.

Don’t say it’s Lou Tan’s fault.

Even if it was arranged by Lou Tan, such a big thing would definitely require Lou Bancheng's final approval.

When ordinary families marry off their daughters, in addition to listening to the matchmaker's introduction, they will also make some inquiries privately.

How could Lou Bancheng not know this truth?

It seemed that he did not ask anyone about Xu Damao's character and let Lou Xiao'e marry him.

If you ask a little, you will find out that Xu Damao's character, which was extremely badly criticized by Yi Zhonghai, cannot be concealed.

Cai Quanwu thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out what was going on.

……

At Sha Zhu's house, everyone was eating around the table.

After eating for a while, Sha Zhu thought about the rice that Cai Quanwu brought back and made a suggestion:

"Uncle, you brought back so much rice to make rice dumplings, so you need a lot of reed leaves. Let's go pick some together on our day off, otherwise I don't know how long it will take me to get them all by myself."

Cai Quanwu was eating when he heard Sha Zhu's question. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Is it difficult to get reed leaves?"

He has never dealt with these things before, so he really doesn't know the specific situation.

"Sure."

"Not all reed leaves can be used."

"You need to pick the larger leaves on the reeds. There are only a few on a reed."

Sha Zhu and Cai Quanwu began to explain.

"Okay, then we'll go together, the sooner we go the sooner we'll be back."

"You guys also said you were going to eat roast duck and couldn't come back too late."

After hearing Sha Zhu's explanation, Cai Quanwu agreed.

Originally, Cai Quanwu wanted to ask if he could buy it and just buy some.

After thinking about it, I decided not to ask.

This era is not like later times, when people just wanted to buy everything directly.

Those who can do it themselves usually do it themselves.

When He Yushui heard that everyone was going to pick reed leaves together, he became excited and said excitedly:

"I haven't picked any reed leaves yet."

"When the time comes, I will use the reed leaves I picked to make rice dumplings and eat them myself."

Shazhu, Xiao Wu and Guan Jiaqi looked at the excited He Yushui, smiled and said nothing.

Children are particularly interested in things they have never done before.

They were the same when they were kids.

Cai Quanwu glanced at He Yushui and poured cold water on her:

"Just you? Don't go and say it's not fun."

When He Yushui heard this, he knew what Cai Quanwu meant, and hurriedly said, "Uncle, you promised not to tell."
