Siheyuan: Silly Pillar is Kind

The old man is in a state of distress but can't express it in words. Does Jia Dongxu's words sound like he wants him to make the decision?

"What ideas do you dare to make?"

"If I dare to say anything about Jia Dongxu's matter and ignore it, the good reputation I have accumulated over the years will be gone!"

Turning his head and looking at the arrogant boys from 111 and 121, Yi Zhonghai felt a toothache.

, didn't you see those guys looking at you eagerly?

I can't do anything to break someone up in front of them.

But do I dare to say that I want to kick this father and daughter out?

"Zhu Zi, and this brother, please go inside and talk first. It's not decent to have so many people watching.

As he said this, he went into the house first. Sha Zhu quickly invited everyone in. Although Sha Zhu's family was penniless, the countryside was even poorer. When everyone entered the house, Sha Zhu quickly poured water and handed out cigarettes. He was so enthusiastic and kept saying, "Xiao Qin, drink slowly. Don't burn yourself. This is freshly boiled water."

The old man looked at Sha Zhu's useless appearance. He originally thought that Sha Zhu was on the same side as him, but now he has run to this girl.

The old man looked at the quiet girl, his mind spinning, and suddenly he had an idea.

"Brother, since you are here today, I can't let you go back. I don't know what's wrong with Zhuzi. He wants to withdraw from such a good girl. Today I will make the decision for you and let Zhuzi give you an explanation. Zhuzi, don't forget what I told you last night. You can't bully others."

Sha Zhu knew clearly that the uncle wanted him to cancel the engagement, and he added fuel to the fire. Now that things have come to this, if it doesn't work out, do you really think I, Sha Zhu, am a fool? You can suppress me, so why can't I find someone to suppress you?

"I'll call the other gentlemen in the yard first."

After saying that, he ran to call for help.

The old man was a little fanciful and thought that he could cancel the marriage if he had more people on his side.

As soon as Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui entered the room, Sha Zhu told them the whole story and emphasized that Uncle Xiaoqin was the director of the Nanluoguxiang Police Station, that is, Director Yin, and Director Yin's wife was the sub-district director Liu Mei.

Yan Fugui said immediately, "Zhu Zi, what you did is not right. How can you cancel an engagement after getting engaged? This will ruin the woman's reputation. Apologize to her quickly. Do it today. Get the certificate tomorrow. We have just received the banner of Civilized Siheyuan. You can't ruin the reputation of our Siheyuan."

Liu Haizhong went on to say, "You were there yesterday when Director Liu praised our courtyard. How dare you bring shame to our courtyard? I will kick you out of the courtyard."

"Uncle, look..."

"It's useless for you to look at anyone today. Your Third Uncle is right. Anyone who obstructs this matter is an enemy of Siheyuan and an enemy of my Second Uncle."

"Brother, how about we pay compensation for this matter?" Yi Zhonghai said.

"He's an uncle, but he wouldn't do things the way you do. Shazhu is now of marriageable age, and I think this girl is pretty, so what's wrong with letting them be together?" Yan Fugui usually just encouraged others and didn't dare to talk to Yi Zhonghai like this. But now, if Director Liu got to know about this, he would remove the Wenming Siheyuan. All the things he distributed haven't even warmed up yet. If it's gone next year, Yan Fugui feels that he won't be able to eat for three days.

Liu Haizhong also quickly said, "Old Yi, you can't be confused about this matter. Now the person has been sent here. If this girl goes back, her reputation will be ruined. If anything goes wrong, can you take the responsibility?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at everyone coming towards him, stood up and said, Zhuzi, you make the decision yourself.

Sha Zhu said quickly, "Uncle, you can't leave. I am an orphan and a widow, and you are my uncle. You gave me three hundred yuan yesterday. I can't make a decision on this matter. You are angry after making a decision. You make a decision here, and I will listen to you."

Yi Zhonghai was a little confused. The three hundred yuan was clearly for you to break off the engagement, so why is the statement different now?

Yi Zhonghai said helplessly, "This is a match made in heaven, Zhuzi, you picked a good wife." But he changed his mind and thought that he should at least give Xiaoqin a good impression, otherwise he would be at a loss.

"Today is your big day, Xiaoqin. You two can ask your aunt to make some reunion dumplings for you. We old brothers can have a drink and have some fun together. It's a great time."

Wang's father really wanted to drink it, but the horse was an important resource of the team, and he was sending his daughter off to marry, so he persuaded him for a long time before agreeing to let him use it. He would skin him alive tomorrow when he returned.

"Forget it, brother, we have to hurry back for next time."

"Xiaoqin, you are getting married today. Please take good care of your family in the future."

"Okay, Dad," Xiaoqin said with tears in her eyes.

"I'm leaving, no need to see me off."

After everyone left, Xiaoqin immediately started to clean up the house. Shazhu said, "Don't work for now. Things have been completed. Now that the mistress has returned, you should know about our family's financial situation. Go and buy anything we need. And please take care of Yushui at home. Let's go to the uncle's house for dinner tonight. I won't cook anymore. I will let you taste my cooking skills later."

"Brother Zhuzi, I'll listen to you."

Looking at the well-behaved and obedient Xiaoqin, Sha Zhu was extremely satisfied. Isn't this better than marrying a girl from the city? Nowadays, girls in the city can cook and knit sweaters, but they have a little temper. Sha Zhu hums with satisfaction.

After staying for a while, I went to find the old man. I still had to talk to him and not to ruin my health.

"Uncle, I'm drinking tea. Give me some."

Sha Zhu didn't hesitate to start working on it. Only after Sha Zhu finished did Yi Zhonghai speak.

"Zhu Zi, why are you coming to see me, an old man, instead of being intimate with your new wife?"

"Look at what your uncle said. You are my uncle. Who can be closer than us? Others don't know what's wrong with this daughter-in-law, but you, my uncle, don't know either."

Yi Zhonghai threw the teacup in his hand and said, "I really don't know what's going on. Didn't you protect Zhuzi just now? Why are you saying you should listen to me now?"

"Uncle, you are wrongly accusing me. Don't you know that I can't walk when I see a beautiful girl? Wasn't I not paying attention just now? And, uncle, you didn't let her leave just now, and now you blame me."

"I just said one thing and asked you to say one thing back. And Zhuzi, you don't have to return the betrothal gift now, and you have to return the three hundred yuan to me."

"Uncle, yesterday in front of Director Liu you said that this was to support me and Yu Shui, an orphan and a widow. Just now you said the same thing in front of my cheap father-in-law. How come you want it back in the blink of an eye?"

"Zhu Zi, this three hundred yuan was the compensation we agreed upon for letting you break off the engagement. Now that you have the person back, you are going to refuse to pay the money."

"Uncle, when have I, Shazhu, ever defaulted on a debt? Do I need money?"

"Then give me back the three hundred."

"Okay, uncle, I'll return the money tomorrow. Today is your wedding day anyway, and it's unlucky to take money from outside the home. I'll return it to you early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, Zhuzi, I knew you are not that kind of person."

"I'm not the kind of person you think I am, but uncle, I've returned the money to you. Now I have to clarify something. After all, Director Liu praised you for this matter before. I can't let you, the uncle, who didn't do this, take the blame for me. I'll go tell the second and third uncles now, so that the news won't spread far and wide. If someone asks me about it later, I won't have to answer them one by one."

Sha Zhu stood up and walked out. Yi Zhonghai came to his senses and hurriedly grabbed Sha Zhu.

"Zhu Zi, I really remembered it wrong. I did say before that I would help you, but I never said I would pay you back."

Sha Zhu asked, "Does the grant not need to be repaid?"

“No need”, no matter who asks, it’s no need.

"What a coincidence, sir. I don't have the money if you want it. I lent it to someone before. But I think it's really my intention that you don't want the money."

"Yes, no matter who asks, okay Zhuzi, go call the old lady and your wife over, and we'll make dumplings together later."

"Okay, I'll go and summon him."

Yi Zhonghai sat there with a changing expression. After a while, he began to laugh again. Yi Zhonghai figured it out. This was actually a good thing. The girl looked like someone who would listen to her husband, just like his own wife. As long as Sha Zhu was always respectful and stayed in his position as the second-in-command for the elderly, everything else would be trivial matters.

Sha Zhu turned around and went to the old lady again, said a few auspicious words to her, and then carried the old lady to Yi Zhonghai's house. At this time, an aunt came back from buying vegetables, and Sha Zhu hurriedly called his wife to help with cooking.

Jia Zhang looked at the lively Yi Zhonghai's house with a gloomy look. After a while, she said to Jia Dongxu, "Dongxu, Auntie just bought a lot of food. Let's not cook tonight and go to Yi Zhonghai's house to eat. Your master calls Sha Zhu and his cheap wife instead of his apprentice and his mother. Is that how he does things?"

Jia Dongxu thought, even if he is the master, when a master invites guests, he has to invite his apprentice and his mother as well. I have never heard of such a thing. If the master doesn't allow me to sit at the table, I have to stand straight.

"Mom, my master is treating us, it's not appropriate for us to go there"

"What do you mean inappropriate? You are Yi Zhonghai's apprentice. Do you know what a apprentice means? An apprentice is half a son. What's wrong with his son sitting at the table to eat? Besides, we live in the same courtyard. Doesn't Yi Zhonghai always emphasize respecting the old and loving the young? We have the old and the young together in our family. Isn't he ashamed not to greet us? I just heard that Yi Zhonghai gave three hundred yuan to Sha Zhu. That's three hundred yuan. Why did he give it to that stupid guy Sha Zhu? You, as his apprentice, don't even have it. No, you have to let Yi Zhonghai give us three hundred yuan as well. You also want to get married, and Yi Zhonghai can't be partial to us."

Jia Dongxu had a soft personality to begin with, and after listening to what Jia Zhang said, he felt that what Jia Zhang said made sense, so he stopped talking.

Jia Zhang sat there and continued to babble, thinking about how to ask for more. Sha Zhu gave three hundred, so Jia Dongxu is your own disciple, so he should give three thousand, right?

Jia Dongxu was also a little indignant. He had heard people in the hospital say before that Sha Zhu was taken to work by an old man on his first day, so he could skip the internship and directly get the ninth-level salary. As his apprentice, he had to be an apprentice for three years. It seemed that Yi Zhonghai was a little biased towards Sha Zhu.

He didn't even think about how high Sha Zhu's skills had to be to be evaluated. He is still learning the names of the parts from Yi Zhonghai.
