Third uncle’s request was not excessive. In fact, Lin Donglai had this plan without him telling him.

Shazhu is not a bad person, he just has a stubborn personality.

His father He Daqing ran away with a widow early, and he was forced to grow up when he was only in his teens.

In order to stay in this courtyard and take good care of his sister, he must give others the impression that he has a bad temper and is not someone who is easy to mess with.

Over time, his personality has changed, and he can't help but take action against people who are at odds with him.

"Uncle San, I can promise you this. You don't have to worry too much. Brother Zhuzi will only take action against those who deserve to be punished."

"If he dares to attack Sister Lingzi, I will be the first one to not let him go. Besides, he can't bear it, right, Sister Lingzi?"

Lingzi was called out by Lin Donglai again, and she pretended to be angry and scolded: "Donlai, you are annoying! You are making fun of me again."

Seeing Lin Donglai grinning, not talking back but smiling smugly, he snorted, “Donlai, just laugh.”

"I hope you can marry a fierce wife in the future so that she can cure your bad mouth."

Lin Donglai smiled: "Sister Lingzi, don't bother with that. Besides, I don't have any plans to find a partner yet."

When the third uncle heard this, he joined the discussion: "Dongla, if you find a suitable girl, you can date her first, and then get married when you are old enough."

After hearing this, the third aunt agreed with what her husband said and said to Lin Dong: "Dongla, how about I help you keep an eye on the nearby villages?"

"How about this, I'll bring a girl who's the right age and has a good personality and looks to you, okay?"

This was not a topic that Lin Donglai liked to discuss. Seeing that he had become the center of the topic, he was so scared that he ran away:

"Uncle, aunt, let's not talk about this right now. I haven't thought about dating yet. I'll ask you for help when I need it in the future."

"Well, let me see how Brother Zhuzi is doing with his cooking. I'll go help serve the dishes. You guys take a seat first..."

After saying that, Lin Donglai glanced at his cousin who was covering her mouth and laughing, then quickened his pace and walked out of the house and headed straight into the kitchen.

Sha Zhu was making the first dish, braised pork, which was already stewing in the pot. At this time, the kitchen could be said to be like a sauna.

It was stuffy and hot. Lin Donglai just walked in and stood for a while and he was sweating profusely. He found it unbearable.

Looking closely, one can see that Sha Zhu's clothes are already soaked with sweat, and he is wiping the sweat from his head and face with a towel from time to time.

Maybe it was because people were in high spirits when something good happened, so even in such an uncomfortable environment, Sha Zhu had a happy smile on his face.

I hum a few lines from time to time, and it really feels like I'm trying to find joy in suffering.

Seeing Lin Donglai walk into the kitchen, she thought he was here to serve the dishes, so she quickly said, "Dongla, I'm making braised pork, so I can't serve the dishes so soon. You have to wait a while."

"It's hot in the kitchen. Go chat with your uncle first. I'll call you after the food is done. Okay?"

It’s not that Lin Donglai is unwilling to chat with his third uncle and the others, but he doesn’t dare to do so. He can’t bear being introduced to potential partners at any time.

It was obvious that Sha Zhu couldn't stay in the kitchen, so Lin Donglai told Sha Zhu to call him if he needed anything, and he would go home and rest first.

He was afraid that his third uncle and his wife would see him and ask him to talk to them about his relationship. If he listened, he would feel uncomfortable, but if he didn't listen, it would seem he was disrespectful to the elderly.

After leaving the yard, he simply quickened his pace and walked towards the front yard. Unexpectedly, he almost bumped into Yi Zhonghai and his wife as soon as he reached the front yard.

"It's Donglai. He looked so flustered. I thought it was Zhuzi or Xu Damao. What happened?"

"Are they fighting again?" Yi Zhonghai looked towards the central courtyard and asked in confusion.

"Uncle, you're overthinking it. No one was fighting. I was in a hurry to go home because of something."

"By the way, Zhuzi's girlfriend and her parents are here today. They are at his house. If you don't have anything to do, don't go looking for him."

After Lin Dong finished speaking, he walked back home without looking back and locked the door: I can finally rest assured.

He thought that after Sha Zhu prepared the food, he and his sister would go over to eat together, and then the focus would most likely shift to Sha Zhu.

On the other hand, Yi Zhonghai felt a pang in his heart when he heard that Sha Zhu had a girlfriend and even brought his girlfriend's parents to the hospital.

The progress is too fast. I don't know what kind of girl this guy found. It's only been a short time and Sha Zhu has deviated from the track I arranged for him.

Yi Zhonghai originally thought that he would just let Sha Zhu struggle as much as he could, and if he couldn't find a suitable partner, he would stop being picky.

When the time comes, I will keep an eye out for any docile girls out there. Appearance is not important. I will just introduce one to him to start a family.

This will be beneficial to the old couple in the future, and Sha Zhu won't forget about their differences after he gets married.

After Yi Zhonghai quickened his pace and walked back to the central courtyard, he immediately walked into Sha Zhu's house. At this time, Lingzi and her family of three were chatting.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai come in, Lingzi stood up and asked, "Uncle, are you looking for Zhuzi? He is cooking in the kitchen." Yi Zhonghai didn't answer, turned around and walked straight towards the kitchen.

Lingzi pouted and whispered to her father, "I don't know who this old man is. He doesn't even answer questions. How rude."

Lingzi's father patted her hands and said, "You and your mother sit down first. I'll go take a look."

Just when Lingzi's father walked to the kitchen door, Yi Zhonghai was inside persuading Sha Zhu: "Zhuzi, she is just a country girl, she will do you no good at all."

"Country people don't have rationed food. If you marry her, you will not only have to support her but also have to support her family. It's not worth it."

Sha Zhu wiped his sweat and replied, "Uncle, don't worry about it. I've chosen Lingzi. I'm happy even if it means eating candy or vegetables."

"Besides, I can't spend all my monthly salary, so why not support her? Come on, go home and don't disturb me while I'm cooking."

Lingzi's father listened to Shazhu's words at the door, smiled with satisfaction, and turned around and walked back into the house while no one noticed him.

Not long after he walked out, Yi Zhonghai walked out of the kitchen with a depressed look on his face. When he passed the door, he glanced at the people in the room with a gloomy look.

Lingzi's father knew that this man had bad intentions, so he naturally refused to be outdone and stared at him. Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai walked back to his home in a depressed mood.

After Yi Zhonghai left, Lingzi's father said to Lingzi, "Lingzi, when you marry into this courtyard, you must be careful of that old man just now. He is not a good person."

Lingzi was very puzzled: "Dad, did you know him before?"

"Don't worry about it. Dad has experience in judging people. You can't go wrong if you listen to Dad. You must remember it."

After saying that, he exchanged a look with Lingzi's mother, who suddenly realized, "Old man, what did you hear when you went out just now?"

"Anyway, it's not a good thing. Let's not talk about it. There's no need for us to worry about an outsider." Lingzi's father did not continue the discussion.

Just then, Sha Zhu finished cooking the dish and walked out of the kitchen wiping his sweat.
