Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan
Chapter 84: The Dilemma of Shazhu
Zhou Jin suddenly felt helpless and had to pick up his clothes and take Zhou Xin back to the courtyard.
When Zhou Jin returned to the courtyard, he did not see Yan Bugui at the gate. It was probably because the get out of class had not yet ended, but the third aunt took over and guarded the gate like Yan Bugui.
However, seeing that Zhou Jin didn't bring anything, he just said hello and went back to his job of guarding the door.
Zhou Jin returned home and put the bicycle into the house. He saw that the little girl was already sleepy. He guessed that she must have played a lot in the morning.
I have to have a good talk with the old man later. He can’t always spoil the child like this.
Suddenly, Zhou Jin thought of a problem. Xinxin was almost seven years old and it was time for her to go to school. There was less than a month left before the second half of the year for new students to start.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jin slapped his forehead hard. He had been busy with the black market and the steel mill for some time and actually forgot such an important matter.
Fortunately, I remembered it today, otherwise Xinxin might have been delayed for another year. It seems that I have to find a time to ask Li Huaide to make an appointment with the principal of Red Star Primary School.
But now is not the time to talk about this. Zhou Jin hurriedly picked up Zhou Xin, put her on her small bed, then gently closed the door and tiptoed to the study.
At this time, Zhou Jin needed to arrange the robot's affairs. When he came to the study, Zhou Jin locked the door directly and then communicated directly with Long Yi and the others.
Zhou Jin told the five people his plans and requirements, and opened up their access to the space, so that they could now freely dispose of the supplies, money, tickets, and hot weapons in the space.
Then, five robots were placed in an abandoned yard nearby. After they were materialized, they were all male. This was also a special arrangement by Zhou Jin. He didn't need female robots for the time being, so males could avoid most of the unnecessary troubles.
The five men were all about 1.80 meters tall and looked quite strong. They all had legitimate identities, so Zhou Jin didn't need to worry about anything. Now he just had to wait for them to settle the issues with the house and warehouse.
After dealing with Long Yi and the others, Zhou Jin also felt tired. Although it was only a short morning, a lot of big things had happened.
First of all, Zhou Jin signed in directly for a big gift package in his monthly sign-in, and obtained five Sirius high-level robots including Long Yi, and then began to systematically understand their capabilities and how to use them.
Then we went to the steel mill, held a two-hour meeting, and reached a cooperation on the supply of materials with the steel mill. In the future, we can convert the materials in the space into cash through this channel.
Finally, he went to his grandfather's house to cook. When he returned to his own home, he assigned tasks to Long Yi and the others and began to implement the black market plan.
Seeing the plans he made years ago being realized one by one, Zhou Jin had an indescribable sense of accomplishment and felt that he was getting closer and closer to his goal.
Zhou Jin got up and walked towards the bedroom. When he passed Zhou Xin's bedroom, he stopped, put his ear to the door and listened. Knowing that Zhou Xin was still sleeping, he went back to his own bedroom and started taking a nap.
While Zhou Jin was sleeping soundly, Sha Zhu was lying on his recliner in the back kitchen of the steel mill canteen. It was already past lunch time and everyone else was cleaning up the kitchen.
But Sha Zhu doesn't have to do all these. He is the chef in the cafeteria. He cooks the dishes, then selectively serves dishes to everyone, shakes the wok from time to time, and then he can take a break.
In the past, if someone worked overtime, he would need to cook dinner. However, now there is a food shortage and the workers cannot eat enough. Director Yang is worried that something bad will happen if everyone works overtime on an empty stomach, so he canceled overtime.
This is why the factory’s production task was only half completed by August.
Now Sha Zhu is waiting for everyone to clean up the kitchen, and then see if there is any special cooking today. If not, he can go home from get off work.
Sha Zhu is now truly the one who feeds the whole family. Although he has a younger sister, Zhou Jin is responsible for everything from tuition to meals. Although he hates Zhou Jin, he is happy to see it happen. Why not have someone help raise his sister?
After all, his mind is now entirely on Qin Huairu. By throwing the burden of He Yushui to Zhou Jin, he can devote himself to helping his sister Qin.
Sha Zhu, who was lying on the recliner, was recalling the feeling of Qin Huairu holding his hand last night, which touched his soul.
As he was thinking, Sha Zhu put the hand that Qin Huairu had touched last night under his nose and sniffed it, but unfortunately, the hand had lost its smell after cooking for the whole morning.
As for why Qin Huairu wanted to find Sha Zhu, it all started last night after Sha Zhu got off work.
Because of food problems after the New Year, Sha Zhu never brought back a lunch box again. Also, since he no longer had a small stove, he didn't have to cook dinner, so Sha Zhu came back earlier recently.
Just yesterday afternoon, as soon as Sha Zhu returned to the courtyard, Qin Huairu put down the clothes in her hands, came up to him, and whispered to Sha Zhu.
"Zhu Zi, you have to help me. My family is almost broke right now. Can you help get some food?"
Qin Huairu was worried that Sha Zhu would reject her, so before Sha Zhu could say anything, she directly held Sha Zhu's hand and rubbed her plump breasts on Sha Zhu's arm.
This made Shazhu so excited that his head was buzzing. He couldn't remember what Qin Huairu said at all. He just focused on experiencing the beauty and nodded in agreement.
Qin Huairu saw that she had completed the task, so she found an excuse to go home. Sha Zhu walked home in a daze, and only realized what had happened after he entered the house.
He had already promised Qin Huairu that he would help her get food, but the key was where to get the food now. He was just a cook and didn't know anything about purchasing.
Moreover, after He Daqing abandoned him and He Yushui and ran away with the White Widow, he, at the instigation of Yi Zhonghai, broke off relations with his master and had no contact with him for many years.
This is equivalent to shutting out his greatest background. You have to know that his master is the top Sichuan cuisine master in the city, and his network of contacts is unmatched by ordinary people.
But after being fooled by Yi Zhonghai, Sha Zhu felt that his master was not a good person and did not hold a farewell banquet for his master. He just left Emei Restaurant and followed Yi Zhonghai to the steel rolling mill.
And Sha Zhu did a lot of things to offend people in the steel mill because of his foul mouth and petty character. No one liked him except Director Yang, Yi Zhonghai and Ma Hua.
Director Yang admires Sha Zhu's cooking skills, and because of the relationship with the deaf old lady, and he doesn't know much about Sha Zhu's private situation, that's why he likes Sha Zhu. Otherwise, he would never have taken him to cook for the big boss later.
The factory leaders needed his cooking skills to cook business and satisfy their own appetites, so they turned a blind eye to the stupid things Sha Zhu did.
The workers below all knew that Sha Zhu was highly valued by Director Yang, so they did not dare to provoke him easily. Moreover, Sha Zhu was narrow-minded and vengeful. If he did not get along with someone, he would throw the spoon at that person and make them go hungry.
So everyone dared to be angry with him but not to speak out, just like Xu Damao. As long as Sha Zhu served him meals, Xu Damao had never had a full meal.
But Xu Damao is a projectionist. When he stays in the factory, it means he has nothing to do, so it’s not a big problem even if he doesn’t have enough to eat. But these workers are different. If they don’t have enough to eat, it will affect their work in the afternoon.
Therefore, Sha Zhu has basically become hated by everyone in the steel mill. No one will help him unless they give him benefits. So now Sha Zhu can only lie on a recliner and think about how he can get food.
He didn't dare to get it from the factory now. Ever since the food ration was reduced, every meal in the canteen was strictly controlled and no leftovers were allowed. As a result, he hadn't brought a lunch box back home for several months.
As a result, the Jia family's attitude towards Sha Zhu became cold. After all, in the eyes of the Jia family, Sha Zhu was a blood-sucking bag, and if he couldn't suck blood, they would not treat him well.
Only Qin Huairu was smart enough to know that Shazhu was the best blood-sucking baby in their family. Even if he couldn't suck blood for the time being, she could still raise him slowly.
Therefore, Qin Huairu would greet Sha Zhu every time she saw him and chat with him from time to time. In short, she wanted to hold on to Sha Zhu tightly.
This time, Jia Dongxu had a sudden idea. He thought that Sha Zhu had not brought a lunch box home for a long time, and he should have saved a lot of money and tickets over such a long time, so he asked Qin Huairu to ask for it.
However, Jia Dongxu didn't know that Sha Zhu used to save some of his salary, after all, he had to support He Yushui's studies. Ever since Zhou Jin took charge of He Yushui's tuition, Sha Zhu's money had long been borrowed by Qin Huairu for various reasons.
However, Qin Huairu did all this without telling Jia Dongxu. She knew that she had no status in the Jia family, which made her feel insecure, so she madly sucked blood from Sha Zhu to enrich her own small treasury.
In fact, when he went to find Sha Zhu this time, he knew that Sha Zhu could not provide food. After all, he was now also responsible for supporting the Zhao family in the backyard, which was also a considerable expense.
Because of this, Qin Huairu made another note of Zhou Jin in her little notebook. In her opinion, Sha Zhu's things were hers. Now that Zhou Jin asked Sha Zhu to use her things to help other people, how could she be happy?
Let's turn our attention to Sha Zhu. He has been lying on the recliner for more than two hours. The others in the kitchen have already cleaned up the kitchen and are preparing to pack up and go home.
Only Sha Zhu didn't move at all. Ma Hua walked up to him with some concern.
"Master, we have cleaned up the kitchen and are ready to go home. Do you want to come with us?"
Sha Zhu didn't even open his eyes, he just spoke unhappily.
"When you're done packing, leave first. I have something else to do. Don't bother me."
Ma Hua also knew his master's temper, so he said no more, picked up his lunch box and went home with the others.
Seeing that everyone had left, Sha Zhu also sat up and looked at the empty kitchen. No one knew what he was thinking. Then he started to fumble around in the kitchen, probably looking for any uncooked food.
The result disappointed him. There was not a single grain of rice in the entire kitchen except for pots, pans, and bowls. Although he knew this would be the result, he still hoped for a miracle. Unfortunately, miracles can only be miracles.
Sha Zhu, who didn't find any food, lay listlessly on the recliner, wondering what else he could do.
During this period, Sha Zhu also wanted to go to the black market to buy food, but he did not have enough money. After all, apart from his own food and drink and the money and food he gave to the Zhao family in the backyard, the remaining money was borrowed by Qin Huairu under various excuses.
Can you believe it? Sha Zhu only had a salary of more than 20 yuan, and his savings over the years were less than 100 yuan. And this was the money he hid in his shoes, and Qin Huairu didn't know about it.
So now Sha Zhu is very conflicted about whether he should take out his savings to please Sister Qin, or keep it for himself in an emergency.
After all, this is really his coffin money. But if he doesn't take it out, what will happen to Sister Qin? Sister Qin was a little unhappy with him because he failed to bring back the lunch box.
Now that he has finally found help, if he fails to do it, he will probably lose Sister Qin. Thinking of Qin Huairu's delicate face, plump and charming figure, and the temperament of a young woman, Sha Zhu decided to go to the black market to buy food.
Just like what people often say when they see a beautiful woman, if I could find a girlfriend like this, I would take my ribs off and make soup for her.
Sha Zhu perfectly interpreted this sentence, except that he was making soup for someone else's wife.
After making the decision, Sha Zhu did not stay long. He quickly locked the canteen and went home while it was still early. He wanted to rest early, otherwise he might not be able to get up in the early morning.
The closer they got to the courtyard, the more worried Sha Zhu became. He was afraid that he would run into Qin Huairu and ask him for food. After all, he hadn't gotten it yet.
Fortunately, Qin Huairu was not wandering around in the yard at this time. Sha Zhu successfully crossed the middle courtyard, hurried home, closed the door, and went straight to bed.
