"I slept on the sofa yesterday. It's okay, brother-in-law," Shen Zhu said, "Also, my sister has already found a house. I'll help you move tomorrow."
Lu Zhishu looked at Chen Pan in surprise: "When did you find a house to rent? Why didn't you tell me?"
Chen Pan: "It's not somewhere else, it's the apartment Zhou Mo rented before."
Lu Zhishu: "Is everything settled?"
Chen Pan: "Well, Zhou Mo is the agent, and the landlord has already agreed. I plan to move in within three days. Just in time for you to come back, I want to give you a surprise. I didn't expect..."
Lu Zhishu rubbed the hair on Chen Pan's head. "I'm very surprised. I've wanted to move to another place for a long time. This place is too small and inconvenient. I've been busy with Zhifan's affairs and have no time to deal with these. Zhuzhu, thank you for helping me take care of everything at home. You've worked hard."
Chen Pan smiled, then shook his head, "It's not hard, not hard at all. We are husband and wife, why are you still fussing about these things? You don't have time to do it, so it's normal for me to do it instead. Besides, it's just renting a house."
Lu Zhishu: "Renting an apartment is no simple matter. Fortunately, Zhou Mo has saved me a lot of unnecessary trouble. Otherwise... if you want to rent a satisfactory apartment on your own, you need to look at apartments every day, running all over the country, which is very tiring. This job is hard work, so I don't want you to work so hard. I thought that after I finish this work, I will ask someone to find one."
Chen Pan: "Who should we ask for help? Isn't it Guanglin? We've troubled him so many times, and you still have the nerve to ask him this again?"
Lu Zhishu smiled embarrassedly, "Yes, my wife taught me that."
“Hiss——” Shen Zhu felt a toothache when he heard it, “Sister, brother-in-law, that’s enough for you two, I’m still here.”
"Little brat," Lu Zhishu glanced at him gently, "What are you talking about? Why did you suddenly come to Dongjiang without even telling me in advance so I could arrange a place for you to stay?"
"My mom meant it. I didn't want to come either, but she forced me to come," Shen Zhu said with a dejected look on his face.
"Okay, come on, you can stay for two more days. I happen to have some free time, and your sister has also taken a leave, so let's go out and relax."
"My mother asked me to come to Dongjiang to make up for my studies, not to play." Shen Zhu muttered softly.
Lu Zhishu looked at Chen Pan, as if seeking an answer.
Shen Pan nodded, "That's what my mother meant. I've asked Zhou Mo to help him make up for it."
Lu Zhishu said helplessly: "Alright. Let's take advantage of these few days of free time to move home first. At least we have to give our brother a comfortable place to live."
Chen Pan: "Well, I've found a house, and you can find a moving company."
Lu Zhishu: "Of course, isn't this what a husband should do?"
The two looked at each other and smiled, full of the most genuine sweetness after the disaster.
"Oh right," Chen Pan suddenly thought of something, "this brat said he had something for you when he came to Dongjiang this time. I asked what it was, but he refused to tell me."
"Oh?" Lu Zhishu looked at Shen Zhu, "What do you want to give me?"
Shen Zhu's mouth drooped, "Things between men, wait until tomorrow, I want to talk to you alone."
Lu Zhishu pursed his lips and chuckled, "Why, are you dating someone?"
"No," Shen Zhu was angry, "It's all men's business. I don't want my sister to know."
Lu Zhishu did not ask any further questions. He was quite understanding of boys of Shen Zhu's age.
After all, he was also Shen Zhu's age.
It's understandable that Shen Zhu has grown up and has his own little thoughts.
Since he wanted to maintain the mystery, Lu Zhishu didn't want to destroy it.
Just do it.
The three of them worked together and moved house.
I have to say, having one more person makes a real difference.
Before, when Chen Pan and Lu Zhishu moved, Lu Zhishu found a place and basically disappeared to work, and the rest of the sorting work was done by Chen Pan alone.
It's really tiring and I have so many complaints.
Now with Shen’s help, it is true that strength lies in numbers, and the efficiency of cleaning, organizing and moving has increased a lot.
The three of them worked together, talking and laughing, and were in a good mood.
Shen Zhu was also happy with his work.
Coming to Chen Pan's place, at least I didn't eat and live for nothing, at least I was able to help out a little.
Although his sister Shen Pan didn't care about these things, Shen Zhu himself did.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have smashed his piggy bank and taken out all the money inside to come to Dongjiang.
He just didn't want to cause any trouble to Shen Pan, even the slightest bit of trouble.
Shen Zhu saw and remembered how Shen Pan was treated harshly by his parents at home when he was a child and how his parents favored him.
His sister shouldn't have to suffer this.
Now that he finally has a good home, Shen Zhu doesn't want to be a burden to Shen Pan.
Fortunately, his brother-in-law is a very nice person and he likes him very much.
Shen Zhu came this time for another purpose...
The move is complete.
Shen Pan was packing things in the house. She made a shopping list, and Lu Zhishu and Shen Zhu were responsible for going out to buy the things.
When shopping in the supermarket.
Shen Zhu suddenly grabbed Lu Zhishu and said, "Brother-in-law, I have something to tell you."
Lu Zhishu had been waiting for Shen Zhu's next words. "Just say whatever you want to say. I don't think you can hold it in any longer."
Shen Zhu: “…”
He lowered his head and took out a worn little lady's handbag from his pocket.
He pulled out a thick stack of red banknotes and handed it to Lu Zhishu.
Lu Zhishu was stunned for a moment, "What does this mean?"
"Brother-in-law, use this money to buy a ring for my sister and propose to her as soon as possible," Shen Zhu said, "When I was at home before, my mother told me that her good friend Zhou Mo was proposed to. I think my sister must be looking forward to the same proposal. There is nothing I can do for my sister. Your previous company went bankrupt and you owed a lot of money. You probably don't have money to buy a ring...so..."
Lu Zhishu looked at the innocent and serious little boy in front of him, and his heart was filled with emotion, which could not be expressed in words.
"Silly boy," Lu Zhishu pushed Shen Zhu's hand back, "even if I want to propose to your sister, you shouldn't pay for the ring. If I really can't even afford a ring, then I must be so poor that I might as well not marry your sister. I accept your kindness, but you can take the money yourself."
Looking at the silly boy Shen Zhu, Lu Zhishu smiled helplessly, “You really are… you can’t blame your sister for loving you.”
Shen Zhu also really feels sorry for Shen Pan.
"Thank you for reminding me. I wouldn't have realized this if you hadn't told me," Lu Zhishu said. "What little girl doesn't want a touching proposal ceremony? It's my fault. I was so busy with work and company matters that I completely forgot to consider her feelings. It was my fault for letting her suffer with me, and now I don't even think about proposing to her."
"It's okay, my sister is not the kind of person who cares about things," Shen Zhu said, "It's not too late now. I came here this time just to ask you to buy a ring quickly and propose to my sister."
"Speaking of proposing... there was actually a very suitable opportunity... at that time..."
Lu Zhishu couldn't help but recall the last time Song Yan used provocation to deliberately lie to him that he was going to propose to Shen Pan and tricked him to the beach.
