Chapter 404: Silly Pillar



"This..." The aunt was still a little hesitant after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said.

After all, it's okay to let her work, but if the deaf old lady really has to eat like this for nothing, especially since food is so tight now, the aunt would feel very distressed. After all, they are not related.

"It's okay. This old lady has helped me a lot recently. You know she has been telling me everywhere that our family is a good person. Just let her eat for free for a month." Yi Zhonghai said lightly.

Yi Zhonghai is still willing to spend money on these aspects, mainly because the investment in the deaf old lady is also here, so he tries his best to make friends with her. It's just a small condition, and he will be satisfied if it is met.

Yi Zhonghai wondered how many more years this deaf old lady could live, she was already so old.

But Yi Zhonghai obviously underestimated the deaf old lady, who could not die.

"Okay, then I'll tell the old lady tomorrow and let her eat at our house for a while." Although the aunt said this, she was actually very distressed. Now the money they saved was for their retirement, and food was so hard to get now.

If the deaf old lady eats at home for the next month, Yi Zhonghai will have to go to the black market to exchange for some expensive food, otherwise there will not be enough to eat. Besides, since the deaf old lady comes to eat together, he has to improve his meal this month, otherwise this damn old lady will complain again.

After telling Yi Zhonghai about this, the aunt went to prepare dinner.

But Yi Zhonghai grinned evilly: "Eat as much as you can. When you die, all of them will be mine."

It was obvious that Yi Zhonghai also knew about the deaf old lady's family background, and had been eyeing it for a long time, so Yi Zhonghai didn't care about the little money the deaf old lady had.

The next night.

The deaf old lady had received a notice from the aunt during the day, asking her to come over for dinner in the evening, so the aunt even specially prepared two dishes for the occasion.

But at this time, the situation at Sha Zhu's house was completely different. Sha Zhu was rummaging through the drawers and cabinets at home.

"Is there no food at home?" Sha Zhu muttered.

Sha Zhu rarely cooks at home. Being a cook does have its advantages. Sha Zhu secretly eats a lot every day. This kind of thing is really hard to control.

So, Sha Zhu was so busy today that he forgot to save some food for himself. When he got home he was extremely hungry. As a person who always eats a lot, it was hard for Sha Zhu to bear the sudden hunger.

But after searching around the house for a long time, I found nothing and instead became even hungrier.

Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and lay down on the bed ready to sleep, but it was too early, so he rolled around for a while before falling asleep.

There was no other choice, Sha Zhu decided to go out and beg for food, to see where he could get a bite to eat.

Sha Zhu opened the door, took a look at Jia Dongxu's house, and thought, no way, it's good enough if they don't eat me.

Then he looked at Yi Zhonghai's house.

When Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and prepared to go to Yi Zhonghai's house to beg for food, he turned around and saw a deaf old lady leaning on a cane.

When Sha Zhu saw this, he immediately stopped and went over to support the deaf old lady.

"Grandma, what are you doing so late at night? Why don't you stay at home and rest?" Sha Zhu said with concern.

"Grandson, what did you say?" asked the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady was so deaf that even Lin Tian came and didn't know whether she was really deaf or just pretending to be deaf.

"I...I said...why are you out so late instead of staying at home?" Sha Zhu shouted.

"Oh, keep your voice down, I heard it." said the deaf old lady unhappily.

"Okay, hurry up. If nothing else, I'll take you home." Sha Zhu still cared about the deaf old lady, so he prepared to take her home.

But the deaf old lady was going to Yi Zhonghai's house for dinner. If she just went back like that, it would be a waste of her efforts.

"Ah!" The deaf old lady tapped Sha Zhu lightly with her walking stick, and Sha Zhu exclaimed.

"Grandma, why are you hitting me?" asked Sha Zhu.

"I'm going to your uncle's house for dinner. Now your uncle's family and I are equally famous, so I'll eat at his house from now on." said the deaf old lady.

Sha Zhu was also very happy when he heard that.

First of all, if this deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai's family really become powerful, then everything for the deaf old lady will be protected in the future.

Secondly, I was worried about going to Yi Zhonghai's house to get some food, so I decided to follow the deaf old lady.

"Okay, that's a great thing, grandma. I'll help you over there. Go slowly." Sha Zhu took the initiative to step forward and support the deaf old lady as they walked towards Yi Zhonghai's house.

The deaf old lady didn't think much about it, thinking that Sha Zhu was just being filial, so she and Sha Zhu knocked on Yi Zhonghai's door together.

The lady who opened the door was a little stunned when she saw there were two people. Well, who would visit someone else's house at dinner time? You say, should I treat you to a meal or not?

But the auntie immediately reacted and said with a smile: "Shazhu is here too, come in quickly, the food is ready."

Sha Zhu agreed with a smile, and then helped the deaf old lady into the house.

The deaf old lady looked at Sha Zhu in surprise and said, "I'm here to eat. What are you doing here, Sha Zhu? You're so rude when someone calls you."

"Zhu Zi is here." Yi Zhonghai saw Sha Zhu and the deaf old lady coming in, and without getting up, he sat at the dining table and said lightly.

"Uncle." Sha Zhu smiled foolishly. Anyway, he had already made up his mind that he was here to eat for free, so he didn't care about shamelessness. He just wanted to eat first.

After hearing Sha Zhu's greeting, Yi Zhonghai nodded.

Yi Zhonghai's attitude towards Sha Zhu is acceptable, after all, he is his backup candidate for retirement.

So even though Yi Zhonghai could see that Sha Zhu was just here to eat for free, he didn't even bother to look at him.

Instead, he warmly invited Sha Zhu and the deaf old lady to sit down quickly, and the food was ready.

"Shazhu, how about a drink?" Yi Zhonghai took the initiative to say it when he saw Shazhu feeling a little restless.

Sha Zhu knew himself that he just came here to eat for free by relying on the help of the deaf old lady, so he felt a little uneasy.

But Yi Zhonghai took the initiative to invite him to drink, which solved his embarrassment.

Sha Zhu looked at Yi Zhonghai with some gratitude, then nodded.

"Drink less."

"Okay, then you wait, I'll go get some wine." After Yi Zhonghai said that, he got up and went to get some wine.

At this time, the only people left at the table were the deaf old lady and Sha Zhu.

The deaf old lady asked Sha Zhu: "Didn't you eat today?"

"Don't mention it. I didn't have anything to eat at work today, and there's no food at home. And now I just happened to meet you." Sha Zhu said with a depressed look on his face.

"What?" The deaf old lady pretended to be deaf and pretended not to hear what Sha Zhu said.

But Sha Zhu's mind was not on the deaf old lady at all. Instead, he was trying hard to smell what delicious food Yi Zhonghai's family had made today.
