Xu Damao hurriedly pushed his bicycle to the factory to get the projector to go to the countryside to show movies, for fear that Sha Zhu would block him.
Liu Haizhong was not the only one in the courtyard who told Lin Tian about Sha Zhu's plan to look for a widow.
The stories spread by those old ladies mentioned above are even more outrageous.
"Do you think this Sha Zhu likes the widow because his father ran off with the widow?" Hai Yong's wife said to others with a smile.
"That's really possible. Otherwise, who would like a widow? Who wouldn't want to marry a virgin?" said the second aunt. The second aunt was the same as Liu Haizhong. When she spoke of Sha Zhu, her words were full of contempt.
"What kind of widow do you think this Sha Zhu likes?" asked Old Lady Qin in the front yard.
Some people shook their heads, while others looked at Jia Zhang who was standing silently aside. Recently, Old Lady Qin had not been targeting Jia Zhang because of the thermos incident, so Jia Zhang came out again.
"What are you looking at me for!" Jia Zhang said unhappily.
At first, Jia Zhang didn't react why everyone was looking at her. When she saw everyone's strange looks, Jia Zhang slowly came to her senses. Who else in the courtyard was a widow? It was her Qin Huairu.
After Jia Zhang figured it out, she was so angry that her face turned green.
"Just talk nonsense!" Seeing that everyone was looking at her with unfriendly eyes, Jia Zhang was so angry that she went home cursing.
Jia Zhang returned home angrily, and became even angrier when she saw Qin Huairu there.
He walked over and twisted Qin Huairu's arm hard.
"Mom! What are you doing?" Qin Huairu was frightened by Jia Zhang's behavior and stood up from the stool in pain.
"What? What do you think I'm doing? People outside are saying that Shazhu likes widows!" Jia Zhang said angrily.
Qin Huairu felt a little guilty, but still asked seriously: "Mom, what does his proud widow have to do with our family?"
"Hmph, there are other widows in our courtyard!" Jia Zhang said unhappily.
"Mom, I haven't talked to Sha Zhu for a long time. You can't blame me for this!" Qin Huairu said aggrievedly. She was really scared just now. She thought that the fact that Sha Zhu was taken to the wide-brimmed hat a few days ago had leaked out.
"I don't care whether you talked to him or not, you have to be honest with me, otherwise I will never let you go!" Jia Zhang said arrogantly.
Qin Huairu said aggrievedly: "I know, Mom, don't worry!"
"Mom, who said Shazhu likes widows?" Qin Huairu asked.
"What's the matter? Do you have any ideas?" Jia Zhang said, staring at Qin Huairu with sidelong eyes.
Qin Huairu shook her head and said, "No, no, I just want to ask who is plotting against our family!"
Jia Zhang's face looked better now. After thinking for a while, she said, "They are saying outside that Sha Zhu went on a blind date and specifically mentioned that he wanted to find a widow!"
"Mom, that has nothing to do with us!" Qin Huairu felt even more aggrieved. She didn't do anything, but her arm was twisted blue by Jia Zhang.
"Oh, yes!" Only then did Jia Zhang realize that this matter had nothing to do with her family. It was just that Old Madam Qin was deliberately talking about her!
"It's all because of that guy named Qin. If it weren't for her, no one would say anything bad about our family!" Jia Zhang said angrily.
"Mom, forget it." Qin Huairu comforted.
Jia Zhang knew she had done something wrong and kept silent.
In the afternoon, Sha Zhu heard from somewhere that others said that he specifically went looking for widows for blind dates.
"Damn it! Damn it!" Sha Zhu was so angry that he kept walking around in circles in the room, cursing under his breath.
After walking around the house for a while, Sha Zhu still couldn't swallow his anger, so he rushed out of the house and rushed to the backyard.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Sha Zhu ran to Xu Damao's house and started banging on the door. After a while, Lou Xiao'e came over and opened the door for Sha Zhu.
"Where is Xu Damao?!" Sha Zhu shouted.
Lou Xiao'e was frightened by Sha Zhu's ferocious appearance, and then said in annoyance: "Not at home, not at home!"
"You're really not at home?" Sha Zhu didn't quite believe what Lou Xiao'e said and looked behind her.
Lou Xiao'e was so angry that she wanted to close the door and take a nap at home, but was awakened by Sha Zhu banging on the door.
Sha Zhu stopped Lou Xiao'e from closing the door and asked, "Is Xu Damao hiding in the house?"
"I said he is not at home, he went to the countryside! He just left!" Lou Xiao'e said impatiently, then pushed Sha Zhu and closed the door.
Sha Zhu ran to Xu Damao's window again, looked into the house, and found that Xu Damao was indeed not at home, so he could only leave in disappointment.
But on the way home, Sha Zhu became more and more angry. It was just right that he was not at home. If he was beaten up outside, he would have no place to complain.
At this time, Sha Zhu remembered that Xu Damao had just left, so he ran out.
When Sha Zhu ran to the gate of the steel mill panting and asked the guard, he found out that Xu Damao had just left the gate of the steel mill, less than five minutes ago.
"Uncle, did you see which direction he went?" Sha Zhu asked anxiously. He now wanted very badly to catch Xu Damao and give him a good beating.
"Over there!" The old man thought for a while and pointed in the direction to Sha Zhu.
Sha Zhu ran over there as soon as he could, but unfortunately, Sha Zhu's legs could not catch up with Xu Damao's wheels. After chasing for more than ten minutes, Sha Zhu didn't even see a single person.
"Okay, you ran fast. We're not done yet. We'll wait for you to come back!" Sha Zhu said while gasping for breath.
On the way home, Sha Zhu thought for a long time, and finally ran to the group of old women outside the yard to spread the rumor to Xu Damao.
As expected, as soon as Sha Zhu arrived, someone asked, "Sha Zhu, I heard you went on a blind date yesterday? How was it?"
"Needless to say, there are too many people who like me, but I just don't like any of them." Sha Zhu said shamelessly, and everyone felt contempt when they heard it.
"But everyone listen to me, there's nothing wrong for a grown man like me to go on a blind date. But you said that Xu Damao also went on a blind date yesterday. You said he is already married, so he did this, does he have any shame? I feel embarrassed for Xu Damao since we live in the same compound together." Sha Zhu said confidently.
When everyone heard this, they thought there was something else going on and asked hurriedly, "What did Xu Damao do?"
"He went for a blind date, but in the end he was kicked out by me and the people from the street office. It was so embarrassing!" Sha Zhu said disdainfully.
"Really?"
"How can this be false? Do you think he is worthy of his wife? I guess his wife doesn't even know about this." Sha Zhu said confidently.
After Sha Zhu criticized Xu Damao in front of everyone with exaggerated remarks, he went home happily.
As soon as he arrived at the central courtyard, Sha Zhu saw Qin Huairu washing clothes there.
For a moment, Sha Zhu was stunned as he stared at Qin Huairu who was bending over to wash clothes.
