Hahahaha, as soon as Ma Hua finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter. No doubt about it, that half-pig face of Sha Zhu is truly unworthy. Hahaha.
"And what do you mean I intercepted her? I already knew Qin Huairu's cousin, so how is that intercepting her? What's wrong with friends meeting up and going out for a walk?"
This is a new society now, the Qing Dynasty is long gone! Are you suggesting you force someone to marry Sha Zhu just because they didn't like him?"
"And another thing. Sha Zhu, how dare you go on blind dates? You look like Pigsy from Journey to the West! Don't you know what you look like? You're almost a decade old, and you still have the nerve to go on blind dates. You're really shameless. And what about you guys?"
Using fake news to deceive young girls, and you even have the nerve to call it a blind date? Don't embarrass our department! If this gets out, how are all the unmarried young men and women in our department supposed to find partners?!
"I feel ashamed just thinking about it. How dare you say such a thing so shamelessly? Ugh, disgusting!"
After Ma Hua finished speaking, he spat on the ground, seemingly expressing his disgust at this behavior.
Upon hearing Ma Hua's words, the onlookers immediately became serious. It was already embarrassing enough that a thief had appeared in their yard, but now this had happened too? If word got out, how would their sons ever get married?
In this era, people still have a strong sense of honor, except for a few individuals. Even if Sha Zhu steals things and is infatuated with Qin Huairu, he will use the excuse of seeing that Sister Qin's family is not well-off and taking care of her as a neighbor.
You might not feel it inside the courtyard house, but once you leave, people will come up to you and ask which courtyard you live in. I'll say I'm from No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.
"Oh, I know, that thief who tricked the little girl was from your neighborhood, wasn't he!" Then a disdainful look will fall on you; there's nothing you can do about it.
In the hutongs, the courtyard houses are a unified whole; they rise and fall together. This is why Yi Zhonghai previously held absolute power in the courtyard houses, often using moral blackmail to cover up his misdeeds, which everyone accepted.
With Sha Zhu's incident, not only will the reputation of the courtyard house be ruined, but the reputation of Nanluo Street will probably be completely tarnished. The onlookers realized this and immediately became anxious, shouting that Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu needed to give them an explanation.
"I'm sorry, I didn't think this through. But when I introduced Zhu to Jingru, he was still the head chef at our factory. I didn't expect that. I'm sorry everyone, I really thought Zhu was a good catch."
I sincerely wanted to introduce my cousin to Zhu Zi, but I never expected so many things to happen afterward. I'm so sorry." Qin Huairu looked at everyone with teary eyes.
When Sha Zhu saw Qin Huairu apologize, he immediately snorted coldly: "What explanation? Let me tell you, is Sister Qin wrong?"
"It's all because my cousin Qin is blind to my worth! Humph, don't say she looks down on me, I wouldn't even look at her! She's just a country girl; if she weren't Qin's cousin, how would she have had the chance to go on a blind date with me!"
After Sha Zhu finished speaking, he slightly raised his chin, his eyes filled with disdain. "Hmph, this has nothing to do with Sister Qin anymore, right?"
When everyone heard Sha Zhu say that, they fell silent, their jaws nearly dropping in astonishment. Good heavens, they had all met Qin Jingru; she was incredibly beautiful. And you still look down on her? It's laughable!
"Alright, Sha Zhu, we're from the same compound, stop pretending. Everyone knows each other. You look down on him? If you really had someone who wanted you, how could you still be single? Hahahaha!"
Xu Damao sneered from the sidelines. He had initially been reluctant to speak up for Ma Hua because of the Ma Hua allegedly snatching Qin Jingru's job, and had been watching the drama unfold. However, seeing Sha Zhu's reaction, he couldn't hold back any longer.
"You, you're talking nonsense!" The self-satisfied Sha Zhu immediately rushed in front of Xu Damao and unleashed his "Child-Cutting Kick" at him.
Damn it, Sha Zhu was already furious, and now that Xu Damao dared to provoke him, he couldn't hold back any longer.
"Ah, you idiot Zhu, you bastard!" Xu Damao cried out in pain, clutching his groin. Xu Damao hadn't expected Zhu to dare hit him; he'd been careless and hadn't dodged.
"Hmph, your Uncle Zhu isn't married because he looks down on them, unlike you, Xu Damao, who, even if you were married, would still be a barren rooster!"
Silly Zhu unleashed a torrent of profanity at Xu Damao. He might not dare attack MCA, but he certainly wouldn't dare attack Xu Damao?
"Grandpa, Sha Zhu hit someone! Aren't you going to do anything about it?" Xu Damao looked at Yi Zhonghai in anguish.
"Ahem, Zhu Zi, stop hitting people! We're all neighbors in the same courtyard, stop right now! And Xu Damao, why are you humiliating Zhu Zi?"
"I think you deserved to be beaten. Alright, I see you're not seriously hurt, so let's just let it go. I'm doing this for your own good, you know?" Yi Zhonghai's tone grew increasingly harsh until he directly reprimanded Xu Damao.
The people in the courtyard were used to this. Countless times, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao had argued, and as long as Sha Zhu didn't come out worse, Yi Zhonghai would never intervene. Xu Damao deserved it; he was weak and had a big addiction.
“MCA, Zhu Zi was indeed in the wrong, but you shouldn’t have hit him. However, since this is your first time, you won’t be allowed to do this again, or don’t blame me for being impolite.”
Yi Zhonghai was also getting anxious. If things were rushed, it was ultimately Sha Zhu's fault. It was better to adjourn the meeting quickly.
Seeing that she hadn't gained anything, Jia Zhangshi was about to mutter something when Qin Huairu immediately pulled her away. "Silly mother-in-law," she thought, "can't you see what's going on?"
What's wrong? Do you really have to drag this out and accuse me of harming your relatives? Hurry up and leave! If we can't deal with the MCA, we can certainly deal with Qin Jingru!
