Xu Damao took two deep drags of his cigarette and then exhaled them forcefully.
"I'll wait and see. I'm going to find out what kind of person Sha Zhu's blind date is, and what kind of good family would want to date Sha Zhu!"
"That makes sense. With that idiot Zhu's despicable character, he's still dreaming? What a joke."
Yan Jiecheng then chimed in with a similar comment.
He heard from his father, Yan Bugui, that Wang Dabao was in a relationship, and judging from how close they were, it might have been going on for quite a while, and they were probably about to get married.
If Yan Bugui hadn't happened to be ice fishing there, Wang Dabao would still be considered a bachelor by everyone in the compound.
According to Yan Bugui, the girl was very pretty.
She was tall and slender, with a beautiful appearance and elegant demeanor; she was clearly a girl from a high-ranking official's family.
Yan Jiecheng's heart skipped a beat. His father had met Yu Haitang before, and for him to describe Wang Dabao's girlfriend like that, she must be far superior to Yu Haitang.
This means his sister-in-law's chances are completely over.
Seeing that they could no longer curry favor with Wang Dabao, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li were heartbroken.
But it doesn't matter, there's Xu Damao by my side, so maybe we can make do with what we have.
"Uncle Dabao, my dad told us when he came back that my aunt is very beautiful. Yu Li and I are really looking forward to your wedding."
Although I didn't become Wang Dabao's brother-in-law, I still had to flatter him when the opportunity arose.
Wang Dabao waved his hand and laughed, "Oh, it's not as fast as you said, but I'll definitely let you know when the time comes for a wedding banquet."
Xu Damao, standing nearby, was stunned. What? Wang Dabao has a girlfriend now?
They're getting married soon?!
Now even Sha Zhu has to go on blind dates, so he's the only eligible young man left in this compound!
"Da Bao, are you going to get a girlfriend too?" Xu Damao's expression changed, as if he felt that Da Bao was getting a girlfriend but didn't tell him.
Wang Dabao almost laughed at his expression.
He reached out and patted Xu Damao hard on the shoulder: "Damao, it seems like you're the only one in your twenties who's fallen behind. You need to work hard and catch up, or even Shazhu will surpass you."
"Brother Da Bao is absolutely right."
Liu Haizhong nodded repeatedly with his large, fat face, completely agreeing with Wang Dabao's statement.
“Da Mao, I agree with Da Bao on this matter. You’ve been fighting with Sha Zhu for so many years. Don’t let Sha Zhu end up getting a big fat boy before you do.”
Yan Bugui glanced at Liu Haizhong from the side and thought to himself, "When have you ever disagreed with Da Bao?"
"Hey, Sha Zhu just went on a blind date. Whether it will work out or not is still uncertain. Maybe the girl doesn't even like Sha Zhu."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Everyone was only thinking that the girl didn't like Sha Zhu, and no one considered whether Sha Zhu liked her or not.
There's no other reason than that Sha Zhu looks way too old.
A young man in his twenties, walking around outside, would be addressed as "uncle" by men in their forties.
Add to that his foul mouth, and he's completely lost all his popularity in this compound.
Intermediate People's Court, Yi Zhonghai's home.
Yi Zhonghai, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, gazed at the dishes that Sha Zhu had brought over from the small kitchen, feeling extremely satisfied.
He barely slept these past two nights, his mind preoccupied with figuring out how to implement his plan.
Ever since he saw Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu cricketing by the pond that night, he immediately felt a sense of crisis.
Previously, we tried to bring these two closer together, but now we have to rack our brains to separate them.
The best solution would be to ask someone to introduce Sha Zhu to a potential partner, which would also make Qin Huairu give up on him – a win-win situation.
But when he thought of this, Yi Zhonghai was in a dilemma again.
Choosing the right person is a big problem. What if I can't win over Qin Huairu, or something goes wrong, and then I have to go back to Sha Zhu to take care of me, but Sha Zhu's wife is there to stop me?
Therefore, the choice of a partner for Sha Zhu needs to be arranged as soon as possible. The primary condition is that she must be honest and obedient, and Yi Zhonghai must be able to control her.
These past two days, Yi Zhonghai hasn't done anything else at the factory. He's put aside everything, important and unimportant, and finding a wife for Sha Zhu is the most important thing.
One reason is that they're afraid Sha Zhu might accidentally end up with someone else and become interested in marriage.
Secondly, he also wanted to put Qin Huairu's plan on the agenda as soon as possible.
Finally, hard work pays off, and Yi Zhonghai found a job, so he hurriedly arranged it for Sha Zhu.
You know, once a person's mind takes flight, it's hard for them to land again.
Ever since that day he massaged Qin Huairu's shoulder, he's been obsessed with seeing what that little shoulder looks like under her clothes. He's dreamed about it constantly, like he's been bewitched.
He had saved up quite a bit of money over the years, and if Qin Huairu agreed, he would definitely treat her well.
Everything was arranged by Yi Zhonghai.
Once Qin Huairu becomes pregnant, the two of them can easily pin the blame on Sha Zhu.
Everyone in the compound knew what Sha Zhu was thinking; he'd been coveting Qin Huairu's body for more than a year or two.
Furthermore, there weren't many people in the courtyard who could help Sha Zhu, so Sha Zhu ended up in a mess, unable to explain himself, and could only help Yi Zhonghai raise his son.
In this way, Yi Zhonghai had an heir, and afterwards, Sha Zhu raised the child and cared for the elderly.
My reputation is still intact, my spouse hasn't abandoned me, and I even have a son. What a wonderful thing this is! A perfect life is nothing more than this!
As for the worst option, Qin Huairu went to hide in the countryside after she became pregnant.
Anyway, Yi Zhonghai is rich. He can ask around and find a way to have a son. He's willing to risk anything to have a son.
After chatting with his wife for a few minutes, Yi Zhonghai went out the door and headed to the backyard.
We need to bring the deaf old lady along tonight. After all, she considers herself Sha Zhu's grandmother, and we can't leave her out of such an important moment.
"Grandma, you have no idea how much I had to ask around to find a partner for Zhuzi. Finally, I found someone suitable."
Yi Zhonghai sat on the kang (heated brick bed) of the deaf old woman, complaining, "This girl is good, honest and virtuous, definitely a good wife. You can just wait to hold your great-grandson."
"Good, good! With China Overseas overseeing things, it can't be bad."
Hearing this, the deaf old woman was so happy she couldn't stop smiling.
However, Yi Zhonghai hadn't finished speaking yet.
"Yeah, this girl is a bit chubby, but I don't think it's a problem. These days, being a little chubby is a good thing. It means we're eating well, and she probably won't lack breast milk after having a baby."
The deaf old woman nodded in agreement, “Yes, being a little chubby isn’t a problem.”
"That's what I told Zhuzi too. I'm just afraid he'll think she's fat. If he really does, you'll have to keep an eye on her." Yi Zhonghai whispered in the deaf old lady's ear, "We can't always be picky about her. To be honest, our Zhuzi is indeed a bit lacking in looks."
The deaf old woman stopped laughing upon hearing this, but after sighing, she nodded.
She admitted that her eldest grandson was indeed a bit unattractive.
"Okay, I'll try to persuade Zhu Zi."
