Sha Zhu swallowed hard, ignoring Yi Zhonghai's constant winks, but showed no intention of correcting him.
At this point, Sha Zhu had already decided to give up!
After Liu Yuhua made two "oh" sounds, she asked in a gruff voice, "Are you really stupid?"
Upon hearing this, the people watching the commotion in the courtyard burst into laughter, while Liu Yuhua's mother and aunt turned pale.
"It's just a nickname that people use to call each other casually."
Before Sha Zhu could answer, Yi Zhonghai quickly stepped forward to explain.
However, at this moment, Liu Yuhua's gaze turned to Yan Jiecheng, Xu Damao, Liu Guangtian and the others who were laughing heartily. "What are you laughing at?"
Upon hearing Liu Yuhua's gruff question and feeling the oppressive aura emanating from his over 200-pound frame, the laughter of Liu Guangtian and his two companions abruptly ceased.
"What are you laughing at?"
Even after the others stopped laughing, Liu Yuhua continued to press them with a serious and earnest expression.
Yan Jiecheng turned his head and glanced at Xu Damao and Liu Guangtian. He had pulled Liu Haizhong earlier, which caused him to end up in front of these two, and now Liu Yuhua's gaze was fixed on him.
Despite Yan Bugui's thin frame, Yan Jiecheng is quite tall and sturdy, but it depends on who he's compared to.
Standing in front of Liu Yuhua, he looked just like a little chick.
"No...nothing to laugh about. Today is a good day, so we're just having a laugh."
"Yes, it's Xiaoxiao."
Behind him, Liu Guangtian pursed his lips and said something as well, but he was clearly not confident enough.
Fortunately, after hearing the reply, Liu Yuhua stopped dwelling on the issue and was pulled by her mother to start introducing herself.
“My name is Liu Yuhua, and I am the second child in my family. People who know me call me Erpang (Second Fatty), so you can call me that too.”
Sha Zhu was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that Zhu Bajie's second aunt didn't seem to be very clever either, as she seemed rather dazed.
"Pfft!!!"
As soon as Liu Yuhua finished speaking, Liu Guangtian, Yan Jiecheng, and Xu Damao laughed again.
Liu Yuhua stepped forward and said, "Are you guys crazy? What are you laughing at?"
The large, dark figure loomed forward, barking menacingly. Liu Guangtian was so frightened he almost wet himself. He quickly turned and slipped behind Xu Damao, muttering, "Just a laugh, nothing more."
"We're just congratulating Sha Zhu on his good fortune. We just think you and Sha Zhu are a perfect match," Xu Damao said, smacking his lips.
Yi Zhonghai, who was standing nearby, quickly said to Liu Yuhua's mother, "We have distinguished guests. Let's not stand at the door. Let's go inside and chat. It's quite cold outside with the wind blowing."
"Yes, yes, let's all welcome Comrade Liu Yuhua and her family."
Yan Bugui blinked his small eyes, awkwardly added a comment, and then clapped his hands twice.
Upon seeing this, everyone clapped their hands as well.
After Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu led Liu Yuhua and the other two into the courtyard, Liu Guangtian finally stepped out from behind Sha Zhu.
Patting his chest, Liu Guangtian looked relieved: "My goodness, that must have weighed over 300 pounds! Can Sha Zhu's small frame handle it? He's just taking a beating."
"I think she wants to hit me. If she marries into our compound, she'll definitely be a tyrant. Anyone who dares to mess with Sha Zhu will have to think twice."
Yan Jiecheng said quietly, "In this courtyard, only Shazhu can afford to keep this thing. Other people really can't."
Xu Damao nodded in deep agreement.
"Don't worry, Sha Zhu's blind date will definitely not work out. When he sees this woman, Sha Zhu will immediately compare her with Qin Huairu in his mind, and it will be obvious who wins and who loses."
"You guys didn't see Sha Zhu's face just now, he probably wished he were dead," Yan Jiecheng said, suppressing a laugh.
Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this, and Liu Guangtian even shouted loudly that Xu Damao didn't need to twist his head anymore.
At the Intermediate People's Court, Yi Zhonghai's wife heard voices approaching and quickly lifted the curtain to greet them.
Upon seeing the "girl" surrounded by a crowd, his expression was almost identical to that of Sha Zhu.
She had heard from her husband that the girl was a bit chubby, but he hadn't said she was this chubby. It's rare to see someone this fat these days.
Yi Zhonghai's wife glanced subconsciously at their door frame, using her eyes to gauge whether his large frame could fit inside.
As the group entered the house, Yi Zhonghai quickly and warmly introduced Aunt Yi and the deaf old lady.
The deaf old woman standing in front of Liu Yuhua looked almost like a little white mouse.
After Yi Zhonghai finished his introduction, Liu Yuhua stretched out her two plump hands and tightly grasped one of the deaf old women's hands, saying in a deep voice, "Grandma, right? I wish you a long and healthy life."
Perhaps feeling that this was too perfunctory, Liu Yuhua added after thinking for two seconds, "Or you could live to ninety, that would also mean longevity."
The deaf old woman's small face immediately froze.
Good heavens! This fat girl's words cost her ten years of her life!
She'll be eighty-nine after the New Year, which means she should die next year.
Liu Yuhua's mother quickly came over and grabbed the deaf old woman's arm, "Oh dear, my child is just so kind-hearted. Please don't take it to heart, old lady. She just wanted to wish you a long life."
"Longevity is good, longevity is good."
The deaf old woman took the opportunity to pull her hand out of Liu Yuhua's big, fat hand; if she hadn't, she felt that the other woman could have broken her bones by gripping her so tightly.
Yi Zhonghai's wife picked out the sturdiest stool at home for Liu Yuhua to sit on, but even so, the moment Liu Yuhua sat down, she was still worried that it would collapse.
"How about this, we're just getting in the way, let the two kids talk alone."
Seeing that Sha Zhu had a stern face ever since he met Liu Yuhua, Yi Zhonghai's heart began to pound. "Zhu Zi, take Yuhua to your room. If this works out, it will be Yuhua's home. Let's go and get acquainted with the place first."
Despite his long face, Sha Zhu still observed proper etiquette, even lifting the curtain slightly for the "big girl" when they left.
As Liu Yuhua squeezed out of the door, Sha Zhu subconsciously swallowed. This was terrifying!
The two arrived at Sha Zhu's house.
Yi Zhonghai had previously instructed Sha Zhu to tidy up the house. At this point, it appeared clean on the surface, but only compared to usual.
"Comrade He Yuzhu, I'm not very good at talking, but I think you're a very nice person."
Liu Yuhua sat on Sha Zhu's bed, fidgeting with her chubby hands, and slowly said, "Uncle Yi told me that you are a cook at the steel mill, and you are not young anymore. You really want to get married. I think your family is not short of food and drink, so I agreed to come and meet you."
Sha Zhu nodded repeatedly, thinking to himself that this fat girl was indeed honest.
However, he's also quite muscular; he might collapse the bed frame, or he won't have anywhere to sleep at night.
