Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

After returning home, Sha Zhu closed the door and started thinking. What happened today completely overturned his three views. He just couldn't figure out why Yi Zhonghai was like this? Was it just for the sake of retirement?

And there was the smiling look on Yi Zhonghai's face as he was comforting him just now. If he hadn't known in advance that it was Yi Zhonghai who ruined his blind date, he would never have believed that such a kind person could do such a thing behind his back.

Moreover, even after doing bad things, she could still act as if nothing had happened in front of him. Sha Zhu really couldn’t understand it. Are human hearts really that evil?

Thinking about Sha Zhu gave him a headache. Now he wanted Li Kangri to help him solve his doubts, he wanted to do so very much.

So he leaned against the window and waited.

After a while, Li Kangri and Xu Damao appeared in the yard.

When Sha Zhu saw Li Kangri, he felt like he had seen a life-saving straw. He opened the door and ran to the backyard.

At the backyard door, seeing Sha Zhu looking confused and decadent, Li Kangri knew that the fish had taken the bait and Sha Zhu was in pain.

But he just smiled and opened the door without saying anything.

"Shazhu, why are you so anxious? Did Widow Qin bite your butt?" As he said that, Xu Damao looked behind Shazhu, as if he wanted to see Shazhu's butt.

"Get out, I'm annoyed!" Sha Zhu said angrily.

"Hey! Why don't you two just get married? I think it's really suitable for you to get married. Silly Zhu, why don't you go to Thailand for a while?" Li Kangri joked.

"Thailand?" Sha Zhu asked in confusion, "Why go to Thailand?"

"It's a great place to turn a man into a woman."

Hearing Li Kangri's words, Sha Zhu felt a chill and shuddered, then said, "I won't go. If anyone wants to go, it should be Xu Damao."

"Ugh!" Xu Damao retched, "You're disgusting!"

Joking like this, several people walked into the house. Li Kangri sat down carelessly and said, "I know what you want to say, but don't say it now. We are hungry! Let's cook first and talk while we eat."

"Ah! We have to wait longer!" Sha Zhu shouted.

"Do you want me to talk to you while I'm hungry? If so, I can't guarantee that what I say is accurate." Li Kangri said slowly.

"Okay!" After saying that, Shazhu went to the kitchen.

As soon as Sha Zhu left, Xu Damao immediately asked, "Master, Sha Zhu is not right today! Did something happen?"

"Haha, I guess the fish he didn't want to catch got caught, so he's upset, confused, and tangled!"

"You mean..." Xu Damao said in surprise, "Shazhu's blind date was ruined today? Was it Yi Zhonghai? Or the widow Qin?"

"I don't know, maybe it's both! Don't provoke him later. Actually, apart from his bad temper and being a bit lustful, Shazhu is okay in other aspects. Don't always pick on him." Li Kangri resolved the situation.

"Well, Master, you don't know how many times he beat me. How could I forget all this? Do you know how desperate I was when I was lying under his feet?" Xu Damao said hatefully.

Seeing Xu Damao like this, Li Kangri also understood him, so he said, "How about this! When you can beat him, give him a good beating and make him despair under your feet, and then go!"

"Can I?" Xu Damao said with a sigh, "No, at least five times. Five times is too easy for him."

"Then five times. Believe in yourself. In half a year, Sha Zhu won't be your opponent." Li Kangri encouraged.

……

An hour later, inside the house, five people gathered around the table to eat.

At the dinner table, Sha Zhu was preoccupied and had no appetite for the four meat dishes.

"Chef He, come on! Start your story. I see that you have no appetite. You talk and we will listen." Li Kangri said.

"Well..." Sha Zhu looked up at Lou Xiao'e and Qing He and said, "How about I talk to you alone later?"

"Don't be shy, it's okay. They won't spread the news. Besides, more people can help you solve your doubts better, right?"

"Okay!" Sha Zhu said helplessly, "I'm going on a blind date today!..."

So, Sha Zhu described in detail what happened today.

"Really? Qin Huairu went to your room to look for some pants to wash?" Lou Xiao'e asked in surprise, "And an old man stopped the person you were looking for and said bad things about you?"

"Really!" Sha Zhu said dejectedly.

"Pfft!"

Xu Damao couldn't help laughing, "Shazhu, I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it, hahahaha... Master, you are so amazing, Widow Qin actually went to Shazhu's room to look for pants, why don't you teach me how to read fortune-telling!"

"Go away, you don't have that talent. This requires talent. Ask me, I'll explain it to you."

"I just can't understand why it was me?" Sha Zhu asked puzzledly, "Who did I offend? Is it that serious? One by one they caught me and I realized now that the reason I couldn't get married for all these years was because someone was trying to sabotage them. Moreover, one of them is the one I respect the most, and the other is someone I often help. Aaaaaa..." As he said this, Sha Zhu burst into tears.

Seeing Sha Zhu like this, everyone felt sympathy for him, especially Lou Xiaoe, who almost burst into tears at this moment.

Even Xu Damao looked like he wanted to cry. At this moment, he felt that Sha Zhu was so pitiful, and it seemed that he had let go of a lot of his previous hatred.

"Hey!" Li Kangri sighed, "Da Mao, there is a bottle of wine in the cabinet in my room. Go and get it for Chef He to drink."

After receiving the order, Xu Damao quickly went to get the wine, and then poured a glass for Sha Zhu attentively, "Sha Zhu, come and have a drink with you. This is Maotai, it's a bargain for you."

After taking the wine, Sha Zhu drank it in one gulp, and Xu Damao quickly filled Sha Zhu's glass again.

Just like that, after drinking a few bottles in a row, Sha Zhu finally came to his senses, then wiped his tears and said, "Xiao Li, tell me! Why me? There are so many people in the courtyard, the three sons of the Yan family, the three of Liu Haizhong, and many men who are similar to me, including Xu Damao! Why me?"

"Haha, because you have no parents, because you have a bad temper, because you are stupid, because you are a cook, because you..." Li Kangri said, "Too many, I don't want to say them all, all of these combined, you are the best candidate, this is not the fault of others, really not the fault of others, just like the first time you and I had a conflict, did the matter between me and the Jia family have anything to do with you? Why didn't other people come up to beat me? Did the Jia family thank you for accompanying me for eight hundred days? Did they say they would help you bear some of the responsibility?"

"Well...is there anything wrong with me being nice to people?" Sha Zhu said unconvinced.

"Haha, your kindness to someone means it is based on the pain of another person?" Li Kangri questioned, "You hit me, but if you hit Xu Damao that day, would you pay compensation? Have you ever thought about how Xu Damao felt when you hit him? He just said he was desperate, do you know what despair is?"
