Siheyuan: I have a mental illness

After hearing Wang the matchmaker's question, Yi Zhonghai and Gao both turned their eyes to Sha Zhu. Gao frowned slightly, with a hint of curiosity and doubt in her eyes, after all, she had never seen Tian Ximei in person. Yi Zhonghai was different, he had seen Tian Ximei's beauty before and was deeply impressed.

I have to admit that Tian Ximei is indeed a real beauty. Even compared with the graceful Qin Huairu, she is not inferior. If we have to find some flaws, it is probably that she is a little short, as Wang the matchmaker said. However, for people at that time, this was not a big flaw.

You have to know that life was hard and supplies were scarce in that era, and the nutritional status of most people was not satisfactory, so it is not surprising that people were generally shorter.

But, look at Tian Ximei, the bright "headlights" on her chest are not smaller than Qin Huairu's at all; and the round and perky buttocks, just one look at it will tell that she is a good fertile person. Such a girl, with Sha Zhu, is more than enough!

At this time, Sha Zhu met Wang the matchmaker's gaze, thought for a while, and then slowly opened his mouth, telling her the content of his conversation with Tian Ximei without reservation and verbatim.

At first, Yi Zhonghai was still listening with great interest, but as time went on, his expression gradually became gloomy.

Because, during her communication with Sha Zhu, Tian Ximei somehow touched upon the bottom line of authority that Yi Zhonghai held in his heart, which undoubtedly made him quite angry.

You know, Yi Zhonghai now completely depends on Sha Zhu to support him in his old age.

If Sha Zhu found a girl like Tian Ximei, it can be said that Yi Zhonghai's road to retirement would have one more obstacle.

After all, Tian Ximei also has a family to support.

If Sha Zhu goes to support Tian Ximei's family, then Yi Zhonghai's quality of life will decline in the future.

Or maybe Shazhu won't support him in his old age.

If that's the case, Tian Ximei was introduced to Sha Zhu by Yi Zhonghai.

Does this count as shooting oneself in the foot?

Matchmaker Wang is a smart person since she can make a living in this line of work.

She had also inquired about Sha Zhu's situation early on and knew that Sha Zhu was the person Yi Zhonghai chose for his retirement.

However, now Tian Ximei asked Sha Zhu to help their family, which was considered to be touching Yi Zhonghai's cake.

So, at this moment, Matchmaker Wang became speechless and had no idea how to respond.

She slowly turned her eyes to Yi Zhonghai and said with difficulty: "Oh, uncle, look at what this has caused! This girl actually did nothing wrong, but the demands she made were indeed a little excessive. But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be human nature."

And who is Yi Zhonghai? He is the one who always says "Respect the old and love the young"!

What's more, at this moment, Sha Zhu is standing here! He has to maintain his good image of being highly respected at all times. He can't just yell at Tian Ximei in front of everyone, right?

So he had to force a smile and said in a gentle voice: "As for the girl's appearance, there is nothing to fault. She is very pretty! As for the requests she made, to be fair, they are not too excessive.

It’s a pity that nowadays, if you want to marry her, you will not only have to support her two younger brothers and one younger sister, but also her parents.

My goodness, all these together mean that we have to support five more people! Just imagine how many families in this city can't even fill their own stomachs! Five more mouths to feed all of a sudden, how many families can afford such a heavy pressure!

It's not that I didn't mean to let Zhuzi support their family. Even if I nodded in agreement and helped a little, I would still be powerless! Alas...it seems that Zhuzi and this girl are not destined to be together!"

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Sha Zhu opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to refute something. The words "I can afford it" were already on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them back. After all, Yi Zhonghai had already said so, and it would be inappropriate for him to jump out and sing a different tune. So, Sha Zhu could only shut his mouth silently and bury the words he was about to say deep in his heart.

Wang, the matchmaker, couldn't help but sneer when she heard what Yi Zhonghai said. The girl just said that she could help out, and although she didn't specify how to help, it certainly wouldn't be as exaggerated as Yi Zhonghai said, that she would have to support Tian Ximei's whole family!

At most, he would send some money or food to Tian Ximei's parents every month. Yi Zhonghai obviously deliberately distorted the meaning of Tian Ximei's words.

However, when Matchmaker Wang saw that Sha Zhu obeyed Yi Zhonghai so well, she could not say much and could only smile and say, "Okay, I will help keep an eye out for you later. If there is a suitable girl, I will bring her here for Comrade He Yuzhu to meet."

Yi Zhonghai nodded with satisfaction and responded with a smile: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Matchmaker Wang! Zhuzi is really not young anymore, he should have started a family and established a career. I'll have to rely on you to take care of him!"

Yi Zhonghai chatted with Matchmaker Wang for a while. After sending her away, Yi Zhonghai's face became gloomy.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu and asked, "Zhu Zi, you are not thinking about agreeing to that girl, are you?"

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu looked at Yi Zhonghai, nodded, then shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but Tian Ximei is pretty."

Aunt Gao frowned after hearing what Sha Zhu said, and said to Sha Zhu: "Zhu Zi, when it comes to marriage and living together, you can't just focus on appearance.

The purpose of this girl's marriage is very obvious, which is to help her support her family.

"Zhuzi, think about it, what will you do when you have a child? Will you sacrifice your own child to support her younger siblings?"

Gao's words were like a steel needle that pierced Sha Zhu's heart. Sha Zhu almost jumped up and yelled, "You wish! How could I sacrifice my own child to support her younger brothers and sisters?"

Yi Zhonghai said: "Zhu Zi, your 37.5 yuan a month is barely enough to support their family.

But have you ever thought about this, if you spend all your money on them, what will your children eat and use when you have them in the future?

If your child is sick, can you help him without money? If your aunt and I are sick, can you help us without money? "
