1952: Walking through Nantongluo Alley

After saying that, he didn't forget to show off to Zhang Wanrong, which made Zhang Wanrong so angry that she gritted her teeth.

She clenched her fists and murmured in her heart.

Wanrong, there's no need for you to be so angry. You have nothing to do with Chen Xiao. You only met once and you're not even friends.

He has a family and his wife is pregnant.

"Chen Xiao, you are really good! You get married at the beginning of the year and have a baby at the end of the year!" Zhang Aiguo joked.

Feng Caihe rolled her eyes at him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? The date is already March, and the baby will be born in January of the following year."

Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly.

It was already late, so he stood up and said goodbye to Zhang Aiguo and his family.

"Uncle Zhang, Auntie, it's getting late now. Huairu and I should go back."

"Please come to my house again next time you have the chance." Zhang Aiguo said politely.

"sure."

After saying that, Chen Xiao took Qin Huairu's hand and stood up and walked out the door. Zhang Aiguo and his family went out to see them off.

The driver was waiting at the door. Chen Xiao opened the door and helped Qin Huairu sit in.

After a bumpy ride in the military jeep, Chen Xiao felt drowsy. Just when he was about to fall asleep, the driver stopped the car.

"Young comrade, we've arrived." The driver said to Chen Xiao through the rearview mirror.

Chen Xiao and Qin Huairu got out of the car. As the driver drove away, Qin Huairu twisted Chen Xiao's waist.

Chen Xiao, who was feeling a little sleepy, suddenly became alert.

"Huai Ru, why are you pinching me?"

"Why did I pinch you? Wasn't it great to be a hero saving the beauty just now? Isn't it more comfortable than hugging me?"

Chen Xiao understood that Qin Huairu was jealous.

He reached out and held Qin Huairu in his arms, gently touched her cheek, and spoke softly.

"I can't handle you alone, and if you add another one, I'll be exhausted to death."

Qin Huairu blushed, lay in Chen Xiao's arms, clenched her fist and punched him on the chest.

"Hate it, what nonsense are you talking about again? The neighbors will hear you again."

"It's so late, where are the neighbors?"

After saying that, Chen Xiao prepared to touch Qin Huairu.

At this moment, Qin Huairu suddenly frowned and pushed Chen Xiao away.

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiao asked puzzledly.

"Chen Xiao, there's something I don't know whether I should tell you..." Qin Huairu frowned, clenched her hands in front of her chest, obviously hesitating whether to say it or not.

"Is there anything we can't talk about?"

"Then I'll tell you..."

Qin Huairu lowered her clenched fists and let out a long sigh.

Then he said to Chen Xiao.

"I don't know why, but I feel like the way that guy called Shazhu looks at me is a little weird, and it makes me feel uncomfortable..."

"I also know that you two have a good relationship, Shazhu. I even call you Brother Chen Xiao all the time."

"But...every time he looks at me like this, I always feel uncomfortable and even a little disgusted."

After listening to it, Chen Xiao finally understood what was going on.

She patted Qin Huairu's shoulder.

"Go home and boil some water for me to wash my feet. I'll go to Huaiguo to take a look."

"As for Shazhu, leave this matter to me."

"Well... Shazhu is a pretty good person, don't go too far... Just talk to him in person one day. I think he's old enough to get married, so..."

Bringing Qin Huairu to his doorstep, Chen Xiao rode his bicycle to find Qin Huaiguo.

Chen Xiao and Qin Huairu came back by car, while Sha Zhu walked and has not yet arrived home.

In the yard where Qin Huaiguo lived, he was processing the steamed konjac flour.

Seeing his brother-in-law coming, he stood up and greeted him.

"Brother-in-law, it's so late today. What's the matter with you coming here?"

Chen Xiao glanced at the konjac in the yard. A rough look showed that there were at least a thousand kilograms.

"Brother-in-law, don't look any further. There are 1000 kilograms of konjac here. If we sell 500 kilograms a day, it's more than enough for two days."

Chen Xiao nodded in satisfaction at Qin Huaiguo's approach.

Qin Huaiguo was quite interested in this deal.

He had just said that 500 kilograms were needed a day, but Qin Huaiguo directly dug 1000 kilograms a day.

This way, there is no need to stop and start digging konjac one day after selling it. 500 kilograms of konjac can be cooked every day.

"Huaiguo, if you're too busy one day, go call Qin Dazhuang over to help."

Qin Huaiguo shook his head.

"No, I can still hold on for now."

"By the way, brother-in-law, you haven't told me yet, what's the matter with coming here so late?"

"Huaiguo, do you remember that silly Zhu that your brother-in-law told you about a few days ago?"

"I know. What's wrong? Did he do something disgusting to my sister again?"

"No, but your sister is also a little disgusted. Now that he hasn't come back yet, I can go over and teach him a lesson today. Remember, don't use violence if you can, just scare him."

Then Chen Xiao brought Qin Huaiguo to wait outside the courtyard.

In order to avoid suspicion, Chen Xiao rode his bicycle directly home.

In fact, Sha Zhu is a pretty good person, and in the original novel, Sha Zhu's ending is quite miserable. He finally dies tragically in a bridge hole.

All this is because of Qin Huairu in the original novel, but Qin Huairu is now his wife.

So Chen Xiao must make Sha Zhu give up completely!

Don't let him have any illusions.

Qin Huaiguo squatted alone at the gate of the courtyard. After a while, a figure whistled and slowly walked towards him.

Qin Huaiguo stared at the black shadow with sharp eyes, then slowly stood up.

"Is your name Shazhu?"

Sha Zhu stopped and looked towards the source of the sound with a wary look on his face.

"Who are you? You don't sound like a resident of the compound."

"I'm Qin Huairu's younger brother!"

"I don't need to say anything else, right?"

As he spoke, Qin Huaiguo walked towards Sha Zhu step by step and grabbed his collar.

Then he showed a ferocious expression.

"What are you doing? Let me go quickly, or I'll call for help." Sha Zhu panicked.

Looking at Qin Huaiguo, who was even stronger than him, he felt a little scared.

After all, Qin Huaiguo used to dig coal in the coal mine, and he still has some ferocious muscles on his body.

"It's not impossible for me to let you go. This is my last warning to you."

"Stay away from my sister from now on. If she complains to me again, I'll beat you up!"

After saying that, Qin Huaiguo grabbed Sha Zhu by the collar and threw him out.

He threw Shazhu over and made him squat on the ground.

Then, Qin Huaiguo snorted coldly and disappeared into the night.

Qin Huaiguo disappeared for a long time before Sha Zhu swallowed and got up from the ground.

Then he ran home in a panic.
