Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

Seeing the toilet next to the door, I thought, 'It would be better if it were always there, so I could empty it all the time!'

Pulling up the white cloth covering her mouth, Granny Jia quickly stepped forward.

As soon as she got close, the pungent smell made her expression change drastically.

Hold your breath and lift yourself up by the handle...

Clang.

Granny Jia couldn't lift it; the toilet, which was only a few inches off the ground, fell back down.

"This bastard is hauling bricks, it's so heavy!" Granny Jia muttered under her breath.

I tried lifting it again, but it still didn't budge.

Her expression changed, and Granny Jia placed both of her hands on it.

With a strong pull, it came up.

"Oh my, isn't this Aunt Zhang?"

"Thank you for your hard work."

Xu Damao stood at the door with a mocking expression, holding a jar and a toothbrush, making sarcastic remarks.

Granny Jia was carrying the chamber pot in both hands and had no time to pay attention to him.

Holding my breath, I finally lifted the toilet.

If you start talking, you'll spill everything.

Upon seeing this, Xu Damao became even more enthusiastic: "Slow down, watch your step, watch your step."

"Clean it up properly, or I'll have to go see Director Wang."

Watching Jia Zhangshi stagger out of the doorway, Xu Damao grinned and cursed, "You old thing, you'll be exhausted to death."

Xu Damao still harbored resentment in his heart!

I wonder when the marks on his face will disappear.

Xu Damao blamed Yu Haitang's lukewarm attitude on this.

If it weren't for his face being scratched so badly, he would still be so charming.

Would Yu Haitang treat him like that?

The young widow in that commune was looked down upon by everyone.

He took them all down in no time, so Yu Haitang should have been under his control long ago.

But look, she didn't even touch it with her little hands.

It's all that old hag's fault; if it weren't for her, she would have gotten herself into this state.

"Now it's my turn to get married, you know that?"

Xu Damao was shouting through the wall, his voice low.

The fact that Shazhu was getting married made him feel uneasy.

Why?

That silly Zhu... well, he actually got married before Xu Damao.

They found a teacher, and she was incredibly good-looking.

Although she was a little less charming than Yu Haitang, she was still a beauty.

That stupid guy who can only cook, does he even deserve a wife like that?

The more Xu Damao thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

He's just a fool, he deserves to be a bachelor his whole life, he deserves to never find a wife.

No, I need to think of something...

Xu Damao was so engrossed in his work that he became completely absorbed.

Even when Granny Jia came back and started cursing and grumbling, he didn't pay any attention.

After quickly preparing some food, Xu Damao walked out, lost in thought.

Why don't we go to the school and confront Teacher Ran, tell her about Sha Zhu, and ruin this whole thing?

But Xu Damao was unwilling to let go of Aunt Liu's side.

What if she introduces someone even better than Yu Haitang to me?

If she finds out that she was the one who dismantled Sha Zhu, wouldn't that cause trouble?

That's right, he was thinking about both this and that.

He doesn't want to waste any more time on any of them, so can't we look at a few more, pick and choose?

As Xu Damao walked out of the courtyard gate, he saw Sha Zhu.

The simpleton was seen slowly swaying forward, holding a kitchen knife in one hand.

Curious, Xu Damao called out, "Zhu Zi, what are you doing holding a kitchen knife?"

The silly man walking ahead turned around and saw that it was Xu Damao.

Happy!

I thought to myself, 'I've been waiting for you here,' and sure enough, you came.

He glanced down at the kitchen knife in his hand and chuckled, "You mean this knife? I was planning to take it to the factory to be sharpened... sharpened."

Sha Zhu turned the blade back and forth, muttering to himself.

"This knife is a bit dull. If I run into someone who doesn't know what's going on, I don't know if I can just stab them in the neck."

Xu Damao felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this, and like a turtle, he shrank back...

"Zhu Zi, this is no joke, are you out of your mind?" Xu Damao stood rooted to the spot, too afraid to move.

He felt that this silly guy in front of him had seen right through his thoughts.

His gleaming blade was aimed at himself, wasn't it?

Seeing his expression, Sha Zhu knew he had guessed correctly.

That Xu Damao is up to no good!

Sha Zhu chuckled, lifted the blade, and scraped it with his thumb: "That depends on the situation."

"Anyone who tries to stop me from getting married will ruin my good time." He glared at them.

Sha Zhu smiled strangely: "Giving him a... knife is too lenient."

Xu Damao stood there, too afraid to move, and Sha Zhu didn't leave either, just standing there holding a kitchen knife and staring at him.

"What are you two doing blocking this place?" Yang Jianguo asked, pushing his cart and chatting and laughing with Yingzi as they came out.

Xu Damao glanced at him twice, then remained silent. "Can I even be considered your equal?"

Sha Zhu put away his knife, tucked it behind his back, and laughed, "Nothing much, just chatting for a bit."

As they were talking, Xu Damao, who had seen him put away his knife, walked past him close to the wall.

After running a couple of steps, he turned back to look at Sha Zhu.

He was standing there, grinning at me with a broad smile.

Xu Damao wanted to say something harsh, but then he looked at the kitchen knife on his back.

Fine, I'm not going to argue with this uncultured idiot.

That's crazy!

Push the cart to Sha Zhu and watch him chuckle as he gazes at Xu Damao's retreating figure.

After glancing at the kitchen knife behind him, Yang Jianguo guessed what had happened.

However, Sha Zhu actually had this kind of insight.

Did they know to threaten Xu Damao in advance to prevent him from doing something bad?

Okay!

After being praised by Yang Jianguo, Sha Zhu scratched his head and said, "Actually, it was the old lady who reminded me."

Deaf old lady, it seems that the meal we shared during the Lunar New Year wasn't a waste of time.

After saying something to him, Yang Jianguo and Yingzi got on their bikes and rode away.

Looking at the steel frame attached to his back seat, Sha Zhu muttered curiously, "What is Jianguo up to now...?"

After dropping off his wife, Yang Jianguo paced back and forth in front of the door.

The woman standing at the factory gate couldn't help but laugh and call out, "Oh dear, it's been so many days, and you're still not done sticking together?"

"He's always loitering around the gate. If you didn't know better, you'd think there was gold right there at the factory gate!"

Yang Jianguo blushed when teased like that.

However, we can't afford to lose in terms of momentum.

"It's only been a few days, how could that be enough? Even sticking together 24 hours a day wouldn't be enough."

Yingzi leaned against the station entrance, feeling both amused and exasperated.

The laughter of the older woman behind her made her blush.

This afternoon, she'll be the butt of jokes again, this time directed at her by a group of older women.

Yingzi's thinking was absolutely correct.

After finishing work at noon, she went to the canteen for lunch, where a group of older women surrounded and intercepted her.

The older woman in front of me asked, "What have you two been doing all day? Have you not been going out at all?"

The older woman behind her kept asking, "Yingzi, your man isn't just bullying you when he's in the house, is he?"

Yingzi blushed and retorted, "My man is busy! He's at home reading and studying, he doesn't have time..."

"Reading books and studying? I don't believe it!" the older sister joked with a smile, though she was genuinely envious.

In this food factory, who is doing better than Yingzi?

A daughter, the family is very busy and dotes on her.

She got married and became a wife.

The man cherishes her more and tries every way to pamper her.

Look at these Forever brand bicycles, you can't find another one like them in the whole factory.

Hey~

No.

Besides, everything Yingzi wore and wore cost several yuan.

Life is getting better and better; even the young women in the factory have higher standards when it comes to choosing a partner.

Even if someone isn't as good as Yingzi, at least she should be a wife who knows how to cherish her, and they should be about the same in appearance and salary.

No need to complain about making do anymore, it's alright!

The girl rejected him without even meeting him, making things difficult for the matchmaker.

These young girls, they're so young, why do they look so arrogant?

The kind of guy you're asking for, would he even be interested in someone like you?

Don't you really have any idea what your own situation is?

Chapter 147 Yu Haitang's Imaginary Exploration Is Unacceptable

At the steel rolling mill, finish the work at hand.

Yang Jianguo shouted, "Zhang Chao, bring me that shelf I left by the door."

"Here it is, Master." Zhang Chao ran to fetch the items.
