Chapter 122 The Barber's Stick: A Hot Topic

The next morning, Yu Haitang finally woke up from her sleep, stretched, and found herself at home, which was very strange.

"Didn't I have dinner at my sister's house last night? How did I end up at home?"

She sat up groggily, rubbing her neck; she hadn't slept well all night.

Moreover, as soon as I woke up, I could smell a strong odor of alcohol.

Then I remembered that I only had a small glass of wine at my sister's house yesterday, and I got this drunk.

She vaguely remembered that someone had brought her back, but she couldn't remember who it was.

Yu Haitang's mother came over, grumbling.

"You brat, you're finally awake. Tell me honestly, what's your relationship with Li Jianjun, the guy who brought you home last night?"

Yu Haitang's parents are still unsure about the exact relationship between Yu Haitang and Li Jianjun.

The neighbors were all talking about it, saying that Li Jianjun was Yu Haitang's boyfriend.

Yu Haitang was completely bewildered.

"Li Jianjun? What does that mean?"

Yu Haitang got completely drunk yesterday and doesn't remember anything after that.

Li Tiemei, Yu Haitang's mother, tapped her forehead.

“That brat is still keeping it from us. Li Jianjun, the deputy head of the security department at Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, brought you here yesterday.”

"You were so drunk, and a man brought you back. Is he your boyfriend or something?"

Yu Haitang's head buzzed, and it suddenly started ringing.

Why was it Li Jianjun who brought her back?

She has no memory of it at all.

"Mom isn't what you think."

Although Haitang wanted to admit that she was dating Li Jianjun, she was still very enthusiastic about it.

Li Jianjun hasn't agreed yet.

Li Tiemei was immediately displeased.

"Haitang, you're in high school now, you know there's a difference between boys and girls. What kind of behavior is it for a girl to be out drunk?"

"Everyone in the neighborhood knows now, and you're telling me it's not what I imagined?"

"So what exactly is it? Is it that he's interested in you, but you haven't agreed yet?"

In Li Tiemei and Yu Jun's memory, there was a long line of men who wanted to pursue their daughter.

Normally, Yu Haitang is the one who picks and chooses others, so it's only natural that others would take a liking to her this time.

Who knew that Yu Haitang would say something so surprising.

"Mom, please don't say that. This time, it's me who has taken a liking to Li Jianjun."

Li Tiemei felt like the sun had risen in the west.

"Haitang, you're not talking nonsense, are you?"

Yu Haitang knew that her mother wouldn't believe anything she said, and she was so annoyed that she started yelling.

"Mom, I'm annoyed enough already, you can go out."

While Li Tiemei felt surprised, Yu Haitang did not answer her questions, and she left Yu Haitang's room with complicated feelings.

After Li Tiemei left, Yu Haitang felt confused and disoriented.

Why was it Li Jianjun who brought him back? And why did my sister agree to it?

Yu Haitang felt hungry and got up to find something to eat.

Li Tiemei didn't indulge him; she didn't make her own breakfast when she made breakfast in the morning.

Luckily it was Sunday, otherwise Yu Haitang would have gone to work on an empty stomach.

It is said that Li Tiemei never spoiled her three children at home.

In other families, the second child is usually the least favored, but in their family, the second child, Yu Haitang, is the most beautiful and successful among the three children, and is very much loved by her parents.

Even so, the elderly couple did not spoil the child.

After Yu Haitang got up, she boiled some white eggs and ate them, and then found a 3-piece steamed bun.

Their family is also well-off.

After finishing his meal, Yu Haitang thought he should go to the restroom. As soon as he stepped out of his house, people in the alley swarmed around him, chattering and asking him questions.

"Begonia, the guy I gave you yesterday, your boyfriend, is really good-looking, and he's a deputy section chief."

"From now on, you'll be living a good life with them, so don't forget about us good neighbors when that happens."

"Yes, yes, we've watched you grow up since you were little. You used to let me hold you all the time. If you become successful in the future, don't forget your old man."

Listening to everyone's chatter, Yu Haitang's eyes widened, unsure how to respond.

She really wanted to find a place to crawl into. There wasn't even a hint of anything going on between her and Li Jianjun yet, but the neighbors were already saying they were dating.

What if one day it gets out and becomes a laughing stock? That would be truly embarrassing.

Yu Haitang felt increasingly ashamed. This wouldn't do; she had to quickly come up with a way to make this relationship a reality.

This way, she wouldn't feel so awkward when her neighbors started discussing it.

Fortunately, he and Li Jianjun worked in the same factory, so they saw each other all the time. If they had known that the opportunity was right next to each other, it would have been too easy.

Even Haitang herself didn't realize that she wanted to pursue Li Jianjun.

……

at the same time.

At Sha Zhu's house, the deaf old lady was chatting enthusiastically with Sha Zhu.

After today's fight, Jia Zhangshi went back to her own home, and Sha Zhu's house became much quieter.

Besides, the old lady was quite angry, so Sha Zhu had to try to comfort her.

"Grandma, there's no need for you to get angry with that person who's pretending to be you. How about this, I'll take the household registration book tomorrow and go get a divorce from him."

Grandma Long held Sha Zhu's hand and asked him a question.

"You still haven't gotten your hands on Jia Dongxu's compensation?"

Sha Zhu didn't not want Jia Dongxu's compensation; it's just that he was carefree, spent money a lot, and was too lazy to bother with such things.

Judging from Sha Zhu's expression, the old lady knew that the matter had not yet been resolved.

"You're just too soft-hearted. In reality, Zhang's daughter has more than just Jia Dongxu's pension in her secret stash."

"Over the years, when Old Jia was alive, Jia Zhangshi was in charge of the household, and all the money earned went into Jia Zhangshi's pocket."

"When Lao Jia died, the factory even gave him a pension. Including when Jia Dongxu died, it didn't cost much money."

"I estimate that Jia Zhangshi still has at least six or seven hundred yuan in her hands."

“You silly boy, you have to get this money in your hands first before you divorce this old woman.”

The deaf old lady's words left Sha Zhu stunned, and he thought to himself that old foxes are indeed wiser.

I'm still a bit too young.

Six or seven hundred yuan—what that means in this era? Sha Zhu knew perfectly well.

“Grandma, you’re right. At the very least, I need to get the money before I talk to Jia Zhangshi about the divorce.”

The deaf old lady beamed with joy as she watched Sha Zhu being so obedient.

If we get our hands on Jia Zhangshi's money, won't Sha Zhu have to give it to us as a gift?

This old woman is cunning and scheming; all she wants to do is extort money from others.

It's a pity that Sha Zhu was still so naive, thinking that the deaf old lady was thinking of him.

After that matter was resolved, the deaf old lady brought up another issue.

“Zhu Zi, once you’ve got the money and divorced Jia Zhangshi, you’d better find a country girl. Look at Qin Huairu, she’s pretty good.”

"It's a pity she's already married and has children. Now there's the most suitable candidate, Qin Jingru."

Chapter 123 Qin Jingru is here

These days, Qin Jingru is staying in the compound, and the deaf old lady is also observing his every move.

This rural girl is somewhat vain and materialistic.

However, she comes from the countryside, is hardworking and can endure hardship all year round, and most importantly, she will definitely be grateful after we marry her into the city.

This kind of girl, just like Qin Huairu, will be able to manage both her family and career well in the future, and she will be easy to control.

"If you were to marry a city girl, with your personality, you probably wouldn't be able to control her."

"And most importantly, now Rainwater is your only companion. If you marry a city woman, she might not be able to tolerate Rainwater."

The old lady was very considerate of Sha Zhu. In fact, logically speaking, if Sha Zhu had married Qin Jingru, he could have lived a relatively happy life.

However, Qin Jingru is also a person with a strong desire for control, so it's uncertain who will control whom in the end.

But the old lady's plan was that as long as Sha Zhu married Qin Jingru, she wouldn't have to pay so much dowry.

Rural girls are generally content, unlike city girls who are demanding and want to drain their husband's family dry.

As long as Sha Zhu saves the bride price money, he'll still have to support himself in the future, so no matter how you look at it, he'll benefit.

Sha Zhu thought the old lady was right.

"Yes, yes, you're absolutely right, Grandma. Qin Jingru is indeed a very good match."

"But there's still this problem, Grandma, it seems that Qin Jingru has taken a liking to Li Jianjun."

"I'm not as handsome as Li Jianjun now, and my position isn't as high as his either."
