Ever since I met Qin Huairu, I've been keeping track of their family's affairs. I originally thought I could make a good impression at the young man's engagement banquet!
I didn't expect to be given a chance to shine so soon!
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. The child's wedding is a big deal, and we absolutely cannot give money to delay things. Consider the money a loan, and you can pay it back whenever you have the chance!"
Sha Zhu donated all the wages he earned at the restaurant.
This sudden windfall stunned the three of them; they stared wide-eyed at the money in front of them, hesitant to accept it!
"What are you standing there for? Your child's wedding is the most important thing. Take this money first, and give it to me whenever you have it. Don't be so polite with me!"
Sha Zhu went straight up, grabbed Qin Huairu's hand, and stuffed his money into it.
Touching that soft skin felt like being electrocuted, and Sha Zhu felt that the money he spent was worthwhile!
Looking at the money in her hand, tears instantly streamed down Qin Huairu's face.
"Bang Geng! Kneel down to your uncle right now! If you hadn't lost, you wouldn't have been able to afford the bride price, let alone get married. From now on, tell him I'm your father, and you'd better be filial to me!"
Qin Huairu's words surprised the people in front of her.
Bang Geng was stunned by these words. How could this idiot Zhu be worthy of being his father? Although he had brought a lot of money, he still looked down on him.
Chapter 367 Nothing
Sha Zhu felt a warmth in his heart as he listened to Qin Huairu's words, as if he had been noticed and felt a warmth he had never experienced before.
If only Bang Geng could take care of me in my old age, that would be great. After all, I'm so old now, and it's not easy for me to have a son.
"Bang Geng, if you can take care of me in my old age, I'll give you all the money I earn!"
Shazhu said this jokingly while looking at Banggeng.
Qin Huairu understood immediately upon hearing this; it seemed this was a message being sent to her! It seemed that Sha Zhu wanted to be with her. When they were alone, she had to have a deeper conversation with him.
Although she is now old and no longer has the appetite to attract someone like Li Jianjun when she was young, she still has no problem with bachelors like Sha Zhu.
Seeing this scene, Jia Zhangshi was furious. It seemed that her daughter-in-law was still not being honest with her. She had been a widow all her life, and now that she was so old, she wanted to find another man. This was unacceptable!
"Consider this money a loan from our family. We'll pay you back when we have it, you brat. And don't ever come to our house again!"
Jia Zhangshi stepped forward and stood between Sha Zhu and Bang Geng, and immediately made a clean break.
This move embarrassed everyone present. Bang Geng never expected his grandmother to suddenly step forward and take the opportunity to stuff the money into his bag, so that Sha Zhu wouldn't regret it and want to go back later.
"mom!"
Qin Huairu cried out in disbelief. What else did this old lady want to do after delaying her for so many years? Did she want to stop her again this time?
For a moment, the group was at an impasse. Meanwhile, Tang Yanling, who was happily taking the gifts home, wanted to show them to her family.
"What's wrong, Mom and Dad? Did something happen to you?"
Tang Yanling looked at her parents and asked.
"What's bothering me? Look, Grandma Banggeng bought these for me, all of them!"
Then, Tang Yanling happily took out the jewelry, clothes, and some snacks she had bought from her bag.
Seeing their daughter so happy, the parents smiled too, without saying anything else.
A week passed quickly, and they went to discuss the engagement. Early in the morning, they brought some mountain produce, cigarettes, and alcohol with them.
"Brother and sister-in-law, you see, the matter of the two children is almost settled, and I've made all the preparations on my side. Let's discuss the engagement today!"
Qin Huairu looked at the two people in front of her and spoke, feeling very uneasy, afraid that they would make some other demands.
"Your family can accept the house and the bride price, so let's settle on this. I think that boy is quite nice, but he doesn't have a job. It would be even better if he had one!"
Tang's father began to indirectly make his own demands.
Qin Huairu was a smart woman, and she immediately understood the meaning behind the words.
"Don't worry, I've thought about this for a long time. We only have one son, and I can't let him be destitute!"
Qin Huairu looked at the two parents in front of her and answered them, but in her heart she was also worried. Who should she ask to find a job for her child?
The next morning, Qin Huairu went to the fresh food market and bought a lot of things. After all, it was an engagement banquet, and she couldn't make it too shabby since she was eating at home.
"Wow, why are you buying so many vegetables today? I see there's also a lot of pork. Did your family strike it rich?"
The three women stared wide-eyed at the pile of groceries the man had brought back, wishing they could snatch them away and examine them closely.
Although their son now runs a restaurant and earns a lot of money, the elderly couple have never benefited from it. They stared at the pork with wide eyes, their mouths watering.
"Today is my grandson's engagement banquet, so we have to prepare properly, otherwise how can we face everyone?"
As Jia Zhangshi looked at the person in front of her and stepped forward to speak, she directly blocked the Third Aunt's view with her body.
"Auntie, what are you saying? I'm nothing compared to you. Your family runs a restaurant, you've seen all sorts of good food, and you probably eat more leftovers than we do!"
Qin Huairu said in a sarcastic tone.
The old woman was instantly embarrassed, her face turning bright red with shame. Everyone in the courtyard knew that none of her sons were filial, so these words were undoubtedly a slap in her face.
After Qin Huairu finished preparing everything, she went straight to Sha Zhu and pulled him over.
Sha Zhu's cooking skills are superb. Although he has lost his sense of taste, his cooking is definitely better than his. If this were taken out, it would be very impressive.
"We don't know what the final product will be like today, so please bear with us!"
Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu in front of him, his eyes filled with tears. He was deeply moved. He hadn't expected that even now, when he still hadn't mustered the courage to go back into the kitchen, Qin Huairu would trust him so much.
"Just do it, Zhu Zi! I trust your skills!"
Qin Huairu patted Sha Zhu on the shoulder as she spoke.
In no time, the courtyard was filled with fragrance, and the aroma was indeed no less than before. Even Madam Jia was shocked by the smell and went up to look at Sha Zhu, thinking that he had regained his sense of taste.
"Shazhu, your sense of taste has returned?"
The stalker smelled the aroma and quickly ran over to ask, while secretly making plans.
If Shazhu regains his sense of taste, I'll definitely agree to his relationship with my mother, since Shazhu can earn a lot of money in the future.
"I've figured it out now. There's no use in talking. After all, I've been doing this for so many years, and my culinary skills are still there!"
Sha Zhu looked at the child in front of him and burst into laughter, then spoke, finally opening up the knot in his heart that had been there for him these past few days.
Before long, the entire Tang family came up, carrying a small gift, and began to scrutinize the family in front of them.
Qin Huairu quickly invited everyone to take their seats, and then served all the dishes on the table.
"Is this the only house you own? I looked around and didn't see any other houses?"
At this moment, Tang's mother spoke up and asked.
Qin Huairu was completely stunned when she heard this. She used to think that this family should live together, but what she heard meant that they wanted to get married and move out!
"Auntie, don't worry about that. From now on, it'll just be the two of us living in this house! My mom and grandma will move out."
Banggeng looked at his mother, who had a slight stutter, and fearing that he might accidentally reveal something, he quickly stepped forward to interrupt.
"I remember you said before that you had a new house prepared for us, but now it seems that there is no house at all?"
Chapter 368 An Encounter with a Tycoon
Tang's father's face was very gloomy when he said this.
Looking at the two people in front of him with their uncertain expressions, Sha Zhu became even more serious upon hearing these words, sensing that something was amiss.
"Don't worry, Sister Qin will move out and live with me from now on. We're both getting on in years, so we can look after each other."
Sha Zhu seized the opportunity to reveal his identity, because if he waited any longer, something might happen.
If Jia Zhangshi makes exorbitant demands, he'll be in big trouble!
Tang's father looked at the man in front of him with a disdainful expression, wondering what kind of family this was!
After learning about the current situation, Tang Yanling felt a great sense of disappointment. She had originally thought she was marrying into a very wealthy family, but she never expected to have nothing at all.
"Since your family doesn't even own a house, there's no point in saying all this now. You should have made that clear when you arranged the blind date!"
Tang's father immediately put down his chopsticks, grabbed the mother and daughter next to him, and the two of them stood up. After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
If they were to kick out the old man and the child because of their marriage, how would his daughter ever be able to live in this courtyard again?
Moreover, Qin Huairu is quite famous in this area, which makes me somewhat disdainful!
"Uncle, please don't go! It was indeed our family's fault in this matter. We shouldn't have lied!"
Bang Geng was filled with resentment. He glared at Sha Zhu next to him and then stood in front of Tang's parents.
"You two don't even have a house. If you're going to live there, then you two shouldn't contact each other anymore. Let's just leave it at that!"
As he spoke, Tang's father shoved the stick away.
When the three of them returned home, Tang Yanling was crying loudly beside them. They were already engaged, but they never expected to be separated because of this. She was very reluctant to part ways with him.
However, not having a house is something I really can't accept!
"The reason we brought you there today is because we heard some rumors the day before yesterday, so we went to confirm them!"
"Don't worry, I can find you an even better one later!"
Seeing their daughter's distressed state, the parents tried to comfort her.
However, Tang Yanling was so angry that she ran out of the house.
I wanted to find Bang Geng to get some answers, but as soon as I went in, I bumped into someone's arms.
"Why are you running so fast? Is something urgent?"
A man's magnetic voice slowly rang out.
Upon hearing that voice, Tang Yanling felt a tingling sensation all over her body, and her eyes instantly lit up.
Looking up, he saw a very mature-looking man in front of him, who looked no older than him.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to..."
However, before Tang Yanling could finish speaking, a car drove up and stopped in front of them.
"It's nothing, it's no big deal, don't worry about it."
