Qin Jingru couldn't guess what Jia Zhang was thinking.

"Do you think Lin Fan is very generous? He will give it to you if you ask for it. You are so naive. He will not even pay any attention to you. He will even slap you in the face if he gets angry. His hand is really strong!"

"Besides, what's stealing? It's taking. We are all neighbors. Is it necessary to be so clear?"

Jia Zhang became furious. There was no one in the Jia family who stole anything. They just took it.

"Of course. Even in the countryside, we always tell our neighbors in advance if we take their things, otherwise it will be considered stealing!"

After Qin Jingru finished speaking, she looked at Jia Zhang with disdain. Wasn't it normal for her to be caught stealing? Why was she still so self-righteous?

"What's that look in your eyes? You are just a country girl with no knowledge. How can the city be the same as your country? We are neighbors in the courtyards. Usually, we take things from each other and no one cares!"

Jia Zhang was angered by Qin Jingru's eyes and spoke more impolitely.

Qin Jingru felt disdainful in her heart, but she did not argue with Jia Zhang anymore. After all, if she angered Jia Zhang, who knew if she would get so angry that she would drive her back to the countryside. Her goal had not been achieved yet, so she could not leave now.

Lin Fan and Fang Meng hurried to the steel mill and then returned to their respective posts.

"Lin Fan, why did you come so late today?"

After Lin Fan returned to work, his father-in-law Fang Dahai came over and asked.

"Ahem, I got up late today!"

Lin Fan couldn't tell his father-in-law that his daughter and I were fooling around early in the morning, so he could only say that he got up late.

"Young man, early to bed and early to rise is good for your health!"

Fang Dahai said something meaningful to Lin Fan, then buried his head in his work.

Lin Fan smiled awkwardly. It seemed that his father-in-law had noticed something.

"Lin Fan, are you reluctant to let go of your beloved wife?"

The worker next to him suddenly started teasing Lin Fan.

"Yes, this beautiful wife is so charming that one can't help but linger!"

Another worker echoed.

"You are all right, but I am proud of having a good wife. Do you have one? Old Li, your wife is like a tigress. Her voice is terrifying. And Old Wang, your wife looks like a female demon. I am afraid you run away from home every morning, right?"

These two shameless old men even dared to make fun of me. I, Lin Fan, was not willing to be outdone and ridiculed them.

The two workers were silent because Lin Fan's words directly touched their souls.

If there is a shrew at home, they will not be motivated after get off work every day, but will be very motivated when going to work.

"Lin Fan, your words really hurt my heart. Fortunately, I am not married, otherwise I would be hurt by you too!"

Another worker named Zhang patted his chest and rejoiced.

"You are over 30 and still not married, and you are still proud. Are you worthy of your parents and your unborn child?"

Lin Fan turned into a sharp-tongued shrew, and every word she said was heart-wrenching.

"You said I was sorry for my parents, then I can bear it, but you said I was sorry for my unborn child, what kind of logic is that?"

The worker named Zhang felt helpless. Did he want to remain single? Who wouldn’t want to get married?

"If you get married earlier, the child will be born sooner, right? If you don't get married, when will you have a child?"

Lin Fan said with a smile.

"You're still talking about me. You and Fang Meng have been married for a few months, right? Why is there still no movement?"

"We are newlyweds and don't want to have children so early. Let's wait until next year to have children!"

Speaking of this, Lin Fan looked at Fang Dahai who was staring at him and felt a little helpless, so he directly told him his plan.

"Really, Lin Fan, are you planning to have a baby next year?"

Fang Dahai was extremely happy. After all, they had talked about this before. But at that time Lin Fan said that he didn't want children for the time being, and he thought he wouldn't be able to see his grandson for several years.

I didn't expect that Lin Fan said now that he plans to have a child next year. Doesn't that mean I can have a grandson the year after next?

"Yes, Xiao Meng will be 20 next year, so it would be great to have a child!"

Lin Fan nodded. The main reason was that Fang Meng wanted to have a child. For a person like Lin Fan in later generations, he wished he could have a child after he was in his thirties. He would enjoy himself enough first and then consider the issue of having children.

"That's great. Your mom always talks about it. I know you young people are wild and love to enjoy life, and you're afraid that having a child will be too tiring. But your mom and I are both people who can't sit still. If you don't want to take care of the baby, we can help you. It doesn't matter how many children you have!"

Fang Dahai said excitedly.

Lin Fan felt helpless. How many children should he have? One was enough. It would be too annoying to have too many children.

"Okay, I'll let you and my mom take care of it then. Just don't be bothered by it!"

Lin Fan could only smile and say.

Chapter 289 The bottom line gradually falls

"No, how could I be annoying? Just keep giving birth, and if I complain to your mom in the future, you can slap me in the face!"

Fang Dahai said seriously.

"Hey, hey, don't say that. How dare I hit you? That's too much!"

Lin Fan felt helpless. Why was his father-in-law becoming more and more exaggerated?

"Lin Fan, look how anxious you are for your father-in-law. You can say anything."

"Can't you see this? Old Fang must have talked to Lin Fan before about letting him and Fang Meng have a baby, but Lin Fan refused. That's why Old Fang is so excited now that he heard Lin Fan change his mind!"

Seeing the opportunity to fight back, the workers immediately started teasing Lin Fan.

"What's the big deal? I'm only 20 years old and Meng'er isn't even 19 yet. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Lin Fan shook his head helplessly, not understanding their views.

"Children are a big deal. Why do people get married? It's just to carry on the family line!"

The workers began to brainwash Lin Fan.

Lin Fan turned a deaf ear to everyone's words and just focused on making parts.

"Lin Fan, when will Jia Zhang come to work? If she doesn't come, I will have to move the steel by myself!"

Seeing that Lin Fan didn't want to listen, the coworkers didn't say anything more and instead asked about Jia Zhang.

"Don't you know her? She's lazy whenever she can, and she never stands up when she can lie down. The infirmary has issued her a medical record. Do you think she will come back before she uses up her seven-day sick leave?"

"Not having a job is very happy, but not having money is not happy!"

Lao Zhang shook his head. No one wants to work, but how can we make money without working? The whole family will starve to death.

"Have you forgotten that He Daqing gave her one month's salary as compensation? That was forty-five yuan!"

Old Li was a smart man. He thought of the money that the unjust victim He Daqing had paid to Jia Zhang.

The other workers were silent. Forty-five yuan a month was almost the salary of a fourth-level fitter. Among them, there were many second- and third-level fitters who earned far less than forty-five yuan a month.

What was He Daqing, the victim, doing at this moment? He was scolding Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu, the idiot, had been absent-minded all day. He couldn't wash the vegetables cleanly, didn't cut them evenly, and wasn't as good at cooking as Ma Hua and Fatty. This really pissed He Daqing off.

"What are you doing? Have you lost your soul? Do you want me to help you shout?"

He Daqing looked at Sha Zhu with disappointment. This guy has become like this since he was rejected by Qin Jingru yesterday. It seems that the blind date has broken him down.

A grown man gives up on himself just because he failed in a few blind dates. Isn't this useless?

He Daqing secretly decided to put the matter of having another child on the agenda. After all, the old one was obviously useless and could not be saved. It would be better to have a younger one as soon as possible and raise him again.

Originally, he was a little worried about Sha Zhu's mood when he wanted to have a child. Now it seems that if Sha Zhu is in a bad mood, he will just have to send him away, since they can't have the child anyway.

"Hey, Dad, do you think I'm useless? Why is it so difficult for me to find a wife? Why can't I succeed?"

Sha Zhu sighed and said helplessly.

"Don't be afraid. I still have a trick that will ensure you find a wife, but I don't really want to go that far."

He Daqing also sighed when he heard this, and then comforted Sha Zhu.

"What can we do? Dad, just tell me. Can the situation get any worse than it is now?"

"Find a widow with a child. Since the older girl cares about the child, then find someone who doesn't care about the child. A widow has lower requirements, and since she has her own child, it doesn't matter if she can have another child in the future. As long as they can live a married life, that's fine."

"That's a good idea. Just find someone like Sister Qin!"

Sha Zhu's eyes lit up. Yes, why didn't he think of it? Qin Jingru was still a virgin, and of course she would want her own child in the future.

But widows like Sister Qin are not only mature and charming, but they also have children of their own. Instead, they are unwilling to have more children because they are worried that the newborn children will take away the love and care that belongs to the original children.

"You're dreaming. Forget about having three children like Qin Huairu. You're being taken advantage of by raising three children for others. I only allow you to find a widow with one child. The younger the better. It's best if the child is still breastfeeding. In this way, you can raise him from childhood. He is like your own son, and he can be your son and take care of you in your old age."

"But a child as old as Bang Geng has his own ideas and is at the rebellious age. If you raise him, not only will he not remember your kindness, but he will even go against you!"

He Daqing hopes that Sha Zhu will find a widow with a baby, because this will kill two birds with one stone, he can have a wife and children in one go, and start living a happy and fulfilling life with his wife and children.

Sha Zhu nodded, thinking that what He Daqing said was right. It was too difficult to get along with a child of Banggeng's age. The child was far easier to coax than a breastfeeding baby.

In this way, Sha Zhu's choice of spouse has dropped from a young, beautiful and educated city girl to a gentle, considerate and family-oriented country girl, and now to a widow with a baby, and he has lost his bottom line step by step.

"The blind date failed again?"

Now that the blind date had hope, Sha Zhu regained his spirit and devoted himself to his work.

Liu Lan approached him quietly and asked curiously.

"If you don't know how to talk, don't talk. Don't bring up anything that is not relevant!"

Sha Zhu glared at Liu Lan. Don't hit people in the face, and don't expose people's shortcomings when scolding them. Liu Lan was both exposing their shortcomings and slapping them in the face.

"Let me introduce you to someone like that. She's the kind of widow your father mentioned who's still breastfeeding."

Liu Lan said mysteriously.

"Really? How about you bring her to my house for a blind date?"

"Didn't you tell me not to speak if I can't speak? It seems like I suddenly can't speak anymore!"

Liu Lan said proudly.

"Liu Lan, I was wrong. You are a magnanimous person. Don't bother with me. Tell me the details!"

"She is my cousin, her name is Li Yan. The man in her family fell ill and died after spending all the money. Now not only is the family penniless, but there is also a hungry child. Although I can help her a little, it is just a drop in the bucket. It would be more practical for her to remarry a man. Are you interested?
