The Great Era of Siheyuan

The next morning, everyone gathered around the sink to wash up, but their eyes were always secretly looking at Sha Zhu who was leaning on a cane at the door, and they couldn't help but laugh.

Yesterday, Sha Zhu's blind date made him a complete joke. He scolded the girl as soon as they met, and then the girl kicked him and dislocated his knee.

No one felt sorry for him, and they all said behind his back that Sha Zhu was just Sha Zhu, and if he wasn't stupid, why was he called Sha Zhu. Regardless of whether the girl was his blind date or not, he shouldn't have said that to her, and he got himself into trouble for no reason, and he deserved it now.

Shazhu is very depressed now. He went to the hospital for a checkup yesterday. After the bone was adjusted, the doctor said that he should rest for at least one to three weeks and wait until the knee is reset before he can move. He should try not to use the injured leg normally. Otherwise, there may be sequelae that will affect his movements in the future.

"Zhu Zi, we'll be having breakfast soon, remember to call Yu Shui along! Don't blame your godfather, he's doing this for your own good. Who would have thought that girl would have such a bad temper!"

An old lady saw Sha Zhu standing at the door and thought he was in a bad mood, so she came over and comforted him.

"Auntie, I'm fine. I'm not blaming Uncle! I was just thinking about work. My leg is injured. What's going to happen to my job at the factory? I can't just take a month off, right?"

Sha Zhu said in frustration, it was all his fault for having such a stinky mouth, why did he provoke that woman for no reason!

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, the aunt could only comfort him.

"Zhu Zi, don't be anxious yet. Talk to your uncle later and see if there is any solution."

Sha Zhu nodded. This was the only way now.

He also knew the name of the girl from yesterday, Liu Yuhua, the same name as Li Wenqiang's wife. However, their looks and personalities were completely opposite, as if all the shortcomings were put on his blind date, who was short and fat, not only ugly, but also very irritable, which really left him speechless.

At this time, Yu Shui came out of the house. Seeing Sha Zhu talking to the aunt, he came over.

"Brother, Auntie, what are you talking about?"

Rain asked.

"Nothing, just your brother is worried about his work because of his leg injury. Go wash up first, godmother has cooked some porridge, drink some later."

An auntie explained.

"Thank you, godmother! Brother, don't think too much about it. Just heal your leg first! Put your work aside for now. The doctor said that you need to take good care of your leg now."

The rain advised.

Sha Zhu sighed helplessly.

"Fine!"

The family sat together eating breakfast, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

The old man blamed himself very much. This blind date was going to be a good one, but in the end, not only did he mess up the family-recognition party, but he also got his godson injured. He didn't know how to face Sha Zhu.

As Sha Zhu was eating, he thought of his blind date yesterday and felt very upset.

"Uncle, my leg is injured. What do you think I should do about my work? You heard what the doctor said yesterday. He said I can't move around for a few weeks."

Sha Zhu asked anxiously. He had already taken several days off this month. If he took another month off, he would only have a few dollars' salary next month.

The old man frowned and thought about it.

"Zhu Zi, how about this? I'll go to the factory and ask for a leave for you. You can have a good rest at home for a while, and let your godmother take care of you at home. The rest can be dealt with after I come back."

Sha Zhu felt that the old man's method was a last resort. Now that his leg was injured, this was the only other option.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you."

Sha Zhu was helpless. His leg had not been well since some time ago. First he encountered a gangster and his leg was fractured. Then he was attacked by Li Wenqiang again and again. Now his leg was dislocated by his blind date. These people are unlucky for him. He should be careful in the future.

Afterwards, the old man went to work in the factory. When Sha Zhu returned home, everyone in the yard had already gone about their own business.

Sha Zhu moved a stool to sit at the door to enjoy the cool air, feeling a little depressed. At this time, Qin Huairu came over with a smile.

"Silly Zhu, you have to take good care of your injured leg. Don't move around, otherwise it will affect your recovery. You are recuperating at home recently, right? If you need anything, just call me. I can't help you with other things, but I can still help you with washing clothes and mopping the floor at home."

Qin Huairu said with concern.

Sha Zhu didn't expect that Qin Huairu, whom he hadn't been close to for a long time, would care about him so much, and he became a little excited.

"Good morning, Sister Qin. I'm fine. I'm in good health. The doctor said that my injury will heal after some rest. But I still have to thank you!"

"Why are you being so polite to me?"

Qin Huairu looked at him with a sweet smile.

The plump and attractive figure and the charm of a young woman immediately fascinated Sha Zhu, and he couldn't say no.

"Then I thank you!"

After saying this, Sha Zhu started to smile foolishly.

"That's right. We are all so familiar with each other. If you have trouble today, I will help you. If I have trouble in the future, you will help me. Isn't that how neighbors behave? Sit here first. I will help you clean up the house. You are a grown man, but you don't have a caring person at home to take care of you. I will help you clean up!"

Qin Huairu said this and went in with a smile.

"Hey~ How can I be so embarrassed, Sister Qin, the house is too messy, you take a rest, I'll ask her to clean it up when the rain comes back, don't tire yourself out!"

Shazhu was smiling at the door so hard that your back teeth were visible, and your face was full of wrinkles.

"It's okay, I'm used to it, it will be fine in a while!"

Qin Huairu replied casually, and then began to clean up for him quickly, as if she was completely unaware of the dirt and stench in the room.

What's going on with Sister Qin today? Could it be that she has changed her mind and wants to be with me?

Sha Zhu sat at the door, looking at Qin Huairu who was busy in the house, making random guesses in his mind.

When Qin Huairu was out of Sha Zhu's sight, the smile on her face slowly faded.

Since her husband died and her mother-in-law remarried, things have been happening one after another, leaving her no time to rest. In the past few days, she has been looking for ways to buy food besides taking care of the children at home. Unfortunately, the high prices of food outside and the scarcity of food coupons have left her helpless.

Although there are still dozens of kilograms of grains and rice and noodles at home, we can't just eat rice without vegetables, right? Two or three taels of vegetables a day are not enough for Bang Geng to eat.

Now there are only a few hundred yuan left in the family, and she doesn’t know how long the disaster will last. If it continues like this, she doesn’t know how long she can hold on.

Sha Zhu brought back so many dishes yesterday, and she saw them all. If Sha Zhu could help, her family wouldn't have to worry about food anymore.

Whether for the sake of her child or herself, Qin Huairu had to make changes. It just so happened that Sha Zhu was injured yesterday, so she found an opportunity to come here early this morning.

Sha Zhu was still feeling complacent, completely unaware of the deeper meaning behind Qin Huairu's help to him.
