Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

Chapter 47: The Thief Strikes Again

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Sha Zhu really didn't prepare any bowls and chopsticks for him.

Yi Zhonghai tried hard to take his eyes off the three lunch boxes before he mentioned the purpose of coming here in the evening.

"By the way, Zhuzi, what do you think of the girl I introduced to you last time? If you are interested, I will go to the factory tomorrow to talk to her father and ask you to settle the marriage as soon as possible."

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Sha Zhu's dead memory came back to life.

Thinking back to Liu Yuhua's burly figure, Sha Zhu couldn't help but shudder and said:

"Uncle, do I have a grudge against you or something? How dare you trick me like this?"

"Look at what you said. How can I, an old man, harm you?"

"Then why did you introduce me to a fat guy? My goodness, his arms look thicker than my legs. He looks like Zhu Bajie's second aunt. If the girl marries him, she will have nightmares at night."

Yi Zhonghai said unhappily:

"Look at what you are saying. Liu Yuhua's conditions are not bad. Both of her parents work, she has a city hukou and a job. Moreover, she has good character and knows how to make a living. Where can you find such conditions?

Listen to the advice of an old man, marry a virtuous woman, you can’t control a woman who is too beautiful. "

When Sha Zhu heard this, he was unhappy and said directly:

"Since the uncle said so, why don't you divorce the aunt and marry that fat girl yourself? Maybe you can give birth to a big fat boy next year."

Yi Zhonghai was almost angered by Sha Zhu's words. He was most concerned about the fact that he didn't have children, but Sha Zhu's words rubbed salt into his wounds.

"Since you are not satisfied, I will ask an aunt to find a matchmaker to introduce you to someone."

Yi Zhonghai finally endured it and spoke patiently.

Sha Zhu pouted and said, "Then you have to ask Auntie to talk to the matchmaker in advance. I don't want anyone who is not good-looking. It would be best if she has a city hukou and a formal job."

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he laughed. He pointed at Sha Zhu and said:

"You are here to choose a concubine. You don't know what your qualifications are. If there is a girl like this, she will be interested in you."

Yi Zhonghai felt that Sha Zhu was like a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.

Even Qin Huairu, whom Jia Dongxu married, also had a rural household registration.

If Qin Huairu had a city hukou, she probably wouldn't have looked down on Jia Dongxu. You know, Jia Dongxu's looks were still very good at that time.

In comparison, Shazhu can only be described as a mismatched creature.

But Sha Zhu had no self-awareness at all, and kept emphasizing that he occupied three main rooms by himself, and that as a chef he had no worries about food and drink.

Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand it anymore and thought that Sha Zhu should be allowed to face the reality after a few setbacks.

"Okay, Zhuzi, I'll be leaving now. Don't eat alone, share some of the food with the old lady."

Seeing that he had no share of the dishes, Yi Zhonghai decided to do them a free favor.

"Okay, I'll send it to the old lady right away."

Sha Zhu was indeed filial to the deaf old lady. He ate almost half of the two boxes of vegetables, took a steamed bun and walked to the backyard.

As soon as Shazhu left, Banggeng, who was hiding behind the window, sneaked out of the house.

Just now, when he heard Jia Zhang cursing Sha Zhu for not bringing food to her at home, he also knew that there was meat in Sha Zhu's lunch box.

Banggeng is five years old this year, which is the age when he only remembers food but not beatings.

He was just punished by Jia Dongxu for stealing a chicken two days ago. Now that the pain is gone, he starts to have evil thoughts again.

While Sha Zhu was away, he quickly ran into Sha Zhu's house and opened the lunch box.

When Bang Geng saw the fish and meat in the lunch box, his eyes widened.

This is meat! My family doesn't even have this much meat even though we eat it once a month.

Banggeng was very jealous. Why could that stupid fool eat so much meat by himself?

While cursing in his heart, his hands were not idle.

Without even looking for chopsticks, he simply stretched out his dirty hands, grabbed the piece of meat and put it into his mouth.

Because he was afraid of being discovered by Shazhu, Banggeng swallowed the meat in two bites.

Before I could swallow the meat, he grabbed another piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

In a short while, he ate up all the meat and vegetables in the lunch box.

Bang Geng was not satisfied with the meal yet, so he grabbed two pieces of fish with one hand and put them into his mouth.

At this moment, he only regretted that he was born with one more mouth to feed, as he didn't have enough time to eat so many delicious foods.

Just as Bang Geng was devouring his food, Sha Zhu's angry roar came from outside the house, "How dare you come to my house to steal things!!"

It turned out that Sha Zhu, who went to the backyard to deliver food, came back.

Shazhu got angry when he saw Banggeng coming to steal things again.

With new hatred and old grudges added to the mix, Sha Zhu just yelled and rushed over to teach Bang Geng a lesson.

Didn’t the deaf old lady say that day that as an elder it was his duty to educate the younger generation?

Banggeng was frightened by the shout. He looked up and saw Shazhu, who was so scared that he quickly swallowed the fish in his mouth and ran away.

As a result, because he swallowed too quickly, the fish bone got stuck in his throat.

Bang Geng didn't care about the fish bone in his throat and shouted at the top of his voice:

"Grandma! Mom! Help! Shazhu is going to hit me!"

Seeing that Bang Geng dared to complain, Sha Zhu got so angry that he picked up a broom and cursed:

"You little bastard, your master Zhu will definitely teach you a lesson today."

Bang Geng's barking alarmed the Jia and Yi families.

Jia Zhang was the first to rush out. Seeing Sha Zhu chasing after Bang Geng and beating him, she stopped him and scolded him:

"Silly! Why did you hit my Banggeng?"

When Banggeng saw Jia Zhang, he immediately hid behind her. Normally, whenever he got into trouble, he would be safe by hiding behind his grandmother.

Shazhu grabbed the broom and pointed at Banggeng and cursed:

"Aunt Jia, your son Bang Geng just came to my house to steal food again. Now I caught him red-handed, shouldn't I teach him a lesson?"

"Bullshit! My Jia family's grandson needs you, a fool, to teach him a lesson. If you dare to move, I will fight you to the death."

While the two were arguing, Jia Dongxu came out with Qin Huairu.

Yi Zhonghai also came out with them.

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai stepped forward to stop Sha Zhu and Xi Ni and said:

"Zhu Zi, why are you, an adult, angry with a child? Bang Geng is just hungry, so he will eat it. We adults don't need food."

After hearing this, Sha Zhu also got angry and said directly:

"Uncle! I haven't even touched the food yet, and it's already gone into that bastard's stomach. What are you going to let me eat tonight?"

On the other side, Jia Dongxu felt a little embarrassed, so he pulled the stick hiding behind Jia Zhang and slapped him hard on the butt.

Jia Dongxu didn't hold back, and he beat Banggeng so hard that he cried heartbreakingly. Jia Zhangshi, who was watching from the side, felt so distressed that she rushed over and hugged Banggeng to protect him in her arms to stop Jia Dongxu from beating him again.

Qin Huairu also felt sorry for the child, but she also knew that Banggeng was wrong, so she could only apologize to Shazhu while shedding tears.

Yi Zhonghai was dissatisfied when he saw this:

"I say, Zhuzi, you too. Banggeng is still a child. You have to make a fuss to this extent to be happy, right?"

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Sha Zhu was a little angry.

He threw the broom to the ground fiercely and cursed:

"So it's my fault that the things were stolen. I'm not as biased as you."

Having said that, Sha Zhu ignored the Jia family and Yi Zhonghai and went home with a straight face.
