Siheyuan: Traveling through Cai Quanwu, pretending to be Uncle Shazhu

Cai Quanwu paused for a moment when he said this. He felt that he needed to talk to the master, so he changed the subject:

"But, Master, I have been very busy these days, so I may not have any news so soon."

"You'll have to wait a few days."

"Come back to me next week and I'll get back to you."

The master was very happy to hear that Cai Quanwu agreed, but he didn't care about what Cai Quanwu said next.

No matter how anxious he is, he won't rush into these few days.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you, Xiao Cai."

"If this is really done, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

The master might be really anxious and even promised Cai Quanwu some benefits.

"Then Master, it's too polite for you to say that."

"I agreed to help you because you are a good person, Master."

"Master, if you say that again, I won't help you."

Cai Quanwu said pretending to be angry.

"Yes, yes. Look at me. I just can't speak."

"Xiao Cai, don't take it to heart."

The master saw that Cai was not angry and hurried to explain.

"Okay, Master, just go back and wait for my news." Cai Quanwu saw the master apologizing to him and comforted him.

"Okay, Xiao Cai, I'll leave first." The master said hello to Cai Quanwu, took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to Cai Quanwu and then left.

As soon as the master left, Cai Quanwu thought about having a chat with Jia Dongxu and Jia Zhang when he returned home in the evening.

Jia Zhang's conditions met the master's requirements very well.

I don’t know if Jia Zhang has that idea.

However, if Cai Quanwu used some words to package the master, Jia Zhang would probably be tempted.

……

On the way home from get off work, Xiao Wu sat on the back of his bicycle and asked Cai Quanwu, who was riding a bicycle in front of him, "Uncle, what did you and Director Ma do today?"

This is the question Xiao Wu wanted to ask during lunch.

It was only when he saw that Cai Quanwu was in a bad mood that he gave up the idea.

"I have something to do at the office." Cai responded to Xiao Wu without any ambiguity.

To be honest, Xiao Wu would probably agree with him transferring to the station and letting Guan Jiaqi work in the grain store.

"Oh." Seeing that Cai Quanwu was unwilling to say what happened specifically, Xiao Wu did not continue to ask.

After returning to the courtyard, after Xiao Wu got off the car, Cai Quanwu pushed his bicycle into the courtyard and nodded to the third uncle as usual.

After returning home, Cai Quanwu did not rush to Sha Zhu's house, but stayed at the door, smoking and waiting for Jia Dongxu.

After finishing a cigarette and waiting for a few minutes, Sha Zhu, the second uncle, and Jia Dongxu walked into the central courtyard together, talking and laughing.

When several people saw Cai Quanwu squatting at the door, they all greeted him.

After saying hello, everyone went home.

Working at a steel mill is much more tiring than working at a grain store, so no one is in the mood to chat.

After waiting for a while, Cai Quanwu walked towards Jia's house.

Anyway, it will take some time for Sha Zhu to cook, so now is a good time to go to Jia's house to test the waters.

Arriving at the door of Jia's house, Cai Quanwu asked politely, "Have you eaten?"

Then he walked into the house.

In the room, Jia Dongxu heard Cai Quanwu's words and hurried out to greet him.

"Uncle Cai, what's the matter?"

Jia Dongxu was very curious when he saw Cai Quanwu enter the room. When he came back just now, he greeted Cai Quanwu, but Cai Quanwu had no intention of looking for him at that time.

How come she came to his house to look for him after a while?

Moreover, whenever Cai Quanwu had something to ask him, he would always ask him to go out and rarely come into the house.

"Yes, there is something. Is your mother here?" Cai Quanwu answered with a smile.

"Yes, I'm playing with the kids in the back room."

Jia Dongxu said, and shouted to the inner room: "Mom, Uncle Cai is here, looking for you."

After calling out to Jia Zhang, Jia Dongxu brought Cai Quanwu to the dinner table and sat down.

After sitting down, Cai Quanwu looked around the room and said to Jia Dongxu with a smile:

“This house is a bit small.”

"When the stick grows bigger, it won't be big enough to live in."

Jia Dongxu was confused by Cai Quanwu's words. His house was small and everyone in the yard knew about it.

Just as I was thinking about how to reply, Jia Zhang came out, holding a stick and pulling aside the curtain.

Jia Zhang walked to the table and sat down, then said to Cai Quanwu unhappily, "What do you want from me?"

"I just want to ask you something to see if you guys have any idea."

Cai Quanwu did not speak directly, but kept the question in suspense.

"What's the matter?" Jia Zhang asked curiously.

She really couldn't understand what Cai Quanwu could want from her.

"What I want to say is something important concerning your family. Dongxu, where is your wife? Ask her to come out and listen."

Cai Quanwu did not answer Jia Zhang's question, but spoke to Jia Dongxu.

"I'm here, Uncle Cai." As soon as Cai Quanwu finished speaking, Qin Huairu also lifted the curtain from the inner room and walked out.

Cai Quanwu didn't say he was looking for her just now. Although she was curious, she didn't want to get up from her bed.

After hearing Cai Quanwu mention her, she got up and walked out.

After Qin Huairu came over and sat down, Cai Quanwu spoke:

"I heard a piece of news here, and I think it's a good opportunity for your family."

"That's why I came to ask you what you mean."

After hearing what Cai Quanwu said, Jia Zhang had a bad feeling. This Cai came and specifically asked her. She was very alert and immediately asked:

"what news?"

Looking at Jia Zhang's alert face, Cai Quanwu slowly told her about the master's desire to find a companion.

"When I was at work today, I heard a story from my colleague in the store."

"Next to the grain store where I work, there is an old man whose ancestors were royal relatives and whose family was well-off. But he lost his wife and children in the war a few years ago. Now he wants to find a companion."

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he knew what Cai Quanwu wanted to say, but he didn't say anything.

Jia Zhang's face immediately turned ugly, she stood up and cursed:

"Mr. Cai, what do you mean?"

"I thought you were here for no good, and it really is."

"I'm telling you, you've made a wrong calculation. Don't show off your little tricks in front of me."

Cai Quanwu looked at the angry Jia Zhang, then glanced at Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu beside him. Seeing that they looked calm, he knew that the two had discussed this matter before.

Then, he turned his gaze to Jia Zhang and said to her:

"Sister Jia, don't be angry yet, sit down and listen to what I have to say."

"I've finished speaking. If you don't have any ideas, I'll turn around and leave without saying anything."

When Jia Zhang heard what Cai Quanwu said, although her face was still unhappy, she was not as excited as before. She sat down, stared at Cai Quanwu, and said unkindly:

"Okay, I'd like to hear what you have to say."

Cai Quanwu saw Jia Zhang sitting down and continued:

"Sister Jia, your family can still survive on Dongxu's salary."

"But Dongxu's wife is pregnant with another baby, and Banggeng will grow up slowly."

"Let's not talk about anything else. In the future, if you have more children, this house will be inconvenient to live in."

"Not to mention that when you grow up, you'll have to get married."

When Jia Zhang heard this, she was about to open her mouth to refute, but was interrupted by Cai Quanwu:

"Mrs. Jia, do you mean that Dongxu can get a share of the house in the future?"
