Siheyuan: Full of Love

Chapter 3: Retirement Plan

"Okay, it's almost time. That's basically all we have for today. Let's all go."

After saying that, Yi Zhonghai dragged Sha Zhu towards his house.

"Hmph! Old Yi, let's see who has better means this time!" Liu Haizhong stroked his fat belly and looked at the backs of the two men.

People all scattered like birds and beasts!

"Dongxu, you bastard! You wanted to ruin your mother's show just now, didn't you? Get back home!" Jia Zhang said viciously.

Jia Dongxu shrank his neck: "Mom! I was wrong!"

"You little bastard, get out of here! I'll go home soon!" Jia Zhang refused to give in.

"It's just right to use He Daqing's work position to help us, an orphan and a widow." Jia Zhang thought to herself while cursing Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu was so scared that he ran back to his room.

Zhang Dazhuang took a deep look at Jia Zhang and walked back slowly.

"Da Zhuang! Aren't you a loader? Do you have any ideas about Sha Zhu's position?" Xu Damao came up to him again in a mean manner.

"Um, Brother Damao, Uncle He also works in a steel mill, and I will also work in a steel mill in the future, isn't it the same?"

"Don't call me Da Zhuang anymore, just call me Da Sha."

Xu Damao said with disdain: "You are a hard worker, and he is a cook! How can it be the same?"

"You work so hard in this job, and it's hard to say whether you can have enough to eat. But their job is so comfortable! Even in times of disaster, the cooks will not starve to death. Don't you know that?"

Huh? They all said Xu Damao was a nobody since he was little, but I didn't expect that he really is a nobody when he grows up!

"Brother Damao, I think my job is pretty good and it's very satisfying!" Zhang Dazhuang replied honestly.

Zhang Dasha! Very pure, personally tested by Damao, no deception!

"His father, Jie Chengye...should we..." The third aunt poked the third uncle.

"Let's talk about it when we get back!" Yan Bugui's narrowed eyes were shining with brilliance.

Yi Zhonghai's home

"Zhu Zi, your uncle and aunt have always been nice to you and Yu Shui, right?" Yi Zhonghai said with a smile while pulling Sha Zhu's arm.

"Of course! Uncle, you and Auntie are good people in this compound." Sha Zhu said perfunctorily.

He Daqing's sudden departure left me without a backbone and my mind was in a mess.

"How about this, Zhuzi, Yushui is in primary school now, so from now on, you can just bring Yushui to Uncle's house to eat after school."

"Thank you, uncle!" Sha Zhu said gratefully.

These days, no one would host meals for others, mainly because there was no surplus food.

The aunt listened to what her boss said without thinking too much, and just said: "When the rain comes back, bring her over for dinner, and save it for the two of you..."

Ahem! Yi Zhonghai coughed, interrupting the old lady.

"Zhu Zi, there is something else I want to discuss with you." Yi Zhonghai suddenly became very serious.

"Uncle, you tell me, since you and aunt are so generous, I will agree to everything that can be done and cannot be done." Sha Zhu patted his chest with a red face.

"Okay, Zhuzi! Since Dazhuang just mentioned the matter of you taking over my position, I think you should give up this position!" Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath.

"What? Give up the job?" Shazhu was stunned.

People called him Shazhu, but he was not really stupid. He could still tell the difference between the important and the unimportant. His face turned red and he couldn't utter a word.

He patted his chest to make promises one second, and got slapped in the face the next.

Yi Zhonghai saw the silly Zhu's look and said quickly: "Zhuzi, I'm not asking you to give up your position for nothing. You will be paid. When the time comes, you will have more space when you get married and have children!"

The old lady was stunned and looked at Yi Zhonghai in confusion. Why did he want a job for no reason?

Without waiting for Sha Zhu to speak, Yi Zhonghai said, "Zhu Zi, think about it yourself. Now that your father is gone, everything will depend on you."

"You need money to buy things, marry a wife, and pay for your education. Besides, you are a good cook. After you sell your job, you can still make a living. It's like killing two birds with one stone!"

"Uncle, please let me think about it!" Sha Zhu turned around and ran out of the room.

"Hey! Pillar! Pillar..." Yi Zhonghai was caught off guard, and when he reacted, the person had already run away.

Yi Zhonghai looked disappointed. He had thought that Sha Zhu would be able to take over the position despite his weak psychological defenses, but he didn't expect that he would run away.

"Old Yi! What do you want the post for?" an old lady asked puzzled.

"It's all for our future retirement plan. We don't have any children, so what are we going to do for our retirement?" Yi Zhonghai glanced at the old lady and said leisurely.

The aunt felt guilty: "Oh! Lao Yi, it's all my fault. I haven't given you a child in all these years!"

"Okay, let's live our own lives and not talk about this anymore." Yi Zhonghai waved his hand.

"I want this position for Dongxu."

"Dongxu?"

"Think about it, after Old Jia passed away, our designated person to take care of him was Jia Dongxu. Over the years, I have been intentionally or unintentionally trying to build a good relationship with the Jia family."

"Then we can find a job for Dongxu and ask him to take us as his godparents, and that will be it, right?"
