Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

Sha Zhu returned home with a lunch box and pastries. Since it was not Sha Zhu's usual time to go home, Qin Huairu was sewing something in the house and had no idea that Sha Zhu had taken leave and returned.

After Sha Zhu entered the house, he placed the lunch box on the table and then went to the backyard carrying the pastries.

He just learned from Yan Bugui that the deaf old lady had been discharged from the hospital and was probably resting at home.

Now Yi Zhonghai is about to be executed, and Yi Zhonghai has done so many inhuman things to him before.

This made Sha Zhu feel a little confused and bewildered about his future life. He originally planned to find a suitable time to visit the deaf old lady in the hospital and ask her some questions.

Now the deaf old lady has discharged herself from the hospital, saving him the trouble of going to the hospital.

Sha Zhu pushed open the door and walked into the room without hesitation. At this time, the deaf old lady had stood up, sitting on the bed, staring out the window, seemingly lost in thought.

"Madam, why did you leave the hospital today? How is your health? I just bought some cakes and was planning to visit you tomorrow morning."

When the deaf old lady saw that it was her good grandson who came and brought cakes, she was so happy. It seemed that Sha Zhu had become mature because of what happened to Yi Zhonghai.

"Zhu Zi, I'm almost well now. It's boring to stay in the hospital, and I miss my eldest grandson, so I'm coming back from the hospital.

As for you, it should be time for work now, why did you come back directly? "

Sha Zhu didn't know what to say, and he didn't want to lie to the deaf old lady, so he told her everything that had just happened at Yan Bugui's house.

However, he did not mention the original intention of the box of pastries. After all, he had just said that he bought it to visit the deaf old lady. Whether she believed it or not, at least she felt happy after hearing it.

After listening to Sha Zhu's words, the deaf old lady began to think and said after thinking for a while.

"Zhu Zi, you did the right thing in this matter. Although you were somewhat led by Yan Bugui, you didn't suffer any loss. It can be said to be a win-win situation."

"Hey, old lady, why do you say that? It was obviously me who made the compromise, and I didn't accomplish any of my goals."

"You silly boy, I heard from the old lady that the price of a workstation is so high now. Tell me, who in our courtyard can afford this money?"

Sha Zhu thought for a while and then answered.

"Old lady, I just took stock. The only people in our courtyard who can afford to buy a formal work position in the steel mill are Zhou Jin, Liu Haizhong's family, Yan Bugui's family, and now the Zhao family."

"Well, you're right, but Zhou Jin doesn't need a workstation right now, and even if he does, there are ways to get one inexpensively.

As for Liu Haizhong's family, Liu Guangqi's salary is not low now, so there is no need to spend such a large sum of money to buy a workstation.

As for the Zhao family, although they are rich now, they also have a workstation, so naturally they don’t need to buy yours.

So although it seems that there are many choices in Siheyuan, in fact, your only cooperation target is Yan Bugui, and you just happen to need his help with something.

So I said this is a win-win situation for both of you, do you still have any objections now?"

Sha Zhu carefully pondered the deaf old lady's words, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense to him.

"Old lady, you are absolutely right! Why didn't I think of this? You are so insightful."

In the following time, Sha Zhu talked to the deaf old lady about Yi Zhonghai. Sha Zhu actually didn't want to mention him. After all, what he did to her was really not a human being.

But in Sha Zhu's life, Yi Zhonghai is too important, even more important than He Daqing.

Yi Zhonghai's influence on Sha Zhu has changed his life. It can be said that Sha Zhu's current state is entirely caused by Yi Zhonghai.

So now Sha Zhu's feelings towards Yi Zhonghai are very complicated. There is definitely hatred in his heart, and it is a lot of hatred, but at the same time, he also has some other feelings.

Sha Zhu himself couldn't explain it clearly, but it was very complicated, so complicated that Sha Zhu didn't know how to face Yi Zhonghai, even though Yi Zhonghai was about to die.

His behavior this morning was simply to vent his anger, but afterwards he was not as excited as he had imagined.

Sha Zhu needs someone to explain these things to him, and the deaf old lady is the most suitable person.

If you were to ask who Sha Zhu listens to the most in the entire courtyard, it would definitely be the deaf old lady.

After all, sometimes when Sha Zhu gets angry, even Yi Zhonghai can't stop him, but as long as the deaf old lady takes action, Sha Zhu will follow the deaf old lady away like a good baby.

That afternoon, Sha Zhu asked all the questions he had about Yi Zhonghai.

The deaf old lady answered them one by one. As for how much truth and water were in her words, Sha Zhu didn't know, or maybe he didn't care.

In short, it was enough to resolve the doubts in their hearts. So the two of them chatted for a long time in the deaf old lady's house. Unknowingly, night fell and it was time for dinner.

Because the topic between the two had not been finished, Sha Zhu quietly slipped back home, picked up the lunch box and returned to the deaf old lady's house.

The reason why he did this was because Qin Huairu was standing by the pool at this time, waiting for Sha Zhu to bring back the lunch box.

But Sha Zhu didn't want to disappoint his sister Qin, but he really couldn't give today's lunch box to Qin Huairu, so he had no choice but to go back to his home like a thief and get his own lunch box.

Sha Zhu took all three lunch boxes directly to the deaf old lady's house, and then he went to make a fire to heat up the food.

Soon the aroma of the food reached the deaf old lady. Although she also ate in the cafeteria in the hospital, the cooking skills of ordinary cafeteria chefs were nowhere near those of Sha Zhu. Even when cooking in a big pot, Sha Zhu's cooking skills were no match for those chefs.

So, as soon as the deaf old lady smelled the food, she was almost drooling.

Fortunately, the meals are all prepared and only need to be heated up.

So soon three lunch boxes were placed on the table.

Even though the deaf old lady is over 70 years old, she has a big appetite. The two of them finished three lunch boxes very quickly.

After dinner, it was no longer Sha Zhu who asked questions to the deaf old lady, but the deaf old lady who took the initiative to talk about her current predicament.

"Zhu Zi, Zhong Hai's affairs are irreversible now, and your aunt will definitely remarry after she is released, otherwise she will not be able to survive."

"Yes, I know all that."

"After your aunt dies, I will have no one to take care of me. I am old now and I don't think I will live for many years. Now I want to ask you for a favor. Can you promise me?"

"Old lady, you said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it beautifully for you."

"Hehe, we are still open-minded. As for me, I originally planned to let Zhonghai and his family take care of me in my old age. After I die, all my house and property will be left to him.

But now my elderly are passing away my young ones, and I can no longer rely on them, so I want you to take care of me in my old age, but all the money in my house has been stolen.

There are only these two houses left, as well as the five yuan subsidy every month and this food allowance. If you are willing, all of these will be left to you. Are you willing?"

Faced with the deaf old lady's request, Sha Zhu was confused at the moment. Although he treated the deaf old lady as his own grandmother, she was not his grandmother after all.

Sha Zhu thought that he could not be like Zhou Jin, who recognized a pair of strangers as his grandparents and was still very filial to them.

Therefore, facing the deaf old lady's request, Sha Zhu was a little hesitant. He wanted to refuse, but he couldn't open his mouth.

He wanted to agree, but he felt a little bit at a disadvantage. Although the deaf old lady was now over seventy years old, she was in good health and it should not be a problem for her to live another ten or eight years.

In this case, the price of these two houses is far from enough.

If Sha Zhu were asked to take care of an old person for ten or eight years, he would not be able to do it. Now the deaf old lady is still in good health and she can do many things by herself.

But what happens when she gets old and lies in bed unable to move? Do I really have to take care of her excrement and urine, feed her, and do her laundry?

Now Shazhu feels terrified just thinking about that scene.

Besides, Shazhu himself is not a diligent person, and he definitely doesn't want to take care of others.

But in order not to embarrass each other, Sha Zhu quickly brainstormed, trying to find a reason that would reject the deaf old lady's request without affecting their relationship.

But the deaf old lady was very shrewd. When she saw the change in Sha Zhu's expression, she knew that he felt that the reward he had received was not enough.

It seems that this silly guy is not really stupid.

However, the deaf old lady was not angry about this. Instead, she felt that it was better that Sha Zhu had some brains. Otherwise, if Qin Huairu emptied the family's money in the future, her retirement life would also be affected.

Of course, these are all what the deaf old lady thought. Little did she know that when facing Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu was really Sha Zhu, the kind that had no resistance at all.

This is a bit off topic. In order to get Sha Zhu to agree to take care of her in her old age, the deaf old lady had no choice but to use her ultimate move.

"Zhu Zi, I know it's a bit abrupt for you to take care of me in my old age, and you should also be considering whether it's worth it.

I have to add one more thing, you should know how Yi Zhonghai regained his position as the eldest uncle, right? "

Sha Zhu nodded quickly to show his agreement.

“Since you know this, I don’t need to explain any more. I will tell you directly that I am the lifesaver of Director Yang’s father. Deputy Director Tang of the Subdistrict Office also received help from me when he was young.

There is another most important person, who is also my biggest supporter. He is Deputy District Mayor Tan of Dongcheng District. When Yi Zhonghai was reinstated as the uncle, it was he who called Director Wang.

If you are willing to support me in my old age, I can guarantee that your work grade will be restored to level eight within one month and promoted to level six within one year.

And I will take you to meet them, and even if I leave in the future, they will become your background."

Hearing this, Sha Zhu was somewhat tempted. No matter how dumb he was, he knew how important these connections were. Moreover, he could recover to be a level eight chef, and even reach a level six chef within a year.

In this way, my monthly income will be around 50 or 60 yuan, more than twice what it is now.
