Chapter 420 Otherwise I won’t agree

Yu Li was so anxious that she stamped her feet as she watched Zhang Xingwang running farther and farther away. It was impossible for her to catch him. It was inappropriate for a grown-up girl like her to chase a young man, not to mention that the other party was holding a fishing rod as thick as her wrist. If he suddenly had a brain accident, she would not be able to keep him.

But looking at the backpack in front of her, Yu Li was completely confused. She couldn't understand what keeping a distance had to do with her brother and sister. She and Brother Xingwang just met by chance, so why did it become like collecting a debt?

He dropped his stuff and ran away before I even looked for him. I went to the street office to look for him, but why did he still throw stuff around? My mother's search was in vain...

Zhang Xingwang was a little regretful now, thinking that he was careless. He shouldn't have come to the park with his passive attribute. The three fish didn't matter, but what if Yu Li's family couldn't pay back the money and delayed Yu Li's marriage? What was the difference between this and Huang Shiren's way of doing things? He should have made it clear that he didn't want the things before running away...

After jogging out of the park, Zhang Xingwang once again secretly vowed not to come again. Seeing that it was still early, he rode his bike to the trust store. After all, there was not even a bed in the upside-down house in the front yard, so if his aunts came to his house later, they would have a place to stay.

When Bai Xiaoya comes, I have to go back to the village quickly and put the matter of the aunts going to the city on the agenda. Also, I should go and get Uncle Yougen’s eggs, otherwise what will I do if they turn into chicks?

After we went in, we found that the trust store had a more complete range of items than the department store, from needles and thread to clothes and furniture. According to the clerk, except for a wife and food, all your life needs can be met here.

The guys in the store are not like those in the supply and marketing cooperatives and restaurants. Their service attitude is directly similar to that of Curly-haired Brother. Although the store is very busy, no matter how well or badly they dress, at least they will greet you with a smile.

The only shortcoming is that they talk more than Zhang Xingwang. Several of them are social phobics. As long as you dare to talk to them, they will never let the words drop. They will chat with you even when they have some free time. They are very outgoing.

After Zhang Xingwang explained his purpose, the waiter looked him over and took him to the backyard. He kept talking as they walked, saying that people's enthusiasm for consignment sales had increased since the quota was reduced recently.

Even the objects appeared several times a day. He shook his head and said that compared with his stomach, nothing was important, but the antiques were the truth left by his ancestors. After saying that, he glanced at Zhang Xingwang meaningfully.

Zhang Xingwang understood what the guy meant after listening to him. His marketing level was comparable to that of Curly Brother. If anyone with some spare money heard this, probably half of them would ask, and then use their remaining money to buy a few pieces. However, Zhang Xingwang knew the trend of the next few years, so it was not the right time to collect antiques.

Instead of going through all the trouble to get antiques now, you might as well exchange them for grain in two years. According to the routine in the novel, in the next two years, as long as you have grain, you can exchange antiques by the kilogram.

Ignoring the impassioned waiter, Zhang Xingwang made a perfunctory monosyllable remark, picked out a set of almost new mahogany bed and cabinet, and prepared to check out and go home.

A look of disappointment flashed across the clerk's face, but he still skillfully issued the invoice and respectfully called Wobo over for him.

The transporter worked hard to load the goods onto the truck for a long time, and when it was almost time to get off work, Zhang Xingwang finally followed Wobo back to the yard.

At this time, everyone had returned one after another, with all kinds of strange expressions on their faces. Some even went straight home. Uncle Liugen looked at the truck full of furniture and hurried over to lend a hand. Then several aunts began to comment on the second-hand bed.

Liu Haizhong soon appeared. He looked at the collapsed house and felt sad for a while, then called his two sons for help. He never mentioned the house from beginning to end, which made Zhang Xingwang a little puzzled.

It was not until Xu Damao walked back that Zhang Xingwang figured out what was going on.

"Brother Damao, you're going to work before you're fully recovered?"

Xu Damao glanced at the backyard with melancholy, and replied with a forced smile:

"Brother Mao, I am in good health. I have already applied for it. I will go to the countryside to show movies tomorrow and serve the people. I will stay for ten days or so and then come back."

Seeing Zhang Xingwang's noncommittal look, Xu Damao rolled his eyes, stopped his bicycle and said with a smile on his face:

"Xingwang, I'm getting married now, so isn't it time for someone of our generation to take a seat as the uncle in our courtyard?

If we don't hurry up, it will be too late. You may not know that our uncle showed up in the factory today. Not only did all his apprentices get promoted, but one of them even got a job as a laborer."

After listening to Xu Damao's nagging, Zhang Xingwang realized that Liu Haizhong was determined this time. Being an old man in the courtyard was just a starting point. This time he was aiming for a leadership position in the factory. There are a lot of people with high ideological awareness now. As for the house and the son, they were stumbling blocks on the road to progress.

After all this time, today is the day for factory evaluation. No wonder some people are happy and some are worried. The two were chatting animatedly when they saw Jia Dongxu coming back listlessly, followed by the sloppy Sha Zhu.

Xu Damao spat quietly at Sha Zhu, and without even caring about his superiority, he pushed the cart over to have an argument with Sha Zhu, saying that Sha Zhu was a disrespectful person and that he had been unable to get down from the hot spot in the factory for a week.

He is still a popular figure now. Everyone who sees him will smile for half a minute to show respect. After all, there are not many men who have been kicked into the hospital twice by their wives. Xu Damao is the only one in the whole Yanjing City.

Seeing Sha Zhu's gloating expression, Xu Damao could no longer hold back and began to belittle Sha Zhu physically and professionally. Seeing Sha Zhu rubbing his hands together, he said in a hoarse voice:

"Silly Zhu, you are capable, aren't you? If you have the guts, try touching your grandfather."

After saying that, he glanced at his wife who had just returned from get off work, hid behind Cheng Pingping in a haughty manner, stuck out his tongue wildly to provoke Sha Zhu, and instigated his wife to appeal and teach the other party a lesson. He would go back to cook and wait for his wife to return triumphantly.

Cheng Pingping was a person who could distinguish right from wrong. She was very grateful to Sha Zhu. Although her husband was ashamed of it, he did help her anyway. She disagreed with Xu Damao's approach and said with a chuckle:

"Brother Zhuzi, don't mind me. Damao is also feeling uncomfortable. This matter... is... me..."

At this point, Cheng Pingping blushed and couldn't continue, after all, the root was in her leg.

Sha Zhu stared at Cheng Pingping's shy expression for a moment, then rubbed his hands and stammered back:

"Oh... it's okay, I understand. We are childhood friends and we are used to bickering. But you are still sensible, much better than that grandson. Choosing you as his wife is a blessing for his ancestors... um... what I mean is that you are much better than Xu Damao."

"No more talking. I have to go home and help Damao cook. You can't bully Damao again, or I won't agree."

Cheng Pingping just smiled and shook her head after hearing this, and turned back after leaving a few words. Sha Zhu watched Cheng Pingping disappear into the Moon Gate, smacked his lips and muttered:

"This woman is pretty good. It's a waste of time for her to follow Xu Damao!"

This scene happened to be seen by Qin Huairu, who had gone out to wait for her husband. She looked at Sha Zhu thoughtfully, feeling that she had discovered something extraordinary.
