Chapter 237: That matter...how is it going?

After noon, Sha Zhu went to the yard and started working.

He first poured a small pot of oil and fried the grass carps, then cut the cooked pork belly into thin slices.

There is indeed not enough meat, but in this year, every table has fish, meat, and eggs, so it is acceptable.

He planned to use the pork belly with cabbage, potatoes, etc. to make a big stew.

As for the staple food, in order to save money, Jia Zhang didn't buy any white flour, but just brought back some sweet potato flour.

Even with the corn flour that the Jia family already had, it was not enough to make one steamed bun for each person.

In desperation, Sha Zhu had to go home and get all the white flour and corn flour from his home.

As for the cooking oil, needless to say, of course Sha Zhu brought his own oil can over.

Sha Zhu was busy on one side, and Qin Huairu was helping to cut cabbage and peel potatoes.

You know what, it was exactly the same as the scene in Shazhu’s dream the night before.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look back at Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu happened to raise her head and wipe the sweat off her face with her sleeves.

When their eyes met, Qin Huairu smiled gently at Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu suddenly had an idea. It seemed like it would be nice to live together with Qin Huairu like this.

Sha Zhu's heart skipped a beat and he quickly killed this sudden idea.

What Xu Damao said two days ago suddenly lingered in his ears.

"Silly Zhu, you are just like your father He Daqing, you are destined to be a widow!"

Sha Zhu felt depressed and no one knew what he was thinking.

Yan Bugui came over.

"Zhu Zi, busy!"

When he saw the pork belly that Sha Zhu was putting into the pot, he was slightly stunned.

How could he remember that the things Jia Zhang bought were just some radishes, potatoes, cabbages and so on? He felt really painful for a while because of this.

Of course I felt sorry for his two dollars and fifty cents.

But he is now the manager of the yard, so he has no choice but to ignore it.

But when he came over and took a look, he saw that there was fish and meat, and Sha Zhu's cooking skills were really good, so the meal looked pretty good.

Yan Bugui was a little puzzled. Where did these fish and meat come from?

I clearly didn’t see it just now.

"Teacher Yan."

Yan Bugui was thinking about it when Sha Zhu suddenly called him.

Yan Bugui came back to his senses.

"What's wrong, Pillar?"

"That..." Sha Zhu said after careful consideration:

"The thing we talked about last time, you..."

"Oh!"

Yan Bugui suddenly realized.

"That's what I was going to tell you!"

Yan Bugui took Sha Zhu a few steps forward and whispered to him:

"In a few days, Teacher Ran will come to visit Banggeng's family."

Yan Bugui pointed in the direction of the Jia family:

"Bang Geng hasn't been to school for a while. Teacher Ran, come over and discuss with Huai Ru and the others whether to consider letting Bang Geng repeat a grade."

"You know, this guy's grades weren't that good to begin with. Now he's missed several months of classes and hasn't studied at home. He's probably even further behind..."

Qin Huairu shouted from behind at this time:

"Teacher Yan, Zhuzi, what are you talking about?"

Yan Bugui glanced at Sha Zhu and said to Qin Huairu:

"Oh, Huairu, I was just about to tell you."

"Bang Geng's homeroom teacher will come to visit your home soon. Bang Geng hasn't been to class for a while. Teacher Ran said he would come to see you and have a chat with you."

Qin Huairu felt relieved.

On second thought, that’s not right. What does the coming of Banggeng’s head teacher have to do with Shazhu?

Then he saw Sha Zhu's somewhat evasive expression and Yan Bugui's somewhat meaningful look.

In a flash, Qin Huairu understood.

Could it be that Sha Zhu’s blind date is Teacher Ran?

Qin Huairu's mind buzzed and the expression on her face became a little stiff.

She tried her best to make her expression look natural.

She said:

"Oh, that's right, I understand."

"Thank you, Teacher Yan."

"Well, you're welcome."

Yan Bugui was all smiles.

"Well, the dishes are almost ready. I'll go and knead the dough."

Qin Huairu said this and walked back to her room dejectedly.

Sha Zhu looked at her back and felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Teacher Yan, I'm going home to get some seasoning. Can you help me take a look at these things?"

Yan Bugui nodded: "Okay, go ahead."

Yi Zhonghai happened to come over and was a little surprised to see Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu.

"Old Yan, what were you talking about just now?"

"Why does Huairu look unhappy to me?"

Yan Bugui blinked and said:

"No way?"

"I just want to tell Huairu that Banggeng's homeroom teacher is coming to visit our home."

Then, he lowered his voice and said to Yi Zhonghai:

"It just so happens that you never found the opportunity to do the thing you told me about a few days ago, didn't you?"

"I think this is a rare opportunity. When Teacher Ran comes, let Zhuzi find a way to meet him."

"I think we should talk to Huairu about this. Isn't Teacher Ran here for a home visit? Then ask her to help and find a way to create opportunities for Shazhu and Teacher Ran."

"In this way, the probability of success will be greater."

Yan Bugui said this excitedly, thinking that Yi Zhonghai would be very happy.

Unexpectedly, Yi Zhonghai's reaction was indeed very calm.

"Oh, let's talk about it later. There's no rush for this."

Yan Bugui was very confused.

The one who arranged this matter in the first place was Yi Zhonghai.

Moreover, he would come to urge me every now and then, asking if there was any progress.

Now that he finally found the opportunity, he found that Yi Zhonghai's reaction was unexpectedly calm, and Sha Zhu's reaction was also a bit unusual. Why were they so strange?

"No, Lao Yi, what do you mean?"

"It was you who asked me to bring Teacher Ran and Sha Zhu together. Now that there's an opportunity, what's wrong with you?"

"Are you still going to pull this thread? Give me your answer!"

Thinking of Sha Zhu's strange look just now, Yan Bugui asked:

"Why, is Zhuzi unwilling?"

"Has he found someone else?"

Yi Zhonghai said:

"What are you thinking? It's not happening!"

"I just feel that Yu Shui is trying to separate from Zhu Zi. I'm afraid he's in a bad mood and won't be in the mood for a blind date."

"Also, you said you wanted Huairu to help, but the Jia family is currently handling a funeral, so where would they have the time to help?"

Yan Bugui tilted his head and said "Hi".

"No! Zhuzi just asked me how the matter with Teacher Ran went."

"Besides, the Jia family's funeral has been completed, and there will be nothing else to do after finishing the funeral banquet today. Teacher Ran will be here in a few days, so we can use this time to study this matter."

Yi Zhonghai had nothing to say.

"Oh, all right."

"Okay, then I'll do as you say."

Yi Zhonghai left after he finished speaking.

Yan Bugui nodded.

Sha Zhu had promised that as long as he and Teacher Ran succeeded, he would give himself and Yi Zhonghai a generous thank-you gift.

Moreover, Yi Zhonghai also said that he did not want the thank-you gift and gave both to Yan Bugui.

Although Sha Zhu didn't say what it was specifically, judging from his usual generosity, this thank-you gift must be quite substantial.

Yan Bugui suddenly thought of something and slapped his forehead.

"I see!"
