Chapter 49: Shazhu's Thoughts
Sha Zhu was drinking alone in the room.
After Wang Jianye entered the room, he closed the door casually, then pulled a chair and sat down.
"Are you going to Baocheng to find your father?"
Hearing Wang Jianye's question, Sha Zhu snorted, "That old guy is not my father."
"Then are you still going to look for him?"
Wang Jianye asked again.
Sha Zhu hesitated for a moment.
He Yushui, who was standing next to him, cried and yelled, "Brother, can you take me to find him?"
Sha Zhu was originally hesitant about going to Baocheng to find He Daqing, but after hearing He Yushui crying, he made up his mind: "Okay, then I'll take you to find him and ask him in person why he left and whether he still wants us brothers and sisters. If he doesn't want us, then we won't recognize him."
He Yushui held back her tears and nodded vigorously.
In the drama, after He Daqing fled to Baocheng with the White Widow, Sha Zhu never saw He Daqing in Baocheng again.
Because when the brother and sister came to his house, He Daqing was not at home, and when Widow Bai knew they were coming, she didn't even let them in and told them that He Daqing didn't want them anymore.
From then on, Sha Zhu and He Yu Shui gave up and never looked for He Daqing again.
This gave Yi Zhonghai an opportunity to take advantage of and make Sha Zhu his own retirement tool.
The reason why Wang Jianye brought up this matter was because he didn't want to see Yi Zhonghai succeed easily and tie Sha Zhu to his retirement warship.
"So when do you plan to go there and how are you going to find him? He just said in his mind that he was going to Baocheng, but he didn't leave an address."
"Let's wait for a while. I... He Daqing will definitely look for a job after he settles down in Baocheng. With his cooking skills, he will surely become famous soon. Then I will take He Yushui with me and ask around in various Sichuan restaurants to see if there are any new and amazing chefs. It shouldn't be difficult to find him."
Sha Zhu knew his father very well and had a clear idea of how he should find him.
Wang Jianye nodded. "That's a good idea indeed. But when you find out where he lives, you can't just go and look for him."
Sha Zhu was stunned: "Why?"
Wang Jianye explained, "Think about it, who did Master He run away with? A widow named Bai. Would that widow want you two to meet He Daqing? What if He Daqing softens his heart and goes back with you? So if you go directly to her house, Widow Bai may not allow you in, and she may even make up a lie, saying that Master He doesn't want you anymore and doesn't plan to contact you in the future."
"Well, that makes sense."
After regaining his sanity, Sha Zhu's brain worked very well and he immediately understood what Wang Jianye said, "In that case, I will stop him at his workplace and not go to his residence."
Wang Jianye nodded: "This is a good idea. You don't have to meet with the widow. You can go directly to the company to communicate with Master He. I'm sure you can get things clear."
In order to thank Wang Jianye for reminding him, Sha Zhu poured him a glass of wine.
Wang Jianye didn't drink because he had to go to Jia's house to cook later.
After leaving Sha Zhu's house, Wang Jianye first returned to his home in the backyard.
At this moment, Zhang Lan returned home from get off work and listened to Wang Jiannan and Wang Jianwu chattering about what happened in the yard.
He Daqing ran away with the widow, and Sha Zhu beat Xu Damao and his father.
Zhang Lan was very surprised when she heard this.
Have I missed so much fun?
Zhang Lan is a fitter at Lou’s Steel Rolling Mill, and so is Yi Zhonghai.
However, in order to take care of Jia Dongxu's banquet, Yi Zhonghai took a leave of absence today together with Jia Dongxu, so the two of them stayed at home today.
But Zhang Lan did not ask for leave, so she missed the show in the yard.
Now that she had returned home and heard the tutoring Wang Jianwu and Wang Jiannan were giving her, she felt that she had really broadened her horizons and gained more knowledge. "I didn't expect He Daqing to be that kind of person. He just said he didn't want two children."
Zhang Lan said with emotion.
Wang Jianye listened for a while, and suddenly said, "It's not necessarily that he doesn't want these two children, but seeing that Sha Zhu has grown up and has a skill that can support himself and his sister, He Daqing is going to live the life he wants."
"If that's the case, then why didn't He Daqing tell the two children before he left?"
"If I tell him, will He Daqing be able to leave? Look at how He Yushui is crying today. He is definitely not willing to let He Daqing go. And Shazhu may not be willing either. He might even fight with him. Then their He family will become an even bigger joke. It's better for them to leave first and write a letter to explain and comfort him later."
Wang Jianye expressed his opinion.
Zhang Lan thought there was some truth in it.
The family hadn't had dinner yet, so Wang Jianye took out the lunch box he had brought back from the kitchen.
There was a dish of stir-fried shredded pork tenderloin. He made too much when cooking, so he brought the excess back.
This is considered a dish, but there are so many people in the family, so one dish is definitely not enough.
Zhang Lan planned to make another dish of vermicelli stewed with cabbage.
Wang Jianye helped her, and after a while, the dish was ready.
Wang Jianye ate a few bites, then put on his apron and prepared to go to Jia's house to try the food.
At this time, Xu Damao pushed his bicycle to his door.
When Wang Jianye saw him, he asked curiously, "You just came back? Where have you been for such a long time?"
"Hey, don't mention it. After I borrowed your car and ran away, I went directly to the police station to report the incident. As a result, Yi Zhonghai came over while I was waiting in line. I wanted to call the police, but Yi Zhonghai stopped me and argued with me for a long time, so I was delayed until now."
Xu Damao finished explaining.
Wang Jianye asked again: "What about Uncle Xu? Has he come back?"
"What happened to my dad?"
Xu Damao doesn’t know yet that his father was beaten by Sha Zhu. He just came back and hasn’t gone home yet.
Wang Jianye then told the story of what Sha Zhu did to Xu Damao's father after Xu Damao left.
"Hey, this bastard, beating me is not enough, he even beats my dad?"
Xu Damao was snorting angrily. He didn't expect that Sha Zhu would not even let his father go. He gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Wait, don't let him fall into my hands. If he falls into my hands once, I will see if I can't kill him!"
Xu Damao returned the car and went back to his home.
Wang Jianye tied an apron on himself and came to the central courtyard.
At this time, he met Yi Zhonghai who had just returned from the police station.
"How is Uncle Yi?"
"Xu Damao wanted to call the police, but I stopped him."
Yi Zhonghai was very tired.
I saw Wang Jianye putting on his apron and preparing to enter the Jia family.
He did not go home, but followed Wang Jianye into the Jia family.
Wang Jianye agreed yesterday that he would prepare a banquet for the Jia family the day after tomorrow, and would come to the Jia family after get off work tomorrow to cook a few dishes to test his skills.
So after eating a few bites of food at home, Wang Jianye put on an apron and came to Jia's house, ready to try out a few dishes and then discuss what specific dishes would be prepared for tomorrow's banquet.
