Yi Zhonghai praised him a few more times, and Sha Zhu became a little smug.

Return to the courtyard.

He Yushui ran all the way to the front door to greet Sha Zhu.

"Brother, I want to eat tomatoes!"

He Yushui stared longingly at Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu was embarrassed.

He brought one back, but just gave it to Yi Zhonghai.

"Rain, everyone says your brother is bad. He forgot when he came back. I promise you, I will definitely bring one back for you tomorrow!"

Helpless, Sha Zhu could only try to coax He Yushui.

Only after saying all the nice things did He Yushui finally smile again.

Ugh!

Sha Zhu sighed.

The next night.

When Sha Zhu returned, he walked to a place not far from the courtyard. Before he saw Yi Zhonghai, he saw He Yushui and Niu Niu coming to greet him.

He Yushui is a few years older than Niu Niu, but they are both children after all.

It's normal for them to hang out together.

Niu Niu has a tomato in her hand.

Sha Zhu recognized it at a glance; it was planted by Wan Ping'an. It must have been given to her by Sun Tiezhu, who left the six acres of land before him.

"Brother, did you bring me tomatoes?"

He Yushui's eyes were filled with longing.

"I brought it. How could I forget what I promised you?"

Sha Zhu took out a tomato.

He Yushui spotted it immediately; there were two tomatoes.

"Great! One for me, and one for Dad!"

He Yushui took both tomatoes.

Sha Zhu was embarrassed. He had brought back two tomatoes, one for his sister and one for the old lady.

He was just about to get one back.

He Yushui, with Niu Niu in tow, ran towards the courtyard house amidst laughter and joy.

It was too late to stop them.

"Silly Zhu?"

Sha Zhu continued walking forward and soon encountered Yi Zhonghai at the intersection.

"Uncle, I, I, sigh!"

"I just brought back two tomatoes, but my sister thought they were for her and ran away with them."

Sha Zhu scratched his head, feeling rather embarrassed.

"Hey, I thought it was something serious?"

"It's alright, you can bring it to the old lady tomorrow."

Yi Zhonghai paused for a moment, then smiled indifferently and comforted Sha Zhu, telling him not to take it to heart.

"Grandpa, you're such a good person! I thought you'd blame me!"

Sha Zhu smiled happily.

"Silly child, how could I blame you?"

"It's getting late, let's go home!"

Yi Zhonghai patted Sha Zhuzi on the shoulder.

Sha Zhu left happily.

He just left.

Yi Zhonghai's face darkened.

“He Yushui is a girl, destined to get married. She’s like water spilled from a cup. What right does she have to compete with the old lady for her?”

Yi Zhonghai's indifference just now was all an act.

He had to pretend to be a good person in front of Sha Zhu.

Actually, he was very angry.

He Yushui is a child, but that doesn't stop Yi Zhonghai from disliking her.

Yi Zhonghai returned to the courtyard and told the deaf old lady about it. The deaf old lady also disliked He Yushui, but the two of them were helpless.

He Yushui is still a child. How could they lay a hand on her?

Of course not!

For the next two weeks, Sha Zhu often brought home double the amount of food.

One of them was from He Yushui or He Daqing.

The other one is fixed, and it belongs to the deaf old lady.

"Silly Zhu, wait a minute."

When getting off work.

Sha Zhu took a pumpkin back with him, but didn't take any tomatoes.

Cai Quanwu called out to Sha Zhu.

"Uncle Cai, is there something you need?"

Sha Zhu was a little surprised.

“You’ve been bringing food home every day lately. It’s fine if you’re eating it yourself or your family is eating it. Ping An is a generous person.”

"However, I must remind you, you must never resell or resell it."

"If Ping An finds out, he won't let you off the hook."

"Okay, let's go!"

"Think carefully about what I'm saying!"

Cai Quanwu and Sha Zhu have a good relationship.

He noticed that Sha Zhu might be in trouble and alerted him.

If Wan Ping'an finds out, it will be too late to stop!

Neither he nor Sha Zhu knew that Wan Ping'an had been keeping an eye on Sha Zhu for a long time. Yan Jiecheng reported to Wan Ping'an every day and kept detailed records.

“While you were talking to Sha Zhu, I kept staring at him. His expression was off; something was definitely wrong!”

Sha Zhu is gone.

When Cai Quanwu returned, Han Dahe blurted out a remark.

"Sigh, I guessed it too."

"Hopefully my warning will have an effect."

"Otherwise, if Ping An finds out, he will not have a good ending."

Cai Quanwu sighed.

That's all he can do. After all, he's Wan Ping'an's man, and even if he has feelings for Sha Zhu, he can't betray Wan Ping'an.

Han Dahe nodded.

When he told Cai Quanwu about Sha Zhu, he was actually reminding Cai Quanwu not to play it safe and not to betray Wan Ping'an's trust!

In his opinion, Sha Zhu was a complete idiot.

If Wan Ping'an can cultivate super golden rice, he will surely rise to prominence. If you focus on following Wang Ping'an, you will definitely live a good life in the future.

Sha Zhu is playing with fire!

Siheyuan.

Yan Jiecheng went to find Wan Ping'an again.

"Brother Ping An, Sha Zhu has changed his tactics."

“He used to always bring back tomatoes, but today he brought back a big pumpkin, and it was for Yi Zhonghai. I saw it clearly.”

Yan Jiecheng felt very strange.

Why hasn't Wan Ping'an made a move against Sha Zhu yet?
