Chapter 501: Sha Zhu Resigns
"What did you say! You resigned?"

After Sha Zhu resigned, he returned home early. When Jia Zhang saw Sha Zhu coming back so early, she asked him why he came back so early.

There was no way to hide this matter from others. Sha Zhu told the truth about his reasons for quitting the job. After hearing this, Jia Zhang wanted to slap Sha Zhu. If Sha Zhu quit, then where would their family get the income from? How could they support their family relying on Qin Huairu's salary?

"I quit. These people are really too much. Now they don't even say bad things about me behind my back."

Sha Zhu was still angry when he got home. He really couldn't do this job anymore.

"Shazhu, if you quit, how will this family live? Are we going to rely on Huairu's salary?"

Jia Zhang began to act sarcastic. The first and most profound impact of Sha Zhu's resignation was on their family's food.

At this time, Jia Zhang was accustomed to a life of eating white flour and meat every meal. If she were asked to go back to the time when she ate steamed corn bread, she really couldn't get used to it.

If Bang Geng was still there, she would have just endured it. But now that Bang Geng is gone, how could she possibly treat herself badly?

"Shazhu, you don't think that the life of this family depends on Huairu alone, do you? If that's the case, then are you still a man?"

In this day and age, it is really rare to see someone living off a woman.

"How can that be possible? I'll just quit and find another one. There are plenty of people who want my cooking skills."

Sha Zhu doesn't think that his career as a chef is over. Although he can't use much strength in his right hand, he still has no problem using a spoon.

He is just not used to flipping the wok with his left hand now. Once he has trained himself with his left hand, he will have no problem being the head chef of a small restaurant.

Jia Zhang looked at the scar on Sha Zhu's right arm and listened to his boasting words, a disdainful smile appeared on Jia Zhang's face.

"Since you are back, you should go and take care of an old man. His sheets and quilts are easy to wash."

Since Sha Zhu is back, Jia Zhang just handed over the task of taking care of Yi Zhonghai to Sha Zhu. Yi Zhonghai already treats Sha Zhu as his own son anyway.

When Sha Zhu heard what Jia Zhang said, he suddenly felt a headache. He was too lazy to take care of himself, and now an old man came to him, an old man paralyzed in bed. This made Sha Zhu very embarrassed.

How come this is different from what he had expected? When he was taking care of the old lady in the backyard before, he didn't see this old man having any difficulties. Why is it so difficult for him to take care of the same old lady here?

Sha Zhu never expected that the person who actually took care of the old lady in the backyard was not Yi Zhonghai, but an aunt. The most Yi Zhonghai did was to deliver some flour or something, so Sha Zhu thought that taking care of an old lady was quite simple.

This matter really fell on his head, and he was suddenly overwhelmed by the need to take care of it.

But there was no other way around it. Things like washing Yi Zhonghai's body and changing his clothes had to be done by Sha Zhu himself.

Even if Qin Huairu wanted to do it, Sha Zhu and Jia Zhang would not agree, not to mention Jia Zhang herself, she would not take care of Yi Zhonghai.

Not to mention the other two uncles in the hospital. They are elderly themselves, so how can they take care of another paralyzed old man?

There was no other way, he had to take responsibility for the whole thing. What's more, Sha Zhu was still living with Yi Zhonghai and he didn't even have his own house. So Sha Zhu had to come to Yi Zhonghai's house in a bad mood, and changed Yi Zhonghai's bedding with a little disgust on his face.

Sha Zhu's disgusted expression was completely seen by Yi Zhonghai. Ever since Yi Zhonghai became paralyzed, he had become depressed, and the good mood on his face brought by his comfortable retirement life had completely disappeared.

By the evening, everyone knew about Sha Zhu's resignation. Qin Huairu was stunned after hearing the news. She thought Sha Zhu supported the family with his salary, but she didn't expect that it was her salary that supported the family.

Fortunately, she did not resign at that time. When Sha Zhu just started working at the hotel with Lou Xiao'e, she almost resigned to take care of the people at home. Unexpectedly, Bang Geng lost all the family savings in one go. Now Qin Huairu was even more afraid to resign.

"Sha Zhu, what are you thinking? Our family depends on your salary to survive." Qin Huairu stared at Sha Zhu blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Sha Zhu once again explained the reason for his resignation.

"You're resigning just for this?"

Sha Zhu's reasons seemed totally incomprehensible to Qin Huairu, and this was the difference between Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu.

When she was working in the steel factory, Qin Huairu heard a lot of gossip from others, but she was thick-skinned and didn't take it to heart at all. In Qin Huairu's opinion, nothing was more important than Banggeng's safe growth.

"Isn't this serious? How can I, a grown man, tolerate such humiliation from them?" Sha Zhu was also surprised. In his opinion, this was an insult to his dignity. This matter was not serious!
"Shazhu, do you really care about me and this family? If you resign, the family will have no income. What will we eat and drink in the future?"

Qin Huairu said this as if she had no salary, which was indeed the case. She saved the little money she had, just in case Bang Geng came back from somewhere.

Sha Zhu didn't count on Qin Huairu's salary: "Don't worry, I can always find a job."

Qin Huairu thought to herself, you are about to become a disabled person, how can you find another job? If Lou Xiao'e hadn't not fired you because of our acquaintance, you would have been out of money long ago.

Seeing that Sha Zhu was being stubborn, Qin Huairu put the things in her hand on the table and walked out angrily.

"Hey, where are you going? The meal at home is not cooked yet."

Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu strangely and shouted loudly behind her.

"You guys can cook and eat it yourself, I don't want to do it anymore."

Qin Huairu turned her face away and walked away.

"Hey, why are you so angry?"

Sha Zhu was like a confused monk - he was totally confused and didn't understand why Qin Huairu was angry.

There was no other way, so Shazhu had to cook dinner himself.

Qin Huairu still hadn't come back during dinner time, and the others began to ask about her whereabouts in surprise.

Sha Zhu shrugged to indicate that he didn't know.

"Silly dad, you've made my mom angry again."

Xiao Dang sighed. Every time Sha Zhu did something that Qin Huairu didn't like, Qin Huairu always reacted like this.

Xiaodang and Huaihua always said that it was Shazhu who made Qin Huairu angry, and never cared whether Shazhu did the right thing or not.
