Chapter 354 I will let you live a good life
Sha Zhu felt proud as he watched Jia Zhang wolf down her food. He had long been interested in Qin Huairu, but she had always been so distant from him that he felt itchy. He knew Jia Zhang's greedy nature, and as long as he could please her, he would be able to get in line with Qin Huairu.
"Shazhu, you are such a good person." Jia Zhang said while gnawing on a pig's trotter, "Unlike some people who only know how to spend the family's money and don't know how to care for others."
Sha Zhu knew that Jia Zhang was talking about Qin Huairu, and he quickly agreed, "That's right, Qin Huairu is too ignorant. She didn't want to have such a good man, but insisted on staying with a paralyzed man."
When Jia Zhang heard this, she was so happy that she deliberately sighed and said, "Oh, my son has a miserable life. He married such a wife, but he doesn't even have a queen."
Sha Zhu's eyes rolled, and he immediately understood what Jia Zhang meant. He leaned close to Jia Zhang's ear and whispered, "Mom, don't worry, as long as you agree, I will marry Qin Huairu immediately, take care of Dongxu until his death, and give birth to a few big fat boys."
When Jia Zhang heard this, she was immediately overjoyed. She grabbed Sha Zhu's hand and said excitedly: "Good boy, Mom knows you are reliable! As long as you marry Huai Ru, you will be the pillar of my Jia family in the future!"
Sha Zhu nodded and agreed quickly, but he was thinking in his heart how to get Qin Huairu as soon as possible.
The next morning, Jia Zhang couldn't wait to call Qin Huairu over and told her about Sha Zhu's proposal. Qin Huairu was stunned when she heard it. She didn't expect Jia Zhang to make such a request.
"Mom, how could you do this? Dongxu is not dead yet!" Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang in disbelief.
Jia Zhang snorted coldly and said, "What's the difference between him and a dead person? He lies in bed, needs someone to serve him when he eats, drinks, defecates or urinates. He can't even leave a child! You should remarry while you are still young, so as to save yourself from the trouble."
Qin Huairu's tears suddenly flowed down, and she choked and said, "Mom, I can't let Dongxu down. I promised him that I would take care of him for the rest of his life."
"For a lifetime? How can you take care of him? Look at this family, they can barely make ends meet! If you follow Sha Zhu, at least you can have enough food and clothes, and you can also give Bang Geng a complete home!" Jia Zhang mercilessly poked at Qin Huairu's sore spot.
Qin Huairu covered her face and cried even more sadly. She knew that what Jia Zhang said was true, but she really couldn't accept the reality of remarrying. She had feelings and responsibilities for Jia Dongxu, and she couldn't just abandon him like this.
Seeing Qin Huairu crying like a pear blossom in the rain, Jia Zhang felt annoyed. She pulled Qin Huairu over and said viciously, "Why are you crying? Do you think you are a chaste woman? If you don't agree, I will kick you out and let you beg for food with your stick!"
Qin Huairu was frightened by Jia Zhang's harsh words. She stopped crying, raised her head, her eyes full of despair and helplessness.
At this moment, Sha Zhu came in with a bowl of steaming meat porridge. He placed the porridge in front of Qin Huairu and said softly, "Huairu, stop crying and eat something first."
Qin Huairu looked at the meat porridge in front of her, and then looked at Sha Zhu who looked eager, her heart was full of contradictions and struggles. She knew that if she rejected Sha Zhu, she would face a more difficult situation. But could she really give up her love and responsibility for the sake of survival?
In the dead of night, Qin Huairu lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She thought about Jia Dongxu, Banggeng, Shazhu, and her own future, and her heart was filled with confusion and helplessness. Suddenly, she heard a series of footsteps in the yard, and then a small hole was poked in the window paper...
Qin Huairu's heart was in a mess, like a ball of wool being played with by a cat, and she couldn't sort it out. Through the small hole in the window paper, she saw a dark shadow swaying, and she was startled. Could it be a thief? She held her breath and listened carefully to the movement outside.
The shadow seemed to be testing something, approaching the window cautiously. Qin Huairu's heart beat faster and faster, and she clenched her fists tightly, ready to respond to any emergency at any time.
Suddenly, the window paper was gently lifted, and a familiar face appeared in front of Qin Huairu. It was Sha Zhu.
Qin Huairu's heart sank suddenly. She didn't know why Sha Zhu appeared outside her window at this time. She subconsciously wanted to scream, but Sha Zhu covered her mouth with his hand and whispered, "Huairu, don't be afraid, it's me."
Qin Huairu stared at Sha Zhu with eyes wide open, her eyes full of fear and confusion. Seeing this, Sha Zhu quickly explained: "I saw the light in your room was still on, so I came to see you. Are you okay?"
Qin Huairu then realized that her reaction just now was a bit extreme. She shook her head and indicated that she was fine. Sha Zhu let go of her hand and asked, "Why haven't you slept yet? Are you still sad about what Jia Zhang said?"
Qin Huairu didn't say anything, but just nodded silently. Sha Zhu sighed and said, "Huairu, I know you feel bad, but you have to think about your future. Jia Dongxu is already like this, you can't stay with him forever. You are still young and have a lot of youth. You should find a good man and live a good life."
Qin Huairu's tears flowed again. She choked and said, "Shazhu, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I can't let Dongxu down. I promised him that I would take care of him for the rest of his life, and I can't break my promise."
Seeing Qin Huairu crying, Sha Zhu felt distressed. He reached out his hand, gently wiped the tears from Qin Huairu's face, and said softly, "Huairu, I know you are a woman who values love and friendship, but you also have to think about yourself. If you follow me, I promise to treat you and Banggeng well, and I will let you live a good life."
Qin Huairu raised her head and looked at Sha Zhu's sincere eyes, her heart was filled with emotion. She knew that Sha Zhu was speaking from the heart, and she also knew that Sha Zhu was a man worthy of entrusting her life to. But could she really give up her promise to Jia Dongxu for her own happiness?
Seeing Qin Huairu was hesitant, Shazhu continued to persuade her, "Huairu, I know you still have Dongxu in your heart, but he is already like this. Even if you stay with him for the rest of your life, he won't be able to feel your kindness. You might as well let go, give yourself a chance, and give Banggeng a complete family."
Qin Huairu's heart began to waver, she looked at Sha Zhu, her eyes full of struggle. She knew that Sha Zhu was right, she couldn't ruin her life for a man who was already unconscious.
"Huai Ru, think about it carefully. I won't force you to make any decision. But I hope you can understand that I really want to take care of you." After saying that, Sha Zhu turned and left.
After Sha Zhu left, Qin Huairu sat on the bed alone, lost in thought. She thought about Jia Dongxu, Bang Geng, Sha Zhu, and her future, and her heart was filled with confusion and helplessness.
