Siheyuan: Xu Damao corrects his evil ways
Chapter 426: Love at first sight and love over time
After hearing what Xu Damao said, Lou Xiao'e and He Yushui felt relieved.
The two of them had some old friends in Beijing. Considering the situation after the reform and opening up, if the two women asked someone for help, that person would definitely be willing to help.
He Yushui's relationship is still a bit shallow. For example, Lou Tan's family has received many requests from old friends, asking Lou Tan's family to send them to America or other places.
In other words, someone who has just woken up from a nightmare does not want to stay in that bed.
As for the channel through which I contacted Mr. Lou Tan, I can only say that every crab has its own way and every shrimp has its own way.
If those people had not been reluctant to leave their properties in Old City, they might have fled to Hong Kong Island early on.
Now there are only a few dilapidated houses and some old things left. He asked Lou Tan for help, and also wanted to use Lou Tan to sell the things he had.
Lou Tan did not agree to send those people out, although those things were not too difficult for her.
But it will have a bad impact on Xu Damao.
Now the Lou Tan family also subconsciously regards Xu Damao as the head of the family.
This is completely different from when Xu Damao first came to this world and tried to please Lou Tan like a servant.
The world changes rapidly over time, which is perfectly reflected in Xu Damao.
Lou Tan was reluctant to give away things, but she was very interested in collecting old things.
Keep the good ones for yourself and sell the inferior ones for a higher price.
Of course, we still need to pay attention to this matter.
For example, Lou Tan’s only collects goods in Hong Kong Island, and Lou Tan’s does not care how those people transport the goods here.
But Lou Tan only accepts goods on the "market" in Hong Kong Island.
Naturally, some people believed in Lou Tan, while others wanted to sell it at a high price.
The disadvantage of Lou Tan's doing this is that the price she offers is low, and her meaning is also very clear. As a middleman, she always has to make some money.
But Lou Tan also has advantages. He has money, and it is money that can be seen openly. Whether it is US dollars or Hong Kong dollars, Lou Tan can take it out openly.
Besides, Lou Tan's side abides by the rules. As long as the seller does not play tricks, Lou Tan's family will never do anything weird.
It is for this reason that those who feel insecure about cashing in their assets like to do business with Lou Tan.
Of course, some people don’t want to do business with Lou Tan’s, but Lou Tan’s dislikes the fact that those people’s goods are too earthy.
Of course, Mrs. Lou Tan collected those fine items not because she liked them so much, but because she wanted to leave something for her eldest grandson Xu Shengli and granddaughter Xu Tuanyuan.
This was caused by Xu Damao's idle talk.
Once, Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao went to a banquet, and she ran to Lou Tan's place to get the family heirloom bracelet.
When Lou Xiao'e married Xu Damao, Lou Tan gave the things to her.
But after arriving in Hong Kong Island, perhaps because there were too many children in the family, or perhaps Lou Xiao'e subconsciously separated her dowry from the Xu family's property, in any case Lou Xiao'e handed her dowry over to Lou Tan for safekeeping.
Anyway, the two families lived close to each other, and Lou Tan didn't have another child, so Xu Damao didn't care about the little thoughts of the mother and daughter. But when he saw a box of jewelry, Xu Damao was really amazed by those beautiful treasures.
It was not until then that Xu Damao realized that "splendor and jewels" was not an exaggerated adjective, but a realistic word.
At that time, Xu Damao blurted out, "Gold in troubled times, jewels in prosperous times, no wonder the rich treat these things as heirlooms. They are really good things that can be passed down to future generations."
Lou Tan was rich, had free time, and had connections. Although Lou Xiao'e's royalties and the income from her restaurant were not much, they were a steady stream.
In other words, they listened to Xu Damao's words, so Lou Tan's business added another item.
Those old friends went to Lou Tan to exchange money. Some of them really left, but some stayed in the city.
Therefore, when it comes to old friends in Beijing, Lou Xiao'e is no less familiar than Xu Damao.
Life is relatively safe now. If Xu Damao has no objection, Lou Xiao'e will naturally think about helping her parents-in-law resolve their worries.
The portal is big, so everything needs to be taken into consideration.
So sometimes Lou Xiao'e really envies the carefreeness of the rain.
Just like Xu Damao arranged a charity job for Yu Shui, other people would never think of spending money to buy fame.
However, He Yushui was busy with the affairs of the five primary schools in Sijiu City. After returning to Xu Damao, he asked Xu Damao to find someone else to take charge.
He said climbing mountains and wading through water was too tiring.
There is no other reason for this.
The blessed ones don't have to be busy. This is how Lou Xiao'e has always looked at He Yushui.
It seems that He Yushui is lazier than anyone else and doesn't want to take care of anything, but she is also the happiest one in the Xu family.
Lou Tan was not on guard against her, the children liked her, and Xu Damao was also completely unprepared for this daughter-in-law.
Even Lou Xiao'e herself couldn't hate the sister who stole her husband.
And Rain got no less than them in terms of what he deserved.
Recently, Lou Xiao'e put down her pen and followed Xu Damao to learn how to do business.
At the beginning, Xu Damao asked her to join the literary world in order to gain some fame so as to protect the Xu family from being controlled by Lou Bancheng.
Now Lou Bancheng has returned to dust, and the Lou family in Hong Kong is no longer on the same level as the Xu family.
So in recent years, Lou Xiao'e has become lazy again, and has focused more of her energy on managing the Xu family's inner residence.
The children are basically grown up now, and He Yushui and Ran Qiuye are not pretentious people, so during this period of time Xu Damao has been intentionally or unintentionally leading Lou Xiaoe to handle various official duties.
Xu Damao didn’t know much else, but he knew a little about his wife’s business talent.
Xu Damao felt that if he had not led Lou Xiao'e astray, Lou Xiao'e might be the head of the Xu family now.
But as his business grows bigger and bigger, if we count the starting point from the reform and opening up, then Xu Damao can be said to have had a great start.
How to safely and steadily expand his own business is the biggest challenge Xu Damao faces now.
Although Ran Qiuye could help him a lot, because his identity had not been confirmed, he could not make decisions for Xu Damao openly.
In this case, Xu Damao didn't know who to trust except Lou Xiao'e.
For example, when they went to a small southern city to build an industrial zone, Xu Damao seldom expressed his opinions, and left most of the issues to Lou Xiao'e.
As for whether Ran Qiuye was strange or not, Xu Damao had no way to deal with it.
Their children are about to go to primary school, but the Ran family still wants to turn a blind eye and refuses to acknowledge the fact of Ran Qiuye and Xu Damao’s marriage.
This left Xu Damao helpless.
If the Ran family had a smaller business, or had some wishes they wanted to realize,
Xu Damao can still think of a solution.
But Ran's father and mother were both literati, and their families were wealthy, so they had no particular desire for worldly things.
There are things that they may want, such as peace and prosperity for the country and a strong people. This is what Ran's father and mother want.
But Xu Damao had small arms and legs, so he could only do his part in those things, but he really couldn't carry them.
It was because Xu Damao saved the Ran family's lives, Ran Qiuye and Xu Damao were in love with each other, and they gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, that Xu Damao allowed the children to have the surname Ran.
Only then did Ran's father and the others rub their bellies and tacitly approve of the relationship between the two.
Otherwise, it is a question whether the current status can be maintained.
If it were a second or third person with the same relationship with Ran Qiuye, Ran's father and mother might have taken their daughter and ran away long ago.
Spring has arrived in Beijing, and it is also the season of love.
Xu Zhaodi herself had never thought about it. She had just said goodbye to her best friend not long ago, and then her luck suddenly improved.
Ever since Lou Xiao'e mentioned Xu Zhaodi's emotional situation to Xu Damao, Xu Damao contacted a certain agency in Hong Kong Island.
That is to let Xu Zhaodi return to normal life, so her good friend who entered the supply and marketing cooperative at the same time as Xu Zhaodi, and her best friend who was single with her, was suddenly transferred to another place because of work needs.
Xu Zhaodi was truly sad and she hugged her best friend and said goodbye with tears.
If it weren't for this best friend who was by her side to comfort her and give her warmth over the years, Xu Zhaodi herself wasn't sure whether she could have survived the loneliness and regret.
There is definitely regret, her life should have been so wonderful. Marrying into a wealthy family is a dream for other girls, but for Xu Zhaodi, it was a real path.
As long as she took one step at a time and didn't take the wrong path, it would have been easily achieved.
But Xu Zhaodi didn't know what was going on. She refused to walk on the bright road and instead took the path of self-destruction.
Xu Zhaodi didn't know whether she hated her parents or Xu Damao.
Sometimes it is hatred, but there is also guilt in the hatred.
This struggle has never stopped in recent years.
If she hadn't met a good friend, Xu Zhaodi thought that even if she didn't die, she would go crazy. But now her good friend was transferred away for work reasons, which made Xu Zhaodi feel empty again.
Xu Zhaodi saw her good friend Xu Jing off on a southbound train. What she didn't know was that her friend had originally bought a hard seat ticket, but after the train left the station, her friend picked up her bag and walked directly into the soft sleeper compartment.
There were two middle-aged men wearing glasses sitting in the box. After some politeness, one of them said to Xu Jing, "Comrade Xu Jing, I have assigned you a new task.
Entrusted by Mr. XXX, I have decided to send you as an assistant to protect Ms. XXX's safety. Your main task is to guard against...~~
I'll give you two weeks off so you can go home and spend time with your husband and children."
.........
What Xu Zhaodi didn’t know was that her best friend who said she wanted to be single with her, already had a child who was so old.
Xu Zhaodi walked out of the platform in a trance, but accidentally knocked down an elegant young man when leaving the station.
Xu Zhaodi quickly apologized and reached out to help the young man opposite her.
The young man had a handsome face and a well-built figure. When Xu Zhaodi saw him, her face turned red before she even apologized.
This person was definitely not arranged by Lou Xiao'e and the others.
Xu Zhaodi apologized, "Comrade, I'm sorry. I didn't pay attention just now. I'm really sorry."
Unexpectedly, the young man said gently: "I see your eyes are red, you just sent your relatives and friends out of the station, right?
I understand, I understand. I sent this to my sister as well. I might cry like you."
Humorous words can ease awkwardness!
The young man's words helped Xu Zhaodi get out of her embarrassment.
It is hard to explain the fate between people. Xu Zhaodi subconsciously explained: "My best colleague is also my good sister."
The young man was also surprised. He saw that the girl opposite him was pretty and her clothes were not like those of ordinary people, so he paid attention to being polite when speaking.
Finally, the girl explained it to him. How should he respond?
For a moment, the young man and Xu Zhaodi were stunned.
Unexpectedly, a voice from the front broke the deadlock.
A girl with a round face shouted, "Brother, hurry up."
Xu Zhaodi said in a panic: "Your sister is calling you, please go quickly.
I’m from a certain supply and marketing cooperative, my name is Xu Zhaodi.”
After Xu Zhaodi finished speaking, she ran out, covering her burning cheeks. She didn't know why, but her heart beat very fast when she saw the young man.
The young man touched his nose and shook his hair, full of confidence.
It was also the first time he met such a proactive girl.
What the young man didn't know was that Xu Zhaodi had been hanging out with the rich second generation in Hong Kong Island for a while. When it came to emotional matters, Xu Zhaodi could really be his teacher.
It’s just that for so many years, Xu Zhaodi never had the chance to put it into practice in Beijing.
Not only Xu Zhaodi, but Huaihua also recently found herself in love.
Unlike Xu Zhaodi's sweetness, Huaihua just felt bitter because she fell in love with someone she shouldn't love.
That’s right, the man she fell in love with was the owner of the restaurant.
That savage guy with a very masculine aura.
Huaihua didn't know why this happened.
Logically speaking, she was ten years younger than the restaurant owner, and men with rough looks were not her type.
But when Huaihua was most helpless, it was that man who took her in.
When Huaihua was wary of him, the man showed her what safety was through his actions.
When a customer harassed her, the man would come out to deal with the customer and act as his bodyguard.
Even the last time Jia Zhang sued her, it was that boss who gave her the solution.
One thing after another, when Huaihua was most lonely and helpless, it was the bearded man who protected her life.
What troubled Huaihua was that this man was married, but a few years ago, because of his master's troubles, the woman broke off the relationship with him.
In recent years, the man opened a restaurant and made money, so the woman came back to him.
If Xu Zhaodi's love was love at first sight, then Huaihua's love was love that grew over time.
Xu Zhaodi didn’t know who the man was, where he lived, whether he was a good person, or whether he had a partner…
But she stubbornly believed that she loved him and that the young man should have a good impression of her.
Huaihua knew everything about the man, but the age difference between them was the biggest barrier between them.
It is uncertain for the time being who will have less difficulty. But Huaihua has the initiative in her hands, while Xu Zhaodi has handed the initiative to someone she doesn't know.
For that man, Xu Zhaodi rejected the young talent that Lou Xiaoe asked her friend to introduce to her.
And she told the introducer that her affairs had nothing to do with the Xu family or the Lou family.
After receiving this reply, Lou Xiao'e had no choice but to give up.
Some people could win without any effort, but they choose to die. No one can do anything about it.
