Comfortable life in Siheyuan

"Xu Damao, what on earth do you want to do? Banggeng has just started working, can you stop bullying him all the time?"

Although Qin Huairu was very angry, she still pretended to be weak out of habit.

"Qin Huairu, you are the one who is trying to take advantage of me, Xu Damao. I am the one who is at a disadvantage in finding a job for your son. You really think I can't control you, right?" Xu Damao glanced at Qin Huairu and said contemptuously.

Qin Huairu knew she was in the wrong, so she had to lower her attitude and begged in a low voice: "Da Mao, tell me the amount of money, I'll write you an IOU first, and I'll pay you back when I have money in the future. I really don't mean to take advantage of you, it's just that this is the only savings in our family."

After hearing what Qin Huairu said, Xu Damao sneered and said disdainfully: "Have you ever paid back the IOU you wrote? Do you think I'm a fool? You can fool me as you please!"

Xu Damao walked around Qin Huairu, looking her up and down. Then he continued, "To be honest, Sister Qin, at your age now, I really have no interest in you. But over the years, you have played tricks on me so many times, and I just can't swallow this breath."

"Da Mao, don't joke with me at my age. The child is already that big. If someone finds out, how can they hold their heads up high in the future?"

"But you never refuse these benefits. Now when it's your turn to pay, you always fail to deliver!" Xu Damao became furious when he said this.

"So what do you want? You draw a path and I'll follow it." Qin Huairu simply said.

"That's what you said. In the evening, when I get home from get off work, let's go to the vegetable cellar." Xu Damao was not polite at all and made arrangements immediately.

"You are dreaming. There are so many people in our courtyard now. If we are discovered, we two girls will not be able to get married. This is absolutely not possible. The risk is too great. I can't take this risk."

Xu Damao looked at her suspiciously, and after thinking for a while, he felt that what she said made sense.

"Then what good idea do you have? I can't let myself suffer any loss." Xu Damao said unhappily.

"I'll write you an IOU and give you five dollars a month for three years. Together with the money I paid last time, I paid three hundred for this temporary job, which is not a small amount."

While the two were still arguing here, a group of three people carrying fishing rods and buckets were walking towards this side.

"Zhu Zi is lucky today. The fish he caught are quite big!" Liu Qingshan joked with a smile.

"What do you mean by luck? I just have strong strength. Among the three of us, I'm the best at fishing!" Sha Zhu was not humble at all.

"Isn't that Qin Huairu and Xu Damao? Why are these two together?" Liu Qingshan inadvertently glanced at the corner in front.

"You don't know this, right? Banggeng has entered Xu Damao's cinema. There are some deep things going on here." Shazhu had an unfathomable look on his face, which stunned the other two.

At this time, Xu Damao and the other two also saw Sha Zhu and the other two. No one spoke, and Qin Huairu looked a little uncomfortable.

Watching the three people walk away, Qin Huairu didn't want to beat around the bush anymore. She asked directly: "Do you agree with what I just said? If not, forget it. At worst, Banggeng can find another job. But you also took my money, so you have to pay it back when the time comes."

After saying that, Qin Huairu looked at Xu Damao calmly.

Xu Damao was silent for a moment, but finally compromised.

Xu Damao returned to the backyard and as soon as he entered the house, he saw Sun Xiaoyan staring at him with unfriendly eyes.

"What are you doing? Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?" Xu Damao felt a little guilty, but he didn't know why.

"Where did you go just now?" Sun Xiaoyan asked in a cold tone.

"I didn't do anything. I just went to the toilet. When I came out, I happened to meet Sha Zhu and the others coming back from fishing, so I looked at them a few more times." Xu Damao lied without hesitation.

"You are kidding me. You can't get along with any of them. None of them will like you." Sun Xiaoyan said with disdain.

"Really? I didn't talk to him. When others started talking to me, I just leaned over and took a few glances." Xu Damao added.

"You never tell the truth. Let me ask you, what's the matter with Banggeng's job? How can she, a widow, send her son to the cinema?" Sun Xiaoyan stared at him unkindly, as if she was going to start scolding him if they disagreed.

Xu Damao was silent for a moment and was about to speak with a wry smile, but Sun Xiaoyan spoke up again, "Think about it first, or you won't be able to come up with it later."

"Wife, look at what you said. How could I lie to you?" Xu Damao was speechless for a moment.

"Haha! Don't think I don't know about your bad deeds. I just don't want to mention them. Remember, if you dare to mess around in front of my house and ruin my son's reputation, I will never forgive you." Sun Xiaoyan warned.

"No, wife. She just asked me for a favor, so I arranged a temporary job for her. She's been my neighbor for so many years, and now she's asking for help, so I can't refuse her."

"How can you be so kind? Do you think I'm a fool?" Sun Xiaoyan now has a formal job and two half-grown sons, so she is very confident.

"That's really the case. She also gave me a hundred yuan. I thought that since I have a good relationship with our leader, it shouldn't cost much, so I did it." Xu Damao wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling nervous.

"Haha, you would do anything that has no benefit. I know exactly what kind of person you are, Xu Damao."

"I really have nothing left. There are only a few dozen dollars left, all in my pants. How could Qin Huairu have any money? I would like to make some money, but I can't get any money out of her." Xu Damao said with a wry smile.

"Okay, let's just leave it at that. You'd better remember this lesson in the future. I tell you, if you mess around outside and get sick, I will castrate you." After saying that, Sun Xiaoyan picked up the kitchen knife and chopped hard on the chopping board.

Seeing Sun Xiaoyan walk into the room, Xu Damao felt sad. If he hadn't been relying on his two sons to support him in his old age, this family would have broken up long ago. Why would he still need to care about her mood?

In Liu Qingshan's backyard, a group of people were sharing the fish. Looking at the ten pounds of fish in the bucket, all the children in the room were laughing.

"Uncle, I want to drink the fish soup you made."

Xixi is a big girl now. Maybe she has never lacked appetite since she was a child. Liu Qingshan often makes fish soup and bone soup in turn. The child is now almost as tall as Liu Qingshan, nearly 1.7 meters tall.

"If you want to drink fish soup, go find your Uncle He. The one he makes is better than Uncle Nan Yi's." Sha Zhu said somewhat unhappily when he saw Xixi going to Nan Yi.

"Uncle He, I want to eat the fried fish you make. Forget about the fish soup, I drink it often." Xixi said bluntly.

"Liu Xixi, do you have any manners? How can you talk like that?" Feng Yu said angrily while holding Xiaowu in his arms.

Liu Xixi pouted and hid aside, looking at her father pitifully.
