Comfortable life in Siheyuan

Xu Damao returned that night. He wanted to find Lou Xiao'e to ask her about the matter, but when he got home he found that no one was at home and Lou Xiao'e was not at home.

In an instant, Xu Damao had a bad feeling.

After a commotion, all the dowry that Lou Xiao'e brought with her when she got married disappeared. Xu Damao felt furious and his face turned red.

After a long while, Xu Damao finally calmed down, opened the door and went back to his parents.

Along the way, Xu Damao felt a little absent-minded.

……

Looking at Xu Damao, who was pushing his bicycle and looked a little discouraged, Xu's father and mother hurried over to him.

Xu Damao entered the house mechanically.

"What's wrong, Damao? Did you have another fight with Xiao'e?" Father Lou asked with a stern face.

"Why is she still arguing with you? She's already being merciful by not divorcing us. She's just an old hen that doesn't lay eggs." Mother Xu spoke harshly and it was obvious that she was not someone who was easy to get along with.

"Mom and Dad, Lou Xiao'e may divorce me. No, it should be certain." Xu Damao said.

"What's going on? What happened between you two? Did those women outside come home to make trouble? I told you to stop messing around, but you just wouldn't listen." Father Xu said angrily!

"Don't be anxious, listen to what your son has to say!" Mother Xu was still protecting her son.

Xu Damao told him everything about the quarrel between them the day before yesterday.

"That means there is nothing wrong with Lou Xiao'e, but the one with the problem is you, Xu Damao." Xu's mother looked at Xu Damao in astonishment.

"I'm not sure either. I think it's my problem," said Xu Damao.

"Does the Lou family know that you have health problems?" Father Xu lit a cigarette and asked woodenly.

"After get off work the day before yesterday, I had someone take her to the hospital for a check-up. Yesterday at work, she was arranged to go to a small factory nearby to show movies. When I came back from get off work today, Lou Xiao'e and her dowry were all gone." Xu Damao said gritting his teeth.

"Then this was done by the Lou family. Do you know what the hospital's examination report said?" asked Xu's father.

"I don't know. The doctor didn't tell me anything," said Xu Damao.

"Then what should we do?" Xu's mother was at a loss at this moment.

"Don't worry about the Lou family for now, let's go to the hospital first!" Father Xu looked at Xu Damao, feeling a little disappointed.

Xu's mother glanced at Xu Damao and also sighed deeply.

The three members of the Xu family came out of the hospital with dejected faces and went straight back to the courtyard.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, the third aunt saw the three people from the Xu family. However, when she saw that the three people looked unhappy, the third aunt nodded and went back to the house.

The Xu family members didn't say hello to the people in the yard. They just nodded when they saw each other and went straight into the house.

"Xu Damao, what do you think? It's unlikely for you to continue living with Lou Xiao'e in your current situation." Father Xu closed the door and started chatting with Xu Damao.

"I don't want to get divorced. It won't be easy for me to find someone in the future in my situation. If I divorce Lou Xiao'e, I will never find anyone better than her." Xu Damao doesn't want to give up now. He knows that he can't have children, so how can he find someone in the future? What kind of girl would want to find a man who will have no children?

"Let's not talk about whether the Lou family agrees or not. What will you do when you are old? Yi Zhonghai will never have a peaceful life just to provide for himself in his old age." Father Xu looked at Xu Damao and said.

"Then what do you tell me to do?" Xu Damao looked at his father dejectedly.

"Your dad will help you find someone to take care of the child. As long as you train him well, maybe the child can still have the surname Xu in the future." said Xu's father.

Xu Damao thought about it carefully and felt that it was a good idea. But when he thought of Lou Xiao'e, he felt a little unwilling.

"What about the Lou family? I don't want to give up just like that. After those two old guys passed away, the Lou family's wealth originally belonged to my Xu family, and now it's gone." Xu Damao said with a gloomy face.

"What can we do even if we are unwilling? We can't defeat them now." Father Xu sighed.

Thinking about the Lou family's wealth, the three members of the Xu family fell into deep thought.

"I think we should get a divorce amicably. I'll go and complain to them and ask for compensation." Xu's mother turned around and said.

"Yes, if we can't use force, we have to use soft tactics. Just say that Damao can't bear to leave Xiao'e and doesn't want to be separated from her, so he wants some pension money!" Father Xu also said.

Even if Xu Damao was unwilling, what could he do? After all, the Lou family's wealth did not belong to him, Xu Damao.

"Then let's go to the Lou family and talk as soon as possible. Let's lower our posture first. Damao, you must admit your mistake when you go there tomorrow. Do you understand?" said Xu's father.

"Yes, admit your mistake when you get there, kneel there and cry miserably. Just say that you can't bear to leave Xiao'e. We will tell you the rest." Xu's mother also gave a reminder.

"Okay, I got it." Xu Damao slept on the sofa tonight.

Several members of the Xu family are calculating villains, but they are also able to distinguish between the pros and cons and know how to make choices.

……

Early in the morning, the three members of the Xu family went out to the Lou family without having breakfast.

In the living room of the Lou family, Xu Damao knelt in front of Lou's father, crying and saying sorry to Lou Xiao'e, and he was reluctant to be separated from Xiao'e.

"Old Xu, it's better for Damao and Xiao'e to separate. Let's part ways in peace, don't you think? There's nothing we can do about Damao's situation, and Xiao'e is still so young, she can't be childless for her whole life." Father Lou sat on the sofa and spoke to Father Xu earnestly.

"Mr. Lou, I know it was Damao who let Xiao'e down. Our Xu family is brought shame upon. I'm sorry to Xiao'e, I..." Xu Damao started crying halfway through Xu's father's words.

"Dad, Mom, I don't want to be separated from Xiao'e. I love Xiao'e. Xiao'e, Xiao'e, I was wrong, I was really wrong. Please don't leave me." Xu Damao's crying made several people from the Lou family in the room sick.

If he was just infertile, I might feel sorry for him, but those widows and young wives, thinking of this, Lou Xiao'e said: "Xu Damao, do you think I don't know about your romantic debts? How many women have you had outside over the years? Do you want me to tell you one by one? I will not live with you, you can find whoever you want to live with."

Father Lou didn't want to talk any more, so he asked directly, "Tell me, how can we get a divorce?"

When Father Xu heard this, he knew that the Lou family didn't have the patience to argue with them, so he quickly said, "Master, we don't want anything. We just want you to help Damao. Can you find a doctor to treat him? We have to treat him even if it means we lose everything. We can't let our family line die!"

What a guy, he keeps saying "no", but it's worse than asking for money!

"We don't know any experts in this field. How about this, you guys get a divorce first, and I'll find someone to try." said Lou's father.

When Mr. Xu heard this, he knew that what he said was inappropriate, and he lowered his head and winked at Xu Damao.

Xu Damao understood.

"Dad, Mom, I don't want to divorce Xiao'e. I don't want to divorce."

In an instant, the people from the Lou family didn't want to talk anymore.

Father Lou glanced at Mother Lou, and Mother Lou turned around and went into the room to get an envelope.

"Here is 1000 yuan. If you go to get a divorce today, this money will be considered as my payment for Damao's medical treatment. If not, I will give this money to someone in need." Father Lou made it clear and spoke directly to the Xu family.

The three members of the Xu family looked at each other and knew that this was already the limit. If they continued to make trouble, it would not be about money anymore. They hurriedly said, "Da Mao, go and get a divorce from Xiao E today. A forced marriage is not sweet. Eh."

Xu Damao had his household registration book and marriage certificate with him, and the two got divorced soon after.

The three members of the Xu family also left with the money.
