Siheyuan: The romantic and suave Xu Damao

"Really? Then I want to see if what you said is true or not."

In fact, Yan Zhaodi was 99% convinced that Xu Damao was telling the truth, but she just didn't want to admit it.

"It's just a meal, you can't be so stingy."

"Okay, I'll take the bet. It's just a meal!"

"Okay then. It shouldn't take more than half an hour. Your village loudspeaker should be announcing it."

Xu Damao was very confident and continued chatting with his young wife in a random manner.

"Where do you live? I can go over there and have a meal this afternoon."

Xu Damao raised his eyebrows and smiled maliciously.

"Don't be too happy! The results haven't come out yet, and it's still unknown who will win or lose. You're thinking about going to my house for a free meal now, but that's a bit too hasty."

The young wife rolled her eyes in annoyance and was speechless at his confident attitude.

"Haha, isn't this obvious?"

"By the way, there are still twenty minutes left. If the horn doesn't sound after twenty minutes, you win!"

Xu Damao rolled up his sleeves and looked at the watch on his wrist, mainly to show off...

"See? The tallest house is my home."

Yan Zhaodi walked onto the road and pointed at the tallest house in the distance. It was about two stories high. Its green brick walls were very conspicuous and were hidden by several large trees.

"Oh, they're a wealthy family! Your husband's family must be very rich, right?"

"What kind of big family is this? It's just that the house was built a little higher before, and there were more fields. But now there are not many."

"What category were they divided into? Rich peasants?"

"Correct!"

"I can tell you, the higher the class division, the worse it is. Poor peasants and workers have the highest status."

"Really? There was an old man in our village who was classified as a poor peasant. He didn't want to accept it, but later he applied for it from many sources and was finally given the class of lower-middle peasant."

"That's because the old man in your village is ignorant..."

At this point, Xu Damao couldn't help but think of his future father-in-law, Lou Bancheng. He would definitely be classified as a big landlord and capitalist. He would probably be walking on thin ice and on the edge of the abyss all day long, fearing that he would encounter an accident one day...

The two talked about life and family, and Xu Damao learned that his young wife was not from the village, but had married here from far away.

Her father-in-law died early, and her husband worked as a carpenter in the city. Two years had passed, but her belly was still not moving. Her mother-in-law was extremely anxious, and her temper was getting worse and worse.

"Ahem, actually I have also encountered this situation. There was a colleague in our factory who also had no children. He even blamed his wife for not being able to conceive."

"After going to the hospital for a checkup, I realized that there was something wrong with me..."

"If you feel wronged, you can go to the hospital for a check-up. If it's really not your problem, you can come back with the hospital's examination report."

"If it's really not your fault, then show the hospital's examination report to your mother-in-law and let her know that it's her son who has the problem!"

"But...but the hospital is in the city, the journey is long, and it will cost a lot of money to go to the hospital for examination. I don't have money, and my mother-in-law can't read..."

"Then I really don't have any good solution..."

Xu Damao spread his hands helplessly, indicating that he could do nothing to help.

"Oh my god, it's timed out!"

The two were chatting about everything, and Xu Damao subconsciously looked at his watch, and suddenly realized that the half-hour bet time agreed upon with his young wife had long passed.

"Hehe, turns out I won."

The young wife Yan Zhaodi couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, I lost, but I didn't lie to you. I really am the projectionist. Maybe the village chief thought it was too early to use the loudspeaker to announce it, so he delayed it a little bit."

"I see. In fact, I believed you from the beginning."

"I'll admit defeat. Pick anything you want from my car!"

"Hey little brother, don't be like this. It was just a joke. How could I really take your things?"

"No, you have to pick one. Otherwise, if it gets out, people will say that I, Xu Damao, am a scoundrel who doesn't keep his word."

Xu Damao grabbed Yan Zhaodi's wrist seemingly casually and led her to the back basket of his bicycle.

When the wrist was held by the young and handsome Xu Damao, Yan Zhaodi's face turned slightly red like a ripe apple.

"Come on, there aren't many things in there, just pick one at random."

Ignoring Yan Zhaodi's refusal, Xu Damao lifted the oilcloth of the back basket and motioned for Yan Zhaodi to pick something.

"This lotus leaf contains two pig's trotters, and the other lotus leaf contains a roast chicken. Here are two dresses, you can pick one too."

"You even have a skirt?"

Yan Zhaodi's eyes lit up as she stared at the two blue and green dresses in the cage as if she had seen a treasure.

"Why, do you like these two dresses? If I were you, I would also choose these two dresses. Just take the smaller one. Why are you so thin? You are from a wealthy family in the village. Don't you have enough food to eat?"

"No way, I just don't have a big appetite. I really can't accept this dress."

Yan Zhaodi kept refusing, but she was no match for Xu Damao. Xu Damao forced the dress into her hands as if by magic.

"Okay then, thank you. Come to my house for dinner this afternoon. I'll make you something delicious."

"I've got it in mind! But I have nowhere to go right now, so why don't I go to your house and rest for a while?"

"Well... well, just follow me."

When Yan Zhaodi heard Xu Damao's request, her face turned slightly red like the sunset. After hesitating for a moment, she finally agreed to Xu Damao's somewhat excessive request.

"It's good to be handsome and elegant!"

Xu Damao sighed, pushed the cart and walked into the village with Yan Zhaodi.

Fortunately, it was afternoon and I didn't meet anyone.

Following Yan Zhaodi into the house, Xu Damao hid his bicycle behind a tree. Even if someone passed by the door, it would be difficult for them to find Xu Damao's bicycle. After that, he went into the main room to drink tea, hehe...

"Sister Yan, try on that dress and you will look as beautiful as a fairy."

Xu Damao had a sly smile on his face as he instigated Yan Zhaodi to change her clothes.

"Really? It's just that the weather is a little cooler now..."

"It's not too cold right now. Go change into it and see if the size is right. If it's too small, change into the blue one."

"Okay... I'll go change, you... you are not allowed to come into this room."

Yan Zhaodi looked at Xu Damao with some worry and shyness.

"Don't worry, I'm a gentleman and I would never do that kind of thing!"

Xu Damao had a face full of righteousness.
