Siheyuan: The romantic and suave Xu Damao

"Sister Yang, I can give you a hundred dollars for this large cloisonné incense burner."

Xu Damao looked at the exquisite incense burner in front of him, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, those two small ones only cost fifty dollars. How can this big one be worth that much? You don't have to give so much."

Sister Yang quickly waved her hands to decline. She knew in her heart that although this big incense burner was beautiful, it was definitely not worth so much money. Of course, this was just Sister Yang's own idea.

"It's only because you know these things, little brother, and you're an honest person. If it were someone else, they wouldn't tell me so much. At most, they would buy all my stuff and the dog for ten or twenty dollars!"

Hearing this, Sister Yang couldn't help but sigh that she had met Xu Damao. When she thought about how she had taken him in, she had never thought about getting any reward, but just had some other thoughts in mind. Now seeing that he was so sincere, she couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in her heart.

"Oh, I can't lie to Sister Yang. After all, Sister Yang took me in when I had nowhere to live. Otherwise, I might have frozen to death in the wilderness. Next time if I pass by this road again, I hope Sister Yang will take me in."

Xu Damao smiled wickedly, his words full of ridicule.

Sister Yang's face suddenly turned red after hearing this. She turned away a little embarrassedly and refused to take Xu Damao's 100 yuan.

Sister Yang whispered, with a hint of shyness in her voice.

Finally, the two were deadlocked, and Xu Damao had to compromise and said, "Then give me back the fifty yuan." He stuffed the fifty yuan into Sister Yang's hand, then picked up the big incense burner and placed it on the open space beside him with satisfaction.

Xu Damao continued to take out fifty yuan and stuffed it into Sister Yang's hand.

"I guess these things are worth a lot of money."

Xu Damao pointed at the small rosewood stool and the birdcage on the ground beside him and spoke.

"Don't worry! Little brother, just take these things and don't give me money. If you insist on giving me money, I will really get angry!" Sister Yang frowned and pretended to be angry.

"Okay, thank you Sister Yang. Do you think we can move these miscellaneous things into the house, or just leave them in the yard?" Xu Damao asked.

"Let's leave it in the yard for now. I still have to clean up this room in the morning. What's the matter? From the sound of your voice, you seem to be leaving?" Sister Yang looked at him and asked.

"Well, it's time to go back. The factory's projection equipment is still in this room. We have to return it to the factory for our mission."

Xu Damao responded while gently patting the basket on the back seat of the car.

"Okay, then I'll help you load all your stuff into the car."

Seeing this, Sister Yang stepped forward to help, but was stopped by Xu Damao.

"Don't bother you, Sister Yang. I can handle it myself."

"And these are two pieces of women's clothes I bought in the city. I think they are quite suitable for Sister Yang, so I'll give them to you."

Xu Damao took out two folded women's clothes from the basket, shook them out, and tried them on Sister Yang.

"Not bad, it fits well. It will definitely look good on you, Sister Yang."

"No, no, no, little brother, you take this thing from me at a high level, I can't take this dress."

"Hey! I'll take these things to the city to sell, I'm sure I can make some money. Look how pretty this dress is, with green dots and red flowers. Sister Yang, just take it!"

Without saying a word, Xu Damao hung the clothes on the clothesline in the yard, and then quickly loaded all the items into the car. Then he said goodbye to Sister Yang, got on his bicycle, rode out of the yard, and sped towards the city.

After walking for a distance, Xu Damao transferred all the things in the car into his personal space.

Since I got up early today at Sister Yang's house, cleaning the side room only took about an hour. By the time I returned to the city, it was already past two in the afternoon.

It was getting early and I didn't have any mobile phones, computers or other electronic products to kill time, so I might as well take Lou Xiao'e with me to go shopping. After all, it felt pretty good to have a pure and beautiful girl by my side.

He went to the publicity department of the steel rolling mill, put away the projection equipment, then changed his bicycle and headed straight to Lou Xiao'e's residence.

Lou Xiao'e's home is a three-story Western-style building, which is very common in Dongcheng District. This is also due to the strength of her father "Lou Bancheng". After all, "Bancheng" is not a title that everyone can bear.

When he arrived at the gate, Xu Damao was not at all nervous. He rode his bike directly to the gate without getting off the bike. He put one foot on the ground to steady his body and put the other foot on the pedal.

The other hand began to bang on the door.

"anyone there?"

The knocking on the door and Xu Damao's loud shouting attracted the attention of everyone in the yard.

Not long after, the door creaked open, and a woman in her thirties, dressed in plain clothes and elegant, appeared in front of him and walked out slowly.

"Young man, who are you looking for?"

The woman asked with a smile on her face.

"Hello, Auntie! My name is Xu Damao, and I'm Lou Xiao'e's friend. I happen to be free today, so I wanted to ask her out for a walk."

Xu Damao replied politely.

"I see. Well then, I'll go in and tell the lady. Please wait a moment. Do you want to come in and have a cup of tea... or..."

The woman invited warmly.

"No need, I'll just wait for her here."

Xu Damao quickly waved his hand to express his gratitude, indicating that he didn't mind waiting.

Time passed by, and soon there was a sound of light and cheerful footsteps. As expected, the person who came was Lou Xiao'e herself. She walked hurriedly, her face filled with joy.

"Are you back from the movie?"

As soon as Lou Xiao'e saw Xu Damao, she couldn't wait to ask.

"Yeah, it just ended. Let's talk while we walk!"

Xu Damao suggested.

"okay."

Lou Xiao'e readily agreed and looked at Xu Damao without concealing her admiration at all.

"You look like you just woke up?"

Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiao'e and asked with concern.

"Hey, how did you know that?"

Lou Xiao'e touched her hair curiously, feeling a little confused.

"Look at your messy hair."

Xu Damao smiled, stretched out his hand, and gently combed Lou Xiao'e's hair.

Lou Xiao'e did not avoid it, but shyly turned her head and glanced towards her own window. She thought to herself: I wonder if someone is standing upstairs and looking at me at this moment? Thinking of this, her cheeks flushed.
