The life of a villain in a courtyard

After being reminded by him, Lou Xiao'e also realized that Xu Damao was a real villain. How could he not bear a grudge against Lou Zhenhua for setting him up and sending him to prison? How could he not take revenge after he got out?

Besides, the situation is quite tense now. If you are reported, you will be severely punished even if you don’t die.

I have to go back and discuss it with my family.

"Don't leave, you don't want to eat anymore?"

"If you don't want to eat it, take it. And lock the door for me. I need to go back quickly."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Su Yun looked at the table full of delicious dishes and shook his head. Lou Xiao'e's impatient temper had not changed at all. Xu Damao was not going to be released tomorrow, so why was she in such a hurry?

"Liu Guangtian, come here."

"What's up, Su?"

Liu Guangtian followed Su Yun into the main room, and Su Yun stuffed a small half of a roast chicken wrapped in oil paper into his hands. He couldn't finish it anyway, so he might as well give some to the two brothers to be a good person.

Liu Guangtian's eyes lit up with joy. This was meat! He hadn't seen meat for almost two months.

"Take it, don't let anyone see it, take it back and share it with Liu Guangfu."

Liu Guangtian was so happy. Su Yun was so nice that he thought of him when he had meat. He was even better than his own brother. Liu Guangqi had never given him meat.

Besides being happy, he was also a little curious about where the roast chicken came from.

Pheasant? The pheasants near the city were basically eaten up. You had to be very lucky to see one, or you had to go to the vegetable market to buy it, which cost a lot of money, and you also needed meat coupons. A person only had two taels of meat coupons a month, and this half chicken was almost one pound.

Although he was a little curious, he didn't ask. Everyone has their own secrets, so why should he ask so many questions? The most important thing was to have meat to eat.

Liu Guangtian wrapped the roast chicken and stuffed it under his clothes, then turned around and went home.

After returning home, Liu Guangtian called Liu Guangqi.

"What do you think this is?"

“Roast chicken!”

"Shh! Keep your voice down. Don't let mom and dad hear you."

Liu Guangtian hit him on the head, and Liu Guangfu immediately covered his mouth. If Liu Guangtian hit him on the head, the roast chicken would not fall into his mouth.

"Go get some soy sauce from the kitchen."

Liu Guangfu obediently stole some soy sauce from the kitchen. The roast chicken itself has flavor, but the two of them have a stronger taste, so they need to add some soy sauce.

"It's so fragrant!"

The two of them locked the door and feasted inside.

"Brother, your roast chicken is so delicious, where did you get it from?"

"I just met Brother Su in the yard, and he gave it to me."

"What are you two doing? Why are you locking the door?"

Liu Haizhong was knocking on the door outside.

"I'm coming."

The two brothers hid the roast chicken and wiped their mouths to make sure it was not disclosed before running to open the door.

"Dad, what's up?"

"What's that smell in the room? It smells so good."

Liu Haizhong walked into the house and took a few deep breaths, then smelled the scent of roasted chicken. Where did these two guys get the money to buy chicken?

"It's next door. I just saw Sister Xiao'e bought a lot of good things."

Liu Haizhong nodded and sat on the chair.

"Dad, what do you want to talk to us about?"

"When you two are free, keep an eye on Su Yun."

"what?"

The two brothers looked at each other and didn't know why Liu Haizhong asked them to do this.

"What? Just go if I tell you two to go. If you find this kid doing something he shouldn't be doing, tell me. Got it?"

"understood."

"Dad, why does our family do this?"

Liu Guangtian became bolder and asked about the doubts in his mind.

"This guy is a thorn in the flesh. If I can find something to hold against him, he won't dare to provoke me."

……

"dad!"

"What's wrong? Xu Damao still doesn't agree to divorce?"

Seeing his daughter so anxious, Lou Zhenhua thought the plan had failed.

"Xu Damao has already agreed. When he comes out, we will go to the street office to get a divorce."

"Then why are you in such a hurry?"

"Someone just reminded me that Xu Damao will definitely take revenge on our family when he gets out. What should we do then?"

Lou Zhenhua walked back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back. He had really forgotten about this matter. Xu Damao had been his son-in-law for six years, and his mother had been a servant in the family for more than ten years. She knew their family very well. What would he do if he was released and reported his family?

He suddenly caught a glimpse of the telegram on the table. It was sent by their relatives in Hong Kong Island. When the city was liberated in 1949, one branch of the Lou family went to Hong Kong Island, while Lou Zhenhua's branch stayed in the mainland. Now the branch in Hong Kong Island is developing well, and they want their family to come to Hong Kong Island to develop as it is more friendly here.

Thinking about the difficulties he was facing now, Lou Zhenhua finally made up his mind to leave Beijing.

"Xiao'e, go back to the courtyard and pack up the things at home, especially the dowry. Don't leave any of it to Xu Damao."

After Lou Xiao'e left, he told his family to start sorting out the finances. At the same time, he picked up the phone and made a call. He planned to sell all the remaining properties of his family in Sijiu City.

It was already very late when Lou Xiao'e returned to the courtyard, and most people in the compound had already gone to bed.

After returning to the house, Lou Xiao'e took out a small key and opened a locked small box.

If anyone saw what was in the box, they would be shocked. There were dozens of small yellow croakers and many silver dollars. These were the dowry that Lou Zhenhua gave to Lou Xiao'e.

He took out the things and counted them, and found that four gold bars and more than twenty silver dollars were missing. They were all taken secretly by Xu Damao to the black market and exchanged for money.

Even though Lou Xiao'e had a good temper, she couldn't suppress her anger. If Xu Damao were here, she would definitely fight with him again.

You are unkind and I am unjust. Since you have done such a thing, don't blame me, Lou Xiao'e, for not caring about the love we have had as husband and wife for so many years.

Thinking of this, she opened the closet and found a small locked box, then took out an axe from the kitchen and chopped the box open.

Inside the box was the private savings that Xu Damao had saved over the years. With her financial resources, she could not afford to look down on the few hundred dollars in the box, so she turned a blind eye to Xu Damao's secret saving of money.

But now it was different. She didn't plan to leave him a penny! If the title deed wasn't there, she would have even planned to sell the house and not even leave Xu Damao a place to stay.

The next day, Lou Zhenhua sent his driver to deliver a divorce agreement to Lou Xiao'e. He thought about it last night and felt that it was not safe. After all, Xu Damao had only agreed verbally and it was easy for him to go back on his word.

So Lou Xiao'e went to the detention center again.

"Why are you here again? Didn't I promise you that I would divorce you when I got out?"

"This is a divorce agreement, please sign it."

Xu Damao couldn't help but get furious when he saw the extremely unfair property division in the agreement, but when he thought of his current situation, he had to suppress his anger. He was now under someone's roof and had to bow his head.

"Okay, now you are satisfied!"

"No problem."

……

"Dad, what are you doing?"

Lou Xiao'e returned home and found a group of people busy at home, and furniture was being moved out one by one.

"Xiao'e, we have to prepare to leave Sijiu City and go to Hong Kong Island."

"Why is it so sudden?"

"It's not sudden. Your uncle sent us a telegram a while ago asking us to go to Hong Kong Island to develop. I was still hesitant, but your divorce this time made me determined to leave here."

"Dad, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, our family wouldn't even be able to stay in Beijing."

She knew what kind of person her father was. If he really wanted to leave, he would have left more than ten years ago. Why wait until now? Isn't it hard to leave his hometown?

"This has nothing to do with you. In the final analysis, it's all my fault. I didn't see Xu Damao's wolfish ambitions at the beginning, which led to this situation. If I could do it again, I would never marry you to Xu Damao, a bastard, and let you suffer any injustice."

"I'm not wronged."

Lou Xiao'e threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

"Xiao'e, we will be leaving Sijiu City in five days. If you have anything you want to do or someone you want to meet, go and meet them now. We don't know how long it will take for us to come back."
