Siheyuan: Xu Damao's New Life

Xu Damao pedaled his bicycle vigorously, and his heart was filled with excitement when he thought about meeting Lou Xiaoe soon. After riding for half an hour, he finally arrived at Lou's house. Uncle Fu at the door greeted Xu Damao warmly, and the helpers he met along the way also greeted him with a little flattery. (As mentioned earlier, some former servants came to help the Lou family in the name of distant relatives, and I will not explain it again in the future.)

Xu Damao walked and thought, it seems that things are really different from before. In the past, he was just a child of a servant of the Lou family, at most one of the many candidates for the Lou family's son-in-law. This time, he is a future son-in-law, and the treatment is immediately different.

Xu Damao pushed the door and entered the living room. Lou Xiao'e was trotting down from upstairs. Knowing that Xu Damao was coming, Lou Xiao'e had looked out the window countless times. Just now, she saw Xu Damao coming, so she immediately came down to greet him.

"Xiao'e, run slower, don't fall."

"It's okay. Why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time." As he spoke, he had already arrived in the living room.

Xu Damao reached out and scratched her nose. "I'm quite busy today. I'm busy decorating the house and trying to bring my wife home as soon as possible."

"Who is your wife? Who agreed to marry you?" Lou Xiao'e pouted.

"Oh, I wasn't talking about you either!"

"Oh, you are so bad." Lou Xiao'e refused and hit Xu Damao a few times.

Xu Damao pretended to be in pain, "Oh, I can't take it anymore, it hurts so much, someone is trying to murder my husband!"

Lou Xiao'e couldn't stand it anymore. She had never encountered such teasing in her life. She turned away with a blushing face and ignored Xu Damao.

Xu Damao took out the box containing the watch and handed it over. "Here, I bought this gift for you at the department store today. This is our token of love. If you don't want it, I'll give it to someone else."

Lou Xiao'e didn't care to be shy after hearing that. She turned around and took the box. When she opened it, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "Wow, what beautiful watches!" Then she took the two watches in her hands and looked at them carefully, "They are Patek Philippe." Given the conditions of the Lou family, Lou Xiao'e has seen a lot of the world. She even hired private tutors for Russian and English in the past. As for now, it can only be said that the general environment does not allow it.

"How about it, Xiao'e, do you like it?"

"I like it. You put it on me. I want the red one. The blue one is yours." Lou Xiao'e said coquettishly, playing with it in her hand. The red one is slightly smaller and suitable for women.

Xu Damao picked up the tools in the box and asked, "Which watch strap do you want to use? It's a bit cold in winter, so why not use this leather one first?" The watch now has a stainless steel strap, and there is also a leather strap in the box.

Lou Xiao'e nodded, stretched out her hand shyly, and revealed her snow-white wrist.

Xu Damao first replaced the leather strap and then put it on Lou Xiao'e's wrist. Of course, he couldn't help touching Lou Xiao'e's soft hands. They were so white and soft. The hands of this young lady were really pure and tender. They felt different to the touch. (Many authors of courtyard houses with many female protagonists say how white, tender and soft Qin Huairu's hands are. Anyway, I don't believe it. Most women's hands can't reach that level, unless they rarely work. Not to mention that Qin Huairu needs to wash and cook frequently, just say that she works in a fitter's workshop, and her hands must be full of calluses.) Then he changed the strap of his watch and asked Lou Xiao'e to help him put it on. He also stretched out his hand and put it side by side with Lou Xiao'e. The two watches were close together, and the red and blue were particularly conspicuous.

Lou Xiao'e's heart and eyes were filled with sweetness. Although she didn't drink any alcohol, she seemed to be drunk and dizzy as if she was in the clouds.

Lou's mother looked down from upstairs and saw this scene. She covered her mouth and smiled but turned back to her room without disturbing the two young people who were immersed in their sweetness. Seeing Xu Damao being so kind to his silly child, she felt relieved.

This family still dragged her down. Her daughter usually stayed at home alone, unable to go to college or work. When she went out occasionally, she would go out with the daughters of other capitalists. Damao was a good child. They knew each other well and their families were closely connected. She felt relieved when Ezi married into the family. Now that her daughter finally found a good home, Lou's mother was sincerely happy. Thinking of this, Lou's mother couldn't help but wipe away her tears of joy. She rummaged through the boxes and found the heirloom bracelet of the Lou family and gently stroked it. This would be her daughter's dowry.

"Xiao'e, are you hungry? I'll take you out to eat, and then we can go out to play after dinner."

"Just call me Gezi from now on, that's what my parents call me." Lou Xiao'e lowered her head, "Wait for me to get something." Then she ran upstairs. It turned out that Lou Xiao'e heard Xu Damao say that the house was being renovated, and the two watches were not cheap, so she was afraid that Xu Damao had no money, so she ran upstairs to get her own private money.

After a while, Lou Xiao'e came down again in a hurry with a large stack of money. Lou's mother heard the noise and came out to check. Seeing this scene, she shook her head and said, "My daughter is really grown up. She hasn't even got married yet, but she already knows how to subsidize her husband's family."

"Brother Damao gives it to you." Lou Xiao'e stretched out her hand and handed over a large stack of black rice paper.

"Ezi, what do you mean? How can I take your money?" Xu Damao declined.

"Brother Damao, just take it. Isn't our house still under renovation? Besides, we will be a family soon..."

"That won't work either. Your money was also given by Uncle Lou."

Lou Xiao'e was so anxious that she started to cry, "Wow, you are so polite, don't you treat me as your own? Don't you want to marry me? Besides, my dad is not short of money..."

Seeing that Silly Moth was crying, Xu Damao took the opportunity to hold her in his arms, "Who said I don't want to marry you? You can go get the marriage certificate now. Okay, I'll accept it. Don't cry anymore. If you cry, you won't be beautiful anymore, and I'll marry someone else."

Lou Xiao'e finally burst into laughter and said, "Oh, it's so ugly. I'll go wash my face and we'll go out."

Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiao'e's back as she left, and then looked at the pile of money in his hand. It must be nearly a thousand. Is this the joy of being kept by a rich woman? He, Xu Damao, wanted to make this joy come even more intensely!

………………

Lou Xiao'e sat sideways in the back seat, and Xu Damao stared at the car. This silly girl was a little plump, weighing a little over 100 pounds. She had never lacked nutrition since she was a child. Xu Damao had already tested her with her back last time, and next time she would measure the mountains and rivers with her own hands. Xu Damao looked expectant.

It was almost noon, and the two of them first went to Donglaishun to eat mutton hotpot, then went to Beihai Park to skate, and when they were tired, they went to see a movie. Of course, Xu Damao was doing this, and he knew movies by heart, so Lou Xiao'e was seriously eating popcorn while watching the movie, while Xu Damao was seriously taking advantage of the silly moth.

More than an hour later, the movie finally ended. Lou Xiao'e blushed as Xu Damao led her out of the cinema. "Ezi, it's getting late. Why don't we eat outside before going home?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lou Xiao'e blushed. The two of them had specially found a seat in the corner of the back row. Xu Damao had been touching her since the beginning of the movie. Many parts of her body were touched by Xu Damao, even... However, Lou Xiao'e was not angry. After all, they were going to get married soon.

"Then let's go eat at Lao Mo's. I just happen to have two meal coupons here." Lao Mo is a Soviet-style restaurant, with pure Big Brother-style decoration and dishes. Even the service staff came from there. It was mainly established to entertain Big Brother engineers and entourage who came to the country for guidance. Of course, it is also open to the public, but meal coupons are required.

"Okay, then let's go eat at Lao Mo." Lou Xiao'e had been to Lao Mo several times, but she never thought about the price issue. As the daughter of Lou Bancheng, money was never something she needed to consider.

The two of them walked into Lao Mo side by side. Xu Damao took out a meal coupon and handed it to the waiter at the door and gave him some tips. The meal coupon was redeemed by Xu Damao from the system.

The restaurant was decorated in a magnificent style with a strong Soviet style. Xu Damao ordered two steaks cooked to medium rare, and then bread, milk, salad, foie gras, caviar, beetroot soup and dessert, and a bottle of red wine. The two chatted while waiting for the dishes to be served.
