Siheyuan: Full of Love

Lou family.

"Brother You, you came to me so early, is there something wrong?"

While Lou Bancheng was having breakfast, You's father came to visit.

Father You said slowly, "I just came here because I have something I want to ask your brother."

"Uncle You, isn't Feng'er here?" Lou Xiao'e asked from the side.

Father You smiled and said, "She didn't go to work today. She took a day off and went out to play with her boyfriend."

"Damn Feng'er, you value women over friends!" Lou Xiao'e muttered in a low voice.

Then she ran back upstairs. She was going to change into the steel mill's work clothes and go find You Fengxia.

"Brother You, come on, let's talk in the study!"

The first meeting between the You family and the Lou family began.

"You came here in such a hurry, there must be something wrong. Tell me, what's wrong?"

Lou Bancheng took out tea leaves and made a pot of tea.

"Who said I was in a hurry to come here? No hurry, let me have a cup of tea first."

Father You looked relaxed. He half leaned on the sofa, leisurely poured tea from the teapot into the teacup and sipped it slowly.

"Well! Not bad, I'll take some with me when I leave!" Father You nodded with satisfaction.

"You can take everything with you, but just tell me what's going on. If you don't, I'll leave! I have to go to the steel mill!"

Lou Bancheng was a little anxious. Seeing that the other party was sitting there quietly and not talking about business, he knew that something big must have happened.

Father You looked at Lou Bancheng and said with a smile, "Hey! It is said that you, Lou Bancheng, have deep skills in cultivating qi and have a big vision. My You family is always inferior to you."

"It seems that you and I are the same. We have never encountered anything that would hurt us, so naturally we wouldn't care."

After hearing what Father You said, Lou Bancheng was no longer anxious. "Okay! As for me, I will just accompany you for tea today. I won't go anywhere."

"So that you won't look down on me!"

"Haha, Brother Lou, I won't beat around the bush. I came here today to ask you for a favor!"

"you say!"

"What do the higher-ups say to us?" Father You asked, pointing his finger above his head.

"What else can I say? Even though we are capitalists, we are still affiliated with the red family!" Lou Bancheng said in surprise.

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Father You shook his head and said, "You didn't tell me the truth. Even I can see the situation in the past few years. Don't say I didn't notice it."

Lou Bancheng was silent for a while, then said, "It's hard to say."

"It's hard to say, but I have to tell you what you think. Anyway, I have some ideas. I have already thought about the future path, but I'm missing something!"

"what?"

"determination!"

"Then tell me first, how do you want to go in the future?" Lou Bancheng asked.

Father You smiled and said, "I came to ask you a favor, how come you are asking me?"

"Besides, my path may not be suitable for you!"

After careful consideration, Lou Bancheng sighed and said to You's father: "It's not optimistic!"

Father You thought to himself, as expected, it seems that I have to make up my mind.

"Since it's not optimistic, what do you think?"

"What good solution can I have? I can only take things one step at a time. Let's withdraw the shares of the steel mill first."

Father You suddenly asked, "How is your daughter's partner?"

"Him?" Lou Bancheng asked in confusion, "Why are you asking about him?"

Father You didn't say anything, just drank a sip of tea and waited for Lou Bancheng to answer.

"You should know Xu Damao. He lives in the same compound as your daughter's boyfriend, Zhang Dazhuang, and they both work in the steel mill."

Lou Bancheng sighed and continued, "I just hope they can live their whole lives in peace."

Father You put down his teacup and said with a smile: "You are wrong, Zhang Dazhuang is my son-in-law now!"

"What? He has become your son-in-law? When did it happen?" Lou Bancheng asked in surprise.

"Today he and my daughter Feng'er went to get their marriage certificate."

Lou Bancheng stared at him for a long time and said, "No! Logically, you shouldn't be so anxious! What happened?"

Father You also put away his smile and said seriously: "Brother Lou, our two families have no choice but to let our two daughters find two working-class partners."

"Why are we looking for them? You and I both know the answer. I won't say more. In the past, they couldn't even get into our house!"

"But times have changed. There are some things that are beyond our control!"

"I was luckier because I found Zhang Dazhuang as my son-in-law, and he also pointed out three paths for me to take."

Lou Bancheng felt very complicated after hearing this. "I was still thinking about getting in touch with Zhang Dazhuang. When I heard what Ezi said to me when he came back, I felt that this person was not simple."

"I didn't expect you to be so straightforward. I've become your son-in-law so quickly!"

Father You was very happy to hear this, as it meant that his vision was ultimately higher than Lou Bancheng's.

Every time I came to the Lou family's study, Lou Bancheng's attitude was always higher than mine.

I finally got a win this time. Hmm! When they hold the wedding banquet, I will give her more dowry.

"I'm lucky this time!"

After saying this, Mr. You stopped talking and continued to drink tea from the cup.

While drinking tea, Lou Bancheng was thinking about how to make him tell him the three options and what price he would have to pay.

The study fell into silence for a moment, with only the sound of two people pouring and drinking tea.

The pot of tea was soon empty.

Lou Bancheng was the first to break the silence and said, "I'll go make another pot!"

Father You put down his teacup and said, "Forget it, let's stop talking here today. You go ahead and do your work. I'll come back another day."

Seeing that You's father was about to leave, Lou Bancheng couldn't force him no matter how anxious he was, and the situation was not yet very serious.

The two walked out of the study together. At the door, Lou Bancheng wanted to ask what the three roads were, but for some reason, he just couldn't open his mouth.

Father You saw his difficulty and said with a smile: "I know that you, Lou Bancheng, have great reputation, so I won't embarrass you. If you want to know, you can ask my son-in-law."

"I will definitely not stop him, but you can't make things difficult for him." After saying that, he turned and left.

Father You thought to himself, I wanted to tell you, but I wouldn’t tell you unless you asked me.

I won this round completely. Not only did I know the attitude of the people above me, but it also helped me make a decision early.

It would also allow Lou Bancheng to talk to his son-in-law again.

Before, the Lou family and the You family helped each other, although it was not a free lunch.

After all, we have been in this relationship for many years.

I have already decided to retire from the world, so I've told you so, it doesn't matter what the cost is.

But you, Lou Bancheng, hesitated about this matter and insisted on talking to young people.

Your son-in-law is eyeing half of your family's property.

Who knows if that guy was joking.

Lou Bancheng looked at his departing back, thoughtful.

The price I paid for fighting with the young man would surely be much higher than hearing it from him, right?

He decided to ask Lou Xiao'e to find time to invite Xu Damao and Zhang Dazhuang over for dinner.
