Siheyuan: Father Yi Zhonghai and Sister-in-law Lou Xiaoe

Chapter 164: Gifts are required when asking for favors

The First People's Hospital of Sijiucheng.

"Sister-in-law, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

When Xu Xiaoran and Yi Bufan arrived at the hospital, they found that Lou Xiao'e had just come out of a ward inside.

"Oh, nothing. I just had some stomach discomfort and came for a checkup."

"You are..."

Lou Xiao'e glanced at Xu Xiaoran and Yi Bufan's faces.

"I'm here for a checkup, too. Sister-in-law, wait a minute. I'll come out and tell you when I'm done." Xu Xiaoran said as she looked at Yi Bufan: "Bufan, stay here with me, I'll check first."

"Didn't Xu Damao come to find you?"

Yi Bufan asked after Xu Xiaoran went in.

"No, maybe I really want a divorce."

Lou Xiao'e looked indifferent.

"No, he told me the day before yesterday that he went to apologize to you after he buried Jia Dongxu, and he also said that he was afraid you would be scared when you came back."

Yi Bufan was smiling.

"Apologize? Who cares?"

Lou Xiaoe curled her lips.

When I went home these days, I just saw Lou Bancheng drinking. Maybe it was because of the Red Star Steel Mill incident. I felt that I had become completely insignificant and worthless, and I felt uncomfortable.

Naturally, Lou Xiao'e did not mention Xu Damao's matter.

Besides, I really don’t know what to say.

"That's right. I don't care. If he doesn't kowtow three times and nine times, I won't forgive him."

Yi Bufan spoke seriously, but it instead caused Lou Xiaoe to burst into laughter.

"I am the Buddha, and I still need to bow three times and kowtow nine times."

Lou Xiao'e covered her mouth and laughed.

"Well, of course you're not the Buddha, you're a princess!"

"It is not something that ordinary people can desecrate."

"Three bows and nine kowtows are light."

Yi Bufan talked nonsense in a serious manner.

"Your mouth..."

"Sweet, you've tasted it."

"Slippery-talker, not serious."

"I seem to be okay when I'm serious. You even begged for mercy."

"I won't tell you anymore, what's wrong with Xiao Ran? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lou Xiao'e looked around and decided that she couldn't continue this topic with Yi Bufan.

"Xiao Ran was at dinner yesterday..."

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to go settle accounts with my brother when I get home today!"

Xu Xiaoran came out and interrupted Yi Bufan.

"I wanted to go look for my brother last night, but Bufan said it was too late."

"I'll go find him at their factory later!"

"Where did he hit you? I'll help you hit him back."

Xu Xiaoran came over, grabbed Lou Xiaoe's hand, and looked concerned.

"No, it's okay. Everything is fine."

"There's no need to look for it in the factory. This kind of thing is so shameful."

Lou Xiao'e smiled, she didn't want to make the matter worse.

"Then I'll go home and deal with him. If that doesn't work, I'll ask my dad to deal with him. He was the one who rebelled. Last time... well, anyway, he shouldn't have done it."

Xu Xiaoran didn't want to bring up Xu Damao's fooling around outside anymore.

This is even more shameful.

"Ahem, I think we should give Brother Damao some time on this matter."

"What if I apologize today?"

"But, this attitude must be sincere, otherwise it cannot be easily forgiven."

Yi Bufan also gave his own suggestions.

"Yes, that's right, I support it!"

"We can't let him get away with it like this."

Xu Xiaoran also had a confident look on his face.

(Xu Damao: This is my biological sister!)

At this moment, Xu Damao was exchanging cigarettes with Liu Haizhong.

It's a daily operation.

"Come on, smoke!"

"Hit mine!"

"Let's take turns."

"Okay, I'll take yours first, you take one from me and I'll take one from you."

Then they each put a cigarette between their ears, lit each other's cigarettes, and puffed smoke together.

"I saw you just came out of the office. Do you have something to do with your boss so early in the morning?"

Since they all lived in the backyard, and Xu Damao had always been against Yi Zhonghai, Sha Zhu and their group, he naturally had a good relationship with Liu Haizhong, the second uncle.

"Last night, Sha Zhu asked me to ask when I can be the chef. I am helping in the kitchen now."

"I went to ask Li Huaide."

Liu Haizhong said this and greeted the other workers.

"Help the stupid pillar?!"

Xu Damao refused to do it when he heard this. He said, "I treat you as one of my friends, but you go to help my enemy!"

"Don't think too much."

"Last time, Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu were arrested for speculation, and these two guys actually exposed Yi Zhonghai."

"It seems that the relationship between Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu is not as good as before."

"We just want to win them over and have them help us in the future."

Liu Haizhong felt that his own power was growing stronger day by day.

If he uses Xu Damao to win over his brother-in-law Yi Bufan, then what role will Yi Zhonghai have in the Siheyuan?

"That's not bad, but there's no way I'm going to help that idiot Sha Zhu."

"You just went to see Li Huaide, what happened?"

"Let Sha Zhu be the chef?"

Xu Damao and Sha Zhu, the hatred between them will definitely last forever.

"No, Li Huaide just said he would mention it to other leaders."

"No specific time was given for Sha Zhu to take charge of the cooking."

“I think it should be soon.”

A few smoke rings came out from his bangs.

"Did you take anything with you when you went?"

When Xu Damao heard what Liu Haizhong said, he thought it was not fast at all, he was just saying it perfunctorily.

"No, I'm just asking, what should I bring?" Liu Haizhong was stunned as soon as he finished speaking, and looked up at Xu Damao: "You mean, I should bring some gifts or something?"

"That's nonsense. You went to see Li Huaide not to ask questions, but to ask for favors."

"If your purpose is just to ask a question, then of course there is nothing to it and people will just respond casually."

"As for when Sha Zhu will be the chef again, no one will pay attention to it at all."

"But if you give a gift, it's different. They will ask about it right away. If the gift is good enough, you can hear the announcement this morning that Sha Zhu will be the chef again."

Xu Damao took several puffs of the cigarette, otherwise half of it would have been blown away by the wind.

"So what you mean is, I should buy a pack of cigarettes, bring a bottle of wine or something?"

Liu Haizhong listened to Xu Damao's words and it seemed to be right.

"Yes, when you go to a leader to do something, you have to let him see that you are different."

"Why else would I help you? If I look at you for one more second, I'd think you're affecting my breathing."

"Speaking of buying gifts, I have to go to the department store later."

Xu Damao thought about buying Lou Xiao'e a piece of clothing, or a box of facial oil or something, because giving a gift would show his sincerity.

"Then I'll take a look after I'm done."

Liu Haizhong felt that it was not cost-effective to spend money to buy gifts to help Sha Zhu do this.

"Go find Shazhu and ask him to buy the gift. You have to pay for it yourself."

"Yi Zhonghai spends money on Sha Zhu because he has no son, but you do have a son."

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he threw away his cigarette butt, stepped on it and left. He had other important things to do today.

Even if you really want to divorce, you have to find a better reason.

It seemed that Xu Damao had already made up his mind that it was impossible for him to continue being with Lou Xiaoe.

On the one hand, Lou Xiao'e hindered her own promotion.

On the other hand, Lou Xiao'e is infertile.

(Xu Damao: I don’t care, it’s Lou Xiao’e’s problem anyway, I have no problem!)

And there are huge surprises waiting for Xu Damao in the hospital.
