Chapter 169 The Lou Family Talks
After Lou Xiao'e finished talking about the letter, she leaned back in her seat, closed her eyes and stopped talking. Seeing this, Ah Jiu stopped talking and drove quietly. When she got back to the Lou family, she got out of the car and walked into the luxurious villa without waiting for Ah Jiu to open the door. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her mother chatting with her father. She walked up to them politely and greeted the Lou couple.
"Dad, Mom!"
"Xiao'e is back. How is Xu Damao from your aunt Tao's family? Is he as good as she said?" It was natural for Lou Tan, the mother, to speak up about such matters concerning her daughter's family.
"He's quite good, and he looks very energetic, but he's a bit slick and seems a bit unreliable! Today..." Lou Xiao'e recounted how she spent time with Xu Damao today.
"Young people are all like this! Once you get married and have children, you will become more stable. Starting a family and building a career is nothing more than this!" Maybe Lou Tan's IQ is low, or the life of a rich wife for many years has worn away the mind of the former eldest daughter of the Tan family, or maybe she is confident that Tao Ying, the former child of the family, would not dare to deceive her as the head of the family. After listening to Lou Xiao'e's words, Lou Tan not only did not criticize Xu Damao, but instead advised her daughter.
"Yes, mother is right! By the way, when I came back, someone gave me a letter!" Although Lou Xiao'e did not object to her mother's words, she was unwilling to talk more about Xu Damao. After Lou Tan finished speaking, she impatiently changed the subject and took out the letter from her bag and put it in front of Lou Bancheng.
"A letter for you?" Lou Bancheng picked up the thick letter and checked the envelope. He found that there was no signature, so he took out the letter. After reading the contents of the letter, Lou Bancheng did not speak. He glanced at Lou Xiaoe and asked casually:
"Xiao'e, besides the letter, did that person say anything else?"
"The man stuffed the letter into my hand and ran away. He didn't do anything else!" Lou Xiaoe shook her head.
"Have you read this letter?" Lou Bancheng continued to ask.
"No!" Lou Xiao'e still shook her head
"Well, the content here is related to you, take a look!" Lou Bancheng handed the letter in his hand to Lou Xiao'e.
"The matter of the letter has nothing to do with me. The Lou family has raised me for twenty years. I know what to do! I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to my room first. Dad, Mom, you guys chat." After reading the letter, Lou Xiao'e also understood: her father suspected that the matter of the letter was a play performed by someone else because she didn't want to marry Xu Damao.
Lou Xiao'e wanted to explain it clearly, but then she thought that her father probably didn't care about the identity of the messenger. He also didn't care whether the content of the letter was true or false. He just wanted her to obey his instructions and marry Xu Damao honestly.
After figuring this out, Lou Xiao'e directly said what she had originally wanted to convey through Ah Jiu. Then, regardless of Lou Bancheng's reaction, she went upstairs to her room to rest in a bored manner.
"This child is getting more and more rude as she grows older! Old Lou, what's written in the letter?" Lou Tan wanted to ask her daughter about her and Xu Damao, but she didn't expect Lou Xiao'e to leave directly.
"What they said about Xu Damao is nothing but nonsense. It is probably that some family that Xu's family had offended wanted to retaliate against them after knowing that he was dating our daughter." Lou Xiao'e's guess was correct. Lou Bancheng was only concerned about their marriage and didn't care about anything else.
"Who is this person? He has no manners. He doesn't even understand the principle of 'It is better to destroy ten temples than to ruin a marriage', and he actually did such a dirty thing. But old man, Xiao'e is our only daughter, and we still have to pay attention to her marriage. Otherwise, why don't you find someone to investigate Xu Damao? It will put your mind at ease!"
Lou Tan read the contents of the letter. Although she did not believe it, she still felt that she should learn more about Xu Damao's character as it concerned her daughter's lifelong happiness.
"It's different now than it was in the past. You can't investigate this matter just by saying so! I'm a capitalist, and I'm looking for someone to investigate workers who are three generations of poor peasants. What do you think? Are you still thinking this is the Republic of China?" Lou Bancheng directly rejected his mother's proposal.
"Old Lou, are you hiding something from me? The contents of the letter can't be true? Xiao'e is our daughter no matter what. It's pitiful enough for her to marry the son of our servant. If Xu Damao is really like what he said in the letter, then her second half of life will be ruined!" After many years of marriage, Lou Tan knew her husband Lou Bancheng. Seeing him making excuses, she knew there must be something going on.
"Alas! As early as last year when I was planning to find a husband for Xiao'e, I sent people to conduct a detailed investigation on suitable candidates, and one of them was Xu Damao. Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you! The contents of this letter of complaint are all facts, and there are even many that are not recorded. I know of five widows who have had relationships with Xu Damao. Not to mention those half-closed doors in the city, almost..." Lou Bancheng was seen through by Lou Tan, and he no longer concealed it, and told her everything he had investigated before.
"What? You knew that Xu Damao was not a good person, but you still wanted to marry Xiao'e to him. Old Lou, Xiao'e is your own daughter, are you crazy?" Looking upstairs, Lou Tan lowered her voice and angrily scolded Lou Bancheng
"I think you are crazy. You actually dare to yell at me! If there is no other way, who would be willing to marry the daughter they have worked hard to raise for twenty years to a scumbag like Xu Damao? Don't you see the situation outside? Now it is the poor who are in charge, and the poorer the more glorious. Capitalists like us are not much different from rats in the stinking ditch! Didn't you see that Xiao'e couldn't even go to college because of her class background?"
Lou Bancheng could "understand" that his daughter was resentful of him. After all, he still needed her to contribute to the Lou family. Now, the person next to him actually dared to get angry with him, and Lou Bancheng immediately scolded her with a cold face.
"But you are a meritorious official who helped them, an enlightened gentleman, and a national capitalist!" Lou Bancheng had accumulated power for a long time. When Pu got angry, Lou Tan was frightened. However, for the sake of her daughter, she still said timidly.
"You know how many people I invited for the New Year this year! In the end, only a handful of people came to the banquet. If they didn't need me, I guess those few people wouldn't have come. This is not the time when the country was just liberated. People don't need us anymore! Do you understand? People should know the times!"
"I went to a meeting in the city a while ago. Do you know what happened? The leaders of the city spoke one by one. To sum it up, it's just one sentence: According to the instructions of the Central Committee, capitalism must be completely eliminated in the shortest possible time. 'Instructions of the Central Committee', 'completely eliminated'! Haha... Those comprador bureaucrats were shot or imprisoned. As for the big landlords in the countryside, they were often dragged out for criticism. You are tough, come and tell me, which one do we choose?"
Lou Bancheng was worried that Lou Tan would interfere with the relationship between Lou Xiaoe and Xu Damao, so he suppressed his anger and said, half persuading and half threatening,
