Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Lou Xiao'e said suspiciously, "Isn't it just ruining Sha Zhu's marriage? This is at most a flaw in moral character, how can it ruin his whole life?"

"Xu Damao, tell me the truth. Have you ever hidden anything from me or done anything unscrupulous?"

Xu Damao didn't dare to admit it, and quickly denied it:

"I would never do anything so unscrupulous as to ruin Sha Zhu's marriage. If this gets reported, my reputation will be ruined. How can I get a promotion and a raise in the future?"

Lou Xiao'e said with a hint of disdain: "Do you really want to be promoted to an official?"

Xu Damao rolled his eyes and said, "Isn't this nonsense? That worker doesn't want to be an official?"

"If my reputation is ruined, no leader will trust me or promote me."

"Ezi, you must help me!"

Lou Xiao'e frowned slightly and said in embarrassment: "I don't know anyone in the newspaper office, how can I help you?"

Xu Damao said without hesitation: "You don't know anyone in the newspaper, but your father definitely does."

"Wife, please ask your father for help."

Lou Xiao'e was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay! You come with me!"

Xu Damao shook his head and said, "I can't go. I only asked for half an hour's leave and I have to go back immediately."

Lou Xiao'e said unhappily, "Okay, you go back to work, I'll pack up and go find my father."

Xu Damao said with gratitude: "Wife, thank you so much! It is my greatest blessing to marry you in this life!"

"Virtue!" Lou Xiao'e gave him a charming look.

……

"Attention, fellow workers. Here is a penalty notice. Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu from the third workshop have bad personal ethics and corrupt morals, which has brought a very bad influence to the factory."

"After research and decision by the factory leaders, Yi Zhonghai's fitter grade was downgraded to Level 2 and he was fined half a year's salary, and Qin Huairu was fined three months' salary."

"I hope all workers will take this as a warning and not commit crimes or violate factory rules or national laws."

When Qin Huairu heard the punishment result on the radio, it was like a bolt from the blue. She felt dizzy and sat down on the ground, muttering to herself:

"Without a salary, how can I support my family? Are you trying to kill me?"

Because of the previous incident, her family's savings have already been emptied, and now the whole family is struggling to make ends meet. Now her salary is deducted for three months. Isn't this like asking for her life?

Thinking of this, Qin Huairu was overwhelmed with grief and couldn't help but burst into tears.

When everyone saw Qin Huairu crying bitterly, instead of coming forward to comfort her, they made sarcastic remarks.

"Widow Qin, you deserve this. Who told you to repay kindness with enmity and flirt with other men?"

"Widow Qin, you've done so many outrageous things, but I've only confiscated three months' salary from you. Just be happy about it!"

"That's right. If you make a mistake, you must admit it. If you are beaten, you must stand at attention. This is the punishment you deserve. Why are you sad?"

"That's right, the leaders are still too kind. A vicious woman like Widow Qin should be fired directly!"

"That makes sense. If this vicious woman stays in the factory for one more day, the reputation of the factory will be damaged..."

"It's unlucky for me to be under the same sky with this vicious woman."

Qin Huairu turned a deaf ear to everyone's sarcasm and thought about how to survive the three-month crisis.

The first person Qin Huairu thought of was Yi Zhonghai, but Yi Zhonghai was still detained in the police station and would probably be sentenced. Li Guifang hated her so much that she would definitely not lend her money.

Excluding Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu thought of Xu Damao. After all, they had slept together before. If the other party dared to watch her die without helping, she would threaten to make their relationship public. She didn't believe that Xu Damao was not afraid.

At lunch time, Qin Huairu finally found an opportunity to be alone with Xu Damao.

Xu Damao looked at Qin Huairu with a wary look, and said indifferently: "Widow Qin, what do you want from me?"

Xu Damao is in fear now, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with Qin Huairu anymore.

Qin Huairu smoothed the hair by her ears, gave Xu Damao a charming look, and said in a tender voice:

"Da Mao, we are already in this relationship, can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?"

Xu Damao's heart was filled with alarm, and he said in a cold voice: "Widow Qin, don't talk nonsense. I, Xu Damao, am a clean person. I have nothing to do with you."

"Widow Qin, are you okay? If not, I'm leaving."

Qin Huairu said with a sad face: "Da Mao, I'm sure you've heard the broadcast. My sister was fined and her salary for three months was confiscated. I'm penniless now, and I have three children at home waiting for food. Can you lend me some money?"

Xu Damao said with disgust: "Whose sister are you? Don't try to make connections. I have nothing to do with you."

"As for borrowing money, that's even more impossible. Who doesn't know your reputation as a widow Qin who borrows money and doesn't pay it back?"

Qin Huairu threatened coldly: "Xu Damao, aren't you afraid that I will tell Lou Xiao'e about our affairs?"

Xu Damao was panicked when he heard this, but he quickly calmed down and sneered:

"Widow Qin, you are so smelly now, do you think anyone will believe what you say?"

Qin Huairu said angrily: "Xu Damao, you'd better not force me, otherwise we will be together forever."

Xu Damao sneered: "Do you have the strength to fight to the death with me?"

Qin Huairu gnashed her teeth and said, "Xu Damao, I'll ask you again, will you lend me the money?"

Xu Damao smiled calmly: "Even if you ask ten questions, I still say the same thing, no loan!"

Qin Huairu said with a determined look on her face: "Xu Damao, you forced me to do this. I will go to Lou Xiao'e after get off work and confess our relationship."

Xu Damao said calmly: "Whatever!"

"Xu Damao, don't regret it!"

"I, Xu Damao, will never regret anything I do."

After saying this, Xu Damao left without looking back.

Qin Huairu was so angry when she saw Xu Damao leaving. Although she spoke resolutely, she did not dare to really look for Lou Xiaoe.

Xu Damao was right. Her reputation was ruined now, and Lou Xiao'e might not believe what she said.

Another reason was that she was afraid that Lou Xiao'e would make a big deal out of the matter, and then she would be convicted of being unfaithful to her husband.

Although everyone now says that she is fickle, there is no evidence. If she goes to Lou Xiao'e to confess, it would be equivalent to handing the evidence to her.

If the matter gets out of hand, Xu Damao might be overwhelmed, and then she would be too ashamed to face anyone.

She still has three children to raise and doesn't have the courage to fight to the death with Xu Damao.

When Xu Damao returned to the office, his face turned pale. He didn't expect Qin Huairu to dare to threaten him.

Although he said that he was not afraid of Qin Huairu going to find Lou Xiao'e, he was actually worried to death.

She knew Lou Xiao'e's character very well. She was noisy and believed everything she heard. If Qin Huairu really went to find her, she would probably let the whole world know about it.

"Just in case, I have to give Lou Xiao'e a vaccination in advance."
