Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

After getting the confirmation, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but tremble.

This is caused by excitement.

He suppressed his excitement and forced a smile, "Da Mao, are you still awake? Have a couple of drinks?"

How smart is Xu Damao? When he saw that it was Yi Zhonghai, he guessed his intention.

He said calmly, "No, I'm trying not to drink alcohol lately."

He doesn't like alcohol.

I just went to ask Cao Liang to have a drink!

However, he has been drinking less recently, which is restricted by Lou Xiao'e.

Yi Zhonghai felt a little embarrassed when he heard this and didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment.

Xu Damao said calmly: "Master Yi, is there anything else?"

After a moment's silence, Yi Zhonghai no longer cared about his face.

He sighed and said, "Da Mao, we are both in the same boat. You should know that people will laugh at you for not having children. To be honest, I came here to ask you if you have found a secret recipe to cure that."

"If so, please help me and I will reward you."

Ah!

Xu Damao sneered and said, "I say, Yi Zhonghai, you helped Sha Zhu to bully me a lot in the past. I am now like this, and it is also your credit. How dare you come to me and ask for help?"

Sha Zhu has been bullying the courtyard for years, why is everything okay with him?

The reason is that Yi Zhonghai suppressed the matter.

What Xu Damao said is absolutely correct.

"...Alas, I already know I was wrong."

Yi Zhonghai's attitude was very sincere.

For the sake of the children, I even lost face.

Xu Damao asked curiously, "Yi Zhonghai, I'm very curious. Don't outsiders say it's Aunt Yi's problem? Why are you coming to me for medicine now?"

Yi Zhonghai was silent.

Xu Damao knew that they were all lies and the one with real problems was Yi Zhonghai.

The fact that he came to ask for medicine also proved that he was determined to give it his all.

Xu Damao became even more curious, "Yi Zhonghai, if you really have your own child, what are you going to do with Zhien's child?"

People in the hospital are still very optimistic about Yi Zhien.

He is polite, filial and hardworking.

Even though Xu Damao and Yi Zhonghai had a feud in the past, he never made things difficult for Yi Zhien.

"... Raise them together, of course."

Xu Damao curled his lips, somewhat unconvinced.

After all, Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a while before saying this.

Besides, the couple are old, how can they have so much energy?

"Forget it. I don't bother to care about these things. I just want to ask you, what are you going to pay me?"

Xu Damao asked.

"How about a hundred dollars?"

Yi Zhonghai asked tentatively.

Xu Damao curled his lips. One hundred yuan was only enough for his medicine for a week.

Yi Zhonghai guessed that he was not satisfied, and continued: "Two hundred?"

"five hundred."

Xu Damao opened his mouth loudly, "Give me five hundred and I'll ask them if they will sell it to you."

five hundred?

Yi Zhonghai's eyes widened.

He felt a little angry. He thought Xu Damao was deliberately blackmailing him.

And it’s just asking, you may not necessarily get it.

After a moment's silence, Yi Zhonghai said, "Five hundred is fine, but only if you can get the medicine."

Xu Damao also knew that this was unrealistic, so he simply nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask for you another day."

"Does the medicine really work?"

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but ask.

Xu Damao said disdainfully: "If you don't believe me, you don't have to. I didn't beg you to do it, and he may not sell it to you! If I didn't have a good relationship with him, I wouldn't be able to get it."

This is true.

If Meng Xiaoxing hadn't done it for Lou Xiao'e's sake, he probably wouldn't have gotten it.

"Okay, I want it."

Seeing Xu Damao like this, Yi Zhonghai also believed it a little.

He was unwilling to give up even a glimmer of hope.

Xu Damao added: "Yi Zhonghai, let me remind you first, this medicine is not cheap, and you have to take it for at least half a year. If the situation is serious, it will take longer. You should think it through."

"How many?"

"Fifty-one sets. Two sets a week."

"what!"

Yi Zhonghai widened his eyes in shock.

Fifty-one sets, two sets a week, and it will take more than half a year.

This must be several thousand, right?

Although he had some savings, it was not a small amount.

"Do you want love?"

Xu Damao didn't have time to talk nonsense with him.

Although there is a reward of 500 yuan, what if Cao Liang doesn't agree?

"Okay, as long as it works, fifty is fifty."

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth.

Compared with offspring, money is not that important.

Why did he save so much money? Isn't it for retirement?

As long as you have your own children, it is worth spending any amount of money.

"Wait!"

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he closed the door.

...

Early the next morning.

Qin Huairu returned to her hometown.

Just after noon, Qin Huairu came to the courtyard with a girl about eighteen years old.

"Sister, your yard is so big!"

This girl was Qin Jingru. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she looked around curiously.

Ever since Qin Huairu married into the city, the girls in her village have been extremely envious.

Qin Jingru is one of them, and she dreams of marrying into the city.

Otherwise, at her age, she would have become a mother long ago.

"Don't look around, they're probably already waiting."

Qin Huairu smiled and shook her head.

Oh.

Qin Jingru retracted her gaze, but couldn't help asking, "Sister, do you know Brother Mingyu? He is also from your steel mill."

Brother Mingyu?

Qin Huairu shook her head and said, "I don't know him. What does he do?"

"I heard he was from the purchasing department."

"As for the purchasing department, ask Cao Liang. He should know."

"Who is Cao Liang?"

Qin Huairu reminded: "He won't tell you, my family and his family don't have a good relationship."

"Oh."

Qin Jingru responded with disappointment.

Qin Huairu took Qin Jingru home and then went to Sha Zhu's house.

"Silly Zhu, I've brought the person back, are you ready?"

"That is required."

Sha Zhu patted his chest, went back to the house with a smile and took a piece of meat, estimating it to be about two kilograms.

Banggeng and his friends can have meat again.

Qin Huairu was happy and took Sha Zhu back to her home.

the other side.

Xu Damao and his wife came to Cao Liang's house.

Xu Damao smiled and said, "Liangzi, I came to have a drink with you."

Lou Xiao'e went to chat with Meng Xiaoxing.

Cao Liang said unhappily, "We just had lunch, what's the point of drinking? Let's talk about it after dinner."

"That's fine."

Xu Damao nodded with a smile, and then asked: "Do you want to call Monkey to join us?"

"Go and shout."

"Don't worry, Liangzi, I have something to tell you."

Cao Liang looked at him.

Xu Damao looked around and when he saw that no one was around, he whispered, "Liangzi, Yi Zhonghai came to see me last night about the medicine."

Cao Liang was surprised and asked, "Oh? Is it really Yi Zhonghai who has the problem, not Aunt Yi?"

"It should be, otherwise he wouldn't come to me."

Xu Damao smiled and said, "Liangzi, let me tell you, I asked Yi Zhonghai for a reward of 500 yuan, and we will split it in half when the time comes."

Cao Liang asked, "You didn't tell him about me, did you?"

"That is required."

Xu Damao patted his chest and said, "Who am I, Xu Damao? How could I tell him without your consent?"
