Siheyuan: The beauty Xueru Huizhen, the birds are jealous

"What are you doing? How disgraceful!" Yi Zhonghai, the usually highly respected manager, couldn't help but shout at them. He frowned, looking at the two people's miserable appearance, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

"Uncle Yi, you have to make the decision for me!" Sha Zhu panted and pointed at Xu Damao and shouted. Seeing this, Xu Huizhen and Yan Bugui also stepped forward to persuade them, but both of them were very emotional and neither of them was willing to give in.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing!" Yi Zhonghai waved his hand, signaling the two to stop, "This matter needs to be resolved at the whole institute meeting!"

A general meeting of the whole courtyard was held soon, and the residents gathered in the courtyard. Xu Damao and Sha Zhu stood in front of everyone, with bruises on their faces. Yi Zhonghai cleared his throat and began to ask about what happened.

"Xu Damao, why did you want to fight with Sha Zhu?" Yi Zhonghai's voice was serious and powerful.

"He...he scolded me!" Xu Damao stammered in defense.

"Scold you? Then why don't you fight back?" Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu immediately perked up and retorted.

"I...I..." Xu Damao was speechless for a moment.

"Alright, stop quibbling!" Yi Zhonghai interrupted Xu Damao, "Your fight has already brought a bad influence to the whole hospital. I've decided to punish you two to sweep the yard for half a month!"

When Sha Zhu heard the punishment, he immediately lowered his head to show his acceptance. Xu Damao was unwilling, but seeing the strange looks from the people around him, he could only swallow his anger.

"Also, I have something else to say." Yi Zhonghai changed the subject and turned the topic to Xu Damao's marital problems. "Xu Damao, I've also heard about you and your wife. How can you not care about the relationship between husband and wife?"

When Xu Damao heard this, his face suddenly turned ugly. He was about to make a few excuses, but when he saw people around him whispering, he had to shut up.

"Xu Damao, husband and wife should live in harmony. If you ignore feelings like this, you will only make outsiders laugh at you." Yi Zhonghai said earnestly.

The residents also expressed their agreement, believing that Xu Damao's behavior was indeed inappropriate. Xu Damao listened to everyone's discussion and could not help but feel angry. But he knew that it would be useless to defend himself at this moment.

"Okay, let's end today's meeting here." Yi Zhonghai waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse. Xu Damao and Sha Zhu also returned to their rooms.

Xu Damao sat by the bed, feeling frustrated and angry. He felt that he was looked down upon by everyone in the hospital and bullied by Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he decided to continue spreading rumors about Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu in the steel mill to vent his hatred.

"What a sin! How could Xu Damao be so cruel to such a good person like Widow Zhao?" Aunt Zhang sighed and shook her head while picking vegetables.

"Yes, Widow Zhao works hard from dawn to dusk every day, and keeps the house and outside in tidy. What's wrong with Xu Damao?" Uncle Li couldn't help but interrupt.

Widow Zhao has always been a synonym for hard work and dedication in everyone's eyes. After she married Xu Damao, she devoted herself to the family, doing housework, taking care of her parents-in-law, and working hard without complaint. However, such a virtuous woman was betrayed by her husband.

Xu Damao stood at the door of his house, facing the neighbors who came to question him, he seemed a little at a loss. He stammered and said, "I... I have no choice. There must be a successor in the family. She secretly got an IUD, so how can we have a child?"

As soon as these words came out, the residents who had originally sympathized with him began to waver. They looked at Widow Zhao, hoping that she could give an explanation. However, Widow Zhao just glared at Xu Damao angrily and said in a trembling voice: "You...you are talking nonsense! I have never done such a thing!"

Seeing that Widow Zhao refused to admit it, Xu Damao became even more arrogant. He sneered and said, "Then show me the evidence to prove that you don't have an IUD."

Widow Zhao was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed at Xu Damao's nose and swore, "If I do such a thing, I, Widow Zhao, will die a miserable death! I swear!"

However, Xu Damao was dismissive of her oath. He sneered and said, "What's the point of swearing? You have to show evidence."

Widow Zhao looked at Xu Damao's rogue face, and her heart was filled with despair. She knew that no matter how she defended herself, Xu Damao would not let her go. So she took a deep breath and made a difficult decision.

"Okay, I agree to divorce." Widow Zhao's voice was firm and resolute.

Xu Damao was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Widow Zhao would agree to divorce so readily.

He was somewhat caught off guard. However, what shocked him even more was Widow Zhao's next request.

"But I want half of the property and savings." Widow Zhao said coldly.

Xu Damao was furious when he heard this. He pointed at Widow Zhao's nose and cursed, "You cheap woman! Why do you want to share my property?"

Widow Zhao fought back without showing any weakness: "Why can't I get a share? How much have I contributed to this family over the years? Why can you just divorce me? Not only do I want a share of the property, I also want you to lose face in the village!"

Xu Damao's face turned red with anger at what Widow Zhao said. He shouted angrily, "You bitch! I...I'm not done with you!"

Widow Zhao is Xu Damao's wife, an ordinary housewife.

She did not give birth to any children for Xu Damao, but was determined to divide his property.

She sat in front of the shabby wooden table and said to Xu Damao with a firm look in her eyes: "I want half of the house and half of the savings." After hearing this, Xu Damao's face instantly darkened. He didn't expect Widow Zhao to be so greedy.

"Are you kidding?" Xu Damao's voice trembled a little, he couldn't believe his ears.

"I'm not kidding. This is my request." Widow Zhao's tone left no room for doubt.

Xu Damao stood up angrily, pointed at Widow Zhao's nose and said, "Why do you want me to do this? What have you done for this family? Why do you want my house and savings?"

However, Widow Zhao was not intimidated. She smiled coldly and said, "If you don't agree to my request, I will expose all your scandals and make you lose your job."

Xu Damao's face froze. He knew what Widow Zhao was talking about. He did have an improper relationship with other women. This was the pain in his heart and his weakness. He didn't expect Widow Zhao to be so cruel and threaten him in this way.

The news quickly spread in the alley, and Yi Zhonghai, Yan Bugui, Xu Huizhen and others all knew about it.
