Father Lou snorted coldly and glared at Mother Lou. "I didn't think highly of Xu Damao from the beginning. I knew he was a cunning man. You were just soft-hearted and were confused by what Xu Damao's mother said. Now you've got your daughter in trouble."
At that time, Lou's father had not yet handed over the shares of the steel rolling mill. Xu Damao's mother worked for Lou's family and had frequent contact with Lou's mother, and they had a good relationship.
It just so happened that the Lou family had a bad capitalist background, so they wanted to find a working-class partner for Lou Xiao'e. Anyway, their family was rich, so Lou Xiao'e wouldn't suffer any loss. When Xu Damao's mother found out, she tried her best to promote her son.
But Lou's mother was easily influenced, so she arranged for the two children to try blind dating. Xu Damao was good at saying things that made Lou's mother and Lou Xiao'e very happy, and with his mother's instigation, Lou's mother agreed to the marriage.
Lou's father didn't like Xu Damao and didn't agree with the marriage. He thought Xu Damao had a pointed face and was not a good match.
But after the two women were captured, he felt that Xu Damao was the best, and he couldn't persuade them, so Lou's father had to agree.
Now, look what happened, he chose a man from an extinct family as his son-in-law.
Lou's mother was also dissatisfied, "Then you are blaming me. You didn't object at the time."
"Besides, there's nothing wrong with him except that he can't have children."
Father Lou slammed the table, "Isn't that enough? What will you do with your daughter when she grows old without a child? Will she be eaten up by others? All you do is flatter others. What have you ever accomplished? I told you long ago that Xu Damao is no good. When have you ever listened to me?"
Lou's mother also felt guilty at this time, but she still refused to admit defeat and said, "The fact that someone can flatter others shows that he has a quick mind and can get along well."
"Being successful? How could you see that Xu Damao was successful? I got him a job as a projectionist. It's been so long now, but has he made any progress? He's always chasing after the bosses in the factory and flattering them. Who would respect him? In this era, getting practical things done is what matters. What's the point of being able to talk big?" Speaking of this, Father Lou became even angrier.
Seeing her parents were about to quarrel, Lou Xiao'e quickly intervened, "Dad, Mom, please stop quarreling. No one expected this result. Li Qinghe even told me to divorce Xu Damao as soon as possible and that our whole family should go to Gangcheng to hide."
When Lou's mother heard what Lou Xiao'e said, she became even angrier. "God will punish you for persuading people to divorce. Li Qinghe is not a good person either."
Since ancient times, people have encouraged reconciliation rather than divorce. It is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy a marriage. No one would encourage people to divorce.
Father Lou originally picked up the water cup and wanted to take a sip, but when he heard what Mother Lou said, he got angry and stopped drinking the water, banging the water cup on the table.
"You have long hair but little knowledge. You know nothing. This is far-sighted. What are you waiting for if you don't divorce a woman who has no descendants? Are you going to be eaten up by her descendants? Who will inherit our family in the future? Do you want Xiao'e to lie in bed and wait to die when she is old?"
Lou's mother, who was about to refute, fell silent after hearing this.
"Gangcheng is a nice place, Xiao'e, don't get divorced yet. Keep Xu Damao stable. Once I have made all the arrangements, we'll go together." Father Lou picked up the cup and took a big gulp.
"Dad, you mean, Xu Damao..."
"That's right, we don't harm others, but we must be on guard against others harming us." Father Lou nodded with a heavy face.
Although he didn't like Xu Damao, he was his son-in-law after all. He knew a little about what Xu Damao had done. Moreover, he had been in the industry for decades and had seen all kinds of people. He could tell what kind of person Xu Damao was the first time he met him.
Lou Xiao'e shuddered, "It's exactly the same as he said..."
Father Lou asked in surprise: "Him? Li Qinghe?"
Lou Xiao'e nodded, "He told me to be on guard against Xu Damao. He is a real villain. If there is any unrest, he will definitely report us to protect himself and make a contribution at the same time."
"This person is not a simple person. How long have you known him? Do you know what kind of person he is?" Father Lou looked surprised.
"I didn't pay much attention to him before. I just knew he was usually quiet. Ever since his father died helping the police capture enemy spies and was named a martyr a year ago, he took over and joined the factory. He didn't want to work in the workshop, so he became an electrician apprentice and was only hired as a regular employee a while ago."
"Since he became a regular employee, he has started to talk more and gets along well with the people in the hospital. However, he was not very friendly to the old lady in the hospital when I helped her take a walk last time."
"Not very friendly? What do you mean?" Father Lou was surprised.
Lou Xiao'e still remembered the last conversation between Li Qinghe and the deaf old lady. She always felt that there was something else between their words, but she couldn't figure it out, so she recounted the conversation.
Mother Lou seemed to have won the game back, and said proudly: "Look, he's still praising him. This Li Qinghe is not a good person. He treats an old lady like this."
"Bullshit!" Father Lou glared at her and pointed at Lou Xiao'e, "With your brains, you're still helping count the money after being bought."
He tapped the table with his index finger. "This kid is not simple. He has a unique vision, is ruthless, smart, has clear thinking, and can see through people's hearts. He is incredible."
He glanced at Lou Xiao'e again and smacked his lips regretfully, "If it was a few years earlier, I would have made this boy my son-in-law no matter what."
"well?"
Lou Xiao'e was puzzled. How did you know that? How come I don't know anything?
Father Lou saw her confusion and said, "You are a child who has no experience in dealing with people. You don't know how to judge people. If you were asked to manage a business, you would be a good hand, but when it comes to dealing with people, you are no different from a child."
"Do you think that deaf old lady is a good person? But you have to know that no one is selfless. As long as they are human, they have selfish desires, and this old lady is no exception."
"She wants to match you up with that He Yuzhu."
Lou Xiao'e was stunned, her face full of disbelief, "Shazhu? No way, how could I fall in love with him? Besides, I'm not divorced."
Father Lou sighed, "This is where you are stupid. The old lady praised He Yuzhu in front of you for no reason and said Xu Damao was a bad seed. What did she want to do? If she felt sorry for you, wouldn't she just scold Xu Damao? Why did she praise He Yuzhu? Li Qinghe saw through her intention and told her not to plot against you. Do you know what Dinghai Shenzhen means?"
"I know this." Lou Xiao'e nodded. "In ancient times, there was a great flood. Dayu led the human race to control the flood and forged four magic irons to suppress the four seas. They are the Dinghai Magic Needle Iron, Jiahai Purple Gold Beam, Qingtian White Jade Pillar, and Suixin Iron Rod Soldiers. The Dinghai Magic Needle Iron is the Ruyi Jingu Bang used by Sun Wukong in Journey to the West."
"But what does this have to do with what they said?"
Father Lou sneered, "This is a big deal. The Dinghai Shenzhen cannot be moved. Once it moves, it will no longer be the Dinghai Shenzhen. Instead, it will cause unrest in the world. Li Qinghe is warning the old lady to stay still and not cause trouble, otherwise he will bring accidents to her doorstep."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this guy is ruthless and a real man. If he were in my era, he would definitely have a place. I don't have this ability at my age."
