Chapter 17: Determined



Lou Xiao'e was also annoyed when she heard Xu Damao's words, "What do you mean? You just think it's my problem!"

How could she, as the eldest daughter, not have a temper? She had been tolerant before because she felt that she could not give birth to a child and felt sorry for him. Now it may not be her problem. She must figure it out quickly. If it is Xu Damao who cannot give birth, she must get back the grievances she has suffered over the years.

Xu Damao also did not give in. This was a matter of a man's dignity, so he had to stand firm. "I'm telling you, there's absolutely no problem with me. It's your problem that you can't have children. From ancient times to the present, there have always been women who can't have children!"

At this time, Li Qinghe absorbed the emotional value, secretly happy in his heart, but pretended to be anxious and flustered on the surface, "Hey, hey, hey, brother Damao, sister-in-law, don't quarrel, this is my fault, I have no control over my mouth, all nonsense, nonsense, if you quarrel because of my nonsense, how can I have the face to come again in the future."

After saying that, he quickly raised his glass to signal Xu Damao, and then drank it all himself, "Brother Damao, I use this glass of wine to apologize to you."

"It's okay, brother. I don't blame you. You mean well. Let's continue drinking." Xu Damao calmed down and finished his glass. "Come on, continue drinking."

Li Qinghe smiled secretly in his heart while drinking one cup after another with Xu Damao. He was reluctant to leave now. The couple's emotions fluctuated violently. Although Xu Damao looked indifferent now, he was actually extremely nervous and fearful.

She must be worried that it's his problem that she can't have children. Once it's confirmed, not only will they lose face, but their Xu family will also be extinct. That would be extremely unfilial and she would not be able to close her eyes even after she died.

Yi Zhonghai almost went insane because he had no offspring.

When people are worried, it is easy to get drunk after drinking.

Xu Damao forced Li Qinghe to drink one cup after another. Lou Xiao'e was also angry at this time, so she went back to the inner room to sulk. In a short while, he was already drowsy. Thanks to his strong physique, Li Qinghe didn't feel much.

thump!

Before finishing the last glass of wine, Xu Damao slumped over the table. If Li Qinghe hadn't been quick-witted, the good bowl of chicken soup would have been ruined. Li Qinghe had been drinking with Xu Damao to absorb his emotional value and hadn't had time to drink.

Lou Xiao'e heard the voice and came out. She saw Li Qinghe supporting Xu Damao. She hurried forward to take him and said embarrassedly: "Oh, Qinghe, I'm so sorry. Damao has no control over alcohol when it comes to drinking."

Li Qinghe shook his head, "It's okay, sister-in-law, let Brother Damao have a good sleep."

After saying that, he pondered for a moment and spoke again: "But I still have to say one thing, don't blame me for being nosy, don't be too optimistic about the issue of fertility, solve it as soon as possible, otherwise a small problem may be dragged into a big problem. If Brother Damao doesn't go, you can go and check it out yourself. If you have no problem, then..."

Lou Xiao'e nodded thoughtfully, and tried to help Xu Damao into the inner room with her hands, but Xu Damao had drunk so much that he had turned into a puddle of mud and could not be pulled up.

Li Qinghe stepped forward quickly, "Sister-in-law, let me do it."

As he spoke, he took Xu Damao and put his hand under his armpit, accidentally brushing against Lou Xiaoe's headlights.

Lou Xiao'e was so frightened that she trembled all over. She looked up and saw Li Qinghe supporting Xu Damao walking into the house. There was nothing unusual. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the other party should not have done it on purpose and did not notice what his hand touched at all.

She didn't know that at this moment Li Qinghe already had a smile of ambiguous meaning on his face.

Gather your strength!

I studied Buddhism for so long in my previous life, but I rarely encountered such...tsk tsk tsk...

Xu Damao was moved to the bed and the quilt was pulled over him.

"Sister-in-law, are you going to get checked tomorrow?"

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head and whispered, "I...I want to go, but I'm a little scared."

It's no wonder that she was a little hesitant. It's really that old ideas are still influencing people of this era. They think that such things are shameful and will be gossiped about if others know about them, so few people do this kind of examination.

And she was also afraid that it was really her problem. If it was really her problem, how should she deal with it?

Li Qinghe looked at her and thought for a moment. "How about this, sister-in-law? I'll go with you tomorrow. My work schedule is very relaxed. You can wait for me at the restaurant opposite the steel mill. It's useless to avoid this kind of thing. If you don't figure it out, you don't know what will happen in the future."

Perhaps it was because Li Qinghe wanted to go with her that Lou Xiao'e gained courage. After a struggle, she nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you at 9:30 tomorrow."

Her mind is still more open than most people of this era. She knows that escape will not solve any problem. And after suffering so many years of anger and contempt, she also wants to figure out whether it is her own problem. If it is, then she has nothing to say. She will try her best to compensate Xu Damao and accept it calmly even if he wants to divorce her.

If not, you must seek an explanation for yourself.

"Okay, sister-in-law, I'll leave first. You should take a rest and don't put too much pressure on yourself. No matter what happens, you have to face it."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Qinghe." Lou Xiao'e forced a smile and sent Li Qinghe out the door.

Back to the bed, she looked at Xu Damao, who was like a dead pig, with mixed feelings.

In fact, she didn't like Xu Damao. She only married him due to the circumstances. But after all, they had been husband and wife for several years and they still had some feelings for each other.

Yu Li had already packed up most of the things. During this time, Yan Bugui and Yan Jiecheng also came to take a look. Seeing that Li Qinghe was drinking at Xu Damao's house and was not at home at all, they were completely relieved.

It would be a lie to say that I wasn't worried about letting my daughter-in-law or wife go to someone else's home, but this time I was really relieved.

Li Qinghe is not at home, what are you worried about?

The father and son also went home humming a little tune, thinking in their minds how to divide more things.

But they didn't expect that Xu Damao fell down halfway through drinking.

Li Qinghe pulled aside the curtain and saw Yu Li sweeping the floor with her butt sticking out.

I have to say, this Yu Li...tsk tsk tsk...

Hearing the sound of the curtain being lifted, Yu Li turned around and saw the drunk Li Qinghe coming in and sitting down on a stool.

"Qinghe, you and Xu Damao came back so soon after drinking?" Yu Li asked curiously. As far as she knew, two grown men would not break up until midnight after drinking.

Li Qinghe smiled bitterly and said, "Hey, who knows what happened to Brother Damao? He drank one cup after another and didn't even touch the food. Not long after drinking, he fell down. I was almost dying too, so I hurried back."

Although Yu Li was surprised, she did not continue to ask. Thinking of what Li Qinghe had told her before, she asked, "Um, Qinghe, tell me more about that thing you told me about before."

Li Qinghe pretended to be confused, as if he would fall asleep at any moment, "Not going well? What's not going well? It's going pretty well."

Seeing him swaying, Yu Li hurried over to support him, "Qinghe, hold on a little longer, I'll help you to the bed."
