After listening to the old lady and Sha Zhu gossiping like this, Xu Damao...
I could no longer suppress my anger. What old lady, what ancestor? Bah!
He yelled directly at the old woman, "Serves you right for being all alone; your household registration book only has one page!"
I think you deserve it. You think my Zhuzi is righteous? Righteous my ass!
You damned old hag, I've put up with you for so long! Who do you think you are?
They don't really think they're the ancestors of the traditional courtyard houses, do they?
You're nothing more than an old hag who's using his seniority to pretend to be a martyr's family member, bah!
"Xu Damao, you bastard, how dare you say I have no descendants? I'll beat you to death!" The deaf old woman said, raising her cane to strike Xu Damao.
To everyone's surprise, Xu Damao didn't even bother to dodge. He just sat on the bench, his eyes fixed on the old woman: "Come on. Hit her then, let everyone see."
"How dare you act so arrogantly and domineeringly in this courtyard, relying on your age! Go ahead and hit me! If you're so capable, kill me!"
The old lady was so frightened by Xu Damao's bloodshot eyes and ferocious appearance that her heart pounded. Her hand holding the cane trembled, and she was so frightened that she took a few steps back and sat back down.
Sha Zhu thought Xu Damao had hit the old lady, so he thought about getting up to beat Sha Zhu up.
But Qin Huairu, who was standing next to him, stopped him immediately: "Zhu Zi, Xu Damao didn't hit the old lady, what are you going to do? Do you think things aren't serious enough already!"
Qin Huairu certainly didn't want to see those two big fish fighting in the pond.
Hearing Qin Huairu's advice, Sha Zhu finally put down his fist and walked to the old lady's side.
She asked softly, "Grandma, are you alright?"
Before Sha Zhu could reply, Xu Damao continued speaking.
"Silly Zhu, what are you pretending to be, playing the good grandson for? What's wrong? Everyone was watching. I didn't even touch the old lady just now. What's going on?"
You want to hit me again? Come on! Go ahead and kill me if you dare! What are you pretending for all day?
Who do you think you are? I, Xu Damao, beat my wife at home, what's it to you? And now you dare to tell me it's self-defense? Bah!
And he keeps calling himself the "War God of the Courtyard" and a champion of justice. It's infuriating! If you're so great, why didn't your father want you?
Justice is at stake. Who's been stealing factory supplies to support a young widow every day?
I beat Lou Xiao'e, that's my family matter, what's it to you, you idiot Zhu?
I think you're just jealous that I have a wife. And you call that righteousness and self-defense? Pah! How disgusting!
"You dare call me a villain? You idiot Zhu, you're the most disgusting thing in our department! Pah!"
"And you, Lou Xiao'e, all these years, you haven't given me a single feather."
I, Xu Damao, didn't look down on you, yet you've been having an affair with Shazhu behind my back.
What's wrong? You don't really think you're still that pampered young lady who never lifts a finger, do you? So many years have passed.
Tell me what chores you do at home? I wash the clothes, I do the housework, and I, Xu Damao, cook the meals.
Tell me, what have you done for this family? You know I have a grudge against this damned old woman.
I even go out of my way to pamper her with the best food and drinks every day. I tolerated it all because I thought you were happy.
But you shouldn't have gotten involved with Sha Zhu. Everyone in the courtyard knows I have a grudge against Sha Zhu.
"Pah! Lou Xiao'e, you disgust me! You don't deserve to be a daughter-in-law of the Xu family, you barren hen!"
Xu Damao was completely enraged at this moment, and he blurted out all the words that had been suppressed deep in his heart.
Xu Damao could no longer tolerate it; he simply couldn't take it anymore.
Over the years, I've suffered so much injustice. Who could know that, despite my seemingly glamorous life—marrying a wealthy woman and living a life of luxury—...
But who could know that all these years, she'd been serving her like a servant? Baby's heart is breaking.
The onlookers stared wide-eyed, dumbfounded at Xu Damao. Good heavens!
Xu Damao has gone berserk! How long have they been holding back Xu Damao?
The old lady was so angry with Xu Damao that she was trembling all over. That damned Xu Damao!
How dare he spout such nonsense? Doesn't he care about his reputation?
According to the old lady's original plan, Xu Damao was a sleazy and cowardly fellow, so even if he heard it,
They would only investigate secretly, then distance themselves from and mistreat Lou Xiao'e.
He and Sha Zhu worked together to deal with Lou Xiao'e, but unexpectedly Xu Damao suddenly lost his temper.
The old woman had no idea that a man's greatest shame is when his wife becomes his greatest enemy.
To restore his reputation, Xu Damao wished he could just kill Sha Zhu.
In truth, Lou Xiao'e also felt wronged. She was originally a wealthy young lady who had been served by others since childhood, but later, due to the political situation, she could only marry Xu Damao.
She was transformed from a pampered young lady into a shrew who throws tantrums and gets into fights. Who would have thought about what kind of life she's been living all these years?
Yes, I did ask you, Xu Damao, to do the laundry, cook, and clean the house, but how could you slander me and Shazhu in front of so many people?
Looking at Xu Damao in front of her, Lou Xiao'e felt completely unfamiliar with him. It turned out that Xu Damao had always thought of her that way.
Meanwhile, Sha Zhu was filled with anxiety, and he even stole a glance at Lou Xiao'e. Could it be that Lou Xiao'e really had feelings for him?
Qin Huairu watched Sha Zhu's little tricks with cold eyes. "You silly Sha Zhu," she thought, "you're trying to have your cake and eat it too."
And Lou Xiao'e, it turns out you're no better than her either.
