If it weren't for the old lady, Banggeng wouldn't still be crammed into the same room with me. Hmph, I'll have to figure something out.
We should send the old lady away as soon as possible; these snacks aren't free, are they?
This is all our Jia family's money. We can't let the old lady squander it.
As Jia Zhangshi ate the pastries in her hand, she thought to herself with deep sorrow.
On the other side, Xu Damao and the deaf old lady also had a fierce argument.
Xu Damao, utterly dejected, had just returned home when he lay stiffly on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling beams above him.
My mind was filled with my conversation with Lou Xiao'e.
Let's go back to what we just did.
Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao stood at the entrance of the subdistrict office, holding their divorce certificates.
In fact, Xu Damao had wanted to divorce Lou Xiao'e for a long time. A few days ago, while studying at the neighborhood office, Xu Damao keenly sensed that something was wrong with the social atmosphere.
The divorce was actually brought up by Xu Damao during this situation. Xu Damao didn't really care whether Lou Xiao'e had a relationship with Sha Zhu or not.
Anyway, Lou Xiao'e, this rich young lady, had long been tired of playing around and had had enough.
Now that he has a young and beautiful factory beauty, Lou Xiao'e is nothing.
This is a perfect opportunity for me to dump Lou Xiao'e. Wouldn't it be better to be with the factory beauty?
Xu Damao was originally planning how to divorce Lou Xiao'e, but when the opportunity came, he couldn't stop it.
However, once the cold wind blew outside, Xu Damao began to regret his decision.
It wasn't that he regretted divorcing Lou Xiao'e, but rather that he felt he had let her off too easily by divorcing her so readily.
The Lou family are capitalists. It would be a huge loss for me to get a divorce without getting some money.
Everyone knows it was Lou Xiao'e's fault, so asking for some financial compensation isn't unreasonable, is it?
Since the Lou family is so rich, I should take this opportunity to take a bite out of them.
"Lou Xiao'e, remember to move your things out of my place right away. Also, you're not allowed to take your dowry."
"That's mine, did you hear that!" Xu Damao said to Lou Xiao'e with a cold face.
"Why should I! Those are belonging to the Lou family," Lou Xiao'e said upon hearing Xu Damao's words.
She said somewhat angrily, not expecting that Xu Damao would still dare to covet her dowry.
"Why? Just because you can't have children? And why? It's something you owe me, Xu Damao!"
"I've put up with you for so many years, this is my compensation." Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiao'e with a mocking expression.
"Xu Damao, you're a scoundrel and a bastard! Didn't you say I was infertile?!"
"If you're so capable, go to the hospital for a checkup and see who's really infertile."
Lou Xiao'e broke down completely, remembering all the whispers and pointing fingers she had received over the years.
"Hmph, Lou Xiao'e, stop pretending with me. Having children is a woman's business."
"What does this have to do with us men? You think I can't have kids? You just wait, I'll find another one and have ten or eight kids to show you, and you'll be so jealous!"
Xu Damao glanced at Lou Xiao'e with disdain.
Seeing Xu Damao's state, Lou Xiao'e felt relieved. She then gave a self-deprecating laugh.
"Yes, Xu Damao is right. It is true that I, Lou Xiao'e, cannot have children. I wish you a house full of children and grandchildren in the future!"
"That's right." Xu Damao nodded proudly.
Lou Xiao'e was furious, but remembering her father's instructions, she didn't say anything more to Xu Damao. She simply turned and left.
Watching Lou Xiao'e's departing figure, Xu Damao felt a surge of relief. Ah, now he could go find the next one.
What rich heiress? Bah, the next one will be even more well-behaved.
Then Xu Damao happily went to find Yu Haitang, the factory's most beautiful girl.
But something shocking happened to Xu Damao. He actually saw Yu Haitang chatting intimately with someone, her arm around theirs.
Xu Damao hurriedly walked to Yu Haitang's side and angrily pulled their arms apart: "Haitang, who is he?!"
"Xu Damao, what are you doing! Are you crazy?!" Yu Haitang, who had been pulled apart, screamed and yelled at Xu Damao as soon as she saw him.
"I'm crazy, I'm crazy! Didn't you say you'd be with me as long as I got a divorce?!"
"I'm divorced now. Who is he? What do you mean by being with her?" Xu Damao glared angrily at Yu Haitang and pointed at Yang Weimin.
"I advise you not to talk nonsense here. I have absolutely no relation to you, Xu Damao. Stop talking nonsense!" Yu Haitang angrily scolded Xu Damao.
Then, she cautiously looked at her boyfriend beside her: "Weimin, I really have nothing to do with Xu Damao. You have to believe me. We're just ordinary colleagues! Don't listen to his nonsense."
We've known each other for so long, and you know I've always been very virtuous,"
Instead of being angry, Yang Weimin asked Xu Damao with a gloating expression, "Xu Damao, did you really divorce Chairman Lou's daughter?"
Xu Damao ignored Yang Weimin and kept his eyes fixed on Yu Haitang.
"Looks like it's true, hahaha," Yang Weimin laughed twice.
"Xu Damao, let me tell you, Yu Haitang is my girlfriend. If you continue to harass her, don't blame me for being impolite," Yang Weimin said viciously.
"Tch." Xu Damao looked at Yang Weimin with disdain. What a load of bull. He was a projectionist at the steel mill. What consequences? The consequences were that he would quit and none of them would be able to watch movies.
Yang Weimin seemed to understand Xu Damao's meaning and said mockingly, "You, Xu Damao..."
You don't really think you can get away with showing a few movies, do you? Xu Damao, you're not that naive.
