Lou Xiao'e didn't want to marry Xu Damao, but she couldn't get rid of his entanglement, and she cried in desperation.
Fortunately, the guesthouse staff came in to sweep the floor because they smelled the aroma; actually, they were just greedy and wanted to eat.
It is considered impolite and petty for the host not to invite outsiders to have a simple meal when they enter the house during a meal.
Three waiters arrived at once, and footsteps could be heard in the corridor, indicating that there were quite a few people coming.
Sensing something was wrong, Zheng Ya stood up and said, "We should go to work. We've finished breakfast, so let's make room for the guesthouse staff to clean the room. Shall we go?"
"Okay, let's go. It's almost time for work, Bao'er, let's go." Fu Qingyao got up, took Bao'er's hand, and walked out.
Xu Qi, carrying the empty food box, followed Lou Xiao'e, who was tearful and embarrassed, out of the store.
Zheng Ya followed closely behind, awkwardly weaving through the queue as the waiters stared longingly at him.
After the waiters watched them leave, they gathered together and started gossiping: "Sister Liu, you were the first one to come in, so the guests must have invited you to eat something delicious, right?"
"What are you eating!"
I had just walked in when they finished eating. There wasn't any left for me, what a pity..." Sister Liu was so hungry!
Little Li said with a greedy look, "I told you a couple of days ago that someone in the customer service department on the second floor was eating some amazing food, it smelled so good, but you guys wouldn't believe me?"
"Yes, I've learned something new today. This room smells amazing. The aroma makes me realize that all the food I've ever eaten before was pig swill!" a group of waiters complained.
These days, service staff are all permanent employees.
Moreover, it's a highly sought-after profession; most people would do anything to get in.
Their social status naturally rises, making them no less than anyone else, and on the contrary, giving them an arrogant sense of superiority.
Therefore, they didn't act like outsiders when they entered the guest room. They gathered in the room to smell the fragrance and were reluctant to leave.
As Zheng Ya and his group walked down the crowded street, Lou Xiao'e seized the opportunity to ask for help: "Comrade Zheng Ya, Xu Damao is a complete bad element."
Every time he went to the countryside to carry out filming assignments for the steel rolling mill, he would have affairs with widowed women in the countryside and also demand agricultural products from the township cooperatives.
Otherwise, he would lie and claim that the projector was malfunctioning or the film tape was damaged, making it impossible to play the film for the other township unit. He was simply lawless.
"Given his despicable character, could you please refrain from treating him?"
"Uh, it seems your Lou family has inquired quite a bit about Xu Damao?" Zheng Ya replied with a sigh, already understanding the situation.
After all, Lou Bancheng was able to create wealth comparable to half of Beijing; he couldn't possibly be a simple person.
How could someone like that not thoroughly investigate their daughter's future husband?
For Lou Bancheng, this kind of thing was just a matter of using his hands, mouth, and making a phone call; someone would run errands for him.
Unfortunately, the times limited the development of some people.
Lou Xiao'e gave a bitter smile: "Our Lou family's wealth is a sin..."
"Hey, hey, don't say that to us. This is a great era where labor is glorious. Talking about money is outdated!" Zheng Ya deliberately reminded her that only through labor can one integrate into the times.
In this era, money and power are not necessarily useful.
While not absolute, no one can change the gears of time.
Lou Xiao'e said unwillingly, "Are you really not going to help me?"
And they're even going to aid and abet that evil element, Xu Damao?
You're wrong about that.
First, my treatment of Xu Damao was merely a transaction.
The extent of treatment is up to me.
Secondly, whether Xu Damao is truly a bad element is not something you or I can define.
In fact, your Lou family could simply collect evidence of Xu Damao's crimes and send him to the guillotine, thus solving the problem once and for all.
Third, I am currently learning medicine from my master, so medical ethics are not yet apparent; healing the sick and saving lives is my primary duty.
How can you accuse me of aiding and abetting evil?
You must understand that doctors don't see good or evil, they only see patients.
Fourth, we've never met, so why should I believe your one-sided story?
You can also take my advice, go far away and find happiness! Zheng Ya sensed that she was not a bad person, just too naive, so he patiently advised her to re-plan her life.
If it were someone else, Zheng Ya might not even be willing to speak to anyone.
In fact, Zheng Ya had already begun planning Xu Damao's life, intending to use him as a guinea pig for experiments on supernatural abilities and magic.
Xu Damao, who was sleeping in bed, was suddenly jolted awake by the invasion of the spiritual power of the Circulation Ability. He sat up abruptly and exclaimed, "Ah, what's happening to me?"
"Slap!" He slapped himself across the face, and his right cheek swelled up visibly.
It wasn't that Xu Damao had gone mad; rather, he felt ashamed and slapped himself for the 20 years he had wasted, doing all sorts of bad things.
Now he has ended up as a living eunuch. Under Zheng Ya's bewitching guidance, which consumes 10,000 points each of virtue and faithlessness, Xu Damao is forced to wake up and feel full of remorse.
Xu Damao sat on the bed, questioning the meaning of life.
Zheng Ya sensed everything and wanted to try to plan for Xu Damao to become a better person, wholeheartedly serving the people, and how much Zhengde value income could be generated?
The plan guides the child to become a good kid, but after all, he is still a child. Even if he takes the lead among the children in the courtyard, the Zhengde value he creates for Zhengya is very limited.
However, the improved planning for Xu Damao would affect the steel rolling mill and the rural commune collective, and the resulting income and benefits would be worth Zheng Ya's consideration.
Zheng Ya believes that guiding bad people to become good people is the most fulfilling and the best form of punishment.
Lou Xiao'e, unaware of the truth, was also enlightened by Zheng Ya's words, but said sadly, "What you said is all right. I was just being presumptuous."
I just feel that fate is unfair, and I can't change my destiny. I'm unwilling to accept it, so I wanted to try and ruin Xu Damao with you to see if that could change my fate!
"Uh, hasn't your Lou family ever considered leaving for a distant place?" Zheng Ya asked, somewhat puzzled.
Lou Bancheng isn't stupid, so why didn't he think of the principle of fleeing far away and protecting himself?
Lou Xiao'e shook her head and smiled bitterly: "You're thinking too simply."
Leaving abroad makes it hard to leave one's homeland, but when one is bullied and powerless to resist in a foreign country, life becomes equally difficult.
Hong Kong and Macau are too chaotic to do business or live a peaceful life.
Besides, the family business and assets are tied to my entire family; even if we wanted to leave, we couldn't!
"Why don't you all donate your money and resources to farm?" Fu Qingyao couldn't bear to see this and offered her a way out.
Labor is the most glorious thing, and integrating into the working masses is the right path.
Lou Xiao'e wanted to give it a try, but considering her parents' advanced age and the fact that neither of them had ever done heavy work, she smiled wryly and said, "I want to too!"
But my parents are getting old, and there are too many things to worry about..."
"Alright, you need time to think about a way out. Ultimately, you have to find your own path in life."
The country and the people did not force anyone to take a desperate path.
"If you go down the wrong path, it's disloyalty to the country and the people. You should know the consequences." Fu Qingyao, being principled, gave her advice and sent her away.
