Siheyuan: Xu Damao corrects his evil ways

Chapter 166 166, maternal love

Lou Bancheng's regret can only be said to be a temporary choice.

Just like taking off your clothes when it’s hot and putting on your clothes when it’s cold.

Originally, when it was difficult in the past few years, people like Lou Bancheng were more conspicuous. They didn't have to work, but they enjoyed a good life.

This is definitely inconsistent with our policy.

That's why Lou Bancheng thought of marrying his daughter to a worker like Xu Damao to show his attitude.

As Lou Bancheng's attitude was revealed, he was indeed recognized by some people.

Then others gave him some tasks, but in this regard, Lou Bancheng still had shortcomings. His operations on the other side of Hong Kong Island are not enough to allow him to complete tasks that are too complex.

This is another problem.

Although we can calm down and repair the channels, we definitely won’t have enough time.

At this moment, Lou Bancheng got a piece of news from the other side of Hong Kong Island. A very capable middleman whose son is widowed in middle age!

This is the reason why Lou Bancheng has such an extreme attitude recently.

Even because of this, Lou Tan has been under a lot of pressure recently.

Fortunately, the son from Hong Kong is not the eldest son who inherits the family business, but is just a younger son who is doing nothing.

Otherwise, even if the Lou Tan family objects again, Lou Bancheng will tie up Lou Xiao'e and go to Hong Kong Island.

Of course, if the other party was the eldest son, it would not be Lou Bancheng's turn to make this idea.

Moreover, this kind of thing must be done voluntarily by Lou Xiaoe, otherwise if Xu Damao makes trouble, Lou Bancheng will not be able to bear the consequences.

Lou Bancheng handed over this matter to Lou Tan.

But Lou Tan didn't tell Lou Xiao'e and the others that to her, her daughter's happiness was far more important than anything else.

Lou Tan smiled lightly and listened to Xu Damao talking about various interesting things about Xu Shengli, and sometimes also told various interesting things about Lou Xiao'e's childhood.

No embarrassment, no embarrassment, harmonious relationship.

What Xu Damao didn't know was that he almost lost Lou Xiao'e.

Everything takes time to develop before you can see the final result.

Lou Xiao'e still has a bit of a child's heart. When she carried the child upstairs just now, she was still mature and steady.

But now when she went downstairs, Lou Xiao'e seemed to have returned to her teenage state, jumping up and down, and then jumped into Lou Tan's arms.

However, Lou Xiao'e ignored her current weight, which must have hurt Lou Tan.

Lou Tan became angry and slapped Lou Xiao'e several times.

Lou Xiao'e covered her butt and fled to Xu Damao's side.

Lou Tan couldn't help but said angrily and funny: "You are already a mother, why do you think you are a child?"

Lou Xiao'e should be very happy today, probably because Lou Bancheng is not here.

Hearing Lou Tan's scolding voice, not only was he not ashamed, but he hugged Xu Damao's arm and stuck out his tongue at Lou Tan.

Mr. Lou Tan couldn't help but be amused by her.

Now life outside is slowly recovering.

But life in the Lou family is not as good as it used to be.

This can be seen from the food prepared by Lou Tan.

Although the Xu family's food is still rich, it is not as good as when Xu Damao first came to this world and came to the Lou family.

Xu Damao was too embarrassed to ask this, but Lou Xiao'e had no such scruples and asked directly: "Mom, it's a rare time for me to come back. Are you going to give me this?"

Mr. Lou Tan said angrily: "If you like to eat, you will fall down if you don't."

After Lou Tan scolded Lou Xiao'e, he turned to Xu Damao and smiled: "Those things can be obtained, but they are a little more high-profile, so I am not prepared."

What can Xu Damao say, naturally these are pretty good.

But Lou Xiao'e did not let these things go easily in front of her mother. She still asked coquettishly: "Mom, why? Isn't this year's life better than last year?"

Lou Tan smiled and said: "In a family like ours, what year is difficult?
  But now those things cannot be passed through formal channels.

Even if we come here, it’s not something we businessmen can own.

It's a slightly off road, and there are too many eyes staring at it now.

Besides, can’t I save some money to buy candy for my eldest grandson? What's the use of eating it for you? Guang has gained a lot of fat. "

Xu Damao pretended to be casual and asked, "Are those places checking very closely now?"

Lou Tan knew what his son-in-law was doing in private, so he did not answer, but nodded lightly.

Xu Damao understood that this was Lou Tan's disguised reminder to him that he should be more careful when doing these things recently.

Although Xu Damao's path is different from those in the pigeon market.

But since Lou Tan told him this seriously, it proved that she had heard something.     This thing is really not a matter of competition. It does not mean that the people behind Xu Damao are in a higher position than the Lou family, so the news must be faster and more accurate than that of the Lou Tan family.

Xu Damao hasn't figured out whether the person behind him is Deputy Factory Director Li or someone else. With his identity, inquiring into these things can easily lead to misunderstandings.

So now Xu Damao is responsible for contacting the mountain goods trading road, and does not care about anything else.

These things have never stopped, more or less.

And Xu Damao's intention of running down was not as simple as sending a letter of introduction.

Sometimes, Chief Hu would specifically ask him to look for certain ingredients. This was Xu Damao's official job.

It was quite lucky. When Xu Damao first came here, it was difficult for everyone and they basically wanted what they had. Those who were looking for strange and strange things did not find Xu Damao and the others.

By the end of last year, things started to get better. Xu Damao is also familiar with those places.

Although he made one or two mistakes, for example, when Section Chief Hu asked him to find a certain ingredient, Xu Damao went to three or four villages to find it for him.

But this kind of thing is just a matter of running more errands, not a big deal.

This is also true. Xu Damao really doesn’t know where to find the parts he needs to find.

If you are looking for someone specifically to say hello, then just go to remote mountainous areas to look for them.

Xu Damao also had this problem when he sent Lou Xiao'e back this time. Xu Damao took over the task of Section Chief Hu and needed to go to the countryside to help a certain big shot find Da Chong Hua'er. This procurement task felt a bit like Deputy Factory Director Li's order.

After Xu Damao finished eating, he went upstairs and kissed his son twice. Then I hugged Lou Xiao'e and prepared to go downstairs.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e suddenly said nervously: "Brother Damao, do you understand what mom said just now?"

Xu Damao stared at Lou Xiao'e for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "My Xiao'e has become smarter?"

Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but feel shy when she heard this. Even though she was pretending, her man really took her for a fool.

But Lou Xiao'e still asked carefully about this kind of thing, and she had to be sure. If something went wrong on Xu Damao's side, it would be really hard for her.

Xu Damao didn't know whether Lou Xiao'e always pretended to be stupid or was occasionally smart. But in the face of Lou Xiao'e's concern, Xu Damao still explained it to her.

Xu Damao sat on the edge of the bed and hugged Lou Xiao'e and said: "Don't worry, my affairs have nothing to do with the pigeon affairs. At most, I am a former broker, and I can introduce it to others. I don't have money in my hands to do business."

Lou Xiao'e listened carefully, thought about it, and then warned: "You have to be careful anyway. Now there are me and my children waiting for you at home."

Your wife’s concerns must be obeyed.

When Xu Damao said goodbye to Lou Tan and left the Lou family.

Lou Tan looked at Lou Xiao'e who was like a stone to watch her husband, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, okay, it's like going on a business trip. Won't Damao be back in three to five days?"

Lou Xiao'e was embarrassed by Lou Tan's remarks, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Mom, how did you feel when my dad was on a business trip?"

When Lou Tan heard this, he fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said to Lou Xiao'e: "I couldn't compare with you at that time. Back then, it was hard for mountain bandits, road tyrants, and military bandits to talk about anything."

Lou Tan walked into the house as he spoke, and Lou Xiao'e hugged Lou Tan's arm obediently.

Lou Tan said: "I remember one time, your dad went out to deliver goods. At that time, Sijiu City was guarded by General Fu, but the city where he went was bald. The two families didn't deal with him. I don't know why your dad was taken away. Detained.

Everyone was anxious at that time, but the big house didn't want to see everyone cry. You have an aunt who started crying because she was worried about your dad. As a result, your aunt slapped her in the face dozens of times, and even a few of her teeth were knocked out.

I was also afraid at that time. You were young and I had no one to rely on except your father. You are not allowed to cry when there are people around during the day. I can only hold you in my arms and cry silently in the middle of the night.

You kept wiping my tears back then, have you forgotten? "

Lou Xiao'e froze, and after thinking for a long time, she didn't remember when she was held in Lou Tan's arms and wiped her tears for her.

Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but ask: "Mom, how old was I then?"

"Four or five years old," Lou Tan replied hesitantly.

Lou Xiao'e couldn't help rolling her eyes.

At four years old, who still remembers those things?

But Lou Xiao'e understood what Lou Tan was afraid of at that time. If something happened to Lou Bancheng at that time, maybe someone like Lou Tan would be sold to a flower house by Dafang.

Lou Xiao'e may be adopted by Dafang, but it's hard to say how she will be treated.

Even if Lou Xiao'e had never seen this kind of thing before liberation, she had heard about it.

It was precisely because she had nothing to lose that Lou Tan could only hold Lou Xiao'e in her arms and cry secretly in the middle of the night.

Not only worried about her own fate, but also worried about Lou Xiao'e's fate.

Of course, this kind of thing also depends on the power of the woman’s natal family. If Lou Tan's parents were still alive at that time, they would not have been sold.

Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but ask: "What happened to the aunt who was slapped in the mouth?"

Lou Tan fell silent, patted Lou Xiao'e's hand, and walked into the house without saying a word.

When they were in the room, Lou Tan said: "Before you, you had a sister who was also married to a small worker by your father. Her mother was that aunt, and I never saw her at all later."

These words frightened Lou Xiao'e, and her calves couldn't stop trembling. Lou Tan quickly hugged her daughter and said, "Don't worry, mom will protect you. If anyone wants you to be unhappy, mom will fight him tooth and nail."
