Time flies, and it's early February, and work has already started for half a month.
Holidays are like this, time is fleeting and happy times are always short-lived.
You feel that it has just begun and it is already over. When you react, you will find that you are already at work.
The courtyard was extremely quiet during the period after the New Year. The only major event was the divorce of Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e.
This incident made a big fuss. After all, divorce was a rare thing in this period. No one would divorce unless it was absolutely necessary, but Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao just divorced.
Xu Damao actually didn't want to leave. After all, the Lou family was very wealthy. Every time Lou Xiao'e returned to her parents' home, she would always bring back finances. He spent money lavishly outside and often relied on Lou Xiao'e for subsidies.
After a divorce, the finances will become extremely tight immediately, but he can't leave.
…
…
It was the second day after the holiday, and Lou Zhenhua came to the courtyard with a large group of people early in the morning.
A group of people went directly to the backyard and blocked Xu Damao inside the house.
"Xu Damao, come out."
Lou An got Lou Zhenhua's signal and started to call the door.
Xu Damao, who was inside the house, looked at the dozen or so people outside through the crack in the window, almost peeing with fear.
"Xu Damao, please open the door. I know you are at home."
Lou An screamed a few more times, but when there was still no movement inside he started to kick the door, but was stopped by Lou Zhenhua.
It’s not appropriate to make unnecessary extravagances this time.
Just when Xu Damao was besieged at home, the second uncle Liu Haizhong came out of the house after hearing the noise.
"Oh, Mr. Lou, why do you have the time to come to our courtyard? It's so brilliant!"
When he walked out of the house with his clothes wrapped around his bangs, something happened to Lou Zhenhua. He immediately changed his face and ran over, bumping all the way.
"Who are you?"
Who is this? Lou Zhenhua recalled it and found that he did not recognize this person.
"Ah, I, Liu Hai, am a seventh-level forger at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant, and also the second steward of the Siheyuan!"
"Oh, it's Master Liu!"
While the two were chatting, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai and the third uncle Yan Bugui also rushed over.
"Dr. Lou, why are you here?"
Yi Zhonghai was shocked when he saw it was Lou Zhenhua, wondering why Lou Zhenhua was here?
Could it be that he came to avenge Lou Xiaoe, but this matter has been going on for so long, it shouldn’t be!
"Director Lou, I am Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-grade fitter at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. I am also the first in charge of the courtyard. This is the third uncle, a teacher at Yanbu Gui Hongxing Primary School."
Although Yi Zhonghai had met Lou Zhenhua several times, he didn't think Lou Zhenhua would recognize him. After all, he was far from an eighth-level fitter when Lou Zhenhua handed over the steel rolling mill.
He quickly introduced himself and introduced Yan Bugui.
"Oh, Master Yi and Teacher Yan."
Lou Zhenhua looked at Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui, and then pointed at Xu Damao's house.
"You three gentlemen, could you please call Xu Damao out? Otherwise, I will have someone break down the door."
"Um, Mr. Lou, do you have anything to do with Xu Damao?"
Yi Zhonghai asked carefully.
"I won't do anything to him. New China has no intention of abusing lynchings. Besides, you all know my character to some extent."
"Oh, Mr. Lou, of course we believe that before liberation, the Lou Dong family was a well-known family of good deeds in Forty-Nine City."
As soon as Lou Zhenhua said something in his bangs, he immediately followed his words and started to flatter him.
"Yes, yes, of course we believe Mr. Lou."
Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui also agreed.
"Then please help the three masters to call Xu Damao in."
Lou Zhenhua waved his hand in a gesture of invitation.
The three uncles looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally they had no choice but to walk to Xu Damao's door.
"Da Mao, come out, it'll be okay."
"There are three of us and so many neighbors. You don't have to be afraid. You have to trust us."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Lou is your father-in-law. Don't you still know what he is?"
"Yes, and if Lou Dong really wants to do something to you, do you think this broken door can be stopped?"
Finally, after repeated persuasion and threats from the three uncles.
Xu Damao finally opened the door and walked out, and came to Lou Zhenhua again anxiously.
"Dad, what do you want from me?"
Xu Damao looked at Lou Zhenhua, who had an unkind expression, and even trembled a little when he retreated.
"Don't call me dad, I don't have an uncle like you."
Lou Zhenhua glared at Xu Damao fiercely, then turned to face the residents of the courtyard.
"Dear neighbors, I am Lou Zhenhua, Lou Xiao'e's father. Many people here know me!"
"One thing happened in the former day. Xu Damao not only went out to cause trouble, but also beat Xiao'e."
Lou Zhenhua pointed at Xu Damao angrily and said.
"Xiao'e is my daughter. I have been spoiled and pampered for so many years, but I have never touched her. In the end, Xu Damao was beaten. Do you think that Xu Damao is still a human being?"
After listening to Lou Zhenhua's words, the residents of the courtyard began to talk about it, but most of them were criticizing Xu Damao.
"Dad, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I swear I will treat Xiao'e well in the future."
Xu Damao immediately began to beg for mercy and even began to swear.
But Lou Zhenhua was unmoved at all, because he had already received Lou Xiaoe's physical examination report, which showed that Lou Xiaoe's fertility was normal.
This bastard Xu Damao made Lou Xiaoe suffer unjust injustice for several years. Lou Zhenhua wished that he would die on the spot, but if things went wrong, Lou Zhenhua could only endure it.
"So after discussing with Xiao'e, I decided to let Xiao'e and Xu Damao divorce."
boom!
These words were like a bolt from the blue that struck Xu Damao and everyone in the courtyard.
Divorce? Why did it happen all of a sudden? Xu Damao originally thought that Lou Zhenhua's aggressive approach was just to scare him so that he would not dare to beat or scold Lou Xiao'e again in the future.
The most he could do was write a guarantee letter or something, but he never expected it to happen like this. Xu Damao couldn't tell whether he was scaring himself or if he was serious.
However, Xu Damao still dealt with the worst possibility.
"Dad, you can't get divorced. Once divorced, it would be bad for Xiao'e and me. I will definitely treat Xiao'e well..."
Xu Damao begged and begged beside Lou Zhenhua. Lou Zhenhua almost knelt down and hugged his thigh and begged.
The neighbors in the courtyard were in a frenzy. The number of people getting divorced in the past year was probably less than the number of spies who were arrested, which was considered a rare thing.
It’s finally here today!
Some of you who are too arrogant have already taken out the melon seeds and started eating them.
Zhang Zhonghua was also watching with great interest.
The three uncles saw that this was not going to work, so they also stepped forward to persuade Lou Zhenhua.
