Not long after, Yan Jiefang came out of the house with two dollars in his pocket with a silly smile on his face.
I was about to walk to the supply and marketing agency, but I stopped after walking a few steps.
Two dollars is a bit much, isn't it?
Qin Huairu was just Qin Jingru's cousin, not her biological mother, so she wasn't worth the money they spent to buy her.
It's better to save some money and buy an apple later.
As for the extra money, of course it will be used to save Cuihua, a woman who has lost her footing!
Yan Jiefang touched the two coins in his pocket and ran towards the cotton spinning factory in a sneaky manner.
****
evening.
Qin Huairu looked confused and looked at the apple handed over by Yan Jiefang.
Why is there still a rotten spot on the apple?
Could this thing be picked up from some trash can?
Bringing a rotten apple to visit a patient is really a good idea.
Being stared at by Qin Huairu so blankly, Yan Jiefang couldn't help but feel guilty.
He never expected that the price of Cuihua would actually increase.
He took all two dollars away.
In the end, I had no choice but to take an apple from Cuihua that she didn't want to eat.
"Sister Qin, do you still want this apple? If not, I will take it back!"
This time, Qin Huairu really laughed angrily.
You brought me a rotten apple and you want to take it back?
How did the brain grow?
Do you still want to marry a wife?
If it hadn't been for Li Weidong's orders, Qin Huairu would have started chasing people away now.
Not with such disgusting people.
For Li Weidong's plan, she could only suppress the anger in her heart and said with a forced smile: "Liberation, I don't want this Apple sister anymore, you should take it back to your father!"
"Oh~"
Yan Jiefang really put the rotten apple back into his pocket.
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes when she saw this and was too lazy to say anything more.
He turned to Yan Jiefang and said, "Jiefang, since you are here, aren't you going to see Xu Damao? He is also in this hospital."
Yan Jiefang whispered: "Why should I go see him? I'm not familiar with him!"
"That being said, we are neighbors after all. Although Xu Damao asked my cousin out for dinner today, hasn't He Yuzhu taught him a lesson? Moreover, he himself is sterile and cannot threaten you at all."
When Yan Jiefang heard this, he immediately opened his ears and said, "What are you talking about? Xu Damao can't do it?"
"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't make this matter public, I overheard it too."
Speaking of this, Qin Huairu paused, reached out and touched Yan Jiefang's eyebrows, and said: "If you dare to tell people that it was me who said it, then don't think about Jingru anymore."
Yan Jiefang nodded repeatedly.
Although Cuihua is still on his mind, this does not prevent him from wanting to marry Qin Jingru.
It is impossible for Yan Bugui to accept Cuihua in this life, he still has to marry a daughter-in-law.
...
However, Yan Jiefang kept the secret in his heart and did not tell it, which was really difficult for him.
When he was about to return to the courtyard, Yan Jiefang suddenly became smart.
He just promised Qin Huairu not to tell anyone that she was the one who said this.
But he didn’t promise not to tell others about Xu Damao’s infertility!
Besides, Qin Jingru didn’t know about Xu Damao’s infertility. Wouldn’t it be terrible if she fell into Xu Damao’s trap?
After all, the Xu family has more money than the Yan family.
Thinking of this, Yan Jiefang suddenly woke up.
After returning home, he immediately told Yan Bugui and the third aunt about the news.
When the two heard the news, they were dumbfounded.
The third aunt even exclaimed: "What? Xu Damao can't have children?"
Yan Bugui nodded and said, "Yes, this is what I overheard from someone at the hospital."
Yan Bugui clicked his tongue and said loudly: "No wonder Lou Xiao'e has been here for many years and her stomach still hasn't moved. Tsk, if this matter gets out, I'm afraid Lao Xu will be embarrassed to see anyone again."
The Lao Xu that Yan Bugui said did not refer to Xu Damao, but to his father.
Although Xu Damao now lives in a courtyard with Lou Xiaoe, it does not mean that his parents are no longer here.
After Mr. and Mrs. Xu gave their job to Xu Damao, they moved back to the countryside and only came here during the holidays.
Every time I come here, I have to brag about it in front of my old neighbors.
How good my son is, how filial my daughter-in-law is, and so on.
The people in the courtyard felt very unhappy.
But there was nothing we could do against him. After all, Lou Xiao'e was both filial and capable.
But now, no matter how good you say it, it is still a desperate situation!
And other people's families are ruined because they can't find a wife.
You, the Xu family, did it purely by yourself, retribution, retribution!
Thinking of the past, Xu Damao always had five people and six people in front of him. Let's see how he will show off when this news gets out!
Yan Bugui felt very comfortable now. He had no intention of keeping Xu Damao a secret.
Lou Xiao'e must let people know about such a big thing.
People usually talk about her behind her back because she is a hen that can't lay eggs, but they never thought it was a problem with the rooster.
Yan Bugui felt that such a serious crime could not be carried by such a good girl like Lou Xiao'e.
And he had other ideas in mind.
If Qin Jingru is really unwilling to marry Yan Jiefang, can she consider Lou Xiao'e?
Although she has been married before, Lou Xiao'e's appearance and figure are not bad, so she is more than enough to match Yan Jiecheng.
Moreover, Lou Xiaoe’s parents are both capable.
Relying on such an in-laws will give me more hope for the future.
Yan Bugui didn't tell Yan Jiecheng this idea, lest the kid lose control of his temper and get blown away, then he would no longer be a human being inside and out.
After Yan Jiefang entered the back room, Yan Bugui immediately started cooing with the third aunt.
The discussion was naturally about how to bring Xu Damao's matter to light.
It's hard for Yan Bugui to tell people directly, but the third aunt doesn't have this problem.
The housewives in the courtyard would get together and gossip about whose family, who had found a partner, and who seemed to be having an affair with whom.
The third aunt didn't even need to say it explicitly. As long as she revealed a little bit about the direction of the trend, those women would automatically figure it out.
It won't be long before the news about Xu Damao's infertility will spread throughout the entire courtyard.
After Lou Xiaoe heard about it, would she not investigate?
Wouldn’t this investigation reveal the problem?
*****
The next morning, the women in the courtyard gathered together to fetch water and wash clothes.
If nothing else, I just want someone to talk to while working.
The third aunt, the second aunt, and the first aunt are among them.
There were other housewives chatting there.
They were all talking about trivial matters.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the third aunt said intentionally or unintentionally: "Hey, have you heard that Xu Damao seems to have been admitted to the hospital!"
"I've heard it a long time ago. Yesterday, he tricked Qin Huairu's cousin into going out to a restaurant. Silly Zhu found out and beat him up. You said Xu Damao is the same, he's already married, why hasn't he changed at all?
, it’s true that a dog can’t change its habit of eating shit.”
After hearing this, the third aunt showed a surprised expression on her face: "Is that so? Why does it sound different to me?"
This statement immediately aroused everyone's curiosity.
The second aunt looked at the third aunt eagerly and asked, "What did you hear?"
The third aunt looked around and said with a mysterious face: "I heard that Xu Damao went to the hospital for surgery because of problems in that area!"
"In which direction?" the eldest mother asked with a confused look on her face.
The third aunt raised her eyebrows and said, "What else can I do? I understand, I understand!"
The aunts all showed a strange smile in unison.
They are all people who have been here before, so who doesn’t know that?
Even larger-scale ones are not always discussed.
The second aunt smacked her lips a few times and said, "You can't tell, Xu Damao is so tall and tall, but actually... Tsk, you really can't tell the difference between appearance and appearance!"
While they were talking, a young woman wearing a blue floral cotton-padded jacket came over. Seeing the aunts chatting excitedly, she couldn't help but feel curious.
"Auntie, what are you talking about?"
"Hey, the moth is here?"
The second aunt was someone who couldn't hide things. When she saw Lou Xiao'e coming over, she pulled her in front of her and asked, "Mozhu, why are you still here? Your family's Damao is already undergoing surgery in the hospital, why are you still here?"
Don’t you want to accompany me?”
Lou Xiao'e looked confused and asked: "Operation? What kind of operation? Isn't my Damao still fine?"
Although the news that Xu Damao asked Qin Jingru to go out to a restaurant yesterday had reached Lou Xiao'e's ears, she still had to protect Xu Damao's face in front of outsiders.
"What a shame, you're still hiding it here, and we all know it!" At this point, the second aunt lowered her voice and said, "Isn't Damao not good at that? We all know it!"
Lou Xiao'e was startled and asked subconsciously: "How did you know..."
Before she finished speaking, she covered her mouth, which further confirmed that Xu Damao indeed had a problem in that area.
Lou Xiao'e was a little distressed, she was still being tricked, but compared to this, she cared more about what the second aunt said just now.
"Second aunt, what did you say just now that Damao was undergoing surgery in the hospital? Who did you listen to?"
When the second aunt heard this, she immediately looked at the third aunt. The third aunt was startled and hurriedly shook her head and said, "I'm not making this up, people are saying that outside!"
When Lou Xiao'e heard this, she felt panicked.
She knew to some extent what kind of person Xu Damao was. After all, she had been married for so long. How could she not know his personality?
Lou Xiao'e couldn't do anything about him. She couldn't divorce Xu Damao just because of some rumors, right?
She didn't care about washing her clothes now. She put the basin down and hurried out.
However, she did not go directly to the hospital. Instead, she went to Lou's house first. She was afraid that she would delay things due to panic, so she naturally had to ask someone to accompany her.
Xu Damao and his parents were in the countryside again, so naturally they had to find Lou's father and Lou's mother at this time.
When the Lou family of three arrived at the hospital, they spent a long time asking at the door of the operating room, but they didn't even ask about Xu Damao's condition.
I had no choice but to run back to the nurse station for consultation.
After checking the check-in records, the nurse finally found Xu Damao's information.
"He is in ward 203. He is fine and is still recuperating there."
Lou Xiao'e breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this and immediately went to see him. Lou's mother quickly followed.
But Lou's father stayed a little more cautious and did not leave with Lou Xiao'e and the others. Instead, he stayed and asked the nurse: "Nurse, can I ask who is my son-in-law's attending doctor?"
"Oh, it's Dr. Wang Hao. His office is just ahead and turn left. It should be inside now."
"OK, thanks."
After hearing this, Father Lou walked towards the doctor's office.
His face was calm when he went in, but when he came out, his face was gloomy.
He came all the way to Xu Damao's ward, and he didn't know how Xu Damao did it. When they came here, Lou Xiao'e and her daughter were still a little bit interested in revolting, but now they were coaxed to smile by him.
Looking at Lou Xiao'e who was peeling an apple for Xu Damao, Lou's father's face became even more ugly.
"Moth, stop peeling and come home with me!"
As soon as these words came out, whether it was Lou Xiao'e, Xu Damao, or Lou's mother, they were all stunned.
Lou Xiao'e was so dissatisfied that she couldn't help but say, "Dad, if you want to go back, you can go back first. I want to stay here with Damao."
"What's there to do with this bastard?"
Being pointed at and scolded by his father-in-law, Xu Damao was embarrassed and a little angry in his heart. No one except He Yuzhu had ever scolded him like this.
"Dad, let's sit down and talk about it. If I do something wrong, I will correct it."
Seeing the aggrieved look on Xu Damao's face, Father Lou became even more angry. Even now, this kid was still pretending.
He sneered and said: "What a change! If I hadn't gone to the doctor to ask about it today, I wouldn't have known that your kid had suffered from a heart disease. Why? I feel like I have a great sense of accomplishment in keeping our family secret."
Bar?"
Xu Damao was shocked, but he could only maintain his composure and said, "Dad, did you misunderstand something? I was hospitalized because that guy Silly Zhu injured me."
"Fuck you! Is it because he made you infertile?"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunder exploding in the minds of Lou Xiao'e and Lou's mother.
Lou Xiao'e turned her head and stared at Xu Damao with a shocked face, and asked tremblingly: "Xu Damao, is what my father said true?"
When Xu Damao saw this situation, he couldn't even admit it.
Lou's father even ran over to ask the doctor, could the doctor deliberately frame him?
He simply acted like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water, and said: "That's right, I just can't have children, but the moth has been with me for several years, and you still want her to remarry."
Lou Xiao'e took a few steps back, then suddenly squatted down and burst into tears.
For a woman, her husband's inability to have children is not enough to cause her to collapse.
But for a long time, Xu Damao has always said that it was her problem, and she felt the same way.
Now she knows that Xu Damao has been lying to her all along, which Lou Xiao'e cannot accept.
Especially under such circumstances, Xu Damao actually went to flirt with other women. What did he think of Lou Xiao'e?
Seeing their daughter's miserable appearance, the Lous were heartbroken.
But it is not unreasonable for Xu Damao to be confident. Given the current situation of the Lou family, there is really nothing that can be done to Xu Damao.
Lou's father pulled Lou Xiao'e up from the ground and said to Lou's mother: "Old woman, let's go!"
Lou's mother glared at Xu Damao fiercely. Just like that just now, she even thought of stabbing him in the heart.
Seeing the three father and daughter of the Lou family leaving, Xu Damao let out a long breath, but he knew in his heart that this matter was not over.
At the same time, he hated He Yuzhu in his heart.
If He Yuzhu hadn't sent him to the hospital, would things have developed like this?
****
"A sneeze, a sneeze!"
He Yuzhu sneezed several times.
The apprentice Ma Hua on the side asked with concern: "Master, are you okay?"
"It's okay, you stew these potatoes according to the method I taught you, and I'll go out for a while."
"Okay!"
After taking off his apron, He Yuzhu walked out holding an aluminum lunch box.
