The next afternoon there was a movie show at the Thermos Factory, and Xu Damao got a few good seats.
Compared with the steel rolling mill, the thermos factory is a small unit and does not have the conditions to show movies.
Therefore, every time a movie is shown, the publicity department of a major studio is invited to come.
Every time Xu Damao goes to his brother's workplace for a movie screening, he is treated very well, and a meal is the basic standard.
This time he specially arranged Liu Liping's position next to the projector.
While tinkering with the projector, I started chatting with Liu Liping.
It is both an introduction to the video and an introduction to myself.
Out of politeness, Liu Liping chatted with him for a few words.
Unexpectedly, I found that Xu Damao was very polite when he spoke, and his views on movies and the world were very similar to mine.
Slowly we let go of the barriers and started chatting together.
If Xu Damao doesn't have anything else, he just has a knack for seducing little girls and always gets her way.
To deal with Qin Jingru, who has never seen the world and values material things, he just throws money at her.
Liu Liping, who treats progressive thoughts and a noble nature, discusses her thoughts and opinions like a modest gentleman.
After watching a movie, Liu Liping didn't remember anything about her performance, but she knew a lot about Xu Damao.
Xu Damao himself narrated that his parents moved back to the countryside.
His salary is high, his job is promising, he is popular in the hospital, and everyone praises him.
The only drawback is that my daughter-in-law, who has just been married for three months, is too aggressive. She is married but not in love.
I was forced to get married because of the pressure from Qin Huairu and Shazhu, but now I regret it, and so on.
These were compiled by Xu Damao.
But it is well compiled and there is no logical conflict at all.
In particular, Xu Damao is so good at telling lies that people who don't know him well will not doubt him.
It just so happened that Liu Liping didn't really understand Xu Damao.
Not only did he believe it to be true, but he also felt aggrieved for him, feeling that Qin Huairu and Shazhu had gone too far in forcing him to marry Qin Jingru.
"Da Mao, this is a new era. Marriage and love are both free. Why don't you resist?"
Xu Damao sighed: "I haven't met the right person, so I just accepted my fate. I go back every day without saying a word to Qin Jingru. My life is meaningless. You are right, I should resist."
Liu Liping said: "Yes, we must say no to feudal ideas and take a step of our own!"
Xu Damao nodded and said: "What you said made me understand instantly. What I used to do was just waste my life."
"It's nothing. As young people in the new era, we should learn to change!"
"Well, you are right. Do you have time tomorrow? I would like to treat you to a meal tonight. Thank you for your suggestion."
Liu Liping smiled generously and said, "Okay, where can we meet?"
"I'll come find you at half past five!"
Xu Damao was so happy that he hummed a ditty on the way home and kept singing when he got inside.
Qin Jingru asked with a smile: "Da Mao, why are you so happy?"
Xu Damao said disdainfully: "I don't understand even if I tell you. Please give me a glass of water."
"Um!"
Qin Jingru quickly poured a glass of hot water.
Xu Damao was having fun while drinking, already fantasizing about his marriage to Liu Liping.
But things are fickle and unexpected things always happen.
At noon the next day, Liu Liping went to the street to do errands and chatted with Lou Xiao'e.
I accidentally mentioned Xu Damao's pitiful and irritating marriage.
"Sister Xiao'e, you said it's true that Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu in your courtyard plotted against Xu Damao in order to give their sister a city household registration. They only kindly invited Qin Jingru to have a meal, but they were forced to marry Qin Jingru. Alas, really, now they have
There are also forced marriages, which makes the couple married but not in love, and fighting each other every day."
Lou Xiao'e heard this in confusion.
"Li Ping, what are you talking about? Who told you that?"
"Xu Damao?"
"Ah?! Why are you chatting with him?"
"He went to our kettle factory to show a movie yesterday, and we chatted for a while."
Lou Xiao'e shook her head and said with a smile: "Don't listen to him teasing you, the truth is not like that. When Qin Jingru first came to the courtyard, He Yuzhu, Xu Damao and Liu Guangtian were all interesting, but in the end Xu Damao beat him to it, and the two of them did not have a cold war.
So in love!"
Liu Liping's eyes widened in disbelief, "Really?"
"Of course, I made a joke not long ago because I was planning to have a child. The noise was too loud and disturbed the residents."
"Ah? Then...why did Xu Damao say that to me?"
"Uh... I don't know, maybe I just want to tease you."
At this time, Aunt Liu also came over and told Xu Damao and Qin Jingru about their free love.
Indeed, it was not forced as Xu Damao said, but rather something he actively strived for.
Liu Liping understood.
Xu Damao was eating from the bowl and thinking about the pot. After seeing himself, he was overjoyed with the new and disliked the old, and wanted to abandon his married wife.
She felt shameful for this kind of behavior, and they would definitely not have dinner together tonight.
After get off work, Xu Damao rode his bicycle to the kettle factory.
As a result, Liu Liping directly rejected his invitation.
"Comrade Xu Damao, since you and your wife are in a free love relationship, you should keep the fruits of your love and don't like the new and dislike the old, let alone deceive others with lies!"
"Ah?! This... what's going on with this, Liping, have you heard anyone say bad things about me? Is it Aunt Liu?"
Seeing that the good thing had come to nothing, Xu Damao seemed to have lost his soul.
Liu Liping said: "Aunt Liu no longer cares about the marriage in your hospital. No one said anything bad about you. On the contrary, she explained for you that you were joking to tease me, but I think you have a wife in your family who can love and marry freely.
Just don’t go out to eat with other girls casually.”
Xu Damao rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Hey hey hey, it's indeed a misunderstanding. I'm really teasing you. In fact, I'm here to do something and tell you by the way."
Xu Damao left in dejection, feeling very angry at the person who had ruined his good deeds.
I went to the sub-district office to find out who was the matchmaker in the courtyard now, and found out that it was Lou Xiao'e, and Liu Liping had also been here at noon.
Xu Damao understood instantly that it was Lou Xiao'e who had leaked his information.
No matter whether it is intentional or not, it is not okay to ruin your own good deeds.
He was afraid of Lin Zhen, but he despised Lou Xiao'e from the bottom of his heart.
On the surface Xu Damao didn't dare to do anything, but secretly he was very courageous.
When I got home at night, I tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep.
The more things he can't get, the more greedy he becomes.
While fantasizing about Liu Liping's goodness, she hated Qin Jingru's dirtiness.
In my heart, I was even more angry at Lou Xiao'e for ruining his good deeds.
The more Xu Damao thought about it, the angrier he became and he sat up immediately.
I muttered in my heart: Even if everyone in the courtyard bullies me, it's not your turn as a capitalist's daughter to ruin my good deeds, huh! On the surface, I can't beat your man, but behind my back, I'm not afraid!
Xu Damao quietly got up, turned on the light, took out a pen and paper, and in ten minutes, he wrote a letter of complaint to the district.
A proud smile appeared on his face, and he thought to himself: Lin Zhen, don't blame me for being rude, blame you for marrying a capitalist's daughter, blame me for living a good life in the courtyard!
