As soon as Lou Xiao'e walked into the deaf old lady's house, the door behind her was closed. When she turned around, she saw He Yuzhu with a distressed face...
He Yuzhu knew that based on Lou Xiao'e's character, she and Xu Damao would definitely have to fight tonight, and Xu Damao dared to do it in front of everyone. I'm afraid it would be even more outrageous when he returned home.
So he went directly to the deaf old lady's house after dinner, so that if there was an emergency, he could rush to Xu Damao's house as soon as possible.
The deaf old lady also seemed quite happy when He Yuzhu arrived. She held He Yuzhu's hand and kept talking.
While responding to the deaf old lady, He Yuzhu used his mind to eavesdrop on the quarrel between Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao. When he heard that Xu Damao mentioned divorce, his heart immediately rose to his throat.
He knew that Xu Damao would definitely divorce Lou Xiao'e after he took office as the head of the Publicity Section, but he didn't expect that he would be so impatient.
After Lou Xiao'e got divorced, she would definitely have to go back to her parents' home, and the criticism from people around her would definitely make her feel wronged. The most important thing is that it would be inconvenient for He Yuzhu to meet people.
But now Abu's yard has not been sorted out yet, and for a while, He Yuzhu really didn't know how to arrange Lou Xiao'e.
"Zhu...Zhu...silly grandson..."
When He Yuzhu was in a panic, the slightly angry call of the deaf old lady brought him back to his senses.
He looked at the angry deaf old lady, and suddenly he had a countermeasure in his mind. He could ask the deaf old lady to take Lou Xiao'e in!
In her previous life, Lou Xiao'e was abandoned by Xu Damao, and she also lived in the deaf old lady's house for a few days, and the two of them became destined.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu said to the deaf old lady:
"Madam, you have to do me a favor and take Lou Xiaoe in for a while..."
This time, when He Yuzhu faced the deaf old lady's inquiry, he did not hide anything anymore, but bluntly told the other party that he wanted to marry Lou Xiao'e.
Even though the deaf old lady had already guessed what her "silly grandson" was thinking on the day she sold food stamps, she was still shocked when she heard He Yuzhu's words.
In fact, it’s not that she thinks Lou Xiao’e is bad, the main reason is that she hopes He Yuzhu can marry a young girl, so she asked the grandmother of the Su family next door to help introduce her.
But she couldn't stand this "silly grandson" who had a soft spot for Lou Xiao'e, so the deaf old lady had no choice but to sigh and express her support for him.
Later, when He Yuzhu heard Lou Xiao'e walking out of the door, he arranged in advance for the deaf old lady to stop him.
Lou Xiao'e was facing He Yuzhu and the deaf old lady at this time. In the end, she couldn't hold back the grievances in her heart and threw herself into the arms of the deaf old lady and cried bitterly...
On the second day, after He Yuzhu finished his busy lunch, he quickly got on his bicycle and planned to go to Abu again, hoping to finalize the house deal as soon as possible.
The main reason is that it is not a long-term solution for Lou Xiao'e to stay in the deaf old lady's house. The deaf old lady lives in the backyard with Xu Damao.
According to Xu Damao's villainous character, once he is discovered, he will definitely take the opportunity to humiliate Lou Xiao'e.
Even if Xu Damao didn't discover it, if other people in the courtyard saw it and asked about it, Lou Xiao'e's temperament would definitely not be willing to say anything more.
Anyway, Xu Damao's promotion banquet was in the evening, and under his guidance, Ma Hua's knife skills also improved by leaps and bounds, so at this moment he could go out and do his own things.
Just when he rushed to Abu's house as quickly as possible and knocked on the door, he unexpectedly discovered that Deng Baoying was also in the yard.
At this time, she was like a curious baby, walking back and forth in the yard, as if watching something strange, her big eyes looking here and meowing there.
As soon as Deng Baoying saw He Yuzhu coming, he happily ran forward and asked:
"Brother Zhuzi, is your courtyard house like this? One family lives in one house, so many people, it must be very lively..."
After He Yuzhu and Abu exchanged a few brief greetings, he lightly tapped Deng Baoying's forehead and said with a smile:
"Why are you free to come here today? Aren't you supposed to be taking piano lessons at this point? Are you skipping class?"
Deng Baoying touched her forehead with her right hand, gave the opponent a pink punch with her left hand and said:
"Where is it? The teacher has something to do today, can you take a break...Uncle Abu said you wanted to buy his house, so I thought it would be fine anyway, so I came over to have a look..."
After Abu and He Yuzhu talked yesterday, they agreed with the other party's food delivery plan.
He can't finish fifty pounds of thin noodles a month alone, not to mention the other party gives him twenty yuan in cash every month.
In this day and age, in addition to strict controls on staple foods, you can still buy a lot of fresh ingredients at the vegetable market.
Even if he doesn't do this job of delivering firewood from now on, he can live much better than most people just relying on this. Anyway, he can feed himself and the whole family will not be hungry.
What's more, the other party also agreed to let him live in the courtyard all the time, and promised that in addition to the main room, he could choose the other penthouses at will. This is already quite sincere.
But Abu was still feeling uneasy, and after much deliberation he came up with a plan. So early this morning, he went directly to find Deng Baoying.
Abu's plan is very simple. He wants Deng Baoying to be a middleman and let He Yuzhu hand over the house payment of 1,500 yuan to Deng Baoying for safekeeping.
From now on, every time He Yuzhu pays off one month's worth of food, Deng Baoying will refund him the corresponding house payment.
Deng Baoying comes from a well-off family and has a good character. She will definitely not covet the fifteen hundred yuan house payment.
Besides, with Deng Baoying backing him in this matter, he was not afraid that He Yuzhu would be naughty.
Deng Baoying was worried these days that He Yuzhu would not come to her house to cook because the steel rolling mill had resumed work. She became even more anxious when she thought that she would not have a reason to see He Yuzhu again in the future.
So when she heard Abu explain the cause and effect, she thought that if this could be done, the poor old man Abu would also have someone to rely on, and Deng Baoying happily agreed.
After Abu and Deng Baoying told He Yuzhu about the plan, He Yuzhu was in trouble. Deng Baoying had no problem at all as the "middleman".
And for fifteen hundred yuan, he could still get it from his previous savings plus what he earned from selling flour.
But he only had so much money in total, and he gave it all to Deng Baoying. He had no money left to hire someone to tidy up the yard or buy furniture.
He Yuzhu's scalp went numb when he thought of the cobwebs and broken furniture in those rooms. He never liked doing such work.
But he couldn't bear to let Lou Xiao'e do it, not to mention that he didn't buy furniture and didn't even have a bed to sleep on. How could Lou Xiao'e live there?
It seems that I can’t be lazy anymore. I still have to go to Pigeon Market to work overtime to earn some extra money after work...
He Yuzhu was thinking to himself when he suddenly felt his arm being grabbed, and then he was pulled aside by Deng Baoying...
