"Xu Damao, you are really good. I really didn't realize that you could disguise yourself so well that you almost deceived me.
If you want to be the head of the Publicity Department, you don’t want to improve your business capabilities, don’t focus on your job, and just think about these side things.
If you can't reach it on your own, if I take this back door for you, wouldn't I be putting the future of the entire steel rolling mill at risk?
Do you know how much our group of people endured and suffered when they founded the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill? Which one of us didn’t sacrifice his life?
Why is it that when I come to your place, I don’t have the courage and courage that young people should have? I only want to take shortcuts?
Sure enough, I saw you right. You still have the mentality of a small farmer, only caring about your small family and not caring about everyone else. If we are all bugs like you, how can the country make progress?"
Father Lou slapped the table and roared at Xu Damao.
Xu Damao was so shocked by this sudden change that he couldn't speak for a long time. He obviously had an existing relationship, why didn't he leave? He really couldn't figure it out!
And Xiao Zheng from the Publicity Department actually hugged Director Yang’s lap behind his back?
Xu Damao's blood surged immediately, and he retorted despite Lou Xiao'e's obstruction:
"Dad, I... it would be a good thing if I could do something better. Why are you so ignorant, just like Factory Director Yang..."
"You still have the nerve to say that? If you have reached the level of ability, I will naturally do it for you without you having to ask.
But besides some crooked ideas, what else do you have? Are you in the Publicity Department and reading the slogans of the steel rolling mill every day?
But have you read it into the dog's belly? Do you know what virtuous conduct is, and do you know what the spirit of steel is?"
When Father Lou saw that Xu Damao dared to talk back, he became even more angry. He pointed at Xu Damao and said angrily.
Because he was so angry, his whole body couldn't help but tremble. Upon seeing this, Lou Xiao'e and Lou's mother hurried forward to support Lou's father and slowly sat down.
Lou’s mother advised from the side:
"Don't be too angry. Damao is still young after all. It's normal to not understand some things. In a few years, when he becomes more mature, he will naturally understand."
Lou Xiao'e comforted her father and winked at Xu Damao, her expression clearly telling Xu Damao to apologize quickly.
Xu Damao was also very angry at this time, but facing the current scene, even if he was unwilling in every way, he could only apologize at the moment.
Faced with Xu Damao's reluctant apology, Lou's father could only sigh, waved his hands and said:
"Forget it, we don't agree with each other. Xu Damao, you don't have to tell me about your work in the future, and I won't ask you again."
A good meal ended unhappy, and Xu Damao was in a bad mood.
I had been pretending to be a grandson for most of the day, thinking that things would go smoothly today, but in the end, I didn’t say anything about it, and was scolded for being a real grandson.
The more Xu Damao thought about it, the angrier he became, so he took Lou Xiaoe with him until he returned home. No matter how the other party tried to comfort him, he never said a word.
Lou Xiao'e finally lost her patience at this moment and said angrily:
"Xu Damao, you've had enough. It's your fault in the first place. Why did my dad say a few words to you? Are you still trying your best?"
"I asked Lou Xiao'e, why do you always turn your elbows outward for everything? Why are you always not of the same mind as me?
What happened to Silly Zhu is like this, okay, I just think it’s my move that’s too damaging, and you are so noble in character that you can’t stand it.
But in order to make progress, what’s wrong with me wanting to be the head of the Publicity Department? If you don’t go to work, you don’t know how difficult it is for a man to work outside.
So Director Yang is focusing on production and technology, but what's the use? Aren't the kitchen, security department, and publicity department still controlled by Deputy Director Li?
What does Deputy Director Li know? Isn’t it just because of his sleight of hand?
Your dad’s style is no longer popular at all. Let me tell you, your dad’s style is outdated, old and out of date!”
Xu Damao got angry again as he spoke. Seeing Lou Xiao'e's expression relaxed, he continued:
"Your dad is one..."
Before Xu Damao finished speaking, three large yellow croakers appeared in front of Xu Damao.
His words, "Your dad is a stubborn person. If you are so stubborn, why can't you have a baby? And yet he advised me that we only need two people to have a good relationship? Isn't this a double standard?"
He couldn't say anything anymore. He took the big yellow croaker handed over by Lou Xiao'e with trembling hands and asked with a surprised look on his face:
"This is..."
Lou Xiao'e looked helpless, and after a long sigh, she said:
"My mother secretly gave this to me when we left. Although my father scolded you, my mother didn't feel sorry for you, right?
Look, when you left, you didn’t even say hello to her, and you didn’t respond no matter how I called you from behind...
I have nothing wrong with you, Xu Damao. Tell me about you, you are really..."
Xu Damao held these three large yellow croakers, excitedly put his arms around Lou Xiao'e'e's shoulders, gave her face a "squeak", and then said with a smile:
"Hey, you said it's better for you to... be our mother, so I said my mother can't ignore me.
You said it was true. Why didn't you say it earlier? If you had said it earlier, I could have ignored you...
Don’t worry, although your father doesn’t want to have a relationship, these three large yellow croakers should be enough. When the time comes..."
Lou Xiao'e looked at Xu Damao's change from cloudy to sunny, and said angrily:
"Okay, okay, don't say this. I'll thank God if you don't make my parents angry or me angry in the future."
"Hey, okay! Wife, you drink tea, and I will give you a pat on the back!"
Xu Damao was in a very good mood at this time. Although Lou's father was still not willing to help him find a relationship, with these three large yellow croakers, things had turned for the better.
He now understands that as long as Lou Xiao'e and Lou's mother are coaxed, the benefits will be indispensable.
So, he bombarded Lou Xiao'e with a lot of sugar-coated bullets, making the other party smile.
As the sun set, every household began to prepare dinner. Lou Xiaoe also followed Xu Damao's suggestion and got up to go to the vegetable cellar to get cabbage.
Xu Damao was sitting at home, carefully observing the three large yellow croakers in his hands, thinking that they would be delivered to Vice President Li in a few days.
He was really reluctant to part with it for a moment. This heavy texture and beautiful golden color, no wonder so many people are crazy about it...
At this moment, Lou Xiao'e suddenly broke in, startling Xu Damao, and the big yellow croaker in his hand almost fell to the ground.
Lou Xiao'e looked panicked and said:
"Da Mao, our house was robbed. Not a single cabbage stored in the vegetable cellar is gone..."
"What?"
Xu Damao was startled when he heard this, and then rushed out, but he turned back after barely running two steps.
He put the three large yellow croakers in his hand into the cabinet and locked it before running to the vegetable cellar again.
Their courtyard house has been awarded the title of "The Most Harmonious Courtyard" for several years. On weekdays, not even a needle is thrown away, but now there is a vegetable thief.
What's more, the person who stole it was him, the future head of the publicity department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. He was really brave!
Besides, this cabbage only costs two cents a pound and someone steals it? Not even a single piece of cabbage is left? This is simply crazy!
