Chapter 221 Liu Lan’s debut in the courtyard
“Xu Damao is on a blind date!”
Zhang Gangzhu winked, his expression looking very strange.
Li Aiguo’s eyes widened.
As soon as Xu Damao came up with the idea, the Xu family found the young widow quickly enough.
It’s just a blind date inside the house. Is it necessary for so many people to be gathered outside?
Asked curiously.
“Which one is it?”
In the crowd.
The corner of Jia Dongxu's mouth curled up with a hint of contempt, imitating Xu Damao's example, he raised his voice and said in a strange voice, "Xu Damao wants to marry the little widow Liu Lan!"
Maybe he was worried that Li Aiguo didn't know who Liu Lan was.
Specially explained: "Liu Lan is a helper in the canteen of the steel rolling mill. I heard Sha Zhu said before that Liu Lan was having an affair with Deputy Director Li!"
As soon as these words came out.
The scene suddenly burst into laughter.
It can be seen that everyone has heard of Liu Lan's romantic story.
Jia Dongxu rarely gets any response from people in the courtyard.
At this time, I became more energetic.
Said loudly: "Xu Damao is also very powerful. He just broke up with the eldest daughter of the Lou family, and he became the brother of Deputy Factory Director Li. I really admire him."
Side by side. Combat
Howling guy, I haven’t seen you for a few days, Jia Dongxu can still use idioms.
inside the house.
Xu Damao is introducing the situation of the Xu family to Liu Lan.
One is in love, the other is intentional. The two of them were talking passionately, and they were about to get married.
Hearing the sound outside, his face suddenly darkened.
Xu Damao is a projectionist at the steel rolling mill and has heard about Liu Lan and Deputy Director Li before.
But I didn’t pay much attention.
After all, Liu Lan didn’t have a date with him at that time.
It is Liu Lan’s freedom to choose whom to follow.
There is no way, we Damao have fun and see well, we are just so aware.
But Liu Lan couldn't help but care.
If the bad reputation spreads, she will have to be stabbed in the spine in the future. How can she still live in the courtyard?
Liu Lan Hao bit her lips tightly and turned pale.
The arm holding the table was also trembling slightly, looking pitiful.
"Liu Lan, don't worry, I believe you." Xu Damao saw it in his eyes, felt pain in his heart, and said through gritted teeth.
"Da Mao, believe me. If you don't believe me, if you live here in the future, you will definitely attract rumors."
Liu Lan raised her head and smiled miserably at him. : "I think we should forget it, Damao, you are a good person, but we are not destined to be together."
This is the first time that Xu Damao has been issued a good person card.
The anger level in my heart rose steadily, directly breaking the meter.
"Just wait, I will definitely clear your name today."
Liu Lan thought that Xu Damao would rush out and give Jia Dongxu two big mouths.
Seeing him rushing into the kitchen, I was filled with doubts.
When he saw Xu Damao coming out with a stainless steel pot, his eyes widened in shock.
Wait and follow Xu Damao out of the house.
Liu Lan couldn't help laughing when she saw Xu Damao holding a stainless steel pot and slamming it on Jia Dongxu's head.
However.
She quickly realized the power of stainless steel pots.
Faced with Xu Damao's stainless steel pot, Jia Dongxu could only run away with his head in his arms, without a chance to fight back.
Unfortunately, Xu Damao was already in a violent state at this time, and his combat power soared.
He caught up with Jia Dongxu in a few steps.
Dang Dang Dang.
Along with the crisp sounds, big bumps appeared on Jia Dongxu's forehead.
From a distance, it looks like a head of curly black hair, which looks like the black sheep, the brother of the Pleasant Goat.
This was the first time Li Aiguo saw Xu Damao using a stainless steel pot, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
Absolutely.
Da Mao is now a scapegoat!
“I’ll let you talk nonsense!”
“I’ll let you talk nonsense!”
“I’ll let you”
“.”
Both Jia Dongxu and Xu Damao are not good people. The onlookers are happy to watch the fun, so naturally they will not stop them.
Qin Huairu saw Jia Dongxu being punished and screaming, but she didn't dare to come forward to help, so she could only invite Yi Zhonghai over.
Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly darkened when he saw Xu Damao holding a stainless steel pot again.
Strode over and grabbed his hand and neck: "Xu Damao, I taught you a lesson last time, but you still dare to commit violence, deliberately beat your neighbors, and destroy the unity in the compound. Today you must It’s impossible to send you to the street.”
Just kidding, I’ll beat you twice in three days.
If this continues, Jia Dongxu will be beaten into an idiot before he can provide for him in old age.
When the time comes, it’s still unclear who will support whom.
Also.
Xu Damao is involved with the Lou family. If he takes the opportunity to teach Xu Damao a lesson, it will also reflect his firm stance from the side.
Won praise from Deputy Director Li.
A win-win situation means that Yi Zhonghai wins twice.
Just
Just when Xu Damao was pinched by Yi Zhonghai's iron pincers, his face turned red and his neck became thick.
A cold voice came from the side.
"Yi Zhonghai, as a big man, you rush over to teach Xu Damao a lesson without knowing the truth of the matter. Isn't it inappropriate?"
Hearing this voice, Yi Zhonghai's heart skipped a beat and his expression changed drastically.
Turning around, I saw that Li Aiguo had already walked over at some point, with his hands behind his back.
Yi Zhonghai was a little wary of Li Aiguo. He let go of his hand and said coldly: "Li Aiguo, this matter has nothing to do with you."
"I am also a resident of the courtyard. What happens in the courtyard, how can I Does it have nothing to do with me?" Li Aiguo stood there with his arms folded like a big tree.
"The courtyard is the courtyard for all our residents, not your uncle."
The words are sharp.
The tone is serious.
Irrefutable.
Yi Zhonghai was so scolded that his face turned red and his neck became thick.
Ouch. My heart hurts again.
I haven’t seen you for a few days. I forgot that Li Aiguo is the best at criticizing me.
Xu Damao suddenly became happy when he saw that Yi Zhonghai was speechless.
To deal with Yi Zhonghai, Li Aiguo really had to come forward in person.
Xu Damao quickly hid behind Li Aiguo.
He waved his fist at Yi Zhonghai. When he saw Yi Zhonghai's eyes widening, he was frightened and shrank back.
Nima, you treat labor and capital as a big tree.
Li Aiguo didn't bother to argue with Xu Damao at this moment.
Waving at Liu Lan: "Comrade, your name is Liu Lan? Come, you are the person involved in this matter and have the most say. Explain it to the senior man of our courtyard."
< br>Liu Lan heard Xu Damao mention Li Aiguo.
Know that he is a train driver.
Now that I see Li Aiguo dare to face Yi Zhonghai alone, I feel a little impressed.
Xu Damao is far behind.
In front of Jia Dongxu, he was like a scumbag, but in front of Yi Zhonghai, he was like a mouse meeting a cat.
Not at all like a man.
Liu Lan has also seen the world.
Stretched the corners of his clothes, adjusted his collar, and smoothed his hair to make himself look bright, and then he walked forward slowly.
She stood in front of Yi Zhonghai in a calm mood, with a smile on her face:
"Master, you may also know me."
Yi Zhonghai saw Liu Lan appearing here.
I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and smiled awkwardly: "It's Miss Liu Lan, you are"
"I'm talking about a date with Xu Damao now."
Liu Lan said openly: "We were introduced by Director Zhang of the Women's Federation of the Steel Rolling Mill, and then we got together."
Yi Zhonghai's expression became strange.
A while ago he went to give gifts to Deputy Director Li.
I also met Liu Lan in Deputy Director Li’s office.
The atmosphere in the office was very wrong at that time.
In just a few days, Liu Lan became Xu Damao's target.
The world is changing so fast.
"Well, then I congratulate you."
"Thank you."
Liu Lan suddenly pointed out Looking at Jia Dongxu, he said: "Master, just now Jia Dongxu falsely accused me of having an improper relationship with Deputy Factory Director Li!"
As soon as these words came out.
Yi Zhonghai’s expression changed suddenly.
Regardless of whether Liu Lan has that kind of relationship with Deputy Factory Director Li, talking about the leader behind his back is a taboo.
If these words reach the ears of Deputy Director Li, his efforts will be in vain.
Recently, by slandering Lou Zhenhua, Yi Zhonghai has established a relationship with Deputy Director Li.
It's just that Jia Dongxu is his apprentice, so he still needs to be protected. Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly: "Miss Liu Lan, don't be angry, I will definitely give you an explanation."
He strode up to Jia Dongxu and asked with a cold face: "Dongxu, how can you talk nonsense! Apologize to Comrade Liu Lan quickly!"
"What nonsense, this is what Shazhu told me personally. Shazhu saw Liu Lan and Deputy Director Li with his own eyes In the small warehouse of the cafeteria"
Jia Dongxu said unconvinced.
Halfway through the words, Yi Zhonghai was so shocked that his scalp went numb, and he stretched out his hand and slapped Jia Dongxu hard in the face.
Pop!
The sound of slaps and cheeks colliding was particularly clear in the silent courtyard.
The onlookers were shocked.
Ever since Jia Dongxu became Yi Zhonghai's apprentice, Yi Zhonghai treated him more like his own son and never laid a finger on him.
"Hit me!" Jia Dongxu covered his face and looked at Yi Zhonghai in disbelief.
After these years of cultivation, he had long regarded Yi Zhonghai as his biological father.
How can a father beat his son?
It hit Jia Dongxu on the face and hurt Yi Zhonghai in his heart.
The corner of Yi Zhonghai's mouth twitched twice, and he said with a straight face: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, see how I deal with you!"
"I am talking nonsense, it is clearly" Jia Dongxu Feel aggrieved.
"Dongxu, listen to your master."
Qin Huairu saw the clues and quickly stepped forward and pulled Jia Dongxu aside.
Then he walked up to Liu Lan and said with a smile: "Sister, the man in my family is not sensible. He listened to other people's nonsense and offended you. You are a big man. You are a big man." For the sake of the neighbors in the hospital, let’s spare him this time.”
Just one simple sentence absolved Jia Dongxu of his guilt.
He also reminded Liu Lan that from now on we will all live in the same compound, and if we look up but not look down, it will destroy the harmony among the neighbors.
A pun.
Li Aiguo praised: After not seeing each other for a few days, Qin Huairu’s rank has improved a lot.
The sun is shining brightly in the courtyard in the morning.
A breeze came out, and the leaves of the old camphor tree shook to pieces, leaving spots of light on the ground.
Under the big tree.
A war between two little widows has officially begun!
The residents also turned their attention to Liu Lan.
I want to see how this little widow who is about to move into the courtyard will accept the move.
Liu Lan took a deep look at Qin Huairu, pursed her lips and smiled:
"I have long heard that Jia Dongxu has a good wife. Although she is from a rural area and has no education or food background, she is extremely smart. When I see her today, she is indeed extraordinary."
Critical attack!
Critical hit! !
Liu Lan directly hit Qin Huairu's weakness - a rural girl with no education and no food background!
Qin Huairu's face turned pale at that time, and her fingertips were clenched into her flesh.
This is not over yet, Liu Lan continued to take advantage of the momentum and pursue: "Jia Dongxu is also in his twenties. If you want to say that he is acting like a child, I understand."
"You are now To say he is ignorant, does that mean he looks down on him, or does he look down on me? "
Qin Huairu originally wanted Liu Lan to take a step back and let the matter go.
But she didn't think about it carefully. This was related to Liu Lan's reputation.
Liu Lan wanted to use Jia Dongxu to scare the monkeys and warn those residents not to bite people behind their backs in the future.
How could he let Jia Dongxu go?
Seeing Liu Lan's resolute attitude, Qin Huairu had no choice but to grit his teeth and asked, "What do you want?"
"Apologise! I want Jia Dongxu to apologize to me in public! Recovery My reputation."
Liu Lan straightened her chest, and the sun shone through the leaves, making her look particularly bright.
Qin Huairu knew Jia Dongxu’s temperament.
I don’t have much ability, but I want to save face.
We can only turn to Yi Zhonghai for help.
But the matter involves Deputy Director Li, and Yi Zhonghai is trying to clear up the relationship, so how can he help Jia Dongxu.
He nodded and said: "Since Dongxu said nonsense, he should apologize."
Hearing this, Jia Dongxu felt very heavy. Even the master stopped taking care of him.
But he didn't have time to think about it now. He walked up to Liu Lan and said through gritted teeth: "Comrade Liu Lan, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have talked nonsense. I hope you can forgive me."
Liu Lan He raised his head proudly and said with a smile: "I'm still thinking about that, Jia Dongxu, remember from now on, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense."
"Yes, yes, yes"
Jia Dongxu apologized to a little widow in public. At this time, he was so embarrassed that he couldn't even lift his head. He turned around and ran away staggeringly.
Qin Huairu, who had been scolded by Liu Lan just now, acted as if nothing was wrong and stretched out her hand to shake Liu Lan's hand: "Comrade Liu Lan, from now on we will all be in the same compound. Please help me and take care of me.”
Liu Lan turned and left without waiting for an answer.
Liu Lan looked at Qin Huairu's back and felt that this little wife was extraordinary.
In this battle, the little widow Liu Lan won the final victory.
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Yi Zhonghai stood up again, folded his hands and shouted:
"Everyone has seen what happened just now. Never discuss other people's rights and wrongs behind their backs in the future."
"Okay, we have to work tomorrow. Let's go back and rest early, so as not to delay production."
The residents were satisfied after eating a lot of melon, talking in low voices, and dispersed.
They all feel that Liu Lan, the little widow, is not simple.
It’s getting late.
Li Aiguo is also preparing to go back to the house to continue writing.
Liu Lan stepped forward, stopped him, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Hello, you are Comrade Li Aiguo. I owe everything to you today."
"You're welcome. , we will all be neighbors from now on.”
Li Aiguo has no objection to Liu Lan.
She had a relationship with Deputy Factory Director Yang, and was forced to do so.
After all, it is not easy for a young widow to support several children these days.
We are all neighbors from now on, so we naturally have to have a good relationship.
Close the door.
Xu Damao gave Liu Lan a thumbs up: "Daughter-in-law, you were so awesome just now. Qin Huairu was speechless by you."
Liu Lan looked at Xu Damao quietly. , suddenly said: "Don't you want to ask, do I have that kind of relationship with Deputy Director Li?"
In the dark room.
Xu Damao was silent for a moment, took out a cigarette from his pocket, struck a match and lit it.
"I don't want to ask, I just want you to live a good life with me from now on."
"Even if you don't ask, I have to tell you!" Liu Lan reached out and took the cigarette from Xu Damao's mouth He pulled it out and threw it on the ground.
Looking at him closely: "I have nothing to do with Deputy Director Li! He did pester me and promised me benefits, but I rejected them all."
The words fell. , and the room fell into silence again.
Just when Liu Lan was about to continue explaining, Xu Damao suddenly laughed: "Daughter-in-law, how could I not believe you!"
Liu Lan relaxed.
The more contact you have with Xu Damao.
She felt more and more that Xu Damao was the man suitable for her.
Suitable does not necessarily mean like, which is a bit regretful.
The last grudge between the two was temporarily eliminated, and they began to prepare for the marriage.
The Xu family had prepared a lot of furniture before, but there was no need to buy any more.
The only thing that dissatisfied Liu Lan was that the Liu family only had two rooms.
In the past, the Xu family planned based on Lou Xiao'e's situation.
Xu Damao and Lou Xiaoe live here in a very spacious place.
Even if you have a baby and can't live in it, you can still buy a private house with Lou Zhenhua's help.
Now it is Liu Lan, and Liu Lan has three children, so it seems a bit crowded.
"Da Mao, look at the middle, should we build another partition?"
"Partition? Patriotic country has just been renovated. I think it's pretty good. Let's go and visit. If you like it, I’ll ask him for help.”
Xu Damao knocked on Li Aiguo’s door with Liu Lan.
After learning the purpose of their visit, Li Aiguo put down his book and led the two of them around.
Liu Lan's eyes shone when she saw it, and she immediately said that she wanted Xu Damao to follow the same example and tidy up the house according to the way Li loved his country.
Xu Damao regretted a little.
Li Aiguo spent dozens of dollars cleaning up the house, and he was reluctant to part with the money.
But in front of Liu Lan, I could only agree.
After seeing off Liu Lan, Xu Damao came to Li's house again carrying a bottle of wine and a plate of peanuts.
Looking at his look, Li Aiguo knew that he had something to ask for.
Take a sip of wine, pop a peanut into your mouth, and smile.
"Da Mao, we are neighbors. If you have something to say, just say it directly, not to your mother-in-law or mother."
Xu Damao said his thoughts with a smile.
"You mean, spend less money and tidy up the house to be similar to my home?" Li Aiguo frowned.
"That's what I mean. I know you have a lot of ideas."
Li Aiguo thought for a moment and smiled: "Don't tell me, there is really a way. Houses that seem to be decorated the same, use different The price of materials can vary by more than half."
Li Aiguo stood up and patted the partition wall: "I have a double brick wall using cement. If you change it to a single brick wall and use lime, It can save more than half.
And don’t buy that sanitary skirt.
The ceiling can be replaced by canvas. It only costs about thirty yuan.
The specific price will not be determined until the construction team inspects the site. "
"Hi, this relationship is great. The construction team you worked for last time was pretty good. Please help me contact them. "Xu Damao's eyes widened in excitement.
