Siheyuan: I Really Think That Honest People Are Easy To Bully.

Chapter 208: Xu Damao, The Troublemaker, A Variable Appears

Time flies by so fast, before I know it, August is over and now it’s September.

Since Yan Jiecheng gave his son a full moon, life in the courtyard has returned to normal. Every day he is either not going to work or worrying about trivial matters in life.

As for Jiang Xiao'e's desire to find Wang Jianjun to treat Xu Damao, she found out about Wang Jianjun's decision the next day. Although she was a little disappointed, she had nothing to blame.

After all, the relationship between Xu Damao and Wang Jianjun is indeed not good. Although it is not as good as the ones in the Intermediate Court, it is indeed a bit fanciful to want him to help so easily.

However, Lou Xiao'e naturally would not give up. She originally wanted Xu Damao to go to her home with her to seek medical treatment, but what a coincidence, at this time, the factory sent Xu Damao to the countryside to show movies to several communes.

There is no other way. Seeking medical treatment can only be put on hold for the time being.

But one thing is strange, that is, her relationship with Yu Li did not become estranged because of her plea to Wang Jianjun last time, but instead became closer and closer.

Wang Jianjun had seen her at home several times when he was off work, but it was fine to chat normally, and there was no need to talk about medical treatment. Jiang Xiao'e also knew this, so she never mentioned it in front of him, maybe because she felt that the relationship was not enough. .

Let’s not talk about the courtyard for now, let’s take a look at Xu Damao’s side first.

Although going to the countryside can be exhausting, he still enjoys it very much. Not only can he make extra money, but he can also see his old friends again. For him, it is simply "a good thing for both people and wealth." "Ah, it's strange to be unhappy.

According to the list of communes given by the factory, Xu Damao arranged the route in advance before setting off. It was clear where to go first and where to go later. After all, he often played movies nearby and knew the addresses.

At the beginning, everything was quite normal. Every time I went to a commune to show a movie, not only would the other party entertain me with good wine and food, but I would also occasionally find opportunities to sneak out and have a tryst with some widows.

Even twice, he almost delayed his trip because of this kind of thing.

On this day, he came to Hongqi Commune, which was also the last stop of his trip to the countryside to show movies. Originally, Xu Damao thought about finishing the movie quickly and returning to the city after getting the benefits. However, the unexpected appearance of 373 people made him suddenly change his mind. idea.

"Projectionist Tongzhi, I heard that after completing the projection task in our commune, you are going to return to the city. I have a heartfelt request, and I hope you can consider it."

It was an unspoken rule to entertain the projectionist before showing the movie. While Xu Damao was eating and thinking about what excuse he should use to stay for an extra day or two, the commune secretary suddenly spoke.

"Secretary, just tell me, as long as I, Xu Damao, can do it, I will definitely help."

No matter what his business is, just talk about it first and then talk about it. This will also make him appear to be righteous.

"Thank you so much. That's what I'm thinking. Could you please show a movie tomorrow after the show tonight? Don't worry, I'll call and communicate with you at the steel rolling mill. I promise I won't let you subject to any punishment."

As soon as Xu Damao heard this, he immediately felt happy. It was true that someone would give him a pillow when he fell asleep. However, his face did not show any happy thoughts, and instead showed a trace of tangled dark color.

"Secretary Tian, ​​it stands to reason that you have spoken in person, so I have to give you this face no matter what. But I already promised my wife before I left. When I return to the city, I will accompany her to play and go shopping."

"If I agree to this, it will be like letting my wife go, and I won't be afraid of your ridicule. My wife has always been in charge of my family. How can I still enjoy my good fruits after I go back?"

This really takes thick-skinned to the extreme. In order to get more benefits, a man will lose his shame.

The commune secretary had to deal with all kinds of people every day. As soon as he heard Xu Damao's words, he knew what to do. He didn't even think about having sex for free, so he just started talking.

"Comrade projectionist, do you think this will work? Let you show one more movie. It will definitely not be in vain. When you leave to return to the city tomorrow night, we will prepare a generous gift for you. Think of it as a gift to your wife. I apologized."

"Oops! Look at what you said, what does it mean to apologize or not to apologize? You know the secretary, what's the crime for accompanying her? Then let's just let this matter go. I will show another movie tomorrow to ensure that the folks will have a good time watching it. ”

After the goal was achieved, Xu Damao changed his expression instantly. Although he said no, Secretary Tian knew that if he was not prepared this time, it would be impossible to do such a thing in the future, so he still Gotta give.

"Then I would like to thank you on behalf of all the fellow villagers, comrade projectionist."

"You are too polite, Secretary Tian. This is what I should do. I have finished eating, so I will go out and prepare well first, so that the screening effect will be better when it starts.

In fact, all the preparations for the screening were completed before dinner. The reason why I said this was to make Secretary Tian happy, and his little benefit was not in vain.

"Thank you for your hard work, comrade projectionist. I will go and inform the villagers that the movie will start soon."

After separating from the commune secretary, Xu Damao quickly arrived at the screening venue. However, he did not go to the projector. Instead, he took advantage of the fact that it was not completely dark yet and was observing something around. Soon he found the target. .

"Sister Jingru, I didn't expect to meet you here? Is your home located in Hongqi Commune?"

"Who are you?"

Not sure whether it was getting dark or whether he really didn't remember Xu Damao, Qin Jingru didn't recognize him at first sight.

"I'm Xu Damao. I live in the same courtyard with your sister Qin Huairu. You won't forget it so quickly, right? I even said hello to you in the alley outside the courtyard."

"Ah, oh, I remembered it when you said that, so why did you come here?"

In fact, Qin Jingru really didn't remember that she had said hello to this person named Xu Damao, but if the other person could tell her sister Qin Huairu's name, it should be correct, so she pretended to just remember it and asked casually. One sentence.

"I'm here to show a movie to your commune. Let me introduce you formally. My name is Xu Damao, a film projectionist at the steel rolling mill. You can call me by my name or Brother Xu.

"So that's it. Brother Xu, you are really awesome. By the way, are you familiar with my sister and the others, and that Liu Guangtian behind you?"

After finally meeting an "acquaintance" outside, Qin Jingru's "little cleverness" came in handy immediately, and she directly asked Xu Damao to inquire. After all, everyone knew that the matchmaker's words were too watery.

"That's so familiar. Your brother-in-law Shazhu and I have been "playing" since we were little. As for Liu Guangtian, I also live in the backyard and am a neighbor of his family. Do you think I know him well? Woolen cloth?"

"But now is not the time to talk about this. I will show a movie here tomorrow night. Come over early then. If you want to know, I will tell you. Now I have to go to the movie. By the way, you follow me to the front Come on, just sit there and watch the effect."

After successfully getting "acquainted", Xu Damao said nothing more. One was that time did not allow, and the other was that the expectations had not been maximized.

"Thank you Brother Xu Da (cabc), you are so kind. When we become neighbors in the future, I will thank you again."

"Let's talk about this later. Let's go over first. Everyone has been waiting for a long time."

"good."

Xu Damao didn't care at all about Qin Jingru's verbal thanks. Today's incident was a bit sudden, so he had to think carefully about how to deal with Qin Jingru's relationship.

The reason why he struck up a conversation just now was partly because he was driven by his lustful instinct. After all, Qin Jingru has dressed up as a "city dweller", and coupled with her youthful age, she is still very attractive to Xu Damao.

In addition, he just wanted to talk to Silly Zhu. After all, Qin Jingru could be regarded as his sister-in-law.

After placing Qin Jingru on the stool next to him, Xu Damao began to play the movie seriously.

There were no problems in the whole process. When it comes to business, he is still very good. After all, he is a foodie.

"Jingru, remember to come early tomorrow night, and be careful when you go back at night."

"It's okay, Brother Xu, this place is very close to our village, and there are many people from the same village on the road.

"Then I'm relieved, we'll see you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow, Brother Xu."

After the movie ended, Xu Damao pretended to be concerned and told Qin Jingru a few words, and the relationship between the two became closer.

The day passed quickly.

In the afternoon of the next day, not long after lunch, Qin Jingru came here to see Xu Damao. It seemed that he had many questions to answer.

"Brother Xu, are you free right now? I want to know more about Liu Guangtian and his family situation."

"I always have time before the movie. If you want to know more about it, just ask. We are so destined, and I will definitely tell you the truth."

Sitting in a shady place in the main square, the two chatted directly.

"Then tell me about Liu Guangtian's job and income? My sister didn't even tell me carefully, she just said that he has a job and his income is not bad."

"Did your sister really say that? Isn't this lying to you? It's true that Liu Guangtian has a job, but as far as I know, he is still an apprentice and his monthly income is less than 20 yuan. In our case, That compound is definitely the one with the lowest income."

Xu Damao was not talking nonsense. After all, it could be verified in the future. However, the disdainful tone when he spoke made Qin Ru suddenly have many other thoughts in his heart.

"What about his father? I heard he is a seventh-level blacksmith in the factory. His monthly income is almost eighty yuan."

"This is true, but your sister must have never told you the true situation of their family, right?"

As soon as he heard this, he knew that Xu Damao wanted to guide him in other directions.

"What's the real situation?"

"The real situation is that even though Liu Guangtian's father has a very high income, his family really doesn't have any savings. In the past two years, they basically emptied all their wealth in order to marry their eldest son.

"Ah...? Is there such a thing? It's impossible, it's just a wedding, how can you spend so much money?"

Qin Jingru's mind has not yet broken away from the thoughts of the countryside. She thinks that getting married will only cost a hundred and eighty yuan at most. This is still a rich person. If you are a poor person, you can get married for a few dozen yuan.

With a monthly salary of eighty yuan, I could save hundreds or even thousands of dollars in savings. How could I spend it all after getting married?

"You don't know this, because the eldest son's partner is in a good family, and he is also a regular employee, so he has high requirements. Whether it is betrothal gifts, furniture, banquets, etc., they all have to be the best, so... ....."

Xu Damao didn't bother to say the next words. Anyone who wasn't a fool knew what it meant, and Qin Jingru obviously didn't.

She just felt shocked, and at the same time she felt worthless for herself.

She is also the daughter-in-law of the Liu family. Others can ask for so much. How come she is given away fifteen yuan by her? This is a huge difference.

"Jingru, what are you thinking about? You are so lost in thought that even if I call you

I didn’t agree, is there anything else you want to know?”

Seeing that Qin Jingru didn't speak for a long time, Xu Damao knew that his goal was achieved, but he still asked pretending to be concerned.

"Ah...oh, Brother Xu, I don't have anything to ask for now. I'll come back to you when I think of it. Thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, I would still be asking you a lot of things.

I was kept in the dark. I still have something to do at home, so I’ll leave first. "

"Well, when you go to the city, if you don't understand anything, you can come to me, but you can't let others see it. After all, exposing your neighbor's shortcomings is easy to talk about but not easy to hear.

Do you understand what I mean?"

"I know. Thank you again, Brother Xu. I'll leave first."

"Well, go ahead and be safe on the road!"

Seeing Qin Jingru walking thoughtfully, Xu Damao was quite satisfied with the result. No matter what would happen next, this marriage would definitely not be so smooth.

Profitable.

Xu Damao, who was very happy, went back to playing with the projection machines while humming a little tune after Qin Jingru left.
