Siheyuan: Stab at Louzi at the beginning

Chapter 937 I Don’t Have

There are no five hundred swordsmen.

There is no guard either.

All there is is an insignificant explanation.

Last time, the Lin family was able to come and pick him up in person, but this time, they just let Xu Damao leave without any hesitation.

Such a big fuss seems like a joke.

As the end of the year approaches, even the air becomes a little fresher.

The haze that shrouded the city of Sijiu also completely dissipated.

No matter how fierce the open and covert struggles are, as the end of the year approaches, everyone can have a happy new year with peace of mind.

Debt collectors won’t come to collect debts on New Year’s Eve.

The next day, Xu Damao came to the city gate of Sijiu City specifically to wait for a few very important people.

According to news from the external affairs department, Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi returned today.

Also traveling with them was Lu Wanping.

I was in Hong Kong with my wife and children, and now I am back.

He asked another colleague who was on a business trip in Hong Kong to pass on this news.

The time was very punctual. Xu Damao didn't have to wait long before he saw the returning car parked in front of him.

Xu Damao didn't know how Lu Wanping felt when he saw him.

"How did you feel along the way?"

Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi got into Xu Damao's car. The two girls chattered non-stop. They said that seeing Hong Kong and then returning to Beijing were two completely different worlds.

"Great! The world outside is not entirely described in books. I still have to see it with my own eyes..."

After chatting for a while, Xu Damao closed the car door.

Lu Wanping also got out of the car.

"Surprised to see me?"

Looking at Xu Damao, Lu Wanping lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"People in the arena involuntarily."

"There is no such thing as Jianghu. There is no such thing as Jianghu at all."

Xu Damao didn't talk much with Lu Wanping. He got in the car and left.

Some things are already known to me, and it would be hurtful to say them out loud.

Stay on the front line when doing things, and see you in the future.

All the way back to the Jin family, the two sisters Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi never stopped talking, and Xu Damao just had to cooperate and agree with them.

"You two still remember to come back. I thought I wouldn't see you again before I died."

Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi came forward and gave her a good comfort.

At home, I take the initiative to clean the house and cook in the kitchen.

Xu Damao started drinking Lao Jintou's tea again.

"I thought you wouldn't let them come back."

"I'm not a bad guy, and I won't restrict anyone's freedom of movement in the cellar. They can decide where to go and where to stay by themselves."

Old Jin was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

"You sound very innocent, as if it has nothing to do with you. You keep saying that you won't interfere, but you gave them another path to choose. If it weren't for you, would there be so many things going on?"

Seeing that Old Jintou was really a little angry, Xu Damao did not refute but accepted the matter.

"Indeed, if you look at it from this perspective, it is indeed my fault, but there is no other way to deal with this matter. I am afraid that the loophole in Hong Kong will not last long. We have all entered a civilized society, and the historical dregs of concubines will be abolished."

"Yes, the law has been repealed, but what impact does it have? The people who need to be found will still be found."

Xu Damao thought about it and felt that what Old Jintou said made sense.

Abolishing the law of one wife and multiple concubines seems to be equality between men and women and protects the rights of women, but what is the reality?

In fact, it is also harmful to women. In the past, women could still hope to be carried into the family, and a concubine was also a wife, but now if they want to become a "mistress" or "third party", they can forget about it. There is nothing else except endless empty promises, and they will have to live their whole lives without being able to hold their heads up.

It is good for women overall, but it is unfriendly to this group of women.

"Alright, alright, we finally got back today, so stop looking so stern."

"Oh, I regret letting you into the house."

Xu Damao smiled and did not respond.

When the family was sitting together for dinner, Jin Xiu indeed began to talk about her life in Hong Kong.

The implication of his words was to let Old Jintou go.

"Our identities here are not public and people will talk about us. It's more free over there and they are more tolerant of this kind of thing..."

Old Jintou looked as if he wanted to cut two pieces of flesh off Xu Damao's face.

He is so old, and yet you want him to leave his hometown?

Now he is in Beijing, he has status, fame, benefits, and all kinds of welfare benefits.

Going out is totally not worth it.

He was very reluctant, but now his two daughters had just returned and he didn't want to spoil their fun, so he could only express his protest with his eyes at Xu Damao.

Xu Damao just felt a lot of pressure during the meal. The two sisters were chattering, but he didn't listen to anything.

After dinner, I hurried to leave.

It would be better for Old Jintou to bear this kind of annoying talk himself.

When he returned to the courtyard, Xu Damao didn't expect that Lu Wanping was waiting for him at the gate.

This is a lot of unnecessary stuff.

Before he spoke, Xu Damao kindly reminded him, "What happened in the past is in the past. There's no point in bringing it up again. It's good like this now. I'll need your help when I go to Hong Kong in the future."

I don’t know whether Xu Damao’s words touched him or he figured it out himself.

After agreeing with a few words, he left in a hurry.

When Li Tianjiao returned home, he was sitting next to Qin Huairu and learning how to steam buns.

"I said, what are you two doing?"

"Have you sent the two sisters home? I want to learn how to steam buns. I heard from people in the hospital that they steam buns in advance for the New Year, and they steam more buns to prevent going without buns to eat."

Xu Damao:......

"That's because we have to visit relatives and don't have time to steam buns, so we steam some more buns to store. We don't need them. Freshly steamed buns are better. Besides...why don't you learn it? You won't need it anyway."

Poor families ate corn flour, ordinary families ate two-grain flour, and only wealthy families could afford white flour. Steaming a lot of steamed buns is a luxury nowadays.

"Who said I can't use it? Do you want..."

Li Tianjiao stopped talking halfway and said, "Then I won't learn anymore. What's the situation of those two sisters now?"

"Oh, don't mention it. Lou Xiao'e is too good to them. She is now doing their father's work at home. She wants to move directly over."

"I've learned about Old Jintou. He's quite old-fashioned and traditional. At his age, he probably won't agree."

"Who says it's not true? They say he should go and enjoy himself, but little do they know that he is happy in the Forty-Nine City."

"Do you want everyone to go to Xiangjiang?"

Xu Damao:......

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense, they wanted to go, I didn't force them..."
