Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

Chapter 91: Lou Xiao'e is heartbroken

The moonlight was dim, illuminating Li Wan'er's face. She lowered her head shyly and expectantly, her fingers twisting unconsciously. Xu Damao looked at her with eyes full of doting and joy. He couldn't help but hold her hand...

Father Li spent one night at Xu's house and hurried home in the morning light. He was in a daze all the way and still couldn't believe that "these two days of upheaval would become reality."

Waiting anxiously at home, Li's mother stared at the road in front of her house. In the golden afterglow, a slightly hunched figure slowly walked towards Li's house.

Looking at the gray hair on his temples and the face that had experienced many vicissitudes of life, Li's mother moistened her eyes and asked in a low voice with sobs: "Dad, did you throw the girl away or promised her to someone else?"

Although what Li Wan'er did would bring shame to the Li family, she was her own flesh and blood after all. Seeing her husband coming back alone, Li's mother still asked worriedly.

Father Li looked at his wife, his eyes like a bonfire in winter, full of warmth and quiet power. A beaming smile appeared on his weathered face, and he took the bag mysteriously and said, "Mother, look."

As he spoke, he opened the cloth bag in his hand, and snow-white flour appeared in front of Li's mother.

"Dad, where did this flour come from? It's so white, and there's not a bit of bran mixed in it." Li's mother asked in surprise.

Father Li turned around and closed the door. He trembled as he reached into his underwear, rummaged around for a while, and took out 10 big black bills. He handed them to Mother Li and said softly, "My dear, this money and flour are all gifts from my wife."

"Yesterday, I attended Wan'er's wedding banquet in Sijiu City, and stayed at my in-laws' house at night. These in-laws are all very particular people, and they really love Wan'er. Now you can rest assured."

Li's mother counted the big black ten in her hand intently and asked with a chuckle, "10 are worth 100 yuan? Our Li family is going to be the richest family in Lijiaao."

Father Li covered Mother Li's mouth alertly and whispered, "You are so ignorant, you are so jumpy..."

Lou Xiao'e, who lived in the courtyard of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang, watched the sky gradually darken, but she did not see Xu Damao coming home. Although he would come home to inform her when he had a surprise mission in the past, she did not hear from him today. She fell asleep with anxiety and worry.

Xu Damao still didn't come back the next day. On the third day, there was no news. Lou Xiao'e, who couldn't see Xu Damao again, became restless and went straight back to the Lou family.

Mother Lou looked at her daughter who looked distracted and said with pity: "Xiao'e, the social atmosphere is so good now, you don't have to worry about any accidents. Maybe there are confidentiality or unexpected work arrangements. If you are really worried, you can go to Xu Damao's parents to ask."

A Mercedes-Benz car stopped at the entrance of the village where Xu Damao's parents lived. Lou Xiao'e took advantage of the moonlight and walked on the quiet road in the suburbs of Beijing, carrying snacks prepared for the old couple. At this time, she was nervous and apologetic, fearing that her excessive worry would disturb the two old people.

Lou Xiao'e approached the Xu family's old house, but she was struggling with indecision in her heart, "Should I knock on the door and go in, or go directly back to the courtyard?" While she was struggling with whether to disturb Xu's parents, bursts of laughter came from the Xu family's house.

"Wan'er, don't always rush to do the work at home. You are getting heavier and heavier, so you must be careful."

"From now on, the housework will be done by your younger sister Xu Daidi and me. You just need to take care of yourself and give birth to the baby safely." After Xu's mother Wu Fangfang finished speaking, her hearty laughter was heard.

"Mom, I'm the daughter-in-law of the Xu family. I'm used to doing housework at my parents' house. If I don't work, I'll feel uncomfortable all over."

"Brother Mao, you are so busy, I also want to do my part for the family." A young woman said virtuously.

"Wan'er, you are so virtuous. It is a blessing for Damao to marry you." Xu's mother Wu Fangfang praised.

"Da Mao, Wan'er's condition is getting worse and worse. You must be careful to control yourself and not hurt the child." Xu's mother Wu Fangfang lectured Xu Damao.

"Mom, I understand. For safety reasons, how about ~ I go back to the courtyard tomorrow." Xu Damao's voice came out somewhat reluctantly.

"Mom, I'm fine...Brother Mao, I want you to stay with me and the child..." the young woman said coquettishly.

Lou Xiao'e, who was outside the door, shed silent tears and the snacks in her hand fell to the ground.

Lou Xiao'e didn't know how she got back to the car, she didn't know how she got back to the Lou family, she didn't know how she got back to her boudoir before getting married. She kept asking herself in her heart, "Am I so unbearable? Am I redundant?"

Mother Lou looked at her daughter who came back so soon, she shed tears silently, and returned to her room like a lost soul. She didn't know what was going on, but she was terrified. She followed her and kept comforting Lou Xiao'e, asking what happened.

When Lou Xiao'e saw that it was her mother in front of her, she suddenly burst into tears. Lou's mother didn't know why, so she could only hug Lou Xiao'e, pat her back and comfort her.

Perhaps she was tired of crying, or perhaps she hoped her mother could give her some advice, Lou Xiaoe stopped crying, looked at her mother expectantly with red and swollen eyes, and asked, "Mom, Xu Damao has remarried a wife, and that woman is pregnant with Xu Damao's child, what should I do?"

After all, Lou's mother was someone who had experienced the Japanese occupation and the Republic of China, and the Lou family had experienced a lot after the founding of the People's Republic of China. She sighed and looked at her daughter with pity for a while.

At this moment, Lou Xiao'e's mind was blank. She looked at her mother absentmindedly, hoping that her mother would give her a good solution.

Mother Lou hugged Lou Xiao'e distressedly, sighed, and said helplessly: "Xiao'e, I know you are in pain and uncomfortable now. When your mother sees you being wronged, I am also heartbroken and uncomfortable..."

"The current environment is becoming less and less friendly to national capitalists like the Lou family. Haven't you seen that many people are secretly watching the Lou family now?"

"In the past, even if there were 100 Xu Damao, the Lou family would have asked you for an explanation."

"The Lou family now can only keep a low profile and act in a low profile. It would be best if no one noticed us."

"Mom will give you two suggestions. No matter what decision you make, Mom will support you."

"The first way is to pretend you know nothing and continue living your life with Xu Damao."

"The second option is for you and Xu Damao to get a divorce quietly and try not to cause any trouble."

Mother Lou said this with a look of relief, and looked at her daughter guiltily.

“Wuuuu…I can’t accept this! Wuuuu…” Lou Xiaoe cried and shouted.

"Silly girl, don't be silly, think positively. Although the Lou family has a bad background, with the strength of the Lou family, if you are single, you don't know how many men will stare at you," Lou's mother said with a smile.

"Wuwuwu, wuwuwu..." Lou Xiao'e kept sobbing, while her mother beside her patiently comforted her.

At night, Lou Xiao'e slept in the boudoir of the Lou family with her eyes open, staring at the ceiling, as if the darkness could tell her the answer she wanted. A few words kept appearing in her mind: I want a divorce, I want a divorce...

The tranquility of the night is like a deep lake, drowning out the hustle and bustle of the day.

The master bedroom on the second floor of the Lou family villa was dimly lit. When Lou Bancheng learned that his beloved daughter had suffered such a great injustice, his heart was already in turmoil, but his expression did not change much, and he chatted with Lou Tan.

If Lou Tan had not lived with Lou Bancheng for decades, she would not have been able to notice Lou Bancheng's emotional changes. Lou Tan knew that Lou Bancheng was feeling very upset tonight, so she patiently chatted with him.

In such harsh environments during the Japanese occupation and the Republic of China, the person who could develop a steel rolling mill must not be a simple character, and success would not be accidental.

"Some friends have told me that there will be major action from above, which will have a huge impact on families like ours."

"It is possible that we have been secretly watched. Whatever we do now may be interpreted by many parties."

"Although Xu Damao is a small figure, he is the son of a three-generation hired farm family. If he divorces Xiao'e, it may cause unnecessary speculation."

"And from what I've observed, Xu Damao is not a good person. He is divorced from Xiao'e, so we can't rule out the possibility that he will turn against the Lou family."

"I've already asked my friends to make arrangements. During this transition period, Xiao'e still has to be wronged to stabilize Xu Damao..."

Lou Bancheng patted Lou Tan's shoulder and gave her gentle instructions.

"Old Lou, don't worry. I will take care of Xiao'e tomorrow morning and prevent her from acting on impulse." Lou Tan spoke of her plan in a considerate manner.

"Oh, Xiao'e is wronged. You should comfort her more. Everything will be fine once we leave here." Lou Bancheng looked at his wife and comforted her with an apologetic look.

"No one can do anything about this era. Old Lou, don't think too much, let's go to sleep!" Lou Tan said as she turned off the lights.
