Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

"Uncle, Shanhe, Xu Damao, this is my son Lou Xiao, the one I gave birth to after arriving in Hong Kong Island."

"Son, this is my third uncle, his last name is Yan, you can call him Grandpa Yan."

"Hello, Grandpa Yan"

"This tall uncle is called Zhao Shanhe, you can call him Uncle Zhao."

"Hello Uncle Zhao"

"And this guy with a horse face and mustache, just call him a bastard."

After Lou Xiao glanced at her mother, she didn't call her a bastard after all. She still said politely, "Hello, uncle."

"Lou Xiao'e, you are still so unreasonable. How can you teach your children like this? Fortunately, your children are not like you and are polite. What are you doing here?"

"Xu Damao, you scolded me as an old hen that didn't lay eggs for several years, and in the end you wrongly accused me of having problems with Sha Zhu. I left too hastily at that time, and I am here to settle accounts with you.

You see, I already have a son, and he's grown up this big, you're not still single, are you? Have you recovered? Do you have a child? Are you envious?"

"What a joke! I would envy you. Do you have a son? My son Xu Sheng is already 17, and my wife Yuan Yuan is much more gentle and virtuous than you. You are nothing like a capitalist who can't even do housework. Whoever marries you will be unlucky."

"Xu Damao, you are not jealous of me and made up a name to deceive me, right?"

"Tsk, what good is there in lying to you? If you don't believe me, just ask Shanhe and Uncle Sanda. If you don't even believe them, you can go to my house and take a look."

"Miss Lou, what Damao said is true. He got married and had a child again. But let's go inside and talk. It's so cold. Don't let the child get cold."

"Shanhe, is it convenient?"

"What's the inconvenience? Besides, not much has changed in the compound. You know those people. Go to my brother's house to warm up first. It's not appropriate for you to go to Xu Damao's house after he just came back."

"Wait a minute, Lou Xiao'e. My wife and son should be on vacation now. I'll bring them over for you to take a good look at."

The things were carried by Zhao Shanhe's guard, and Zhao Shanhe invited Lou Xiao'e to go into Aunt Chen's room.

Aunt Chen was making lunch, and Zhao Shanhai's two sons gathered around her, "Uncle, you're here."

"Aunt Chen, make more food. I'll eat here."

"Got it, Shanhe, this is your friend, right? Come and sit down, come and sit down."

"Aunt Chen, take a good look. I don't believe you don't recognize him."

"Hello, Aunt Zhao. Ma Xiao, please say hello to Grandma Zhao."

"Hello, Grandma Zhao"

"Good boy, are you Miss Lou?"

"Yes, Aunt Zhao."

"You sit down first and chat with Shanhe. I'll cook a few more dishes and the meal will be ready soon."

"An Dong, An Quan, why are you so rude? Say hello to Auntie Lou."

"Hello, Aunt Lou."

"Shanhe, I remember your two younger brothers and two younger sisters. These two children call you uncle. Which one of your brothers is it?"

"Two are from Shanhai. There are three from Shanhu. They should be next door. They came over when we were having dinner. I have four, but they are not here."

"Shanhe, you moved out? What kind of job do you do now? You even have a guard?"

"Well, I need to move out for work. I happened to go to the train station to pick up Xu Damao today, otherwise I wouldn't have met you. As for work, it's the same as before, doing some research.

But I'm really embarrassed to tell you what I do specifically. What about you, Miss Lou? What kind of business are you doing in Hong Kong Island? What are you planning to invest in now that you've returned? Maybe we can work together."

"There's still a factory being built in Hong Kong Island. Didn't my father start his business with this? It's his old business. I haven't decided what to do this time. My father is old and feels it's hard to leave his hometown, so he has to come back to take a look.

Shanhe, aren't you a researcher? What does cooperation mean? Can you provide the technology for us to cooperate? If you have any good research, we can talk about it and I can support you. "

"No, I'm doing research, but my brother and sister are doing business. If there's any place for cooperation, we can work together. I wonder what kind of factory you have in Hong Kong Island?"

"It's still a steel rolling mill, but the mainland has changed so much in the past few years. I didn't expect that the most advanced machines were actually produced in the mainland. My father ordered a few a few years ago, and they are really useful."

"That's perfect, Miss Lou. Our factory in Yangcheng will reopen after the Chinese New Year, and we need steel. If the price is right, we can really cooperate."

"Shanhe, let's talk business. I can lower the price for our old acquaintance, but what are you going to do with this factory?"

"Oh, I'm planning to open a home appliance factory to produce watches, televisions, refrigerators, etc."

"I just arrived in the mainland and I don't know what to do yet. What do you think? Let me invest in it?"

"Ms. Lou, are you optimistic about the home appliance market?"

"Yes, when I came here, there were roads and buildings being built everywhere. I didn't expect the mainland to develop so fast. Once the economy developed, TVs and refrigerators became necessities.

I don't know how much the income is in mainland China, but I know that a TV and refrigerator cost thousands of yuan, and not many people can afford them. I suggest you make watches first. When you get married, you can just make do with three turns and one ring. Waiting for a few years will be the best time to make TVs and refrigerators."

"Ms. Lou, I can't make the decision on this. My brother is the person in charge. But we can just cooperate in business. Why does Miss Lou want to get involved? Aren't you afraid that we will lose money?"

"Shanhe, which room are you in?" Xu Damao called out from outside.

"Aunt Chen, this is my room. Please come in."

Soon Xu Damao, Zhou Yuanyuan and his son Xu Sheng came in.

Zhou Yuanyuan was obviously wearing makeup, and her clothes were the latest model of Huameng Clothing, a putty coat designed by Zhao Shanhe, which was beautiful and elegant.

When Xu Damao returned home, he took Zhou Yuanyuan and Xu Sheng out to let Lou Xiaoe take a good look at them. He was not envious at all.

Zhou Yuanyuan was confused and didn't know why she was being dragged out. Xu Damao then told her what happened at the door and even exaggerated it to make Lou Xiaoe look bad.

As soon as Zhou Yuanyuan heard it, she knew that Xu Damao's words were three-tenths true and seven-tenths false. However, Xu Damao's ex-wife was here, and the woman's competitive spirit was aroused. How could she be defeated by his ex-wife? She put on makeup and wore a new coat.

Ever since Zhang Baixue moved to the backyard, she has had a good relationship with Zhang Baixue. Plus, Xu Damao is also at Huameng Clothing, and the clothes there are all the latest models, so she came late. If it weren't for her makeup and dressing up, Xu Damao would have come earlier.

As soon as Xu Damao entered the room, before anyone else could say anything, he began to speak in his hoarse voice.

"Lou Xiao'e, take a good look at me. I envy you. Look, my wife is younger and prettier than you. And this is my son. How about he looks like me? He's tall and handsome. What are you so proud of?"

"Da Mao, how can you talk like that?" He turned to Lou Xiao'e and said, "You must be Miss Lou, hello. I am Xu Damao's wife Zhou Yuanyuan, and this is my son Xu Sheng. Nice to meet you."

Zhou Yuanyuan behaved in a graceful and elegant manner.
