Xu Damao's Thirty-Six Stratagems in Siheyuan

The powerful Xu Damao has slept with Lou Xiaoe. What else can I do? Invest.

At the end of April, Xu Jun brought Yuan Ya to visit, and they went to Yandaixie Street.

This time, Yuan Ya finally got a comprehensive understanding of Xu Jun's family background from Lou Xiao'e, who might be her future mother-in-law.

Yuan Ya was moved by Lou Xiao'e's earnest advice, sincerity, generosity, and temperament. She had been waiting for this kind of relationship. Now the prince charming came on a white horse, and the prince's family also agreed.

The parents of both parties made an appointment to meet at Beijing Flavor Private Kitchen. Firstly, it allowed He Yuzhu and Yu Li to meet Lou Xiaoe, and secondly, the food here was really delicious.

At Xu Damao's invitation, Yuan Ya's parents, her brother and sister-in-law, her younger brother and his girlfriend all came. Together with Xu Damao, Lou Xiao'e, and Xu Jun, there were exactly ten people, filling the entire table.

"Master Yuan, we may have met before. The fact that Xu Jun went to the same nursery as Yuan Ya proves that you lived in the area around the Red Star Factory. It's just that Yan may not have been familiar with it at the time."

"Xu Damao, you don't know me, but how can I not know you? I used to be an electrician at the Red Star Factory, mainly in the fourth workshop. It's far from your office, so I don't go there very often. You may not have seen me, but I know you. I caught spies, was commended, and was promoted to cadre. Your wife knows you even better. I haven't seen her in person, but I know her name. As the daughter of Lou Bancheng, how can she not know her? My husband used to be a packer at the street light bulb factory. Later, the light bulb branch moved away, and I was transferred with it, so now I live in Chaoyang."

"Ah? You're from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, too? Oh, what a miss. Haha, it turns out we're co-workers. I really have to have a few more drinks today."

……

After a banquet, Xu Jun and Yuan Ya's marriage was basically settled. The woman's request was not too high. She originally asked for a gift of 2000 yuan, but Lou Xiao'e gave her 8000 yuan directly, and agreed to get married in the fall. The specific date will be determined later.

Xu Jun accompanied Yuan Ya to see off the Yuan family, and Xu Damao accompanied Lou Xiao'e in the restaurant to discuss with He Yuzhu about opening a restaurant in Fuxingmen. It went perfectly according to Xu Damao's plan. This private kitchen was also kept. They tried to complete the decoration before the National Day and open for business on the National Day.

A few days later, Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao opened an account at the Bank of China, and one million yuan was transferred from Hong Kong to the account.

"Ezi, didn't you say 500,000? You only got 1 million. You don't need that much."

"If you have money, just spend it. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Your son needs to decorate his house when he gets married. They are young people, so you should take the trouble to renovate the small western-style building and use it as their wedding house. The one in Dongzhimen will be given to Xinxin after they move into the courtyard, the one in Xizhimen will be given to Panpan, and the one in Yandaixie Street will be kept by me so that my mother can live there when she comes. I will not go to Dongsi to get involved with your widow Gu, so as to save you trouble. Is this okay?"

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say. Don't worry, I'll take care of my son's wedding. I promise it will be a beautiful one."

"You are such a bastard. I, Lou Xiao'e, really lost to you." Lou Xiao'e tapped Xu Damao's forehead with her finger and said "angry words" in a coquettish way.

"Stay with me tonight and don't go back to Dongsi."

"Okay, I'll accompany you. But I have to go home and tell you, otherwise, how can I do it?"

"Okay, you take me to Yandaixie Street first, then go back, and then come back."

"As ordered."

It wasn't that Lou Xiao'e was being hypocritical. She was actually leaving soon. She had been in Kyoto for a long time. She had three children in Hong Kong. As a daughter, Lou Xiao'e was worried about leaving Tan Yali alone there. Besides, she had already done everything she needed to do on this trip to Kyoto. She had to come back in the fall.

Two days later, Xu Damao saw Lou Xiao'e off from the airport and returned to his home in Dongsi.

"Xiao'e is back in Hong Kong?"

"Well, Meifang, you've been exhausted these past few days, taking care of the children alone at home."

"That's nothing. Hanhan and Dandan are older now, and Jianjian and Jiajia are older too. I only take care of the younger one, and I let Tiaotiao go to kindergarten during the day. I just pick them up on time. But it's true that the children really miss you, so you have to spend some time talking to the children today."

"Okay, no problem. I'll put them to sleep one by one today, and then I'll put you to sleep last. How about that?"

"Boss, you often ask for leave, won't your company blame you?"

"I didn't ask for leave. I still report to work every day. The Youth League Committee doesn't have much to do right now, and no one is in charge of us. Besides, the new factory director is in full swing and is in charge of production. This year, the factory has built two new production lines, and he is an expert. A department like ours is dispensable, but the organization insists on it. I know what's going on, don't worry."

"Oh, yes, the night before yesterday, that guy, Wu Lingjuan's son, what was his name? I didn't ask, but he sent you an invitation. He's getting married on May 13th and wants you to attend the wedding. The invitation is on the table in the room."

"Oh, it's true. I'm really old enough. Ha, there are so many people getting married this year."

Gu Meifang was cooking at home while Xu Damao went to the kindergarten to pick up Xu Zhiyue after school. The other four children really didn't need to be picked up, they could come back by themselves, although they were delayed on the way and played for a while, but Gu Meifang didn't need to worry about them. The four siblings still had some skills in their hands, as long as they could bully others, no one dared to bully the four of them, not even the senior students. This was really the most reassuring thing for Gu Meifang and Xu Damao. By the way, they took a big detour to Bian Yi Fang and bought two roast ducks to take home for a snack.

Having not been home for several days, the children, especially the little girl Xu Zhiyue, still miss Xu Damao very much.

If you have roast duck to eat, you won’t pout and complain that your father doesn’t come home.

Especially the Xu Zhidi brothers, they looked at the roast duck and it smelled so good.

"Hey, if dad doesn't come home in the future, it would be nice if he could bring roast duck every time he comes back."

"Eat less, enjoy more, understand? No matter how delicious the food is, if you eat it every day, you will get tired of it one day. Only when you eat it rarely can you feel that it is delicious. Your mother cooks for you every day, don't you think the food at home is much better than that of other people? Although living conditions are better now, we must also have the spirit of hardship and simplicity, be able to endure hardships, and also enjoy happiness. Study hard in school, learn more skills from Teacher Yan and Master Pu, and then you can call it real ability. Do you understand?"

Xu Damao himself was a gangster when he was young, but since his rebirth, he has paid great attention to the upbringing of his children. Whether it was Lou Xiao'e's three children in the past or Gu Meifang's five children now, he has devoted a lot of energy to them. In addition, after practicing the Qi Refining Technique and the Spirit Refining Technique, he has the bearing and majesty to easily intimidate the children.

Being busy is natural, but not chaotic.

Xu Damao remains at ease in his work and life
