Xu Damao's Thirty-Six Stratagems in Siheyuan

This small courtyard with two entrances is located in an alley in Dongzhimen. The exterior decoration has been restored to its original state, but the interior is very modern: there are ceramic tiles and wooden floors. The heating equipment in the house has also been modified, and radiators with small boilers have been installed in the east and west wing rooms.

Except for the lack of a large toilet, the bathroom and the washroom are very beautiful, with sequined mosaics that even form paintings.

On May 5, the wedding banquet was held at Sichuan Flavor Restaurant in Fuxingmen. This is the wedding room.

With the courtyard as a dowry and Lou Xiaoe's Chrysler sedan, Xu Nian and Hu Suian's wedding ceremony was complete.

After returning home on the third day, Lou Xiao'e looked at her happy daughter Xu Nian and nagged her, "Pan Pan, you are already a wife now, and you will be a mother soon, so you can't be so petty. If you are harmonious and happy, I will feel relieved."

"Mom, you look like you're only in your thirties, why are you so nagging? I live in Dongzhimen, which is just a little distance from you. Don't worry, Suian is good, my dad and I have higher standards than you. I'm happy. But, well, although we live close, I'm still a little busy. Although I don't need to work hard on the business of the two factories, I still have to take a few days every month to look at the accounts. The postgraduate subjects of the two majors are really tiring. I still have to learn other things. But mom, from now on, I will always be by your side. Whether the eldest brother and the second brother are not in Kyoto, I will definitely live in Kyoto."

On the other side, Xu Damao, Hu Suian and several other men were chatting together, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

A big issue was resolved in just one week.

Xu Damao is not worried about the children's situation at all now. Those who should study are studying, and those who should go to work are going to work.

Since returning from Mount Tai, Xu Damao has been most concerned about cultivation. He has tried to communicate with Gu Meifang about the Five Elements Qi Refining Technique and the Xingyi Bagua Internal Power Method, but perhaps for various reasons they were not able to integrate them successfully. He is preparing to take Gu Meifang to a place with abundant spiritual energy to build a bridge for cultivation.

Now, except for Lou Xiao'e who has not yet practiced martial arts, Fang Xiaoru has already reached the very high level of the Grandmaster level, and Gu Meifang has also practiced internal skills for many years. Although she has not entered the room, she has at least entered the hall. So although Gu Meifang is over 53 years old, she looks very young and graceful, which has a lot to do with her internal skills training.

Xu Damao knew a truth very well. The only ones who would stay with him in the future were Gu Meifang, Fang Xiaoru and Lou Xiaoe. Therefore, he cared about and protected the health of these three women as the top priority. One generation takes care of another generation. Xu Damao had no intention of stepping in and helping his children take care of their grandchildren. Although Gu Meifang and Lou Xiaoe wanted to take care of them, that was their business. He did not support them, but of course he did not oppose them too much. Xu Jun and Xu Ning, and perhaps Xu Nian, would soon become mothers. These three children were not short of money.

Of course, in the future, Handan, Shuying, Jianjian, Jiajia, Tiaotiao, and Boxu will all be second-generation rich, or even first-generation rich. As a father, he has nothing to worry about. As long as he leads them all on the right path, the others can do whatever they want. For example, Jianjian, although she is in middle school, she is particularly interested in photography. So let her go and take pictures.

Having enjoyed the sweetness of traveling, Fang Xiaoru no longer worries about the affairs of the academy. Apart from teaching his own courses, he spends the rest of his time thinking about traveling and practicing. Reiki is addictive.

Look, Sunday came to Yandaixie Street to look for Xu Damao again. She actually went to Dongsishitiao first. Because the relationship between her and Gu Meifang was higher than that between Lou Xiaoe. After all, there was nothing taboo between the three of them, Xu Damao and her. In Fang Xiaoru's heart, Lou Xiaoe was actually the original wife, so she still lacked a little warm intimacy in her heart.

However, for the purpose of cultivation and traveling, he and she still went to Yandaixie Street.

"Xiao'e, Damao. Why don't you take your children out for a walk on this weekend? You can go to Beihai Park or Temple of Heaven Park."

"Lady Xia, you really know how to pick a day to come and see me. I was discussing this with Xiao'e. Just yesterday, Brother Huan said that this summer, he and Xiao'e's eldest sister are going to Hamburg to visit their daughter in Germany, and asked if we would like to travel to Europe. Isn't it your summer vacation? You should have time, right?"

"Da Mao, Xiao'e, you guys are going? Then I will definitely sign up. I have wanted to visit the Aegean Sea for a long time, but I don't know if I can get a permit to enter Greece. But if we want to go to Germany, let's go to Germany. If we have time, we can go to Austria and Hungary. There will be no problem there. Oh, it's really romantic as I imagined. Let's go, let's go, I will definitely go."

If there was something to play, Fang Xiaoru would definitely join in. She didn't have that many debts to her children. Now her daughter was in Los Angeles, and her son, forget about her son. They were not in each other's hearts. If she thought too much, she would be wronged.

This trip was really worthwhile. I had a big meal at Yandaixie Street. However, when I chatted privately with Lou Xiao'e in the afternoon, Lou Xiao'e's question actually shocked the chivalrous woman Fang Xiaoru. It was not right to answer, and it was not right not to answer.

"Sister Ru, I heard that you and Damao practiced together in Taishan last time, in the great outdoors?"

Fang Xiaoru didn't know how to answer...

"Sister Ru, if there is, then there is. I just asked. Damao mentioned this a few days ago and insisted that I practice. You know, Damao asked me to practice the eight fixed methods of Baguaquan before, but I was not flying around, so I gave up halfway. He said that he and you have found a new way of practice recently, and asked me to keep working hard. So I wanted to ask you."

"Sister, Damao is right. He has indeed found a new way. Damao is also right. He just hopes that we can spend more time with him. His starting point is for our own good. Do you have any questions about your cultivation? I have never practiced the Eight Fixed Methods. Sister Fang has been practicing for a long time. You can discuss it with her. I practice the Natural Gate Internal Kung Fu. I gained a lot from the last trip to Mount Tai."

"Sister Ru, there is one more thing. Damao seems to have a strong need right now. I heard from Sister Fang last time that you and she have served Damao together?"

Fang Xiaoru felt a little upset: Sister Fang is talking nonsense.

"Sister Xiao'e, that was an accident. I drank too much."

"Sister Ru, I don't mean what you think. What I mean is that if it's possible, I can do it too." Lou Xiao'e's fair face suddenly turned red.

"It's mainly because I can't handle him on my own. You know what I mean?"

Fang Xiaoru roughly guessed what Lou Xiao'e meant: she wanted Xu Damao to accompany her more often, but she also wanted to relieve the part of the burden that she could not bear.

"Xiao'e, to be honest, you've opened your heart to me today, and I, Fang Xiaoru, know what's good for me. If there's a chance in the future, let's try it together. I'm thick-skinned anyway, and I'm not afraid of you making fun of me. When Damao and I were together, there was really a kind of consensual feeling. We are women, and it's normal to have needs. Besides, although I'm older now, my body is still young. At fifty, I'm still on the crest of the wave. How about trying it today?"

Lou Xiao'e felt embarrassed instead. She smiled shyly and said to Fang Xiaoru, "Sister Ru, you are really open-minded. Some other day, some other day..."

"Hahaha, look how scared you are."
