Siheyuan: Father Yi Zhonghai and Sister-in-law Lou Xiaoe

In the evening, after Yi Bufan picked up Xu Xiaoran, Yi Zhonghai just came out of the boiler next door.

"Dad, why don't you and Mom pack up and just live next door. It'll be warmer and you don't have to run back and forth."

Yi Bufan felt that this would be more convenient.

"Let's talk about it when it's a little colder."

"I don't have much to do every day anyway."

"By the way, I've already said that the coal will be delivered tomorrow by a craftsman, so you don't have to rush to buy it."

Yi Zhonghai mainly didn’t want to disturb the lives of Yi Bufan and his wife.

He heard from others that it is easy for his son to have conflicts with his parents after he gets married.

If they had lived together since childhood, it wouldn't be a big deal.

However, Yi Bufan has only known him as his father for a few months, so it’s better not to take the risk.

That's fine now.

"Well, I really plan to go and see how much coal I can buy tomorrow."

"I even exchanged some coal tickets with people from the factory."

As Yi Bufan spoke, he took out some coal tickets from his pocket, which were actually exchanged in the Emotion Mall.

"I'll take care of this from now on. Don't try to exchange it with anyone blindly, or you might get caught."

Yi Zhonghai took the tickets and gave instructions.

"It's okay, I'll be careful."

Yi Bufan nodded.

"By the way, does Xu Damao really want to divorce Lou Xiao'e?"

Yi Zhonghai glanced at Xu Xiaoran who was standing at the door.

"is it?"

Yi Bufan asked doubtfully and glanced at Xu Xiaoran.

"Old Liu told me that Lou Xiao'e will go through the divorce procedures with Xu Damao tomorrow morning."

"Do not know is not true."

Yi Zhonghai said this because Xu Xiaoran is his daughter-in-law.

"It seems that your father failed to convince your brother, but was instigated by your brother to rebel."

Yi Bufan turned and looked at Xu Xiaoran.

"Never mind them!"

Xu Xiaoran pouted and went back to the house.

"I'll bring you some buns later."

Yi Zhonghai also turned and left.

"Bufan, how about you take me home?"

"I want to persuade my parents."

Xu Xiaoran said after a moment of silence.

"If we want to go home now, we can only walk back. You are not fit to ride a bike now. It will be bumpy."

"Actually, I think we can't help with this matter."

"Your parents haven't come to see your brother again, which means they have acquiesced."

“Maybe it’s useless for us to say anything.”

"But if you're really worried, let's go back and look for your parents now."

Yi Bufan thought that it was a good idea to handle the matter in this way.

At least he's good to his own child.

Moreover, the Lou family just happened to leave Sijiu City early.

"I want to know why my parents support my brother's divorce."

Xu Xiaoran is still a little persistent.

"In fact, it's already very clear."

"Your father supports your brother's promotion and salary increase to become a leader, and he also agrees with your brother's statement that the Lou family will become an obstacle to him."

“After all, Lou Bancheng’s identity is not very popular right now.”

"As for why it's now, I think it's because your brother saw the opportunity."

"But, essentially, as long as your brother has this idea, divorce is a matter of time."

"So, if we go to your parents and it doesn't solve the problem, you know your brother is determined this time."

Yi Bufan took Xu Xiaoran in. Perhaps divorcing her now would just prevent Xu Damao from reporting the Lou family.

One less opportunity to damage your character.

"But, my sister-in-law is pregnant..."

As a pregnant woman herself, Xu Xiaoran feels the same way.

"Maybe your brother feels that he doesn't want this child. After all, half of his blood belongs to the Lou family."

"It will cause him trouble just the same."

Yi Bufan really admired Xu Damao's decision.

Not many people can make such a decisive decision to give up.

"But......."

Xu Xiaoran wanted to say something when Yi Bufan kissed her.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Your dad has already said that we don't need to get involved..."

The next day.

As if it was an appointment, many people did not go to work.

Xu Damao put on his Zhongshan suit and tucked a leather bag under his arm.

After a night of egg-rolling exercise, the swelling on my face was mostly gone.

He felt that today was a very important turning point for him.

After Xu Damao went out of the backyard, Liu Haizhong also waited for the deaf old lady and helped her to follow.

"Did you tell Yi Zhonghai yesterday that Zhuzi was going to get married?"

The deaf old lady had a smile on her face.

I'm in a good mood today.

"I did. I told him yesterday when he came back from get off work."

Liu Haizhong passed by his house and took the bag from the second aunt.

"Then what did he say?"

The deaf old lady looked at Liu Haizhong with some anticipation.

"I didn't say anything, I just said it's time to get married."

"Then I went back to the house."

Liu Haizhong thought about it and didn't say another word.

"Is this gone?"

"You didn't ask who you're going to marry? When will you marry?"

The deaf old lady was a little dumbfounded. It was quite different from what she had imagined.

"did not ask!"

"No one said anything until I met him this morning when I went out."

Liu Haizhong also felt that Yi Zhonghai was quite cold, even outsiders on both sides would be curious.

"Maybe he didn't understand. I'll talk to him again when I come back today, and by the way, let's talk about how to arrange Sha Zhu's wedding."

"Anyway, once Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao finish the formalities, it will be half done."

The deaf old lady still refused to believe that Yi Zhonghai would give up Sha Zhu.

I feel like Yi Bufan’s relationship was only two or three months, which can’t be compared to Sha Zhu’s relationship of more than ten years.

"it is good!"

Liu Haizhong nodded.

Xu Xiaoran and Yi Bufan also went to the street office very early, and the people inside even brought chairs for them.

Who can blame them for having a good relationship with their director? They are their director's nephew and niece-in-law.

"Why are you two here?"

When Lou Xiao'e got out of Tan Yali's car, she saw Yi Bufan and Xu Xiaoran from afar.

Tan Yali just greeted Yi Bufan and did not get out of the car.

This is also Lou Xiao'e's request.

“Sister-in-law, can you… forget it, I won’t say anything, you are my sister from now on.”

Xu Xiaoran originally wanted to persuade her, but when she saw Xu Damao coming, it looked like he didn't have the slightest intention of redeeming the relationship.

He was arrogant, and his eyes were full of indifference, without a trace of warmth.

"Ok!"

Lou Xiaoe came over and hugged Xu Xiaoran.

Xu Xiaoran walked towards Xu Damao, also wanting to make a final challenge.

Lou Xiao'e looked at Yi Bufan and said, "I have something to tell you later."
