Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

"It's better not to alarm Director Cheng about this matter."

Before He Yuzhu could reply, Yi Zhonghai spoke up to reject it.

Liu Haizhong turned his head away and snorted: "Cheng Hao is very busy at work in the street office, how can he have time to care about your private affairs?"

Speaking of this, Liu Haizhong couldn't help but laugh at Xu Fugui's stupidity.

He asked Cheng Hao for help more than once, but in the end not only did he not get help, but he also suffered disaster.

Xu Fugui was really desperate and even wanted to ask Cheng Hao for help.

"That's right. Director Cheng doesn't work at the steel mill. What's the point of looking for him?"

Yan Bugui also expressed his opposition.

Cheng Hao is not someone who is easy to get along with, so it’s better not to let a wolf into the house.

The three stewards were of the same opinion. He Yuzhu had no worries at all and smiled faintly, "Xu Fugui, the three stewards have spoken. Brother Hao can't help with Xu Damao's matter. You should think of a solution elsewhere."

Having said that, Xu Fugui did not mention his son again, but just kept urging people to drink.

Soon, the guests, who had eaten and drunk their fill, left and the Xu family's house became quiet again.

Xu Damao walked out of the cubicle and said angrily, "Dad, I told you these bastards are useless. Why did you invite them over? They're wasting a table of good food."

Looking at the mess on the table, Xu Damao felt very distressed. He had spent so much money on the banquet, but it was all gone before he could even take a few bites.

Facing his son's complaints, Xu Fugui remained unmoved and just said calmly: "What do you know? I didn't expect them to help. I invited them to dinner to apologize in the hope that they would let you go.

You've lost your job and income. If the three managers target you again, can you still survive in the hospital?"

Xu Fugui seemed to be disappointed with his friend.

If Xu Damao had used the energy he put into teasing young girls and wives to teach his neighbors well, he would never have ended up in this predicament today.

The three stewards may not be able to help much, but they will definitely lend a hand and show their magnanimity.

It would never be like today, where he just left after dinner without any expression.

"But if I can't find a job, I won't be able to survive."

Xu Damao was a little unconvinced.

Losing the job suddenly is a really fatal thing. As long as he can get the projectionist's job back, even if the three managers are dissatisfied, Xu Damao can still thrive in and out of the hospital.

"I'm tired, clean up the dishes and go to bed early."

Xu Fugui did not continue to argue with his son, but secretly thought about how to break the deadlock.

……

After a sleepless night, Xu Fugui took his son to the Lou family at dawn the next day.

The neighbors in the courtyard refused to help, and it was unrealistic to ask Cheng Hao for help, so he could only look for his wife, who worked as a maid in the Lou family, to see if he could ask Lou Zhenhua for help.

When they arrived outside the Lou family courtyard, the father and son happened to see Zhao Xiaohong cleaning the house, so they hurried over to talk to her.

"Lao Xu, Damao, why are you here?"

Zhao Xiaohong was surprised by the sudden arrival of her husband and son.

"No time for small talk. Damao was fired from the steel mill yesterday. Go ask Mr. Lou what happened and see if you can help your son get his job back."

Xu Fugui didn't waste any words and went straight to the point and explained the whole story.

Zhao Xiaohong was more and more surprised, but seeing the serious expressions of her husband and son, she did not dare to neglect them. She nodded immediately and said that she would find a chance to ask as soon as possible.

Let Xu Fugui and the others go back and wait for news.

In the evening, when Lou Zhenhua came back from get off work, Zhao Xiaohong hurried over and said embarrassedly, "Master, my son Damao was working well in the factory, but he was suddenly fired yesterday for some unknown reason.

If he does not do well, I will give him a severe lesson when I get back.

He is still young, can you give him a chance? "

Lou Zhenhua glanced at Zhao Xiaohong and did not answer. Instead, he asked, "You have been working in the Lou family for some time, right?"

"Master, I have been working in the Lou family for ten years."

Thinking about how she had been serving the Lou family diligently for the past ten years, Zhao Xiaohong couldn't help but feel more confident.

The couple has worked for Lou Zhenhua for so many years, he should at least give them some face.

"Hey~"

Lou Zhenhua sighed, his face showing misery, and said: "Ten years, how many decades can a person have in his lifetime? Thank you for your hard work over the years."

"Master, don't say that. It is our blessing to be able to work for the Lou family. People outside can only envy us and cannot even ask for it."

Zhao Xiaohong felt secretly delighted.

Since Lou Zhenhua still remembers her hard work, there should be no problem with Xu Damao's matter.

"Ten years have passed, I have grown older, and the world has changed.

It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I no longer have the final say in the factory.”

Xu Damao was deliberately taken down by Lou Zhenhua, so it is impossible for him to be let go just because of a few words from the maid.

Not to mention Xu Damao, Lou Zhenhua was already thinking about how to fire Zhao Xiaohong.

The Lou family will live a low-key life in the future, so there is no need to keep a group of servants.

Moreover, after Lou Zhenhua's investigation, Xu Damao was indeed not a good person, and his mother was probably not a good person either, so it was appropriate to expel them.

"what?"

Zhao Xiaohong was horrified and stammered, "How could this happen?"

"Things change over time. The Lou family's situation has not been very good in recent years. You should know that.

The time has come for me to give way to others."

Lou Zhenhua waved his hand and signaled Zhao Xiaohong to leave.

There is no need to make the words of important people clear, and the meaning should be left to the people below to figure out for themselves.

Zhao Xiaohong left the room in a daze. Her legs went limp and she had to hold on to the wall to barely stand.

I didn’t expect that even the Lou family has fallen. It seems that Xu Damao’s case is really hopeless.

……

"Mom, what's going on? What did Director Lou say?

When can I go back to work at the steel mill?"

As soon as Zhao Xiaohong returned to the yard, Xu Damao immediately went up to her and asked her questions.

"Hi~"

Zhao Xiaohong looked at her son's expectant eyes, shook her head helplessly, and walked into the house without saying a word.

Even Lou Zhenhua couldn't help, Xu Damao's job was completely hopeless.

Xu Fugui, who was sitting in the house, looked at his wife's frustrated expression and instantly guessed the outcome. He did not ask any more questions, but comforted her softly, "Don't worry, Damao is still young, he just lost his job temporarily, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Our son is so smart and has such great projection skills, I don’t believe he can’t find a job to make a living.

You are tired too, go back to the house and rest first."

Zhao Xiaohong nodded and felt much better.

Xu Damao has not found a job for the time being, but fortunately both he and his wife have jobs, and it is no problem for them to support the whole family with their income.

As soon as Zhao Xiaohong returned to the house, Xu Damao rushed in hurriedly.

Xu Fugui stopped his son and said in a deep voice, "Let your mother rest for a while. Don't worry about work. Just treat it as a few days off and have a good rest."

Xu Damao pursed his lips helplessly, seeming to want to say something but stopped. Finally, he nodded and sat down quietly.
