Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

After Xu Damao helped Yu Haitang scold Liu Haizhong a few words, he took Yu Haitang and sat down.

There were a lot of delicious dishes on the table, and there was also a bottle of red wine.

Apart from anything else, Xu Damao is really good at pursuing women.

First of all, he is not a stingy person.

Be generous when you should be generous.

This table of food and wine would cost at least seven or eight dollars.

That bottle of red wine is only worth three dollars.

Yu Haitang felt very happy when she saw the bottle of wine.

Although I guessed what Xu Damao was thinking, I didn't have any thoughts about him.

But she was naturally very proud to be valued so much by a man.

Xu Damao said with a smile while pouring the wine:

"Don't let this ignorant fellow disturb our fun. Let's have a drink first."

Yu Haitang looked at Xu Damao with a half-smile and said:

"Xu Damao, let me remind you that I can drink a lot."

"How could I not know this? Not to mention me, everyone in our factory knows this. Even the leaders are no match for you."

Yu Haitang felt even happier after hearing Xu Damao's flattering words.

After the two clinked glasses, Yu Haitang glanced at Xu Damao's family and said:

"Hey, I find that your family is the best in this courtyard except for Wang Jianjun."

Xu Damao was dissatisfied and said:

"Not only in our hospital, but also in our factory, our conditions are second to none."

Xu Damao came from a well-off family and he married Chen Li.

Chen Li's parents asked him to decorate the house more beautifully.

So I bought brand new furniture for my home.

In addition, he lived in the entire west wing by himself, so how could three rooms not be spacious?

"Then you can brag. I went to Wang Jianjun's house yesterday. His house is decorated better than yours. It's just that his house is smaller than yours, but Wang Jianjun's house has a separate bathroom and a flush toilet. Just based on this point, Wang Jianjun's house is better than yours."

Living in this courtyard with or without a toilet is two completely different feelings.

Yu Haitang has a say on this point.

When Xu Damao heard Yu Haitang praising Wang Jianjun, he was the first to disagree.

He directly applied eye drops to Yu Haitang and said:

"That's because his house was renovated late. If my family wanted, it wouldn't be difficult to build a toilet. And I didn't know him, Wang Jianjun. He has no money at all. The decoration of his house was paid for by his capitalist wife. Now his wife is missing, where can he get the money? He still eats cornmeal steamed bread every day. If you marry him, you will suffer in the future."

Yu Hai didn't quite believe what Xu Damao said.

Because Wang Jianjun doesn't look like he is short of money.

She glanced at Xu Damao and said with a half-smile:

"You asked me to come here, and you said that about Wang Jianjun. You must have ulterior motives."

Xu Damao didn't care about being exposed. He adjusted his mindset and looked at Yu Haitang seriously and said:

"Nothing can be hidden from your pair of smart and beautiful eyes. Haitang, do you know your position in my heart? She is the goddess on Mount Everest.

When I heard that you and Yang Weimin had broken up, my first thought was, should I continue to hesitate and stand still? I don't want to!

I will bravely pursue you! Pursue the most beautiful girl in our factory."

Xu Damao's affectionate confession did not move Yu Haitang.

She said casually:

"But you've been married. And I'm a first-time married woman."

Xu Damao retorted:

"Wang Jianjun was also married."

"That's different. Wang Jianjun is handsome!"

Xu Damao just felt that these words were very heartbreaking.

In terms of appearance, Wang Jianjun is indeed far better than him.

He pointed to his home unwillingly and said:

"Then let's talk about this house. I have conditions that others don't have."

"But Wang Jianjun's isn't bad either. Besides, you only have these few rooms. Although being a projectionist is a lucrative job, the income is limited."

Hearing Yu Haitang talking about Wang Jianjun every other sentence, Xu Damao felt a little unhappy.

He felt that he needed to show off his wealth in front of Yu Haitang.

"Haitang, in fact, other people don't know how much wealth I have. With the money in my family, it's no problem to buy two or three houses like mine. I'm just a low-key person and don't like to show off my wealth."

I don’t believe it when I see Haitang.

Xu Damao became ruthless and stood up and went into the house, with a small box in his hand when he came out.

Xu Damao slapped the box on the table and said:

"Come on, open it and take a look."

Yu Haitang looked at Xu Damao suspiciously and said:

"What?"

Xu Damao didn't say anything either, but signaled Yu Haitang with his eyes to open the box.

Yu Haitang casually opened the box and took a look, then she was completely shocked.

There were only seven or eight gold bars in the box.

The glittering gold bars made Yu Haitang almost unable to open her eyes.

She had only seen gold rings and gold bars in her life, and this was the first time she had seen such things.

"Where did you get this gold bar?"

Xu Damao naturally wouldn't say that he took it when he confiscated the house. He said proudly:

"You know Lou Bancheng, right?"

"Yes, he was a former major shareholder and capitalist of our steel mill. I heard people in the factory say that Lou Bancheng fled abroad a few months ago. What does your gold bar have to do with Lou Bancheng?"

"You probably don't know this, but my dad used to show movies for Lou Bancheng, and my mom also worked for the Lou family. If the Lou family leaked even a little bit, it would be enough for my family to live on for several lifetimes.

I'm telling you, Haitang, I'm your father's only son. If you marry me, you can enjoy the good life in the future."

To be honest, Yu Haitang was a little moved.

These gold bars are estimated to be worth tens of thousands of dollars.

There are only a few people with a monthly income of ten thousand yuan these days.

Moreover, Xu Damao is the deputy leader of the steel rolling mill's patrol team.

He has power, influence and money, but he's not good-looking.

If this man had Wang Jianjun's looks, or even one-tenth of his looks, she would accept him.

Seeing Haitang's inner struggle, Xu Damao felt secretly proud.

No matter how good-looking you, Wang Jianjun, are, you have no money or power, so what can you compare with me?

"Haitang, I am sincere to you. Look, I have taken out all the gold bars from the bottom of my chest to show you. Now you should believe my feelings for you."

Yu Haitang was very upset at the moment. She turned her head away and said without looking into Xu Damao's eyes:

"Xu Damao, I admit that you are indeed very good. I also know your feelings for me, but I don't have that intention for you for the time being. Please let me calm down and think about it first."

Xu Damao knew that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

He was not in a hurry, as he had already shown his superiority in front of Yu Haitang.

He believed that with his own strength, Yu Haitang would definitely know what to choose.
