Siheyuan: Returning from studying abroad, with extraordinary understanding

The old lady smelled the aroma of the meat and kept swallowing her saliva.

The smell of meat aroused her appetite. If she couldn't eat meat today, she would probably go crazy.

But in order to maintain her identity as an ancestor, she still forced herself not to go to the Lin family to ask for meat. If she went to the Lin family in person to ask for meat, it would be no different from a beggar begging at their door.

She would never do such a thing, she still has to save her face.

The old lady looked at the door, but she didn't see Wang Caixia bringing the meat, and she began to feel annoyed.

"None of the Lin family members are filial sons. They are all ungrateful wolves!"

"Isn't it just that they didn't feed their little girl for a day? You're fussing over such a small matter. Little girls are money-losing goods. Just give her something to eat so she doesn't starve to death."

"Why do you care for her so much? She will get married sooner or later."

"They have no manners at all. They didn't even bring a bit of the meat they bought to honor me, their ancestor! Why doesn't God send down a thunderbolt to kill such unfilial people?"

The old lady couldn't wait for the meat and started cursing under her breath.

At this time, every household was either eating or cooking, and no one came to see her.

If we were not under pressure from public opinion, if we did not send her food, she would say that we were ill-mannered and that our reputation would be ruined, and no one would want to visit her.

The other residents had already hated the old lady and cursed her to die quickly.

However, she is in good health now and it won't be so easy for her to die.

After waiting for a while and seeing no one coming, she could no longer sit still, so she walked to the door with her crutches and looked outside eagerly.

There were people coming in and out of the Moon Gate, but she didn't see the person she wanted to see, which made her a little disappointed.

At this time, Xu Damao came out of the house with a bowl and noticed the old lady at the first time.

"Old lady, have you eaten yet? You are standing guard at the door. Is there no one to bring you food yet?"

After saying that, he deliberately raised the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, and then started eating with big mouthfuls.

Xu Damao's family and Yi Zhonghai's family don't get along. Yi Zhonghai is good to the old lady, but the old lady is ruining the reputation of the Xu family, so Xu Damao's family doesn't have a good relationship with the old lady either.

Xu Damao came out and wanted to chat with other people, but when he saw the old lady, he couldn't help but talk bad.

"Xu Damao, you are such an uneducated brat. You didn't even bring me any food when you saw me, an old lady, was hungry. You even deliberately pissed me off. You really have no manners at all."

"How did your family educate you to have no respect for elders and no filial piety?"

The old lady was so angry at Xu Damao that she started to curse him.

You clearly knew that I had no food to eat, but you still held the bowl to show off in front of me and deliberately ate big mouthfuls of food in front of me. Aren’t you trying to make me angry on purpose?

How can I calm down if I don't scold you, a bad guy like you?

"No, old lady, how can I be unfilial? My parents didn't scold me for being unfilial, so how can my eating affect you?"

"If anyone is unfilial, it should be your grandson Shazhu. He hasn't brought you any food even at this time!"

"You are not my grandma, why should I bring you food?"

Xu Damao was scolded by the old lady and became angry, so he scolded back.

Although he was deliberately trying to anger the old lady just now, he would never admit it.

With his parents around, Xu Damao is not afraid of anything.

The old lady was so angry. She didn't expect Xu Damao to curse back at her. This time she was really pissed off.

"Xu Damao, you rascal, it seems your parents didn't educate you well. If you don't know the etiquette of respect and inferiority, I will beat you to death!"

As he said that, he raised his crutch and walked towards Xu Damao, wanting to hit him.

Seeing this, Xu Damao immediately turned around and ran away. The old lady hit him, but he didn't dare to fight back. If anything happened to her, he couldn't afford the consequences.

After rushing into the door, Xu Damao did not forget to bolt it.

"Xu Damao, if you have the guts, don't hide." Seeing Xu Damao running away, the old lady glanced at the gate of the Xu family with contempt.

She didn't really want to hit Xu Damao just now. After all, she didn't have the physical strength to do so. But the grudge had already been formed, and she would retaliate.

Inside the Xu family.

When Xu Fugui saw Xu Damao coming back, he immediately got angry and scolded:

"Da Mao, what do you want to do? Didn't I tell you not to mess with the old lady? Why don't you listen?"

"She doesn't have many years left to live. If you mess with her, what else will you get in return except a bad reputation? She will just lie on the ground and ask you to pay her money. No matter if you are right or wrong, you have to pay her money!"

"Why can't you be more sensible? Even if our Xu family has some money, it's not enough for you to pay! If you dare to mess with her again, I'll break your legs!"

"Okay, head of the family, stop scolding. Damao knows he is wrong." Mother Xu felt sorry for her son and tried to persuade him. If she hadn't persuaded him, Xu Damao would probably have been scolded for more than half an hour.

"Da Mao, quickly admit your mistake to your father and promise not to provoke the old lady again."

"Dad, I know I was wrong. Next time I see the old lady, I will just take a detour and never provoke her again! Please forgive me this time!"

Xu Damao lowered his head, not daring to look at his father, and sincerely admitted his mistake.

His sister Xu Zhaodi looked at Xu Damao like this, with the corners of her mouth raised. She wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. She secretly glanced at Xu Fugui, then lowered her head to eat.

When Xu Fugui heard Xu Damao's sincere tone of admitting his mistake, his anger subsided a lot.

"Da Mao, I'm doing this for your own good. You have to know that you can't mess with the elderly and children. If you mess with an elderly person, he (she) will have to pay compensation the next time you come. If you bully children, their parents will come to your house to cause trouble. You have to be careful next time."

"Let's just let it go this time. Also, don't mess with Sha Zhu. You are a scholar, unlike him. He is just a cook. You will definitely be better than him in the future."

"Okay, Dad, I understand!" He said this, but Xu Damao didn't care in his heart.

He will never give up his grudge against Sha Zhu.

How could he give up after being bullied by Sha Zhu so many times?

"By the way, I heard that the Lin family's overseas student is back. Damao, you have to get along well with him."

Xu Fugui is Lou Bancheng's driver. He has much more knowledge and experience than ordinary people. He knows something about the scarcity of international students from Lou Bancheng.

"Dad! Why? He is just studying abroad. You are Boss Lou's driver. You have Boss Lou as your backer. His family has no money and no power. Why do you want to have a good relationship with him?"

Xu Damao was very puzzled. It was just that she was better at studying. There was no need for him to curry favor with her.

Now that we are all liberated, I learned from my teacher that what matters is equality for all. So what's wrong with international students? Aren't they the same as him?

"Do you think someone who can go abroad is simple? Even Mr. Lou wants to send his son abroad. He has so many businesses, but he hasn't hired a single international student. Do you think international students are important?"
