Walking with the Villain, Lou Xiao'e's Alternative Love

Monday, the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month

Xu Damao made breakfast. Don’t ask why. The reason is that his wife couldn’t get up...

Lou Xiao'e had just finished getting dressed when Zhuang Junwei came over to eat.

Xu Damao was busy setting the table.

With a flattering look on his face, he prepared water for his wife to wash her face and squeezed toothpaste for her.

The family of three ate with different expressions.

Xu Damao had a big smile on his face and never got tired of peeling eggs and picking up vegetables for his wife.

Zhuang Junwei was biting the steamed bun with a frown on his face. He looked as if he thought the steamed bun was his master who sent him back to bed last night.

As a result, he missed the two most crucial episodes of the TV series.

Lou Xiao'e was tired and sleepy, and she kept yawning during the meal.

There's no choice but to go to work today.

The three of them are all going to the steel mill today.

Lou Xiao'e was just going to work as usual, and Xu Damao had just returned from a business trip to report for duty.

During the days before and after the New Year, Zhuang Junwei no longer had to go to the countryside, and he stayed in the factory checking and repairing projection equipment.

As soon as Lou Xiao'e arrived at the office, Zhu Zirui diligently took the bag from her hand and hung it up.

"Sister E, my grandmother asked me to thank you on her behalf."

"Ruizi, go back and tell grandma that I treat you like my own brother. We can't be as polite to outsiders as we are to others."

"I've told my grandmother about this, but she said that the things you gave me, Sister E, are all rare and hard to find on the market, and she insisted that I thank you, saying that this is a courtesy."

"That's how it is said, well-educated and well-mannered people are different. Okay, I appreciate grandma's kindness, please sit down and stop standing there."

Zhu Zirui sat down quickly and started talking about the gossip he had obtained in exchange for a few handfuls of melon seeds.

The two were gossiping enthusiastically when Xu Damao pushed the door open and said excitedly, "Wife, come with me quickly. Ruizi, you can keep an eye on the work for your sister first."

"Brother-in-law, you must have worked hard on your business trip!" Zhu Zirui looked up and smiled. What's the urgent matter?

Lou Xiao'e stood up and asked, "Why is this so urgent?"

"Oh! Wife, don't ask me yet. This is urgent. I have already asked Section Chief Wei for leave for you."

"Sister E, please go with your brother-in-law quickly. If you have anything to say, you two can talk on the way. Look how anxious my brother-in-law is." Zhu Zirui urged.

Seeing this, Lou Xiao'e didn't care about anything else. She hurriedly grabbed the keys and the bag on the table, and said a few words to Zhu Zirui. Then she followed Xu Damao and hurriedly left the office, leaving the room full of doubts and speculations.

After the two of them left the steel mill gate, Xu Damao said, "Wife, we have taken over our yard."

"Next door?" Lou Xiao'e asked.

"Yes! It's the yard next door that I've been thinking about day and night."

"Xu Damao, isn't it me that you think about day and night? Why did I fall out of favor so quickly?" Lou Xiao'e teased him deliberately.

"Not out of favor, not out of favor. It's a different kind of relationship." Xu Damao said, and quickly stole a kiss. He added: "As soon as I arrived at the factory, Li Huaide called me to his office. He first apologized to me, then praised me. Then he called his brother-in-law in front of me. The house issue was resolved."

"So this is considered a reward?" Lou Xiao'e asked again.

"It's not a reward. He said the house thing was just a coincidence and the reward will be given after the Chinese New Year. However, this house thing is more timely and precious to me than any material reward."

Xu Damao hugged Lou Xiaoe into his arms and said, "We finally have our own home!"

"Xu Damao, are you crazy? Aren't you afraid of being seen?" Lou Xiao'e broke free from Xu Damao's hand and asked, "Have you got the deed now?"

"No, no... Wife, is there not enough money in our family?"

"What do you think?" Lou Xiao'e teased him.

"How many wives do we need?" Xu Damao asked.

"If it's yours, it would probably be more than two thousand." Lou Xiao'e replied.

"There's still so much to go. Let me think about it..." After saying that, Xu Damao squatted on the ground with his hands on his head.

"Did you forget your gold bars?" asked Lou Xiao'e.

"But didn't we agree that all of it would be given to you?"

"Have you forgotten that you have a wife?"

"Wife, I don't want to..."

"Don't want to be a freeloader?"

"No, I don't want to..."

"You don't want me to see your embarrassing side?"

Xu Damao was stunned by Lou Xiao'e's question, and he rubbed his head vigorously. "No, wife, I just... I just feel that as your man, I should protect you from the wind and rain, instead of always relying on you. I know you are good to me and are willing to support me, but I can't get over that hurdle in my heart, and I feel that I am incompetent."

Seeing this, Lou Xiao'e squatted down and gently took Xu Damao's hand, her eyes full of understanding and encouragement: "Da Mao, we are husband and wife, and we should share the joys and sorrows. You have your pride and responsibility, and I respect that. But don't forget that two people facing difficulties together are always better than one person. Moreover, I believe in your ability. One day, you will create more wealth with your own hands and make our lives better."

Xu Damao raised his head and met Lou Xiao'e's determined gaze, and a warm current surged in his heart. "Thank you, wife. You are right, we are one, no one is different from you. Then... I will go to my parents to borrow some money this time, but I promise that I will work harder in the future to make our lives better and better, and I will not let you worry about these things anymore."

Lou Xiao'e said with a joking smile: "You are so serious, as if I am forcing you. I know you are a man of integrity and don't want to ask for help easily, but family members don't have to worry about so much. My parents love us, and they have already given me the money to buy a house in advance. I was just teasing you on purpose."

Xu Damao reached out and slapped Lou Xiaoe on the butt, "Wife, you are just wasting time. Look how anxious I am. I am sweating in my trouser pockets."

In this era, buying a house only requires three procedures: "Communication and negotiation": the buyer and seller communicate and negotiate on the structure, area, price, etc. of the house and reach a consensus.

"Writing a sales contract": Both parties will write down the negotiated contents into a house sales contract, specifying the relevant information, price, delivery method, etc. of the house in detail, and then sign and seal it respectively.

"Notarization and delivery": Both parties ask a notary to sign and seal the contract, and invite a respected person to preside over the transaction on the spot to show the formality and legality of the transaction. After that, the seller delivers the house to the buyer, and the house transaction is completed. (Internet information)

The outstanding thing about Li Huaide is that, except for the purchase price of the house, he has arranged everything else.

Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao obtained the house deeds from the street office easily and happily.

No. 96, Nanluoguxiang, with a total area of ​​488 square meters.

On the yellowed kraft paper, the owner’s signature was written in traditional Chinese characters: “Lou Xiao’e.”
