Siheyuan: Forced to exchange rooms with Qin Huairu at the beginning

Xu Damao was determined and strong-willed. He found Lou Xiaoe at noon the next day.

Without saying a word, he took Lou Xiao'e to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce.

"divorce?"

The staff looked at Xu Damao and Lou Xiaoe in shock.

From a policy perspective, there is absolutely no problem with divorce, but in reality, there are almost no divorces, which leads to the fact that they only have marriage certificates but no divorce certificates.

"Yes, divorce."

Xu Damao nodded and said.

"Comrades, wait a moment. I'll go tell the leader."

The leader came over after a while and looked at Xu Damao and Lou Xiaoe with embarrassment.

"Excuse me, comrades. Please wait a moment. We don't have a divorce certificate here. We are borrowing one from other departments."

The leader said awkwardly.

"No divorce certificate? What's going on?"

Xu Damao was a little confused. Your department is responsible for this, so how could you not have it?

"I'm really sorry, because no one has ever divorced before, so..."

Xu Damao understood now and felt embarrassed. It was all Lou Xiao'e's fault. Why get a divorce if there was nothing wrong?

In the end, the two divorced. Lou Xiao'e said, "Take care of yourself," and left.

Xu Damao sneered, you should be the one who takes care of yourself.

Back in the courtyard, Qin Jingru came up again.

"Brother Damao, I can really explain it. You may not believe it, but this child is really yours. I have never done that with anyone else."

Qin Jingru's eyes were full of sadness, as if Xu Damao had wronged her.

"Hmm? Technology is very advanced nowadays, it's definitely possible to find out. Do you dare to bet?"

Xu Damao asked. In fact, he also had doubts in his heart. Qin Jingru didn't look like someone who would play tricks. He wondered if this child was really his.

"I dare."

Qin Jingru said firmly that she had no way out now and marrying Xu Damao had become her only option.

"Okay, I'll tell you some good news too. Look what this is."

Xu Damao handed Qin Jingru something similar to a certificate, which proved that he was single now.

"Um, Brother Damao, you know I can't read."

Qin Jingru blushed and said awkwardly.

"This is the divorce certificate. I have divorced Lou Xiao'e."

Xu Damao patted his chest and said with a proud look on his face.

"Great, then Brother Damao, can you marry me?"

Qin Jingru looked at Xu Damao expectantly.

In her opinion, Xu Damao had her in his heart, otherwise why would he divorce Lou Xiao'e.

"Don't worry, let me get that stupid guy in first."

Xu Damao didn't have the mind to do that at the moment. What he wanted to do most now was to send Sha Zhu in first.

After being locked up for ten or eight years, no one knows what he looks like when he comes out.

Moreover, it is very difficult for a prisoner to get a job. Xu Damao could already foresee Sha Zhu's misery.

In other words, Jia Zhang herself does not work and does not need to look for a job. It seems that being in jail for three months has no effect on her at all. You can try to replace her with someone who needs a job.

"My sister said that since we are all from the same courtyard, she asked me to ask you if you can let Sha Zhu go."

Qin Jingru said through gritted teeth.

She didn't really care about this matter at all. The only reason she asked now was because Qin Huairu found her. She was living in Qin Huairu's house now, so there was nothing she could do about it. Otherwise, she would definitely not help.

"Impossible. The hatred between Shazhu and me will never be resolved in this lifetime. I must see him receive the punishment he deserves."

"Who are you with?"

Xu Damao said dissatisfiedly, and said that he wanted him to marry her, but he couldn't even clarify his identity.

"With you, of course I am in the same group with you."

Qin Jingru said quickly.

"Well, the betrothal gift is five dollars. Do you have any objections?"

Xu Damao didn't plan to hold a wedding banquet. After all, it was his second marriage, and at most he could hold it in Qinjia Village.

"Ah? Five dollars?"

Qin Jingru was somewhat dissatisfied.

"What? Too little?"

Xu Damao frowned and said, five dollars is not a small amount of money. It is already very good for a country girl to be able to eat commercial grain, and you actually dare to ask for a dowry.

"Is ten dollars okay? My sister got married with ten dollars. I don't want to be worse off than her."

Qin Jingru expressed her thoughts. She could do without the sewing machine, but the betrothal gift had to be the same, otherwise it would be embarrassing for her.

Xu Damao also took this matter to heart. As a man in Beijing, all he cared about was his face. He was not a bit worse off, so it was ok if he was a bit taller.

"Then let's make it fifteen dollars, a little higher than your sister."

Xu Damao made a decision.

Jia Dongxu spent ten dollars to marry his wife, and I spent fifteen dollars. Doesn't this mean that I am better than Jia Dongxu?

Xu Damao actually took advantage of a dead person.

"Yeah."

Qin Jingru said happily that the current betrothal gift in Qinjia Village is only a few yuan, which many families cannot afford. Her fifteen yuan can be said to be a scorpion gift - unique.

"Well, then you should stay at your sister's house and take good care of your pregnancy. I'll go back first."

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he left. This was a decision he made after careful consideration.

Of course, there is no such thing as seamless transition in this era.

It doesn’t matter now whether the baby in Qin Jingru’s belly is hers or not.

The important thing is that he will probably not have children in the future, so the baby in Qin Jingru's belly is very important. No matter whether it is his own flesh and blood, a boy or a girl, at least he has offspring, and this is what Xu Damao values.

He did not tell Zhang Zhiqiang about this. In fact, he didn't want to talk about this with anyone. It is absolutely shameful for a man to be unable to have children.

Right now, Xu Damao felt that there was something wrong with the way those people in the courtyard looked at him, as if they were mocking him.

After returning home, Xu Damao lay down on the bed directly. He had not had a good rest in the past few days. Now that things were almost resolved, he prepared to take a nap.

in the afternoon.

Xu Damao was sleeping soundly at home when he was awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

Xu Damao looked at the old man in front of him. Judging from his facial features, Yi Zhonghai probably didn’t sleep well either. But did Yi Zhonghai have anything bothering him?

"Xu Damao, let's go in and talk."

Yi Zhonghai's tone was mixed with fatigue.

He has been busy with Sha Zhu's affairs these past two days, but who would have thought that not only was the problem not solved, but it became even more serious.

His previous connections in the police station, and because of Jia Zhang, had been used up time and again, and this time, Deputy Director An didn't even meet him.

Through visits and investigations, as well as questioning Sha Zhu, the police have almost got a grasp of the situation.

On the contrary, because Yi Zhonghai often went there, they also went to the steel rolling mill, and learned that Sha Zhu had been locked up by the security department several times for beating people in the factory.

This is not as simple as one plus one equals two, so not only has the problem not been solved, but it has become more and more complicated.

Helplessly, Yi Zhonghai could only come to Xu Damao to see if he could think of a solution from him.
