Chapter 39: Drawing Water from a Bamboo Basket and Empty Game
They let their daughter marry him, which was undoubtedly a concession, because they knew that Lou Guodong had heard some rumors from the top and realized that his family background was not ideal. Although the donation of the factory was affirmed by the top, in order to avoid potential troubles, they hoped to ensure that their daughter had a stable life.
Compared to the Lou family's immense wealth, the Xu family was just a working class family that came from the serf class. With such a dual identity as a backup, even if something broke out, at least it would not directly affect Lou Xiao'e.
The key point mentioned in the letter - the issue of infertility - really shocked them. For Lou Guodong, it was inevitable for men to have affairs, but he was so powerful and had built a network of relationships in the factory for many years. Could it be that he was really unaware of what Xu Damao had done?
What really made him look serious was that Xu Damao knew that he was infertile but did not make it public. If Lou Xiao'e married such a man, wouldn't she be stigmatized as a childless person in the future?
In today's social atmosphere, a wife without children will be criticized or even maliciously slandered! "Impossible? I think this must be a rumor, and there must be a reason for it!"
After saying that, he slammed the lit metal lighter on the table and said, "The engagement cannot be delayed any longer. You need to investigate Xu Damao's case as soon as possible."
"I'll have someone check on Xu Damao's movie screening in the countryside. As for the infertility issue, you can arrange for a comprehensive pre-marital medical examination at a hospital you trust."
After giving the order, he immediately said.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Mrs. Lou nodded hurriedly.
Seeing this, Lou Guodong did not wait until tomorrow and immediately made a phone call, "Contact Professor Qiao directly, that is, Peking University Hospital. Let's start arranging everything now."
As he spoke, he stopped smoking, put his unlit cigar aside, picked up the phone on the desk and dialed a number.
As the saying goes, in any era and any world, ordinary people cannot imagine how bizarre the lives of rich people are.
In the eyes of many people, the medical expert, who holds a high status, was able to arrange the doctor's appointment and physical examination with just one phone call. "I have arranged it. You can bring the Xu couple with you tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Lou Guodong instructed, "By the way, don't forget to take Ezi with you. Just say you're going to experience it together. It's for the benefit of the young people. Even if the content of the letter is not credible, there will be a way out."
"I see. Let's do it tonight. Let the driver, Master Liu, take a trip."
Mrs. Lou, the mother who understood the importance of this, also agreed, "Let Master Liu tell them directly that we will see you at the hospital tomorrow morning. Then we can say that the test results will take time, which will give you time to fully investigate."
"It's more than enough for the whole day."
Lou Guodong nodded in confirmation.
"Dad, will the two things in the letter really happen?"
The mother asked worriedly.
"Not all of the things have to come true, but as long as one of them is true, Ezi cannot marry him."
He took out his cigar and took a deep breath, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes, "We chose Xu Damao based on our trust in him."
"Humph! I never thought that my careful planning would backfire. At such a critical moment, I suffered such a blow."
Mrs. Lou could tell that her husband believed it.
After learning about her husband's thoughts, Mrs. Xu suddenly seemed extremely despicable to her, because the person she was talking about was her daughter's sweetheart!
At this time, the Xu family was unaware of this change, and He Yuzhu did not expect the Lou family to react so violently and quickly.
But he remained indifferent and just thought about how to ruin Xu Damao's good deeds.
After distributing the wedding candies in the backyard, he took Li Anxin to visit Yi Zhonghai's house, but found that he was not at home. Only the aunt was having dinner with Xiaodang.
"Auntie, the master hasn't finished get off work yet, right?"
He Yuzhu asked even though he knew the answer.
"No, Bang Bang hasn't come back yet. He went out to help look for it."
The aunt's face was obviously not good. "And Aunt Jia and Grandma Qin have been looking for a long time outside, but still can't find anyone."
"Hey? Bang Bang hasn't come home yet?"
He Yuzhu looked towards the west wing. The lights were off and there was silence.
"Yes."
The aunt nodded in response and sighed helplessly: "There are more and more of them recently, which makes me worried."
"It's okay. Bangbang is very smart. The neighbors are familiar with each other. If a stranger really shows up, they will definitely notice it quickly and everyone will help."
He Yuzhu hurried to comfort her.
"It's been a whole day and there's still no news. I'm really worried."
The aunt had a worried look on her face.
"Don't worry, the child is just making a fuss, he will be fine in a while. These candies are a gift from Xiaoxin and I after our wedding, take them and enjoy them."
He Yuzhu didn't say anything further after he finished speaking and directly handed the wedding candy to the aunt.
"Okay, okay, I must try this candy."
The aunt forced a smile, but her eyes were somewhat complicated as she looked at the young couple.
Although this auntie gave a good impression on the surface in the original drama, she has been with Yi Zhonghai for many years. Could it be that she was unaware of his calculations and what he did behind his back?
Apparently that’s not entirely true!
After all, it was only because she failed to continue the Yi family's bloodline that she had to watch the Yi family gradually decline. The guilt in her heart forced her to choose to acquiesce in certain things.
Although not a core participant, the role of an accomplice is indispensable.
"Then you go ahead and do your thing. I'll continue to deliver the candies." He Yuzhu smiled and said, "By the way, I'd like you to pass on the wedding candies from the Jia family. Although I don't believe Geng'er will get lost, I don't want to bring bad luck to the Jia family again."
"No problem, Lao Yi will send it to you later." An old lady nodded helplessly. She knew very well what He Yuzhu meant.
"Thank you!" The old lady thought: If He Yuzhu had been chosen that year, perhaps the situation would have been better.
However, He Yuzhu did not pay attention to the old lady's thoughts and he did not care about it at all.
Forget about taking care of your parents in their old age and seeing them to the end of their lives! If you want to count on your children to be filial to you, why are you doing that?
When you raise a child, even if the child is not very filial when he grows up, at least you can kowtow and cry.
Besides, Yi Zhonghai earns a lot of money every month, so it won’t be a problem for him to raise three or five children.
In this way, as long as we can educate a child who knows filial piety, wouldn't it be a huge profit?
How could it be that after raising a son for someone else with all the hard work, he ended up not recognizing me, and in the end, he couldn't even have a grandson. Isn't it obvious that all my efforts were in vain?
You deserve it!
After distributing the wedding candies in the middle courtyard, He Yuzhu and Li Anxin continued to the front courtyard. The first place they visited was the home of the third uncle Yan Bugui. The third aunt Yang Ruihua had been waiting for their arrival.
"Uncles and aunties, these are our wedding candies. Please accept them so that you can have some sweetness on your lips." After saying this, He Yuzhu placed the prepared candies on the table.
"Great, great." Yan Bugui nodded with satisfaction after looking at the amount of candy. But he wanted more than that, and then said with a smile: "Zhu Zi, it's a big event in life, getting married, why can't you invite everyone to a few tables?"
"Actually, I have thought about this." He Yuzhu nodded in admission.
"So when do you plan to hold it? I can ask my third aunt to help with the arrangements, and everything will be fine." Yan Bugui said excitedly.
He Yuzhu anticipated the other party's wishful thinking, and immediately smiled bitterly, and once again brought up the reason of being at the blind mother-in-law's house.
"Uncle, I think the people in our yard are jealous and that's why they reported me. You are an educated and cultured person, smarter than us. Can you help me find the person who is the most suspicious?" He Yuzhu asked angrily.
"Oh," Yan Bugui thought, do you still need me to help you analyze it? The suspect is either Xu Damao or Yi Zhonghai!
Xu Damao has had a deep grudge against you since childhood, and I don’t know how many times you have shed blood.
You are in a difficult situation now and you are a chef. If they don’t move you, who else can they move?
As for Yi Zhonghai, your recent attitude has caused his status to decline, so it is only natural for him to report you!
Of course, these were all thoughts Yan Bugui could not express. He had only one principle in dealing with worldly affairs - take advantage of opportunities and do not meddle in irrelevant matters.
"Okay, I know you don't want to offend anyone, but I have some ideas in my mind." He Yuzhu curled his lips and continued, "It just so happens that in order to thank Director Wang for his matchmaking, all the inventory in our house was given away, and it cost a lot of extra money."
"Uncle, you don't know that the price of meat has risen dramatically. Also, a few days ago, I couldn't help but help Yu Shui, but I found that it's not easy to be a good person. Recently, someone came to me for help again."
"If it were someone else, I wouldn't bother to care, but what should I do with Yushui and you, the teacher? Now I have to scrape together some money, borrow some from here, borrow some from there, and I'm almost living a life of 'living beyond my means'."
"Oh, Third Uncle, listen to me. It would be great if you could lend me some physical support, like a few meat coupons or grain coupons. It would be best if you could give me some cash so that I can prepare for the wedding. When I pay you back in the future, I can get you the money with interest. Wouldn't that be more cost-effective? What do you think?"
When she heard that there was interest to be earned, the third aunt quickly looked at her husband. She felt that the deal could be done.
But what no one expected was that Yan Bugui actually shook his head and directly refused.
"Zhu Zi, you know my family well,"
"There are four children alone, and it's peak dinner time."
"You just spent money before you earned it. My family has already done the same thing."
"It's not that Uncle San doesn't want to help you, but my family is really unable to do so."
"no way,"
He Yuzhu nodded and said, "You have several mouths to feed in your family, and the whole family depends on your income. Well, forget it, I will find another way. If I can really raise money or bills, I will definitely host a banquet for you in the future."
Yan Bugui agreed with a fake smile: "That's fine, it's getting late, you should go home quickly, there's no need to keep me here."
After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he took Li Anxin away without hesitation.
