Chapter 299 This is fate
February 5th, sunny.
Xu Damao got up early and came to the compound to clean up the housework.
I haven’t been back for more than a year, so I have to clean up for at least a long time.
Widow Li and her children were still resting in the hotel.
After he has packed everything up, he will move in.
backyard.
It was very lively outside Xu's house.
Last night, most of the beasts, including Liu Haizhong, only received the candy eggs from Yanbu Gui instead of waiting for Xu Damao to come with his wife and children.
So they were very curious and asked Xu Damao questions all over the place.
Xu Damao answered with a smile on his face and an excellent attitude. At the same time, he kept busy with his housework.
The third aunt also came to help.
After all, the rest of the wedding candies and eggs were taken away by her family, so naturally this little help was nothing.
Besides, the two families might be able to do business together in the future! You have to have a good relationship first.
Bangzhong was in a bad mood.
When he learned that Xu Damao only went to see He Laogou last night, he felt that he had been underestimated.
But there is nothing we can do.
He has no power, no money, and he is not even around his children. Why should others take him seriously? Why doesn't he take a shower because of his age?
"Haha, second uncle, I just wanted to tell you something."
After Xu Damao saw Liu Haizhong, he walked over with a rag and discussed with a smile:
"I want to set up a few tables in the courtyard for two days in a row, treat everyone to a drink, and celebrate the birth of my son! So, I want to ask you to help set it up, okay?"
"Why not?" Yan Bugui pushed up his glasses and said with a smile: "It's almost the Chinese New Year. If you set up the banquet for two days in a row, everyone can be busy in advance. How great is that? Damao, don't worry, I The second uncle will definitely help you!"
‘Well you old Yan, I’m going to get a Joe first! ’
Liu Haizhong thought this, and a smile appeared on his fat old face:
"Da Mao, you have a son at this old age. This is a great joy. You must celebrate it. Of course your third uncle and I will help you organize it."
If they can have a good relationship, do business with Xu Damao and make a lot of money, then his sons will definitely come back again. Are you afraid that there will be no one to take care of them then?
Xu Damao smiled and said, "Thank you both very much!"
The two-day banquet starts with dinner tonight and ends with lunch the day after tomorrow.
So by two o'clock in the afternoon, a shed had been set up in the backyard, the chef team hired from outside was in place, and all the tables, chairs and benches were put in place.
The atmosphere suddenly became lively.
And Xu Damao's wife and children finally showed up.
Back then, when Yi Zhonghai gave birth to his son, everyone felt that they were not alike, so they had to go against their will and say they were similar; but now that the child looks very much like Xu Damao, everyone sincerely praises their resemblance.
He also praised Teacher Xue for his wonderful name.
He also praised Da Mao's determination and courage to spend millions, and he was worthy of being a person who does great things.
All in all, there is no disappointment in Lu Xun's book that says "this child will die in the future".
After all, we are all beasts, but we are not stupid.
Afternoon, half past two.
Chen Tao was leaning on the sofa and reading a book. He put his feet on Miss Xue's legs and asked her to cut his nails.
On the TV, the 1987 version of the classic "Dream of Red Mansions" was being replayed.
Baochai stretched out his hand, pinched Daiyu's cheeks and said with a smile: "This pretty girl has a mouth that makes people hate her, but she doesn't even like her"
After hearing this, Miss Xue also twisted one hand on Chen Tao's foot.
Chen Tao couldn't help laughing and said: "Xiao Ling, you screwed up the wrong one. I'm not Sister Lin, but your husband."
Miss Xue laughed twice, then pounced on Chen Tao, trying to pinch his face.
Chen Tao blocked him from the left and right, and at the same time said with a look of disgust: "Go and wash your hands first, and then come here and touch me."
Miss Xue said angrily: "What I touched was your own foot. Do you dislike it too?"
Chen Tao joked: "Just because it's my feet, that's why I dislike it; if it's your feet, it's too late for me to like them!"
"I don't believe it unless you let me try it with my feet!"
With that said, Miss Xue stretched out her long legs and used her flexible toes to pinch Chen Tao's face.
Just when her jio was about to touch her husband's old face, there was a knock on the door.
Miss Xue quickly put her feet back and returned to her serious Bodhisattva appearance.
"Mom, open the door."
Old Si He Weixing's voice sounded outside the door.
The temperature is still very low now, the doors are closed, and this kid went out to play today without a key.
Miss Xue hurriedly opened the door, and then held the fourth child in her arms to greet him.
"Mom, I'm already in sixth grade. Can you stop hugging me like this? I'm not a child."
"Don't talk about sixth grade. Even if you are studying for a doctorate now, you are still a little kid in your mother's eyes!"
"..."
The fourth child not only looks like his mother, but also has a very similar personality to his second brother. He is very accommodating to his mother and can only be held by her.
And if it were the eldest and the third child, they would definitely say something disgusting.
Of course, even if you say you are disgusted with it, you will still feel that it is useful in your heart.
Two minutes later, a family of three was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and the atmosphere was quite warm.
Jia family.
Silly Zhu was still lying on the kang, while Qin Huairu was in the main room, talking to Mrs. Jia Zhang.
"Mom, after thinking about it, I still think I should go there, otherwise I will be too unsocial!"
Qin Huairu hated Xu Damao and shouldn't have celebrated him.
But the problem is that the information he has is crucial, related to whether Bangge is extinct.
Therefore, Qin Huairu had to find a way to improve her relationship with him.
For this reason, I can only feel wronged by Silly Zhu.
As for why he has to be wronged every time... Who told him to be a licking dog? Just adapt to it!
"Yes, there will still be a long time to come. We have to get along!"
Although Mrs. Jia Zhang sometimes speaks out of mind, she is not stupid and understands what her daughter-in-law means, so she agrees with it and thinks that Silly Zhu's feelings are irrelevant.
"In this case, our family will give you a hundred yuan in red envelopes, right?"
The current salary level in the capital is around five or six hundred, and Shazhu's salary is even higher, so Qin Huairu can afford the one hundred yuan.
Of course, she also felt some pain, but she had no choice but to endure it in order to keep her son from leaving the house.
"One hundred? That's too much! I think twenty yuan is enough!"
Mrs. Jia Zhang curled her lips, feeling that Qin Huairu was really a prodigal woman.
But she didn't have to pay, so that's what she said, not really objecting.
Qin Huairu also understood this, so he took the money out of his pocket.
After counting back and forth for a while, he reluctantly took out a hundred-dollar bill, wrapped it in a red note, and prepared to go to the backyard to give it as a gift later.
Silly Zhu in the room could hear them talking, but still didn't say a word.
He actually hasn't slept since last night until now.
He really couldn't sleep.
Why! Why did Xu Damao have a child but he was still homeless?
He did so many immoral things, and yet he still had a child at the end of his life!
And what about yourself? I dare not say how many good things you have done, but at least you haven’t done any bad things, right?
Why would I become homeless?
God is so unfair!
Silly Zhu thought a lot, and even thought about divorcing Qin Huairu, finding another young wife, and then borrowing money from his father to go to the hospital where Xu Damao was treated.
Silly Zhu thinks that his father will definitely borrow this money...as long as he divorces Qin Huairu.
But not long after the idea came to him, he gave himself a big mouth.
Sister Qin is such a nice person, how can you divorce her?
If I divorce her, what's the difference between me and that beast Xu Damao?
finally.
Silly Zhu gave up the idea, but he still could not accept the death of his family calmly.
Because of this, he was so conflicted and painful, and fell into isolation.
The other pain comes from the stick.
He was convinced that as long as he dared to ask his father to lend money to Bangge for medical treatment, what awaited him would be not only not being able to borrow money, but also severing the relationship between father and son.
But Qin Huairu will definitely force him to borrow the money.
This would be tantamount to letting him make a choice again.
Last time, he chose Sister Qin and wiped out the relationship between father and son; but this time he had no choice but to put an end to the relationship between father and son himself.
And I can’t even borrow money!
Alas
Silly Zhu sighed in his heart, melancholy.
night.
The backyard was bustling with people.
Chen Tao, Miss Xue, Damao, Xiao Li, the two uncles Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, as well as Xu's father and Xu's mother, a total of eight people, sat at the main table to eat.
As for Yi Zhonghai... Lao Deng, who can't control his sphincter, is not qualified to eat at the table.
Just ask Qin Huairu to serve him some food and pour him a bowl of wine.
But Jia Zhang, who was once a "devourer of excrement and urine", can serve it.
"Uncle He and Aunt Xue, one of you is a writer and the other is a musician. You are both the glory of our compound. I respect you!"
Xu Damao raised his wine glass and said to Chen Tao and Miss Xue.
"You'd better drink slowly, don't lie down under the table before you have three glasses."
Chen Tao drank juice and Miss Xue drank hot tea. No one was surprised.
After all, they look so young, so they must take good care of themselves. It is normal not to drink alcohol.
"Hahahaha Okay, I'll drink slowly!"
Xu Damao couldn't drink enough, especially fast drinks, and he got drunk after just a few drinks.
As for Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, a pair of fat and thin men, their drinking capacity is quite good, and Xu Damao cannot compare with them.
Therefore, after everyone toasted, Xu Damao went to other tables to toast, so as not to fall down first before completing the circle and make others laugh.
And accompanying him was naturally Widow Li.
After they finished their toast and returned to the table, Xu's father and Xu's mother, who were both beasts, also left their seats and toasted to their neighbors.
Today is a big day.
Therefore, even if there was some trouble with the beasts in the compound in the past, Xu's father and Xu's mother did not cause any trouble.
Jia family.
Yi Zhonghai drank a drink, then looked at Silly Zhu in the room through the glassless window, and said with concern:
"Zhuzi, eat something! You've been hungry all day, how can you not eat?"
Silly Zhu remained silent.
Just when Yi Zhonghai thought he didn't want to eat yet, he saw him sitting up, taking off his quilt and putting on his shoes, and walked out of the room with a serious face.
It is true that Silly Zhu has no appetite, but he is really hungry and must eat before he has the strength to continue to be autistic.
After he sat down, Yi Zhonghai poured him a glass of wine and then advised:
"Don't think so much about it, Zhuzi! This is fate, you can't force it."
You idiot, accept your fate quickly and take care of me in your old age!
