Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Chapter 521 Xu Damao is confused

The power of pillow talk is infinite. The next day, Xu Damao gritted his teeth and went to Wang Hongtao's office.

Zhang Na still disliked Xu Damao. When Xu Damao came in, she glared at him fiercely, then picked up the thermos and went out to get some water.

Xu Damao licked his lips as he looked at Zhang Na's youthful and beautiful body. Although he felt quite comfortable with Cui Xiaofeng serving him at home, the sense of accomplishment still belonged to the girl.

After all, girls don't know anything, so they can be easily fooled by whatever you say.

Moreover, Zhang Na is pretty and has a respectable job, so Xu Damao had had his eyes on her many times before.

It's just a pity that she never looked me in the eye, and I couldn't even say a few words to her...

This plate is so bright!

Xu Damao felt itchy when he saw this.

"What are you looking at, Xu Damao? Just go out if you have nothing to do. Can't you see I'm busy here?" Wang Hongtao put the newspaper in his hand on the table and asked unhappily.

"Something's going on. That... Chief Wang, I think it's been a while since we've had a drink together. I brought back an old hen from the countryside a few days ago. I plan to stew it and have a good meal together. What do you think?" Xu Damao said flatteringly with a shy smile.

Wang Hongtao snorted: "You should keep the chicken for yourself. Now that you have a wife, your family is not well off. There is no need to treat me to a meal."

Xu Damao immediately sighed: "What's the matter?"

"I only realized the difficulty after I got married. You see, I have to eat for two people, and it will be even more troublesome if I have another child."

Wang Hongtao responded angrily: "You should eat according to your ability. Don't you know your own worth? If you had asked your father before marrying a wife, you wouldn't have ended up like this!"

Xu Damao nodded repeatedly, with a bitter face: "Yes, yes. I also know that I was wrong, but now things have become like this."

"Brother, can you give me some advice? I really can't think of a solution!"

"Give me advice? What advice?" Wang Hongtao said with disdain: "Can I conjure up food for you out of thin air?"

Xu Damao stepped forward and walked to Wang Hongtao's desk. Tian smiled and waved his hand:

"No, brother, look, you are now the chief of the Labor and Personnel Department. It should be easy for you to get a job. I don't ask for a good or decent job. Just arrange a decent job for my wife. As long as the household registration problem can be solved..."

Wang Hongtao slammed the table and said, "Xu Damao, did I give you face?"

"You think the steel mill is owned by my family? Can you solve your work problems just by opening your mouth?"

"If you want to solve the household registration problem, you must be a formal worker. Now, let alone a formal worker, even a temporary worker is very popular. Do you know how many rural people want to move to the city now?"

Xu Damao was frightened and trembled: "Then Jingru's brother and sister-in-law..."

Wang Hongtao was almost laughing out of anger. He pointed at Xu Damao and said, "Yes, I did help arrange the jobs for them, but I owed Xu a favor and begged for it. It didn't fall from the sky!"

"He is Jingru's elder brother after all. I am willing to help and I can ask for it."

"Is it your turn? Let's talk about whether I am willing to help or not for now."

"How do you think I should talk to her? Oh, this woman is my neighbor's wife. Director Li, can you help me arrange a job for her?"

"Then Director Li will definitely think that I have an affair with your wife. If this gets out, will I be able to live as a human being?"

"Besides, if I help you with this favor, will I help other people in the hospital if they ask me for help or not?"

"Xu Damao, Xu Damao, could you please think carefully before you open your mouth?"

"This..." Xu Damao was stunned for a moment. He had been so busy trying to make friends that he hadn't thought of this.

My brother Lao Wang has a well-known good reputation, so it is indeed a bit difficult for him.

"Then brother, what do you think I should do?" Xu Damao asked with a frown.

"There's no other way. One word: endure." Wang Hongtao snorted coldly: "This is a dead end. If it was so easy to solve, there wouldn't be no one willing to marry a country girl."

"I was wondering how confident you were to marry me, but it seems like you are targeting me. Humph, you are probably overthinking it!"

"Go back, I can't help you with this."

"You don't have to treat me to dinner or drinks. I can't even afford all the dinners outside right now, so I don't need one or two meals from you. It's better to save some and buy some coarse grains so I can have more meals."

"Uh..."

"Sigh~~" Seeing that Wang Hongtao was really unwilling to give in, Xu Damao had no choice but to leave with a sigh.

What can I do? If all else fails, I can take advantage of the good weather and go to the countryside more often.

At this moment, Xu Damao felt mixed emotions. It was better when Lou Xiao'e was around. At that time, he never had to worry about food problems and could even secretly make some money to live a carefree life.

The key is that Lou Xiao'e is good at making friends, just like Qin Jingru next door is a real sister, and even the Wang brothers are close to him. Xu Damao believes that if Lou Xiao'e were still alive, the result would definitely be different if she came forward to talk to Qin Jingru in a situation like today.

But he never thought of blaming Cui Xiaofeng for not knowing how to maintain a relationship or anything like that.

After all, Lou Xiao'e was born in a wealthy family. How many people are there who are good at relationships like her? How can a country girl like Cui Xiaofeng compare to her?

.....

"Brother Tao, what did Xu Damao want to ask you for just now?"

After Xu Damao left, Zhang Na also came back. After Wang Hongtao became the section chief, he transferred Zhang Na over as well and promoted her to a lower level.

Wang Hongtao smiled and replied, "Nothing. Didn't he marry a rural woman? He couldn't make enough money so he wanted me to help his wife find a job."

Zhang Na felt nervous after hearing this. She had been with Lou Xiao'e before and was worried that her man would...

"What are you thinking about? Can't you just hope for me?" Wang Hongtao rubbed Zhang Na's head unhappily, pulled her into his arms and said lovingly, "I just rejected him."

"You guys are enough for me."

"Yeah." Zhang Na was also easily satisfied. The man rubbed her and her heart softened: "I'm not saying I want to control you or anything. I just want you to be careful. Xu Damao is not a good person at first glance. You have to be careful of him."

"I'll be careful, don't worry."

"Come on, let's go inside and talk." Wang Hongtao took Zhang Na's hand and pulled her into the lounge.

"It's still early in the morning!" Zhang Na pouted and said unwillingly.

"Yeah, that's right. Let's go during lunch break." Wang Hongtao scratched his head and then ordered, "You step aside for a while and wait for me to call."
