Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Chapter 399 Xu Damao is silent, Wang Hongtao is free and easy

When introducing Wang Hongtao, Lou Xiao'e was quite proud.

The man I chose may be a bad one, but his abilities are indeed beyond doubt. Whether in the factory, the hospital, or among peers, I have never seen anyone more outstanding than him.

Much better than Xu Damao.

So Lou Xiao'e picked out the important parts of Wang Hongtao's experience and talked about how he was sent on a business trip by the factory for half a year and was picked up by military vehicles twice, mainly to flatter him.

"He disappeared for half a year, and got promoted right after he came back. This guy is not simple!"

Lou Bancheng tapped the table and pondered inwardly.

"What's wrong, boss? Have you thought of anything?" Tan Yali asked with concern.

Lou Bancheng glared at Tan Yali and said, "Isn't it because of your problem?"

"I told you from the beginning that Xu Damao was not a good match. You didn't believe me because you have a serious peasant mentality. You think I am too picky and don't like anyone else."

"If you had listened to me at the beginning, there wouldn't be such a lot of shit!

Now, the girl has done something so... so shocking, what will happen if it gets out!"

Tan Yali was relieved to see Lou Bancheng start to blame her. As long as he stopped nagging about their daughter, it would be fine. If Lou Bancheng really got angry, not only her daughter Lou Xiao'e, but even she as a mother would not be able to bear it.

"Oh, I know I was wrong! Otherwise, why are you the boss?"

"Besides, it's been so many years since the incident. Why are you still holding on to it?"

"Okay, my Lord Bancheng, please don't be angry with me. At most, I will listen to you from now on, okay?"

Tan Yali was also very skilled. She admitted her mistakes, acted coquettishly, and made promises. She immediately arranged a set of three soft moves, the main goal of which was to make the man unable to get angry.

Lou Xiao'e, who was standing by, also changed her worry into joy and smiled secretly with her hands covering her mouth.

When Lou Bancheng glanced over, she immediately pretended to look pitiful.

Lou Bancheng looked at the two actors, one big and one small, and finally sighed helplessly and said to Lou Xiaoe: "Forget it, maybe this is your fate!"

"But then again, the man you find yourself is much better than the one your mother finds."

"It is very rare that he has gone from being an ordinary rural person with no education and no background to where he is today. It is not something that ordinary people can do."

"If he is willing to be sincere to you, it would be a good choice."

"Hey, don't worry, Dad. He's very nice to me!" Seeing that the man had gained her father's approval, Lou Xiao'e regained her former liveliness.

"Do you remember when I was pregnant and you guys went south? It was because of him taking good care of me every day that I was able to survive."

"If I just rely on Xu Damao, I'll starve to death."

"Also, Dad, he sent me a pig's stomach the night before I was hospitalized, saying that it's nutritious and good for my health. He's been very good to me, so don't worry!"

Looking at the cute and coquettish girl in front of him, Lou Bancheng seemed to see the former Tan Yali again. Both of them were equally cunning, lively, playful and willful.

"It would be even better if he could marry you!" Lou Bancheng thought about it and swallowed the words.

If this happened ten years ago, no matter how capable and promising Wang Hongtao was, he would have to be the son-in-law of the Lou family!

Just now...

Lou Bancheng shook his head helplessly, things are different now!

Then his eyes lit up quickly: What if the situation is not good? As long as the big knife does not fall, he will still be Lou Lao Hu!

Even if Lou Bancheng is down and out, it is still compared to his former self. In front of ordinary people, he is still the domineering and restrained Lou Bancheng.

......

"Big...big brother."

"Second sister."

Xu Damao was obviously shocked when he saw the two people at the door.

"Ok!"

The eldest brother-in-law, Lou Jianshe, snorted, looking very disdainful of Xu Damao, and then reminded him: "Mom and Dad are in there, keep your voice down."

The name Lou Jianshe was changed later. The reason why Lou Bancheng changed the name of his eldest son was to actively get closer to ZZ.

"Brother, you're here?" Qin Jingru immediately left the two people beside her when she saw Wang Hongtao coming. In her eyes, no one was closer to her than her own man.

"Yeah." Wang Hongtao touched Qin Jingru's head, then smiled and greeted the Lou Jianshe siblings: "You two are Xiao'e's older brothers and sisters, right?"

"My name is Wang Hongtao, and I'm Xiao'e's neighbor. I got off work early today, so I came here with Brother Damao to visit."

"This is my girlfriend Qin Jingru."

"Hello, hello." Lou Jianshe responded with a smile, and his attitude was better than that towards Xu Damao.

......

"Is it Xu Damao who is here?"

"Call him in."

Inside the room, Lou Bancheng heard the noise and called out loudly.

Xu Damao instinctively shuddered. It would have been better if it was his mother-in-law. He felt guilty about his father-in-law, who had built up a huge business from scratch, and was afraid that he would be angry if he did something wrong.

He looked at Wang Hongtao for help.

Wang Hongtao was speechless: "Why are you looking at me? He is your father-in-law, not my father-in-law. Besides, he didn't call me!"

Xu Damao looked around and then walked in cautiously.

......

As soon as the door of the ward was closed, Lou Jianshe expressed his contempt for Xu Damao without disguising himself:

"Tsk, what a useless thing."

"Uncle... Ugh."

"Brother, do you also look down on Xu Damao?" Wang Hongtao gave Lou Jianshe a cigarette and walked to the stairs with him alone to relieve their boredom.

It can be seen that the eldest brother of the Lou family was also standing quite reserved at the entrance of the ward.

"Not just me! Me, my sister, and my other brothers and sisters all look down on him."

When Lou Jianshe heard Wang Hongtao mention this, he immediately became angry and said:

"Humph, when he was a child, Aunt Tao, or Xu Damao's mother, brought him to our house when she was working. At first, he acted well, spoke sweetly, called people, and helped his mother with work."

"I later discovered that this kid was a mean boy, and he was only pretending to be well behaved in front of adults, especially my mother, who was so frightened by him that she insisted that he was obedient and sensible.

This kid loves to brag, cry, and always complain to adults. He is such a mean person."

"I wasn't at home when my sister got married, otherwise I would never have let her marry him!"

Tan Yali is Lou Bancheng's principal wife.

Lou Bancheng has many children, but the only legitimate ones are Lou Jianshe, his second sister and Lou Xiao'e. Therefore, Lou Jianshe also has a certain say in Lou Xiao'e's marriage.

After hearing what Lou Jianshe said, Wang Hongtao agreed with him: "Not bad. As the saying goes, a child's character can be seen at the age of three. If a child is like this when he grows up, he will probably not be any better. It's just a pity for Xiao'e..."

"My dad also said that Xu Damao was short-sighted and had a strong sense of small-scale peasantry. I thought this would not work out, but who knew my mom..."

"Oh, I won't say any more. The more I talk, the angrier I get!"

"Speak of you, brother."

"They say that appearance is determined by the heart. I see that you are a handsome man, and you seem to be quite upright. Why did you go with Xu Damao?"

Perhaps Wang Hongtao's words touched his heart, Lou Jianshe began to praise Wang Hongtao.

Wang Hongtao chuckled: "How about you, brother, you are good at judging people?!"

"I just happened to live next door to Xu Damao's family. I was touched by Sister Xiao'e's kindness, enthusiasm and liveliness. I became closer to her family just for her sake."

"The girl standing next to my second sister is my girlfriend. Do you think she looks a bit like Sister Xiao'e?"

Lou Jianshe thought for a moment and then slapped his thigh: "Brother, don't say that!"

"It's a reminder that they are indeed very similar."

"Both of them are carefree, lively and active, and their personalities are both simple and straightforward. It seems that your partner is also a person who loves to laugh. To be honest, brother, my sister's personality was even better before she married Xu Damao. She was cheerful all day long. Even if I am annoyed at work, I feel much better when I see her when I get home."

Wang Hongtao grinned: "Really? So this is fate!"

"Now you know why I can go with Xu Damao?"

"That's all because of Sister Xiao'e and my wife's relationship!"

"Uh-huh..."

Just as the two were chatting more and more happily and sympathizing with each other, the door of the ward was opened.

Xu Damao walked out with slow steps, a look of relief on his face.

"Brother, my dad is calling you to come in too."

"I'm done!"

After saying this, he clapped his hands, as if he was gloating over someone else's misfortune.
