Siheyuan: Starting to work in the security department

The excitement in the backyard gradually faded away, and it was unknown what Xu Damao and Yu Haitang discussed at home.

The next day, the rumor that Xu Damao was a mule spread like wildfire.

Courtyard No. 95 has become famous again, and its reputation of having four extremely poor families in one courtyard is quite intimidating.

Three truths and one lie, this is really too bizarre!

Yi Zhonghai, who had originally walked out of the shadows, retreated again.

Xu Damao, Yan Jiecheng and Sha Zhu all had dark faces the whole day.

No matter where I go, I can feel the scrutiny and ridicule of others.

Yan Jiecheng felt extremely aggrieved.

Both he and Yu Li went to the hospital for reproductive testing, and both were healthy.

But no matter how hard the two tried, they couldn't have a child. It was really weird.

Sha Zhu also has no way to express his pain.

Qin Huairu was obviously a woman who loved to bear children, but after marrying him, there was no movement in her belly.

This also made Shazhu start to doubt himself. Am I also a mule?

I wonder what Sha Zhu would feel if he knew that Qin Huairu had already had an IUD inserted.

The most wronged and innocent ones are Li and Yu Haitang's parents' families.

The two daughters married into No. 95 Courtyard, but they didn't have any children.

Upon hearing the news, Yu's mother fainted from anger and was sent to the hospital.

In the afternoon, Yu Haitang and Yu Li were called back to her parents' home by their families.

Evening

Xu Damao came to Niu Ping'an's house and invited him to drink.

"Ping An, come to my place and have a drink with me!"

"Okay, where's Yu Haitang?"

Niu Ping'an did not refuse. Today was Xu Damao's Good Friday, and it was normal for him to feel upset and want to find someone to talk to.

"My mother-in-law was hospitalized and was called back."

Thinking of this, Xu Damao couldn't stop feeling depressed and anxious.

Because of him, the mother-in-law was so angry that she didn't know whether she could keep Yu Haitang as her daughter-in-law.

"You didn't go take a look?"

Niu Ping'an was speechless. His mother-in-law was in the hospital, but as a son-in-law, he didn't go to visit her. He was very heartless.

"It's better not to make things worse."

Xu Damao replied sullenly.

Niu Ping'an suddenly came to his senses. It seemed that his mother-in-law was mad at him. No wonder she didn't dare to visit her.

"Jingru, I'm going to Brother Damao's house to drink. You and the kids can eat later."

Niu Ping'an shouted towards the kitchen, and without waiting for Qin Jingru's response, he went to Xu's house with Xu Damao.

Xu Damao obviously came prepared. The wine he drank was Fenjiu, and the side dishes were pork head and peanuts.

"Ping An, what do you think I should do?"

The two clinked glasses, and Xu Damao then asked.

Xu Damao experienced what Yi Zhonghai went through today, but his situation is much better than Yi Zhonghai's at the time.

He was caught in a dilemma because of the pressure from his parents on one hand and the lack of understanding from his wife on the other.

"what do you think?"

Niu Ping'an also felt that Xu Damao's problem was very tricky and wanted to hear his thoughts first.

"I want to adopt a foster home to support me in my old age. I don't want to be as calculating as Yi Zhonghai."

Xu Damao still remembers the lesson learned from Yi Zhonghai.

It was a calculation that spanned several decades, and everything was for the sake of retirement.

Xu Damao doesn't want to be isolated and abandoned like him.

"What about Yu Haitang?"

Niu Ping'an nodded and asked again.

"She absolutely refused to agree."

Speaking of this, Xu Damao felt very depressed.

Yu Haitang doesn't care whether she has children or not, but she is strongly opposed to adoption.

The two had a disagreement on the issue of retirement.

"Brother Damao, things have come to this point, haven't you gone to the hospital for a check-up?"

Niu Ping'an looked at Xu Damao strangely and really wanted to break open his head to see what was inside.

In the past, Xu Damao was reluctant to go to the hospital for check-ups because of his dignity;

Now that it's exposed, why are you still hiding it?

"I'm afraid of being embarrassed!"

“It has been spread like this today, what is there to be afraid of!

Technology is advancing with each passing day, and you are not that old, so go to the hospital for a checkup first, maybe there is still a cure!"

Niu Ping'an still felt that Xu Damao should get checked first to make sure there was no cure before making any further plans.

"Um..

Jie Cheng said that he and Yu Li had both been to the hospital for checkups and both were in good health.

Xu Damao agreed with her and then turned to talk about Yan Jiecheng, the negative example.

Obviously, Xu Damao still can't let go of his pride and is deceiving himself.

"Everyone's physical condition is different, so it's safer to check first."

Niu Ping'an still tried to give him another piece of advice. Three times the limit is enough. If Xu Damao still refused to repent, Niu Ping'an would not say any more.

"What if I can't be cured?"

Xu Damao didn't insist any further and instead asked about the worst possible outcome.

"It's not a big problem actually, don't you have a younger sister?

It’s just that it’s hard to explain to your parents.”

Niu Ping'an thought that Xu Damao had a younger sister, who was about the same age as He Yushui and should have been married long ago.

Xu Damao’s retirement problem is actually not difficult to solve, it just depends on what choice he makes.

If you don't want to divorce Yu Haitang, then let your nephews and nieces take care of you in your old age.

His situation is different from Yi Zhonghai's.

Yi Zhonghai is a lonely man, but Xu Damao at least has blood relatives.

However, it will take some effort to deal with Xu Fugui.

A daughter who is married off is like water spilled. After all, a daughter is the continuation of the family line for other families.

However, if it is confirmed that Xu Damao is infertile, I think Xu Fugui will not object.

At least my nephews and nieces have half of Xu family’s blood.

Xu Damao's eyes lit up and he nodded secretly. This was a good idea.

But soon, Xu Damao sighed again.

“Hey, Ping An, after my sister got married, I became estranged from her.

I don’t know if she can accept this proposal.”

Xu Damao’s sister is Xu Xiaoqing. She is about the same age as He Yushui and has experienced similar things.

The Xu family’s living conditions are pretty good, right?

But Xu Xiaoqing's life was not very good.

After getting married, she is still a character that is not loved by her grandmother and uncle.

It is so similar to He Yushui.

Xu Fugui is not short of money, but he plans to leave all his money to Xu Damao.

After all, Xu Damao is the only male in the Xu family, and he is the one who will be taken care of in his old age.

Xu Damao was only concerned with his own enjoyment and didn't take care of his own sister at all.

Now he has to beg others for mercy, and Xu Damao feels a little unpredictable.

"There's no such thing as an unresolved feud between siblings. Go out together more often. Even if you have a purpose, I don't think she would object."

Niu Ping'an had nothing much to say and could only offer some symbolic comfort.

"Do you think Yu Haitang will divorce me?"

Xu Damao asked somewhat nervously.

I've been with Yu Haitang for such a long time, and except for not having children, everything else is very comfortable.

The two of them have similar values, are not short of money, and don't have to quarrel over trivial matters in life, so they get along very happily.

Xu Damao doesn't want to lose Yu Haitang as his partner.

In fact, although Xu Damao's situation is a bit bad, it is still very easy for him to find another wife.

If it is just for retirement provision, Niu Ping'an thinks that it would be best for Xu Damao to get divorced and find a woman to take care of the children.

With a stepson at home and a nephew outside, it is double insurance.

"That depends on whether she can withstand the pressure from her parents."

The two sisters of the Yu family have their own personalities and will not compromise easily.

Compared with Yu Haitang, Niu Pingan feels that Yu Li is more likely to get divorced.

Yu Li did not enjoy any happiness in the Yan family;

Yu Haitang is different. Without Xu Damao, the rich man, she would not be able to find a sucker to satisfy her desire for the petty bourgeois life.

"Let's not talk about these troubles anymore, let's drink!"

Things will work out when the time comes. Xu Damao didn't think any more and started to persuade people to drink.

That night, Xu Damao got drunk, as if he wanted to vent all the depression in his heart.
