Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

Wu Caihua was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xu Wudi unconsciously. Xu Wudi said, "It's only about 20,000 or 30,000 yuan!"

"Twenty or thirty thousand?!" Xu Damao jumped up immediately, scratched his ears, and asked, "Mom! Are you sure?!"

Xu Wood said somewhat embarrassedly: "Da Mao, it is indeed a little too much."

Xu Damao said, "Dad, it's not a little more. It's too much." Then Xu Damao pointed at his nose and asked, "Dad, do you think I'm worth this money? If I am, then you can sell me!"

Xu Wood said: "Da Mao, others don't understand you. As your father, don't I understand you?! For others, it is difficult to come up with this money. But for you, Xu Damao, it is just a drop in the bucket."

Xu Damao said firmly: "I have no money!"

Wu Caihua then said, "Why would you open a video studio if you don't have money?!"

Xu Damao laughed and said, "Mom! You know what, those video halls are not mine. I'm just helping out there to earn some extra money."

Xu Wude, who seemed to have a clear mind, was stunned when he heard Xu Damao's words: "Is the news wrong?!" Then Xu Wude looked at Xu Damao and felt that Xu Damao was not lying. After hesitating for a while, Xu Wude asked: "How much money do you have now?!"

Xu Damao turned his head and winked at Ma Fengxia and asked, "Wife, how much savings do we have now?!"

Ma Fengxia immediately understood what Xu Damao meant and replied, "Not much, about 500 or 600 yuan!"

Xu Damao pretended to be surprised and asked, "Wife, why is there only this much?!"

Ma Fengxia said: "How dare you ask me this?! Didn't we ask you to use the money at home to buy a motorcycle?!"

"Ouch!" Xu Damao slapped his forehead and said, "Dad, you should have come two years earlier. I used all the money in the family to buy a motorcycle. The motorcycle is now parked in the yard."

After hearing what Xu Damao said, Wu Caihua said angrily: "Da Mao, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You have a bicycle, why did you buy a motorcycle?! Waste so much money?!"

Xu Damao said, "Mom, at my age, what else can I do if I don't eat and have fun?! Besides, it's not your money that I'm spending. I used the family's money to buy a motorcycle, and my wife didn't say anything about me. Why are you saying anything about me?! Besides, since Xiaoling invited her son-in-law to come in, we have separated."

Before Xu Damao could finish his words, Xu Wude shouted, "Even if we split up, I'm still your father! Isn't it okay for me to ask you for some money?!"

Xu Damao answered very straightforwardly: "Yes! Of course! I didn't say no. But the amount you asked for is too big. I can't take it out. So, don't accuse me of being unfilial. I'll keep 100 yuan from the family money just in case. The rest is all yours." Then he said to Ma Fengxia: "Wife, remember to go to the bank and withdraw the money tomorrow."

"Hey!" Ma Fengxia pretended to be reluctant and agreed.

Xu Damao continued, "Dad! You used to be the driver of the Lou family, and mom was the dowry girl of Lou Zhenhua's wife. They have been back to Sijiu City for some years. Now the most luxurious five-star hotel in Sijiu City is owned by the Lou family. You have such a strong relationship, why don't you go to the Lou family and think of a solution?! You come here to ask for money from my poor son. Do you think it's appropriate?!"

After hearing what Xu Damao said, Xu Wude and his wife were speechless. To put it bluntly, the maidservant at that time was a bed-warmer prepared for Lou Zhenhua. Although Xu Wude was Lou Zhenhua's driver, he was just a servant. The servant abducted the master's bed-warmer. Xu Wude was lucky to be alive. Later, in view of Xu Wude's loyalty for many years, and Wu Caihua's appearance was not good enough, Lou Zhenhua did not kill him and gave Xu Wude a way out. But then again, Xu Wude's brain is still very active. Xu Damao is like his father in this respect. Xu Wude was a heat treatment worker in the steel rolling mill. Xu Wude felt that heat treatment was too hard. It happened that the person in charge of showing movies for the leaders in the factory fell ill. Xu Wude took the initiative to take care of that person for a few days. Later, Xu Wude used some dishonorable means to learn the skill of showing movies. In addition, Xu Wude used his brain again to squeeze out the original person who showed movies in the factory.

Xu Wude said awkwardly: "I haven't been in touch with the boss for decades. The relationship has long faded. Even if I go to him, he won't help. Damao, you have a lot of connections, how about you help me think of a solution?!"

Xu Damao said, "I have no way. Even if there is one, I won't go looking for him. What if you can't pay the money and hide? What if they look for me? It's getting late. You'd better go back. Come and get the money tomorrow night!" After saying that, Xu Damao was about to drive Xu Wude and Wu Caihua out.

Seeing this, Xu Wude knew that he could not get any money from Xu Damao. However, Xu Wude was still unwilling to give up. He held the door and said, "Do you know where Xiaoling went?!"

Xu Damao replied: "You kicked your daughter out, why are you asking me?! I'm just her brother, not her father, how can she tell me where she is?! Otherwise, you can go back and ask that kid Xu Qiang. Maybe he knows where his mother went?!"

Xu Wude thought to himself: "Let me ask Xu Qiang?! He's squatting in there now! How can I ask him?!" Xu Wude sighed deeply and left with his wife.

Xu Damao watched his parents disappear into the darkness, sighed, locked the door, and sat down at the table. Ma Fengxia asked, "Damo, are you really not going to help your father?!"

Xu Damao replied, "If it's one or two thousand yuan, I can help. But twenty or thirty thousand! This is not a small amount. Even if our family can afford it, we can't take it! This is clearly my dad and his people want to make us the scapegoat. I don't think his business failed. It's most likely that something happened to Xu Qiang."

Ma Fengxia asked: "If Xu Qiang really got into trouble, as his uncle, are you really not going to care?!"

Xu Damao replied, "Why bother?! We don't have anyone to take care of us in our old age." Then he asked, "Where's our daughter?! Why can't I see her?!"

Ma Fengxia replied: "My daughter went to the movies with her little sister. I think they will be back soon."

Xu Damao said, "Wife, our daughter is not young anymore, it's time for her to find a husband. When you have time, ask her what kind of man she likes. We will help her find one later."

Ma Fengxia joked, "What?! You don't plan to find a live-in son-in-law?! Are you planning to marry your daughter off?!"

Xu Damao said: "It is my wish to find a live-in son-in-law. But as long as my daughter is happy, it doesn't matter if there is no live-in son-in-law. Besides, even if I marry her off, will she still not recognize me as her father?!"

"That definitely won't happen!" Xu Lianxi walked in from outside and said with a smile.

"Isn't that the end?!" Xu Damao echoed and asked, "Girl, what movie are you going to see today?!"

Xu Lianxi replied: "There are no new movies, just old ones. I watched "Echoes of Qilian Mountain"."
