Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

Even though he didn't use it in the right place, he's still a man.

Yingzi's mother peeked through the doorway twice, then turned and went back inside.

This commotion isn't anything special; that young woman didn't come to arrest Xu Damao and bring him to court.

Xu Damao couldn't possibly go with her to see the officials.

In the end, it's nothing more than losing money or getting married, that's all.

Yingzi's mother had seen this kind of excitement many times before.

Boring!

Back in the room, Yingzi asked with a smile, "Mom, what's up?"

"That Xu Damao in your backyard, he got some young girl pregnant... that man..."

"Pah!" Yingzi's mother spat.

He has no official status whatsoever, yet he's taken advantage of a young woman and gotten her pregnant. This man is utterly despicable.

The excitement wasn't anything special, but Yingzi's mother looked down on these kinds of people from the bottom of her heart.

That's not a thing... we should stay away from it.

"Who?" Yang Jianguo was startled.

Xu Damao? He got someone pregnant??

This……

There seems to be something wrong!

Although it wasn't mentioned in the original drama, Lou Xiao'e didn't get pregnant during those years with him.

It was like a shot to the very soul of Sha Zhu, hitting the bullseye!

Is it even necessary to say who's at fault here?

Now, someone has come to our door saying that Xu Damao got a girl pregnant.

Tsk tsk~

Does this mean that evil people will eventually be punished by heaven?

Judging from that old lady's posture, Xu Damao is probably not going to recover this time.

Getting married because of pregnancy isn't so bad.

The big red "囍" character pasted on the door needs to be replaced with a green one.

"Yingzi, have you finished eating?" Yang Jianguo glanced at his wife.

Seeing her nod in response, "I'm done eating," he got up, grabbed his coat, and went out.

Yingzi followed closely behind, saying as she walked, "Mom, don't overwork yourself at home all day. There are some chores you don't need to do."

Yingzi's mother wiped the stove and said with a laugh, "Alright, I don't need you, little girl, to teach me. Mom is tired, so I'll rest."

Helpless, Yingzi stopped and abruptly hugged her: "Mom, thank you."

Yingzi's mother stood there, somewhat bewildered, her body stiff.

The girl thanked herself.

That sounds a bit strange...

But why do I feel so warm inside?

It felt like a hot water bottle was placed in my chest...it felt so good.

"Mom knows, go quickly!" Yingzi's mother waved her hand and watched the two of them leave through the doorway.

Only then did he eat a couple of bites at the table, and afterwards he washed all the pots and pans and wiped the stove.

He took the unfinished shoe soles out of the basket, tucked a small stool under his arm, and walked out.

When they reached the gate to the backyard, Yingzi's mother squeezed through the crowd.

He sat down against the wall inside the doorway, watching the commotion while sewing shoe soles.

Work and leisure can be done simultaneously!

"Let me tell you, if you don't marry my daughter, this isn't over."

"No, I didn't force her, she did it willingly."

"Besides, the child is gone... why should we get this?" Xu Damao muttered to himself.

Even though it was said to be quiet, the courtyard was completely silent.

Everyone in the courtyard could hear him clearly when he opened his mouth.

He's trying to act like a scoundrel in front of someone's daughter's mother.

As expected of Xu Damao, he doesn't care about his reputation at all; he only cares about what's in his own interest.

He's had his fill of this girl.

The child is gone, so marrying her again would just be asking for trouble.

I'll go back and find a virgin, fresh and new.

That smells so good!

The woman immediately exploded when she heard that Xu Damao was shameless.

"Okay, daughter, come with Mom."

The woman pulled her daughter along and shouted, "I don't believe there's no place to seek justice!"

"Let's go to the steel rolling mill and find his supervisor."

The woman started to walk out as she spoke, but Xu Damao became a little anxious.

If we really find the factory, he'll definitely be in deep trouble.

Nowadays, his powerful backer, Deputy Factory Director Li, is long gone.

Xu Damao didn't curry favor with any powerful figures; he was just well-connected in the propaganda department.

Such a shameful incident has occurred, which undermines the factory's discipline and overall improvement.

We must make an example of him and give him a good makeover.

Chapter 198 Thanking Qin Huairu, Yang Jianguo is a good match (Bonus Chapter)

Nobody knows anything about what Xu Damao said to that old lady in the end.

Everyone was busy with work, and Xu Damao chased away the rest.

But Old Man Yan, the stingy old man, said before leaving, "We'll have a big meeting tonight to discuss Xu Damao's moral depravity!"

This time, Uncle San and Aunt Liu also agreed to hold a meeting.

He ruined a young woman's body and also damaged her reputation.

Don't want to take responsibility?

Then, this problem is serious.

Hearing that a major conference was about to be held, Uncle Er walked out shakily.

My back straightened unconsciously, and even my legs felt more agile.

After everyone left, Xu Damao pulled the old woman into the house...

Seeing the colors on the door, Xu Damao turned around and came back.

“Let’s talk outside, ma’am, please come with me.”

"What are you doing, Xu Damao? Explain yourself clearly. I'm telling you, you have to take responsibility for this."

"I'll take responsibility."

"Let's go outside and talk about it in detail, slowly..."

The girl who was squatting there crying followed after him, wiping away her tears.

There's going to be a big meeting in the compound. Yang Jianguo didn't know about it, but someone who left late knew!

During the lunch break, Qin Huairu told him, "Master, there's going to be a big meeting tonight to criticize Xu Damao..."

Yang Jianguo had no objection to criticizing anyone.

There was one thing he cared about, and Yingzi was determined to join in the fun.

The conference required each family to send one person.

She can't get away from her work, so she has to take care of things at home.

Even with Yingzi's mother there, Yang Jianguo was still not entirely at ease.

After all, to the residents of the compound, Yingzi's mother was an outsider.

Seeing the worry in his expression, Qin Huairu took the initiative to say, "Master, I would like to ask for a leave of absence?"

Yang Jianguo looked at her in surprise. "Are you asking for leave?"

Qin Huairu has never been late or left early when he comes to the workshop.

He's always the one who arrives early and leaves late.

Why do I suddenly need to take the day off? Is something wrong at home?

“There’s a big meeting in the courtyard, and my family has to send people out too, you know my mother-in-law.”

Qin Huairu's excuse seems plausible.

But upon closer reflection, her behavior during this period, as well as the change in Granny Jia, all contributed to this.

I knew that wasn't the case, and then I thought back to what I had done before...

Okay, I understand.

"Okay, you can go home after work." Yang Jianguo nodded in agreement.

Then, looking at Qin Huairu, he said, "Thank you."

One thing at a time. It's true that I am her master, but she doesn't have to take care of my wife.

Qin Huairu realized her worries and wanted to go back as soon as possible to protect Yingzi.

Yang Jianguo should thank the person. No one, no matter when or where, should take someone's kindness for granted.

I always felt that person's mindset had become unsteady without them realizing it.

Finally, it's time to eat the pills!

Halfway through the afternoon, Yang Jianguo was called away by the factory manager.

It's nothing special, there's been a problem at the school, and I'm looking for him to discuss solutions.

"The situation at No. 6 Middle School is more complicated than we imagined."

"In this office, there are only seven people in total. Six of them are leaders because they have connections, and there is only one person who does the work."

"The key is that the people behind them are not to be trifled with."

"If we really have to close down, it will be difficult for our school to reopen."

Director Yang looked at the factory manager and explained the situation to him.

Then, glancing at Yang Jianguo sitting to the side, he asked, "Director Yang, what are your thoughts?"

Yang Jianguo raised his eyelids, sensing that he was hostile towards him.

This hostility likely stems from jealousy and the power at hand.

It was supposed to be administrative work, and I was an outsider who wasn't even a cadre, but Director Yang called me in to offer advice.

It's like Yang Jianguo was working there, and the factory sent someone from the office to teach him how to do things.

If it were him, he would also dislike that person.

There's no need to even think about it...
