Chapter 217: Thinking about the issue of retirement

Looking at Xu Damao in front of them and hearing his earth-shattering words, Lou Xiao'e and her family all showed shocked expressions, as if they were looking at a stranger.

"Xu Damao, tell me again! You want to divorce me?"

"Yes! I can't stand life without children!

After the divorce, I suggest you go to the hospital for a checkup. Maybe your illness can be cured!"

"Asshole! Xu Damao, divorce me if you want!"
Maybe the problem lies between us? "

Ignoring Lou Xiao'e's hysteria, Xu Damao believed that Lou Xiao'e must be infertile, and went directly to the street office with the angry Lou Xiao'e to get a divorce.

After leaving the neighborhood office, Xu Damao was so happy holding the divorce certificate that he wanted to go back immediately and spend the wedding night with Qin Jingru.

"Lou Xiao'e, take your things out of my house before dark!"

"Hmph! Villain! I feel sick if I say one more word to you now!"

"you"

Lou Xiao'e returned to the courtyard where she had lived for more than four years and went to Xu Damao's house in the backyard to pack her things. Soon, the news of Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e's divorce spread in the courtyard.

Amid the pointing and gossip of her neighbors in the courtyard, Lou Xiao'e took her things and left this place that made her sad and disgusted.

Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e's divorce meant that Qin Jingru agreed to marry Xu Damao. Su Ning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the news.

Because it feels really bad to be entangled by others, it would be really nice to get rid of the trouble of Qin Jingru. I don’t want to be disgusted by the Qin sisters for no reason.

Suning no longer paid attention to the matter of the Siheyuan, but he guessed that Lou Xiao'e and the Lou family would definitely not give up and might still stay in Beijing.

Unwilling to see Lou Xiao'e tied up, Suning wrote on a piece of paper with his left hand, tied it to a stone, and threw it in through the window of Lou's house in the dark.

A loud "bang" broke the gloomy atmosphere in the Lou family. They looked toward the window in fear and saw broken glass.

"Some kid threw rocks and broke our windows!

You're a wild child born of a mother but never raised by her!" Lou's mother immediately started cursing.

Although Su Ning was far away from the Lou family, he could still hear Lou's mother cursing. He suddenly felt so angry that he wanted to slap himself.

"It's what I deserve! I'm such a jerk!"

Soon, Lou's father, who was standing by, saw the stone by the window and also saw the note tied to the stone. He was moved and stopped Lou's mother.

"Stop cursing! Let's find out the situation first!"

After hearing Father Lou's words, Mother Lou finally calmed down and noticed the note. "This is..."

"Shut up!"

Father Lou once again stopped Mother Lou from making a fuss, opened the note and read it, then his face suddenly changed, "Xu Damao reported it, leave immediately!"

"Old Lou, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?" Lou's mother noticed that Lou's father's face suddenly changed after seeing the note, and asked with some concern.

"Xu Damao is going to report us. We need to leave here quickly."

"Oh no?

It is said that a husband and wife are bound by a hundred days of grace after being married for a day. Xu Damao shouldn’t be so heartless, right?
Lao Lou, could it be that you made a mistake?"

"That's just a woman's opinion! Xu Damao and the Xu family are both wolves, they won't let us off easily!"

"Ah? Old Lou, who do you think tipped us off?"

"Silly woman, pack your things! Stop worrying about this!"

"Oh! Oh! I'll clean it up right away!"

"Xiao'e, go and clean up quickly!

I don’t want any clothes or anything!

Just bring some important belongings with you!"

"Okay, I get it now!"

Anyway, he had already meddled in other people's business and warned the Lou family. As for whether they would leave or not, that was not Suning's concern.

Suning felt that there was no fun in returning to his boring life. Sure enough, many people came to the steel mill recently to ask Suning to cook, which made Suning's boring life gradually busy.

Despite being busy, Suning still went to the big leader's house to cook at a fixed time. With his rich experience in the future and the other five worlds, after spending time together for a few times, the big leader saw Suning's value, and unknowingly, the relationship between Suning and the big leader became closer.

"Zhu Zi, your cooking skills are so good, have you ever thought about preparing for a state banquet?" "Huh? The procedures for a state banquet are too complicated, and I don't like being restricted, so I'd rather be free for now."

"Hmm! Zhuzi, what you're thinking about makes sense!
There are a lot of rules at the state banquet, it's really troublesome!"

"Zhu Zi, I have a friend who used to run a restaurant in Beijing.

Although it’s not as famous as the century-old shops in Fengzeyuan, it’s still one of the best in Beijing.”

"It was not until 1955, when the public-private partnership reform began, that he became the private manager of the restaurant.

Recently he wanted to move his family to the south, so he planned to dispose of his property in the capital!

Zhuzi, are you interested?"

"Big boss, you think too highly of me!
I’m just an ordinary cook, but my cooking skills are pretty good!
But I can’t come up with so much money!
To acquire the restaurant's shares, it would cost at least several thousand dollars, right?"

"Yes! That's right! My friend wants ten thousand!"

"Oh my God! So much money! I can't even imagine it!"

There is indeed a lot of gold in Suning's storage space, but this kind of money of unknown origin is his "death warrant", and he will definitely not be foolish enough to take it out.

"Haha, Zhuzi, please listen to me first.

When the public and private sectors were first merged, the restaurant's area was more than doubled.

My friend wanted to own the restaurant's property and didn't care too much about the restaurant's shares, so he only had 5% of the restaurant's shares.

In addition, there is the property rights of the restaurant and a courtyard with two entrances."

"Oh? No wonder!

Ten thousand yuan is quite appropriate!

But, sir, I really can’t come up with such a large sum of money.”

"Haha, I know all that!
If you really want to take over, I can help you with all the legal procedures and lend you 10,000 yuan."

"Boss, aren't you worried that I won't be able to pay back the money?

You know, ten thousand yuan is not a small amount!"

"Anyway, this money is for our retirement.

If you can't pay it back, then you can just take care of our retirement!"

"Ah? Big boss, are you serious?"

"Zhu Zi, our own children are not around us all the time because of work.

It seems like there’s no way they can help us with our retirement!”

"Zhu Zi, we also understand your situation!

My mother died early and my father was also in Baoding, so I had almost no burden.

After spending so much time together, my wife and I are very satisfied with you."

Hearing the boss say this, Suning realized that he was not joking anymore. Thinking that the boss was also considering the issue of retirement, he suddenly felt helpless.

Yi Zhonghai, the eldest uncle in the courtyard, has been trying to take control of Suning for the sake of his own retirement. However, Yi Zhonghai does not have the courage of a big leader to directly use his own savings to help Suning.

Originally, what he wanted most was to go to Hong Kong, but with his younger sister He Yushui's concerns, Suning has been struggling with his future development.

If you take over a restaurant in the capital and become its private manager, you can take over the contract when the policy changes, and the policy may even be returned to you.

"Big leader, I understand what you mean!
I will still return this money to you, and I am willing to take care of your elders' retirement needs!"

"Good! Good! Great!

Zhuzi, don’t call me big boss anymore!

Just call us uncle and aunt!" The big boss and his wife looked at each other in surprise.

"Uncle, aunt!"

"Ugh!"

Looking at Su Ning in front of them, the big boss and his wife became more and more satisfied. Although he was a single cook, he did not have any of the problems of a cook. The experience and steadiness he usually showed made the big boss satisfied from the bottom of his heart. Seeing that he was willing to help them in their old age, the big boss and his wife were really surprised.
