Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 97 Poor Man

In the front yard, the third aunt looked at everyone talking enthusiastically. As if her prestige as the third aunt was about to be taken away, she quickly coughed and diverted everyone's attention.

A group of old women and young wives looked over, and then the third aunt cleared her throat, "You don't need to say more. My old man said that when it comes to the richness of the family, I guess even the grandpa's family can't compare to Xu Damao's family."

Everyone was convinced when they heard what the third uncle said.

After all, the third uncle is a well-known calculation expert. He usually calculates this and that at home. He knows everything about who's family and what's going on in the compound.

As for why it was the Xu family, everyone had a vague guess. Old Xu must have saved money since he worked as a projectionist. Secondly, Xu Damao found a rich wife. How could his life be worse?

"What about making money?"

Liu's wife asked quickly.

When the third aunt saw everyone looking over her, she felt a sense of pride deep in her heart, "My old man has calculated that the most profitable person in our compound is the uncle."

"But I am getting older, and Yang Xiaotao is only nineteen this year, which means he is twenty years old. He has worked for less than two years. He is now a third-level fitter. It is hard to say where he will go in the future."

"His family is in a situation like that. They spent all their money for medical treatment, including compensation. It's really stupid to say that this child is stupid. But who doesn't want a son like this? We will all grow old one day."

Everyone was thinking about it. The third aunt continued.

"It didn't take long to build a home. For this ability, among the younger generation in this alley, no one is better than him."

"So, Yang Xiaotao's current salary can rank third, but with his potential, it's hard to say in a few years. Maybe he will be ranked first."

The third aunt repeated what the third uncle said. Of course, she would not talk about what the third uncle told her about making friends with Yang Xiaotao.

It's just that she thinks the old man's idea is a bit naive. Since the last incident, Yang Xiaotao has made it clear that he should live behind closed doors, and everyone should keep in touch with each other.

If he wants to ease the relationship, it depends on whether Yang Xiaotao wants to or not.

"so smart?"

An old woman on the side asked in surprise, and then said to herself, "My cousin also has a daughter. She is eighteen years old. I think I can ask."

After the words fell, several people with relatives and children at home were thinking in their hearts, if nothing else, if this thing is really going to happen, and they will become relatives in the future, then Yang Xiaotao will not be allowed to help?

With his current life, who wouldn't be envious of him?

The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.

At this moment, even the third aunt was thinking about whether there was a suitable candidate among her relatives.

"Well, let me tell you, this Yang Xiaotao is also in bad luck."

The young daughter-in-law of the Liu family on the side sighed and drew everyone's attention.

Without waiting for anyone to speak, he continued, "In order to treat my father, I spent all my money and let Jia Dongxu get a free advantage."

"you do not say."

After hearing this, the Shen family's daughter-in-law immediately answered, and then said mockingly, "This Jia family is too unauthentic."

"It was obviously the Yang family who found the person first. He has been living there for two months, so he just hired him with money. It's really shameless."

"It's not like you don't know that old lady from the Jia family is shameless. Why are you talking about this? Just don't care about our business anyway."

"That is."

The Liu family's daughter-in-law rolled her eyes, "Do you think Qin Huairu will regret it?"

Everyone was silent for a while.

"I guess I regret it. Haha."

The little daughter-in-law of the Liu family asked and answered questions for herself, and everyone laughed in an instant.

There is no comparison between Jia Dongxu and Yang Xiaotao.

In terms of appearance, Jia Dongxu is better than the mature Sha Zhu, but Sha Zhu still has a lot of strength.

Yang Xiaotao, on the other hand, is 1.78 meters tall, good-looking and energetic. Because he studies, he has the temperament of a scholar.

There is no comparison between the two.

In terms of earning money, Yang Xiaotao, a third-level fitter, now earns 47.5 yuan a month, while Jia Dongxu is still a first-level worker, earning 27.5 yuan a month. There is a difference of 20 yuan.

"I have to say that Qin Huairu has no vision. For such a small amount of gift money, she just gave up such a good man and found a naughty boy. If she hadn't been pregnant now, she would have regretted the divorce."

A bold woman said this, and she laughed first.

"Isn't that right? The Jia family is still saying that Yang Xiaotao is shameless. I think their family is the most shameless. They ask us to help their family on weekdays. How can they have the shame to say that?"

"That's right, that's right, if Qin Huairu enters this house, he has entered the wolf's den. Poor handsome appearance, he has been blind all his life."

"Yang Xiaotao is also very powerful. You didn't notice those people you beat up last time. You just didn't dare to fight back. That was so miserable."

"Do they dare to resist? It doesn't matter what they are doing, that is, Yang Xiaotao doesn't care about them. If he dares to ruin a person's reputation in the countryside and reports him, it would be strange if you don't let your house be burned down."

"Isn't it? Yang Xiaotao used to be too easy to bully."

"Is he so easy to bully? Look at who dares to mess with him in the courtyard now? Even Silly Zhu, that bastard, was beaten. He didn't even dare to fart."

Several people were talking more and more enthusiastically. Lou Xiao'e listened and gradually frowned.

This was completely different from what she knew.

Didn't Yang Xiaotao cause trouble at the Jia family's wedding?

Is there any hidden secret?

Why didn't his father tell him about this?

Enduring the doubts in her heart, Lou Xiao'e leaned her head back and continued listening.

The third aunt on the side couldn't get in her words again, and her words were interrupted several times. The child in her belly felt bulging with anger. As soon as she thought about it, she immediately exploded the big bomb, which also made this group of long-haired and short-sighted people. Ladies, see the world.

"Hmph, what do you know? Qin Huairu is not the only one who is pitiful in this yard!"

As soon as he said this, everyone looked over.

"Third aunt, what do you mean by this?"

"Is there anyone more pitiful than Qin Huairu?"

The Liu family's daughter-in-law quickly stepped into the role of admiration. The third aunt immediately raised her head and said slowly, "Of course!"

"Besides, you will never expect this person!"

After hearing this, a group of old women knew that there was something inside that was going to be revealed, so they quickly moved forward and listened carefully.

The third aunt looked around and saw no one else. Besides, the money was spent here, so she couldn't help but say nothing.

"This person is Lou Xiao'e!"

"What?"

"How could it be her?"

"It's impossible. Lou Xiao'e is the daughter-in-law of Xu Damao's family. How could she be related to Yang Xiaotao?"

The crowd suddenly started making noise like chickens and ducks.

In the back corner, Lou Xiao'e's heart was pounding and her breathing was a little difficult.

Why did it involve her?

Feeling a little panicked, I quickly continued listening.

"Don't make trouble, listen to me."

The third aunt stopped everyone's discussion and lowered her voice again.

"Our family met the third aunt from the street last time, guess what."

"Speaking of this matter, this third aunt is very angry. The last time she came to our compound was to marry Yang Xiaotao."

"Guess who Yang Xiaotao fell in love with?"

"It can't be Lou Xiao'e."

The little daughter-in-law of the Liu family is online.

"Yes, that's her!"

"And the two of them have met."

"I heard from Third Aunt that there is a high probability that this marriage will be successful, but Xu Damao came out on the way and disturbed the marriage. She and she were also scolded by Director Wang of the street office."

After everyone heard about this, they immediately became interested.

The person next to him seemed to have thought of something.

"Let me tell you, in the past two days, Yang Xiaotao was cleaning up the house, shopping, and heard about what he was going to buy. I was puzzled. It turned out that he was preparing to get married."

Speaking of this, someone else nodded, "Yes, Yang Xiaotao looked like good things were coming in those days."

"It's a pity that Xu Damao had his beard cut off."

"Yang Xiaotao is too soft. This wife has been cut off and has no masculinity."

"Not manly yet? Lao Xu has been slapped twice, how dare your man?"

A few people pushed and pushed each other, then brought the topic back.

"Who says it's not the case? Xu Damao is lucky to have found such a wife. Otherwise, if he is such a black-hearted guy, whose daughter can marry him?"

Everyone began to attack Xu Damao again. The main reason was that Xu Damao had done many bad things in recent years. He was also petty and vindictive. He was also vicious in some things and even bullied children.

There is no popularity in this compound.

"Tch, you really think Xu Damao is lucky. Then you think highly of Xu Damao."

The third aunt said and drew everyone's attention over again.

"Third aunt, please stop hiding it and talk about it quickly."

"That's right, our hospital is well versed in information about your family and has a thorough understanding of things. Tell us quickly."

The third aunt smiled and narrowed her eyes, and said quickly, "Okay, okay, I told you, but don't tell it."

"I analyzed that hole in my family, do you remember?"

"That time when Yang Xiaotao was examined by the security department? Was it Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong's fault?"

"Why did the two of them dare not call the police after they were arrested and beaten, let alone fight back? The factory even compensated Yang Xiaotao 100 yuan?"

"Let me tell you, this is all Xu Damao's fault."

"He paid people to publicize bad things about Yang Xiaotao in the steel rolling mill. He spread the word everywhere. Do you think that the Lou family is the boss of the steel rolling mill? Why don't they ask about it?"

"If the Lou family finds out about this, it will definitely not happen."

When the third aunt said this, the Liu family's daughter-in-law seemed to realize, "This Xu Damao is too bad, and this method is too ruthless."

"Tch, what's the matter? My old man said it. I guess Xu Damao was the one who instigated the second uncle's report."

"Ah? No way, this second uncle can't be so stupid."

"Why not? As long as he can be an official, what can't he do?"

"Oh my God, this Xu Damao is so scary. Oh, our family must stay away from him in the future."

When the third aunt saw this, she looked envious and said disdainfully.

"Scary? Huh, what's this!"

"Xu Damao spent less than a hundred yuan, but he married a rich wife. This kind of business can make a lot of money."

Speaking of this, the third aunt thought of her son Yan Jiecheng and felt a little regretful. If she could have seized the opportunity and married Lou Xiao'e, the two of them could have lived a comfortable life.

Unfortunately, it was too late to start.

Everyone was thoughtful after hearing this, and the Liu family's daughter-in-law even whispered, "Then Lou Xiao'e is really stupid."

One sentence spoke everyone's thoughts, but they didn't expect that the owner of the words was right behind them.

At this moment, Lou Xiao'e just felt like the world was spinning.

"Fool, am I a fool?"

"So I'm more pitiful than Qin Huairu?"

When Lou Xiao'e heard other people's comments about her, her heart was cut like a knife, and she was so painful that she couldn't breathe.

At first, she found it funny when she heard what these people said, because what she investigated at home and what she learned from Xu Damao, Qin Huairu, etc. after her marriage were all consistent with what she knew.

But now, things seem to have taken a turn.

She also doubts what these people say, but there is no smoke without fire. Since these people can say it, it must be based on facts.

It wasn't that she had any thoughts about Yang Xiaotao. Since she was married to Xu Damao, she was naturally a member of the Xu family and she had to think about Xu Damao at all times.

But what made her feel uncomfortable was that she felt like a fool. She was cheated and counted money, and was looked upon as a fool by others.

For a moment, the hidden figure in Lou Xiao'e's mind gradually became clear, and she could no longer sit still.
