Chapter 32 Return the donation!
Chapter 32 Return the donation!
When Jia Dongming looked at Lou Xiao'e with red eyes, he thought of Lou Xiao'e's fate in the plot.
Although Jia Dongming is a member of the Jia family, he knows clearly that the kindest person in this courtyard is Lou Xiaoe, who has red eyes in front of him.
Lou Xiao'e, daughter of capitalist Lou Bancheng, had to marry Xu Damao, son of Lou's servant, because of her family background. Unfortunately, before the marriage, Lou Zhenhua was anxious to find a good background for Lou Xiao'e and did not ask anyone to investigate Xu Damao, which directly pushed Lou Xiao'e into the fire pit and also laid the groundwork for his escape to Hong Kong.
After getting married, Xu Damao took the opportunity of showing movies in the countryside to hang out with widows in the village. He even often stole Lou Xiao'e's dowry and went out to have fun. Lou Xiao'e was kept in the dark. Later, because Xu Damao was infertile, she was branded as a hen that doesn't lay eggs.
Because they had no children for a long time, Xu Damao often beat Lou Xiao'e, and Lou Xiao'e thought that she really could not have children, so she suffered a lot.
Because of the storm, Xu Damao found an excuse to divorce Lou Xiao'e in order to cut off his relationship with the Lou family. He even reported the Lou family, which led to Lou Xiao'e's parents' home being raided and her parents being imprisoned.
Later, under the persuasion of the deaf old lady, Sha Zhu sought help from the senior leader and saved Lou Xiao'e's parents. Lou Xiao'e was grateful for Sha Zhu's help, and with the help of the deaf old lady behind the scenes, Sha Zhu was transformed from a big boy into a real man on the eve of Lou Xiao'e's departure from the old city.
After the reform and opening up, Lou Xiao'e wanted to prove that she was not a hen that couldn't lay eggs, and that the real infertile person was Xu Damao. She also wanted to use the child to tie Sha Zhu down and make him go to Hong Kong to live with her, so she took the child back to the courtyard.
But at this time, Sha Zhu had already been poisoned by Qin Huairu, and with Yi Zhonghai's deliberate obstruction, Lou Xiao'e was ultimately unable to get together with the fool.
Seeing that Sha Zhu was not living a happy life, Lou Xiao'e funded a restaurant for Sha Zhu. However, she was discovered by Qin Huairu, who brought her two daughters, started to make a scene and cry. Finally, she brought everyone in the hospital, and lay on top of Lou Xiao'e, sucking her blood.
Yi Zhonghai, who was sitting at the square table, saw Xu Damao and Lou Xiaoe quarreling in public, and immediately showed dissatisfaction on his face. He reminded Xu Damao and Lou Xiaoe in a very serious tone: "Xu Damao! Lou Xiaoe! The whole-institute meeting held in our hospital today is for Jia Dongming, Section Chief Jia, to move into our compound and meet his mother and son with Jia's old sister-in-law."
"If you two want to quarrel, you can wait until you get home and quarrel behind closed doors. Now, sit down and we will prepare for the meeting."
The reason why Xu Damao dared to scold Lou Xiao'e as a hen that couldn't lay eggs in front of everyone in the hospital was entirely because of his male chauvinism, and as a result, he ignored Jia Dongming who was sitting next to him.
After hearing Yi Zhonghai say that today's meeting was held for Jia Dongming, Xu Damao naturally did not dare to continue making trouble. He said to Lou Xiao'e in a very tough tone: "Lou Xiao'e! For the sake of Section Chief Jia, I will not argue with you today."
When Xu Damao said this, a flattering smile immediately appeared on his face. He introduced himself to Jia Dongming in a very respectful tone: "Chief Jia! Hello! I am Xu Damao who lives in the backyard. I am the projectionist of our steel mill. It is my honor to be your neighbor."
When Jia Dongming heard what Xu Damao said and saw Xu Damao's fawning expression, he stood up from his chair and greeted Xu Damao humbly, "Hello! Comrade Xu Damao! Nice to meet you!" Seeing Jia Dongming's approachable attitude, Xu Damao felt that Jia Dongming was a very easy-going leader. In order to get closer to Jia Dongming, Xu Damao quickly said to Jia Dongming, "Chief Jia! To welcome you to move into our compound, I'll host you tomorrow night. Please come to my house for a couple of drinks."
Facing Xu Damao's invitation, Jia Dongming originally wanted to refuse, but thinking that Xu Damao might be of some use in the future, Jia Dongming smiled and said, "Okay! Sorry to bother you then!"
Xu Damao was so happy to see Jia Dongming accept his request that he immediately said to Jia Dongming, "Chief Jia! Now we have a deal!"
Liu Haizhong, who was sitting at the square table, saw Jia Dongming accept Xu Damao's invitation and secretly regretted in his heart why he didn't think of this and invite Jia Dongming to dinner, and then take the opportunity to get closer to Xu Damao.
Just when Liu Haizhong was regretting this, Yi Zhonghai on the side suddenly said, "Okay! Now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting!"
Liu Haizhong recovered from his regret after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said. In order to get closer to Jia Dongming, Liu Haizhong immediately took the lead and said, "Dear neighbors in the courtyard, I believe you must have heard that a new resident moved into our courtyard yesterday. He is the new security chief of the steel rolling mill, Comrade Jia Dongming!"
"Now please give a warm round of applause to welcome our Section Chief Jia!" When Liu Haizhong said this, he immediately applauded enthusiastically.
The residents in the courtyard had already learned from the third aunt this morning that Jia Dongming planned to return all the money that everyone had given to Jia Jiajuan over the years, so the residents in the courtyard were naturally very enthusiastic about Jia Dongming.
The residents present, upon hearing Liu Haizhong's words and seeing the basket of eggs in front of Jia Dongming, all applauded happily.
After hearing what Liu Haizhong said, Jia Dongming stood up from his chair and said to all the residents in the courtyard: "Dear neighbors! Hello everyone! I am Jia Dongming, the eldest brother of the Jia family who went missing. On behalf of our Jia family, I would like to thank all the neighbors for their help over the years."
Jia Dongming paused for a moment and continued, "I know that this year has been difficult for everyone, so I decided to return all the money you have donated to our Jia family over the years. In addition, to thank everyone, we will give each family five eggs."
Jia Dongming said this, took out a stack of money from his pocket, picked up the eggs on the ground, walked to the square table, and said to the three uncles with a smile: "Uncles! This is the money we want to return to everyone. In addition, there are these eggs. Please help me distribute them to everyone."
When Yan Bugui saw the money and eggs Jia Dongming put on the table, his eyes gleamed. Without waiting for Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong to speak, he immediately smiled and promised Jia Dongming: "Chief Jia! Please rest assured, we promise to return all the money donated by everyone, not a cent less."
