At noon that day, no one knew what Xu Damao's family and Lou Xiao'e's family discussed.
However, in the afternoon, when they saw Lou Guanshan come out with his wife and daughter Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao's family smiling at them, everyone knew that this matter was probably successful.
If it wasn't for this rich relative, how could Xu Damao's family be so happy?
Actually, there was no need for everyone to guess. With Xu Damao's personality, if there was such a good thing, he would definitely spread it everywhere.
The first to "know" the news was naturally Silly Pillar.
"Silly Zhu, this bro's marriage has already been confirmed. It will be at the end of this year, so I specially came over to tell you that you have to work hard too.”
"I say, Xu Damao, I didn't hit you just now. Did you think that I didn't dare to hit you? If you continue to act like this, don't blame me for not having eyes and hitting your face with my fist.”
Silly Zhu, who was angry, could only use his fists to threaten Xu Damao.
"Alright, alright, alright. This bro is happy today, so I won't argue with you. Just wait for my wedding wine. Remember to come when the time comes.”
After saying this, Xu Damao slipped away. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, Silly Zhu would really find trouble with him.
Actually, it wasn't that there weren't any people who introduced a partner to Silly Zhu in the past few years, but he didn't know where he got his confidence from. He even had to pay attention to looks and knowledge. He wouldn't even take a fancy to ordinary girls.
This was especially true when it came to looks. Although he did not say it explicitly, in his heart, he had always treated Qin Huairu's appearance as a template for him to find a partner. If he wanted to meet both of these conditions at the same time, there would naturally be very few people.
Even if there was a girl with good looks and knowledge, he had to be liked by others.
With Silly Zhu's appearance, he was clearly only in his twenties, but to outsiders, he looked like he was in his thirties.
Also, his job and income were only considered acceptable among the younger generation in this courtyard house. If it was really outside, there were many workers who earned more than him.
To put it bluntly, Silly Zhu was like a frog at the bottom of a well. All he could think about was the factory kitchen and this courtyard.
…………
The matter of Xu Damao's successful blind date passed very quickly. Other than a few aunties in the quad who had nothing to do all day and occasionally chatted with each other, the others had long been put to the back of their minds.
The one who was most affected was naturally Silly Pillar.
She did not know if it was because she had really been provoked by Xu Damao, but in the following period of time, Silly Zhu's care for Qin Huiru became bolder. In the past, she was still slightly worried about the impact, but now, it could be said that she was brazen.
After experiencing the benefits of being taken care of, Qin Huairu was naturally happy to accept it. After all, she was the one who benefited. As for what others said, she did not care.
The consequences of their actions soon came.
Since Silly Zhu and Qin Huairu dared to do it, others would naturally dare to say it. Especially with Xu Damao's hard work in publicity, in just half a month, everyone knew about Silly Zhu and Qin Huairu's relationship.
There was no wall in the world that did not leak. There were still many people working in the rolling mill in the courtyard.
As these people told the news to their families, in a few days, the people in the courtyard looked at Jia Zhangshi and his son differently.
Especially when everyone looked at Jia Dongxu, not only did they look at him with pity, but they also kept looking above his head.
The first time he was looked at, Jia Dongxu thought there was something on his head, but after Jia Zhangshi looked at it, she said there was nothing, which made him very puzzled.
But when the second auntie looked at his head, Jia Dongxu finally couldn't help but ask.
"Aunt Liu, is there something dirty on my head? Why are you all looking over here?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I was just looking around. You don't have to take it too seriously.”
After saying that, he left in a hurry. Jia Dongxu realized that something was wrong and quickly called Jia Zhangshi over.
"Mom, these aunties must know something about our family today. Otherwise, why would they keep looking at us? Find an opportunity to go out and ask around.”
If Jia Dongxu hadn't said it, Jia Zhangshi wouldn't have felt anything. But since her son had said it, she naturally had to take action. In addition, she was a suspicious person, so she nodded and agreed to her son.
"Don't worry, Dongxu. Before today, I'll definitely find out for you. These old ladies in the courtyard still want to play tricks in front of me.”
At this time, it was almost time to make lunch, so Jia Zhangshi pretended to go out to buy vegetables. When she passed by the front yard, she saw a few aunties talking to Third Aunt. After walking around outside, she quietly came back.
These people were in the front yard, so Jia Zhang-shi didn't need to go in. She could hear them by leaning against the door.
As soon as she chose her seat, Jia Zhang-shi heard the voice of an auntie.
"Humph, you people still want to play tricks under my Jia Zhang-shi's eyes. You underestimate me too much. As long as I want to know the big and small things in this courtyard, which of you can hide it from me?”
Jia Zhang-shi was still feeling proud of herself, but the content of what he said next stunned her.
"Big Three, did your Xie Cheng tell you about what happened in the factory?”
"What do you mean?"
Yan Jiecheng had naturally told his family about Silly Zhu and Qin Huairu. However, the moment he said it, Third Uncle had suppressed it. He had even explicitly forbidden anyone from talking about this in the quad. He had even specially instructed Third Aunt to do so, afraid that she would spill the beans.
Therefore, Mrs. Liu's sudden question really stumped Third Aunt. Her reaction was slightly slower.
"It seems that they didn't say anything. It's just that the matter between Silly Zhu and the Jia family's daughter-in-law has spread all over the factory. It's said that Silly Zhu has taken a fancy to the Jia family's daughter-in-law and has seen Tian 'er's flattery.”
As if afraid that someone else would say it first, Aunt Liu immediately told her about Silly Zhu and Qin Huairu just as Aunt Lu revealed a puzzled look.
"There's such a thing? That's impossible. Qin Huairu has a husband and a child. How could she do such a thing? I don't believe it.”
No matter how one put it, women were born actors. With Third Aunt's ability to react on the spot and her vivid lines, she could definitely compete with Qin Huairu.
"Hey, do you think I'll lie to you about this? My son told me about this personally. Every time Qin Huairu went to get food, Silly Zhu would give her special care. Not only did she have more food than others, but she also picked bigger steamed buns for her.”
"This is just the beginning. Now, it has already developed to the point of saving dishes for Qin Huairu. Many of them are leftovers from the leaders of the rolling mill.”
"Do you think Silly Zhu would do this if these two people were really not related?”
As if to prove her words, Mrs. Liu briefly explained the cause and effect of the matter. This time, the other aunties, including Third Aunt, somewhat believed her.
"Based on what you've said, it's really possible. But what's this Silly Zhu thinking? He's an unmarried young man. Why doesn't he think about finding a wife seriously? Why does he keep thinking about Qin Huairu?”
" Hey, Third Aunt, you don't understand. Married people are more…"
She was already a woman in her twenties. What was there that she did not dare to say? As she spoke, the topic changed.
Jia Zhang-shi had heard everything from the beginning to the end. It was just that there was no one else beside her at this moment. Otherwise, when they saw her dark face, they would think that she had some serious illness.
If one or two aunties dared to say this, Jia Zhangshi would immediately go up and scratch her face. But there were many of them.
With Jia Zhang-shi's character of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, she would not be foolish enough to challenge the other party's group of people alone.
Not only would she not be able to take advantage of them, she might even get injured. After all, this group of aunties were not to be trifled with. In terms of their ability to curse and make a scene, they were not inferior to her, Jia Zhangshi. It was just that they were usually more restrained.
However, if she couldn't control the mouths of this bunch of old ladies, how could she, Jia Zhangshi, not control Qin Huairu? Tonight, he would teach them a lesson, especially this single girl, Shazhu.
With an idea in mind, Jia Zhangshi didn't stay outside. She coughed lightly and then went into the courtyard. She didn't say hello to Third Aunt and the others, and walked back to her house with a black face.
Seeing Jia Zhangshi like this, Third Aunt and the others also knew that Jia Zhangshi must have heard their conversation, but they didn't know how much she had heard.
It seemed that there would be a lot of fun to watch tonight.
