All Heavens Film and Television started from Joyful Qiao Weidong since childhood

Chapter 2901 Silly E, how can you be so shameless?
Yi Zhonghai, the "godson," was taken away.

"Godson" Sha Zhu is still being held in the security department.

This usually submissive old woman suddenly lost her will. She said that even if she had her own opinions, she probably wouldn't want to get involved in this mess. She's had enough of being a maid and servant for so many years!
That is to say, she dared not disobey her husband Yi Zhonghai, otherwise who would be willing to serve this dead old woman?
There's so much to do all day long. She's always craving this or that, and her clothes have to be washed frequently. Plus, this deaf old lady is usually very sharp-tongued and picky, always acting like she's entitled to everything, as if someone owes her something.

So the older woman pretended to be so heartbroken that she had already "fainted" from crying.

And then... that's when things get really awkward.

The deaf old woman, who died with her eyes wide open, lay in the house completely unattended.

The backyard was packed with people. Most Chinese people love to watch a spectacle, so of course they chased all their children away, since the deaf old lady who choked to death looked particularly awful.

There was a lively discussion with everyone offering their opinions.

"Oh dear, this old lady looks like she died with her eyes wide open. Could it be that Yi Zhonghai really did something to her?"

"Don't talk nonsense, that old man is not like that at all!" Qin Huairu came out to make her presence known, after all, Yi Zhonghai had helped her a lot in the past.

Lou Xiao'e, who had just settled Aunt Yi in, came over and chimed in, "Sister Qin is right, that old man isn't like that at all. Stop making wild guesses!"

"Hey Lou Xiao'e, you're not even one of our workers, what right do you have to talk nonsense?" Some people were immediately indignant. How dare a pampered young lady speak ill of us workers? This is simply outrageous!

"You..." Lou Xiao'e only realized at this moment that if she got divorced, she would have no say at all.

I couldn't help but look at someone.

But Xu Damao just touched his nose and turned to chat with Yan Jiecheng next to him.

He naturally understood what Lou Xiao'e meant, but he should give up on the idea of ​​getting involved in that old woman's funeral arrangements. He wasn't about to be a saint and bother with such trivial matters.

This infuriated Lou Xiao'e; her eyes flashed with anger, her lips were downturned, and her brows were furrowed, clearly showing that she was extremely angry.

That heartless bastard!
But now her deaf grandmother, who had been so good to her, was lying there. Putting everything else aside, the funeral arrangements had to be taken care of. However, Lou Xiao'e, a pampered young lady who had never lifted a finger, had absolutely no idea what to do at this moment.

There was nothing I could do but look to the side.

"Second Uncle, you..."

"Guangfu, did your mom just call me home because she had something to do?" When Liu Haizhong encountered trouble, his first thought was to quickly hide to the side. This was probably a habit he had developed in his early years, since in those days, meddling in other people's business could really get you killed.

He swaggered home with his two sons, clearly not wanting to care about the deaf old lady's funeral arrangements.

Xu Damao shook his head when he saw this. "With such a lack of responsibility, you want to be an official?"
All their petty schemes were misused.

If you show some responsibility at this time, you're guaranteed to rise to a high position, but when trouble comes, you run away in the blink of an eye?

"Third Uncle~" Lou Xiao'e's face gradually drooped, her eyes filled with helplessness and sorrow, and tears silently slid down her cheeks.

"Xiao'e, this matter is probably not so easy. After all, the police station hasn't determined exactly how the old lady died, so in my opinion, we still need to contact the neighborhood committee!"

Although Yan Bugui didn't want to get involved, he spoke quite frankly.

This can be considered as giving Lou Xiao'e some advice.

The crowd gradually dispersed; after all, it was just for fun, and it was best to go to bed early since it was so late and they had to get up early for work the next day.

Apart from Xu Damao, a newly promoted cadre, the residents of the large courtyard were mostly front-line factory workers. Those who had been cadres for a long time were usually allocated a new-style tenement building.

The tenement buildings had heating so there was no need to burn stoves, and the toilets were also inside the buildings, so people wouldn't get cold bottoms in winter. They were very popular with the workers living in the buildings.

"Yawn~" Xu Damao also went home to sleep. He poured some hot water to soak his feet, but before he even finished washing his feet, he covered himself with a blanket and went to bed.

"Hiss~" The chilly blankets made me shiver all over.

This is also the fault of that silly goose.

It wasn't just in Northeast China; ordinary people in Beiping slept on kangs (heated brick beds). But when she got married, a dog with horns caused a ruckus, insisting on tearing down the kang and buying a bed instead. It was incredibly tough in the dead of winter, since there were no modern appliances like electric blankets back then, and even if there were, ordinary families couldn't afford them.

"Boom boom boom!"

Xu Damao was awakened by a knock on the door, not knowing how long he had slept. He groggily opened his eyes and saw that it was still dark outside.

"Who is it?" he called out unhappily.

The knocking on the door didn't lessen; in fact, it got louder.

With no other option, I had to put on my clothes and go open the door. I was shivering from the cold as soon as I left the warm bed. The stove I lit last night had already gone out.

Xu Damao glanced at the time as well, and wow, it was only a little past 4 o'clock!

When she opened the door and saw who was outside, she immediately burst into a tirade of abuse. "Lou Xiao'e, are you seriously ill?"

But it's so cold outside, I can't just not let her in. I'm afraid if I don't let her in, she'll keep knocking on the door.

"Xu Damao, I need to talk to you, so I won't drink the water!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao paused in his pouring of water.

"Who said I was going to give it to you?"

"I'll drink it myself!" she said, slurping down the hot water. It was so cold and there was no heating, especially since she lived alone and there was no warmth at all.

I need to find a wife as soon as possible!
I've been taking Chinese medicine for almost a month now, and my body has almost fully recovered. This precious sword can't be sharpened forever; it's time to unsheathe it.

Xu Damao's thoughts went astray for a moment.

"Xu Damao!"

"what?"

“I went to the neighborhood committee last night, but they said they didn’t want to get involved in the old lady’s case and told us to handle it ourselves!”

"After that, I went to talk to my second and third uncles, but they didn't want to get involved either!"

"There was nothing I could do but go home and ask my parents for help, but..." Lou Xiao'e, her face visibly weary, hadn't finished speaking.

Xu Damao sensed something was wrong, but was immediately interrupted. "Wait, wait a minute!"

What do you mean by saying that to me?

"Xu Damao, I really have no other choice now. The old lady can't just lie in that room all the time. Can you help me out?" Lou Xiao'e had no polite attitude when asking for help, as if it were all a matter of course.

Xu Damao didn't know what to say at the time.

Are you out of your mind?

"I'm starting to doubt whether you're even Lou Bancheng's biological son?"

"Is that woman your father or your mother? Why are you so willing to play the role of a dutiful son and grandson?"

Lou Xiao'e was displeased upon hearing this.

"Xu Damao, you..."

"Get out of here! Get out of here right now! What kind of trash are you? Nobody wants to take care of that old hag, but you act like a real grandmother!" Xu Damao cursed as he kicked her out.

He was still not satisfied, so the next day after get off work he went to Lou Lou Bancheng and said that if he wanted to leave, he should leave quickly, or he would take that silly girl back from the courtyard.

It's like my brain's been eaten by zombies all day!
