Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

The ancients were right; indeed, a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as cunning.

Only seven or eight days had passed, and the buzz hadn't died down yet, but Niu Dazhuang was already itching to get back to it.

The image of his intimate encounter with Lou Xiao'e that night would pop into his mind from time to time.

This is why Lou Xiao'e wasn't completely drugged in the first place. Being half-asleep and half-awake is the true essence.

This is somewhat similar to the first time I messed with Qin Huairu back in my hometown.

Of course, Lou Xiao'e is not as skilled as Qin Huairu. After all, Lou Xiao'e is still a novice, so her inexperience is to be expected.

He had just finished his shift late at night, and instead of dozing off at the office, he rode his bicycle straight to Lou Bancheng's house.

Lou Bancheng never expected that this guy would actually launch a surprise attack.

Practice makes perfect, and they successfully blew the sleeping pills into both bedrooms. However, this time they only covered Lou Bancheng's face with the sleeping pill-covered paper.

The moment Niu Dazhuang pushed open the door to Lou Xiao'e's bedroom, he was a little excited. Without turning on the light, he rubbed his hands together and reached for Lou Xiao'e's bedside...

After a while, Niu Dazhuang reluctantly climbed onto the Lou family's wall, thinking to himself, "I'll come back in a few days, it's so damn exciting."

The next day, before Lou Xiao'e had even gotten out of bed, Tan Yali pushed open the door and came in.

"Mommy, why did you come so early in the morning?"

Tanya Li didn't waste any words: "Did that person come again last night?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded shyly.

Why didn't you grab him?

"How could I possibly be a match for him, a grown man?"

"Then why didn't you call for help?"

"Mommy, by the time I was even slightly clear-headed, he was already..."

"Did you see who it was this time?"

"My eyelids were so heavy I could barely keep my eyes open, and I knew this wasn't a dream. I didn't know anything else!"

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Tanya Li looked at her daughter's expression and tone of voice, and it seemed that she even liked this bad guy a little.

"I never expected that this scoundrel would dare to come back. This won't do, I'm going to the Six Doors right now."

Lou Xiao'e quickly grabbed her arm: "Mommy, are you confused? How can you tell the people from the Six Doors? What will happen to my reputation then?"

"Then hurry up and agree to that marriage I suggested! It'll be troublesome if she gets pregnant!"

"Mommy, that Xu Damao is so ugly! His face is so long, like a donkey's! I don't like him!"

"If you can find someone to marry by the end of this year, I'll agree to your request! It's not that I'm pressuring you to get married, it's just in case..."

"It can't be such a coincidence!"

"Hmph, that scoundrel's gotten carried away; he might come back in a few days. If he comes too often, she'll definitely get pregnant. For the sake of your reputation, this can't be allowed to get out of the government's way. What do you suggest we do?"

"Sigh! I'll listen to you then."

"Starting tomorrow, I'll keep you company."

"Oh!" Lou Xiao'e agreed very reluctantly.

Actually, Tanya Li was woken up by the noise from this room in the middle of the night last night. Although she felt weak and unable to move, her mind was somewhat clear.

Four or five days later, Lou Xiao'e still felt a little hopeful, and that night she put on her prettiest pajamas.

Tanya saw through it but didn't say anything. She also changed into a silk nightgown, the kind with two straps.

Unfortunately, no one came tonight.

More than ten days later, it was almost the end of October, and the mother and daughter thought that the other party was not coming, but Niu Dazhuang came instead.

It was pitch black, and Niu Dazhuang had already gotten into bed when he realized there was someone else next to him.

This terrified Niu Dazhuang, who thought someone had dug a trap for him to fall into.

I wanted to put on my clothes and run away, but I was also a little unwilling to give up.

Even if it's a trap, now that I'm completely incapacitated, there's no real danger. I turned on the flashlight to check.

"Haha...this is a good deal! One times one equals two."

The next day, in the morning, Tan Yali and Lou Xiao'e tacitly pretended that nothing had happened.

Tan Yali has already become somewhat decadent, let alone Lou Xiao'e, who has never seen the world!

I feel like I've wasted the first half of my life.

Tanya hesitated about marrying Xiao'e off as soon as possible. What if that scoundrel stopped coming after she was married off?

Although hesitant, he had no choice but to proceed with the marriage for Xiao'e's happiness.

The parents on both sides have had a pretty good talk with each other.

"Fugui, it's not enough to just listen to you. We need to go and see for ourselves if it's true, as you say, that the young couple will have their own separate housing after marriage."

"Madam, even if you gave me a million lives, I wouldn't dare lie to you!"

"I'm not saying you're lying to me, but I only have one daughter, and I'm still worried. In this kind of environment, we can't give too much as a dowry. If it were before, my daughter wouldn't have lived in a tenement!"

"Yes, yes, you're right, Madam! When do you have time, let's go take a look!"

"Let's do it today. You go first, we'll be there shortly. 95 Nanluoguxiang, right?"

"That's right, ma'am, you have a great memory!"

Xu Fugui, it's good that you go ahead first, tidy up the house.

When the jeep reached the entrance of the alley, Tan Yali told the driver to drive back first.

The mother and daughter changed into ordinary clothes and walked arm in arm toward the courtyard house at No. 95.

Xu Fugui was already waiting at the gate. When he saw the mother and daughter arrive, he greeted them with a big smile.

He greeted them as they entered the backyard.

It was a coincidence that Niu Dazhuang was on the night shift today and had nothing to do in the morning, so he was playing with the children in the yard.

They were caught red-handed by Tan Yali and Lou Xiao'e.

The mother and daughter were both startled, and their intertwined arms trembled simultaneously. Tan Yali, more worldly-wise, patted Lou Xiao'e's hand with her other hand, meaning, "Don't panic."

Having encountered this scoundrel, how could the mother and daughter possibly concentrate on looking at the house? They didn't even drink a drop of water, and they didn't even sit down when they came inside.

Tan Yali glanced at it briefly and said, "It's alright. We've seen the house, so we won't stay any longer."

Xu Fugui didn't try to stop them. He saw the mother and daughter out of the alley before turning back.

Niu Dazhuang was very alert; he could tell from Lou Xiao'e's eyes that she recognized him.

She stopped looking at the child. Pushing her bicycle, she called out towards the house, "Xueru, I suddenly remembered something, I need to go out for a bit."

Qin Xueru hadn't even left her room when Niu Dazhuang had already pushed his bicycle to the central courtyard.

Once you're out of the alley, just keep chasing after them in the direction of the Lou family!

Fortunately, Tan Yali and Lou Xiao'e were on foot, while Niu Dazhuang was on a bicycle. He didn't chase after them for long before he saw the two figures holding hands from behind.

"Hey...hey, Lou Xiao'e!" Niu Dazhuang quickly called out to the two of them.

Tan Yali patted Lou Xiao'e's hand and whispered, "Don't say anything. I'll try to get some information out of him and see what he wants to do."

Lou Xiao'e blinked knowingly. Her heart started pounding uncontrollably.

The two turned around at the same time and almost burst out laughing when they saw Niu Dazhuang's flustered and disheveled appearance.
