Chapter 393: Chaos in the Courtyard
The dispute in the back house ended with Yu Li returning to her parents' home with her child.

Yan Jiecheng was eating his breakfast while he said indignantly:

"This woman is really rebellious! She just wants to do something stupid every day."

Yan Jiedi said:

"Brother, my sister-in-law is crying out for a divorce. It would be fine if you didn't try to persuade her, but why are you cursing at her?"

Yan Jiecheng took a bite of half a steamed bun and said:

"If you ask for the bicycle now, you will have to split up the family soon, and we don't know what will happen next. If you don't agree, we will get divorced, and then this family will be ruined, don't you think so, Mom?"

The three aunts agreed very much:
"This woman is better off staying at home to take care of her husband and children and keeping to herself. If she goes out to work, she will be out in the open and it will be hard to control her."

Yan Jie Di suddenly felt a little sad. Her family cared about her, otherwise they would not have let her two brothers go to the countryside, especially her second brother who had good grades. But, they didn’t care that much. For example, what her mother said was probably her true thoughts. She listened to her husband and her son and had no ideas of her own.

But Yan Jiecheng said:

"Mom, what are you talking about? Jie Di is still looking for a job!"

The three aunts slapped their heads and said:
"Oh, look at my brain, it's so muddled! It still depends on the person. Our Jie Di will definitely behave herself in the future, not like your Yu Li."

Yan Jiecheng said:

"Hey, mom, you don't have to be so obvious with the pulling and stepping, right?"

Both mother and son felt that Yu Li would not be able to stay at home for more than a few days and would definitely have to come back.

Whether it's her mother's house or her sister's house, she can stay for a few days occasionally, but where can she live for a long time? Housing conditions are not rich these days. Don't look down on the back house they live in now, it also has a private door and courtyard, doesn't it?

……

Yu Li walked out of the alley, her thighs and buttocks were so sore that she finally had to give up walking and took the bus.

She originally wanted to take the child to Wang Yuanchao's place, but Wang Yuanchao should have left, right? Forget it, the matter has not been settled yet, so he cannot be involved.

Does the Yan family still think they can control me as before?

Big mistake!

She really had nowhere to go before.

Yes, my daughter Xiaocao, if they get divorced, the Yan family will definitely not want you, they don’t want you.

It is very difficult for a divorced woman with a child to find a man with a formal job.

At least she was familiar with the courtyard, and Wang Li could help her quietly, so she could still hold on.

But now, with Wang Yuanchao's words as a support, she has a place to go!

As for is there anyone to help take care of the children?
She has money now! What Wang Yuanchao gave her this time is equivalent to her three years' salary! Let her mother help take care of her granddaughter. For the sake of money, her mother can't refuse! Then when Xiaocao is older, she can be sent to kindergarten. It won't interfere with her work!
Yes, even after divorce, Yu Li still wanted to work and strive to get a permanent job.

She knew that Wang Yuanchao would never marry her.

Being together in the first place was just an accident.

Everyone in Siheyuan knew about his girlfriend, who was officially announced at the time. She was an outstanding young actress in the art troupe.

Yu Li’s family knows her own business.

Although I don’t know how he got into an accident and is fine, it’s still good. At least his life won’t be worse than it is now.

If we don't have a few more divorce battles, what will the people around us think?
There are many reasons why the Yan family is so stingy.

There has to be more quarrels and arguments before the divorce can end in a legitimate way.

……

Rolling mill

Qin Huairu blocked Xu Damao in a corner.

Xu Damao looked disdainful and annoyed:

"Aren't we even now? I've transferred you to look after the warehouse, so why are you still looking for me?"

Yes, she was transferred from the workshop to the warehouse. It was an easy job, but that was a deal with Director Li, not Xu Damao's credit! Qin Huairu gritted her teeth and said:
"Let's not talk about whose contribution it is. I only want to ask you for one thing. Please don't embarrass Shazhu, okay?"

Xu Damao didn't respond, and embarrassed Sha Zhu. That was a common interest between him and Deputy Director Wang, and it was a bond between the alliance, right? He twisted his mouth:

"Hey, did you forget who introduced you?"

Qin Huairu didn't care and prayed:
"Sister, please!"

Xu Damao glanced at Qin Huairu. He had not touched her since he introduced her to Director Li. However, Director Li would just change his taste, just like him, Xu Damao. How could they hang themselves on this tree? However, Director Li was a kind man. He transferred her to the warehouse, which was considered to be free from heavy physical labor.

But Xu Damao was still a little afraid of this woman. What if Director Li wanted to taste this dish again one day? What if she was talking nonsense to Director Li?
"You can't ask me to do this. I'm just a small propaganda section chief, and there are a lot of directors and deputy directors above me."

Xu Damao emphasized the word "deputy director". His meaning was very clear. Go find your cousin's husband. He is the deputy director! He is in charge of the armed forces of the steel mill!
Didn’t Qin Huairu want to look for it? She did look for it!

Wang Heping just said:

"Why are you begging for Sha Zhu? Don't you know how many people he has offended with his mouth?"

Wang Heping never mentioned the fact that Sha Zhu had fought with him for Qin Jingru. People said that Sha Zhu had a foul mouth and was always causing trouble.

Qin Huairu said timidly:
"We are all neighbors in the same compound. We will see each other sooner or later..."

Wang Heping immediately responded:

"He beat up Xu Damao and kicked Yan Jiecheng, isn't he a neighbor? He has a foul mouth and stole the wheel of Uncle Sanda's car, isn't he a neighbor? But you are Jingru's cousin, so I have to call you sister. I will give you face today. If you and Xu Damao live together, I have to help you two for the sake of being brothers-in-law, right? Are you two ready to live together?"

Qin Huairu immediately said in panic:

"Don't talk nonsense, I just feel sorry for him now, it's fine if you don't help me..." Qin Huairu just wanted to suck Sha Zhu's blood, why would she tie herself to Sha Zhu? Sha Zhu was changed to various positions, which greatly affected her blood-sucking plan.

After failing to find Wang Heping, she found Xu Damao. Xu Damao was the direct person in charge of many things, and she thought they must have had some friendship in the past, but Xu Damao was a slippery person.

So she mustered up her courage and bluffed:

"Then I'll go find Director Li!"

Xu Damao smiled playfully:
"I will definitely follow any resolution made by the organization, don't worry about that, Sister Qin. Don't make things difficult for us junior cadres, we all have to listen to the organization."

Xu Damao thought that Qin Huairu must be stupid to go to Director Li to tell him about this. How come she followed Director Li and pleaded for another man? What would Director Li think? If things went wrong, Qin Huairu would be demoted to the workshop!
Qin Huairu stamped her feet anxiously, then turned and left.

Sha Zhu's mouth is really embarrassing. If he just gives in and lives a peaceful life at work, we are all from the same compound, so who would make things difficult for him?
But he just said grass!
Annoyed Wang Yuanchao!

Wang Heping didn’t know the reason, but he knew that the third brother liked to listen to him talk about Sha Zhu’s bad luck, and that was enough, wasn’t it?

Otherwise, he and the third brother would have no common topics.

Not long after Qin Huairu left, Yu Haitang came to Xu Damao's office.

"How did you come?"

Yu Haitang's eyes were like catching a thief, and he said:
"I saw Qin Huairu leave from here. Did she come to see you?"

Xu Damao tilted his head, humphed, a person of integrity is not afraid of his own shadow, and said:

"She came to me and told me not to embarrass Sha Zhu, saying that we were all from the same compound.

Bah, I moved out several years ago!"

Yu Haitang was skeptical:
"She should go to Wang Heping for this matter, right? He is her cousin's husband after all."

Xu Damao took out a cigarette, struck a match, lit it, and said:
"Just a reminder to you to get promoted!"

Then he lowered his voice again:

"We are so prosperous, there are so many people who are jealous. Although no one will come into my office, the soundproofing is not so good. If someone hears you being disrespectful to the leader, wouldn't all my efforts be in vain?

Anyway, she must have asked Director Wang, and he definitely didn’t agree!”

Yu Haitang saw that her husband was so sure:

"You guys talked about it?"

Xu Damao smiled and said:
"How can your man get to this position if he doesn't know his leader well enough?"

Xu Damao has a close relationship with Director Li and Deputy Director Wang, which is why he can thrive in positions such as Propaganda Section Chief and Deputy Patrol Team Leader.

Yu Haitang was relieved to see that her husband and Qin Huairu really had nothing to do, and said:
"That woman has a bad reputation, don't let her put you off!"

In fact, it's not just that woman who has a bad reputation. Xu Damao's reputation is not good either. Otherwise, why did she insist on asking Xu Damao to move out of Nanluoguxiang?
Xu Damao puffed out smoke happily and said:
"Don't worry, you see I go to get off work and back home with you, and I take you with me when I socialize. Are you still worried?"

Indeed, after Xu Damao took up his post in the office, he had fewer opportunities to go out alone and became much more law-abiding.

The main reason is that his direct leader, Wang Heping, is also a law-abiding person, so he has to follow his leader's footsteps.

Women are fragrant, but power is even more fragrant.

He and Yu Haitang are a loving couple, and Wang Heping likes it very much. He even said that one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence, right?

And isn’t it nice to be able to go home and play with my son when I have time?
If you are really bored, you can go out and hunt for a change of pace.

The new good man is Xu Damao, he Xu Damao is the new good man!
Yu Haitang thought about it and it was true. Unless Xu Damao could clone himself, it seemed that he had indeed changed his ways after marriage! She was quite pleased with her own charm and said:
"Fine.

Oh, by the way, my sister is getting a divorce from my brother-in-law. My mother called me today and asked me to go and persuade her. Do you think I should do it?"

Xu Damao frowned.

My eldest sister-in-law married into the Yan family, and that was a disaster. Now, the child is two years old, and there is not even a pot at home. If you want to cook, you have to go to their house! Old Yan refused to agree to split up the family. Yan Jiecheng is also a coward. He doesn't know how to love his own wife. The couple has worked for several years, but they don't even have a bicycle. They rely on their own feet to go to and from get off work every day.

But then again, his sister-in-law's appearance is also in line with Xu Damao's aesthetic standards.

If his sister-in-law got divorced, shouldn't he care more about her? After all, a woman with a daughter is really...

A younger sister-in-law is half of her brother-in-law, and an older sister-in-law can also be half of her brother-in-law.

"Why are you trying to persuade her? Don't you know what kind of life she's leading?

Persuade her to go back and suffer?

Whatever she chooses is her own business, so let's not interfere."

Yu Haitang explained:

"She doesn't have Xiaocao with her. How can a divorced woman with a child live like this?"

Xu Damao said earnestly:

"Don't worry, if they really want to get divorced, we will help them if we can. We will never stand by and watch them die."

Yu Haitang raised her eyebrows:
"That's easy for you to say. Where does she live? Can you solve it? There's no room at my parents' house!"

Xu Damao pretended to be embarrassed, and then said generously:

"If it really doesn't work, just squeeze in here at our house first!
My mom is taking care of one child, and she is also taking care of two children. It shouldn't be a big problem if she squeezes in with my mom at night, right?"

Yu Haitang thought about it and realized that this would not have much impact on her life, so she said:

"Okay, I'll listen to you this time. It would be best if the Yan family makes concessions. After all, my sister is very confident this time."

When Xu Damao heard this, he really wanted to hit himself a few times. He was afraid that his wife was thinking the same thing. With his sister-in-law Yu Li acting like this, how could the Yan family not compromise?
