Chapter 132: Could it be that tonight we have to stab Lou?

Hearing Shazhu's words, Qin Huairu didn't even think and refused:

"No, I can't bring myself to say that."

"Besides, Huizhen might not be willing to lend."

"You're joking."

"Asking her to lend money to help Shazhu is completely impossible."

"Besides, she doesn't even get along with Xu Huizhen; they normally have no contact."

Shazhu, unwilling to give up, asked again: "What about Xue Ru, then?"

Qin Huairu: "Go ask yourself."

"Chen Xueru and I hardly interact; you actually have the nerve to ask me to go ask her?"

Shazhu looked sullen and said: "No, I used to help your family so much."

"Now I'm in trouble, and you actually refuse to help me?"

Qin Huairu patiently said: "Shazhu, it's not that I don't want to help you."

"It's just too difficult for me."

"I'm not close with Xu Huizhen or Chen Xueru, yet you want me to go borrow money from them."

"You really have the nerve."

"Besides, there's an eighty or ninety percent chance they won't lend to you."

Shazhu: "Then if you don't try, how will you know they're unwilling to lend?"

Deaf Old Lady: "Alright, stop arguing."

"Shazhu, I think, in this courtyard, only I and the Jia family's daughter-in-law are willing to look after you."

"You can't just do as you please."

"If you annoy the Jia family's daughter-in-law and she stops caring for you, then you and I will be left alone."

"What the Jia family's daughter-in-law says also makes sense; she's not close with Xu Huizhen or Chen Xueru either."

"They might not lend either."

"I think it would be better to borrow from Lou Xiao'e."

"After all, this matter was caused by Xu Damao."

"If she won't lend, who will?"

Shazhu thought for a moment and said: "Then who should go borrow?"

Qin Huairu: "I'm not familiar with Lou Xiao'e either."

Deaf Old Lady let out a soft sigh and said:

"I'll go."

"Huairu, go tell the nurse to see if we can delay payment until tomorrow."

Qin Huairu: "Okay, old lady."

Not long after, Qin Huairu returned.

"The nurse said the latest is to pay by noon tomorrow, otherwise Shazhu's medicine will be stopped tomorrow."

Shazhu happily said: "Alright, when the car reaches the mountain, there will be a way."

"I just don't believe I, Shazhu, can't get past this hurdle."

"By the way, help me find out how long Xu Damao will be sentenced."

"Besides, Xu Damao must compensate; otherwise, once he's out, I'll definitely castrate him."

"Even if he pays compensation, I'll definitely look for a chance to castrate him."

Deaf Old Lady: "Shazhu, first get past this crisis, then we'll talk."

"If you castrate Xu Damao, you'll also be arrested and have to pay compensation."

Shazhu: "You just don't understand."

"If Xu Damao doesn't pay compensation, I'll castrate him in front of everyone."

"If he pays compensation, I'll beat him with a stick, knock him out, then castrate him."

"By then I'll make sure no one can find evidence that I castrated him."

Qin Huairu: "Shazhu, first see if you can beat Xu Damao before talking."

"I think Xu Damao probably learned martial arts from Lin Shengli; you're no match for him."

Shazhu looked disdainful and said: "Nonsense about learning martial arts, Lin Shengli's skills are just those of a three-legged cat..."

"He's just strong, that's all."

"Xu Damao, I lost because I underestimated him."

"Next time I won't underestimate him, and I'll still beat him badly."

Qin Huairu: "Alright, I'm not arguing with you anymore."

"I should head back now."

"Old lady, are you leaving now?"

Deaf Old Lady: "Hmm, let's go back together."

"It's perfect that Xu Damao isn't here; I'll go talk to Lou Xiao'e."

Shazhu: "Grandma, the deadline is tomorrow noon."

"You must make Lou Xiao'e hand over the money."

"Otherwise, I won't let her off either."

Deaf Old Lady, upon hearing that, frowned and shouted:

Shazhu, you really are a good-for-nothing!

What do you want to do?

Can you be a bit more mature?

How old are you?

What does this have to do with Lou Xiao'e?

This is your personal grudge with Xu Damao.

You've beaten Xu Damao plenty of times before.

Now Xu Damao hits you once, and you complain about this and that.

Shazhu flared up: 'How can you say that?'

Deaf Old Lady let out a long sigh, then spoke slowly:

Shazhu, it's not that Grandma wants to criticize you.

Grandma only wants you to grow up quickly.

Grandma has always treated you like her own grandson.

Deaf Old Lady had no choice but to coax Shazhu.

Because Shazhu is now her only support in her old age.

If you make Shazhu angry again, you won't be able to get by from now on.

For now she can still walk, so it's not too serious.

What if she gets a bit older?

She's not stupid.

Shazhu has a short temper.

As long as Shazhu gets angry, she has to step back.

She doesn't dare to confront Shazhu head-on.

At the same time.

Xu Damao's home.

Lin Shengli was again discussing with Lou Xiao'e what to do next.

Lou Xiao'e, according to my personal analysis, Xu Damao might be sentenced for this.

After all, he beat Shazhu into serious injury.

If it were only a minor injury, Xu Damao would at most be detained for a few days before being released.

Of course, Shazhu's injury is just my guess.

If I'm not mistaken, Shazhu's thing might basically be ruined.

You haven't seen it— the area is all soaked in blood.

I reckon the eggs are all broken.

Upon hearing this, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but exclaim:

Does that mean Shazhu will become a eunuch for life?

Lin Shengli: 'Quite likely.'

What we need to do first is see how serious Shazhu's injury is.

Check if it's a serious injury; if it's not serious, Xu Damao will be released soon.

If it's a serious injury, then this gets tricky.

Lou Xiao'e thought for a moment, then said:

That's also Shazhu's own fault.

Xu Damao told me that Shazhu has been kicking his vitals since childhood.

Perhaps that's why Xu Damao can't have children.

However, Shengli, we've already discussed this.

I won't hide it from you anymore.

Actually, Xu Damao and I have always been in name only.

I, how to put it, I've long had no feelings for him.

Back then, it was also my mom believing his mom's words, his mom constantly praising him in front of my mom, and then my mom insisted I marry him.

Of course, I also thought he had a decent job, a sweet tongue, and could cheer me up.

Otherwise my mom couldn't have forced me.

To be honest, I've long thought about divorce.

But given my background, if I divorced, I probably couldn't find someone better than Xu Damao.

Anyway, since it's like this, I also thought maybe if we just got along and had a child, things would be fine.

Who knew he couldn't have children.

I can't tolerate this any longer.

I just want to divorce him as soon as possible.

Lou Xiao'e had been speaking with her head slightly lowered; upon reaching this point, she raised her head, looked at Lin Shengli, and asked:

Do you know why I haven't chosen to divorce him?

Lin Shengli shook his head: 'I don't know.'

Lou Xiao'e said softly: 'Because Xu Damao allows me to have children with the man I like.'

Do you know who the man I like most is?
