The next day.

The rolling mill.

Sha Zhu and Xu Xu Damao also arrived at the rolling mill cafeteria to eat breakfast.

However, as soon as they arrived at the cafeteria, everyone in the cafeteria cast their eyes on them!

You must know that their reputation was too big now; they were originally mortal enemies, fighting every day!

But now the deeds of the two of them were too exaggerated; both of them had married old women who were several generations older than them as wives!

And the things that were spread were truly too painful to hear, and everyone completely treated them as monsters.

"Yo! Xu Xu Damao, why did you come to the cafeteria with Sha Zhu today? It's been a few days since I've seen you!"

"I heard you just got married again after divorcing, and the person you married is an old woman who is several decades old and about to enter the grave?"

"Tell me, what were you thinking? You had such a good wife and didn't take good care of her, yet you divorced her!"

"If you found someone better, that would be fine, but you actually found an old woman who is so many years older. You really aren't picky!"

"I saw you mocking Sha Zhu not long ago, why are you following in Sha Zhu's footsteps now? Do you two have the same taste?"

The crowd was mocking Xu Xu Damao frantically; clearly, Xu Xu Damao didn't have any good popularity in this place.

Having been flirting around in this rolling mill every day, many people had long been unable to stand him!

Xu Xu Damao's face turned red; he originally thought that after coming to the Sihe Academy, he could settle down for a while, but he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived at the cafeteria, so many people would mock him.

"What does it have to do with you? I'll do whatever I want, do I need you to say any ghost words here!"

"Who told you I married her? I just saw she was too old, so I went to take care of her. We didn't get married at all, we are mother and son, do you hear me?"

Xu Xu Damao was full of anger, actually lying with his eyes open, saying he didn't marry the old lady.

"Is that so? Xu Xu Damao, when I went to the street office yesterday, why did I see your wedding photo with the old lady posted on the bulletin board? You can't fake this!"

"I even specifically went to the street office to ask, and they said you just got your certificate and left. What else do you have to say!"

"It's really disgusting. The old woman in the photo is not only full of wrinkles, but also covered in wounds and old scars. That face, I really felt my back go cold when I saw it. Xu Xu Damao, how could you look at it!"

"I remember the wife you found before was beautiful, why did your brain get flooded to marry such a dead old woman as your wife!"

"If you turn over at night and see this face, won't you be scared into peeing yourself!"

It wasn't so easy for Xu Xu Damao to fool them; after all, the employees of the rolling mill weren't fools.

Xu Xu Damao was completely speechless now, knowing that if this continued, Sha Zhu would reveal more things, so he snorted coldly and left the cafeteria.

On the way, he thought about it and got angrier; he never expected that he would fall to this point. He originally planned to get a large sum of money after divorcing Lou Xiao'e to live a carefree life.

But now, not only did he not get a single cent, but he also married this old woman, and now his house and money were about to be lost!

After much thought, he only knew that he could only ask Chen Tian for a way now, otherwise he would truly become a pauper!

Afterwards, Xu Xu Damao had no heart to return to the propaganda department, and went directly to Chen Tian's office.

After hesitating at the door for a while, Xu Xu Damao decided to knock on Chen Tian's office door; he truly had no second way now.

"Come in!"

And Chen Tian had long known that the person at his office door was Xu Xu Damao, and now he said slowly.

Xu Xu Damao pushed the door open, but his heart was incredibly angry; he never expected that he would fall to this point now.

No matter what, he could have asked Lou Xiao'e to find you for help before, but now Lou Xiao'e had divorced him, and he could only come to the rolling mill to find Chen Tian with a gray face.

"Chief Engineer Chen, you came to work so early today. Did you eat breakfast? Do you plan to go back to the Sihe Academy for lunch? Should I pay to invite you to a good tavern to eat something good!"

Xu Xu Damao was also fawning with a smile to curry favor; clearly, he didn't dare to offend Chen Tian at all, otherwise he would be finished!

"Alright, stop with the nonsense. If you have anything, just say it directly. I don't have that much time to spend with you!"

And Chen Tian just responded coldly, knowing that Xu Xu Damao coming here was definitely to ask him for help.

He didn't want to listen to Xu Xu Damao's nonsense here; after all, it was impossible for a petty person like Xu Xu Damao to have any change in personality.

"Alright, alright! Chief Engineer Chen, then I'll make a long story short. I really came to find you for something!"

"You also know what kind of life I'm living in the Sihe Academy. Now that this old woman has married me, she really doesn't let me go for a single day!"

"Although it was my fault first, I also thought about taking good care of her, and then holding a funeral for her after she passed away!"

"What I didn't expect was that this old lady really didn't leave me any way to live. She's at such an old age, yet she still intends to make me give her all my money and the house deed I have on me. Then I really won't have any guarantee!"

"However, with her attitude toward me now, if I really give her this house deed, then the money will be gone, the house will be gone, and I really will have nowhere to cry!"

"I can only come to find you for help now. After all, you are the only engineer in the entire Sihe Academy. I really took the wrong path now, please help me! Chief Engineer Chen!"

Xu Xu Damao was almost crying as he said this; he hadn't closed his eyes all night last night, and the old lady's snoring was truly too terrifying.

Several times he really wanted to go to the kitchen to take that rusty kitchen knife and hack the old lady to death!

After hearing this, Chen Tian didn't have any anger; naturally, he knew the situation of these two people now.

However, Chen Tian didn't expect the old lady to be so greedy; she had clearly dragged Xu Xu Damao to get married, and now she didn't even intend to leave Xu Xu Damao's house and money to him.

"I can keep the house for you, 500 yuan, think about it yourself, can you take out this sum of money?"

"Or transfer the house to my name, and keep 500 yuan for yourself, just these two choices!"

Chen Tian didn't want to watch Xu Xu Damao act in his office anymore, so he said slowly; clearly, he didn't intend to do anything thankless.

This 500 yuan had to be collected; he wouldn't really open any back door for this Xu Xu Damao.

After hearing this, the expression on Xu Xu Damao's face changed; he didn't expect Chen Tian to have his own price!

That was almost all his savings!

To keep his house, the days after this would be even more miserable. This old lady now wanted him to pay for all her food and drink, and if he couldn't satisfy this old lady later, wouldn't he be tortured every day.

"Chief Engineer Chen, can it be a little cheaper? Now this old lady wants me to pay for all her food and drink. If I give you 500 yuan, I really won't have any money left!"

"If she's unhappy later, I'll really be in big trouble. She talks about going to the police station to call the police at every turn, I really have no way!"

Xu Xu Damao's face was extremely ugly, and he could only look at Chen Tian to see if he could lower the price a little more.

However, Xu Xu Damao didn't have such a big face now!

"500 yuan! Not a cent less. If you don't have the money, leave immediately, don't bother me here!"

And Chen Tian just looked at him coldly; he didn't intend to do any good deeds for Xu Xu Damao!

Chen Tian also started to issue an order to evict the guest; Chen Tian didn't have time to haggle with him here.

Seeing that Chen Tian was about to drive him away, Xu Xu Damao could only nod and agree.

"Alright, alright! You agreed, that's good. I'll go back and scrape the money together now. I'll definitely give you the money before I get off work tonight!"
