Chapter 365: Xu Damao bleeds heavily; 500 yuan to save the house!
Next day.
Steel Rolling Mill.
Sha Zhu and Xu Damao also came to the Steel Rolling Mill canteen to eat breakfast.
However, as soon as they arrived at the canteen, everyone in the canteen cast their eyes on them!
You have to know that their reputation now was too big; they were originally rivals who fought every day!
But now, the things about them were too exaggerated; both of them had married old women who were several generations older than them!
And the things that were spread were simply too painful to hear, and everyone completely treated them as monsters.
"Yo! Xu Damao, why did you come to the canteen with Sha Zhu today? It's been a few days since I've seen you!"
"I heard you just divorced and got married again, 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, and you divorced her!"
"If you found someone better, that would be fine, but you actually found such an old woman! You're really not picky!"
"I saw you mocking Sha Zhu not long ago; how come you're following in Sha Zhu's footsteps now? Do you two have the same taste?"
The crowd mocked Xu Damao frantically; clearly, Xu Damao didn't have any good popularity in this Steel Rolling Mill.
He had been flirting around in this Steel Rolling Mill every day before, and many people had long been unable to stand him!
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 came to the canteen, so many people would mock him.
"None of your damn business! I want to do whatever I want; do I need you to say any ghost words here!"
"Who told you I married her? I just saw that 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 Damao was full of anger, actually lying with his eyes open, saying he didn't marry the old lady.
"Is that so? Xu Damao, when I went to the neighborhood office yesterday, why did I see your marriage photo with the old lady posted on the public board? You can't fake this!"
"I specifically went to the neighborhood office to ask, and they said you just got your certificate and left. What else do you have to say!"
"So disgusting! That old woman in the photo not only has a face full of wrinkles but is also covered in wounds and old scars. That face, I really felt my back crawl when I saw it. Xu Damao, how could you look at it!"
"I remember the wife you found before was so beautiful. How could your brain be flooded with water to marry such a dead old hag!"
"When you turn over at night and see that face, you won't be scared into peeing, will you!"
It wasn't so easy for Xu Damao to fool them; after all, the employees of the Steel Rolling Mill weren't fools.
Xu Damao couldn't say a word now, knowing that if this continued, Sha Zhu would reveal more things, so he snorted coldly and left the canteen.
He was increasingly angry on the way, but he never expected that he would fall to this point. He originally planned to get a large sum of money after divorcing Lou Xiaoe to live a carefree life.
But now, not only did he not get a single cent, he also married this old woman, and now the house and money in his hands were about to be lost!
After thinking about it, he knew he could only find Chen Tian to think of a way, otherwise, he would really become a pauper!
Afterward, 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 Damao decided to knock on Chen Tian's office door. He really had no second way now.
"Come in!"
And Chen Tian had long known that the person at his office door was this Xu Damao, and at this moment, he said slowly.
Xu Damao pushed the door open, but his heart was incredibly furious. He never expected that he would fall to this point now.
Before, no matter what, he could still ask Lou Xiaoe to help, but now Lou Xiaoe had divorced him, and he could only come to the Steel Rolling Mill to find Chen Tian with a gray face.
"Engineer Chen, you came to work so early today. Did you eat breakfast? Do you plan to go back to the Sihe Academy to eat at noon? Should I pay for you to go to a good tavern to eat something good!"
Xu Damao also fawningly smiled and curried favor; clearly, he didn't dare to offend this Chen Tian, otherwise, he would be finished!
"Fine, stop with the nonsense. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. I don't have that much time to waste with you!"
But Chen Tian just responded coldly, knowing that this Xu Damao must have come to ask for his help.
He didn't want to listen to Xu Damao's nonsense here; after all, a petty person like Xu Damao couldn't possibly have any change in character.
"Fine, fine, fine! 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 I was at 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 age, and she actually intends to let me give her all my money and the house deed on me. Then I really won't have any guarantee!"
"And given her attitude toward me now, if I really give her the house deed, then the money will be gone, and the house will be gone. I really won't have anywhere to cry!"
"I can only come to find you for help now. After all, you're the only engineer in the entire Sihe Academy. I'm really at a dead end now. Please help me! Engineer Chen!"
Xu Damao was really about to cry as he spoke. He didn't close his eyes all night last night; the old lady's snoring was simply too terrifying.
He really wanted to go to the kitchen to get that rusty kitchen knife and hack the old lady to death several times!
After Chen Tian finished listening, he wasn't angry at all, naturally knowing the situation of these two people now.
It was just that Chen Tian didn't expect this old lady to be so greedy. She had already dragged Xu Damao to get married, and now she didn't even intend to leave Xu Damao a single bit of his house and money.
"I can protect your 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. Those are the two choices!"
Chen Tian didn't want to watch this Xu Damao act in his office anymore and 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 Damao.
After Xu Damao finished listening, his expression changed. He didn't expect Chen Tian to have the same price!
500 yuan!
That was almost all his savings!
To protect his house, the days after this would be even more miserable. This old lady wanted him to spend money on food and drink now, and if he couldn't satisfy this old lady later, he would be tortured every day.
"Engineer Chen, can you make it a little cheaper? Now this old lady wants me to spend money on food and drink. If I give you 500 yuan, I really won't have much money left!"
"If she's unhappy later, I'll really be in big trouble. She talks about going to the police station to report me every day. I really have no way!"
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.
But Xu Damao didn't have such a big face now!
"500 yuan! Not a cent less. If you don't have the money, just leave and stop bothering me!"
But Chen Tian just glanced at him coldly; he didn't intend to do any favors for Xu Damao!
Chen Tian also started to drive him away; Chen Tian didn't have time to grind with him here.
Seeing that Chen Tian was about to drive him away, Xu Damao could only nod and agree.
"Fine, fine, fine! 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!" ===== CHAPTER 366 =====
