Chapter 751: Xu Xu Damao Remarries

Sihe Academy

Night.

Xu Xu Damao, his face creased with worry, found Cao Cao Weiguo:

"Cao Weiguo, little brother!"

"You absolutely have to help your brother out!"

Cao Cao Weiguo poured a cup of tea: "Brother Xu Damao, how do you want me to help you?"

Xu Xu Damao said urgently: "Help me get back to work at the Rolling Mill."

Cao Cao Weiguo frowned: "The suspension and disciplinary action were decided by the factory leadership at a meeting."

Xu Xu Damao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said:

"Cao Weiguo, I know you have connections!"

"As long as I can get back to work, I'm willing to pay one little gold bar!"

Cao Cao Weiguo looked at Xu Xu Damao with some surprise:

"Brother Xu Damao!"

"I can help you pull some strings."

"But your situation won't be easy to handle."

"The outcome may not be what you'd hoped."

"You need to be mentally prepared."

Xu Xu Damao nodded quickly:

"Thanks, Brother Cao Weiguo!"

"Don't worry, I'm prepared!"

"As long as I can get back to work at the factory, I will definitely show my deep gratitude!"

Xu Xu Damao had no money in his pocket, but Xu Fu and Xu Mu did.

Xu Mu had worked as a servant in the Lou household for decades.

She had quite a bit of savings tucked away.

Xu Fu also had a fair amount of family wealth.

Xu Xu Damao thanked Cao Cao Weiguo profusely.

Then he pointed at the middle courtyard and cursed out Yi Yi Zhonghai.

Cao Cao Weiguo seized a spare moment and asked curiously:

"Brother Xu Damao, are you really going to marry that woman?"

Xu Xu Damao's face immediately turned into a bitter gourd:

"No choice!"

"The two of us were caught in bed by the street office."

"If I don't marry her, I'll have to go sit in a bitter kiln."

This time, Xu Xu Damao's escape was thanks not only to the Lou family and the Xu family's back-channel arrangements.

The fact that both Xu Xu Damao and that woman were single was also an important reason.

If the two got married and registered, that incident would be counted as premarital impropriety.

But if they didn't marry, it would be ironclad promiscuous relations between men and women.

Although Xu Xu Damao looked down on that widow, and it had only been a fling with her.

Faced with the prospect of prison, he could only grit his broken steel teeth and swallow it down.

Cao Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "Getting married is good too — that bad thing turns into a happy occasion."

"Once you've got the certificate, it'll be easier for me to put in a good word for you when I'm pulling strings."

"The circumstances are different, so your disciplinary action will be different too."

Xu Xu Damao's eyes lit up: "Really? Then I'll go register the certificate tomorrow!"

The two chatted for a while, and Xu Xu Damao hurried home.

Before long he pushed his bicycle out the door — presumably to look for his old flame.

The next day, at noon, the blazing sun hung high.

Xu Xu Damao walked into Sihe Academy with a glamorous woman with a wasp waist and a plump behind.

The woman was leading a little girl by the hand, while Xu Xu Damao carried big and small bundles.

The neighbors in the courtyard saw this scene and were so shocked their jaws couldn't close.

Third Auntie stared blankly for quite a while before coming back to her senses:

"Xu Damao! Who is this? What is this about?"

Xu Xu Damao, his face beaming with spring breeze, said: "This is my wife He He Wenjie — we're married."

Third Auntie and the uncles and aunties in the courtyard were stunned.

One by one, they stared at Xu Xu Damao with looks of astonishment.

Xu Xu Damao, holding He He Wenjie's hand, said with an indignant look:

"He Wenjie and I fell for each other and were courting."

"It was that old bastard Yi Yi Zhonghai who maliciously slandered us!"

"He ruined my reputation and got me a disciplinary action!"

"Now He Wenjie and I have registered our marriage certificate."

"We're a legal married couple now!"

"Let's see how Yi Yi Zhonghai can still sling mud!"

Xu Xu Damao's carrying-on outside had become the talk of the town.

Everyone in the courtyard knew about it.

But now Xu Xu Damao had taken the woman as his wife and brought her home.

Yi Yi Zhonghai's reporting had become even more unpopular.

One was divorced, the other a widow living alone.

Two single people falling for each other.

Even if shacking up without marriage isn't exactly moral, the two of them were in love.

How is that any of your business?

As an elder neighbor, not blessing them would already be bad enough.

Yet you went and maliciously reported them behind their backs!

That is simply inhuman!

What kind of person does that!

Weren't you reporting them for carrying on with each other?

They've now registered their marriage and got their certificate.

What more can you say?

No matter how the Subdistrict Office praises Yi Yi Zhonghai for his tip-off,

in any case, Yi Yi Zhonghai's backstabbing behavior had already earned him deep disgust.

It's just that, Xu Xu Damao had divorced Lou Xiaoe.

And in the blink of an eye, married a woman who came with a widow's child.

What was he thinking?

Could it be that Xu Xu Damao, like He Great Qing, likes widows?

Amid the neighbors' well-wishes, Xu Xu Damao walked home with He He Wenjie, all smiles.
