Chapter 278 The Crying Xu Damao

Xu Damao was startled by Zhou Zheng's slap. He looked up and found that it was Zhou Zheng. He quickly wiped his tears and said with pursed lips: "Brother Zhou..."

Zhou Zheng suddenly felt a toothache! My goodness, Xu Damao looked so ugly! Thinking of his good relationship with Xu Damao, he suppressed his discomfort and said, "What's the matter, Damao, just say whatever you want to say, there's no need to hesitate."

Xu Damao suddenly felt like he had found his backbone, and tears started to flow again. He wiped his tears and said, "Brother Zhou, you have to make the decision for me. He Yuzhu is such a jerk. He's actually trying to steal my girlfriend!"

"Qin Jingru?" Zhou Zheng frowned. "No way. Zhuzi is already married. How could he possibly steal your girlfriend? Is there some misunderstanding?"

Xu Damao said angrily: "What kind of misunderstanding could there be? Qin Jingru is in He Yuzhu's house now!"

Zhou Zheng pondered for a moment, and then said, "Well, Damao, it's not appropriate for us to look for someone now. Talk to me first, and I'll analyze what's going on."

After saying that, he walked towards the backyard, and Xu Damao followed him. They walked all the way to Xu Damao's house, and they sat opposite each other.

Xu Damao said angrily: "Brother Zhou, it's like this..."

He described the matter in detail to Zhou Zheng. After listening to it, Zhou Zheng twitched his lips fiercely, "Da Mao, isn't this obviously a misunderstanding? If you don't believe me, call Zhuzi over alone later. I will explain it again calmly. I promise it's not what you think."

Xu Damao was too impulsive before, but now that he has calmed down, he has realized that things are different. But when he thinks of He Yuzhu punching him, he immediately says angrily, "Even so, that idiot Zhu should have kept his distance. How can he be like this? He is a fool."

Zhou Zheng chuckled, "So do you think Zhuzi is smart? He has always been like this, and he keeps a distance. You and Qin Jingru haven't established a relationship yet, so why keep a distance? If you really like Qin Jingru, then go to Qinjia Village and propose marriage. When the good thing comes true, I can give you a big red envelope. Don't you think it's too early to say this now?"

Xu Damao said aggrievedly: "Brother Zhou, you don't know, I took Qin Jingru shopping yesterday, and spent more than 50 yuan on her, and she accepted it. This doesn't mean we are in a relationship."

Zhou Zheng was stunned. It seemed that Xu Damao was sincere this time, otherwise he would not have spent more than fifty yuan! You have to know that the average wage of workers in this era was only 18 yuan, and fifty yuan was three months' salary.

"Are you serious this time?"

"Sincerely! It's truer than gold. From the first moment I saw her, I fell in love with this girl. I wanted to get married to her."

"Well, does she know you have so many sons?"

Xu Damao hesitated for a moment, "This, this... I haven't told her this yet."

Zhou Zheng waved his hands in annoyance, "Hey, forget it, this thing is not good. If you tell her now, you will be like a toad running out of the pond and throwing a bag of seeds, then returning to the pond and saying that it likes little frogs..."

Xu Damao's face darkened as he said resentfully, "Brother Zhou, can you please stop slandering me?"

Zhou Zheng laughed, "You're really a scoundrel. Well, didn't you say Qin Jingru and Zhuzi were having dinner? Let's ignore him for now. After dinner, let's call Zhuzi over alone and see what he says. But don't worry, I will definitely stand by you. That grandson won't dare to play both sides in front of me, otherwise I will kill him, haha..."

Xu Damao pulled the corner of his mouth, "What are you going to do with that thing? Make some wine. I heard that people in the countryside really do this. It doesn't matter what you drink."

"Eh~~," Zhou Zheng looked at Xu Damao with disdain, "You are so disgusting..."

Xu Damao didn't care at all. With a playful smile, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out two cigarettes, handed one to Zhou Zheng and lit it for him, "Hey, have a cigarette first."

Zhou Zheng took a quick glance and saw that Xu Damao took out a Da Zhongjiu cigarette. He exclaimed, "What level are you? You smoke the same cigarettes as me!"

Xu Damao knew Zhou was joking, so he lit up a cigarette and said, "I have always taken you as my role model, haha." Then he explained, "Well, how can I afford this? It was given to me by Guo Dapiezi, the director of the second workshop. He asked me to put in a good word for Li Huaide and transfer him to the technical department. I heard that the technical department is a good position with high salary and little work."

Zhou Zheng suddenly felt the sadness of the times, shook his head and laughed, "They are just occupying the toilet without doing anything. There are people like this everywhere. They are violating national assets and are the stinking rats of the new era."

Xu Damao took a deep puff of cigarette and slowly exhaled, "It's all like this. There are plenty of pests in the factory, it just depends on whether we deal with them or not. If we talk about the biggest pest, then Li Huaide is the one, but what can we do about it? If you're not greedy, there will be others who are greedy, and the root is rotten."

Zhou Zheng chuckled, "I didn't expect that you, Xu Damao, can see things clearly. Let's not talk about this. A few days ago, I heard that your sister is getting married?"

Xu Damao nodded, "Yes, there is such a thing, but it's a rural area. My father doesn't agree with it very much, and we are discussing it now."

Zhou Zheng flicked the ash off his cigarette and said nonchalantly, "As long as the two are sincere, you don't care whether he is from the countryside! Besides, if it weren't for your support, how could his life be bad? You just can't let it go."

Xu Damao chuckled and showed a flattering expression, "How could I have such ability? It's all thanks to you, brother, for helping me. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to support my sons, let alone help my sister."

"Let alone?" Zhou Zheng was surprised and said, "OK, Damao, you can use the word let alone. Do you know what it means?"

Xu Damao scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, "To be honest, I really don't know the specific meaning of this word, but this word always appears on the big-character posters, and my colleagues in the propaganda department always say it, so I know how to use it, and the meaning is more or less the same and I can express it clearly."

Zhou Zheng nodded, "It seems that big-character posters are still somewhat useful!"

Xu Damao hummed, "Now that production has been suspended, most factories are undergoing rectification. We have to study the big-character posters every day to improve our cultural literacy. There is nothing wrong with that. I heard that those who are isolated for reflection also have to study the big-character posters every day..."

Zhou Zheng shook his head and laughed, sighing, "It's not entirely a good thing. Okay, this is not something we should discuss. I think Zhuzi has already finished eating the piece after you made such a fuss. I'll go call him over and you can talk about it."

"Yeah!" Xu Damao nodded and looked at Zhou Zheng expectantly, "Brother Zhou, can you help me beat up Sha Zhu later? He's quite tense right now, can you help him loosen up his muscles?"

Zhou Zheng shook his head helplessly and looked at Xu Damao with amusement, "You are such a jerk, you deserve to be beaten. If you weren't so weak, I would have beaten you up severely. Come on, just wait and see."

Xu Damao chuckled, "Thank you, Brother Zhou~"

"Get out!" Zhou Zheng walked out of Xu Damao's house and walked straight to the central courtyard.
