Chapter 266 The Deaf Old Lady's Plot

Sha Zhu raised his head and looked at the old lady with a complicated expression on his face. In the past, he always thought that the deaf old lady simply disliked Qin Huairu, so she always said bad things about Qin Huairu. But after knowing the bad things between Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai, he completely understood.

"Old lady, I understand. I was too stupid before and didn't see her true face." Sha Zhu said helplessly.

"You should be more careful in the future. Don't be fooled by her again. Her thoughts are all for herself and her children." The deaf old lady continued.

Sha Zhu nodded, his heart full of regret. He thought of all the things he had done for Qin Huairu, bringing her lunch boxes and helping her solve various problems, but she did such a shameful thing behind his back.

"Old lady, I won't be so stupid anymore." Sha Zhu said firmly.

The deaf old lady looked at Sha Zhu and felt a little relieved. She knew that although Sha Zhu was sometimes stupid, he was kind-hearted. As long as he could understand, he would not be used by Qin Huairu again.

After experiencing Qin Huairu's incident, the deaf old lady had a new view of the people in the yard. Recently, she has been observing the movements of Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e. For some reason, these two people often quarreled and even fought. Every time there was a quarrel, the deaf old lady would frown slightly.

Xu Damao's mean face was fully exposed during the quarrel. His sarcastic words and arrogant attitude made the deaf old lady very uncomfortable. In her eyes, Xu Damao was a selfish person with no moral bottom line.

On the contrary, the deaf old lady likes Sha Zhu more. She thinks that although Sha Zhu is simple-minded, he is kind-hearted and upright. Sha Zhu always shows his care and concern for her inadvertently, which makes the deaf old lady feel warm. In her heart, Sha Zhu is the kind of person who can provide her with old age and is worthy of her support.

Once, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e quarreled again, and the sound was so loud that the whole courtyard could hear it. The deaf old lady couldn't help but walk out of the room, looking at Xu Damao's arrogant look, her heart was full of disgust.

"This Xu Damao only knows how to bully people all day long. He has no conscience at all." The deaf old lady said to herself.

At this time, Sha Zhu happened to pass by. He saw the deaf old lady and quickly came over to ask with concern: "Old lady, are you okay? Don't let them bother you."

The deaf old lady looked at Sha Zhu with a relieved smile on her face. "Sha Zhu, you are still the best. Unlike Xu Damao, who is always causing trouble."

Sha Zhu scratched his head and smiled innocently. "Old lady, don't be angry. They will stop quarreling after a while."

As night fell, the courtyard should have been immersed in tranquility, but tonight it was broken by a fierce quarrel. Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao quarreled again, and their voices were sharp and piercing, which seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet night.

Lou Xiao'e's face was full of anger, and her eyes were burning with anger. She put her hands on her hips and asked Xu Damao loudly: "Xu Damao, do you still have a conscience? I have given so much to this family, and you are actually hooking up with the female workers in the factory!"

Xu Damao showed no guilt at all. He frowned and responded impatiently, "Don't spit blood on me! She and I are just ordinary colleagues. Don't let your imagination run wild."

"Ordinary relationship between colleagues? Ordinary colleagues will go to the movies together? Ordinary colleagues will give you gifts?" Lou Xiao'e became more and more angry as she spoke, and her voice rose by several decibels.

Xu Damao's eyes flickered, and he said with a guilty conscience: "That's just politeness. I can't refuse."

"You're polite? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? Xu Damao, you're going too far!" Lou Xiao'e was so angry that she was shaking all over.

"I'm being too much? Look at yourself, you're nagging all day long like a shrew. I'm tired enough working outside, and when I get home I have to listen to your nagging." Xu Damao was not to be outdone and retorted.

"How dare you call me a shrew? Xu Damao, you are a Chen Shimei!" Tears welled up in Lou Xiao'e's eyes.

"Chen Shimei? Don't talk nonsense. I have also contributed a lot to this family, okay?" Xu Damao still insisted.

"Sacrifice? What have you sacrificed? What else can you do besides fooling around outside?" Lou Xiao'e glared at Xu Damao.

Xu Damao was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute. But he didn't want to lose to Lou Xiao'e in terms of momentum, so he said with a stiff upper lip: "Anyway, I didn't do anything to let you down, believe it or not."

"I don't believe it! You are a liar!" After saying that, Lou Xiao'e turned around and ran into the room, closing the door with a bang.

Lou Xiao'e kept crying in her room. Her grief-stricken cry seemed to penetrate the wall. The deaf old lady next door was heartbroken when she heard the cry. She was restless in her room, listening to Lou Xiao'e's cry one after another. She really couldn't bear it.

Finally, the deaf old lady decided to take care of the matter. She slowly stood up, walked to the door of Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e with her crutches, and knocked gently.

Xu Damao's irritable voice came from the room: "Who is it?"

The deaf old lady replied calmly: "It's me."

When Xu Damao heard that it was the deaf old lady, he was reluctant but dared not to open the door. He opened the door and said impatiently: "Old lady, it's so late, what do you want?"

The deaf old lady looked at Xu Damao's appearance and felt unhappy, but she ignored him and just said, "I have something to do with Lou Xiao'e."

When Lou Xiao'e heard the voice of the deaf old lady, she wiped her tears and stood up. With red eyes, she followed the deaf old lady to her home.

As soon as she entered the room of the deaf old lady, Lou Xiaoe couldn't help crying again. The deaf old lady looked at her distressedly, took her hand and asked her to sit down.

"Xiao'e, don't cry. It's not good for your health if you cry." The deaf old lady comforted softly.

Lou Xiao'e sobbed and said, "Old lady, how can I live like this? Xu Damao has gone too far."

The deaf old lady sighed, "Xiao'e, it's inevitable that there will be bumps and bruises between husband and wife. Xu Damao did do something wrong, but you don't have to cry all the time. If there is anything, just talk it out and it will always be solved."

After hearing what the deaf old lady said, Lou Xiao'e calmed down a little: "Old lady, I also want to live a good life, but he is always like this, I really can't stand it."

The deaf old lady patted Lou Xiao'e's hand and said, "Xiao'e, you have to have a good talk with Xu Damao. Tell him all your ideas and listen to what he thinks. Only if you two work together to find a solution can we get by."

Lou Xiao'e nodded: "Old lady, I understand. Thank you."
