Chapter 143 Xu Damao wants a divorce!



Chapter 143 Xu Damao wants a divorce!

At night, Xu Damao's house was dark, and several people were eavesdropping outside. Sha Zhu, Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangtian, and three people who were about the same age as Liu Guangfu. Yan Jiekuang took a look, but he was not interested.

This is Xu Damao's third marriage, which is quite rare in that era.

Xu Damao was quite capable to marry the daughter of a leader after being divorced twice, but he was not too happy. In a blink of an eye, Xu Damao and Luo Xiumei had been married for more than half a month.

Due to food shortage, the food in the factory is getting worse and worse.

This afternoon, Yan Jiekuang came to the canteen and did not see much fine grains, meat or eggs.

In addition to coarse grains, there are cabbage stalks and wild vegetable soup.

It’s just that potatoes and radishes are quite luxurious.

This is the case with all the important factories in the capital, not to mention the rural areas.

I queued up and bought two steamed buns, a serving of cabbage stalks stewed with vermicelli, and some wild vegetable soup.

There was not much oil in it, and Yan Jiekuang simply couldn't swallow it.

Seeing that others were eating with relish, Yan Jiekuang also felt a little envious.

Without eating in the cafeteria, Yan Jiekuang returned to his own office.

After eating some vermicelli, Yan Jiekuang put the steamed bread, cabbage stalks and wild vegetable soup into the system space to feed the pigs. Then, he made a bowl of egg fried rice, some sausages, and a chicken drumstick.

Everyone was eating in the cafeteria, and Yan Jiekuang closed the door, so no one noticed.

There are also many people who secretly eat delicious food at work and at home.

Yan Jiekuang had supplies, so he could eat meat every day and there was no need for him to suffer.

Eat the chicken legs first. They are leftovers from making beggar’s chicken yesterday.

After eating the chicken leg, a big bowl of fried rice and some sausages, Yan Jiekuang was full.

After washing the lunch box and putting it on the table, Yan Jiekuang went for a walk outside the factory.

The lunch break is quite long, and Yan Jiekuang didn't want to take a nap today, so he rode his bike to go out of town. Because of the general environment, no one is messing around with antiques now, and antiques are becoming less and less valuable.

Since antiques are no longer valuable and Yan Jiekuang has the space, he naturally wants to collect some.

Others think gold is the best, but Yan Jiekuang knows the future value of antiques.

An antique that is worth one dollar now may be worth millions or even tens of millions in a few decades.

More than half an hour later, Yan Jiekuang was also ready to return to the factory.

During this half hour, Yan Jiekuang bought several antiques, a total of just over two pieces, a piece of jade, a porcelain bowl with Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain, and two rusty bronzes. After placing the antiques in the space, Yan Jiekuang felt relieved.

On the way back to the factory, Yan Jiekuang was also stunned when he saw a street sweeper on the side of the road.

Stopping his bicycle, Yan Jiekuang made sure that he was not mistaken. The man sweeping the street was Xu Damao's father-in-law.

Xu Damao's father-in-law is a leader, and his status is comparable to that of Yang Dawei, the director of a steel rolling mill.

"When did Xu Damao's father-in-law start sweeping the streets?" Yan Jiekuang was also surprised.

But it's not surprising.

Some senior leaders suddenly became street sweepers.

Even some big shots lived in cow sheds and were undergoing labor reform. In comparison, sweeping the streets was already a good job.

It is no exaggeration to say that there are many people vying for a street sweeping job in Beijing.

"Xu Damao probably doesn't know yet!" Yan Jiekuang thought to himself.

The main reason why Xu Damao married Luo Xiumei was because Luo Xiumei's father was a leader. Now, less than a month after the marriage, his father-in-law is sweeping the streets.

I have to say that Xu Damao is quite unlucky.

After taking another look at the figure sweeping the street, Yan Jiekuang rode away on his bike.

I had just returned to the factory and had just finished tying my bicycle when I ran into Xu Damao.

"Section Chief Yan." Seeing Yan Jiekuang, Xu Damao also greeted him.

"Xu Damao, I just saw your father-in-law sweeping the street." Yan Jiekuang said to Xu Damao.

Upon hearing what Yan Jiekuang said, Xu Damao was completely stunned.

"My father-in-law is sweeping the streets?" Xu Damao was stunned.

Xu Damao was unwilling to believe it, but Yan Jiekuang didn't want to joke about it, and it was impossible for him to joke about it.

"Where did you see it?" Xu Damao asked quickly.

"Go straight out of the factory gate, turn right at the first intersection, and then turn left."

As soon as Yan Jiekuang said this, Xu Damao immediately rode his own bicycle.

This matter is too important to Xu Damao, he must get to the bottom of it.

Luo Xiumei didn’t know about it yet, which meant that Xu Damao’s father-in-law had also been sweeping the streets for only a short time.

Of course, it is also possible that Xu Damao's father-in-law has a twin brother.

In addition to twin brothers, there are some people who are not related at all and look the same.

So, he may not necessarily be Xu Damao’s father-in-law.

However, Yan Jiekuang should not have seen it wrong.

Next, Xu Damao’s mentality was about to collapse.

During working hours, Xu Damao left the factory and was absent from work.

When Xu Damao saw his father-in-law sweeping the street, his mentality collapsed.

Xu Damao's father-in-law was sweeping the street and saw Xu Damao.

Xu Damao had a gloomy face and walked over to ask.

Soon, Xu Damao found out that his father-in-law had made a mistake and was no longer a leader, so he was assigned to sweep the streets.

“Fuck…?” Xu Damao was about to explode.

His father-in-law went from being a leader to a street sweeper, which was a huge disappointment for Xu Damao.

"Xu Damao, even if I become a street sweeper, I am still your father-in-law, so don't be disrespectful to me." Xu Damao's father-in-law also had a bad temper.

"A street sweeper is qualified to be my father-in-law, Xu Damao?" Xu Damao immediately turned hostile.

"You...?" Xu Damao's father-in-law was also very angry. He didn't expect Xu Damao to be such a good-for-nothing.

After falling out with his father-in-law, Xu Damao was bound to get a divorce. He had never liked Luo Xiumei in the first place, and only married her because her father was a leader. However, he did not expect that less than a month after their marriage, his father-in-law would become a street sweeper.

"You made a mistake and you are a bad guy. Stop complaining in front of me." Xu Damao pointed at his father-in-law's nose.

Xu Damao's father-in-law fainted from anger.

Seeing that his father-in-law was so angry that he fainted, Xu Damao left immediately.

Xu Damao didn't go to the factory either, he went straight home.

Luo Xiumei doesn't go to work. She just does housework at home every day, washes clothes, cooks, and then walks around the neighborhood.

When Xu Damao returned to the compound, there were only some old men and women and a few children.

When he arrived at the backyard, Xu Damao saw his wife standing at the door of the deaf old lady's house.

The deaf old lady, Aunt Yi and Luo Xiumei were sitting on small stools chatting, while Xiaodang and Xiao Huaihua were playing in the yard.

"Xu Damao? Why are you back?" Aunt Yi was also surprised to see Xu Damao.

The steel mill hasn't closed yet, why did Xu Damao come back so early today?

The deaf old lady's expression changed. Looking at Xu Damao's look, she knew something was going to happen.

Luo Xiumei was also very curious.

As soon as Xu Damao opened his mouth, Luo Xiumei was stunned.

"I want to divorce you."

Less than a month after their marriage, Xu Damao actually wanted a divorce, which surprised the deaf old lady and Aunt Yi.

"Why?" Luo Xiumei asked.
