Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 2552 The Xu Family Siblings

The reason I didn't see He Xiao was simply because of Guan Shan.

He Yuzhu simply disliked naive and gullible women like Qin Huairu.

Guan Shan exuded that aura in every aspect, even more so than Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu's innocent, pure nature is natural, while Guan Shan's is cultivated.

Another reason for his disappearance was that he was flying back to Beijing.

In Beijing, Xu Damao hung up the phone and went back to his rented apartment.

Qin Jingru was quite surprised to see him return: "You came back by yourself?"

Xu Damao said, "I came back to see you. How have you been these past few days?"

“I’m doing fine. You don’t need to worry. My neighbors are also very kind to me.”

The courtyard they rented had a really good relationship with the neighbors.

It's not the No. 95 compound, the kind that was created by Yi Zhonghai's oppressive policies.

Especially after the neighbors in the courtyard learned the truth about courtyard number 95, they took even better care of Qin Jingru.

Qin Jingru suddenly thought of Xu Xiaoling and said, "My nephew brought Xiaoling over last week and gave me a lot of things."

I even bought you a new outfit.

Xu Damao laughed upon hearing this: "When did this girl become so considerate?"

He complained, but he was secretly delighted.

The relationship between Xu Damao and Xu Xiaoling can only be described as so-so.

It's not that Xu Damao didn't love his sister, it's just that he didn't have the opportunity to love her.

Before he started working, he was a mischievous and naughty boy who didn't know how to care for his younger sister.

Once he went to work, Xu Fugui moved out with Xu Xiaoling.

Xu Damao was busy with the affairs of the courtyard house all day long, fighting with Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai.

He rarely went back to see Xu Fugui, and saw his younger sister very few times.

Influenced by the atmosphere of No. 95 Courtyard, Xu Damao's personality became increasingly withdrawn, and his relationship with his family became more and more distant.

As Xu Damao's personality changed, the relationship between the brother and sister became increasingly distant.

Xu Damao's subsequent actions further fueled Xu Xiaoling's dissatisfaction with him.

Xu Damao made money, but Xu Xiaoling didn't get any benefit at all.

Xu Damao's high-interest loan almost implicated Xu Xiaoling.

The relationship between the brother and sister had completely hit rock bottom.

It wasn't until the nursing home was established and Xu Damao returned to it that the relationship between the siblings took a turn for the better.

Xu Damao reformed himself and paid more attention to his relationships with his parents and sister, which gradually eased the tension between the siblings.

The Xu family are all shrewd people, and they had long foreseen that the nursing home would be dissolved once Yi Zhonghai passed away.

They had already planned to move out in advance to avoid being kicked out of the Jia family's home.

What the Xu family didn't expect was that Yi Zhonghai would live so long. He was the oldest, yet he died the latest.

However, this does not affect the Xu family.

After moving out, Xu Damao did not live with Xu Xiaoling's family, but rented a house here with Qin Jingru.

Xu Damao didn't expect his nephew to take care of him forever; he only hoped that his nephew could take care of him when he became unable to move.

The fact that she thought of sending him clothes shows that she still cares about him as her uncle.

Qin Jingru said, "Xiaoling also told me to tell you to try to get as little involved in the affairs of the courtyard house as possible."

Xu Damao asked in a low voice, "Did you tell her everything about Sha Zhu?"

"I told you part of it, but I didn't mention that Bang Geng might be a spy." Qin Jingru also lowered her voice.

Xu Damao nodded: "That's right, you didn't say anything. Let me tell you, the entire Jia family, including your sister, may have been spies."

A considerable amount of evidence has already been found.

Qin Jingru was taken aback: "My sister is so old. Why is she still involved?"

It's no wonder Qin Jingru was suspicious. Qin Huairu was already sixty when the nursing home was established.

He's sixty years old, retired, and spends his days in the courtyard serving Yi Zhonghai and his gang.

Qin Huairu still had to scheme against Sha Zhu. She didn't have that much time to be a spy.

Xu Damao said, "Don't you know your sister well?"

They are greedy for money.

They'll do anything as long as it makes money.

How many times has she used her status as Sha Zhu's wife to visit the high-ranking leader's home?

The high-ranking leader's son told him everything he knew.

Considering Qin Huairu's personality, Qin Jingru couldn't find a reason to defend her.

Qin Huairu would do anything for money.

"Hey, what will happen to my sister if she gets arrested?"

Xu Damao snorted: "For what your sister did, she deserves to be torn to pieces."

Seeing that Qin Jingru was a little sad, Xu Damao said, "Don't worry too much. She's so old, even if she's arrested, they won't do anything to her."

Qin Jingru nodded, trying not to think about Qin Huairu.

"By the way, I've noticed Xiaoling hasn't been feeling well lately. If you have time, let's go see her."

Hearing this, Xu Damao's heart tightened: "What's wrong with her? Is it serious? If it is, we need to get her to the hospital right away."

Xu Damao felt particularly worried when he thought about He Yushui's untimely death.

Qin Jingru said, "Don't worry. The doctor said Xiaoling is fine."

Xu Damao, however, was not at ease. He took out 10,000 yuan from his pocket and said, "Take this money and give it to Xiaoling. Tell her she must go to the hospital for a checkup."

Don't forget about the rainwater; it's because they couldn't afford to check it that...

Qin Jingru then said, "Give me the money, what are you going to do?"

Xu Damao explained, "I'm going to He Yuxian's restaurant to get the medicinal wine that Xiao He left for me."

When Xu Damao thought of medicinal wine, he thought of its effects.

"How could I forget? Xiao He's medicinal wine is good for your health."

I gave Xiaoling a bottle of medicinal wine so she could drink some regularly.

Qin Jingru asked, "How much medicinal wine did Xiao He give you?"

Xu Damao said, "Don't worry about how much. At worst, I'll just drink less."

"Come on, come with me. We'll get the medicinal wine and take it to Xiaoling together."

Qin Jingru quickly tidied up and followed Xu Damao to He Yuxian's restaurant.

When they were almost at the restaurant, Qin Jingru got out of the car with Xu Damao ahead of time.

Xu Damao said to her, "We haven't arrived yet, why are you getting off the bus so early?"

Qin Jingru said, "We can't go there empty-handed. There's a supermarket over there, let's go buy something."

Xu Damao thought it made sense, so he followed Qin Jingru into the supermarket, bought some things, and then went to the restaurant.

He Yuxian was very familiar with Xu Damao, and when she saw him, she invited him into the private room.

"You're here to get the medicinal wine, right?"

Xu Damao looked around the restaurant and said with a smile, "Yes, I'm here to get some medicinal wine. Yuxian, your restaurant is doing quite well."

He Yuxian smiled and said, "It's alright. It's almost noon, let's have a drink together at noon."

"Okay. I'd like to try the food at your restaurant."

He Yuxian arranged for the kitchen to prepare the dishes, but before they were even served, He's father and mother arrived at the restaurant together.

Mr. and Mrs. He met Xu Damao for the first time.

Xu Damao didn't dare to put on airs: "Please sit down. Sha Zhu and I have been wanting to come and see you for a long time to thank your son for saving our lives."

Mr. He said, "Please don't be so polite. Anyone would have helped with that kind of thing."

Father He had no idea that Xu Damao was talking not only about the life-saving grace on the snowy night, but also about the Jia family being spies.

However, this matter still needs to be kept secret, and Xu Damao dared not explain it too clearly.

Since they were going to Xu Xiaoling's house later, the group only drank a few cups of medicinal wine. (End of Chapter)
