Chapter 1153 Xu Damao is in big trouble

"Hahaha, serves you right!"

The male colleague who had been hit spat at Xu Damao's retreating figure: "You dare hit me? I'll make you regret it. By the way, thanks to the security guards!"

The guy thought the security guards were there to rescue him, and he suddenly felt proud.

But others noticed something was wrong.

Xu Damao had just started to act when the security personnel arrived. Logically, it shouldn't have been that fast, especially since no one had gone to the security department to call for reinforcements.

"Xu Damao, have you done something wrong?" the woman couldn't help but ask. Although she was shouting to call the security department, she was only shouting and didn't actually get up from her seat.

"Possibly. This kid has taken a lot of bribes before, so he deserved to be arrested," the beaten male colleague said indignantly.

But the woman felt that things weren't so simple. Curious, she got up and followed him, wanting to find out what Xu Damao had done wrong.

About half an hour later, the woman returned in a hurry.

"Big news! Big news!"

"Xu Damao is going to be in big trouble now, he might even end up in jail!"

These words immediately attracted everyone's attention. Xu Damao didn't have good interpersonal relationships in the publicity department. He had offended some people in order to get promoted, so many people were happy to see Xu Damao suffer.

"Sister Zhu, tell me quickly, what did Xu Damao do wrong?"

"Did the factory find out about your business of accepting gifts in the countryside? I told you we shouldn't do this, it'll cause trouble sooner or later."

"The factory shouldn't be concerned about this, right?" The other projectionists couldn't help but shudder when they heard this.

Like Xu Damao, they would receive some bribes when showing movies in the countryside, such as chili peppers, mushrooms, and if they were lucky, they might even get a chicken.

Although it was a mutual agreement, if the factory really took it seriously, it could be classified as embezzlement and bribery.

"Why should we ignore it? Even accepting a single scallion from someone is a mistake!"

The propaganda department was full of envious people. Some of them envied the projectionist for being able to go to the countryside and collect benefits. They had long been envious and jealous. When they saw that Xu Damao was in trouble, they were extremely happy.

"Oh dear, it's more serious than this!" Sister Zhu picked up her water cup and took a few gulps; she was exhausted from running back.

"Sister Zhu, stop keeping me in suspense! What exactly did Xu Damao do wrong?"

"Kicking down the widow's door at night!"

Sister Zhu stopped hiding her information and revealed what she had found out: "The security department was just cooperating in the arrest. Xu Damao has already been sent to the yamen."

"Oh my, I knew the way this kid was looking at me was weird. Turns out he really is a pervert."

"No, what does 'kicking down a widow's door at night' mean? Sister Zhu, please tell us about it."

Some people think this statement is very informative, but others think it's a bit far-fetched, since Xu Damao is already married, so why would he need to kick down a widow's door at night?

"I don't know the specifics, but the security department told me that Xu Damao was harassing a widow in the same courtyard late at night, and then he was caught by the people in the courtyard. The widow was supposedly an employee of our factory, and later she sold her workstation at home for some reason."

"You're talking about Qin Huairu, right? Her husband's name is Jia Dongxu. He used to work in the fitter's workshop." The person who spoke also lived in Nanluoguxiang, not far from the courtyard house at No. 95.

"Yes, yes, yes, it seems to be Qin Huairu!" Sister Zhu slapped her thigh, remembering the name.

"Damn, Xu Damao is really bold. Qin Huairu's mother-in-law is no ordinary person. She's notorious in our area for being unreasonable and domineering!"

While these people were discussing this, a young man who had a good relationship with Xu Damao quietly slipped out and then hurriedly went to inform Xu Fugui.

Upon learning of this, Xu Fugui thought the kid was making fun of him.

His son already has a wife and children, how could he possibly go and provoke Qin Huairu?

Although he had moved out of the courtyard house, he still knew about the Jia family's situation and their current reputation when he occasionally delivered things to Xu Damao.

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi were known as the two widows in the courtyard, and were somewhat considered to be cursed to bring misfortune to their husbands.

Was Xu Damao so bored that he kicked Qin Huairu's door?

Besides, Qin Huairu is heavily pregnant right now!

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I need to go find out what's going on!"

Xu Fugui only had one son, Xu Damao, so he dropped what he was doing and rushed back to the courtyard house.

As soon as I entered the backyard, I saw my daughter-in-law, Hou Guifang, washing clothes by the sink, with my granddaughter lying in a stroller beside her.

"Dad, what brings you here?"

Hou Guifang was delighted. Every time Xu Fugui and his wife came to the courtyard, they would bring them things, either food and drink or money. Therefore, Hou Guifang was very happy to welcome Xu Fugui and his wife to the courtyard.

"Guifang, has Xu Damao gotten into trouble lately?" Xu Fugui asked with a serious expression.

Hou Guifang's eyes darted around: "No...no, Da Mao has been quite well-behaved lately."

Hou Guifang had already agreed to help keep Xu Damao's affair with Qin Huairu a secret, so she didn't dare tell Xu Fugui the truth.

"He's quite honest. How could the security department arrest him?"

what?

Hou Guifang was shocked and shook her head in disbelief: "Impossible. Da Mao has already paid compensation, more than a hundred yuan. Qin Huairu would not sue Da Mao."

Hou Guifang, who doesn't pay much attention to things at the hospital, is well aware of how much money Qin Huairu is currently short of.

Between paying a little over a hundred yuan and sending Xu Damao in, Qin Huairu has already made her choice.

Could it be that someone else leaked it?

"He's really gotten me into trouble! This brat is already a father, how can he still be so annoying!" Xu Fugui's face turned green with anger. Kicking a widow's door at night is a very shameful thing. Luckily, Xu Damao is already married, otherwise he wouldn't be able to find a wife because of this incident.

"Tell me the details quickly."

Hou Guifang didn't dare to delay and recounted in detail how Xu Damao provoked Qin Huairu, was discovered by the people in the courtyard, and ended up having to pay compensation.

After hearing this, Xu Fugui frowned even more deeply.

Paying money to avoid trouble should have made the matter seem over, so why were they suddenly arrested again?

"What else has Xu Damao been doing these past few days?" Xu Fugui asked again.

“Um… he got into a fight with the second uncle in the courtyard, in the cesspool. Then the second uncle was hospitalized with a cerebral hemorrhage and just came back this morning,” Hou Guifang said.

After hearing all this, Xu Fugui felt his head buzzing.

Just how many unreliable things has this rebellious son done?

Why are you fighting with your bangs for no reason?

And it was in a cesspool!
