"Pfft!"
The two girls almost burst out laughing.
He's only in his early twenties, so why does he look so much older than his actual age?
It seems that even men in Beijing are divided into different classes.
Someone like the eldest brother naturally stands out from the crowd.
Like the second brother of the He family, although he is not good-looking, he is quite humorous and cute.
But someone like Xu Damao, who is neither good-looking nor smooth-talking, is someone I don't know how those women could possibly fall for.
The two people remained silent.
Xu Damao thought they were attracted by his appearance.
"These are dried sweet potatoes that a fellow villager gave me. They taste fragrant and sweet. You can eat them as a snack. Here you go."
If it were the Qin sisters, they would definitely hug them tightly.
But they didn't even look at it.
"We just finished eating."
"You can eat this as a snack. Save it for when you're hungry. Try it, it's very sweet."
“We’re already full. You should take it home and let your family eat it.”
As expected of the He family's sister-in-law, it seems that this little bit of dried sweet potato is not attractive to them at all.
Xu Damao simply pulled out his trump card.
"Have you ever seen a movie? I'm the projectionist at the factory. If you'd like to watch one, I can take you to the factory. You won't need tickets or to buy them."
(Zhao Ma's) "Are you really the projectionist at the factory?"
"Yes, I earn more than 20 yuan a month. My job is much more desirable than Sha Zhu's."
"But he can earn more than 30 yuan a month. Isn't it said that the factory cooks are the most sought-after? How come the projectionist is the most sought-after?"
“You wouldn’t know this, but he’s been working longer than me, for several years now. Once I’ve been working for a few years too, I’ll definitely be able to earn more than 30 yuan.”
"When you're earning 30 yuan, can he earn 40 yuan?"
Xu Damao was immediately stumped by their questions.
They're right. No matter how hard I try, I can't catch up to Sha Zhu's salary.
So what if they earn a little more than me?
He didn't care about those few dollars at all.
Showing movies in the countryside not only brought a salary, but also many other benefits.
He attracted many women in the factory through his job as a projectionist.
"Just tell me if you want to see a movie or not. If you agree, I can get the tickets for you tomorrow."
"The movie was really good. You've probably never seen one in the countryside before. Only you guys like it. I'll take you to see it often in the future."
"Even though I haven't worked at the factory for very long, my boss really likes me. He always takes me with him when he goes to the countryside to show movies."
"Don't underestimate the dried sweet potatoes we brought back this time. Sometimes we even bring back a whole chicken. Next time, I'll invite you to my house for chicken and chicken soup."
"I live alone in those two rooms at the back of my house. Why don't you go and have a look around now?"
Xu Damao's mouth is much better at talking than Sha Zhu's.
And everything they say is so appealing.
If her mother hadn't given them a heads-up beforehand, making them more prepared, they would have been fine.
They genuinely believed that Xu Damao was just a kind neighbor who had given them movie tickets to go to the movies.
But they now know that he had his own reasons for saying that.
He who eats another's food is bound to be obligated to him; he who takes another's money is bound to be obligated to
If you watch his movies and drink his inspirational quotes, you never know what he might do next.
The two girls shook their heads: "We don't watch movies, and we don't drink chicken soup."
195. Xu Damao has really messed up!
Even movie tickets couldn't entice them.
Xu Damao felt that the two girls were truly extraordinary.
The more unusual a woman is, the more challenging she seems to him!
"What do you like? We have everything. Why don't you come to my house and take a look?"
“I am the only son in my family. My parents and sister have moved to the old house. Now I am the only one living in these two rooms in the courtyard.”
"Although your He family has quite a few houses, it's because you have so many people. Our house is so quiet. I'm the only one here, and I can earn more than 20 yuan a month. I can eat whatever I want and do whatever I want."
“You’ve never seen such a spacious house in your rural hometown, have you? Today I’ll show you what it’s like.”
As he spoke, he took out his salary from his pocket.
"Look, this is my salary from last month that I haven't spent yet. I'm worried about how to spend this money since I'll be getting paid again this month."
“I not only have a salary, but also food stamps, which are more than enough for one person to eat.”
"The cloth coupons, bath coupons, and soap coupons that the factory usually issues are completely useless. Why don't you take them?"
He then took out several tickets and handed them to the two sisters.
It's just a few bath tickets and soap tickets. My brother-in-law sent me national grain coupons before.
They didn't even care about what he had.
"We don't want it, you should keep it for yourself."
They don't care about movie tickets, they don't care about inspirational quotes, and they don't even care about these tickets.
How come girls from the countryside are more arrogant than girls from the city!
Xu Damao was certain that it wasn't that they didn't care, but rather that they were embarrassed to take it.
They simply took out a few more industrial vouchers.
"See this? These are industrial vouchers. They can be used to buy bicycles and sewing machines. Once I've saved enough, I'll buy a Forever 28-inch bicycle."
"Have you ever seen bicycles in the countryside? Even if you have, they're probably all secondhand. If I'm going to buy one, I'll buy the latest model."
"I'll buy bicycles in a couple of days, and you can ride them around. There are so many fun places in Beijing that you haven't been to yet, have you?"
“My mom said she’ll buy me a sewing machine when I get married, then our family will have both a bicycle and a sewing machine.”
Xu Damao kept rambling on, and even he himself was moved.
But Wang Lili and Wang Pingping remained unmoved.
It's just a bicycle.
My brother-in-law's family has four bicycles!
Two cars for men and two cars for women.
My mom told me he was the first person in the whole hospital to own a bicycle!
Moreover, they didn't use their hometown at all; they bought it with their own abilities.
And then there's the sewing machine he mentioned.
The He family also has a sewing machine. Today, when Mom comes back, she will teach them how to use it.
With his meager industrial coupons, it would probably take him several years to save up enough to buy a bicycle and a sewing machine.
My brother-in-law's family already had these things.
I wonder what Xu Damao is thinking about with his 740.
Back when my brother-in-law bought these things, he wasn't even working yet!
The two girls remained unmoved.
Xu Damao was extremely anxious.
Perhaps they are different from other girls; his smooth-talking words have no effect on them.
He simply didn't believe that there were any girls in the world who weren't greedy for money.
We must take them down today!
"You wait, I'll treat you to lunch."
As he spoke, he started walking outside.
Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru heard everything he just said.
Look at Xu Damao's dejected appearance.
She couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle.
"He also makes mistakes sometimes, but unfortunately, people just ignore him."
"I wish he would give us the movie tickets; I've never been to a movie before."
"You think watching movies is a waste of time? After watching his movies, you'll probably do something else too."
"Sis, you mean all the women who went to the movies with Xu Damao were having affairs with him?"
I don't know if he had an affair or not, but I do know that he's a dishonest person.
"But he said he's treating the Wang sisters to lunch. I wonder what he'll treat them to. Do you think we might get some benefit from this?"
Qin Huairu had a sudden inspiration: "Since he loves to show off so much, let him show off to his heart's content today."
He pulled Qin Jingru along, saying, "Let's go out and cheer him on."
"You want to help Xu Damao win over the Wang sisters?"
“Brother He has been so good to us. They are the younger sisters-in-law of the He family. We can’t do this.”
"I'm not going to help Xu Damao. I just want to freeload a meal."
"Sis, how can I mooch off you? Tell me quickly, I'm starving."
Qin Huairu whispered a few words in Qin Jingru's ear.
The two of them hurriedly left the courtyard.
We found Xu Damao at the pancake stall at the street corner.
It turned out he wanted to treat them to sesame seed cakes.
He assumed the Wang sisters were from the countryside and had never seen the world.
Yesterday, He Hongyang treated them to roast chicken and roast duck.
He tried to bribe the man with a few sesame cakes.
"Are you planning to have sesame seed cakes for lunch today?"
Xu Damao was startled when he saw Qin Huairu and her sister.
"Why are you here?"
"Of course I came to see what you're treating those two sisters to."
They all saw it just now.
Xu Damao made no attempt to hide his feelings, chuckling, "They're so beautiful, any man would be tempted. We're neighbors, and I felt sorry for the girls, so I thought I'd treat them to a meal. That's not too much to ask, is it?"
"Why haven't I seen you treat us sisters to a meal?"
Xu Damao looked them up and down: "You two also need to have the capital. You're already middle-aged, and your sister hasn't even grown up yet. How can you compare to those two sisters?"
"Don't forget they're the sisters-in-law of the He family. Aren't you afraid Brother He will beat you up?"
Upon hearing his name, Xu Damao was immediately filled with dread.
