Chapter 80: Test the waters with Xu Damao first
"Brother, to be honest with you..."
"I've known for a long time that these bastards are nothing."
"Yan Bugui, what's that called?"
"The wardrobe has no handles. What do you mean? Stingy!"
Xu Damao was getting into the mood. He touched Jiang Bo's arm with the back of his hand and whispered in his ear:
"There's something you don't know. You'll be happy if you know it."
"His son and his wife live with them and pay rent to them every month. Do you think they are happy?"
After he said that, he couldn't help but chuckle.
After laughing, he continued:
"In bangs."
"You see, he's usually quite a crowd."
"That's a bureaucrat fan."
"He is the one who uses chicken feathers as a token of authority."
"Among these three people, Yi Zhonghai is the worst."
"Don't be fooled by the fact that he seems to be nice to Shazhu. He is actually just fooling a fool."
"He treated the Jia family like that..."
"You can see that, right? He is counting on Jia Dongxu to take care of him in his old age!"
Jiang Bo looked at Xu Damao quietly.
I didn’t expect that although Xu Damao looked a bit unreliable, he was actually very accurate in judging people and things.
No wonder Xu Damao has a good life despite the ups and downs in the later plot.
Xu Damao was still chattering:
"That old pious woman named Jia Zhang has caused trouble for everyone in the courtyard."
"Speaking of this, it's still you, my brother!"
Xu Damao gave Jiang Bo a thumbs up:
"Today you gave that old man a slap in the face. It made me feel so relieved."
"Yi Zhonghai, that old fox, still gets humiliated when he comes to you."
"Brother, you...are the one from Yard 95!"
Xu Damao's tongue became a little big from drinking so much.
He swayed and gave Jiang Bo a thumbs up.
Seeing that he was losing his composure, Lou Xiao'e wanted to kick him under the table to remind him to drink less.
Unexpectedly, Xu Damao didn't react. Jiang Bo turned his head and looked at her strangely.
Only then did she react.
It seems like I kicked the wrong person.
Lou Xiao'e blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
He lowered his head and dared not look up, absent-mindedly picking at the food in the bowl.
Jiang Bo didn't care.
He smiled and said to Xu Damao:
"Stop talking about this."
"You also know my character."
"If things don't happen, I won't take the initiative to cause trouble, but if things happen, I'm not afraid of them either."
Xu Damao was startled:
"Brother, that's a good point!"
"I'll write down what you said tomorrow!"
After saying that, he put his arm around Jiang Bo's shoulders and clinked glasses with him.
Xu Damao tilted his head back and drank the wine, slurping the taste.
Suddenly he turned around and said to Lou Xiao'e:
"Ezi, have a drink too."
"I guarantee you've never had this wine before. It tastes really different!"
Lou Xiaoe said:
"I won't drink. I'm preparing to have a baby. What if I get pregnant this month?"
After saying that, she glanced at Jiang Bo a little embarrassedly, gently pushed Xu Damao and said:
"You should drink less too."
Xu Damao was a little embarrassed.
However, he wanted to curry favor with Jiang Bo.
And after a night of drinking and chatting.
He seemed to treat Jiang Bo as one of his own.
He put down his glass and said:
"Brother, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me."
"Your sister-in-law and I have been married for quite some time, and things have not been going smoothly."
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Jiang Bo glanced at Xu Damao, then at Lou Xiaoe, and said:
"I do know a little bit about medicine."
"Would you two like to hear it?"
Hearing him say this, Xu Damao and his wife stopped what they were doing and looked at Jiang Bo.
Lou Xiao'e was even more nervous than Xu Damao.
In this era, medicine was not as advanced as it is in later generations.
In people’s simple perception, if a couple does not have a child, it is probably because “the woman’s belly is not good enough”.
Few people think that the problem lies with men.
Lou Xiao'e has been married for quite some time.
The two never had a child.
It's inevitable that people in the yard will gossip.
Especially that silly Zhu, who often joked about this in front of the two of them.
It makes people feel so uncomfortable.
Hearing Jiang Bo's words, Lou Xiao'e quickly said:
"what is going on?"
"Jiang Bo, please tell me!"
Jiang Bo rubbed his nose with his finger, turned to Xu Damao and said:
"Let's put it this way."
"Let me ask you, have you had a lot of fights with Sha Zhu over the years?"
Xu Damao was completely confused by his questions.
What does this fight have to do with having children?
Seeing his confused look, Jiang Bo asked again:
"That guy Shazhu was quite cunning. Did he kick you a lot?"
Xu Damao was startled.
After a moment's pause, he finally realized what Jiang Bo meant.
"cant!"
Xu Damao was a little excited.
In fact, although he did not admit it, he had already started to have doubts in his heart.
and.
Lou Xiao'e has not been able to get pregnant over the years. He has studied these things privately and has some understanding of them.
I just never thought about myself.
They all asked Lou Xiao'e to go to the hospital for a check-up.
At this time, Lou Xiao'e beside her also reacted.
Her face changed immediately.
originally.
She had doubted before.
Also asked Xu Damao to check it out.
However, Xu Damao refused every time, saying that it couldn't be his problem.
Now after hearing what Jiang Bo said, she felt even more complicated.
Jiang Bo picked up Xu Damao's wrist and pretended to feel his pulse.
Then he put it down again.
He smiled and said:
"Okay, if you don't believe me, just pretend I never said that."
"Come, drink and drink."
He had read the plot of "A Courtyard Full of Birds" and knew that there was something wrong with Xu Damao.
After all, according to the plot, Lou Xiao'e gave birth to a son for Sha Zhu, while Xu Damao had no descendants until he grew old.
After he said that, Lou Xiao'e quit.
She poked Xu Damao hard with her elbow and said:
"Brother Jiang Bo, ignore him."
"You just checked Damao's pulse. How is it? Is it serious? Can it be cured?"
Jiang Bo glanced at Xu Damao and said:
"Well, you might not believe me even if I tell you. Go to the hospital when you have time."
"Let's hear what the hospital says first."
"It would be best if it can be cured. If not, come to me again."
Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao looked at each other.
What he said sounded very convincing, could it be that he also knows medical skills?
in fact.
Jiang Bo had his reasons for doing this.
When he was sorting out the items in the space, he accidentally found it in the box brought back from the enemy’s lair.
There is an ancient book.
It is an acupuncture case specifically for difficult and complicated diseases.
He has finished reading it when he had time.
However, it is not enough to just read it, you also need to practice it.
It’s a good opportunity to test the waters with Xu Damao first.
Anyway, there is no cure for his disease, otherwise he wouldn't have been childless until he got old.
If he is cured, he can also increase his skill points.
After having enough wine and food.
Jiang Bo mentioned that he still needed to clean up the house, so he left Xu's house.
Nothing else matters, he was going to replace these broken furniture anyway.
Mainly the door needs repairing.
You can't sleep with the door open at night.
Back in the house, he pulled out his toolbox, took out the tools and some parts, and started repairing the door.
He checked and found the door panel was intact.
Mainly because the hinge was broken.
Another thing is that the parts of the padlocks on both sides fell off.
This is no problem for Jiang Bo, who has manual skills.
I just found the parts and am about to reinstall the door and change the lock.
Suddenly I found someone standing at the door, and when I looked up, it was Yan Bugui.
