My courtyard shelter

After leaving the audition hotel, Xiao Lentil was depressed all the way, keeping her mouth shut and not saying a word.

In the end, the little girl still accepted the villain role. This was an opportunity she had worked hard for a long time to get, and it would be a pity to give it up like this.

Xu Dong also did not speak the whole time.

Xiao Lentil has not suffered much since she was a child. This time, she suffered a little setback, which does not seem to be a bad thing. People cannot have a smooth life.

As soon as the three returned to the manor, Lao Fang came over to report: "Lao Xu, there are guests at home, and they have been waiting for you for more than an hour."

"Who is it? Why didn't you call me?"

Xu Dong asked in confusion.

"It's Li Tao's mother. She said she was not in a hurry and stopped me from calling you."

Lao Fang replied.

"Do you know what it is?"

Xu Dong asked immediately.

Old Fang shook his head: "I don't know. It seems that it is not a small matter. I can't ask too much."

"Okay, I'll go in and take a look."

Xu Dong waved his hand.

In the living room, Yang Lina was chatting with Sister Du. This was Director Li's widow. She moved here more than ten years ago and lived in the community opposite their home. The two families had frequent daily exchanges.

Especially every year during the New Year's Eve dinner, the old Xu family would invite the other party to come and get together.

Five years ago, Li Tao officially graduated and was subsequently arranged to work in Xinke Haizao. Including the subsequent marriage, almost all of it was arranged by Xu Dong.

"Ahem..."

"Old Xu, you are back at the right time. Sister Du needs your help." Yang Lina stood up and explained.

Sister Du wiped her tears: "Old Xu, I really have to trouble you this time."

"What happened?"

Xu Dong hurriedly asked with concern.

He probably guessed in his heart that it must be Li Tao's side who caused trouble. Over the years, although Li Tao has been relatively well-behaved, he has endless small problems.

I have even been arrested several times.

If it weren't for his face, I would have been put in jail long ago.

Sister Du was immediately excited and said, "It was that bastard Li Tao. He didn't learn good things outside, but learned bad things. He secretly kept a foreign wife. I don't know what kind of magic potion he was fed. He actually wanted to divorce He Rong and even didn't want the two children."

He Rong is Li Tao's wife.

Speaking of which, the two are still colleagues.

"When did it happen?"

Xu Dong couldn't help but frowned.

What he hates most is this kind of ungrateful and heartless man who abandons his wife and children.

"It happened last month. Originally, family disgrace should not be made public. I persuaded him privately for several days, hoping that he would turn back in time.

I didn't expect that he was a bastard who was determined to divorce. Now I really have no choice."

Sister Du covered her mouth and choked.

Xu Dong immediately slammed the table: "It's outrageous. Where is he now? Is he at home?"

"Not at home, at the foreign woman's place. To be honest, he hasn't been home for almost half a month, and he hasn't gone to work either."

"Do you have a specific address?"

Xu Dong didn't waste words.

Sister Du quickly took out a note from her pocket: "We rented a house on Huaihe Road and have been living together for more than half a year."

"Sister Du, don't worry about this matter, let me handle it!"

Xu Dong said without hesitation.

"Old Xu, don't do anything stupid..."

Yang Lina quickly reminded him.

Xu Dong nodded: "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

"Old Xu, thank you."

Sister Du bowed on the spot.

Yang Lina quickly helped the other person up.

Xu Dong sighed deeply: "Why are you being polite to me? I promised Lao Li that I would take good care of you. A man should not break his promise.

In fact, over the years, I have always treated Li Tao as my godson and hoped that he would make progress. It is my fault that I did not educate him well. I feel ashamed of Lao Li!"

"Lao Xu, please don't say that. In fact, the responsibility is mainly on me. I should have listened to you and sent him to the army directly. I spoiled him."

Sister Du felt very guilty.

Xu Dong waved his hand. It was meaningless to say more: "Let's not talk about this. What's the situation with He Rong? Is there any room for redemption?"

"He Rong took the two children back to her parents' home. I asked her privately. She is willing to give Li Tao another chance, but the premise is that he must completely break up with that foreign woman and write a letter of guarantee."

Sister Du answered in detail.

In fact, she took the initiative to conceal some of the situation. There is a reason why He Rong is willing to compromise.

In order to win back her daughter-in-law's affection and to express her sincerity, she has transferred her house, including all her savings, to the other party's name.

This earned the other party's temporary forgiveness.

"It's good that it can be saved, otherwise this family will fall apart." Yang Lina echoed.

Sister Du smiled bitterly, and then said goodbye. Yang Lina personally sent the other party back home, and Xu's mother helped to get some dried meat.

People are iron, and rice is steel!

The more times like this, the more you should pay attention to your health.

Xu Dong was not idle either. He called his second son on the spot. Erbao is now the director of the branch, and he can help investigate this matter.

...

It was soon time to get off work, and Erbao brought back all the information he had investigated. He was a little surprised that his childhood friend had cheated on him.

Although this kind of thing is not uncommon, it was the first time that it happened to an acquaintance.

Xu Dong took the information and looked through it carefully.

Erbao took the opportunity to ask: "Dad, how are you going to deal with this matter? Do you want my help?"

"How do you want to help?"

Xu Dong asked.

"That foreign woman is a stowaway. I can take people to arrest her and then send her back to America. This way, we can solve the problem once and for all."

Erbao answered immediately.

Xu Dong shook his head: "Your trick is only a temporary solution. The root of the problem lies with Li Tao. Without the foreign woman, there will be others."

"Why don't we also lock Li Tao up for two days to make him remember it?" Erbao suggested again.

"It's useless. He is now overwhelmed by the so-called love. What you do will only arouse his rebellious psychology. If he insists on going back to America with the foreign woman, it will be troublesome."

"What are you afraid of? Let him suffer a little."

Erbao said disdainfully.

From today on, he will cut off all ties with the other party. It's better not to have such irresponsible friends!

"No, America has been too turbulent in the past two years. If Li Tao goes there, his life will definitely be in danger. Your aunt Li has only one son. You can't let her send her son away, and you can't let the two children be without a father."

Xu Dong said seriously.

"What should I do?"

"Don't interfere in this matter. I will handle it myself. No matter what, I will teach Li Tao a profound lesson this time."

"If you need help, I will be there at any time."

Erbao nodded.
