Chapter 82: Alcohol is a poisonous potion that penetrates the gut, while lust is a steel knife that cuts to the bone.

Xiao Xian guessed that it was Xu Damao's doing, that grandson.
Originally, because of getting married, I didn't have time to deal with him. I didn't expect that he still had a thief's heart and caused trouble for me.
贾张氏听了曾小贤的话，立刻将矛头转向了自己的儿媳妇呵问道。
“到底是哪个野男人给你买的馒头你倒是说啊。”
Qin Huiru definitely dare not say Xu Damao's name. Everyone in the courtyard knows who Xu Damao is. How could he possibly spend money to treat someone without any benefit?
Isn't this basically confessing? Can only stutter and can't say a word for a long time.
Jia Zhangshi raised her hand to strike, but was stopped by Yi Zhonghai.
At this moment, Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't bear it and scolded, saying,
"Jia Zhangshi, put away your feudal ethics that feed on people. It is now a new society, a new morality."
Your son is already dead. Why should the widow observe mourning for your son?
Qin Hairu can find whoever she wants. What does it have to do with you?
If you dare to say such nonsense again, I will straighten you out, and the party and the people will not let you off the hook either.
"As a feudal remnant like you, you must accept the iron fist of authoritarian rule and start over."
"When Zeng Xiaoxian raised the stakes like this, Jia Zhang immediately turned into a frightened quail, no longer daring to cause trouble."
曾小贤得理不饶人接着说道。
“你们家里的事，你们关起门来自己解决，但是你污蔑我搞破鞋的事，今天必须有个说法。
Either apologize in public, or hand over your feudal remnants for judgment by the people.
Even one big brother advised Jia and Zhang to apologize to Zeng Xiaoxian, quickly bury this matter, otherwise, no matter how it continues to escalate, Jia and Zhang are really likely to go to jail.
Finally, Jia Zhang apologized to Zeng Xiaoxian hesitantly.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have defamed you."
Although the voice was as small as a mosquito, Zeng Xiaoxian didn't intend to make things difficult for her anymore. He turned around and left, returning to his own room.
Jiazhang was also helped up and went back to the room. Qinhua Ru silently followed behind, and this time it was impossible to wash away the blame.
Even if the "adulterer" is not a fool, there must be other men involved, otherwise it cannot explain the origin of the steamed buns and vegetables with white faces.
Maybe there will even be a person with good intentions who goes to the cafeteria to ask who paid for the meal that day.
Of course, as Xiaoxian said, she is just a woman whose husband died, and we cannot impose feudal ethics on widows to demand their chastity.
Not seeing Jia Zhang's family means they are acquiescent.
When he returned home, Qin Jingru kept comforting Zeng Xiaoxian not to be angry.
But Zeng Xiaoxian has traveled through so many worlds, and this is the first time he has been falsely accused of being promiscuous. It is intolerable.
The problem is not that it was really messed up, but that it didn't happen at all.
Today's event is not entirely bad either, at least he gave Jia Zhangshi, that shrew, a good slap in the face to vent his anger.
和贾家这个吸血虫算是斩断了亲戚情分。只要这贾家人还要一点脸，也不好意思再缠着秦京茹了。
当然这件事也不能这么算了，始作俑者还是许大茂，有千日做贼，没有千日防贼的道理。
It seems that I will have to find an opportunity to get rid of this guy in the next few days.
Xu Damao is easy to solve. He is the projectionist in the factory, and this guy is good at socializing. He is a guy who likes to please the leaders and knows how to handle things.
In a few days, the factory director is going to invite the leaders of relevant units to have a meal, and has already informed Zeng Xiaoxian to prepare the food.
Xu Damao will definitely come over to accompany the wine and take advantage of a free meal, just like last time.
Out of respect for Xu Damao's father-in-law, the factory director won't directly chase him away, but will let him sit down and have a drink.
Unfortunately, Xu Damao has extremely poor alcohol tolerance and likes to encourage drinking. Often, before the leader gets drunk, he is already lying down.
And it is understandable that accidents can happen when someone is drunk.
On Friday, as expected, the leader treated and asked Shazhu to prepare a few main dishes.
Zeng Xiaoxian quickly stir-fried several dishes and delegated the finishing work to his apprentice, Mahua.
Except for a few secret Tan family dishes, he basically entrusted all his cooking skills to Mahua, and even to rapidly enhance his cooking skills,
Stamina training was also assigned to Maw Hua to improve his physical fitness.
Besides, the factory canteen provided ample food supply so Maw Hua never went hungry. If he got hungry, he just ate. It saved him the trouble of sneaking around for food.
Mahua is confident that their master wants to leave early, so they ensure that everything is arranged clearly and reassure the master to be at ease.
Zeng Xiaoxian rode his bicycle back to the quadrangle courtyard, needing an alibi.
He has already informed Qin Jingru in advance that he will visit the deaf old lady tonight, after all, she is the oldest and widowed person in the courtyard.
Before, it was all taken care of by Grandpa and Shazhu, as well as Lou Xiaoe. Now Shazhu has been replaced by Zeng Xiaoxian, so the frequency of taking care of the elderly has decreased.
But it is not completely ignoring it, after all, he is one of the few old people in the original who genuinely cares for Silly Pig.
If it weren't for the deaf old lady, Silly Zhu and Luo Xiao'e wouldn't be able to be together, Silly Zhu would really be ruined by Qin Huairu.
The deaf old lady is still very happy when Shazhu and Qinjingru come to visit her with rice, noodles, and vegetables.
Recently, Shazhu has visited her less often, but the old lady can understand.
After all, Shazhu has already married and his energy is focused on his family. It's already great that he can bring his wife to deliver meals and groceries.
In the banquet room of the factory canteen, the wine has already gone through three rounds and the dishes have tasted five flavors.
Xu Damao really invited himself in, and using the excuse of showing a movie, he managed to infiltrate the dinner table. He held up his glass and said to the leaders present:
"Dear leaders, let me introduce myself, I am Xu Damao,
"There are two rules to follow when toasting to leaders."
"Oh, what are the two rules?"
Director Yang adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and curiously looked at Xu Damao as he asked.
"Those two rules are 'one big three small,'
'two fives ten.'
"What does 'one big three small' mean?"
Vice Factory Director Li asked curiously.
"This 'one big' means our factory's Director Yang is the biggest."
"Director Yang is a big shot in our steel mill."
"So when I drink with him, if Director Yang drinks one glass, then I, the youngest one, have to drink three glasses."
Xu Damao said while extending three fingers.
"Oh? What if I have three drinks?"
Vice Director Li asked with a smile again.
"Hehe, if the leader has three drinks,
then I, as a small person, would have to have nine drinks."
Xu Damao gestured with his hand to represent the number nine.
"Haha, Xu Damao, I love hearing your words."
"At this dining table, the point is to drink heartily, enjoying the pleasures of life."
"Hahaha, today, all of us, big and small, are drinking together for a good time."
The heads of various departments in the private room were also inspired by Xu Damao's words.
Seeing the leaders becoming so excited, Xu Damao quickly picked up his own cup and took a sip.
Then, with his cup raised, he clinked glasses with the leaders one by one.
When the directors saw Xu Damao toasting, they also picked up their glasses and began drinking heavily.
With each glass of wine downed one after another, Xu Damao, who had never had a strong tolerance for alcohol, was already getting dizzy and stumbling under the table.
