Li Chunhua said in a difficult position: "Mingshan, it hasn't been a few days since you moved out. You can't be so anxious. If others have opinions about you, you should wait until they have forgotten about it before you talk about it. Also, ask your wife to come to the family compound more often these days and make friends with other military wives. Once she gets along with them and no one has opinions about you anymore, you can move back."
Oh, the most important thing is you, you can't just stare at other girls all the time, it affects them a lot. If it weren't for your uncle, who protected you, you would have been fired long ago."
"Auntie, I just looked at them twice and didn't do anything else to them, but they all acted like I raped them."
"Hey, you can't say that." Li Chunhua quickly reached out and covered his mouth to stop him from saying anything more: "Just looking at her is not enough. The most important thing is that you keep staring at her. That look must be different from ordinary eyes. Think about it, if another man kept staring at your wife, would you be willing?"
In fact, Li Mingshan also knew that it was wrong, but he was obsessed with lust and could not change it. He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't look at beautiful women. He said that just to find an excuse for his improper behavior.
If he were not bound by military regulations and laws, he would be much stronger.
"I understand, Auntie. It's this housing problem. We're working hard here, and you can ask Uncle to do his best to arrange it for us. Over there is really no place for people to live. It's small, damp, and freezing."
"I understand, I understand. I'll tell your uncle when he gets off work. But I'm telling you in advance, even if you come back, you can't live in the house you came from. I'll arrange a new one for you."
Li Mingshan has always been thinking about Xu Nuannuan and doesn't want to move to another place.
"Auntie, I'm used to living in that house. I feel comfortable living in it. If no new people move in, I'll still want to live there."
"But your wife has had a fight with someone. It's not suitable for you to live there anymore. Do you still want your wife to fight with someone again?"
Li Mingshan felt that being able to move back was the most important thing, and he didn't care about anything else, so he agreed.
After he left Commander Lu's house, he went to the apartment building where Xu Nuannuan lived. He stayed inside for a while but still didn't see Xu Nuannuan. He was discovered by Li Xiu Lian, who asked him what he was doing. He said he was going back to the old house to take a look and then ran away.
As soon as he returned to the kitchen, he was met with Zhang Yufeng's cold face. She stretched out her hand to ask for money: "You should have paid the allowance. My mother is sick. Give me 20 yuan and I will send it to her tomorrow to take her to the doctor."
Li Mingshan rolled his eyes at her and didn't bother to pay any attention: "Your mother is sick and asked her son to give her money. Why should I pay for her medical treatment? She is not my mother. I don't care."
"But she's your mother-in-law, half your mother. Can you just ignore her?"
"What's wrong with my mother-in-law? She doesn't have anyone to support me. Your brother and your younger brother are the real roots of your family. Your parents left all their property to them, so they should be the ones to take the money. As a daughter who married out, aren't you being a cheapskate by using money to pay for your mother's medical treatment?"
"But my brother and his family have no money. This twenty yuan can be considered as a loan to them. It will solve their immediate problem first. After a while, I will ask them to pay it back."
Li Mingshan almost believed it, but when he thought about how Zhang Yufeng had been asking him for money all this time, he thought this might just be a pretext she made up.
"I forgot to tell you, my parents are also sick. I sent all the money back home for their medical treatment. If you, as a daughter-in-law, have any filial piety, you should go home and take care of them."
"I, I haven't served my mother yet, I won't go back."
If she returns, won't Li Mingshan be even more confident?
"You don't take care of my mother, and you still want me to use the money to treat her. That's simply unrealistic."
"You just don't want to take it, not because you don't have money."
"I really have no money."
