Chapter Ninety-One: You Need to Know Yourself
Seeing someone make such a vicious vow to themselves for the first time, and even curse their own son, Shen Yuzhu and Zhou Congsheng, who were standing outside, exchanged an awkward glance. Both of them were thinking of turning back.
Who would have thought that Zeng Hu would come to Xiangyang Production Team without us hearing a single word?
“Zeng Gong’an, you should go back. I really don’t have any feelings for you. I just want to take good care of my children and raise them. I think Fu Gong’an is a good person. If he didn’t care about you, he wouldn’t have come to scold me. You are a good match, a perfect family.”
Shen Yuming spread his hands, his face flushed with embarrassment and anger.
She had no desire to get involved with Zeng Hu at all. If she hadn't heard that he was Xiao Zhou's comrade-in-arms, she would never have let him into her house today.
"Comrade Shen, don't be angry. I'm here to apologize. Don't feel guilty. I'm not good with words. If I've upset you, just tell me and I'll change. I know you're not looking for a partner right now, but I'll put you in the queue. Whenever you're ready to find someone, I'll give you priority to have a matchmaker come and propose."
Shen Yuming: "......."
What kind of nonsense is this?
How come I didn't notice before that this police officer Zeng was so shameless?
Shen Yuzhu pulled Zhou Congsheng and turned to leave. But after only a few steps, the courtyard gate behind them opened. They turned around and met Zeng Hu and Shen Yuming's gaze. The group was at a loss, and all they could do was remain silent amidst the wind and snow.
After staring at each other for a while, Zeng Hu chuckled and quickly left, taking the opportunity to stuff the things he had brought for Shen Yuming back to him. Shen Yuming, carrying the things, chased after him for a few steps, calling out "Hey!" several times, but he didn't stop.
Faced with Shen Yuzhu and her future brother-in-law, Shen Yuming was extremely embarrassed. In the end, it was Shen Yuzhu who spoke first.
"Sister, Zhou Congsheng just came over. These are things for the children. Let's go home first; it's so windy outside."
"well."
Shen Yuming lowered his head and hurriedly turned back, not daring to look back even once.
The little ones hadn't seen Shen Yuzhu for several days, so they all gathered around her. When Qiancheng saw that Zhou Congsheng had also come, he suddenly became clever for a moment and ran up to him, calling him "Uncle-in-law," which made Zhou Congsheng very happy. He quickly put a piece of pastry in Qiancheng's hand, and the little guy was even happier, grinning with his teeth showing.
"Xiao Zhou, drink water, drink water."
"Thank you, sister."
After hesitating for a moment, she still didn't dare to mention Zeng Hu's matter. She put those things in the cupboard, thinking that if she saw them again, or if someone went to the county town, she could have them taken to her. In any case, she dared not take any of Zeng Hu's things.
After playing at Shen Yuzhu's house for a while, the two were about to go back when they unexpectedly encountered someone driving a sled, who brought Feng Zhengyang and Wang Liping back.
There were quite a lot of things, so Zhou Congsheng helped carry them over.
When the group arrived at the educated youth settlement, Qiao Wangshu and Liang Manxiu quickly came over and helped them lie down in bed.
"How are you feeling? Any better?"
"I'm much better. Don't worry, the doctor said to rest well. It's nothing serious, so don't worry."
"Okay, okay, I'll go make you a bowl of brown sugar and egg tea right away, to warm you up properly."
Liang Manxiu didn't earn any money from this job. Her skills weren't as good as Qiao Wangshu's, so she just stood by and watched over Wang Liping, her eyes constantly scanning Zhu Qiangying and Xia Zhenzhen, scaring the two of them so much that they didn't dare to breathe.
Shen Yuzhu coughed twice, reminding Liang Manxiu.
We mustn't tell Wang Liping about this now, lest she get agitated.
As soon as they stepped out of the educated youth settlement, they saw Liang Manxiu talking to Feng Zhengyang. When Qiao Wangshu saw her come out, she carried brown sugar and eggs into the dormitory.
When we got to the door, I said, "You can tell him, but he doesn't believe me."
Feng Zhengyang's eyes were a little red, and it was clear at a glance that he was not at peace with himself.
"It's true, Zhu Qiangying was the one who did it, but Xia Zhenzhen isn't innocent either. However, it's up to you how you feel about this. We've all been busy trying to help Wang Liping. If you're going to help Xia Zhenzhen, don't blame us later if it affects your marital relationship."
“Shen Zhiqing, there’s no need to test me. I can tell what’s important and what’s not.”
"That's good."
He's a smart person; I won't waste my breath arguing with him.
As dusk fell, several people led Zhu Qiangying and Xia Zhenzhen to Lü Guangzhi's house, while Qiao Wangshu watched over Wang Liping from the educated youth dormitory.
Seeing so many people come to his house, Lü Guangzhi felt flustered. He was afraid that something might happen again, and if the commune held them accountable, their production team would forget about getting the rotating red flag for outstanding model workers next year.
"What's up?"
Shen Yuzhu looked up at him and sensed a tremor in his voice.
"Captain, you have to do justice for me and Liping! She's pregnant... It was her who almost caused my wife and her unborn child to die. Captain, if you don't give me an explanation, I'm going to appeal."
Lü Guangzhi: "........."
What kind of explanation am I supposed to give you? It wasn't me who did it, good heavens!
I used to think that this Feng Zhiqing was a smart person, but now I realize that he's a blockhead.
“Feng, calm down. This is Qiang Ying’s fault, and she admits it. She’ll accept whatever punishment or apology she wants. We’re all educated youth from all over the country, and that road isn’t yours. In the end, it was just an unintentional mistake. Can you please be lenient and not make a big deal out of it?”
“It wasn’t your wife and children who almost died, so of course you can be magnanimous. Xia Zhiqing, this has nothing to do with you, so you’d better not interfere.”
"you!"
Seeing Xia Zhenzhen's eyes gradually redden, Feng Zhengyang felt no pang of sympathy. Thinking back to the events of yesterday, Wang Liping's pale face and the blood flowing from her body, his heart ached terribly.
Even though this marriage wasn't what he wanted at the beginning, now that he's married, he has to be responsible for his wife and children.
They deserve justice.
“What Xia said makes sense. We can understand that Feng is angry, but we can’t let it escalate. Otherwise, our production team’s reputation will be ruined. Really, I really hope you educated youth can calm down. If this were an educated youth from another production team, you would have been scolded countless times by now.”
Everyone: "..."
Lu Guangzhi's voice grew louder and louder, and his anger intensified, causing Shen Yuzhu's heart to tremble.
In the past six months, she noticed that Lu Guangzhi had a lot more gray hair.
"Feng, I'm so sorry, I'm really so sorry. I'll pay for it, I'll apologize to Wang, I really didn't mean it, I..."
“If you’re going to admit your mistake, then admit it properly. Tell Feng Zhengyang the same things you were arrogant about before. Don’t just say it wasn’t intentional and then pretend it wasn’t. You need to be clear about some things.”
As Shen Yuzhu spoke, she patted her pocket. Zhu Qiangying's face turned pale instantly, she swayed, and her eyes involuntarily turned towards the door.
