Chapter 166 Why Should I Not Care?
"I'm sick!"
Old Mrs. Wu said unhappily.
You can't enjoy a good life, but you have to lie dead in the hospital!
If she wasn't worried about damaging Dabao's reputation, she would definitely criticize Wang Manzhi in public.
There was silence for a moment, and someone immediately asked, "Is he still in the hospital? Is Comrade Wang okay? Should we go check on him?"
Old Mrs. Wu moved her lips, and Wu Weimin pulled her sleeve.
"My wife is a little unwell after giving birth prematurely. She will have to stay in the hospital for a while. Thank you for your concern. Let her rest quietly for a while."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Most of those present had given birth before, some of them prematurely. To have to stay in the hospital for three days and not be able to return was definitely not a trivial matter.
But from the looks of the Wu mother and son, it was hard to tell how serious Wang Manzhi's condition was, and no one would have guessed that she had undergone surgery for postpartum hemorrhage.
Zheng Aimei naturally didn't say anything. She hoped that no one knew about it, so that people wouldn't remember this matter as soon as they saw Wu Baozhu.
“Sister-in-law, let’s go into the house first. I’ll help you clean up and bring Qiu back later.”
"Why send her back?" Old Mrs. Wu blurted out, then she thought of something and changed her words, "She should come back. How can a sister not be here when her brother is born?"
The little girl came back just in time to wash diapers. Wang Manzhi was still lying in bed. Wu Weimin had to go to work, and she really couldn't take care of it all by herself.
Old Mrs. Wu glanced at Zheng Aimei nonchalantly and said, "Four cans of milk powder at home may not be enough. We have a lot of old people and young children. What if one of us neglects Dabao?"
She already knew what Wu Baozhu had done, so she naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to take control of Zheng Aimei.
Fortunately, Dabao was fine, otherwise, regardless of whether Wu Baozhu's surname was Wu or not, she would have made a big fuss.
Zheng Aimei could only pinch her nose and admit: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely not treat Dabao badly."
It's just money, she gives it to me, just think of it as buying peace of mind.
Old Mrs. Wu finally showed off enough. She looked at the small courtyard ten meters away. Unfortunately, the man surnamed Lu was not...
Oh, look, this person is here without anyone noticing!
Old Mrs. Wu changed direction and was no longer in a hurry to go home. She couldn't even enjoy her meal unless she showed off to Lu Youyou.
Lu Youyou walked with his head down, his mind full of data.
The small-scale implementation has entered the second round. Currently, all data meet the standards. If there are no problems in the final review, it will soon be put into mass production.
This is an important step in the localization upgrade of diving equipment. The hard work during this period has finally paid off.
She met with someone from the military district today, who apologized to her on behalf of the district and explained that this was a secret project and could not be publicly recognized, but that internal honors would be recorded truthfully and that there would be no less material rewards.
Lu Youyou doesn't care about these things, she didn't want to be famous anyway.
If possible, she would like to build an aircraft carrier right now and perform a great feat, so that Gu Qingye can be promoted three levels and leave the front line, so that he will never have to go to the front line again.
Unfortunately, this is just a pipe dream. She could never dream of such a good thing.
Being able to improve diving equipment and effectively increase the survival rate of every soldier in the army is already her limit at this stage.
With her mind full of things, Lu Youyou didn't notice how many people were standing in front of her, but someone walked towards her in a swagger and stopped only when he was in front of her.
The large floral quilt in Old Lady Wu's hand was so conspicuous that Lu Youyou could see it just by raising her eyes. Above it was a smug old face with wrinkles and orange peels all over it, so ugly that it was disgusting.
She definitely didn't come here to apologize. Lu Youyou didn't want to pay any attention to her. Arguing with such a person was like talking to a cow.
Lu Youyou wanted to leave, and Old Lady Wu naturally wouldn't let her go. But she couldn't go any further, because Zhuifeng had already jumped out from the yard and stood in front of her, and Xiao Huihui also followed and stood on Zhuifeng's back, like a general leading the army to war in person.
Old Mrs. Wu had just been threatened by Xiao Huihui three days ago, and the words on her lips were immediately scared back.
Lu Youyou: "I advise you to stay away from her. Don't worry about yourself, but always care about your children."
Old Mrs. Wu hugged her grandson tighter in a panic, but still refused to admit defeat.
"What are you so proud of? You are still a chicken that doesn't lay eggs. I wonder how long you can be so carefree?"
The old woman's voice was quite loud, and Zheng Aimei, Wu Weimin, and a group of onlookers behind her all heard it.
Wu Weimin regretted not holding the person back. He thought the old lady was just showing off her grandson, but who would have thought that Lu Youyou's casual words would make the old lady so excited.
Zheng Aimei looked worried, but she was already smiling in her heart. She deserved it for not learning her lesson!
She once again despised Wu Weimin. This was Old Wu's so-called successor, who could only hide behind his mother and had no future!
Lu Youyou didn't even look at the old woman, but raised her head and looked at Wu Weimin.
"Comrade Wu Weimin, what is the crime of insulting, slandering, and spreading rumors to harm the reputation of military families?"
The onlookers’ eyes widened, wow, the show is coming, wonderful, exciting, love to watch!
Wu Weimin felt like there was something stuck in his throat. He didn't expect that he couldn't escape even from such a distance.
Lu Youyou went straight to the point and said that the old lady herself had handed over the evidence, so it was difficult for her to make excuses.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, he couldn't ignore his own mother, so he could only come out stiffly to smooth things over.
"Comrade Lu, the old lady was so happy these past two days that she didn't get enough rest. It's possible that she spoke nonsense when she wasn't paying attention. Don't mind it."
Lu Youyou raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why shouldn't I care?"
"Comrade Lu, why bother with the old man?"
"Comrade Wu, do you think I am making a fuss, or is your mother making trouble out of nothing?"
Old Mrs. Wu was not going to take it anymore. Perhaps because of her son’s support, she was very confident: “Who are you talking about? You little girl is sharp-tongued and has no manners!”
Lu Youyou looked at Wu Weimin with a smile.
"Comrade Wu, you heard it all. Your mother spread rumors about me and insulted my family for no reason. The army is a reasonable place. It doesn't matter if you don't understand what I'm saying. There will always be someone who can understand. Now, please make way. I want to go home."
Before Old Mrs. Wu could speak, Zhuifeng yelled at her a few times. The old woman almost lost her balance because of her left foot hitting her right foot. Wu Weimin was quick to hold her up.
Old Mrs. Wu was completely furious. She held the child in one hand and pointed at him with the other hand tremblingly: "Black-hearted woman, if you drop the child, I will fight you to the death!"
Unfortunately, the only response she got was Lu Youyou’s back without even turning her head.
What's the point of playing the lute to a cow? Just hit the snake at its most vulnerable part and deal with Wu Weimin directly.
Old Mrs. Wu went home angrily and took it out on Qiu Tian.
Wu Weimin didn't care at all and just focused on his own thoughts.
To be honest, he didn't want to offend Lu Youyou. He admitted that he had made a mistake before and that Gu Qingye was not marrying a vase.
The more capable Lu Youyou is, the more weight her words carry. Instead of letting her not know where to complain, it is better to make a big thing small.
"Mom, come here for a moment. I want to discuss something with you."
