Chapter 182 Admitting Mistakes
Zhong Li lives on the second floor of the old-style family compound, which still has red brick walls. Although it was a very good house back then, society has developed too fast and it has become an old community.
There was no lighting in the corridor and it was a little dim even in broad daylight. Zhong Li was holding her daughter's hand and going upstairs. She was distracted and almost fell.
Yi Mincheng quickly supported her: "Be careful."
"Mom, are you okay?" Yi Shu asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Zhong Li patted the dust on her trouser legs and said, "Let's go."
"It's really bad that there is no light in the corridor. I'm going to take a day off tomorrow and I'll go buy a light bulb and install it." Yi Mincheng touched the wall and said.
Yi Mincheng has mentioned this several times, but Zhong Li always said it was unnecessary. They were about to buy a new house and move away, so there was no need to make trouble.
This time Zhong Li didn't say anything, but Yi Mincheng was happy. Installing a light in the corridor would be convenient for both himself and others.
Yi Mincheng is usually busy with work, but as soon as he gets home, he takes care of all the big and small things at home.
Zhong Li's house has a one-bedroom, two-living room layout. The living room is not big, and there are two bedrooms. This is because Yi Mincheng's father had not retired at that time and was still in the public security system, so the unit made an exception and allocated this house to Yi Mincheng.
"I'll go cook." Yi Mincheng put down his bag and went into the kitchen.
Yi Shu turned on the TV and watched it seriously. Zhong Li sat on the sofa and tears came down unconsciously.
Afraid of being discovered, she quickly took a piece of paper and wiped it. She has a husband, a daughter, and a home. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?
"It's time to eat. Steamed yellow snapper, choy sum with oyster sauce, and seaweed egg drop soup." Yi Mincheng, wearing an apron, brought out the dishes one by one.
Yi Shu took the initiative to get the bowls and chopsticks and put them on the table. Zhong Li went to serve the rice. After the meal, Yi Mincheng rushed to wash the dishes.
"Let me do it." Zhong Li felt a little sorry.
"No need, I'll do it. I'm usually busy too. You've worked hard at home. Go sit on the sofa. I've washed the grapes. You and Shushu can eat them." Yi Mincheng smiled and pushed Zhong Li out of the kitchen.
These grapes were also bought by Yi Mincheng. They were sour and sweet, but Zhong Li was not paying attention while eating them.
At night, the couple lay in bed. Yi Mincheng put his arm around Zhong Li's shoulders and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you today? You seem absent-minded."
Zhong Li felt a little bitter in her heart. She turned her head and looked at Yi Mincheng: "Husband, go get your driver's license. After you get your driver's license, we can buy a car ourselves."
"Why are you suddenly talking about buying a car? I don't want to buy a car. I need it for work, so of course I'll drive the company car. I'm stupid." Yi Mincheng laughed, "You are a fool if you don't take advantage of a good opportunity."
"Besides, the family's money is used to buy a house. I know you want to live in a new house, and Shushu wants to live in a new house too."
Zhong Li's nose felt sore and tears immediately fell. This frightened Yi Mincheng: "Don't cry, what happened? I'm here even if the sky falls. Don't cry."
Yi Mincheng frantically wiped her tears, and Zhong Li grabbed his hand and said, "Hubby, I made a mistake, a serious mistake."
Yi Mincheng was startled: "What's wrong?"
"I lost a lot of money speculating in the stock market. I squandered all the money in the family and can no longer afford to buy a house." Zhong Li said this and cried with her eyes closed.
After a long time, Zhong Li didn't hear Yi Mincheng speak, and she didn't dare to open her eyes to look at Yi Mincheng.
"Husband, please scold me. I am stupid and greedy." Zhong Li cried sadly.
