"Are you crazy? This is your one month's salary!" Liu Yan couldn't help but burst out shouting.
He is just a child without a father or a mother, what's the big deal?!
"Shut up!" Jiang Guoqiang roared, and the man who had always been gentle to her now had a sullen face.
Liu Yan had never seen Jiang Guoqiang look so scary before. She closed her mouth in fear and tears kept falling from her eyes.
"Captain Jiang, my child won't accept this money." Shen Li said calmly, "Xiao Hui, return the money to your Uncle Jiang."
Before Lu Minghui could make a response, Jiang Guoqiang quickly stuffed the money into Lu Minghui's trouser pocket, "Be good, boy, this money is for you to buy candy for your sister. What happened today was all my wife's fault, and you have been wronged! Good boy," Jiang Guoqiang reached out and touched Lu Minghui's head, bent down and looked at Lu Minghui, "Don't take what happened today to heart. My girlfriend said something unpleasant, but actually she just couldn't think straight. Uncle apologizes to you on her behalf..."
As he spoke, Jiang Guoqiang pulled Liu Yan's arm and said sternly, "Apologize!"
Liu Yan was so aggrieved that she shed tears, but under Jiang Guoqiang's intimidation, she had to say, "Minghui, it was my fault for what happened today. I apologize to you."
Lu Minghui pursed his lips, and just glanced at her with his dark eyes without saying anything.
"Since you've apologized, let's just leave it at that." Shen Li said, "I don't want to hear you say anything bad about my child in the future, understand?"
"I understand." Liu Yan lowered her eyes, looking extremely unhappy.
"Minghui, let's go home." Shen Li wanted to hold Lu Minghui's little hand, but when she saw that the child's thin and dark hands were still holding two big coconuts, she could only pat Lu Minghui's shoulders lightly.
Lu Minghui nodded.
"Minghui, say goodbye to Uncle Jiang." Shen Li said with a smile before leaving.
Lu Minghui pursed his lips and said, "Uncle Jiang, goodbye."
"Well, Xiao Minghui, goodbye." Jiang Guoqiang smiled with relief and waved to Lu Minghui.
The rest of the people were shocked to see this scene.
You have to know that the two children in Captain Lu's family were the most difficult to approach. The second child, needless to say, stayed at home all day and didn't like to go out. He never spoke until Shen Li came, and he actually spoke. As for the eldest child, he didn't get close to anyone on the island. He was cold and icy, like a precocious little kid, not to mention saying goodbye to anyone politely.
But after Shen Li came, the two children of the Lu family changed drastically...
Shen Li and Lu Minghui left, and Liu Yan went back home with Jiang Guoqiang. As soon as she entered the house, Liu Yan couldn't help but burst into tears, "You slapped me for that little thing and took away a month's salary..."
"What do you know? Cry, cry, cry, that's all you do!" Jiang Guoqiang shouted angrily, "Let's not talk about the fact that you were wrong from a moral point of view about what happened yesterday. You shouldn't have treated your child like that. If I hadn't come, Shen Li would have really dragged you to see the political commissar, and I would have been punished! After being punished, it would have been difficult for me to get promoted! A punishment would have ruined my career and made all my efforts go to waste, did you know that?!"
Liu Yan stood there in a daze.
"And! Did you know that Shen Li saved the commander's grandson a while ago? Now the commander and the political commissar all have a good impression of Shen Li! With this, Lu Jingchuan will also be favored by the higher-ups, and his future career will definitely be smooth sailing. If you provoke Shen Li, aren't you making enemies for me? Can you just shut up?"
Liu Yan was dumbfounded. She wiped the tears from her face and said, "I... I just said a few words to that child. Who would have thought that things would be so serious..."
"Anyway, don't mess with Shen Li anymore." Jiang Guoqiang was upset for a moment, "My work outside is hard enough, don't give me trouble!"
"Okay." Liu Yan gritted her teeth.
But she won't just let it go! Shen Li, this bitch, caused her to suffer such a huge loss and made the person who always loved her slap her in public. This matter is not over yet!
…
"Minghui, why did you hit me?" Shen Li asked seriously after taking Lu Minghui away.
“…They said that Daddy made a bet with someone else, and that Daddy was going to be fired soon,” Lu Minghui said in a muffled voice with a tense face.
놛 would never admit that 놛 beating them was also meant to protect Shen Li.
It's too embarrassing to say it out loud.
"Minghui, don't worry about what others say. They have their own mouths and you can't control them." Shen Li stopped, bent down and looked at Lu Minghui, "Don't vent your dissatisfaction by beating."
It is not a good thing for children to fight.
Lu Minghui looked at her in confusion.
"No matter what happens, using violence to solve it is the worst way." Shen Li said, "Let them say whatever they want to say, and we just live our own lives. As for your father, believe me, your father will not be fired. Our family will live very well. Do you know that?"
Her eyes are bright, clear and clean.
Such a look made Lu Minghui's originally uneasy heart gradually calm down.
It was my choice to believe her.
Lu Minghui nodded, "Yeah."
Shen Li brought Lu Minghui home, took 놛 to wash her hands, changed 놛's dirty clothes, and washed them in the washing machine.
At this time, Lu Jingchuan came back.
After the bet ended, Lu Jingchuan was in charge of the preparations for the typhoon. Although many residents near the islands were a little skeptical, he still issued an order not to allow residents to go out after two days, requiring everyone to close doors and windows and store food and water at home in advance.
A day passed in the blink of an eye and Lu Jingchuan arrived home.
"Jingchuan, I heard about the bet between you and Captain Yang." Shen Li looked at him with complicated eyes.
"Yeah." Lu Jingchuan raised his hand and pinched Shen Li's soft and pale face, which looked a little solemn.
놛I like to see the relaxed and happy expression on my wife's face, and I like to see her smile.
"Xiaoxiao, Lili, you look beautiful when you smile." Lu Jingchuan said.
"Lu Jingchuan, you trust me so much that you risk your career for a word I said." Shen Li's eyes were a little sour and her voice was muffled.
"We are husband and wife, and husband and wife should trust each other, right?" Lu Jingchuan smiled. "Besides, I believe my wife is my lucky star, and I will never go wrong if I listen to her."
