Aunt Zhang was slightly stunned: "Lu Xuan didn't tell you?"
"No details were given, and I don't know what exactly happened."
Aunt Zhang realized that she seemed to be wrong. She met Chen Wu's sincere gaze and sighed...
"This matter is not complicated. A few years ago, an old man died in Laoya Village. Lu Xuan had beaten him the day before. Everyone knew about it. When someone called the police, he was the first person they suspected."
"Plus, the previous people were eager to close the case, so they arrested him without any clear reason. If your village captain hadn't used his connections to find Lao Tong, and Lao Tong hadn't intervened in the matter and re-investigated it, the old man probably couldn't stand the village's abuse of him. Plus, it happened that he was being investigated for his class background and the red armbands, so he committed suicide."
"If it weren't for the reinvestigation, this hat would have been stuck on his head for the rest of his life."
"But this matter involves Lu Ye's privacy. I guess that's why he didn't tell you."
Aunt Zhang didn't want to explain it to her in detail and changed the subject.
We had lunch at Tong's house, and Cheng Baixue and Cheng Ye were also there.
Cheng Baixue on the opposite side had her eyes glued to Lu Ye, which made him feel uneasy. Unfortunately, his wife was not there. Lu Ye lowered his head and focused on eating, and finished first.
Just as he was thinking about how to leave, Manman in the next room cried out. As soon as the cry came out, Lu Ye stood up hurriedly: "Lu Xiaoniao is awake, I'll go hold her."
Having said that, the man hurried away.
He went out to the next door and picked up Lu Xiaoniao and teased him: "Okay, you are not ashamed of your uncle teasing you every day."
He said this happily and carried her out.
As soon as you go out.
I bumped into Cheng Baixue head-on: "I asked you how Lu Ming is doing, and you haven't answered me yet?"
Lu Ye had no expression on his face: "Crazy."
"Are you serious?" Cheng Baixue opened her eyes wide with a look of disbelief.
"It's fake." Lu Ye said, "He's already married to Tao Xing, and Tao Xing was pregnant some time ago. You're a good girl, and you can meet any man you want. Why do you have to keep an eye on him?"
After saying that, Lu Ye walked away from Cheng Baixue and carried Lu Xiaoniao.
Cheng Baixue was left there, thinking about how miserable she and Cheng Ye were when they escaped from the dilapidated little village that day, and the desperate look in Lu Ming's eyes when he looked at her, she felt indescribable discomfort.
"Tell him to write to me."
As he spoke, he took out some money from his pocket and said, "Here, give it to Lu Ming for me."
Lu Ye saw several big unity cards and thought to himself that this person had lived a good life for too long. He said coldly, "Give me the money, and I'll split it among the four of us. Anyway, I won't give it to Lu Ming."
"You!" Cheng Baixue didn't expect him to be so shameless.
…
"If you have the guts, why not go find him in our village and see if you get beaten this time?" He then held Lu Xiaoniao high up in his arms and said, "Beat them out! Right, Lu Xiaoniao?"
Cheng Baixue was so angry that her face turned red: "Lu Ming is not such a shameless brother as you! How can you be so heartless and ungrateful? You don't even help your own brother with his affairs."
When Chen Wu came out, she happened to hear Cheng Baixue's words.
I thought to myself that this young lady really doesn't know the sufferings of the world. Could it be that the more she can't get something, the more she wants it.
Yes, in this era, Cheng Baixue happened to catch up with her father's bright future, and everything else could satisfy him, except Lu Ming, who was taken back to Laoya Village by Tao Xing in a crazy state.
Shen Wu thought to herself and said with a smile: "Miss Cheng, give me the money and I will help you pass it on."
Cheng Baixue was slightly surprised when she heard Shen Wu's voice: "Really?"
"Do you think I look deceptive?" Chen Wu smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, then forget it. I won't help you."
Chen Wu is beautiful, and even Tao Xing has never seen anyone more beautiful than Chen Wu in this city.
It certainly doesn't seem like a scam.
Cheng Baixue handed the money to Shen Wu: "Here is a total of eighty-three, which is my pocket money this month."
"But I'm not helping you for free. You have to give me fifty dollars for your errands."
Cheng Baixue looked at Chen Wu in disbelief, thinking she was crazy. Ever since she secretly ran to Laoya Village and lost the watch her father bought her, her father had restricted her pocket money, and she didn't have that much money now.
Staring at Chen Wu, she felt angry and a little aggrieved: "I thought you were a good person! Who knew you were the same as him?"
After saying that, he left angrily and bumped into Cheng Ye again.
Even though he dodged quickly, he was still hit. Cheng Baixue's nose felt sore, and when she saw it was Cheng Ye, she slapped him on the arm.
Aunt Zhang was right behind them. Seeing this, she coughed and said, "Bai Xue, what are you doing here?"
"You are not a child anymore. You should be more sensible and stop bullying Cheng Ye."
Cheng Baixue immediately stood up and hugged Aunt Zhang: "Aunt Zhang."
After dinner, they played at Tong's house for a while, then Lu Xuan and the others said goodbye and prepared to go back. Before leaving, Aunt Zhang patted Shen Wu's hand and said, "Talk nicely, don't quarrel over some things."
Shen Wu smiled brightly: "Auntie, I know."
During their time together, she knew very well how Lu Xuan treated her.
After leaving the house, Chen Wu looked at Cheng Baixue behind her. After a moment's thought, she turned around and shouted at her, "Don't you really need to send him money? I'll give you a discount, how about half for each of us?"
Cheng Baixue's emotions, which had just calmed down, were suddenly so irritated that she stamped her feet.
Her little face turned red with anger.
Chen Wu was in such a happy mood that when she left Tong's house, Aunt Zhang stuffed her with a full red envelope before leaving.
Shen Wu opened it, examined it, and then took it for herself.
She said to her daughter, "Mom will save it for you."
"Third sister-in-law, are you sure it's not gone away while you're saving it?"
Lu Xuan coughed and said, "Shut up."
Lu Ye made a face at Lu Xiaoniao, stretched himself, and said, "You two are so boring. I miss my wife."
Xu Yin, whom Lu Ye missed.
She had just been praised at a meeting and was now being discussed for transfer to the provincial capital. Xu Yin refused without a second thought.
"I want to take root in the countryside. Nowadays, everyone is talking about going to the countryside and developing the country. I can do the same if I stay in the countryside and create value."
Xu Yin's leader laughed at this. "Xiao Xu is right. We can create value in the countryside as well. Do you think Xiao Xu caught this spy? Was he caught in the countryside?"
"If we catch this one, we can catch several more."
…
Xu Yin was not happy about being transferred to the provincial capital, and her leader didn't want to let her go either, but he spoke in high-sounding terms. There was nothing he could do but respect her idea.
After leaving Tong's house, Chen Wu went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the provincial capital. It was bigger than the one in the countryside, with a more complete range of goods and a wider variety of fabrics. She picked out a few feet of cloth and prepared to take it back to have Wang Hua make clothes for Manman.
When they walked back to the guesthouse, Chen Wu's legs were almost broken from exhaustion. She fell directly onto the bed as soon as she entered the room, lying in a spread-eagle position. Seeing this, Lu Xuan put Manman next to her.
"I'm going to take a shower and work up a sweat."
