Chapter 205 Chapter 205 Thank You Letter

Lin Yue stood up, propped up one side of the table that was broken in half, placed the half without legs on the stove next to him, then took out a pen and paper from his clothes and slapped it on the table.

In contrast to her actions was her voice, which was gentle and even smiling: "Captain Chen, I just said it before, you two smashed the furniture, and the injuries on Sister He were also caused by your fight. I just came here to mediate, you can't blame me."

Chen Deyuan's eyebrows twitched twice, but the anger in his heart disappeared immediately, and he said cheerfully: "Okay, my family is also at fault for what happened today, I will write a disclaimer, and let's just let this matter go!"

The corners of his mouth twitched up secretly, thinking that this woman was really short-sighted. She thought she could get away with it by writing a disclaimer, but she didn't know that this would just hand the evidence to them.

"Captain Chen, you must be mistaken. What disclaimer are you talking about? This matter itself has nothing to do with me. I don't need you to prove anything. It was I who came to break up the fight today. Your wife hit me on the hand and body several times. I don't want you to pay for the medical expenses, but you should at least write a letter of thanks, right? You have served here for so many years and didn't leave a good impression on the neighbors. You should at least show your appreciation before you leave. Do something good, right?"

Chen Deyuan's face turned green, and his expression was as if he had swallowed a fly. He Aini couldn't stand this humiliation, so she jumped up and cursed: "Chen Deyuan, you dare to sign! Those furnitures must be returned. If we don't let this jerk pay today, our family will have to pay for it ourselves! If you dare to agree to this jerk, I will never let you go!"

Chen Deyuan yelled, "Shut up!" He then turned to look at Lin Yue and said gloomily, "Sister Lin, you made such a big fuss in my house today, and I can't just write a 'thank you letter' to make it up. The neighbors are listening!"

Before he finished speaking, Sun Xilai's voice came from the east wall: "Captain Chen, don't be afraid, I can testify for you that it was indeed you two who had a fight and smashed everything in the house. Lin Yue came over to try to stop the fight, but he got hurt. It's okay, just write it down. If anyone doesn't believe it, tell him to come and ask me!"

He Aini picked up a stone and threw it over: "You gossipy woman, you are everywhere, what does it have to do with you!"

Sun Xilai laughed and ran away, "Oh my god, I'm freezing, come inside! Xiaolin, come to my house for dinner tonight!"

Lin Yue pursed his lips and smiled. Both of them had problems. They overestimated their popularity in the family compound. Not to mention that Sun Xilai's family was at odds with them, even the family living to the west often had conflicts with his family. His family did not maintain good relationships with the neighbors, and they had offended all the neighbors. It was considered a kindness that everyone did not come up and step on them.

However, Xihu's family went back to their hometown a few years ago and have not returned yet. The man is at the border, and there is no one next door now, otherwise they would have come out a long time ago to watch the excitement.

Chen Deyuan's face turned red and blue, and he reluctantly said, "Mrs. Lin, you can't push me to death. All the furniture in my house was borrowed from the logistics department, and we have to return it before we leave. How can we report it to you if you smash it all?"

There is a special workshop in the camp, and families can have whatever furniture they want made there. Of course, some people are reluctant to spend the money, so they can borrow some old furniture from the logistics department and return it after they are discharged. Of course, if there is any damage, they will be compensated according to the price.

Lin Yue smiled wickedly: "Oh, it seems that you two are quite good at budgeting. When you quarreled, you only took out your anger on second-hand furniture, and didn't touch your expensive items such as clothes and bedding at all!"

She did it on purpose. People like them are like tough nut to crack. No matter how much you beat or scold them, it will be useless. They will soon forget the pain once their wounds heal. Only by making them bleed heavily in money once can they truly experience the pain of cutting their skin.

Chen Deyuan gnashed his teeth in hatred. If the clothes and bedding were really damaged, it would be fine. His clothes and bedding were all very old and could not be taken away. The cost of mailing them was too high. It was not worth it. Even if they were to give them away, others might not be interested in these patched clothes. The couple was still worried about what to do these days.

Chen Deyuan's face became more and more gloomy. He couldn't accept this insincere insult. It was a pity that the couple were usually good at making trouble, but when it came to using their brains, there was nothing they could do.

He thought about it for a long time, and suddenly thought of someone. He quickly pulled He Aini over and whispered something in her ear, then shouted, "You lazy woman, the children haven't come home yet, and you don't seem to be anxious. Go and find them!"

There was a hint of resentment and jealousy on He Aini's face, but thinking of her current situation, she could only turn around and walk out reluctantly.

Just after walking a few steps outside, Lin Yue said slowly: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, your children are all at my house. They usually like to play with Lingling and the others. You are going back to your hometown soon, so let them play for a while!"

He Aini's back froze. Chen Deyuan pushed her and said hypocritically, "You can't stay out so late. It's already dark..."

Lin Yue did not stop him and smiled faintly: "That's fine. Your family is in such a mess. If you are not afraid of scaring the children, I have nothing to say. As for our business, you are not in a hurry, and neither am I. Let's talk about it after the teachers and the others come."

Chen Deyuan's movements froze for a moment, and he forced a smile, "Why are you talking about the teacher? I was just going to call the kids, how did it become about the teacher..."

Sun Xilai from the next room shouted back, "Xiao Lin, how is your discussion going? Do you need me to call the teacher?"

Chen Deyuan's forehead was almost covered with cold sweat, and he shouted in a hurry: "No, no, sister-in-law, we really have nothing to do here, and it's time for your family to eat, so don't worry about it here!"

There was a "tsk" sound from next door, and then there was silence.

He turned around to look at He Aini, who didn't know whether to leave or not, and scolded, "What are you still standing here for? Come in quickly!"

He originally wanted to make a big fuss about it and let all the neighbors hear about what Lin Yue had done, but now he found that it was useless and he didn't want to freeze in the yard anymore, so he rushed into the house first.

As soon as he entered the house, Chen Deyuan rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Look at what a fuss this is. Actually, my family has no other intentions. We just love your children and want to become in-laws! Look, even if we can't become in-laws, there is no need to make such a fuss, right!"

Lin Yue also smiled: "You have a point. Originally, my child was not blessed enough to marry into such a good family like yours. This matter was forgotten after we talked about it. But now someone wants to ruin my daughter's reputation. As a mother, I am angry. I have to vent it, right?"

He Aini said unhappily: "It's okay for you to hit people, but you can't destroy my house, right?" She was used to being arrogant, and it was rare for her to suffer losses like this.

Lin Yue sneered. Look, this man was beaten so badly by her, but he was still thinking about the damaged belongings. It turned out that only by making her lose some money could she feel heartache.

Chen Deyuan thought so too. Both of them were strong and it was just a fight. The injuries would heal quickly. However, he was about to retire and return to his hometown. He felt bad for having to pay for the furniture in the house.

He was not a good-tempered person to begin with, and the reason he was able to be patient and talk here was simply because he was worried that something might go wrong with his job after changing careers.

He held back his anger and said, "Then what do you say we should do? You know, there are rules in the army. As long as we can return all the furniture before we leave, we don't have to take a penny. It doesn't matter if there is some damage. But now that the city is broken, we can only pay according to the price. We can't accept everything. You have to show an attitude anyway."

"That's none of my business. You are all adults, not children. You are the ones who did it, so you should be willing to bear the consequences. You can't make a mistake and ask me to share the responsibility for you, right?"

He Aini was so angry that she was lying on her back. She couldn't stand this anymore and wanted to rush up and fight with Lin Yue again, but was held down by Chen Deyuan.

He said as if to compromise: "Okay, we both accept this, but we don't need to write a statement or anything, right?"

Lin Yue raised his eyebrows. "That won't work. Besides, I just said it before. I didn't ask you to write a disclaimer. You were asked to write me a thank you letter."

He Aini yelled, "Lin Yue, stop bullying me!"

"Why didn't you feel you were bullying a little girl when you splashed dirty water on her? Now you know you were bullying? It's too late! If you feel you've been wronged, you can go and ask the leader for justice. Anyway, I'm still not satisfied, so I might as well go and argue with the leader!"

She didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but she wasn't afraid if it really got to the boss. The matter was handled by giving both sides a slap on the wrist, and the money for the furniture was split equally between the two sides.

Chen Deyuan obviously thought of this, but he had another concern. The job he was originally assigned was not very good, and he had to use his connections to switch to a good unit. He was worried that this matter would be reported to his superiors, who would remember his punishment and his job would be ruined.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, picked up the paper and pen on the table, and said hatefully, "Okay, I'll write it!"

When He Aini heard what he said, she sat down on the ground and cried out loudly: "You're killing me! I won't live any longer!"

Lin Yue didn't even blink, and said with a smile: "I'll read it, and you write it.

"Today, my wife He Aini and I had a big fight over a small matter. Not only did we hurt each other, but we also broke a table and seven chairs at home... Fortunately, Comrade Lin Yue arrived in time..."

Chen Deyuan listened to her count all the household items and specifically asked him to write them all down without missing a single one. His face became darker and darker. Finally, he gritted his teeth and wrote the last sentence. The fingers holding the pen turned white from the force. He threw the pen away and gritted his teeth and said, "That's it!"

Lin Yue picked up the letter and read it carefully, then said critically, "Captain Chen, you have been a captain for so many years, how come you don't even know the most basic format of a letter? You should write 'Best regards', 'Year Month Day', and your name at the end."

Chen Deyuan's palms were almost broken by the pinching, and he finally managed to say, "Okay, I'll change it!"

After he finished, Lin Yue wanted to take out the letter but he held it tightly. Lin Yue raised his eyebrows, "Why, Captain Chen wants to check it again in person?"

Chen Deyuan tried hard not to crumple the paper, but finally let it go.

Lin Yue took out the letter, checked it again, folded it and put it away, saying with a smile: "It's well written, and your gratitude is very sincere. Well, thank you for your thank-you letter, I won't delay your dinner, bye!" After that, he walked away leisurely.

Chen Deyuan almost bit his teeth off by himself. He watched Lin Yue leave the door with red eyes, then kicked over half of the table.

He Aini, who was still sitting on the ground, got up and slapped Chen Deyuan hard on the back, scolding him, "You useless man, are you just going to let her bully our family? What's the use of you!"

Chen Deyuan slapped the man to the ground, his eyes still fixed on the door, and said angrily: "Do you think this matter is really over? Not at all! Let's wait and see!"
