Su Wanqing's beautiful face was full of worry and guilt. She pushed a pouting little boy out and said, "Hurry, say sorry to Xiao Guozi."
The little boy is Su Wanqing’s son Sun Ye.
Sun Ye clenched his fists angrily, but didn't say anything.
Jiang Yi remembered it now.
She bought a spinning top for Xiao Guozi yesterday, and he was playing with it enthusiastically in the yard this morning. Sun Ye ran over and asked why he didn't have one, and he wanted to play with it too.
The little fruit refused, so Sun Ye tried to grab it.
Sun Ye is five years old this year, one year older than Little Fruit. He is strong and sturdy. He snatched the spinning top away and pushed Little Fruit down.
Jiang Yi found out and asked him to return the spinning top to Xiao Guozi. Sun Ye said, "Uncle Lu always buys two toys, so this one must be mine."
No wonder he is so righteous.
After Sun Ye's father Sun Xiaofeng passed away, Lu Yunxiao treated him like his own son, and whenever he bought something for Xiao Guozi, he would get a share.
Lu Yunxiao accompanied Su Wanqing to the hospital to see her mother last night and did not return all night. Jiang Yiben was already angry, so she snatched the spinning top back and glared at him, "I bought this, not your Uncle Lu!"
Sun Ye burst into tears.
Lu Yunxiao and Su Wanqing happened to come back and only saw Jiang Yi snatch the spinning top, but didn't see what happened before.
Su Wanqing came up with tears in her eyes, "Jiang Yi, I know you don't like my mother and me, but you can't bully the child."
"She snatched my spinning top, snatched my spinning top!" Sun Ye cried and shouted.
If you don’t know, you would think that he was being bullied miserably.
Lu Yunxiao also frowned, "Jiang Yi, quickly return the spinning top to Xiaoye."
"This is the spinning top I bought. Why give it to him?" Jiang Yi saw the dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he hadn't slept all night. Last year, when his mother-in-law was sick, he was not so concerned. She sneered, "Like mother, like son. He always likes to steal other people's things. I think you, the father, should be given to him as a father."
"What did you say!"
Lu Yunxiao opened his eyes and said in a chilling tone, "How can you say such things casually?"
"I'm talking nonsense? You know what you're thinking."
Lu Yunxiao's expression became even colder, "You are really unreasonable!"
Looking at his cold eyes, Jiang Yi felt like her heart was cut.
She knew that Lu Yunxiao didn't love her.
Except for their wedding night, he never touched her again.
And on their wedding day, he was drunk and the two of them were caught in the act.
Who would have thought that just from that one time, it would bear small fruit.
"I'm unreasonable? Fine, I'll leave then."
After saying that, Jiang Yi picked up Xiao Guozi and rushed out of the family compound.
Because the canteen was being renovated, a tractor loaded with bricks happened to drive over. Fortunately, the driver braked quickly, and she was only scared to the point of sitting on the ground, but was not actually hit.
at this time,
Thirty years have passed.
A long time.
It seemed like the blink of an eye.
When Jiang Yi saw Su Wanqing again, his heart was still turbulent.
Su Wanqing was one of the last batch of educated youth to go to the countryside. Not long after going there, she married Battalion Commander Sun Xiaofeng, Lu Yunxiao's comrade-in-arms.
Three years ago, when the Nancheng earthquake occurred, the troops rushed to the rescue but encountered aftershocks. Before the house collapsed, Sun Xiaofeng pushed Lu Yunxiao and was crushed under the rubble. He was dead when he was found.
From then on, Lu Yunxiao regarded taking care of Su Wanqing and her son as his duty.
The year before last, the army built a new three-story building in the west yard. Lu Yunxiao was promoted to deputy regiment commander and was allocated a 60-square-meter small suite, but he didn't want it and gave it to her and her son.
Not only that, Lu Yunxiao also gave her part of his salary every month.
His salary plus various subsidies was two hundred and fifty. He gave one hundred to Jiang Yi, fifty to his mother, eighty to Su Wanqing, and kept twenty for himself.
These days, eighty yuan is equivalent to one month's salary for urban workers.
Once or twice is nothing.
But once it is given, it will take three years.
Those who don’t know would think he has another home.
At first, Jiang Yi tried hard to convince herself that it was nothing. Lu Yunxiao was just repaying his kindness to his comrades, and it was his duty to take care of the orphans and the widow.
But one time, when she went to the west courtyard to call Lu Yunxiao home for dinner, she saw him holding Su Wanqing's bleeding finger and said unhappily, "Why are you so careless?"
Su Wanqing looked up at him.
Her face was slightly red and her expression was shy.
The way they looked at each other didn't look like nothing happened.
At that moment, Jiang Yi's heart felt like it was being tightly grasped, and pain spread throughout her body.
She couldn't deceive herself any longer.
"Jiang Yi?"
At this moment, Su Wanqing couldn't help but shudder when she saw Jiang Yi staring at her coldly, but that look made her look even more pitiful.
One auntie said: "It turns out that it's just because the kids are fighting over toys. It's not a big deal. There's no need to get so angry."
We all live in the same military compound.
Basically I know them all.
Everyone thinks Jiang Yi is a bit stingy.
Don't blame others.
Su Wanqing was a widow with a child, which made her easy to arouse sympathy. In addition, she often showed small favors to her neighbors, which earned her a lot of goodwill.
At the beginning, Jiang Yi was also confused by her.
I feel sorry for her.
When Lu Yunxiao helped her, people in the hospital praised Lu Yunxiao for being selfless, loyal and a good comrade, and Jiang Yi was proud of it.
It was not until Lu Yunxiao was transferred to the Northern Military Region and was going to take Su Wanqing and her son with him that she realized how stupid she was.
At this time, Lu Yunxiao was also a little impatient, and came over to pull Jiang Yi, "It's just a small matter, come back with me."
"Is it a small matter?" Jiang Yi looked at him.
In her previous life, Jiang Yi repeatedly advised herself not to be petty and to be more generous, which led to Su Wanqing and her son infiltrating and eroding the family little by little.
If she had the chance to do it again, she would never suffer such humiliation again.
"Why didn't you ask just now? You accused me like Su Wanqing did, saying that I bullied Sun Ye? It's obviously a spinning top with a small fruit, but you insisted on asking me to give it to him? Which one is your son?!"
"Jiang Yi!" Lu Yunxiao didn't expect her to say such words in public. The veins on his forehead jumped and his eyes were filled with anger.
Some gossipy aunties seemed to have caught something and quickly pricked up their ears.
Su Wanqing wanted to say something, but just as she opened her mouth, Jiang Yi glared at her and said, "Shut up!"
Now that you've been reborn, who would give in to you?
She looked at Sun Ye and asked, "Did you snatch this spinning top from Little Fruit?"
"No! It's mine." Sun Ye said with clenched fists.
Jiang Yi knew this kid too well. He was competitive and stubborn. She then asked, "Why is it yours?"
"Mine, Mom said, all his are—"
Su Wanqing's face changed. Before Sun Ye could finish, she covered his mouth and looked at Lu Yunxiao with tears in her eyes. "I spoiled him. I will go back and teach him a lesson."
"Hey, don't go. Let the child finish speaking. The child is innocent and won't lie. Let everyone see what his gentle and virtuous mother has taught him."
Jiang Yi spoke loudly and held Su Wanqing tightly.
Lu Yunxiao grabbed her, his eyes filled with dark colors, "Jiang Yi, that's enough!"
