Chapter 155: Did she go out to have an affair with a strange man?
As the night grew darker, people in the 1970s didn't have much of a nightlife and would prepare to go to bed around eight or nine o'clock in the evening.
Originally, Chaochao and Yueyue were both lying in bed listening to Jiang Tang telling stories, yawning and dazed. It was already very late to be out tonight.
Jiang Tang and Fu Sinian planned to take the children home to sleep, but some people didn't want to separate and wanted to continue playing.
"Lao Lei, are you really going back to bed? Can't you play for a while? I'm not sleepy yet."
"Lao Lei, why don't you take me to Yueyue's house to sleep? I don't want to be separated from Chaochao and Yueyue. I know they have two rooms at home, and I can sleep with Chaochao and Yueyue."
"Lao Lei, if all else fails, bring Yueyue back and make her my sister. Bring her back to our home."
This is the first time I've seen someone say something so blatantly by a child in front of his biological parents.
And there is the old Lei who is called out over and over again. Even Chief He doesn't dare to call Political Commissar Lei like that. Only the "lawless" Lei Xiaobing can call him that unscrupulously, and Political Commissar Lei is not angry at all.
Even Jiang Tang and Fu Sinian, who were listening at the side, were a little frightened.
Political Commissar Lei knows Lei Xiaobing very well. This child has been imaginative and talkative since he was young. He grew up alone in a room, but no one knows why he has such a developed talent for language.
It's completely useless to reason with such a clever child.
Political Commissar Lei had the simplest and most direct method. He picked up Lei Xiaobing and held him in his arms. Just one word: go.
"Captain Fu, Comrade Jiang, the soldier and I are going home. You should go back early too."
"Okay, Political Commissar Lei."
Lei Xiaobing was carried away by Political Commissar Lei. He lay on his father's shoulder and shouted at Chaochao and Yueyue, "Chaochao, Yueyue, let's go to the Red Education Class together tomorrow... Oh, no, tomorrow is the weekend, we can have a day off... Chaochao, Yueyue, I will come to play with you tomorrow. You have to get up early. You can't sleep in even if it's the weekend. We have to play all day long - um!"
Lei Xiaobing's incessant chattering mouth was finally covered by his father's hand and the microphone was manually muted.
Even Political Commissar Lei sometimes felt that his son talked too much, which gave him a headache and was a bit embarrassing.
"Xiaobing, let's make a deal. If there are outsiders around in the future, you are not allowed to call me Lao Lei. You have to call me Dad."
"I get it, Lao Lei. You are Lao Lei and I am Xiao Lei, that's right. Do you think Lao Lei sounds bad? Lao Lei, it's okay. When I get older, people will also call me Lao Lei..."
Lei Xiaobing patted Political Commissar Lei's shoulder in a very professional manner.
Political Commissar Lei: Forget it, let’s just turn off the microphone again.
After the noisy Lei Xiaobing left, Yueyue covered her mouth with her hands and yawned. Fu Sinian saw that his little girl was sleepy, so he picked her up. Yueyue's body was soft, and she lay on Fu Sinian's shoulder with her eyes closed.
"Yueyue and Chaochao are both sleepy, let's go home quickly——"
As Jiang Tang was speaking, he finally caught a glimpse of a figure walking into the compound from the corner of his eye. It was Huang Yiyi who had returned from working overtime.
Jiang Tang had been waiting for Huang Yiyi all night, and immediately handed Chao Chao and Yue Yue to Fu Sinian. "Sinian, take the children back first. I want to talk to Huang Yiyi."
Chao Chao took Fu Sinian's hand and said, "Dad, I'm sleepy."
"Okay, let's go home and sleep now."
Fu Sinian left first with the two cubs. Jiang Tang walked to Huang Yiyi and called out.
"Yiyi."
Huang Yiyi was rubbing her eyes tiredly. She didn't see who the person was at first, but only recognized Jiang Tang when he got closer.
Seeing it was Jiang Tang, she perked up and smiled, "Jiang Tang, it's so late, why are you still outside?"
"I'm taking the kids out for a walk. How about you? Did you just get back from the research group? Is work that busy?"
"Well, we have a new task recently, and Team Leader Song and everyone else want to get results as soon as possible. Not only me, but everyone in our team is working overtime." Huang Yiyi's eyes brightened and she smiled. "Although it's tiring, it feels really good to work together with everyone and accomplish something together. And what we're doing is related to national development, which makes me very proud."
"Yiyi, no matter how busy you are, you should take care of your health. Don't burn yourself out, or you'll end up losing more than you gain." Jiang Tang was concerned about Huang Yiyi and said, "Yiyi, when you go to work tomorrow, please give Comrade Song a message for me."
"What are you talking about?"
"Just say you've already set him free, and let him get started."
Huang Yiyi couldn't understand Jiang Tang's incoherent words. She found it very strange and incomprehensible.
Jiang Tang smiled and said, "Yiyi, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Comrade Song will understand after listening to it."
Huang Yiyi was a very sensible person. Seeing that Jiang Tang didn't explain in detail, she didn't ask any more questions and agreed, "Jiang Tang, don't worry, I will definitely convey your message."
"Yiyi, thank you. Go home and have some rest. Go to bed early. Good night."
"Good night to you too."
After separating from Jiang Tang, Huang Yiyi walked back to their family quarters. Worried that her late return and the noise would wake up the people in the house, she gently opened the door.
Unexpectedly, just as Huang Yiyi stepped in, a porcelain bowl flew over and hit her feet.
With a loud crash, the porcelain bowl shattered all over the floor.
Li Guihua's sarcastic voice followed, "Huang Yiyi, you still remember to come back? Look at what time it is. What kind of wife would stay out at this time? Who knows if you've been out cheating on a man?"
The good mood Huang Yiyi had when she saw Jiang Tang was gone, and what was left was an endless surge of fatigue.
She explained helplessly, "Mom, didn't I tell you when I came to deliver lunch at noon that I have to work overtime every day recently. I'm in the army all the time, so I don't have to worry about what you said."
"Work, work, what's work? Huang Yiyi, do you think you're so great now that you have a job? You can turn the world upside down? Doesn't my son have a job? You are where you are today because of my son's hard-earned money. Otherwise, how could you have a good life? You keep talking about working overtime, leaving home early and coming back late every day. Has anyone seen you working overtime? Even if you have a man hidden outside, we don't know!"
"Mom, I really didn't... I'm in the research group, and my colleagues can prove it for me." Huang Yiyi explained helplessly and powerlessly.
Li Guihua continued to accuse sharply, "Maybe your wild man is from some group, and you two are hooking up and becoming an adulterer, hiding it from my son!"
The words "adulterer" and "adulterous wife" were spoken, like a sharp arrow piercing Huang Yiyi, making her face pale and bloodless, and her lips trembled slightly.
