At Li Qin's house, she had already finished get off work and picked up her eldest grandson from daycare. Wang Ziwen should still be on her way.
She was preparing food in the kitchen while the child was playing in the yard when a knocking sound came from the door.
"Grandma, someone is knocking on the door."
"Okay, Grandma will go open the door."
He put down the vegetables he was holding and casually wiped his hands on his apron.
"Hey, why are you two coming in through the front door?"
"Sis, we just got off work and haven't gone inside yet."
"Uncle, Aunt."
"Hey, Xiaoyu, be good."
Ding Qiunan picked up Xiaoyu, who had run over, and sat him on a stool.
"You two sit down. I'm cooking right now. Why don't you eat here later?"
"No, sister, we're just here to say a few words and then we'll leave."
Just as Li Qin reached the kitchen door, she turned around and looked at Li Chu: "What?"
"Sis, are you going to the police station to report a crime?"
"You found out? I went there yesterday."
“Xu Damao was waiting for me at the door when I came back. He told me that the police took Qin Huairu away for investigation at noon today.”
"That was pretty fast," Li Qin said as she walked into the kitchen and continued preparing the dishes.
“I just want to teach her a lesson. This kind of ingrate, whoever eats your food and then bites back, needs to be taught a lesson a few times to scare her. Otherwise, she won’t know how many eyes the King of Horses has.”
Standing at the door, Li Chu turned around and glanced at his wife, who was playing with Xiao Yu. Just then, Ding Qiunan also heard her sister's words and looked up at him. The two smiled at each other.
My sister is still the same sister. You can't assume she's not the same women's team leader she used to be just because she's gotten older.
"Sis, how are you going to teach her a lesson this time?"
"Sigh, actually I didn't plan to do anything to her. She falsely accused me, so she'll just stay in the police station for a few days. If it were before, it would have been strange if I hadn't sent her to labor reform."
"Whoa, what's going on? Who's being sent for labor reform?"
Li Chu and the others didn't close the gate after they came in, and Wang Ziwen pushed his bicycle straight in.
"Brother-in-law, you're off work."
"grandfather"
When Xiaoyu saw his grandfather return, he got off Ding Qiunan's lap and ran over to hug his leg.
"Oh, my dear grandson."
Wang Ziwen parked the car against the wall and then picked up her eldest grandson.
"Xiao Chu, what were you talking about just now? Who should be sent for labor reform?"
Li Chu laughed and told her sister about reporting the incident: "Sigh, she brought this on herself."
"Hmph, this is what she brought upon herself. Doesn't she realize how many people she has harmed over the years because of false accusations? How could the government not investigate properly? She thinks she can just talk her way out of nothing and have people believe her. To be honest, it's only because she's a widow and orphan that I feel she has a hard time. Otherwise, I would have dealt with her myself, without your sister's help."
Qin Huairu simply chose the wrong time. If she had filed the complaint a few years ago, it might have really put Li Chu and the others in a lot of trouble. But now, it wouldn't have any impact at all, since everything about them can withstand scrutiny.
...
Autumn passed and winter came, and in the blink of an eye, it was February 14, 1980.
If we look at this decades from now, today will be quite a spectacle. Countless men will have their wallets emptied in a flash, all for the sake of winning a beautiful woman's smile.
Of course, there is another reason why many men are willing to do this: for a happier life at night.
But nowadays, it's just an ordinary day, at most tomorrow is New Year's Eve.
But today is no ordinary day for Li Chu's family, because Wenxuan and Wenhui are coming back today.
It's been almost half a year since they went away for military training. This is the first time the two children have been away from home for so long. We don't know if they've adapted well, but Li Chu and Ding Qiunan are having a great time together.
"Dad Chu, Mom Qiu Nan, are you done yet?"
"Coming, coming, stop calling me. You've been nagging me several times this morning, haven't you?"
Ding Qiunan, wearing a cotton-padded overcoat issued by the army, wrapped herself up like a rice dumpling, and walked out of the living room.
Under the eaves at the entrance to the living room, a graceful young woman stood there, wearing the same cotton coat as Ding Qiunan.
"Oh dear, Qiu Nan's mom, I'm just anxious. I haven't seen Sister Hui in so long."
Ding Qiunan glanced at her sideways: "Come on, Yueyue, you're the one who's anxious to see Wenxuan, and you still miss Sister Hui. Do you even believe what you're saying?"
"It's okay, who cares if others believe it or not, as long as I believe it myself." Li Chu's joking voice came from the living room.
Wang Yueyue's face turned bright red, and she stomped her foot in protest: "Qiu Nan's mother, Chu's father, if you keep doing this, I won't talk to you anymore."
Sword Comes
"That's perfect, I was just too lazy to go out anyway. Okay, I'm going back to sleep." Li Chu, who had just lifted the curtain to come out, withdrew his hand when he heard Wang Yueyue's words.
"Ah! Father Chu, I was wrong, you're the best." Wang Yueyue suddenly became anxious, lifted the curtain and grabbed Li Chu's arm.
She didn't forget to flatter Ding Qiunan again: "Qiunan's mother is the best too, I love you all!"
"Pfft..." Ding Qiunan raised her hand and poked Wang Yueyue's forehead: "I don't know who you take after, you little girl. Your parents aren't like you."
"Hehe! I was basically raised by you guys since I was little, so I definitely grew up with you and Dad Chu."
"Heh, you little rascal, you sure know how to talk!"
"Qiu Nan's mother, if you like listening to me, please tell me more."
As she spoke, she pulled Li Chu forcefully, saying, "Chu's father, let's go!"
"Come on, come on, stop pulling."
In the front yard, several dogs were squatting neatly at the gate, which stunned the three people who walked over.
"What do you mean? Are you going to pick someone up too?"
"Woof!" Maoqiu responded.
"Hey, are you guys trying to become sentient?! We can't send that many, only one can go at most."
"Woof!" The four dogs barked together.
"No, only one person can go at most, or none of them should go."
The back of the car also needs to carry the clothes and bedding for the two children; if all four of them go, there simply won't be enough room.
The four dogs looked at each other, and finally, it was Furball who stood up.
The other three barked again, unwilling to give up, but Li Chu ignored them, opened the door, and walked out.
Ding Qiunan and Wang Yueyue had been standing there smiling and watching without saying a word. Only after Li Chu left did they follow him out, and Maoqiu hurriedly followed as well.
The other three dogs didn't move, but they kept whimpering.
After they all came out, Li Chu looked at the three dogs and said, "Go back inside. We'll be back in a bit. You'll see people soon, so stop whining."
Without waiting for their reaction, he closed the door.
As soon as the car door was opened, Maoqiu jumped in, as if afraid of leaving it behind.
"Let's go!"
