She leaned against the wall of her house and listened for a while, but there was no movement. She was really sleepy and hungry, so she went back to her room to sleep.

Early in the morning, the captain's gong and drum sounded. There would be a members' meeting this morning, and the target was a bunch of gossips.

Led by Jiang Hongmei, a group of people with gossip-mongering labels on their chests stood in a straight line, with their heads down and looking at their toes.

Qi Yupeng first announced the matter of this individual's gossip at the meeting, and then asked them to review it one by one.

The first person to make a self-reflection was Tao Xiaofeng, and she was the most serious about it. She was severely scolded by her mother-in-law when she got home last night, and her husband also scolded her for being brainless and for following others in gossiping and being used as a weapon.

She really regretted her past actions. Why did she hang out with people like Sun Xiufang?

This reputation is ruined.

Although Chen Qiuxiang and Jiang Hongmei, who came next to review, were perfunctory, at least they had an attitude.

Sun Xiufang was stubborn and refused to admit her mistake. She was really distressed. She lost work points and still had to make a self-examination. Why?

But the moment she raised her head, she saw her man with a bruised face and nose, surrounded by Qi Shaoqiang, Liu Lixin and others.

Qi Shaoqiang's eyes were like a knife. Zhuang Daqiang knelt down and begged for mercy, "I was wrong, I was wrong. I will never do it again."

Qi Shaoqiang smiled but his heart was not smiling, his hands did not retract at all. On the surface, it seemed that he lifted Zhuang Daqiang up, but in fact he pinched him so hard that his face turned pale and his bones crackled. The sound gave Liu Lixin goosebumps.

Last night, Qi Shaoqiang found me and specifically asked about what happened to his wife during the day.

Liu Lixin didn't dare to lie and told everything. Qi Shaoqiang asked him for a picture of the human meridians drawn by his grandfather. When he left, his face looked like a living Yan Wang, which was very attractive.

Sure enough, Zhuang Daqiang showed up early this morning with a pale face, and for the first time ever, he arrived at work early.

"Uncle Daqiang, you must be confused. Why are you kneeling? This is not popular nowadays. Others might think you are the master." Qi Shaoqiang smiled but his eyes did not reach his eyes, which made Zhuang Daqiang shiver again.

He really didn't want to go through the pain of last night again. He was in severe pain all over, but when he woke up in the morning, there was no scar at all.

"Shao Qiang, I'm sorry. Your aunt is the same. She can't control her big mouth. She will definitely drag her to your house to apologize to your wife. Please stop hitting her. It hurts too much."

"Uncle Daqiang, you are talking nonsense. When did I hit you?"

Qi Shaoqiang gave him a look, and Zhuang Daqiang was startled. "No, no, you didn't hit me. I fell down yesterday."

"You damn bitch, what are you doing with your eyes wide open? Why don't you reflect on yourself right now?"

Zhuang Daqiang shouted at Sun Xiufang who was standing on the stage. Sun Xiufang shrank her head but finally made a self-criticism honestly.

Jiang Li was squeezed in the crowd and also heard it. She suddenly stood on tiptoe and whispered to Qi Shaoqiang, "Thank you for helping me vent my anger."

A warm fragrance wafted over his face. Jiang Li's lips were close to Qi Shaoqiang's face in an instant. The soft touch almost made him lose his cool expression. He lowered his head to look into Jiang Li's sparkling eyes and said, "You're still thanking me."

Jiang Li smiled with her eyes crooked, and pulled the corner of his clothes, "Yes, you are too mean. You are my man, it is my duty to protect you."

Seeing her smile, Qi Shaoqiang's depression from the past two days mostly dissipated. He turned his head away and smiled unconsciously.

The three words "man" kept echoing in his mind, and Qi Shaoqiang's mouth was always curled up.

After the meeting, Qi Shaoqiang returned home and prepared to go to class. Jiang Li was there packing the fabric for making hair ties. Then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she said to Qi Shaoqiang, "By the way, I went to the black market to make money yesterday!"

She was very proud, "Guess how much you made?"

Qi Shaoqiang shook his head.

Jiang Li took two steps forward. "That's seven dollars. I never thought I could make hair bands and sell them. Didn't you ask me what I was doing last night?"

Jiang Li held her face which was a little hot due to excitement, "I just made hair bands to sell. It was my first time, and I was afraid that I would not be able to sell them and be embarrassed, so I didn't dare to tell you."

She took out a few bills and waved them in front of Qi Shaoqiang, "Here, here's two dollars for pocket money," looking as proud as a rooster strolling around.

Qi Shaoqiang's eyes were so gentle that tears came out of them. He took two steps forward and encircled her in his arms. His big, bony hands firmly grasped the back of Jiang Li's head. "Your Lizi has made progress. You can earn money for your pocket money."

Listening to Qi Shaoqiang's compliments, his breath evenly breathing above her head, Jiang Li felt a little embarrassed, and dived into Qi Shaoqiang's arms, rubbing against him, and said in a muffled voice, "I'll give you pocket money when I make money back."

The sudden touch made Qi Shaoqiang's whole body stiffen. Jiang Li only felt that his breathing became much faster. Then the arms behind him suddenly tightened and his soft lips moved closer. Qi Shaoqiang kissed her passionately and possessively.

The two kissed for a long time, and when the pendulum struck seven, Qi Shaoqiang reluctantly let her go, saying meaningfully, "Li Zi, is your thing still there?"

Jiang Li's face turned red and she shook her head.

"Come back early in the evening."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

Qi Shaoqiang rode out of the door, and Jiang Li watched him go reluctantly.

It's strange. It's only been a few days and I feel reluctant to part with him. What's wrong with me?

Jiang Li, cheer up, your social media career has just begun, so keep working hard.

"Pear, here I come!"

Qin Xiaoting was riding a bicycle and waving at Jiang Li from a distance.

Qin Xiaoting's cycling skills have improved by leaps and bounds recently. She took the initiative to pick up Jiang Li and see if she would run into Liu Lixin by chance.

The Qi family has only one bicycle, which was Jiang Li's betrothal gift. Qi Shaoqiang rides it most of the time during class, and sometimes he takes the car.

As soon as Qin Xiaoting arrived, she was greeted by Chen Xianyun, "Xiaoting, educated youth, have you had breakfast? If not, have something to eat at home. Auntie made some buns."

The family ate half of the remaining fish last night, and Chen Xianyun made sauerkraut fish dumplings with the rest, which were soaked in well water and eaten in the morning without going bad.

Qin Xiaoting was very excited. "Pickled fish buns? I haven't eaten them yet! Auntie, give me one."

Chen Xianyun placed a layer of steaming buns in front of the two of them and gave one of them a plate of spicy vinegar.

Jiang Li likes spicy food. Although there are chili peppers in the sauerkraut fish buns, she still wants to add a little more chili to make it taste better.

Qin Xiaoting took a bite of the snow-white and soft fish bun. The bun was soft, and the fish meat was incredibly tender. The sour and spicy taste with the rich freshness of the fish conquered her taste buds at once.

"Auntie, your cooking skills are amazing. You should open a bun shop!"

Qin Xiaoting said this sincerely. The buns she used to make at the bun shop upstairs were not so delicious.
