Chapter 11 There are many people who miss him
A burst of laughter came from the crowd, and Hu Lili's face turned red all the way to her ears.
She glanced at the people around her, made up her mind, and decided to teach Su Tang a lesson today.
"Su Tang, if you don't want to live anymore, why are you dragging Lu Xiao along?"
"Do you know how many years he spent in the Northwest to get to where he is now?"
Hearing Hu Lili change the subject, Su Tang raised his eyebrows and tilted his head.
"Hu Lili, what are you talking about?"
"Aren't you talking about this book?"
Su Tang looked like he was enjoying the fun and even shook the book in his hand.
Seeing this, Hu Lili glared at Su Tang, then snorted coldly: "Don't be complacent, I'll find someone who knows Russian."
Keep the change, please.
Just then, Zheng Jinxin walked out of the service station.
A few people who knew Zheng Jinxin greeted her and called her Nurse Zheng.
Hearing this, Su Tang turned his head and looked at Zheng Jinxin.
She was wearing a well-tailored work suit and her short hair was braided and tied at the back of her head.
Her fair skin distinguishes her from others, and her whole body exudes an intellectual beauty.
But standing next to Su Tang, he felt a little outshined.
"Lili, you've really wronged Comrade Su this time. This book is the Russian edition of Selected Works of Mao Zedong."
Zheng Jinxin speaks softly and her smile is very contagious.
Everyone in these family compounds in the northwest has been taken care of by her, and her words are highly credible.
Seeing Zheng Jinxin speaking for Su Tang, Hu Lili felt dissatisfied.
"Nurse Zheng, you must see clearly that the crime of harboring someone is also a crime."
Hu Lili clenched her fists, looking determined not to give up.
Su Tang was too lazy to argue with Hu Lili anymore. She had to make Hu Lili understand how powerful she was today.
"Let's go then. Aren't you going to report me? Report me here?"
She turned around to leave, and Hu Lili reached out to pull her, but Su Tang waved her away.
"where did you go?"
"The leader's office, find a place where you can report it."
Su Tang looked disdainful and didn't care at all, which made Hu Lili feel a little scared.
"Not leaving? Oh, you're just making this up just to slander me?"
Seeing that Hu Lili didn't want to leave, Su Tang showed a bit of sarcasm on his face, "Hu Lili, are you trying to kill me?"
"You're putting this big hat on my head without any reason. I'm going to be hurt badly by you."
After saying that, Su Tang covered her face and started crying: "Everyone come and see, someone is killing someone!"
This series of moves was so fast that no one present could react.
Hu Lili was even more confused. Su Tang really had the presence to do such a thing...
"Hu Lili, Nurse Zheng said this isn't the kind of book you're talking about."
"We all believe what Nurse Zheng says. Hu Lili, you've really done a lot of harm to others."
As accusations rang out one after another, Hu Lili's face turned pale and she tried to retreat.
Zheng Jinxin walked over to Hu Lili and held her trembling arm in time: "Lili, don't worry, we are all comrades, please talk slowly."
These words were meant to persuade them to reconcile, and also subtly brought Hu Lili closer to him, separating them from the crowd that was surrounding them.
"I……"
Hu Lili couldn't say a word for a long time. She was afraid that she would be held responsible. After all, if something happened, she and her brother would not be able to stay here.
Su Tang wiped the corners of his eyes with his fingertips, and when he saw that the limelight had almost died down, he spoke out loud.
"I've already said it, as long as you apologize to me, I won't pursue this matter."
When Su Tang came to the northwest, he never thought of causing trouble.
She has a special identity and everyone is eager to find something to hold against her.
If something happens to her now, it will not only implicate Lu Xiao, but also her parents who are far away in Shanghai.
But Hu Lili insisted on holding her back and was determined not to give up until she was kicked out of the family compound.
So this time, by taking advantage of Hu Lili's slander against her, Su Tang wanted to let them know that she, Su Tang, was not a pushover.
If you want to bully her, you have to consider whether you are good at talking.
"Hu Lili, you should apologize to Su Tang right away."
Hu Lili bit her lip, not wanting to do anything so embarrassing.
Or maybe the aunt was afraid that Hu Lili would really be driven away because of this.
After all, her boy is still in Hu Lili's nursery.
"Yes, I'm sorry."
After saying that, Hu Lili turned around and ran away crying.
She lost two people in one day and she won’t come out for the next few days.
After this apology, Su Tang didn't say anything more and the crowd dispersed.
Su Tang looked at Zheng Jinxin and said, "Nurse Zheng helped me a lot today. I'll have Lu Xiao bring two kilograms of brown sugar to thank you someday."
Her words were clearly a thank you, but she pronounced the word "Lu Xiao" clearly, intentionally or unintentionally.
The tips of Zheng Jinxin's ears felt slightly hot, and when she lowered her eyes, her eyelashes cast a butterfly-like shadow on her eyelids.
"Comrade Su, please stop saying that. Captain Lu is defending our country, and we in the rear should be united."
As he said this, he took out a tin box from his pocket.
"The infirmary distributed a piece of osmanthus candy yesterday. Try it."
When Su Tang looked at the box, he knew that the price was not cheap.
But this kind of sugar is not available in Shanghai at all.
Imported candies are popular in Shanghai. The original owner used to eat White Rabbit milk candy and Russian chocolate.
Su Tang reached out to take it and thanked him again.
"I want to go back too, let's go together."
Zheng Jinxin looked at Su Tang calmly, and the latter nodded and agreed to her words.
Su Tang had already seen through Zheng Jinxin.
She and Hu Lili have the same purpose, they both like Lu Xiao.
It’s just that Hu Lili is straightforward and seems easy to guess what she’s thinking.
Zheng Jinxin is different, her thoughts are too hidden.
It seems that I am on her side, but in fact, it is only by getting closer to her that I have an excuse to visit her often.
The two walked side by side towards the family compound, and Zheng Jinxin explained, "Actually, Lili isn't usually like this."
"Maybe Captain Lu suddenly got married..."
"Lu Xiao's marriage report was submitted a year ago. We have been married for a year, Nurse Zheng."
Zheng Jinxin was interrupted by Su Tang before she could finish her words.
Hearing this, Zheng Jinxin clenched the bag in her hand.
"I forgot, don't mind."
Su Tang looked at Zheng Jinxin with a faint smile on her face: "Nurse Zheng, you have a really good memory. You even remember when Lu Xiao got married."
There was something hidden in her words, and Zheng Jinxin frowned slightly.
A gust of wind blew by, picking up the dead leaves on the roadside, making them spin in the air and then fall back to the ground.
The two continued walking forward, silence filled the air, and only the sound of footsteps could be heard.
Zheng Jinxin took the initiative to break the deadlock and tried to ease the atmosphere: "Comrade Su, the Northwest is not like Shanghai. If you need anything in the future, just tell me and I will be able to help you out."
Her tone was gentle, with just the right amount of concern.
Su Tang turned to look at her, the smile on his lips not reaching his eyes.
"Nurse Zheng is thoughtful, but Lu Xiao and I have a stable life and don't lack anything. I just didn't expect that there are so many people in the northwest who care about him."
He changed the subject, seemingly stabbing the other party intentionally or unintentionally.
