Chapter 3 Being Bullied
Hu Lili was so angry when she saw the two of them being so intimate in front of her that she wanted to go up and pull them apart.
Lu Xiao took Su Tang into the family compound, and Zhang Cui followed behind, glancing at Hu Lili as they passed by.
"Hey, they say a good dog doesn't block the road, why are you always blocking the road?"
"Our sister Su is beautiful and educated. Brother Lu is so lucky."
Zhang Cui's words were like poison, stabbing Hu Lili in the heart with every word.
Chang Jia was afraid that if Zhang Cui continued talking, Hu Lili would be so angry that she would die, so he quickly helped Zhang Cui carry the suitcase and walked in.
"Sister-in-law, Brother Wang is probably waiting for you, let's go in quickly."
After being persuaded by Chang Jia, Zhang Cui was too lazy to pay attention to Hu Lili anymore.
Zhang Cui was no longer eligible to join the army a few years ago and could only visit her man every once in a while.
She knew before that Hu Lili had feelings for Lu Xiao, but she felt that Lu Xiao probably looked down on Hu Lili.
Later, I heard from my husband that Lu Xiao was married, and his wife was the daughter of a professor in Shanghai.
In fact, Zhang Cui didn't have any good feelings towards this kind of young lady.
But when she didn't know Su Tang's identity, she not only helped herself, but was also humble and polite.
She was completely different from the spoiled young lady Zhang Cui had imagined.
Compared to Hu Lili, Zhang Cui still likes Su Tang more.
Su Tang followed Lu Xiao to the end of a row of houses. He took out the key, opened the door and walked in.
The furnishings in the house are simple, with nothing else except daily necessities.
There was a pile of new daily necessities on the table next to him, which should have been bought by Lu Xiao in advance.
"Professor Su wrote to me before. Once things are stable, if you want to go back to Shanghai, I will take you back."
"The family compound is full of the families of our comrades. There are all kinds of people here. If you feel like you can't get along with them, just stay in your room and read a book."
Lu Xiao bent down to put down Su Tang's suitcase and poured Su Tang a glass of water from the thermos.
Hearing him say this, Su Tang nodded.
What he said was right. There were all kinds of people in the family compound, and now was a special period, so everyone had a bad impression of her.
Isn’t that the Hu Lili just now?
Su Tang didn't want to cause trouble.
"Um, our marriage..."
She took a step forward, wanting to explain something in advance.
After all, the two are now a legal couple, and they should fulfill their obligations in certain matters.
But Su Tang was not familiar with Lu Xiao, and she didn't know whether she could go back, so she was not prepared for that kind of thing.
However, Lu Xiao seemed to have noticed her thoughts long ago, and his eyes darkened.
"I'll sleep on the sofa."
After saying that, he added, "There aren't many rooms in the family compound, and there's no room available for you. You can sleep inside, and I'll sleep outside."
Lu Xiao knew that it was not Su Tang's intention to join the army this time.
Her father was afraid that she would be implicated, so he asked her to come to the northwest.
If it weren't for this incident, he might not have seen her yet.
The woman in front of him was tall and slender, with a pretty face and fair skin like a piece of tender tofu that could be squeezed to produce water.
The amber eyes are clear and beautiful, like gems.
To be fair, if it weren't for the special period, he probably wouldn't have been able to marry Su Tang.
She could have had a better life.
"I'm sorry, I'm just not ready yet, but Lu Xiao, you're a really nice person. Thank you for taking me in."
Su Tang, who was very polite, knew from Lu Xiao's expression that he had misunderstood.
So she quickly added, "It's just this, it would be better not to add it."
Lu Xiao hummed and looked at the clock on the wall: "I have something else to do. I'll bring you dinner tonight."
After saying that, he left.
After he left, Su Tang slowly exhaled and sat on the chair.
Su Tang's things had been packed up long ago.
There were four large boxes in total, containing her favorite books, clothes, daily necessities and so on.
Su Tang looked at the boxes piled in the corner, rolled up his sleeves and walked over to drag them over.
After opening the box, Su Tang discovered that the original owner was in the UK, studying clinical medicine.
Wow, isn't this professional?
It's her fault for not reading the book carefully and not noticing this.
Su Tang felt a little better when he saw something familiar.
She looked around the inner room. It wasn't big, just a double bed and a desk.
There is a book on the table that Lu Xiao is reading, but it is just an enlightenment book.
Su Tang knew that Lu Xiao was not well educated, but it was amazing that he had climbed to his current position through his own efforts.
She brought her own books over and placed them on the bookshelf, and the extra ones were piled aside.
Lu Xiao must have replaced the things on the bed in advance. It was clean and smelled of soap.
Su Tang unpacked the remaining three boxes, hung the clothes in the closet, and put a tablecloth on the table.
After she finished laying it out, she remembered that it was not a good time to deal with these things, so she reluctantly tore them down.
"Sister Su, are you there?"
Su Tang saw that the house was clean and there was no need for him to clean it up. He was about to lie down and rest for a while when he heard Zhang Cui's voice.
She walked over, opened the door, and let Zhang Cui in.
"It's different having a woman here. Look how clean this room is."
Hearing this, Su Tang felt a little embarrassed. The room was already clean, and it wasn't her who cleaned it.
"Sister Zhang, what's wrong?"
"Brother Lu just said that he has a mission tonight and may not be back. He asked me to take you to the cafeteria for dinner and familiarize you with the bottom lane."
After Zhang Cui finished speaking, Su Tang nodded. Lu Xiao was still very considerate.
I didn't forget her, otherwise she would have starved to death here.
"Okay, I'll go get the tickets."
Hearing this, Zhang Cui pulled Su Tang over and said, "Brother Lu gave me the food coupons. Let's go. I'll take you there. If it's any later, there will be no good food to eat."
Su Tang was pulled out by Zhang Cui. She took the key and bowl, locked the door and went to the cafeteria with Zhang Cui.
When we arrived at the cafeteria, there weren't many people inside, but the aroma of food spread from ten miles away.
Su Tang, who had only eaten a few steamed buns in the past two days, started drooling when he smelled the smell.
The two of them lined up to get food, and Zhang Cui was telling Su Tang some interesting stories.
When Zhang Cui in front finished her meal and it was Su Tang's turn, the man glanced at Su Tang and covered the pot.
"Comrade, I haven't been given any food yet."
There were only two steamed buns in Su Tang's bowl, and she didn't get a single bite of the stewed cabbage.
"There's not enough food. We have to leave it for others."
After hearing this, Su Tang finally realized that it was not because there was not enough food, but that they were deliberately targeting her.
Zhang Cui, who was almost walking away, saw this scene, and then saw that it was Hu Lili's brother who was serving them food, and she immediately understood.
"I paid for the food coupons, why can't I get food?"
"If you don't serve me food, give me back my food coupons."
Su Tang was too lazy to argue with him and just reached out for the food coupons.
"Didn't you eat this bun? You can't return it."
This guy was even more shameless. He looked at the steamed bun that Su Tang had taken two bites of and acted like a rogue.
"You're sure you won't return my food coupons or give me food, right?"
"I've already told you that there isn't enough food. I can't give you any."
Hearing him say this, Su Tang nodded, and without saying a word, he pulled the paper and pen from the suggestion box beside him.
"What are you doing?"
"Give me feedback. Tell the leader how you bullied the soldiers' families. I'll ask you again. Why don't you pay me back?"
