In those days, television sets were not yet common in every household, and people had very limited entertainment options.
Watching the excitement is the most popular form of entertainment among ordinary people.
The neighbors immediately gathered around, pointing and cursing Li Wenbo, saying he was inhuman.
Li Wenbo was so embarrassed he could have dug out a courtyard house with his toes...
He couldn't find a single word to defend himself.
After a moment, he managed to stammer out a few words, "Um... Yue'er, can I see your mother?"
Li Xiyue questioned, "What right do you have to see her?!"
Li Wenbo opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.
He had no choice but to place the large net bag he was carrying at Li Xiyue's feet, saying, "This is what I bought for you and your mother."
He pushed his bicycle, looking back every few steps. His once upright figure hunched over, making him look ten years older.
The neighbor's children had already run off to warn Cheng Xiaohui.
When Cheng Xiaohui heard that Li Wenbo had arrived, she hurriedly came out, only to see Li Wenbo's back and Li Xiyue blocking the entrance of the courtyard.
Li Xiyue distributed the canned fruit and canned meat from the mesh bag to the neighbor's children.
The children were overjoyed, as if it were Chinese New Year, when they received the treats they usually only got when they were sick.
Li Xiyue said, "Mom, we don't need any more food. Let's not take what he bought!"
Cheng Xiaohui said noncommittally, "It's getting late, go to bed early. I've boiled some water, you can take a bath."
When Li Xiyue saw the sad look in her mother's eyes, she felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
She didn't let Cheng Xiaohui go back to Li Wenbo's side for Cheng Xiaohui's own good.
But she knew better than anyone that Cheng Xiaohui longed to return to Li Wenbo's side.
But how could Li Wenbo be worthy of Cheng Xiaohui?!
She said, "Mom, from now on, my daughter and I will depend on each other. We'll have a good life ahead of us, and I'll make you the happiest woman in the world!"
Cheng Xiaohui smiled faintly, "I know you are the most filial child!"
Cheng Xiaohui's smile was faint, but it did not escape Li Xiyue's eyes.
Li Xiyue returned home with her mother. She told her mother to go to sleep first, saying that she had something to do and needed to go to school.
Cheng Xiaohui asked worriedly, "Why are you going to school so late? Can't you go tomorrow?"
Li Xiyue said, "It's something urgent. Mom, you go to sleep first, I'll be back in a bit!"
After she finished speaking, she closed the door, got on her bicycle, and left home.
It was already quite dark, but fortunately she had X-ray vision, so the light didn't significantly affect her eyesight, and she could clearly see her surroundings.
She rode her bicycle to Mu Cangnan's house again.
Her X-ray vision pierced through the wall, revealing that Li Xiulan and her two daughters were still awake, while Mu Cangnan and his two colleagues were already asleep.
Li Xiyue's heart clenched. She wondered how long Mu Cangnan and his colleagues hadn't slept. She could tell that Mu Cangnan was sleeping soundly.
With Mu Cangnan's professional competence, when faced with an important mission, even when sleeping, he would only remain in a state of light sleep.
It's clear how long Mu Cangnan hasn't slept; it's likely that neither he nor his colleagues have closed their eyes since leaving the Gobi Desert...
In Li Xiulan's room, Mu Jiuchun listened to her sister's sobbing while rolling her eyes.
She usually lives in the dormitory assigned by her work unit and only comes back once a month.
This time, she had calculated the day her third brother would be back, and she rushed back as soon as she finished her night shift.
Unexpectedly, her third brother was already asleep, but she still couldn't see him.
Mu Jiuchun said, "Big sister, how can you be so useless?! You're being bullied by men!"
He can have you whenever he wants, and discard you whenever he wants?! And that ex-wife, weren't we divorced a long time ago? Who does she think she is?!
Mu Jiuhong said, "I told Lao San to go find Li Wenbo when he comes back from the base."
Mu Jiuchun said, "What's the use of sending Third Brother? Third Brother only knows how to reason."
Mu Jiuhong said, "He has people on his side, so he can take more people to Li Wenbo's house."
Mu Jiuchun said, "This isn't a war. Why bring so many people? Do you want Third Brother to cripple Li Wenbo? If he's crippled, you'll be the one taking care of him!"
Besides, if you do that, Li Wenbo will only think you're being unreasonable!
Mu Jiuhong suddenly realized that her sister's words made sense, and she asked, "Little sister, tell me quickly, what should we do about this?"
Mu Jiuchun said, "The key is Li Wenbo's ex-wife! If his ex-wife doesn't go back to Li Wenbo's house, wouldn't this matter be resolved?"
Instead of you going to find Li Wenbo, let me go find Li Wenbo's ex-wife and beat her into submission! Haha, an old woman dares to steal your man!
"Pah! I'll teach her a lesson she won't have a good life if she dares to steal a man from a woman of the Mu family!"
After she finished speaking, she rolled up her sleeves and clenched her fist. She had never lost a fight in the factory!
The more Mu Jiuhong listened, the more she felt that her sister was right. If this matter was handled well, Li Wenbo would have no idea.
As long as Cheng Xiaohui doesn't go back, she can sit firmly in her position as the wife of the Li family!
She laughed and said, "Little sister! You're so clever! Let's go find Cheng Xiaohui tomorrow!"
Mu Jiuchun said fiercely, "Tomorrow I'll call a few more of my girlfriends and we'll scratch her face and smash her house! Let's see if she still has the nerve to go out and flirt with men!"
Standing outside the Mu family's gate, Li Xiyue's eyes narrowed dangerously. If Mu Jiuchun and Mu Jiuhong dared to come, she'd teach those two sisters a lesson: why are the flowers so red?!
