Faced with the aunt's accusations, Zhou Yunwan did not fall into the trap of self-proof, but used herself as an example to fight back. You don't know the pain until you suffer the loss. Now it seems that the effect is very significant.
After buying a few dishes casually, Zhou Yunwan left with Shen Yanli, not caring how stinky the aunt's face was.
When they passed by a drugstore on the way home, Zhou Yunwan sent Shen Yanli in to buy medicine. She was shy and didn't go in to avoid being laughed at.
While waiting, she accidentally saw Li Ping who had just bought vegetables across the street. She was carrying several bags of vegetables in one hand and holding her five or six-year-old son in the other. She seemed to be unable to take care of everything and looked a little tired.
After taking a few glances, Zhou Yunwan was about to look away when Li Ping also noticed her. They stared at each other for a few seconds, and then their eyes were no longer eyes and their nose was no longer a nose.
The day before yesterday, when Li Ping heard Zhou Yunwan say that she and Shen Yanli had obtained their marriage certificate, she went to inquire about it. It would have been fine if she hadn't asked, but when she did, she got furious.
Chen Yanli and Zhou Yunwan distributed wedding candies to almost everyone else in the courtyard. Those who didn't get any were given some over the past two days, but their family was the only one not given any! Not even a word of it was mentioned.
How will this make others view their family?
Last time, after her family's Lao Wu was found to have maliciously reported Shen Yanli, although the two parties reached a settlement under the arrangement of the leader, there is no wall that is completely leaky. After a while, the whole family compound knew about it.
...
...
Because of this, her husband, Mr. Wu, was looked down upon by everyone in the courtyard, and his entire family was also unwelcome.
For a while, she didn't dare go out. As soon as she went out, she would be spitted at. Other people's children would not play with her son, saying that if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beams will be crooked, and they were afraid that the child would be led astray.
This made her so angry that she couldn't eat for three days!
Life was already difficult, and the couple was reluctant to even give their family a few wedding candies, not even giving them the slightest bit of face. Wasn't it clear that they were still at odds with their family?
She kept complaining at home, but she didn't even see the other person. She didn't know whether he had never gone out or he just happened not to see him, so she had no place to vent.
Now that they finally met, of course she didn't look happy.
However, she was about to explode with anger here, but Zhou Yunwan on the other side of the street just glanced at her indifferently, and left with Shen Yanli who came out of the pharmacy.
When Li Ping saw that Shen Yanli was there, she immediately lost the courage to go up and have a fight. His scary look from the day before yesterday was still vivid in her mind. She was alone, so naturally she couldn't beat the other couple.
While I was in a daze, someone suddenly pulled my hand: "Mom, I'm so hungry, let's go home."
Li Ping was so angry that she had no place to vent her anger. She glared at him fiercely and said, "All you do all day is eat and eat!"
Wu Kefeng was yelled at for no apparent reason. His mouth flattened and his eyes turned red with grievance. But just as he showed signs of crying, he was scolded again: "Don't cry! Go quickly. I have to go back to cook for your Wu family. I really owe you in my last life!"
Li Ping was with her child and walked slowly. When she got home, the door next door had already been locked.
When they got home, Wu Yuanzheng was still sleeping with the bedroom door locked. Li Ping left the child with his grandmother and went straight to the kitchen to cook.
I was delayed for some time today. If I don't hurry up, Wu Yuanzheng will be late for work after finishing breakfast.
After working for half an hour, I finally prepared a table of dishes.
In the center of the dining table was a pot of delicious old hen soup, which Li Ping had prepared at four or five in the morning, otherwise she would not have had enough time to prepare. The other two dishes were simple stir-fried vegetables and white flour buns.
Wu Yuanzheng simply wiped his face and came out of the bathroom. He sat down at the dining table and picked up the rice that Li Ping had served him. He took a bite and then thought of something. He said to Li Ping, "Go and deliver a bowl of chicken soup to Professor Shen's family next door. Remember to pick more chicken."
Li Ping was feeding Wu Kefeng. When she heard this, her eyes widened. She felt so distressed that blood was about to drip out. She blurted out subconsciously: "Why should you send it to them? They didn't even send wedding candy to our family, and you are still rushing to stick your warm face to others' cold butts. Aren't you despicable?"
They only have meat a few times a month, and old hen soup is a rare treat. Such a precious thing, and he actually wants to give it away for free? I'm afraid he has fallen asleep and become stupid?
Hearing the second half of the sentence, Wu Yuanzheng's face darkened and he frowned impatiently, "Just go when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Li Ping saw her husband's face change and hesitated for a moment, but still said stubbornly: "If you want to go, go by yourself. I won't go."
"Do you think I'm willing to please him? The director asked me to get along well with him. Otherwise, no one in the institute will be willing to cooperate with me in the future. I won't be able to get involved in any good projects. How can I eat at home?"
"By then, forget about the chicken soup. You won't even be able to eat the steamed buns!"
Upon hearing this, Li Ping retorted: "Who told you to be idle and report others? Do you regret it now? I told you not to do it in the first place, but you didn't listen. Now you have to curry favor with others even though you have gained nothing. I won't do such a shameful thing!"
Li Ping also knew that everyone in the station was avoiding him. They all said that Shen Yanli, who was not familiar with him, had been reported. If she got closer to him, once he got hold of any evidence, she didn't know how she would be dealt with.
People live by their face. Being tortured by such rumors every day, Wu Yuanzheng, who has always had a strong self-esteem, would definitely not be able to bear it, but isn't she the same? He got me into trouble so much that I dared not even leave the house.
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but mutter, "It's all your fault for insisting on reporting. As a result, you didn't become the deputy supervisor, and you almost didn't even keep your position as a team leader."
Seeing that she not only dared to contradict him but also dared to ridicule him blatantly, Wu Yuanzheng angrily threw his bowl and chopsticks on the table and raised his voice by two points.
"Isn't it for the promotion to deputy director? For this family? If I can become a deputy director, how can the salary and benefits of a small project leader now be compared to it?"
However, the result was exactly as Li Ping said. If he hadn’t sent the gift urgently, he would have almost lost his position as team leader, and the position of deputy director would have been equivalent to being handed over to Shen Yanli.
Wu Yuanzheng became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it, and brought the topic back to chicken soup: "Are you going or not? If not, get out of here!"
Li Ping also lost her temper after being yelled at by him, and immediately threw her bowl and chopsticks on the table: "I won't go! I won't leave, so what?"
Seeing that the couple was about to start a war, Wu's mother said, "Stop talking, both of you. Calm down. I'll go. I'll go, okay?"
As she said that, Wu's mother got up from her chair and went to the kitchen to get a bowl of soup. However, she was reluctant to use the chicken, so she used more chicken soup. She kept the chicken and added some water in the evening. Wouldn't it still be chicken soup?
Zhou Yunwan had no idea that there was already smoke next door. She was sitting on the sofa happily eating snacks and watching TV, while Chen Yanli was in the kitchen preparing the freshly bought fish.
