She became even more dissatisfied when she thought about how she had worked under the scorching sun all day and couldn't even have a hot meal.
Lu Yunshan stared at her quietly. Shen Jiaojiao felt like she was on edge. The man's eyes seemed to be filled with hostility and suppressed anger. She was a little irritated and uneasy. "What's wrong? I said a few words to you, but you still can't do it? Even if you don't want to cook, you can at least go to the cafeteria to get food, right? Why, now that you are suspended from work and have no salary at home, you are too lazy to even do such a small thing?"
"What nonsense did you say outside a few days ago? Do you know that this matter has been reported to my mother? She just came here. If I hadn't covered it up for you, you would have been criticized."
When it comes to Mother Lu, Shen Jiaojiao finally knows how to be afraid.
She had the upper hand over Lu Yunshan, so she was naturally not afraid of him. But Lu's mother was different. Before the marriage, she vowed that she would treat her as her own daughter.
But the fact is, as soon as she married into the Lu family, the old woman revealed her true colors and kept thinking about how to torture her.
She was a little nervous and asked Lu Yunshan tentatively, "But I have been working hard recently and I don't wear those clothes anymore. Why do you keep harping on this matter?"
As Shen Jiaojiao spoke, she couldn’t help feeling a little aggrieved.
She knew that she had done something wrong before, but she had been well behaved recently. She had done all this, so why were they still not satisfied?
Lu Yunshan's eyebrows trembled with anger.
"My mom said, you told others that I gave you endless money. Did you know that this matter has spread everywhere? Others think that my money came from illegal sources and asked the higher-ups to investigate me thoroughly!"
Lu Yunshan almost yelled this out, and he was confused. Why were other people's wives so good, but only this woman could always cause trouble for him?
"I beg you, Shen Jiaojiao, can you please pay more attention to your words and actions in the future? If you continue like this, we will all be beaten into capitalist running dogs."
Shen Jiaojiao didn't realize that she just said it casually, and she didn't really have that much money. She was just angry at the time. She felt wronged and wanted to cry. She just felt that she was too miserable. Even a casual angry word could be used as a handle.
But she forgot that it was the early 1980s, not as stable as it was later. The entire society was underdeveloped and the whole country was tightening its belt, but she was completely different from others. How could she not arouse suspicion?
Spies are caught every year. With her behavior like this, and on an island under militarized management, how could she not be investigated strictly?
Shen Jiaojiao felt wronged and worried, and looked at Lu Yunshan with a sad face, "So, did this incident have a big impact on you? I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it. I was so angry at the time, and I said it casually. I didn't expect those women to be so annoying that they spread this matter again. I'm sorry, Yunshan~ I won't do this again in the future, okay?"
She knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't dare to argue with Lu Yunshan anymore. She was also afraid that Lu Yunshan's career would be affected because of her. She went to great lengths to marry such an inhumane man, wasn't it just to become the head of the group's wife?
If he couldn't become the group leader because of this kind of thing, Shen Jiaojiao would be so sick to death!
Hearing her acting coquettishly to him in that sweet voice again, Lu Yunshan felt goose bumps all over his body.
Shen Jiaojiao did not notice the disgust and vigilance in the man's eyes. Instead, she moved closer to Lu Yunshan, wanting to thank him for speaking for her in front of Lu's mother.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunshan avoided her before she could touch him. "Just remember, don't get into conflict with others again. If you do this again next time, I won't say good things for you in front of my parents."
"I didn't do it on purpose. It's just the fault of those gossipy women..." Shen Jiaojiao grumbled in dissatisfaction, but when the man glared at her, she shut her mouth awkwardly.
Time quickly came to the weekend, and it was Zhou Yuanzheng's turn to take a day off this week.
Because he always felt that he was too busy and owed his wife, he planned to take Shen Qingqing out for a walk.
After dinner, Zhou Yuanzheng consciously cleared the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash them.
At the beginning, Shen Qingqing was not used to it. After all, in her previous life, all the big and small matters at home were on her shoulders, and Lu Yunshan was a hands-off boss who never asked about the affairs of the family.
Therefore, when Zhou Yuanzheng suggested washing the dishes, Shen Qingqing was shocked, but she couldn't refuse since he insisted. As time went by, the two of them had formed a tacit understanding that the woman would cook and the man would wash the dishes.
After dinner, Shen Qingqing had nothing to do, so she picked up a broom and swept the house.
Zhou Yuanzheng worked quickly and cleaned up the kitchen in less than ten minutes.
"I'm on vacation today, did you know?" Zhou Yuanzheng said as he poked his head out of the kitchen.
"Vacation? That's a good thing. You can take a few days' rest. I see you have been training all day recently. You must be very tired, right?" Shen Qingqing responded while sweeping the floor.
Seeing that she had no intention of leaving him alone, Zhou Yuanzheng explained, "Do you want me to take you out for a walk? You've been here for so long, and except for the one time I accompanied you before we got married, you've stayed on this island the rest of the time. It must be boring, right?"
The island was not big, and it would take half a day to explore it. He was in the army training all day, and Shen Qingqing was alone at home. After all, Zhou Yuanzheng still felt that he had wronged her, so whenever he had time, he thought about making up for it.
Shen Qingqing hesitated, "But I have to go to work tomorrow."
Zhou Yuanzheng immediately grinned, "Don't worry, it's okay to take two days off. The worst that can happen is that we will have less food. My salary is enough for us to spend, so you don't have to work too hard. I'll ask for leave for you. That's it, we'll go out and play tomorrow."
He was afraid that Shen Qingqing would refuse, so he immediately went out to ask for leave for Shen Qingqing. It was still early, and the registrar, Comrade Zhao, happened to live in the same family compound as them, so he could just go downstairs and tell her.
Watching Zhou Yuan leaving in a hurry, Shen Qingqing smiled helplessly.
The longer they spent together, the more she felt that this man was as childish as a child in private.
But it feels pretty good.
Shen Qingqing curled the corners of her lips.
