Shu Hui nodded and took the braised pork hock and mutton to the inner room.
Aunt Zeng doesn't rush him when she cooks, but she's nearly seventy after all, and Luo Kangcheng doesn't want her to work too hard. Besides, there's a canteen at his workplace, and he usually eats there, rarely going to such lengths to cook at home.
With Shu Hui's arrival, the kitchen felt more lively and welcoming.
Shu Hui's braised pork hock is exceptional. The meat is braised until tender and chewy, and the aroma of the tendons makes you want to swallow your tongue. Add to that Grandma Zeng's braised mutton, a few side dishes, and an egg drop soup, and the meal becomes a lively and enjoyable one.
When no one is home, Great-Grandma and Grandpa Luo try to save money on meals. It's not that they're unwilling to eat, but they're just too lazy to cook and want to save trouble.
But people can't go without food. The two old people aren't eating well, and their health isn't what it used to be.
The elderly couple were delighted to have Shu Hui come today. It meant someone could help with the cooking, and with Chu Yu keeping things lively, the house finally felt like a home again.
After the meal, Old Master Luo called Luo Kangcheng in.
Who was Luo Kangcheng? He was someone who, if not someone who lived on the edge of a knife, was close to it.
The police are constantly cracking down on organized crime and maintaining public order. His job is far from peaceful, and he's seen all sorts of big scenes. Although this matter makes him unhappy, he doesn't show it on his face.
Not only did he not show any reaction, Luo Kangcheng's eyes even appeared relaxed.
Chu Yu felt that there was a reason why he could become the director; his emotional stability alone was something that most people couldn't match.
“Comrade Shu, you must have been frightened by what happened today. Wu Wenlan is a bit eccentric and stubborn. If she misunderstands our relationship, she might just come to your house and confront you. I’m thinking I should visit your area more often these days to avoid her causing you trouble,” Luo Kangcheng said.
Shu Hui was a little stunned.
What does misunderstanding have to do with it? It took her a while to understand what Luo Kangcheng meant.
"She probably...won't come looking for me, right?"
"That's hard to say. It doesn't hurt to be careful. Besides, I've just finished up a big case and I can take care of some personal matters."
Shu Hui had no idea what the director's private affairs were, and Chu Yu felt that something was off.
"Uncle Luo, the big case you're working on isn't related to the mutual aid society, is it?"
Chu Yu had only heard that the new bureau chief was particularly concerned about the mutual aid association. He had taken swift and decisive action, dismantling the association in just a few days and arresting and detaining dozens of people, all while trying his best to minimize the losses for the members.
At that time, Chu Yu did not know that the so-called new director was Luo Kangcheng.
Luo Kangcheng did not deny that the original director had run into some trouble and was removed from his post, and he took over the case of the mutual aid association after taking over.
He had experience handling nuns' fundraising cases when he was in Deyang, so he was more than capable of dealing with mutual aid societies.
Zhou Fangchun was the nun's right-hand woman. When Luo Kangcheng was in Deyang, Zhou Fangchun escaped. When he arrived in Beijing and saw the names of Zhou Fangchun and Zhou Jian'an, he knew things were not going well.
Without hesitation, he took over the mutual aid association. However, worried about the impact on Chu Yu and Shu Hui, he did not reveal much behind-the-scenes information about the case and instructed the police officers not to disclose it to the public.
What a coincidence!
However, with Luo Kangcheng's protection, Chu Yu had someone to rely on, so she no longer needed to run home every day.
She hasn't been to the courtyard houses in Houhai for a long time.
In the afternoon, she went over there, intending to take the bedding out to air it and clean the house.
As soon as she entered the room, someone covered her mouth, and the next second, a burning kiss was planted on her lips. Chu Yu let out a whimper, and the person entered the room without any restraint, stirring her mouth and rubbing her rough fingers all over her body, causing Chu Yu to gasp repeatedly.
