Chapter 125: Apology



Lin Jingshu seemed to smell gossip and urged, "Hurry up and tell me what's going on?"

Gu Chengze saw it by accident. Afraid that Lin Shan would notice, he didn't dare to get too close. He only saw him circling in front of the art troupe.

"He won't be back for a while, so let's save some food for him."

Lin Jingshu: "Okay."

Before she could go to the kitchen, Lin Shan strode in from outside with a slightly unnatural look on his face.

Lin Jingshu and Gu Chengze looked at each other and felt that there was gossip.

Lin Jingshu attacked first.

"Brother, where have you been?"

Lin Shan avoided her gaze and replied after a while, "It's too boring to stay at home. I'm going out for a walk."

Gu Chengze curled the corners of his mouth, "You little bastard, you're still pretending."

"Really? He transferred to the art troupe?"

Lin Shan's face suddenly flushed red, and he stammered, "What art troupe? Don't talk nonsense, I didn't go."

Lin Jingshu was full of disbelief, "Really? Big brother, don't lie to me, or I'll tell Mom when you call me."

When her brothers bullied her as a child, Lin Jingshu would howl in her baby voice, and her mother would catch her brothers and beat them up without saying a word.

The feeling of stir-frying meat with bamboo weaving is deeply engraved in Lin Shan’s memory.

Lin Shan looked at her resentfully, "Little sister, you've become a bad person."

It must be Gu Chengze, the black-hearted fox, who led his well-behaved and lovely sister astray.

Gu Chengze: "Leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist."

It was a rare opportunity to gossip about the forest and the mountains, so Gu Chengze naturally would not let it go.

Lin Shan sat in the middle, staring at people on both sides, and was under a lot of pressure.

The burning gazes between the two people were impossible to ignore.

He sat up suddenly and moved to the other side. "The food is getting cold. Let's eat."

I didn’t expect that my brother was so tight-lipped that I didn’t get any information from him.

Lin Jingshu spread her hands. Since he didn't want to say it, she wouldn't force him.

Lin Jingshu didn't insist and casually talked about making mooncakes.

Lin Shan also likes sweet food. He is not picky about the taste as long as there is something to eat.

When he said this, Lin Jingshu understood.

After dinner, when Lin Jingshu was showing the finished drawings to the two of them, Zhang Sufen came to the house.

Zhou Jianguo followed beside him.

Zhou Jianguo looked a little embarrassed and unnatural. If you looked closely, you would find that there were some bruises at the corners of his eyes.

Apart from the last time she met him in the hospital, Lin Jingshu had no other interactions with him.

Zhou Jianguo has a square face. The first impression of him is that he is a very honest person. He usually keeps silent when you meet him, but in fact he has his own little thoughts. Such a man will only retreat when encountering problems.

Lin Jingshu was surprised to see the couple coming to her house.

Zhang Sufen lowered her head, as if she was embarrassed to see people.

Zhou Jianguo: "Comrade Lin, we are here to apologize. It's all the child's mother's fault for not being able to speak and talking nonsense in front of you. This is a small token of our appreciation. I hope you don't mind."

After he finished speaking, he put down two bags of snacks.

Finally, he tugged at the corner of Zhang Sufen's clothes, motioning her to come forward.

Zhang Sufen bit her lower lip tightly, her face slightly pale. Under the gaze of everyone, she said, "Comrade Lin, I shouldn't have spread false information based on hearsay. I'm very sorry about what happened to Captain Gu."

If Lin Jingshu didn't have good hearing, she wouldn't have heard her mosquito-like words.

Lin Shan got angry when he saw her. He had always respected his sisters-in-law, but he couldn't hide his anger. He said angrily, "If apologies were useful, everyone outside would be a criminal."

Zhang Sufen lowered her eyelids to hide the dissatisfaction in her eyes. She had already come to apologize, what else did they want?

She told Lin Jingshu the news out of kindness. She felt so bad for being kept in the dark about her husband's accident, but she didn't show any gratitude and even cursed at him.

Zhang Sufen felt aggrieved.

Aunt Kang criticized her for this matter, "Old Qi said it all, hiding the news, I didn't even know, how did you know?"

Unable to withstand Aunt Kang's gaze, Zhang Sufen soon admitted that it was Zhou Jianguo who mentioned it when he was at home, and she knew it after asking.

Zhou Jianguo repeatedly stressed that this matter must not be told to anyone.

She didn't mean it. That day, she saw Lin Jingshu's mind was out of control and her mouth was talking like a bald skin.

She was reluctant to come and apologize, and Lin Jingshu didn't want to see her.

Lin Jingshu did not forget the hint of relief in Zhang Sufen's eyes when she stopped her and told her about Gu Chengze's disappearance.

She said calmly, "I accept the apology. You can take the food back and feed it to the children. Think carefully before you speak next time. Don't say anything careless. I don't need to tell you that the mouth can cause trouble."

These words hit Zhang Sufen directly in the face, and her face turned pale, then blue, and then blue, and then purple.

Zhou Jianguo was a senior, and it was his first time being lectured by a young comrade. His face was extremely grim, but he managed a smile. "Comrade Lin is right. I will definitely educate her well when I get back."

Zhang Sufen was very arrogant in the family compound. Relying on Zhou Jianguo's identity, she acted domineeringly among a group of city dwellers, bossing them around and saying this and that.

If other people didn't want to make a fuss, she would have been condemned by everyone in the family compound.

Lin Jingshu stays away from people like this. Don't hang around me in the future and I won't deal with you.

Zhou Jianguo understood what she meant and didn't feel like staying any longer.

Lin Jingshu didn't want the things they brought and asked them to take them back.

As they left, Lin Shan complained, "They really are a couple."

Who is he making fun of with two bags of snacks? If he had apologized sincerely, he wouldn't have been so cold.

Lin Jingshu looked at Gu Chengze, "Could it be that you were the one who caused the injury on Captain Zhou's face?"

Gu Chengze went out in the afternoon and was covered in dirt when he came back, but he said it was accidental and she didn't think much about it.

Now that I think about it, there’s probably something wrong.

Gu Chengze touched the corner of his mouth and did not deny it.

Lin Jingshu frowned, feeling both happy and worried.

I was happy that he had vented his anger, but I was worried that his wound would split open.

Noticing her gaze, Gu Chengze lifted up his clothes and said, "Look, wife, I'm fine."

When Zhang Sufen did something wrong, Gu Chengze couldn't fight with her, but he could find Zhou Jianguo to fight with her.

His daughter-in-law didn't marry him to be wronged. If anyone dared to bully her, he would not let her suffer.

What about face, what about brotherhood, nothing is more important than a wife.

Lin Jingshu was very touched and felt that he was thoughtful.

Not long after Zhang Sufen left, her good sisters-in-law from the family compound came to her house with gifts.

Everyone knew that the two had been discharged from the hospital and visited them at home.

Some brought eggs, some brought snacks, some brought brown sugar, and some brought canned food. They were all the sisters-in-law’s thoughtful gifts.

The family compound is equivalent to a big family. It is normal to lend a hand and help others when someone has problems.

Only when there is give and take can things last long.

The sisters-in-law were afraid of disturbing their rest, so they sat for a while and then left.

Lin Jingshu only kept half of the things they brought and let them take the rest back.
