Chapter 42: Face-slapping Moment
"Captain Xiao and my husband work together. How do you make so much money?!"
"Is it possible that Captain Xiao's family is very wealthy? Do you have any overseas Chinese relatives in Taiwan or Hong Kong who have returned to recognize their relatives?"
In this era, many families suddenly become rich.
They are all those who are overseas, as well as those who have returned from Taiwan and Hong Kong to recognize their relatives.
The living conditions there are also well-developed, and they have already used advanced household appliances such as washing machines and range hoods.
"You are from Captain Xiao's family. You are enjoying the good life with Captain Xiao!" someone nearby echoed.
Obviously, they already thought that Xiao Beiming had a rich relative who bought them air conditioners and solar water heaters.
Lu Ci wanted to explain, but Sang Feiwan pulled her back and signaled her not to speak.
Xiao Beiming is such a strong male chauvinist that his face turned unhappy when he looked at the solar water heater and air conditioner.
If the military wives knew that she bought it with her own money, she was worried that they would say that Xiao Beiming was a gigolo.
After all, there are still a lot of people who gossip.
Tang Yong didn't bother to tell her in advance that he was coming to deliver a water heater and air conditioner, and she even forgot to tell Xiao Beiming about it.
The fat sister-in-law then said: "Now I wonder who will say that the daughter of Captain Xiao's family is a capitalist daughter. Captain Xiao can't support her, and she will run away sooner or later."
"We can't find another family here who can afford air conditioning and hot water. What's that called..."
At this moment, a voice came, "What are you doing here? Why is it so lively?"
The one who spoke was Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng was accompanied by Jiang Tingyu and two foreigners.
The foreigner had a camera hanging around his neck and was obviously a reporter.
Liu Cuihua quickly went to meet Jiang Tingyu, walked up to Jiang Tingyu and Lu Cheng and said, "We are all here to see the solar water heater and air conditioner that Captain Xiao bought for his family."
"What's there to brag about! If you didn't rely on Tang Yong, could you afford a water heater and air conditioner?" Jiang Tingyu walked up to Sang Feiwan and said to her viciously.
She hasn’t even used the air conditioner or water heater yet!
These should have been hers!
Tang Yong is her cash cow!
It was Sang Feiwan who shamelessly stole her!
He stole her things and showed off in front of her, how could she let her off easily?!
For a moment, everyone present was shocked when they heard it.
Tang Yong immediately defended Sang Feiwan, "Sister-in-law, please don't say anything nonsense. Sister Sang earned all her money herself, and she also bought the air conditioner and water heater with her own money."
"That's right! Sister Sang makes money as if it's playing. She can easily earn money that others can't earn in their entire life. The money Sister Sang earns in a few days is enough for you to work hard for several years!" Lu Ci echoed.
Lu Ci knew that Jiang Tingyu always had a high opinion of herself. In Jiang Tingyu's eyes, she was the most hardworking and motivated, working hard every day to make money, and everyone else was lazy and useless.
Especially she looked down on Sang Feiwan.
She really wanted to drag Jiang Tingyu to meet Mr. Hall, let Jiang Tingyu know Sang Feiwan's ability, and slap her in the face.
"Stop slandering Sister Sang with empty words. You look down on me like I'm on top of your head. You think too highly of yourself and look down on me. Your earning power is not even as good as one of Sister Sang's fingers."
"No, I was wrong. I shouldn't have compared you with Sister Sang. You and Sister Sang have never been on the same level."
Lu Ci looked at Jiang Tingyu with sarcasm and contempt, and said these words, which made Jiang Tingyu's face turn green with anger.
Sang Feiwan never cared, and Jiang Tingyu looked down on her.
After all, Jiang Tingyu was not even worth a damn in her eyes. Looking down on her was like not having a mirror at home and not being able to recognize herself.
Her core is strong enough and she has the ability, so naturally she won't care about a passerby who is inferior to her in everything.
Sang Feiwan was dismissive of Jiang Tingyu's provocation and looked cold at Xiao Beiming. She was extremely anxious.
She had just coaxed Xiao Beiming to stop looking for a job, so she didn't want to make him feel inferior anymore.
She quickly scratched his palm with her hand, "Don't be unhappy..."
"I want to beat her." Xiao Beiming said.
That's why Xiao Beiming had a cold face. It was not because he felt inferior when he heard others say that she could make money and that she relied on him to live a good life.
He was angry now because of what Jiang Tingyu said about her.
As long as you are not feeling inferior or driven by male chauvinism and are not forced to work, it is fine.
No, even hitting people is not allowed!
Sang Feiwan quickly said to him, "Don't..."
"I know, I'm restraining myself." Xiao Beiming knew what she was going to say, so he replied.
"Captain Xiao, Feiwan, I'm sorry that my wife's nonsense has affected your mood. I will take her away now." Lu Cheng frowned, reached out and pulled Jiang Tingyu over, and apologized.
He really didn't like seeing Jiang Tingyu like this.
As soon as he saw Sang Feiwan, he was like a rooster ready to fight. He couldn't see anyone else and only rushed towards Sang Feiwan and caused trouble for her.
Sang Feiwan replied perfunctorily, "It's okay."
Lu Ci, on the other hand, was the one who insisted on defending Sang Feiwan. "What do you mean it doesn't matter?"
"Brother, can't you just apologize to her? How many times has she caused trouble for Sister Sang? I even suspect she was really bitten by a dog. As soon as she saw Sister Sang, she was like a dog with no ivory in its mouth, looking for trouble!"
"Today, I must make her apologize to Sister Sang and promise not to provoke Sister Sang again, otherwise I will not forgive her!"
"Also, last time I heard you say you wanted to divorce her, why haven't you heard anything since?"
Lu Cheng's face was solemn and worried for a moment, and he didn't say a word.
He didn't know how to start.
He had already decided to divorce and had informed his grandmother and parents at home, but something happened before he was discharged from the hospital.
He didn't know how he ended up having sex with Jiang Tingyu in a daze.
Lu Cheng is a man with a high sense of morals. He didn't love Jiang Tingyu before and never touched her, so when he met Jiang Tingyu later and had sex with her, he would assume the responsibilities of a husband.
Jiang Tingyu sneered and nodded, "Okay, I apologize, I said the wrong thing."
Then, she looked at Xiao Beiming again, "Captain Xiao, it depends on whether you believe what I say or what Tang Yong and Lu Ci say."
"Tang Yong is very rich. Although his status is only slightly lower than Lu Cheng's, he will not let her lack money to spend."
"I'm just kindly reminding you. After all, she's too attached to Tang Yong."
She said this deliberately in order to sow discord between Xiao Beiming and Sang Feiwan.
At the very least, Xiao Beiming can keep an eye on Sang Feiwan and stop Sang Feiwan from associating with Tang Yong.
Xiao Beiming has already controlled Sang Feiwan from seeing Lu Cheng. As long as Xiao Beiming controls Sang Feiwan and stops her from associating with Tang Yong, he can cut off Sang Feiwan's source of income.
What she couldn't get, she didn't want Sang Feiwan to get!
"I think you should be able to see it yourself. She's just scared by your beating last time. She doesn't really want to live a good life with you. Otherwise, why would she associate with Tang Yong and always go to the Lu family?"
"If she had the chance, she would definitely dump you, a paranoid and violent person."
After Jiang Tingyu put it down, she turned around and left.
Lu Ci was not satisfied with Jiang Tingyu's apology, so he stopped Jiang Tingyu and asked her to apologize again.
Tang Yong also stood in front of Jiang Tingyu, "Please take back what you just said and apologize to Sister Sang and Captain Xiao again!"
At this moment, two foreigners nearby asked in a foreign language what happened.
Jiang Tingyu coldly said to Lu Ci, "Your brother and I have to entertain foreign journalists, so we don't have time to fool around with you!"
"Xiao Ci, we have important business to attend to, and your sister-in-law still needs to translate for me." Lu Cheng said.
Lu Ci complained, "Brother, if you want to find a translator, why don't you ask Sister Sang? Sister Sang graduated from a prestigious university. Why would you ask someone from the countryside who only went to elementary school to translate for you?"
Here comes the face-slapping plot.
In the original plot, Lu Ci helped the villain Sang Feiwan to target Jiang Tingyu everywhere.
Let Jiang Tingyu slap them in the face again and again, and have her moments of glory, which amazed and impressed everyone.
In this plot, Jiang Tingyu immediately showed off her foreign language skills.
Sang Feiwan stuttered and couldn't even communicate normally, which made him lose face in front of outsiders and Lu Cheng.
But now Sang Feiwan is also a person who has traveled through the book, so Jiang Tingyu is worried that she can speak English.
She then sternly taught Lu Ci a lesson, "I'm your sister-in-law. I'm here to do this kind of thing to bring honor to the Lu family. We're a family that thrives together and suffers together!"
"If I didn't know English, your brother wouldn't have brought me here to translate."
Lu Ci scoffed, "Now you're telling me that we all prosper together and suffer together, but why didn't you say the same thing when Sister Shu was forced to go to the countryside? And you're saying you don't want people to accuse the Lu family of bullying the weak?"
"So, regarding this translation job now, can I also say that you're taking advantage of my dad and brother's positions, hoping to gain recognition and recognition by becoming a translator and thereby damaging my dad and brother's reputation?"
People have their own opinions, and she didn't give in to Jiang Tingyu.
Jiang Tingyu was speechless for a moment, and glared at Lu Ci in anger, "You!"
Sang Feiwan was also very unhappy. As soon as her relationship with Xiao Beiming eased a little, Jiang Tingyu would always jump out to stir up trouble.
So, she said with a look of grievance: "Brother Lu Cheng, I have been wronged, and I also have a temper."
"If your wife doesn't apologize to me today and admit in front of my husband that what she just said was intentional slander against me, and that she's jealous of my beauty and family background, and say it loudly for all the neighbors present to hear, I will never forgive her."
"I'm going to ask Uncle Lu to help me..."
"I'm sorry, Fei Wan, she won't apologize. I'll make it up to you. If you and Captain Xiao need anything, just tell me." Lu Cheng said.
Sang Feiwan said again, feeling aggrieved, "I don't want you to make amends. You didn't say those slanderous words. Why can your wife slander me and say so many unpleasant things about me and my husband, and yet she doesn't even have to apologize? She can still work as an interpreter for foreign journalists in the military region and even receive commendations?"
"Brother Lu Cheng, I'm absolutely not saying that your family is using their privilege to protect her and bully me and my husband. I believe in Uncle Lu and you, but others don't know."
Letting Sang Feiwan play the role of a green tea girl won’t ruin her character.
The charm of language that can achieve one's goals through speaking is too great, and not everyone can be a green tea.
