Chapter 173 Letter of Guarantee
It’s not Lin Shu’s fault for thinking the wrong thing. After all, a government official suddenly came to her and told her that Lu Shaotang beat his wife, and told her to tell the organization if she had any problems. What does this mean?
Lu Shaotang never beat her, so which wife did he beat?
What problems does she have?
Wasn’t she just selected as an advanced person? She has no problems.
Of course, not being able to eat meat every day, eating sugar, fruit, and white flour at will, and not having the Internet and smartphones are also problems, but the government can’t solve them for her, right?
So she couldn’t ask for them.
Seeing Lin Shu’s intense reaction, Xu Aihong and Wang Lijuan were afraid that she would get emotional and do something to hurt herself, so they hurried to comfort her.
Xu Aihong glanced at Wang Lijuan, and she actually believed what Lin Shu said about domestic violence.
Wang Lijuan: "Lin Shu, don't get excited. I know you've suffered a lot of grievances and you have no one to confide in. I understand you. Although you married a man with a high status and salary, everyone envied you. You looked glorious and proud on the surface, but you were bitter in your heart, you..."
"Wait a minute." Lin Shu interrupted her immediately, looking at Wang Lijuan in disbelief, as if she didn't know her.
She knew that Wang Lijuan's ability was terribly low, and this women's director was a figurehead. She had never directly resolved even a single conflict, whether it was women fighting, couples fighting, or children being abused in the village. She
would always say, "Stop fighting, be calm, be peaceful, be...", "You are husband and wife, one day of marriage is a hundred days of grace", "The child is still young, how can you hit her?" and so on.
Sometimes two women would fight, and she, the women's director, would go and mediate, and in the end, she would persuade the two women to unite and beat her up first, and then continue to beat her up.
Anyway, every conflict in the village was eventually resolved by the branch secretary or the team leader, and it was hard to describe her as the women's director.
But because she was related to the county women's director, the brigade kept her in the position.
The branch secretary and the team leader both felt that the position of women's director was useless, but it was necessary, and the brigade revolutionary committee would be incomplete without it.
In the past, Lin Shu didn't take it seriously, thinking that no matter how useless she was, she was still a women's director, and she was still useful.
Today, she was really a little bit stupid - she opened her eyes!
Were you infected by Lin Aidi? I am in trouble for pushing my head?
She said bluntly and rudely: "You two, what do you mean? You said that I was beaten by Lu Shaotang? You want to support me?"
Seeing that she said it so bluntly and her face was so ugly, Xu Aihong thought that she was angry and embarrassed after her fake mask of happiness was exposed, and hurriedly comforted her: "Comrade Lin Shu, don't be excited, we are also for your own good, the Women's Federation..."
Lin Shu raised her hand to stop her from continuing to nag, "I was not abused, who is making up this rumor?"
Xu Aihong wanted to persuade her, "Comrade Lin Shu, don't be afraid to seek medical attention. Don't worry, we won't..."
Lin Shu had calmed down. She looked at them coldly and said in a very cold voice, "Who spread rumors about domestic violence? This is a deliberate attempt to smear the image of military officers and to spread rumors about military families. If you protect the rumormonger and refuse to say anything, I will go to the police station and report it immediately."
Xu Aihong and Wang Lijuan were confused. What was going on?
The other party didn't admit it? And we still need to report it to the police?
Lin Shu's attitude told her that there might be a misunderstanding, but her rich work experience also told her that in reality, many women, especially the families of cadres, would not dare to expose it even if they were beaten by men, let alone go to the Women's Federation.
There are many reasons. They are afraid of losing their men's wages, and they are also afraid of losing the dignity and vanity brought by their men's identities. They will be laughed at by outsiders, and they don't want to affect their children.
Although being beaten is painful, it is also very difficult for them to divorce their men. They can get through it by enduring it for a lifetime.
Even if they can't stand being beaten and go to the Women's Federation, their purpose is not to divorce, but to hope that the Women's Federation can help put pressure on the men to stop beating them and treat them better.
The more powerful a man is, the less his family dares to speak out.
She immediately judged that Lin Shu was angry because the family scandal was exposed, and she was also afraid that she would be forced to divorce after the family scandal was known. That would bring about earth-shaking changes in her, which she could not accept.
After all, it is rare to find a man as good as Lu Shaotang, so it is tolerable even if he beats his wife.
Especially Lin Shu... She is probably a woman with a strong sense of vanity. It is understandable that she is reluctant to give up Lu Shaotang's decent status, generous salary, handsome appearance, etc.
Xu Aihong decided to persuade her again, "Comrade Lin Shu, don't be afraid, the Women's Federation will make the decision for you. We will not force you to divorce. We are here to help you. We will urge Comrade Lu Shaotang not to beat his wife in the future..."
Lin Shu said coldly: "Lu Shaotang did not beat me, unless you have evidence that he has another wife."
Xu Aihong was very embarrassed.
Wang Lijuan: "You still don't admit it. People have heard you cry because of Lu Shaotang's beating several times."
This is even more ridiculous!
Lin Shu sneered, "Who heard it? Let them confront me in person, I'm really confused."
Wang Lijuan: "Every time Lu Shaotang comes back, you're not feeling well the next day. It's okay in winter, with the doors and windows closed, no one can hear you crying, but in summer you open the back window, and someone walking behind your house can hear you crying. And once I saw with my own eyes that you had bruises on your body."
She lifted her skirt and pointed to her waist, then to her collarbone.
Lin Shu's face immediately turned red, including her neck, arms and even the back of her hands.
You, me!
What the hell!
What the hell!
Lin Shu wanted to swear but didn't know what to say.
Xu Aihong was finally old, experienced in work, and knowledgeable. She understood it in an instant, and her old face immediately turned red.
Only her silly niece didn't understand anything. She was also a married woman, so how could she...
She immediately held Wang Lijuan and told her not to say anything.
Xu Aihong was also very embarrassed and smiled awkwardly, "Comrade Lin Shu, ahem, that... that's really sorry. We didn't do a rigorous job investigation and made a mistake. We are really sorry."
Wang Lijuan: "Aunt, why..."
Lin Shu was obviously too embarrassed to admit it. You can see that she was so ashamed and angry that she turned red.
Xu Aihong: "It's all a misunderstanding."
She pulled Wang Lijuan to say goodbye.
But Lin Shu refused to let them go. She drank water tactically to cover up and suppress her passion. Slowly, her skin returned to normal.
She swallowed the red date water and said with emotion: "Today you must tell me who spread the rumor, otherwise I will definitely go to the county revolutionary committee."
If so, Xu Aihong, the director of the Women's Federation, would have no chance to succeed.
However, seeing that Xu Aihong was also responsible and wanted to save women who were abused at home, Lin Shu forgave her.
Xu Aihong did not cover up and told Lin Shu the reason.
It turned out that Qiu Lina went to her the day after the county commendation meeting and vowed that she knew that Lin Shu was abused at home and needed the help of the Women's Federation.
At first, Xu Aihong didn't believe it. After all, she had met Lin Shu several times. She was clean, beautiful, generous and optimistic. She didn't look like
someone who was beaten by her husband. Besides, she had met Lu Shaotang twice. He looked a little serious and cold, but he was actually very well-behaved and polite. He didn't look like someone who would beat his wife.
Qiu Lina said, "Family disgrace should not be made public. Many people who were beaten by men hide it. They say that the slap marks on their faces were caused by accident, and the scratches on their necks were caused by cats."
She also said that everyone knew about it, and the director of the Women's Department had relatives in Lujiazhuang, so she must know it better, and she just helped to cover it up.
Xu Aihong remembered that Qiu Lina knew Lin Shu and Lu Dasao. They went to the city together last year and came to the county together for a meeting this year. Who knows what she really knows.
Could it be that Lin Shu took the initiative to tell her and secretly asked for help? She hoped that Qiu Lina would tell her so that she could help her out?
Lin Shu was married to a military man. If her husband beat her for a long time, she really had no choice but to go to the Women's Federation.
But the county Women's Federation really didn't have the ability to restrain Lu Shaotang. In this case, she could only go to the city... The city wouldn't work either, so she had to go to the provincial Women's Federation.
Xu Aihong thought that she could only go to the city to find the director of the city-level Women's Federation, and then ask the leaders there to go to the director of the provincial Women's Federation together, so that she could have an equal dialogue with Lu Shaotang.
She was a little suspicious after all. After all, Lin Shu looked happy and relaxed. Whether it was Father Lu, Brother Lu, Sister-in-law Lu or the children, they were all very normal. It didn't look like Lin Shu was being abused.
But Qiu Lina's words were convincing, and her tone basically acknowledged what Sister-in-law Lu and Wang Lijuan told her.
Although Xu Aihong felt that Lu Shaotang was not that kind of person, she decided to visit the Lujiazhuang Brigade first based on the principle of killing someone by mistake rather than letting him go. Once she had evidence, she would persuade Lin Shu to go to the Municipal Women's Federation for help. When
she came to Lujiazhuang, she first went to find her niece Wang Lijuan.
Wang Lijuan was feeling depressed, and Zhang Xiuying and Widow Sun started fighting again.
Widow Sun was detained for several days by the commune because of the bald thief. She was sentenced to labor reform in the brigade. She had to do the dirtiest work every day. Now everyone is idle, but she has to clean up the feces in the production team's barn every day.
She was full of resentment, and Zhang Xiuying had fought with her before, and was later robbed by the bald thief, so she hated Widow Sun even more.
When they met, they naturally cursed and spitted.
Widow Sun was also aggrieved, and couldn't help but talk back to Zhang Xiuhua, and then they started fighting.
Wang Lijuan went to mediate the fight, but in the end she was sprayed by the two women together, and they called her the shit-stirring stick of Lujiazhuang.
Wang Lijuan was so aggrieved.
It happened that Xu Aihong came to her to investigate the possibility of domestic violence against Lin Shu.
Wang Lijuan suddenly remembered the private jokes that everyone had made in the summer. Every time Lu Shaotang came home, Lin Shu couldn't get up from the kang, and her body looked lazy and didn't like to move. Some people also said that she had something on her body.
Wang Lijuan became concerned and approached Lin Shu quietly, and she really saw evidence!
Lin Shu took the children to the river to wash the unpacked bedding that day.
She sat on a small stool, and her short-sleeved top swayed up and down with the movement, revealing a section of her snow-white waist.
Wang Lijuan clearly saw bruises on Lin Shu's waist, which was obviously caused by someone beating her!
She paid attention and found that there were marks on the deep part of Lin Shu's neck connected to the shoulder and on the collarbone. There must be more invisible places on her body!
It happened that Lin Shu had a bruise on her arm, so she asked indirectly what happened.
At that time, Lin Shu glanced at Hun and didn't care, saying that she was bitten by a mosquito and pinched herself.
Of course, Lin Shu was embarrassed to tell her that her skin was extremely delicate, and that it would turn red if touched with a little force, and purple if pinched. In fact, it was nothing, and it would fade in two or three days.
Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to say this to a working woman in the countryside? Wouldn't
it make people think that she was showing off or that she was useless?
If Lin Shu didn't say it, Wang Lijuan wouldn't understand. She had no experience. Her skin was yellowish and slightly black, which was a common skin color for women in the countryside. Her skin was also dark in color, not white at all. Bruise marks would only be left if she used a lot of force.
Based on her own experience, she naturally felt that Lin Shu was beaten badly.
But she didn't bother to meddle in other people's business at that time, mainly because she knew that Lu Shaotang was powerful and Fang Dihua was also tough and fierce. If she went to their house and meddle in other people's business, she might not only fail to help Lin Shu but also get beaten.
Another thing is that she secretly observed that Lin Shu was very happy every day, and she didn't look like a woman who was abused. She
secretly investigated and secretly asked Song Chunfang if she heard Lin Shu being beaten behind the house at night.
How could Song Chunfang dare to say it!
Lu Shaotang definitely didn't beat Lin Shu, she must have been beaten by Fang Dihua!
She told Wang Lijuan to listen to it herself in a bad mood.
Wang Lijuan thought that for the sake of work and to save the woman in dire straits, she eavesdropped in this corner.
She didn't like to eavesdrop in the corner, she did it to collect evidence!
Then during that period, Lu Shaotang didn't come back for a while. Wang Lijuan finally waited for him to come back. She was happier than Panpan Tiantian.
She also estimated that Lu Shaotang would not dare to beat his wife before 10 o'clock in the evening, because the family members were not asleep, and he would be embarrassed and afraid of being heard by his family.
After all, cadres have to save face when they are outside.
She tried Lu Laodi and Fang Dihua and felt that they were very upright and would not allow their son to beat his wife.
She used the same method of men beating their wives to test the old couple at that time, pretending to interview other old men and women to ask what they would do if their sons and grandsons beat their wives. Most people said that if the daughter-in-law did something wrong, she should be beaten, and if she didn't beat her, she would not be honest. But Lu Laodi said that you can't beat people no matter what, you have to educate them. If you don't educate them well, you can divorce them and you can't beat people casually.
After 11 o'clock that night, she sneaked to the back of Lu's house. Oh my god! She didn't even stick to the window of Lu's house, but she heard Lin Shu sobbing softly and angrily scolding Lu Shaotang, "Are you a stupid dog? Why are you like this? Don't touch me!"
She approached carefully, but could not hear Lu Shaotang's voice. After a while, she heard Lin Shu screaming in a low voice.
Wang Lijuan felt that she had ironclad evidence: Lin Shu must have been beaten by Lu Shaotang!
Several times she mustered up the courage to talk to Lin Shu, and even wanted to block Lu Shaotang to warn him, but every time she saw him, she was still several meters away. She felt weak in the legs and panic, and dared not get close to him at all, especially when she thought about persuading him not to hit people. What if he got angry and punched her to death?
She didn't dare to tell anyone casually, for fear that Fang Dihua would say she was meddling in other people's business and hitting her.
She didn't even dare to tell Xu Aihong!
So this time when Xu Aihong came to ask her, she suddenly felt that Lu Shaotang's evil deeds could no longer be concealed, and everyone outside knew that he beat his wife.
It was as if the sword of justice had finally descended to judge this man who appeared to be cold and serious but was actually cruel to his wife!
She told Xu Aihong what she knew, and when she repeated it, she inevitably added her subjective judgment and exaggerated it. Didn't Xu Aihong... take it seriously?
As a result, Xu Aihong really wanted to strangle her to death. How could you be so stupid?
After hearing their reasons, Lin Shu was really... speechless, and even had the urge to silence them.
Damn it, she knew that the villagers liked to eavesdrop, but she didn't expect that anyone would dare to listen to her!
Doesn't the mother-in-law's beating of Song Chunfang have any intimidation?
Then she and Lu Shaotang... Damn, they are so socially dead!
She decided to go to Qizhou immediately and leave Lujiazhuang forever and never come back, so that people would not see her and think that she had done something with Lu Shaotang at night.
Xu Aihong was so embarrassed that she apologized to Lin Shu and asked her not to tell her family, especially Lu Shaotang, otherwise it would be... too...
Xu Aihong had never made such a big oolong in all her years of work.
It was simply... I wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Seeing her so embarrassed and embarrassed, Lin Shu's own embarrassment was miraculously cured.
Yes, as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
They eavesdropped on me, misunderstood me, and made an oolong in front of me. They should be embarrassed, not me.
Lin Shu: "Director Xu, please go back and criticize Qiu Lina. She must be punished."
If Qiu Lina hadn't spread the rumor, Xu Aihong wouldn't have meddled in her business. If Xu Aihong hadn't asked, Wang Lijuan wouldn't have dared to say it, so she wouldn't have known and wouldn't have been embarrassed.
She couldn't blame Xu Aihong and Wang Lijuan for doing things with good intentions, so she naturally had to double her anger on Qiu Lina who spread the rumor.
Xu Aihong apologized again and again, then took Wang Lijuan and hurriedly left the Lu family.
When they reached a secluded place, Wang Lijuan was still a little unconvinced, "Auntie, what's the matter?"
Xu Aihong was so angry that she hit her twice, "Are you stupid? You're married and have children, how come you don't know anything?"
Wang Lijuan: "How could I not know? I heard it so clearly..."
"Bullshit!" Xu Aihong was really angry, this...how could she be a fool.
Wang Lijuan felt very aggrieved. Why did her aunt speak up for Lu Shaotang? Let’s not pursue it?
Seeing that she really didn’t understand, Xu Aihong had to explain it to her in detail.
Wang Lijuan was confused and couldn’t believe it. “Aunt, are you serious? How can you do that...like that? Why don’t I believe it?”
Xu Aihong: “You weren’t like that when you just got married?”
Young people are full of blood and energy. When they just got married, they wanted to stay up all night. It would take at least two or three months for them to get tired of
it. Wang Lijuan shook her head. “No, why...it’s still like that?”
Xu Aihong felt something was wrong and asked her how her married life was.
Wang Lijuan: "That's it, what else can I do?"
Xu Aihong asked carefully and found out that when Wang Lijuan just got married, the man was... not very good. Except for the first time, she felt something, but she didn't feel anything afterwards.
She had never been in contact with other men, so of course she didn't understand, thinking that everyone was like this.
Besides, she also gave birth to a child, which proved that the man was normal.
It's just that they had less sex after giving birth to the child, so she really didn't have any experience, thinking that everyone just had to do it a few times.
Xu Aihong was speechless. So you, the director of the Women's Department, don't know anything?
She decisively took Wang Lijuan to the county to settle accounts with Qiu Lina, and on the way, she gave Wang Lijuan a sex life popularization.
She was so embarrassed!
Xu Aihong and the others did not find Qiu Lina because she was detained by the Public Security Bureau.
Qiu Lina was detained for attempting to murder the family members of military officers and creating chaos to disrupt the important work of relevant personnel.
Lin Shu was disgusted and stewed meat at home! She
originally planned to stew it after Lu Shaotang came back in two days, but now she had to eat meat to make up for her emotional injury.
Panpan and Tiantian didn't know that Xu Aihong and Wang Lijuan came to slander their father, because they went to the top of the road every day to look forward to their father's return home since their aunt's family returned to Qizhou.
In the evening, when the setting sun turned into a red salted duck egg yolk in the west, the two children were finally brought back by Lu Shaotang.
Lu Shaotang stepped on the accelerator and stopped at the side of the road. He got out of the car, opened the door and wanted to carry the two children to the back seat. However, Panpan, whose hands and feet were now more flexible and powerful, climbed onto his shoulders, hooked her arms around his neck, and clamped her arms with her short legs.
Lu Shaotang: "..."
He lowered his eyes to look at his daughter on the ground, who was hugging his thighs anxiously, "I, I'm still there!"
Lu Shaotang carried his son in one hand, leaned over and picked up his daughter again, shook them up, and held them both in one hand like he did last year.
It was so heavy that it weighed on his hands.
The two children hugged their father in the cold wind under the setting sun, and their faces blushed from Lu Shaotang's kisses.
Finally, Lu Shaotang decisively stuffed them into the car and stepped on the accelerator to go home.
They smelled the delicious aroma of meat before they even entered the house.
Lu Shaotang took his two children home and went into the house to find his wife first.
Lin Shu was surprised and asked, "Why did you come back early?"
Originally, Lu Shaotang said that he would be back in two days.
Lu Shaotang glanced at her and asked, "Is there anything wrong at home recently?"
Lin Shu wondered, what kind of things at home can you take care of? He never cared about family affairs before, whether it was the brigade or the family. Anyway, the brigade had cadres and the family had parents, so it was not his turn to take care of it.
There was nothing so big that his parents could not solve it.
Lu Shaotang thought that maybe Ke Cheng handled it in time and it did not affect his wife, so he was relieved.
Lin Shu exclaimed, "You know about that?"
Lu Shaotang: "Yeah."
Lin Shu: "Isn't it infuriating? This person can make up stories out of nothing. If there is no price to pay for making up rumors, these people will never be able to control their mouths." Tiantian
and Panpan looked at their father and mother. What are they talking about? Why don't we know what to talk about?
The two children didn't even bother to ask about Xiao Houwei and others, and just hugged Lu Shaotang's neck to ask what he was talking about.
Lu Shaotang: "Talking about work, children can't know, take me to see your little rabbits."
The other two female rabbits also gave birth to little rabbits, and they can be sold when they are one month old.
The two children have been entrusted to their grandma and brothers and sisters. If they and their mother don't come back, let grandma have full authority to sell them.
The two children told Lu Shaotang that they should keep one male and one female from the two litters of rabbits as breeding rabbits.
"This is called eugenics!" They both understood it now.
Lu Shaotang laughed.
His son and daughter were nothing like he was when he was a child. They were neither stubborn nor naughty, but so well-behaved and sensible that he found it incredible.
They must have taken after their mother.
It is said that she was very timid when she was a child, and she was almost like this when she was balanced with him?
When everyone was having dinner in the evening, they all thought that they could eat meat because of Lu Shaotang.
Lu An said happily, "Auntie, the meat stewed tonight is especially delicious."
He asked Lu Shaotang and Hou Bo what they were doing.
In the past, he didn't dare to take the initiative to talk to Lu Shaotang, but as Lu Shaotang came back more and more often, sometimes he would exercise with his uncle in the morning, and he found that his uncle was not as serious and scary as he imagined.
He just had a habit of keeping a straight face and no expression. If you talk to him, he is actually very gentle. Even if you say something wrong, his uncle will not criticize you, let alone scold you.
He has never seen his uncle lose his temper at home, let alone scold or beat anyone.
In addition, he is close to Hou Bo and has a good relationship with him. After that, he is happier, more confident, and braver than before, and is no longer afraid of anything.
He dares to talk to Lu Shaotang even more.
Lu Shaotang had already told Tiantian and Panpan before, and he did not bother to tell Lu An and the others again. He also helped Hou Ying to pass a message to Lu Xiuxiu, and helped Sister Lin and Hou Jianwen to pass a message to their families.
Seeing Lu Shaotang, who was usually not good at chatting, chatting with his family tonight, although it was a way of reporting work, it was quite special.
Lin Shu sat next to him and smiled.
Lu Shaotang turned his head and lowered his eyes to look at her, picked up a piece of good pork belly for her, and said softly: "Sister is waiting for you."
Lin Shu: "I'll go with you this time."
Lu Shaotang said: "Let's go to the county tomorrow."
He didn't say what he was going to do. Lin Shu roughly guessed that it was about Qiu Lina's rumor, so she naturally agreed.
The family members were used to Lu Shaotang only telling them what he did but not explaining why, and they were used to not asking about his affairs.
Panpan and Tiantian quickly asked when their parents would be back, and told them not to go to the province by themselves.
They were relieved to know that they were just going to the county to do some work. Tomorrow they would just explain to their friends and family members and entrust Tutu to them.
Fang Dihua joked that they were little housekeepers and that they were not too old to worry about things, but they happily called themselves big housekeepers.
After dinner, everyone chatted for a while, and around nine o'clock, they washed up and went back to their rooms to rest.
Lin Shu, however, lay at the back window of the main room and listened to the movements behind. If it wasn't too cold outside, she would have wanted to go on patrol to see who dared to eavesdrop.
Lu Shaotang asked in confusion, "Is there a situation?"
Lin Shu curled her lips and glared at him unhappily, "Hmph!"
She went back to the room and went to sleep on the kang.
As long as Lu Shaotang goes home when Panpan and Tiantian are awake, he can basically enjoy the world of the couple, and the two children will take the initiative to find grandpa to sleep.
Because grandma said that daddy's snoring when he sleeps may disturb them, and also said that daddy's sleeping posture is more dishonest than Panpan and will hit them, so she let them go to grandpa to sleep at night.
Although Panpan does not admit that he is not honest when sleeping, and has never seen how daddy sleeps, but he believes grandpa's words.
Anyway, he can be close to daddy during the day, and they should sleep separately at night. Although
his son is so sensible, Lu Shaotang was depressed to find that he was forced to be a vegetarian tonight!
His wife disagrees!
No matter how he coaxes her, his wife just disagrees.
Lin Shu is in a shadow and always feels that someone is hiding and eavesdropping behind the back window. Although she knows with wisdom that there will be no one now, she also... feels embarrassed and ashamed.
She is also embarrassed to tell Lu Shaotang.
The couple couldn't sleep and talked about the topic of Lu Shaotang beating his wife.
Lu Shaotang was speechless, "Qiu Lina and the director of the women's department spread rumors about me like this?"
He was very confused about how he offended Qiu Lina. He didn't know her at all, never met her or talked to her.
Lin Shu didn't know how she offended her. She and Qiu Lina didn't get along when they went to the city on May Day. She obviously felt that Qiu Lina was targeting her.
Although the two sat close to each other this time, they didn't say much. Qiu Lina looked at him with a strange look the whole time.
Could it be... because of Wei Lan?
Lin Shu saw her take the initiative to talk to Wei Lan several times, and the look she gave Wei Lan was also eager and admiring, similar to the way Lu Hehuan looked at Xu Shihua. That kind of admiration couldn't be hidden.
But she has a husband, and there is nothing special between her and Wei Lan, and she is not a stepping stone for her to pursue Wei Lan. Why does she hate herself?
Even if Wei Lan rejected her, it was not her fault, right?
She asked, "Did you come back early because you received the news that they spread rumors about you?"
Lu Shaotang: "Yes."
In fact, the news he received was that Qiu Lina wanted to murder his family, trying to disturb his mind and affect his work, and there might be hidden malice.
The subtext was that Qiu Lina and Zhou Qiaofeng might be in cahoots.
So he didn't know at all that Qiu Lina also spread rumors that he beat his wife, and even reported it to the Women's Federation, causing the director of the Women's Federation to visit the countryside for investigation.
Lu Shaotang felt that he was seriously slandered and hurt.
They could accuse him of corruption, abuse of power, revenge, etc. He didn't care, but they actually spread rumors that he beat his wife!
Is he the kind of person who doesn't seem to love his wife?
What kind of misconception did he give to others that made them think he would beat his wife?
It must be that he didn't love her obviously enough!
In the days to come, he must make sure that everyone around him can feel his love for his wife!
But how to show his love for his wife, his knowledge about this is a little poor and not rich enough.
He took a notebook and made a study plan, intending to learn from his parents, the branch secretary, the team leader and others about how to love his wife, especially those loving couples, and he would learn from them whenever he had time.
His biological clock woke him up early in the morning. He wanted to wake up, but then he thought that he should be nicer to his wife and love her well, so... should he start by warming her bed?
The kang was cold in the morning. Lin Shu was afraid of the cold, so she would always subconsciously get into his arms at night to absorb the heat from his body.
Now she was sleeping softly and sweetly in his arms.
Lu Shaotang felt a little...uncomfortable.
It was too torturous.
Lin Shu didn't feel tired last night. She slept very soundly while holding the warm human-shaped baby, so she woke up early.
She opened her sleepy eyes, her gaze was full of laziness, and met Lu Shaotang's dark and deep eyes, and said hoarsely: "Lu Shaotang, good morning."
Lu Shaotang came forward and kissed her, "Good morning, wife."
Lin Shu looked at the brightness of the window paper, which was past the time Lu Shaotang usually got up, "Why haven't you gotten up to exercise yet?"
Lu Shaotang: "No exercise today, accompany my wife."
Lin Shu: "..."
Director Lu wouldn't be unsatisfied and have any bad ideas, right?
She felt that it was a bit dangerous to lie in bed with an unsatisfied man early in the morning, so she thought of it.
Lu Shaotang hugged her, rubbed her, and said softly: "Sleep a little longer, don't you usually sleep a lot?"
Every time he came home, Lin Shu couldn't get up. He could hardly see Lin Shu when she got up early, so he thought his wife liked to sleep, so of course he had to let her sleep more.
Lin Shu: "I'll go cook and make some porridge."
If there is enough time, she will cook porridge. In the morning, she would cook a few eggs and drink some millet porridge. It was warm and comfortable.
Lu Shaotang kissed her, "It's still early, you sleep a little longer, I'll go cook."
Lu Shaotang got up quietly and went downstairs to make breakfast for his family.
Fang Dihua and Old Man Lu got up and saw him busy making breakfast. Fang Dihua said, "Okay, go do your thing, I'll do it."
Lu Shaotang: "Mom, let me do it. I want to learn how to cook more. I'll cook for them when I go to the provincial capital in the future."
He couldn't always let his wife cook for him. He also wanted to cook for his wife and children. This was a manifestation of his love for his wife without asking for advice from others.
Fang Dihua looked at him suspiciously. This huge change before and after... It was a bit like the third daughter-in-law at the beginning. Could it be that the third daughter-in-law finally brought the third son to Teacher Ma's class? Lu Shaotang's active and gentle tone made Fang Dihua feel very corny. She
shuddered and hurried out. I can't stand it anymore. Lin Shu couldn't lie down anymore and got up quickly. She decided that from now on, she would get up early when Lu Shaotang came home, and get up late when Lu Shaotang didn't come home. No one would doubt it this way, right? After eating Lu Shaotang's loving breakfast and repeatedly assuring the children that she would be back in the afternoon after work, Lin Shu took a car with Lu Shaotang to the county. When they arrived at the county revolutionary committee, Lu Shaotang got out of the car to help Lin Shu open the door, and held her hand to get out of the car. Lin Shu: "..." What's going on? Lu Shaotang was a little bit strange. He used to open the door for her and the children, because the door of his jeep was very tight and he couldn't open it with his lack of strength. But there was no habit of holding hands in public, right? Besides, the super luxurious villa she dug out with her toes yesterday has not been demolished yet, and he held her hand in public again. Is he going to build her another one? People might even accuse him of acting, just like modern celebrity couples who immediately show off their affection when there are rumors of cheating or breaking up. Lu Shaotang always takes his wife's opinion seriously. If she doesn't want to, he will subconsciously let go and won't force her, but he will stand closer to her than before. The people of the Revolutionary Committee looked at them with surprise, envy, and curiosity. "Is that Lin Xianjin from Lujiazhuang and her husband?" "Yes, it's Lu Shaotang who was chased by someone at the train station to catch his son-in-law. Don't you know him?" "It's the first time I see him in person. He's so handsome!" "They are a perfect match, both the man and the woman are handsome." Lu Shaotang didn't feel anything when people praised him for his handsomeness, but when he heard people say that the couple were a perfect match, he felt secretly happy. How could his wife like another man! Wei Lan, Wu Xuan, etc... Wei Lan, he knew her. When he came back, he heard Wei Lan confessing to his wife and being rejected from the hotel window. He led Lin Shu straight to the Women's Federation office. Lin Shu thought that he probably wanted to confront Xu Aihong and it was no wonder, since no one could be blamed and wipe it off calmly as if nothing had happened.
He is a man with temper, and it is normal for him to reason with others.
Xu Aihong brought Wang Lijuan to the county yesterday and went to find Qiu Lina first. As a result, the other party was detained. She knew that the matter might be serious.
Originally, she felt embarrassed and ashamed. She didn't want to come to the unit today but went to other communes to inspect the work in the countryside. Later, she thought about it and decided that she should write a detailed work report immediately to clarify the matter.
Not only will it clear the innocence of Lu Shaotang and Lin Shu, but it will also give herself and Wang Lijuan a chance.
When she was considering the wording, she saw a handsome and tall man coming with his beautiful and charming young wife.
Xu Aihong stood up subconsciously, stood at attention, tightened her abdomen, squeezed her buttocks, straightened her back, and greeted them enthusiastically, "Comrade Lu, Comrade Lin, you are here."
I'm afraid you are not here to call me to task, right?
Lu Shaotang looked more serious than ever before, his eyes focused, his voice deep, "Director Xu, I came here specially to clarify to the Women's Federation, I, Lu Shaotang, only love my wife, no matter what the circumstances will not hit or scold my wife."
Xu Aihong's old face flushed with embarrassment, and she apologized repeatedly, "Comrade Lu, Comrade Lin, I'm really sorry, I didn't investigate..."
Lu Shaotang said seriously, "No, Director Xu went to the countryside to investigate with a serious work attitude, I am very grateful."
As he said that, he took out a folded paper from his pocket and handed it over, "This is my letter of guarantee to the Women's Federation."
Xu Aihong: "???"
Lin Shu: "!!"
What letter of guarantee? How come I don't know.
Xu Aihong unfolded it and saw that it was actually a letter of guarantee written by Lu Shaotang. He promised to respect and love his wife and would never beat or scold her under any circumstances. He asked the Women's Federation to supervise.
