Luo Yan broke free from Hua Li's embrace and ran over, where she was held on Sun Bailing's lap. She poked at the account book in Sun Bailing's hand with her little hand, "Food, food!"
You take other people's money to do good deeds, while their wives and children go hungry. Is that doing good deeds? Ha, it's more like doing something immoral.
Sun Bailing looked at Luo Yan's thin, bony hands, then at the numerous expenditures of tens of yuan in the ledger, and instantly realized what was happening.
Sun Bailing slammed the ledger on the table and took out a White Rabbit milk candy from his pocket to feed Luo Yan.
Luo Yan took the candy that was offered to her mouth, ran back to Hua Li's side, and stuffed the candy into Hua Li's mouth.
"Mom, eat it, and you won't get sick."
Sun Bailing's gaze followed Luo Yan's, and when he saw that the mother and daughter were both so thin they looked like refugees, he slammed his hand on the table.
"Comrade Liu Jingqiu, doing good deeds is indeed commendable, but no one will support you using other people's money to be generous with other people's money. This matter ends here..."
Sun Bailing looked at Luo Shicheng with a stern expression.
“From today onwards, your allowance of one hundred taels of silver will be given to Comrade Hua Li. Also, the work of the supply and marketing cooperative must be returned to Comrade Hua Li.”
As for Comrade Liu Jingqiu's work, I will make other arrangements.
Wow, Grandpa Sun is really amazing, he absolutely deserves to be her grandfather.
Luo Yan fed the candy to Hua Li, who was crying incessantly, to prevent Hua Li from fainting again due to low blood sugar.
"Grandpa, Grandpa..."
Running back to Sun Bailing's side, Luo Yan threw herself into his arms, hugging his neck with her little hands and affectionately calling him "Grandpa."
"Grandpa, Yan Yan loves Grandpa."
Sun Bailing was captivated by Luo Yan's repeated calls of "Grandpa." His smiling face was a kind of gentleness that Luo Shicheng had never seen before, while Luo Shicheng's gaze towards Luo Yan was scrutinizing.
Liu Jingqiu was furious. She had prepared for so long, even preparing her account book in advance. Even if she couldn't get a certificate for good deeds from Sun Bailing, she could at least keep her job and get some more subsidies from Luo Shicheng.
As a result, just because Luo Yan said "Fanfan plus Grandpa", she lost her job and Luo Shicheng's subsidies. How are she and Xiaotong supposed to live in the future?
Liu Jingqiu's sinister gaze fell on Luo Yan, and she gritted her teeth in agreement.
“I didn’t expect Comrade Hua Li to give up his job to me while he himself was living such a hard life, his child was starving and needed outsiders to subsidize his food expenses. It was indeed my fault. I will go back and tell the leaders to give up the job to Comrade Hua Li.”
These words sound like obedience to Sun Bailing's orders, but if Hua Li and her daughter are starving like this without work, how much better off can Liu Jingqiu be?
Moreover, when the child was starving, someone secretly sent money to Hua Li. What was the relationship between this person and the child? Anyone with a modicum of sense would have to think about it.
What do you mean by giving the job to Hua Li? That was Hua Li's job to begin with, wasn't it?
Oh dear, the green tea smell is so strong it almost knocked Luo Yan over.
Upon hearing the words "subsidies for outsiders," Luo Shicheng's face darkened immediately, and he said to Liu Jingqiu.
“I agreed to give you the job. Besides, I give her 100 yuan every month. Even if she doesn’t work, she and the child won’t go hungry. Just focus on working at the supply and marketing cooperative and take good care of Xiaotong. You don’t need to worry about anything else.”
The leader's words were rejected on the spot; that scumbag father has extraordinary audacity.
However, it's likely that the fifty yuan made her father suspicious, and he suspected that she was someone else's child, which is why he wanted to go against Sun Bailing.
After all, he was her own father, and she would have to rely on him for her future. Luo Yan continued to observe the situation.
Sun Bailing angrily pointed at Luo Shicheng.
"Luo Shicheng, you've got some nerve, haven't you...?"
"I'm not your parents. Once I've made a decision, you have no say in it. I said the job must be returned to Comrade Hua Li, and you can keep your complaints to yourself."
Grandpa looked like a hero descending from the sky on auspicious seven-colored clouds! Luo Yan's mouth formed an "O" shape.
Although she looks pitiful now, what does that have to do with Sun Bailing? It just shows that Sun Bailing is a kind-hearted person who felt sorry for her, which is why he helped the mother and daughter like this.
This time, Luo Yan truly called out from the bottom of her heart, "Grandpa!"
Luo Yan gently patted Sun Bailing's chest with her small hand, her concern in her eyes sincere and touching.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, Grandpa is good."
This child is so sensible and filial, much better than his family's bald-headed sons. Sun Bailing's usually stern face instantly blossomed into a smile.
Hua Li was crying her heart out when she saw her daughter coaxing Sun Bailing, who not only got her job back but also got Luo Shicheng to promise her 100 yuan a month.
Her three-and-a-half-year-old daughter had done everything in her power to fight for her. If she, as a mother, continued to be weak, how could she face her daughter?
Hua Li swallowed the candy in his mouth, felt a surge of strength, and stood up abruptly from the sofa, bowing deeply to Sun Bailing.
As she straightened up, Hua Li burst into tears.
"Thank you for taking charge for me, leader."
But I must say here that I was truly framed.
Also, Comrade Luo Shicheng, no matter how dissatisfied you are with me, the child is innocent, so I must come back to work.
As for the person who gave me fifty yuan, I really don't know him, and he has only given me money this time; he has never done so before.
I assure you, I will find a way to locate this person, uncover the truth of what happened back then, clear my name, and never let you down.
Sun Bailing had initially thought Hua Li was hopeless and was worried about the young Luo Yan, but now he was deeply gratified to hear Hua Li's words.
"good……"
Sun Bailing nodded, speaking to Hua Li, but his gaze was fixed on Luo Shicheng.
"Young people are bound to make mistakes. A good comrade is one who can admit his mistakes and correct them. I hope you can forgive Comrade Luo Shicheng and give the children a complete family."
Luo Shicheng, are you talking about Hua Li or me? Besides, he's not a sucker, why should he help raise someone else's child?
He was deaf and could not hear, so Luo Shicheng refused to respond.
The spineless mother finally showed some backbone, but the scumbag father looked very angry, probably still misunderstanding that Hua Li had cheated on him. Luo Yan's eyes darted around.
"It itches..." Luo Yan kept scratching the back of her neck with her little hands.
Hua Li quickly took Luo Yan from Sun Bailing's hands, raised her hand to block Luo Yan's scratches, and gently rubbed her with her fingertips.
Luo Shicheng immediately noticed the birthmark on the back of Luo Yan's neck; its shape and color resembled a mark left by a beak.
This pinkish-red birthmark is called a stork's kiss mark. It will gradually disappear as you get older. Now, the same spot is only the size of a fingernail, and you can't see it at all unless you look closely.
Is it really such a coincidence that it's Hua Li?
Why did the man with the yellow teeth give money to Hua Li?
Luo Shicheng was at a loss for words, his brows furrowed in confusion.
Liu Jingqiu also noticed the birthmark on the back of Luo Yan's neck and exclaimed in surprise.
"I heard from Sister Wu that the man wasn't dressed properly, and you could see a bright red birthmark on the back of his neck. How come Yan Yan has one too?"
