1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 120 Call the Police to Arrest Me
"In recent years, we often hear that she has won this honor or that award. Now she has become the mainstay of the radio station. Her mother-in-law is very dissatisfied, but she can't do anything about it. Wang Manzhi's monthly salary is not low!"

When Wang Jinglian was talking excitedly, her expression was exactly the same as Xiaodong's. Lu Youyou couldn't help laughing. The mother and son were so alike.

"Her family doesn't seem to have a strong background. She's achieved what she has today entirely on her own." Wang Jinglian praised him, but her expression wasn't very pleasant. "She should understand how difficult it is for women, but why is she treating her own daughter like this?"

Of course Lu Youyou couldn't answer this kind of question.

Maybe Wang Manzhi was born to dislike children, maybe she was a person who favored boys over girls, or maybe there was some other strange reason.

Anyway, there is no need to take an exam to become a parent, so you can have children whether the child is suitable or not.

Wang Jinglian moved closer and whispered, "Auntie Zhang, who lives across from me, used to be a midwife. She said a long time ago that Wang Manzhi didn't take good care of herself during her last confinement, otherwise this pregnancy wouldn't have been so difficult."

If it weren't for her image, Lu Youyou would have already brought out the peanuts and melon seeds. Wang Jinglian kept adding one dish after another, and she felt overwhelmed if she didn't eat something.

"If you ask me, she's just too proud and too strong-willed. Can't she take a leave when her health is so poor? If she wants to work, why doesn't she just recover before getting pregnant? What if she gives birth to another daughter? Is she going to just abandon her and not care about anything else?"

Lu Youyou could tell that Wang Jinglian looked down on Wang Manzhi. Looking at Xiaodong, she knew that his family must be harmonious and loving. Giving birth to a child but not raising it would be absolutely impossible in his family.

Wang Jinglian really wanted to have another daughter, but she hadn't been able to conceive since she gave birth to Xiaodong. She had watched Qiu grow up, and she felt bad seeing such a well-behaved girl living such a miserable life. She looked down on Wang Manzhi even more.

At first, she was worried that Shen Xianling would work with Wu Weimin, which would make her very uncomfortable. If Wu Weimin became the team leader, she would have to bite the bullet and contact the Wu family in the future.

Fortunately, Gu Qingye showed up out of nowhere, and with him came the kind and generous Lu Youyou. Wang Jinglian couldn't be more satisfied.

Although the child's father was exhausted every day when he got home, he was full of praise when he mentioned Gu Qingye, saying that he was much better than Wu Weimin, who had a relationship with him.

A strong soldier makes a strong general. With a strong captain who gets things done, the instructor's job will be much easier. Since it concerns her husband's future, Wang Jinglian has even less reason to dislike Lu Youyou.

"By the way, are you going to the beach tomorrow? There will be a high tide tomorrow, so there will definitely be a lot of good things." Wang Jinglian asked.

Lu Youyou hasn't been to the beach since the last time. Gu Qingye goes out early and comes back late every day, and she picks up so much that she can't finish eating it.

But last time, she was forced to give up before she could fully satisfy her desire to "get something for nothing". When she heard that there would be a tide tomorrow, she agreed: "Okay, how about leaving in the early morning?"

"No, the low tide comes at different times. We can leave later tomorrow, at 7 o'clock..."

"Where have you been hiding again, you little bitch? You didn't even wash the dishes or hang out the clothes. You've been lying around for days just because of a little cut on your leg. Are you still waiting for me to serve you, you useless bitch?"

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by familiar insults. She knew without even looking that it was Old Lady Wu causing trouble again.

Wang Jinglian frowned and said angrily, "If her family wasn't surnamed Wu, I would have reported them to the Women's Federation. How could they treat a child like this? They're not so poor that they can't even afford to eat. Her parents have such high salaries, how could they not have room for a little girl?"

Although Wang Jinglian's voice was not loud, the fence could not block the old woman's sight. She saw Lu Youyou and Wang Jinglian here before she saw Qiu.

The old woman had never suffered any loss in the family compound. She was still very angry about the last time she was bullied by Lu Youyou and his wife, so she immediately turned the gun around and started cursing.

"Isn't this the captain's wife who always meddles in other people's affairs? If it were you, the family compound should have the railings removed and a brick wall built. Otherwise, some people will spend all day staring at other people's homes instead of doing their jobs. Your man is just a captain, but he has such long arms. If he gets cut all over, he'll probably have to get injections every day!"

Old Mrs. Wu would remember the word "tetanus" for the rest of her life. She refused to spend a penny on a losing product. She was heartbroken from the injections and medication. Wang Jinglian was furious. Had their kindness led to something wrong?!

"Auntie Wu, we're just talking in our own yard. It doesn't bother you. Why are you saying all this?"

Old Mrs. Wu didn't originally intend to do anything to Wang Jinglian, but she ended up showing up at her doorstep.

"When is it your turn to say what I do? Your husband is Shen Xianling, right? He has no say over me, so why do you have to force yourself to intervene?"

Wang Jinglian wanted to have a quarrel, but the old woman was old and had connections with her boss, so she had to swallow back whatever she wanted to say.

Lu Youyou stood up and fixed his gaze on Old Lady Wu's face.

"Old lady, if you really can't stand it, you can call the police directly. I'm always here to serve you. As for the courtyard wall, I also hope to build a wall, and it would be better to add a roof. That way I don't have to listen to your foul language every day. I couldn't ask for more."

The old woman was at a loss for words. She had never heard such a polite way of cursing in her life, but her instinct told her that it was not a good thing, so she chose to use all her strength, with a fiercer look and a louder voice.

"What are you talking about? Calling the police? Do you think I wouldn't dare? There's an inspection team right here. You think you're right to disrespect the elderly?!"

"Comrade Lu, don't you understand the saying 'one step back, the sky is wider'? He's trying to argue with an old man. It seems Comrade Lu's cultivation is just average!"

Suddenly another voice joined the battle. It was Wu Baozhu, who had not been seen for a long time.

Wu Baozhu's family got a few old mountain ginseng roots, and her father insisted that she send one over. She was very reluctant at first, but she didn't expect to encounter a heated scene as soon as she arrived.

Ever since she met Lu Youyou by chance on the boat, she felt that she had lost face and made a fuss at home for several days, avoiding Lu Youyou for several days.

Wu Baozhu was too proud to tolerate this. If she endured it for a while, she would definitely get it back tenfold or a hundredfold.

As a result, Lu Youyou didn't go out at all. Wu Baozhu would never do something like getting up early and going to bed late to catch seafood. A month passed like this, and she couldn't find any opportunity to vent her anger.

She finally managed to catch Lu Youyou's handle, how could she let it go? She didn't expect much, as long as Lu Youyou was embarrassed.

She didn't bother to care about the cause and effect. It was pointless for a younger generation to argue with an old lady in her sixties or seventies.

Lu Youyou was not angry at all, and even felt like laughing.

I have never heard that a niece can inherit the genes of her aunt. Wu Baozhu's way of being unreasonable and scolding her husband is exactly what Old Lady Wu has inherited.

Except for Cao Xiangdong and Qiu Tian, ​​there may be no normal person in this family, whether direct or collateral.

A faint smile appeared on Lu Youyou's indifferent face.

"One step back, the sky will be clear. You guys can retreat, but I won't."
