The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

While Ye Zhao and the other person were talking, Li Tian and the others had already entered the room.

"Dad, my brother called. He has to go on a mission and won't be able to come home for a while, nor will he be able to contact us again."

Li Shengli nodded, indicating that he understood.

This is normal for professional soldiers; it's the same as anyone else going on a business trip, nothing to worry about.

The key issue is that worrying is useless; you don't even know where the person is.

The next day, Ye Zhao cooked breakfast.

Aunt Zhang left very early; in any case, when everyone got up, no one saw her.

After breakfast, the two who had to go to school left on time.

When Guo Lin saw Li Tian on the way, he held his head high with arrogance.

Li Tian rolled her eyes and ignored him completely.

"Aunt Ye, Li Tian is a girl, it's better if she's gentler, we need to keep a closer eye on her."

Ye Zhao glanced at Guo Lin's mother and said indifferently, "The descendants of military generals must have backbone, and my granddaughter is just like that."

"Guo Lin, on the other hand, lacks manners and etiquette, and has become more of a spoiled brat. He's a sapling; he needs to be properly trained."

Li Tian glanced at Guo Lin's mother.

She's quite alluring.

However, her face was a little red at the moment, probably because she was angry.

They dared to challenge Ye Zhao, but in terms of sheer presence, they were worlds apart.

Moreover, where would a junior who is in the wrong get the guts?

Ye Zhao pulled Li Tian along and walked forward calmly.

Li Tian, ​​excited, straightened her back ramrod straight.

If Ye Zhao hadn't been by her side, she would have walked with an air of indifference, as if she didn't recognize anyone.

Having confidence makes all the difference.

That was fucking awesome!

Perhaps because Guo Lin's mother had been rebuffed that morning, Guo Lin didn't cause any more trouble for Li Tian and the others that day.

Without any trouble, Li Tian lived a very comfortable life.

He still daydreams during class.

After finishing her homework in a few quick strokes, she started doodling on her notebook.

It's just random scribbling.

Draw whatever comes to mind.

She just wanted to be a child and enjoy the good life.

When you're in a good mood, the days go by quickly, and before you know it, it's time to get out of school.

"Grandma, what are we having for dinner?"

Are you hungry?

"A little."

"Xiao Zhang hasn't come back yet, Grandma should keep things simple."

"Is Aunt Zhang not coming back today?"

Ye Zhao looked worried. "I don't know. She said she was going to buy crabs, but she's been gone all day and we haven't seen her yet."

Buying crabs?

Is it about what the two of them were talking about last night?

Could it be that Aunt Zhang encountered some historical event?

The phrase "crabs from Beijing in the 1980s" has become a popular Chinese proverb.

Li Tian thought about it more and more and it seemed very possible.

"Old Ye, your housekeeper hasn't come back either?"

Ye Zhao looked at Grandma Zhu Nan, "No, did your family also go to steal crabs?"

"Yeah! We haven't seen a soul all day."

"Mine is too."

"And mine too."

……

The parents who came to pick up their children all chimed in.

Ye Zhao felt a little anxious as she thought about the upcoming National Day holiday.

"Let's go and tell the security department. This could be a big deal or a small deal, so we mustn't let it cause any trouble."

"Yes, I should say so."

Everyone is aware of this.

Li Tian had no way to stop it, nor any reason to stop it.

Ye Zhao and the others didn't have time to send the children back, so they took them directly to the compound's security office.

It's impossible to explain clearly with everyone talking at once, so Ye Zhao, as the representative, recounted what happened.

The officer on duty took the matter very seriously after hearing it.

But they couldn't make the decision on their own, so they immediately called to ask for instructions.

The nannies in the compound are all subject to rigorous screening, and no mistakes can be tolerated.

"Comrades, please don't worry. Everyone go back and wait for news. We will send someone to the market immediately to verify the situation."

The matter has already been reported and the organization has taken action, so they have nothing to worry about.

The group dispersed as they talked.

Since Aunt Zhang wasn't home and the two children were hungry, Ye Zhao made noodles with soybean paste.

This meal is convenient, quick, and no one will complain about the taste.

The family had just put down their bowls and chopsticks when they heard a commotion in the yard.

Li Zilong, being the fastest on his feet, was sent to gather intelligence.

Are you Aunt Zhang?

A woman with disheveled hair, one bare foot, and torn clothes stood in the courtyard.

Li Zilong didn't dare to admit it.

"Zilong, it's me. I'm too dirty to come inside..."

Ye Zhao, who followed later, was startled.

"What happened?! Were you robbed?"

"No, no!"

Aunt Zhang waved her hands repeatedly, her throat so dry she could barely speak.

Ye Zhao couldn't bear it. "Let's talk later. Go wash up and change your clothes first. I'll cook you some noodles."

"Thank you, sir."

Aunt Zhang wiped away her tears and bowed.

Ye Zhao waved her hand and went inside first.

After Zhang Sao drank some water and wolfed down a bowl of noodles, she finally had the strength to recount her day's ordeal.

He started sobbing before he could even open his mouth.

"Sir, I regret it so much! I should have listened to you and not been greedy for this advantage!"

"There were more people queuing up than crabs! It was a huge crowd, you couldn't see the beginning or the end."

"When we tried to get out later, we couldn't move at all; we were stuck in the line and pushed forward... In the end, we didn't even see a single crab leg..."

"Even so, there are still people cutting in line and fighting. It's incredibly chaotic, and just thinking about it is terrifying..."

After listening, Li Shengli lowered his head and left.

It's all because of poverty.

The people are suffering!

Ye Zhao felt particularly uncomfortable, but she still pressed on, "Have all the others who went with you returned?"

Aunt Zhang nodded quickly.

"We're all back. When we saw the situation was bad, we held hands and didn't get separated. We're just a bit disheveled and have been hungry ever since."

"Did you see the security officer?"

"We saw them, and they even asked them questions."

We've already met, so the matter is considered cleared up.

Otherwise, the security department will not let them come back.

"You've been living in fear all day, go and get some rest."

After thanking her, Aunt Zhang returned to her room.

After hearing Zhang Sao's description, Li Tian found it hard to imagine.

"Grandma, is it really that hard to eat a crab?"

"With such a shortage of supplies, people naturally want to buy something when they hear that there are good things on the market that are not too expensive."

Li Tian sighed like an adult.

I'm also glad I came to this family; otherwise, even if I didn't go hungry, I probably wouldn't have been able to eat a single bite of meat.

How could we possibly live like that!

Li Siwen was also deeply moved, experiencing a feeling she had never had before.

"Mom, I want to study international trade in the future, sell our good products, make money and then bring in foreign products. I also want to do something for the country and the people."

These words made Li Tian's eyes light up.

I don't know if Li Siwen had a keen eye or just stumbled upon a lucky break.

International trade—that's definitely a smooth and prosperous road!

If this is accomplished, it will greatly benefit both the country and the family.

Will the Li family still be short of money then?

Of course we don't lack it!

Not only will she not lack anything, Li Siwen will also become a wealthy woman.

"Sure, this is a good path. You can take it if you want."

Ye Zhao had no objections whatsoever and would not interfere with what they wanted to do.
