Chapter 10: Learn and apply!
After chatting with Li He for a few more minutes, Tu Yuan excused himself and parted ways with Li He, saying he had something to do.
Tu Yuan then rushed to his second uncle's house.
On the way, Tu Yuan carefully recalled Li He's words and actions when he met her.
He discovered that there was a reason why Director Zhang Tao liked Li He, a woman who was neither particularly attractive nor had a striking figure.
As Director Zhang's woman, Li He clearly saw that he was wearing a police uniform with epaulets indicating he was a probationary officer.
At this moment, most people would probably feel superior and look down on others.
His words and actions were arrogant.
He didn't sense any arrogance from Li He.
They even used respectful terms when speaking to him.
Tu Yuan looked at the Black Lotus Vitality Water and the Freshener Spray in his hand.
I felt a pang of emotion.
Throughout his conversation with Li He, he didn't sense any discomfort from her attitude or tone.
Instead, it felt like a gentle spring breeze.
Not only did they buy him water, but they also considered small details like the possibility of picking up dog odor after contact with the dog.
When a normal person finds the black ball, their first priority is usually their dog, and they tend to overlook the feelings of the person who found it.
Li He, on the other hand, only glanced at the black ball twice, taking advantage of the time while tying the dog leash to check on its condition.
At other times, the main attention was focused on him, so that he never felt ignored.
All I could feel was the other person's politeness and respect.
Furthermore, Li He speaks at a moderate pace and in a friendly tone.
Tu Yuan had encountered similar incidents before.
As a result, the other party was only focused on talking to their own pet and ignored him, the person who was helping to find their pet.
Moreover, they have been slow to mention the previously promised payment, and have been dodging the issue with irrelevant questions.
In the end, he tried to renege on the payment with a few words of thanks.
Li He barely exchanged a few words before discussing payment.
The differences between people are reflected in their actions.
"I heard that Director Zhang's wife comes from a powerful family and has a rather assertive personality."
"As the head of Zhenghe Police Station, Director Zhang has the final say in the station."
"Therefore, Director Zhang and his wife's daily relationship is likely not harmonious."
"This may be why Director Zhang was unable to win over his wife and grant Li He the status of a concubine."
Tu Yuan thought for a moment and bought a box of milk, a bag of rice, and a bottle of rapeseed oil at a supermarket by the roadside.
He hadn't forgotten that besides coming to Guhe Community to find the dog named Black Ball and deliver it to Li He, he also...
I also need to visit my second uncle's family.
After all, this was the reason he came to the Guhe Community.
Tu Yuan's second uncle lived in a self-built building on Changshui Street in Guhe Community.
The house was bought by my second uncle and aunt with their own savings.
These buildings are collectively built and do not have property ownership certificates. Anyone who wants to buy one can only draft a contract privately.
However, the contract has no legal effect within the framework of federal law.
Therefore, buying this type of house carries the risk of disputes.
However, this also makes the house price much cheaper compared to surrounding neighborhoods.
My second uncle and aunt bought this kind of house because of their limited budget.
The building has eight floors but no elevator. Tu Yuan's second uncle's home is on the fifth floor.
Before coming, Tu Yuan called his second uncle to tell him that he was coming to visit.
Carrying his things, he went straight up to the fifth floor and knocked on the door facing the stairs leading upstairs.
The door opened quickly.
The figures of Tang Hongyong, the second uncle, and Wang Shuli, the second aunt, were standing at the door.
Tu Yuan's second uncle was wearing a dark blue uniform, which was the work uniform of the calcite processing factory where he worked.
Tang Hongyong is in his early forties. He is a little overweight, with a belly that is not obvious, and his skin is dark and rough.
Wang Shuli wore a blue apron around her waist, with her sleeves rolled up high and her hands still damp.
Both of them had warm smiles on their faces.
Tang Hongyong spotted the gifts Tu Yuan was carrying almost immediately.
He immediately laughed and shouted:
"Xiao Yuan! What did you bring with you to your uncle's house?!"
"We're all family, why be so polite?!"
Wang Shuli, standing to the side, also smiled and echoed:
"That's right! Obuchi!"
"You're a trainee officer now, and the most important thing for you is to become a master of martial arts. You need to spend your money wisely."
"Next time you come, don't buy so much stuff, just come with your own people."
Tu Yuan had a smile on his face, a smile that was both casual and friendly.
His gaze first fell on his second uncle, Tang Hongyong.
"Second Uncle, isn't it normal for me to bring things home because we're family?"
After saying that, Tu Yuan looked at Wang Shuli and smiled:
"Second Aunt, money should be spent wisely, but I didn't spend it wrong!"
"Spending money on your own family is the most worthwhile thing to do!"
Tu Yuan's words made Tang Hongyong and Wang Shuli overjoyed.
That's just how people are; even if they say they don't want it, they still secretly appreciate being cared for and valued by others.
This is something Tu Yuan just learned from Li He.
It's a good opportunity to put what we've learned into practice and see how it goes.
The wide smiles on Tang Hongyong and Wang Shuli's faces proved that this trick was indeed effective.
Tang Hongyong was laughing when he suddenly pulled his chin back and his expression turned serious.
"I'll let it slide this time, you've already bought everything!"
"Don't spend any more money next time! Do you hear me!"
Although Tang Hongyong had a stern face, there was no seriousness in his expression, and his eyes were clearly smiling.
Tu Yuan nodded, his tone relaxed: "I know, I know! Don't let it happen again!"
Seeing Tu Yuan say this, Tang Hongyong nodded in satisfaction and put his arm around Tu Yuan's shoulder:
"How are you settling in at the police station lately?"
"And how's your martial arts progress? Let me tell you, you absolutely cannot be lazy when it comes to martial arts training!"
"If you need money to buy medicine, your uncle has some savings. I don't have any expenses right now, so I can help you out anytime."
Wang Shuli, who was standing to the side, nodded repeatedly upon hearing this:
"Xiao Yuan! Your second uncle is right!"
"Of all your generations, you're the only one who excelled in your studies from a young age and is still so successful now, able to wear a police uniform."
"Your second uncle and I don't have any great abilities or powerful connections. All we have is a little over 40,000 yuan in savings in the bank."
"Anyway, if you need money, just come to us."
Hearing their words, Tu Yuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
He knew the two weren't just being polite.
Because Tu Yuan was often sent to Tang Hongyong's house to stay when he was a child.
Tang Hongyong and Wang Shuli practically watched him grow up, and their bond with Tu Yuan was exceptionally deep.
When Tu Yuan's mother passed away, Tang Hongyong and Wang Shuli contributed both money and effort.
They were worried that Tu Yuan wouldn't be able to take care of himself if he lived alone, and wanted him to come and live with them.
However, Tu Yuan rejected the proposal.
"Yes! Second Uncle, Second Aunt, if I really need money urgently, I will definitely ask you for help!"
"By the way, how's business at your cousin's restaurant lately?"
After replying, Tu Yuan quickly shifted the topic to his cousin, Tang Zhengjiang.
Upon hearing Tu Yuan's words, Tang Hongyong's expression instantly turned ugly, his tone filled with anger and a hint of helplessness.
"Hmph! Don't mention that bastard!"
"This guy has been neglecting his restaurant business lately, hanging out with some shady characters, and spending all his time at the archway."
"When your cousin's wife tried to stop him, he threw a tantrum and broke things!"
"He won't listen to us. I think he'll gamble away the whole family sooner or later!"
Tu Yuan was unaware that his cousin Tang Zhengjiang had become addicted to gambling.
Upon hearing Tang Hongyong's words, he couldn't help but frown.
He knew very well that once you got hooked on gambling, it was very difficult to quit, and the inner desires could completely distort a person inside and out in a very short time.
Speak of the devil and he shall appear.
Tang Zhengjiang's voice, tinged with anger and embarrassment, rang out from the stairwell at that moment.
"Dad! Why do you tell everyone everything!"
Tu Yuan turned his head and found Tang Zhengjiang standing at the corner of the stairwell below.
He looked a little embarrassed and angry.
It must have been because Tang Zhengjiang overheard what his second uncle, Tang Hongyong, had just said that made Tang Zhengjiang feel like he had lost face.
Upon seeing Tang Zhengjiang, Tang Hongyong's expression grew even more unpleasant, and he angrily rebuked Tang Zhengjiang:
"You have the nerve to come back?! Again, you're back asking for money?! Get out! I don't have any money for you, you bastard!"
