Duan Mingjie felt sad and sweet at the same time.
His wife has always taken good care of his self-esteem.
"Why did you suddenly come to see me? Did the people in the village say something?"
Duan Mingjie only thought of this possibility.
No matter where you are, there are people who gossip and no one can avoid them.
Lu Yao was silent for a moment.
Duan Mingjie pinched her waist and said, "Tell me the truth."
Lu Yao sniffed and told her what Dong Niannian told her that day in the department store.
Now, Duan Mingjie knew why his wife felt sorry for him.
Lu Yao lay in his arms, her muffled voice conveying strength, "Duan Mingjie, from the time you went to work on the construction site, I knew you would endure hardship, and I also knew you were very capable of enduring hardship. You can't eat well, and you're tired from work." , I can accept it, I know these are temporary, but whenever I think of you being scolded, my heart ache and bleeds."
Duan Mingjie was a very proud person. In the past, he was the only one who could scold others in Duanjia Village. He was not afraid even when facing the party secretary.
Sometimes mental fatigue can crush a person's fighting spirit more than physical fatigue.
Hearing her choked voice at the end, Duan Mingjie felt heartbroken. He held her face in his hands, and two lines of tears rolled down the back of his hands.
Duan Mingjie felt guilty and distressed.
"Yao Yao, no one scolds me. Brother Li is very kind to me, and I get along well with everyone."
"Even if you get scolded, it doesn't matter. Who hasn't been scolded before? That's how you work with others. It's normal to feel a little wronged."
Lu Yao hugged his neck, "But I don't want you to be wronged."
Duan Mingjie patted her back gently, "Daughter-in-law, I know you feel sorry for me, but Brother Li did not scold me. My fourth aunt said before that you are my lucky star. I think it makes sense. Look, I married After you, things went smoothly. You built a new house and bought a small western-style building in the capital. When you went to the construction site, you met a good person like Brother Li. Seeing that Tang Yi was about to take revenge, I rescued him. It was okay. By relying on his strength to do projects, all good things happened to me. So, you are my lucky star."
Lu Yao bit her lip, "If you take my fourth aunt's jokes seriously, you will coax me."
"I'm not trying to coax you, I'm telling the truth," Duan Mingjie raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, "Yao Yao, I feel very lucky because I have you."
Lu Yao pursed her lips and got off his lap, "I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to ask you if you can have beef noodles."
Duan Mingjie thrust the money and tickets given by Lao Li into Lu Yao's hand, "Daughter-in-law, this is Brother Li's wish. Just take it and don't think too much about it."
Lu Yao hummed, then turned and left.
Early the next morning, Tang Yi came over carrying fish soup, fried tofu with mung bean sprouts, five steamed buns and a bag of apples.
Duan Mingjie was drinking the porridge cooked by Lu Yao. Tang Yi came up and took the porridge away from Duan Mingjie without saying a word. He also served him a bowl of fish soup and forced it into Duan Mingjie's hand. "Brother, this is the fish my mother cooked by herself." Please try the soup."
Duan Mingjie glanced at him lightly, "My wife made that for me with her own hands. You can exchange it for me!"
Tang Yi looked at the rice soup and frowned in disgust.
"It's not nutritious at all. Just drink fish soup. My mother got up early in the morning and cooked it for you."
Lu Yao, who stood aside and was completely ignored: "..."
She held her hands in front of her, and it felt strange to see a man being courteous to her man.
But seeing that he was doing good for Duan Mingjie, Lu Yao didn't bother to argue with him, "Duan Mingjie, you can drink fish soup."
Tang Yi turned around, "Why are you here?"
Lu Yao laughed angrily. He only saw Duan Mingjie in his eyes, not her at all.
"This is my man, why do you think I'm here?"
Tang Yi groaned, turned around and said to Duan Mingjie, "Brother, you see your wife has spoken. Aren't you the most obedient to your wife? Drink quickly."
Duan Mingjie put down his fish soup and finished the rice soup Lu Yao cooked for him before drinking the fish soup.
Tang Yi was furious, but couldn't say anything.
After eating, Tang Yi peeled an apple for Duan Mingjie, and Duan Mingjie handed it to Lu Yao.
Lu Yao took it and took a bite. It tasted very delicious.
Tang Yi closed his eyes and started peeling again.
This time Duan Mingjie ate it.
"Brother, my parents and my eldest brother know that you saved me, and I especially want to thank you. They are downstairs, should I ask them to come up?"
Duan Mingjie wanted to say no, but everyone had gone downstairs, so not letting him come would be a bit of a chase away.
"Okay, let them come up."
With permission, Tang Yi quickly went downstairs.
Lu Yao couldn't laugh or cry, "Why is he so funny?"
But it can be seen that he is really good to Duan Mingjie.
Duan Mingjie was also a little helpless.
After a while, Tang Yi came over with his parents and Tang Long.
Duan Mingjie was also helped up by Lu Yao.
"Hello, uncle and aunt."
Tang Yi's mother Qian Jinzhi quickly stepped forward to support Duan Mingjie, "Okay, okay, everything is okay, Xiao Duan, right?"
Duan Mingjie nodded, "Yes, my name is Duan Mingjie, and this is my wife, Lu Yao."
Lu Yao nodded slightly to Qian Jinzhi.
Qian Jinzhi's eyes lit up, "Oh, Xiao Duan, your wife is so pretty."
Lu Yao smiled and said, "Auntie is also very beautiful."
Qian Jinzhi laughed so hard that his shoulders shook, "You're so sweet."
"Sit down, sit down, don't stand."
With that said, Qian Jinzhi pulled Duan Mingjie to sit down, "Xiao Duan, after knowing that you rescued A Yi yesterday, his father and I wanted to see you. A Yi said it was too late, so we came today."
"I have nothing to do, so I don't need to make a special trip."
"Why is it okay?" Qian Jinzhi looked at Duan Mingjie's head, his eyes full of heartache and fear, "His head was smashed like this."
If it weren't for Duan Mingjie, it would be her son who would suffer.
Tang Yi's father, Tang Aimin, put the gift in his hand beside the bed, "Comrade Duan Mingjie, thank you for saving my son. Our Tang family will always remember this kindness. Whatever happens in the capital in the future, as long as it is legal and compliant, our Tang family will The family will definitely help.”
Duan Mingjie smiled at Tang Aimin and said, "Uncle, you are serious. It's not a big deal."
"Except for life and death, everything in a person's life is trivial. You saving Tang Yi is a big deal."
Duan Mingjie did not refute again.
Lu Yao moved stools for them to sit down.
Tang Long looked at Lu Yao and then at Duan Mingjie, "Have I seen you guys?"
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment and stared at Tang Long for a few times. She thought about it for a long time and couldn't remember it. She shook her head and said, "I don't think I've seen you before."
"Brother, they know Chief Zheng."
Hearing this, Tang Long glanced at Lu Yao a few more times, "Are you the little girl my elder brother talks about that he gets along well with?"
