Duan Minghua smiled after knowing why Duan Zhiwei was angry, touched his head and said.
"Okay, it's okay. Your third uncle is also afraid that you will learn bad things."
Duan Zhiwei hummed.
Lu Yao and the others sent Duan Zhiwei to school.
The little boy apologized to Duan Yanyan in front of the whole class and promised never to bully girls in the future.
Li Ying reported the situation to the principal and asked the little boy to change classes.
Lu Yao hugged Duan Yanyan and said to the principal, "I don't want the same thing to happen again."
The principal quickly assured: "Don't worry, we will definitely pay more attention to it in the future."
Duan Minghua knelt down in front of Duan Yanyan, "Yanyan, can I take you home?"
Duan Yanyan shook her head, "Dad, no need, I want to go back after school."
Duan Minghua stroked her soft hair, "I'll pick you up after school."
Duan Yanyan nodded.
When he got home, Duan Mingjie looked at Lu Yao helplessly.
Lu Yao wondered: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Duan Mingjie: "Did you know that you were still pregnant with the child, so you started fighting with someone? If I hadn't been by your side, that woman would have started fighting with you. Have you thought about the consequences?"
Lu Yao caressed her belly belatedly and winked at Duan Mingjie, "Do you believe me if I say that I forgot that I was pregnant?"
Duan Mingjie was dumbfounded by her.
Lu Yao puffed up her cheeks and was a little angry, "I knew you didn't believe it."
After saying that, Lu Yao turned around and went back.
Duan Mingjie was dumbfounded and quickly caught up to hold her hand, "I believe it, I believe it."
Lu Yao: "You know how to deal with me."
Duan Mingjie: "..."
Although my daughter-in-law is cute when she has a temper, she was not like this before.
Duan Mingjie came to her and said, "Daughter-in-law, are you worried about anything?"
Lu Yao tilted her head and said insincerely, "No."
Duan Mingjie didn't know what to do with her.
Because Lu Yao was pregnant, the two moved from upstairs to downstairs. Duan Mingjie sent her into the house. Gu Fulan pulled him aside and raised his hand to pat him.
"You idiot, you didn't know that women tend to have random thoughts when they are pregnant."
Duan Mingjie: "What do you mean?"
Gu Fulan gave Duan Mingjie some popular science. Women are sensitive and suspicious when pregnant, and they desperately need care. Sometimes a small thing that they usually don't take to heart can make them sad for a day.
Duan Mingjie looked in the direction of their bedroom and was lost in thought. His mother was still talking next to him.
"Remember, no matter what your wife says in the future, it will be right. You have to obey her. Unless something big happens, you can't hang your face in front of her. Do you know?"
Duan Mingjie anxiously coaxed his wife, "Mom, I understand."
After saying that, he strode towards the bedroom.
Lu Yao sat on the bed and began to think about her inexplicable temper just now.
Wasn't she like this before?
Would Duan Mingjie think that she was being pampered and arrogant because she was pregnant?
After realizing this idea, Lu Yao herself was shocked.
Why does she have this idea?
Before she was pregnant, Duan Mingjie was also very kind to her.
With a creak, the door was pushed open.
Lu Yao turned around and saw Duan Mingjie closing the door and walking towards her.
Lu Yao pursed her lips and stretched out her arms towards him.
Duan Mingjie walked over and hugged her, "My wife, are you unhappy?"
Lu Yao pouted, "I don't know what's wrong with me. Do you think I'm being unreasonable?"
Duan Mingjie hugged her and sat on his lap, "No, you have a good temper. I didn't understand. My mother told me just now. She said it is normal for pregnant women to have unstable emotions."
Lu Yao raised her face and looked at him, "Is that so?"
Duan Mingjie nodded.
Lu Yao smiled: "It's a shame that I'm a student of obstetrics and gynecology, I don't understand these things."
Duan Mingjie: "That's because you haven't learned this yet and haven't been exposed to pregnant women. It's normal to not understand."
With that said, Duan Mingjie held her face, lowered his head and kissed her little mouth.
"Daughter-in-law, no matter what worries you have in the future, speak out and don't keep it in your heart. It's not easy for a woman to get pregnant. I can't suffer for you. At least I can be your punching bag."
Hearing this, Lu Yao felt sweet in her heart and fell into his arms, "This is what you said."
Duan Mingjie said in a serious tone, "I said, I promise not to fight back if you hit me or scold me."
Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh, "It sounds like you would fight back before."
"Daughter-in-law, shall I take you out to play this weekend? Let's go out and relax."
Lu Yao shook her head, "No, you have a lot to do at the construction site. I don't want to delay your work. The busy farming season is coming soon. The workers will have to leave for more than half, and it will take a month to leave. What have you figured out? ?"
The busy farming season is indeed a problem.
Duan Mingjie: "I plan to raise wages during the busy farming period to see if I can keep some people here."
Lu Yao got off his lap and sat next to him, "How many national food stamps do we have left?"
Duan Mingjie: "There are still a lot of food stamps given by our dad and eldest brother. Grandma Yue gave us some before. We don't use much, but it should be quite a lot in total."
Zheng Weiguo usually delivers rice and noodles to them on time, so they don't need food stamps at all.
Lu Yao: "The reason why everyone wants to go back is simply because no matter how much money we make here, we can't buy food when we go back. If we don't increase wages and issue food stamps during busy farming times, we may be able to retain some people."
Duan Mingjie bent down and pulled out a box from under the bed.
Inside was all their belongings. Duan Mingjie took out the food stamps and counted them. They had hundreds of people under their control, and these food stamps were far from enough.
Lu Yao said on the side, "It's not that we give them food stamps every day. They insist on working on the construction site throughout the busy farming season. After the busy farming season is over, each person is given two hundred catties of food stamps."
Duan Mingjie pondered, "Two hundred pounds of food stamps is a lot, and they won't be able to get them even if they go back."
Lu Yao: "With both wages and food stamps, I believe there will be people willing to stay."
Duan Mingjie: "Two hundred catties is too much. One hundred catties is enough to keep them here. I'll go out tomorrow to see if I can collect some food stamps."
Lu Yao: "I'll go home tomorrow and ask my second uncle and cousin if they can collect some for us."
Zheng Hongye’s channels are wider than theirs.
Duan Minghua picked up the two children today. Now the students in the school know that Duan Zhiwei and Duan Yanyan are not without a father or a mother, and their father is very powerful.
After coming out of school, Duan Minghua took his children to play on the street for a while, and then came back after buying some snacks.
Seeing the two children looking happy, Lu Yao was happy for them.
No matter how good they are to their children, they are not as good as having parents by their side.
After dinner, Lu Yao called Duan Yanyan to her room.
She held Duan Yanyan's hand and said, "Yanyan, that little boy bullied you, are you afraid?"
Duan Yanyan nodded.
"Then why don't you tell me and your third uncle?"
Duan Yanyan lowered her head, "I'm afraid you'll scold me."
Lu Yao: "Why do you think we will scold you?"
Duan Yanyan bit her lip, tears welling up in frustration, "That boy said that if someone finds out, I will become his wife. I'm scared."
