That night, the landline phone that had only been installed in Gu's small building for two days rang.
Aunt Liu reminded Zuo Li: "Madam, your phone number."
Zuo Li walked downstairs and came over. The sweater she was wearing was very close-fitting, and it outlined her curvy figure, making her look extremely attractive.
Gu Yuanzheng went downstairs to drink water, glanced at it, withdrew his gaze, and poured the water from the hot water bottle into the thermos cup in his hand.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and he is extremely afraid of the cold, so he no longer goes to school.
You just need to take the exam during the final exam.
Zuo Li saw him and nodded slightly to him.
Gu Yuanzheng was stunned for a moment, nodded to Zuo Li, and then went upstairs.
Zuo Li asked Aunt Liu: "Is this the call from my home?"
Aunt Liu nodded, covered her mouthpiece, leaned close to Zuo Li and whispered, "It seems that my wife is very angry."
Zuo Li snorted and didn't care.
"Hey, Mom..."
"Erya! You damn girl! You have the nerve to call me mom? You are such a black-hearted debt collector! What on earth did you do to your elder brother?! He came back a few days ago with wounds all over his body, and he won't be able to do anything when he comes back today.
time to eat!
Tell me, what do you want to do? I was thinking, my Zuo family has not sorry for you, why do you do this to your eldest brother!
If you still recognize us as parents, come back to me tomorrow! If you don’t explain it clearly to us, I tell you, you are not my daughter!"
"Dudu"
Zhao Shufen was obviously furious. She stopped talking and didn't give Zuo Li a chance to speak.
Zuo Li had already had the foresight to keep the microphone farther away from his ears.
She was not angry and said to Aunt Liu: "Go and tell Captain Zhao that I will go back to Zuo's house tomorrow. I will go early in the morning and then come back for lunch."
"Okay." Aunt Liu walked out in a hurry.
Zuo Li felt that Aunt Liu was much kinder than before.
In fact, she feels that life is slowly getting better.
She showed a smile, and the warm winter sun outside the window also shone on the window of the living room, bright and soft.
The next day.
Gu Feichen was putting on her coat at the door, while Zuo Li tidied her collar: "I'm going back to my parents' house today and will come back at noon."
"Yeah." Gu Fei responded quietly, then lowered his eyes and stared at Zuo Li's pretty face and said, "You told me last night."
Zuo Li was not shy and rolled his eyes at him gently: "Say it again."
She thinks that her relationship with Gu Feichen has made progress now. Although they are still not married, they can be regarded as changing from "respecting each other like ice" to "respecting each other like guests".
In order to make the relationship between husband and wife more harmonious in the future, she decided to start from life.
For example, report your whereabouts to the other party.
In this way, the other person will know where she is when they think of her from time to time.
Among the ten principles for couples to get along - it is very important to learn to communicate.
Gu Feichen seemed to understand this. He adjusted the watch strap on his left hand, picked up his briefcase, and said calmly: "I have been in the factory all day today."
Zuo Li's smile became sweeter, and the joy at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows made her face even more beautiful.
Gu Feichen stared at it for a while, turned around and went out, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Behind him, Zuo Li waved to his back: "Mr. Gu, see you in the evening."
Gu Feichen got into the car and lowered the window: "Mrs. Gu, see you in the evening."
Zuo Li was in such a good mood that she felt like she was about to fly into the sky.
This good mood stayed with her until she came to Zuo's small building.
"Wow"
Almost as soon as she got out of the car and walked to the stairs, a large basin of water fell from the sky, cooling her to the core.
It's winter, and it's very cold in Sunshine City.
Days without snow are even colder than days with snow.
"Who?!" Zhao Jianshe stepped forward immediately, looked up, and saw Zhao Shufen's face, and he instantly frowned.
A gust of wind blew by, and Zuo Li's body trembled instantly. He couldn't help but fold his arms with his hands, his eyebrows were deep and he could not see any emotion.
"Oh, it turns out it's you Erya. I'm so sorry, Mom didn't see you."
Although Zhao Shufen said this, her tone was sinister and not the least bit embarrassing. It was obviously intentional.
"Old lady from the Zuo family, how could you do this?!" Zhao Jianshe scolded angrily while trying to take off his own coat and put it on Zuo Li.
Zuo Li stopped him.
In public, especially since there were many talkative women living here, she did not want to implicate Zhao Jianshe.
"Captain Zhao, no need. The clothes inside are wet. It's useless to add another one. Let's go up."
Her voice was gentle, without any anger.
Zhao Shufen sneered coldly: "Erya, you damn girl haven't come up yet!"
"Here we come." Zuo Li responded and stepped upstairs.
Some neighbors saw it and clicked their tongues.
"Zhao Shufen is still cruel. It's winter. If you pour that basin of cold water on her, these two girls will get sick."
Another neighbor disagreed and said, "I do the same thing. This second girl married the factory director in the city and ended up giving nothing to the family."
Someone else came over and said, "What do you know? I vaguely heard Zhao Shufen scolding Erya again a few days ago. It seems that Erya hit the eldest son of the Zuo family."
"Isn't it possible?! That Erya doesn't look like this kind of person."
"..."
Zuo Li didn't care about the neighbors' murmurs. As soon as she walked into Zuo's house, she immediately gave Zhao Jianshe a stern look and quietly ordered:
"Captain Zhao, please close the door."
Zhao Jianshe ducked into the house, closed the door, and then stood at the door with a body as strong as an ox, like a door god.
Unless Zuo Li opened his mouth, there was absolutely no way he could move away.
Zhao Shufen and Zuo Dajun, who were sitting and smoking cigarettes, obviously did not realize the seriousness of the matter.
Zuo Li glanced at her biological father, Zuo Dajun, who looked like this. Counting this, this was the first time she had seen this man.
This man's face was dark and his facial features looked very serious. He looked very similar to Zuo Huaguang. He was silent, and at first glance he was not good at talking.
However, this man who is not good at words will go crazy and even beat people once he gets drunk.
However, he did not dare to hit his fierce wife Zhao Shufen, nor was he willing to hit Zuo Huaguang, who carried on the family line for him.
So Zuo Li was beaten, and occasionally Zuo Tao would be caught and beaten.
Zuo Li's eyes were very cold. Among the people she hated the most in her life, domestic violence men were definitely at the top!
Zhao Shufen was already smiling ferociously, and took a step forward to catch Zuo Li: "Just in time, I want to close the door and teach you a lesson today! You damn girl... Oops!"
Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly screamed.
It turned out that Zuo Li was the first to grab her arm, and he pressed her hand somewhere, causing Zhao Shufen to scream in pain.
"Let go, let go, you damn girl..." Zhao Shufen exclaimed.
Zuo Dajun, who had been silent and smoking a cigarette, stared at him, stood up and yelled: "Erya, what do you want to do, beat your own mother?"
Zuo Li was not prepared to beat up Zhao Shufen, because after all, she still took the title of her biological mother.
She pushed Zhao Shufen directly into Zuo Dajun's arms.
However, Zuo Dajun was worthy of being a domestic violence man. He still wanted to arrest Zuo Li regardless of his intentions, but his impression of Zuo Li was still the same as before.
"Captain Zhao, even if you catch my dad, don't do anything to him."
Without saying a word, Zhao Jianshe stepped forward and pulled Zuo Dajun to the door, and tied his hands behind his back.
"Ouch! Let go, your shoulder is twisted and it will kill you!"
Zuo Dajun begged for mercy, his old face twisted in pain.
Zuo Li understood that Zhao Jianshe was venting his anger on her and did not point it out.
Anyway, she didn't do it herself.
In fact, she wanted to do it herself.
"Erya, are you crazy? We are your parents. Are you just because you married a rich man that you don't take us seriously?"
Zhao Shufen scolded her like a shrew, trying to make Zuo Li feel scrupulous.
Zuo Li crossed her arms and looked at Zhao Shufen: "Mom, you can yell louder and see if I'm afraid."
"You unfilial daughter!" Zhao Shufen raised her hand and wanted to hit Zuo Li.
Zuo Li grabbed her arm again and pressed the painful acupuncture point.
Zhao Shufen screamed in pain again.
"Mom, as you said, I married a rich man because of my face, so you can't let your face ruin it."
"Ah owe!"
Zuo Li sneezed, and the basin of water might have given her a cold.
Thinking of this, Zuo Li's eyes became more indifferent.
She was really fed up with this family and had to find a way to end it once and for all.
At this time, Zuo Dajun came out of the room. When he saw the chaotic scene in front of him, he stared at Zuo Li fiercely.
"Zuo Li! You are so cruel, you did this to your parents! Moreover, you asked Zhao Di to leave me! What on earth do you want to do to our family!"
Zuo Li pointed at her wet appearance. She even felt that if there wasn't a charcoal fire burning in the room, the water stain would be about to freeze.
Now she felt that the water had soaked into her inner shirt, and it felt uncomfortable sticking to her body.
She coldly took out the IOU and slapped it on Zuo Huaguang's face: "Open your eyes and take a closer look. Who did this? Don't you have any idea why Wang Zhaodi left you?"
How stupid!"
Zuo Huaguang looked at the IOU, his face twisted and changed, and he tore it up in the next second!
Zuo Li snorted: "Tear it up as you like. This IOU is just a copy. The original version is still with Yang Laosan."
In fact, the original version is in Zuo Li's place, but she said this just to make Zuo Huaguang scruple.
After all, the fact that Yang Laosan is now a fugitive is still a secret, and the Public Security Bureau has not announced this news.
Zuo Huaguang was shocked.
Zhao Shufen said next to her: "What, what kind of IOU?"
Zuo Li rubbed her nose and glanced at Zhao Shufen: "You ask your good son, I will change my clothes first, and you two can talk slowly first."
After saying that, Zuo Li called Zuo Tao.
Zuo Tao immediately popped up from the narrowest partitioned room, with fear in his eyes: "Zuo Li, no, sister, I'm here..."
Zuo Li walked over and pinched her fat face: "Take out one of my old clothes, for winter."
Zuo Tao responded immediately and was so well-behaved.
Apparently he was shocked by Zuo Li's powerful display just now.
Zuo Li changed her clothes and came out. She was wearing a big dusty cotton-padded jacket. The clothes underneath were also very rough, which caused some pain to her delicate skin after being raised for several months.
Looking up, he saw Zhao Shufen crying, and Zuo Dajun, who was let go, was smoking again, filling the whole room with the smell of smoke.
Zuo Li wrinkled her nose in disgust, it was obvious that Zuo Huaguang had just told the story.
Seeing Zuo Li coming out, Zhao Shufen immediately spoke earnestly: "Erya, you have to help your big brother, he is your only big brother."
Then he pinched Zuo Huaguang's arm: "Quick, beg your sister for mercy!"
At this time, Zuo Dajun also spoke for the sake of his precious son: "Erya, you are brothers and sisters. There is no overnight feud. You don't want your eldest brother to be beaten to death by debt collectors, right?"
Zuo Huaguang scratched his neck and muttered as if he was very humiliated: "Second sister, please help me, I can't come up with so much money. Besides, I didn't get as much as 60,000 yuan at the beginning."
Zuo Li still felt cold. He crossed his arms and glanced at the three people, and immediately gave a weird smile: "Help me, brother, you can..."
Before the three of them could look happy, Zuo Li stepped forward and slapped Zuo Huaguang twice, regardless of the pain in his hands.
Before the three of them could react, they picked up a basin of water from the footbath nearby and threw it at Zuo Huaguang.
Wow!
Zuo Huaguang was chilled to the core by being splashed with water. He realized what Zuo Li had felt before. Zuo Dajun and Zhao Shufen, who were both nearby, were also splashed by the foot-washing water.
