Lin Mai served him a bowl of dumplings in Fang Zhuoran's exclusive lunch box and said, "Thank you."
Fang Zhuoran smiled and said: "Every time we meet, you will say thank you eight times out of ten."
Lin Mai smiled and said nothing.
Fang Zhuoran took advantage of Lin Mai's busy schedule and secretly asked Xiao Douding: "The wind is so strong today, why don't you wear the scarf given by your uncle?"
Xiao Douding said a little aggrievedly: "Mom said she wanted to return those two scarves to you, so she didn't wear them for me."
Fang Zhuoran felt a little unhappy after hearing this.
When he finished eating the dumplings, Lin Mai just finished his first wave of business.
Seeing him put down his lunch box, he quickly took out the two scarves from the cloth bag on the cart and returned them to him: "I'll give this back to you, I can't take it away."
Fang Zhuoran asked: "Why can't you accept it? Don't you like it?"
Lin Mai shook his head: "It's not...it's...no reward for no merit."
Fang Zhuoran smiled brightly: "This gift of mine is not a reward based on merit, so why should I receive no reward for no merit?
I'm just afraid that Doudou will freeze when he goes out to the stall with you so early every day."
"...Then I bought it for her, why do you buy it for me too?"
"You are a child too, and I want to treat everyone equally." Fang Zhuoran said and left.
Lin Mai was messy in the wind. She became a mother, but she was just a child in his eyes...
Since you won't take the scarf back yet, just accept it.
She put Doudou's scarf around her.
Doudou was so happy that she asked Lin Mai to put the scarf on her too.
Lin Mai was a little embarrassed and refused Xiao Douding's request on the excuse that she was busy at the stove and didn't need to wear a scarf to keep warm.
But Dou Dou jumped up and down and insisted on her putting on the scarf, so she had to put it on.
After all, it is a cashmere scarf. It is really warm when wrapped around the neck.
After closing the stall and returning home, Lin Mai hesitated for a moment when taking off his scarf, walked into the room and looked in the mirror.
Fang Zhuoran bought her a pretty milky white scarf. Scarfs of this color are versatile.
It's a pity that she is too dark, and the clothes she wears are too cheap, making her look out of place.
The next morning, when Fang Zhuoran came to eat dumplings, he saw Lin Mai and his daughter wearing the scarves he gave them, and smiled with satisfaction.
He works all night today and rests tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. He will not come to Lin Mai's house to eat dumplings these two days.
Before leaving, I specially informed the two girls, so as not to save them from waiting in anticipation.
Dabao's mother's condition was not serious and she was discharged from the hospital after two days.
But he didn't come to Lin Mai's house to perform the hanging drama.
That day, her man not only failed to bring Lin Mai to confess his mistake to her, but also relayed to her what Lin Mai and Fang Zhuoran said.
Dabao's mother knew that even if she went to Lin Mai's door, she wouldn't be able to get any advantage, so she had to give up.
After finishing business that day, Doudou followed Lin Mai home, saying as he walked: "Tomorrow, uncle will come to eat mom's dumplings again, which is great!"
Seeing that Lin Mai didn't respond, Xiao Douding tugged on her lapel and said, "Mom is also eager for uncle to come and eat dumplings."
Lin Mai shook his head: "No."
Even if there is, it's only a little bit, and it's still aroused by the little bean curd.
As soon as the mother and daughter returned home, a village cadre came and asked Lin Mai to go to the village office to get a remittance slip.
Lin Mai was a little happy. It was probably the article he wrote to the newspaper last time about Jiangcheng Shopping Mall that corrected its mistakes after it was acknowledged and published in the newspaper.
She wrote more than a thousand words in that article and was able to exchange it for about ten yuan.
Before he even reached the village office, Lin Mai saw villagers standing inside and outside the village office.
There were several police officers mixed in with the crowd, asking villagers questions from time to time. Their white uniforms made people nervous for no reason.
Lin Mai asked a villager standing outside: "Old man, what are these police officers investigating?"
The old man said with a side face: "Dabao's mother reported all of Aunt Gu's sons and daughters to the police station, saying that they surrounded her and beat her, and asked the police to punish them severely. The police are investigating the truth of the matter."
Lin Mai was a little shocked.
Is this the legendary villain who complains first?
It was clearly Dabao's mother who was in the wrong, but she sued Aunt Gu's children.
Many villagers whispered that if the police arrested Aunt Gu's sons and daughters, such indiscriminate crackdowns would not only fail to deter the gangsters, but would also encourage the arrogance of the gangsters.
Fortunately, nothing happened that the villagers were worried about.
After a whole morning of investigation, several police officers determined that although it was wrong to beat Aunt Gu's son and daughter, the circumstances were excusable.
Moreover, he was stopped by the villagers in time and did not cause serious harm to the victim.
Therefore, Aunt Gu's children only had to apologize to the victim and pay three yuan for nutrition.
On the contrary, Dabao's parents, as Dabao's guardians, are fully responsible for the various medical expenses and lost time and nutrition expenses incurred by Dabao's naughty injuries to Aunt Gu. The current total is 300 yuan, not counting the later medical expenses.
——I heard from Aunt Gu’s children that Aunt Gu would need at least 500 yuan in medical expenses for her to fully recover.
This result is very satisfying.
The family suddenly had to spend hundreds of yuan to compensate others, wiping out all the family assets. Dabao's father was furious and wanted to beat Dabao hard to make him realize that he had done something wrong.
But Dabao's mother threatened him with death, and Dabao's father had to lose. Dabao still didn't learn a lesson.
Because she had to pay the Gu family a lot of money, Dabao's mother started setting up a stall before her health fully recovered.
On the day Dabao's mother set up her stall, the stall owners of Lin Mai's stall and the two stalls between her did not show up.
Aunt Gu didn't go out because she was still hospitalized, and the other one had a high fever in the middle of the night and didn't have the energy to set up a stall.
In this way, Lin Mai's and Dabao's mom's stalls are adjacent to each other.
Lin Mai didn't want to conflict with an unreasonable person. Although the two stalls were adjacent to each other, she deliberately kept the distance as far as possible.
After this period of time, Lin Mai's dumplings have become somewhat famous in the dock, so business is very good.
Customers who want to eat dumplings will bring their lunch boxes to buy them without Doudou's help.
It happened that Doudou had a cold after dinner last night, so Lin Mai didn't take her with him when we went to the stall today. Let her sleep more at home, and the cold will get better faster.
Doudou has Ah Huang with her, so she won't be afraid anymore if Lin Mai is not at home.
Dabaoma's dumplings were not as good as Linmai's in terms of taste and weight. In addition, because he was hospitalized and couldn't set up his stall for several days, he lost a lot of customers and his business hit rock bottom.
But instead of finding reasons for her poor business, she cursed and blamed Lin Mai, a foreigner, for taking away her business.
Lin Mai was busy doing business and had no time to pay attention to her.
But Dabao's mother got more and more angry as she scolded her. Dabao assisted her mother and ran over to kick Lin Mai's stove.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Lin Mai grabbed the naughty kid by the back of his collar and threw him out.
The naughty child cried like a pig being slaughtered on the spot.
Dabao's mother had long wanted to teach Lin Mai a lesson, but she couldn't find an excuse.
Now seeing his son thrown to the ground by Lin Mai, he rushed over like a cannonball: "If you dare to hit my son, I will fight with you!"
Lin Mai picked up a wooden stick from the ground and hit it with it. The pain was so painful that she lay on the ground and screamed "killer".
However, no one present, no matter the vendors or customers, sympathized with her. Instead, they accused her of being unreasonable and pretending.
Lin Mai pointed a stick at her and said: "A good person will turn into a mad dog if he doesn't do anything wrong. When did I beat your son? I just threw him out."
Why did I throw him away? Don’t you have any idea?
Your son just kicked the stove. If the stove falls over, the large pot of bone soup on the stove will be poured onto the customers. Can you afford the consequences?"
