Lin Huan couldn't help but hold Shi Ran's arm tightly, dragging her out of the business district and into a taxi.
On the way, Lin Huanxu persuaded Shi Ran, telling her not to keep it in her mind like a gourd and ponder over everything she encounters.
Shi Ran shook his head in denial, and Lin Huan raised his hand and grabbed her face, "Don't do this to me. Every time something happens, you will look like you are going to die alone. You deserve a beating."
"
Although her cheek was a little painful from being pinched, Shi Ran's mood became calmer. She took Lin Huan's hand and agreed with her that after returning to the old house, she would never tell Shi Jianning what she saw today.
I told him about Shi Jianning's temper and he didn't know what was going to happen.
Having lived with Liu Min for a long time, Shi Ran had seen Shi Jianning fight with others for Liu Min too many times. Even if Shi Ran occasionally said something bad about Liu Min, he might be slapped by his father.
There are always many reasons for developing the habit of swallowing one's anger and keeping silent at home, right? It is impossible for Shi Ran to be so "aware of propriety, advance and retreat" since he was a child, and to be tolerant towards Liu Min.
In her life experience, she had several vague or clear memories.
Shi Jianning once had a fight with Liu Min because she accepted high-heeled shoes from a street vendor from a middle-aged male vendor in Lingzhaoli. As a result, he was detained for a week.
For a few years, Shi Jianning was obsessed with fishing on the river because some people said that he was an old man with a young wife, and told him to keep a close eye on his wife at home and not to go back to her and marry someone else. He was kept in the dark.
Shi Jianning was so angry that he flipped the house into the Huangpu River with his fishing rod. If someone with good water skills hadn't jumped in and pulled the man ashore, Shi Jianning might have been sued for his life.
That time, thanks to the rescuer's uncle who intervened, Shi Jianning was scolded by Liu Min. After reflecting on it, he offered him a drink and apologized, and the matter was settled.
Later, when Shi Ran went to college, I heard that Shi Jianning had beaten an old man and was detained. She ran back from school to pay the fine and get an education before they fished Shi Jianning out.
The reason for the beating is ridiculous. Shi Jianning raised a myna and took Liu Min to the park to walk the birds in the morning. An old man with bad eyesight said that Liu Min was his daughter.
Lin Huan pinched his eyebrows painfully, "So, your dad is very... hot-blooded."
"There's no need to be so tactful." Shi Ran knew his father better than anyone else, "My dad has been particularly proud of marrying the young and beautiful Liu Min for so many years. He loves Liu Min and loves face."
When he got home, Shi Ran took out the key and opened the door. The house was filled with a strong smell of cigarette and alcohol.
Shi Jianning was sleeping soundly in bed. Shi Ran first took out the cigarettes and wine and put them in a plastic bag and handed them to Lin Huan. He asked her to sit at the dining table and wait while Shi Ran went to shake Shi Jianning awake.
The drunken old father squinted his eyes and saw his daughter, he laughed and said, "Nanny is back."
It’s true that every time you get drunk, you have a different pattern. Today’s scene is about the deep love between father and daughter.
Shi Ran held the cup and fed Shi Jianning two sips of Qiuli paste soup brewed with warm water. He couldn't help but tell the old story, "Smoking and drinking are harmful to the body."
"Ouch, I'm so annoyed." Shi Jianning pulled up the quilt and lay back on the bed.
After returning home this time, Shi Ran found that the mahjong table in her small room was missing, and asked Shi Jianning what happened. He said that Liu Min had taken it to sell second-hand goods.
When I opened the wardrobe where Liu Min kept her bags, apart from the LV that Liu Min was carrying today, there was also a Gucci and a Chanel missing.
Ask Shi Jianning again, did Liu Min also sell the bag given by Cheng Xiuyan?
"Fa knows." Shi Jianning shook his head in confusion, "She has been going to the gym every day lately, acting like she wants to be a bodybuilder. I can't talk to her for a few words."
"Then does she go home and sleep every night? Does she spend the night outside?"
"She dares!" Shi Jianning cursed in a hoarse voice, "If a girl dares to spend the night outside, I will break her legs!"
Maybe it was because he spoke too hard that Shi Jianning coughed.
Shi Ran went over to feed him two more sips of water and patted his back to calm him down. After a while, Shi Jianning fell asleep again.
The good news is that Liu Min never sleeps awake.
The bad news is that she has already started to sell off the things in her house and use the money to buy a big gold ring for the muscular boy.
The smell in the house was bad, and the housework was not well organized. Shi Ran opened the windows for ventilation, cleaned the house, and put the dirty clothes and smelly socks that Shi Jianning had changed into into the washing machine, washed them, and hung them up to dry.
Lin Huan used the small kitchen-dining room as his own place. He cooked two bowls of noodles, fried tomatoes and eggs, and asked Shi Ran to fill in the empty temple of the five internal organs together.
The two of them were eating and discussing how to investigate whether Liu Min had cheated on her. The woman came back humming happily.
When I entered the door, I laughed a lot. I ran to the pot and saw that there was still some noodles. I took them out, covered the remaining tomato scrambled eggs in the small wok, and sat at the table with Shi Ran and Lin Huan to eat.
"Hey, you two are making a lot of money now?" Liu Min asked.
Lin Huan looked at Shi Ran, and Shi Ran looked at Liu Min calmly, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"What's wrong with your salary? You're my daughter, right? She's your good friend, so she's half my daughter, right?"
Lin Huan choked in his throat, saying in his heart, "Don't be polite, I don't need a mother."
Shi Ran couldn't protest against Liu Min calling her "daughter" when he was happy. Liu Min originally planned to have a child after marrying Shi Jianning, and she was pregnant with one. One time, Shi Jianning was drunk and accidentally took Liu Min's daughter to her in the middle of the night.
Min kicked her foot and fell it under the bed, causing a miscarriage.
From then on, Liu Min never got pregnant again. For several years, she opened and closed her mouth to scold Shi Jianning for the kick that caused her to have no children. In order to coax Liu Min, Shi Jianning often said, "My daughter is your daughter."
Under the subtle influence, no matter how reluctant Shi Ran was, he had to shoulder the responsibility for the miscarriage for Shi Jianning, and he was a little more tolerant of Liu Min.
"You two live together. If each of you earns at least 10,000 yuan, the total is 20,000 yuan. How much is the monthly rent? How do you manage the remaining money? Do you want me to manage your finances..."
"No need." Shi Ran finished eating the noodles, took out a tissue and wiped his mouth, urging Lin Huan, "Eat quickly, we should go home after eating."
"Hey!" Liu Min became anxious, "I haven't finished speaking yet. The money you have given your father in the past few months has been too little. It is not enough at all."
As expected, the money given to Shi Jianning was equivalent to being given to Liu Min, and there was no chance of saving at all.
Shi Ran thought for a while and smiled, "Then you keep an account of the daily expenses at home. Starting from next month, you take a photo of the account and send it to my WeChat. I will use your account to see how much to give to my dad.
suitable."
When Liu Min heard this, she was very depressed, "How can anyone respect their parents and still read the account books?"
Shi Ran ignored her, waited for Lin Huan to finish the last bite of noodles, put the two bowls into the sink, and left the old street.
Lin Huan found out from her mobile phone that there were two gyms in Shiboyuan. She dragged Shi Ran back to Shiboyuan to look for them, but unfortunately she didn't see the muscular man today.
There is no conclusive evidence to prove that Liu Min has cheated.
But even if evidence is found and it is confirmed that she is having an affair, how should she deal with it?
