Chapter 235 Complaint
After the sports meet, two more certificates were posted on the wall at home. Summer vacation soon arrived, and the Ling Xiaoguang brothers had some time to rest after a long time.
But Ling Zhuoqun did not give the two brothers a chance to breathe. Whenever he had time, he took the two brothers to exercise. In just two months, the two little guys started to grow taller and even taller than their peers.
Many children, seeing Ling Xiaoguang and Ling Xiaolei grow taller, cast envious glances at them and asked Ling Xiaoguang and Ling Xiaolei how they grew taller.
The two brothers smiled at each other and said, "Mom cooks delicious food for us in different ways every day. If we get enough nutrition, we will grow taller naturally."
When they got home, they clamored for their mother to make delicious food for them, but what they got in return was a beating.
"But, this is what Big Mao and Little Mao eat every day. I want to eat too. I want to grow taller too!" Erniu rolled on the ground, looking like he wouldn't get up unless he was given delicious food.
Erniu's mother was also furious: "Your father is incompetent and can't make money. Do you think you are the little prince? You can have whatever you want to eat?"
Erniu groaned: "Then I will recognize Uncle Ling as my father!"
For a time, many children often lay at the gate of the Ling family, staring at the Ling family eating delicious food all day long, with their saliva dripping down a meter.
As a result, many women had complaints against Li Luo, which forced them to improve their living standards.
However, some people couldn't help it in the end. The family conditions were not good to begin with, and they had to prepare food for the adults every day to provide nutrition for the children. The adults had no energy to work.
So someone told the village women's chairperson, Xin Lu, about this.
Xin Lu has a special identity and has seen the world, so she has her current position thanks to the recommendation of several people.
"Director Xin, you said that the Ling family doesn't let the children eat properly every day. They only want to eat meat to grow and drink milk. Even their family members don't recognize them. Does this mean that everyone in the village has the surname Ling?"
Xin Lu didn't expect that she had never had the chance to cause trouble to Li Luo, but now was a ready-made opportunity: "Li Luo, you fell into my hands this time, it has nothing to do with me."
So, Li Luo was invited by Xin Lu to her home for tea: "Li Luo, do you know why I asked you to come here today?"
Li Luo was totally confused. He was so busy every day and had never provoked anyone, so why was he invited here by Xin Lu?
"Someone has reported you, saying that you have made the village a mess. Everyone is very dissatisfied with you. Do you know?"
Li Luo shook his head: "Xin Lu, apart from taking care of the kids and going to the clothing store every day, I hardly interact with the people in the village. How can I make the village so chaotic?"
"I dare not admit the crime you are accusing me of."
"You have a feast every day at home, and you let Da Mao and Xiao Mao show off in front of the children. The children are greedy to begin with. How can you raise them if you do this every day?"
Li Luo was so angry at Xin Lu's bandit logic that he laughed: "They don't have the ability to make money, so they are jealous of our family because we have meat to eat and milk to drink? We can give our children a good life, so we will naturally do our best to give them the best."
"That's what you said, but since you are in the village, you should contribute to the village. In this case, your family can pay to buy a cow for everyone, so that every family can let their children come to get milk, and no one will bother you."
Li Luo looked at Xin Lu's self-righteous expression, feeling as if she was being taken advantage of. Did the words "stupid and rich" appear written on her head?
"Xin Lu, do you see words carved on my face?" Xin Lu was confused: "You haven't committed any crime, how can there be words carved on your face?"
"You also know that I have not committed any crime, right? I don't have the words 'stupid and rich' written on my face. Why should my family contribute a cow to the village just because you say so?"
"If there's nothing else, I won't waste my time here. Yaya is still waiting for me to coax her to sleep at home." Li Luo was speechless. If it wasn't for the fact that Xin Lu was an official, he would not have come here at all.
"Li Luo! If you can buy this cow, I will propose to the village to give you the position of director or deputy director of the Women's Department." Xin Lu raised her head, as if she had the golden coat of official position and Li Luo would have to look up to her.
Unexpectedly, Li Luo didn't even turn his head: "Sorry, I'm not interested in being an official."
"Since Director Xin wants to be an official so much, why don't you sacrifice yourself a little and use your money to benefit the villagers and buy them a cow to improve their lives."
After saying that, Li Luo left Xin Lu's house without looking back.
On the way home, there was a dark shadow that gradually caught up with Li Luo's pace. Just when Li Luo felt that he was about to be caught up, someone suddenly called him.
"mom!"
When Li Luo looked, it turned out that it was Ling Xiaoguang and his brother who came out together, followed by Ling Zhuoqun, who hugged Yaya.
Seeing this, the black shadow first made a "tsk" sound, slowed down his pace, and then walked into a nearby alley.
Li Luo also hurriedly ran towards the light. When he came to Ling Zhuoqun, his calves were trembling.
"Luoluo, are you okay?" Ling Zhuoqun held Li Luo in his arms.
"I'm fine, why did you come out?" Li Luo asked, gently stroking his chest.
"Dad was worried about you, so he told us to go to Aunt Xinlu's place and wait for you. But when we were almost there, we saw Mom coming back."
"Mom, why is there a strange uncle following you? He ran away when you saw us." Ling Xiaolei tilted his head in confusion.
"It's a pity that we didn't see that person. Next time we go out, my brother and I will go with mom. Then we can protect her."
A warm feeling passed through Li Luo's heart: "Thank you, Da Mao and Xiao Mao, you have saved mom today." Li Luo smiled and touched their heads.
"I didn't expect that there is someone in the village who dares to follow others so blatantly. It's a pity that it's too dark here and I can't see anything clearly. Otherwise, I will definitely catch him!" Ling Zhuoqun's eyes narrowed and he was slightly angry.
It’s a pity that they had no evidence. The man just followed Li Luo, but they didn’t catch any evidence against him. Otherwise, Ling Zhuoqun would definitely not sit idly by.
"Is there something that Xin Lu wants to talk to you about this time?" Ling Zhuoqun asked in order to ease Li Luo's mood.
Li Luo shook his head: "It's just an insignificant matter. I have already rejected it. It's okay."
However, Li Luo did not expect that Xin Lu would be so shameless. The next day, she brought people to Li Luo's house and forced him to pay for the cow.
