Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s-Chapter 832: Eight hundred and thirty, can’t afford to provoke

Wu Xiangyang slammed the table forcefully, glaring with fierce eyes and roared, "I don’t need you to go out and work, nor do I need you to increase our family’s income. Just behave yourself!" Usually she could do whatever she wanted, but this matter alone, he would never agree to it.

Captain Lu is no ordinary person, not to mention he cannot provoke him, even Chief Bai might not be able to provoke him either. If he really listened to his wife and stirred up trouble he shouldn’t have, it would truly be too late to regret.

Startled by Wu Xiangyang’s shout, the little girl cried out "Wah!" and burst into tears.

Jiang Linlin didn’t make a sound anymore, just hugged the little girl and gently patted her back, silently soothing her. This was the first time her husband had erupted in such anger; it seemed he really didn’t dare to confront that Captain Lu. Maybe she should look into getting on good terms with Luo Shu herself.

Seeing his wife’s aggrieved look and lowered head, Wu Xiangyang’s anger dissipated, and he kindly said, "Linlin, I’m not trying to be fierce, but Captain Lu and his wife, they really are not someone we can afford to provoke. Captain Lu and his wife used to live in the Northwest Guard District, and next to their house lived a Squadron Leader. Because that Squadron Leader’s wife provoked Captain Lu’s wife, that Squadron Leader was forced to retire from the military. I’m not even a Squadron Leader now; provoking Captain Lu and his wife wouldn’t that be uncomfortable?"

"Is that really true?" Jiang Linlin looked at Wu Xiangyang skeptically, trying to find signs of lying on his face, but after looking for a long time, there was no trace of guilt. Lu Hanmo and his wife don’t seem like such domineering people.

Wu Xiangyang nodded, "If you don’t believe it, you can ask around. Many people in the Guard’s Members Courtyard know about this matter."

Jiang Linlin fell silent immediately. If this matter was true, then she’d rather not work. Her husband is a Centurion, and when returning to their hometown, others’ gaze towards her was different. If her husband was forced to retire, she would not only not be respected, but she could also be ridiculed by others.

Seeing Jiang Linlin not speaking, Wu Xiangyang spoke, "Linlin, do you still want me to approach Captain Lu?"

Jiang Linlin sighed, "Nevermind." She would just watch how things unfold.

The sunshine was bright, and the birds were singing cheerfully in the trees, making one feel very pleased.

Lin Helian, with light steps, walked into the sales point, greeted her coworkers and then squatted down to start arranging her counter. Only by frequent organizing of the counter could she familiarize herself more quickly with the prices of the products.

A few Guard’s Wives saw Lin Helian entering the sales point, their faces full of disbelief.

"Could Sister Helian be working at the sales point?"

"That shouldn’t be possible; you need a local household registration to work at the sales point, could she be here to buy something or meet someone?"

"Shall we go check it out?"

"How can we check? The sales point isn’t open yet."

"I think we should first go buy groceries, after buying groceries then come back here. If she’s here, we’ll definitely see her."

"That’s what we’ll do." The suggestion made by that Guard’s Wife was quickly approved unanimously by the other Guard’s Wives.

The Guard’s Wives, carrying their grocery baskets, headed towards the market. It was the town closest to the Guard District, where they usually shopped.

While Lin Helian was arranging the counter, she heard someone calling her and stood up to look, only to see a few Guard’s Wives from the Guard District.

"Ladies, why are you here?" Lin Helian was somewhat surprised. She knew even if she didn’t mention she was working at the sales point, it would eventually become known. The school term was about to begin, many Guard’s Wives would come to the sales point to buy stationery for their children, so encountering acquaintances was inevitable.

"My youngest is starting school, I came to buy him some stationery," one of the Guard’s Wives smiled. She definitely wouldn’t admit that they had followed her here.

"What stationery does Sister Xu need?" Lin Helian asked. Since she had been discovered, there was nothing to hide anymore.

"Sister Helian, are you working here?" one of the Guard’s Wives asked.

Lin Helian nodded, "It’s my second day working."

"How did you get this job? I heard gaining employment at the sales point requires a local residence registration."

Lin Helian pretended not to hear the question and looked at Sister Xu who wanted to buy stationery for her son, "Sister Xu, what stationery do you need? I’ll get it for you."

Sister Xu thought for a moment and said, "Five HB pencils and two exercise books."

"Okay." Lin Helian responded, bending down to gather the pencils and notebooks Sister Xu wanted, and then handed her a slip, "That will be one yuan and two cents, Sister Xu, please go to the cashier over there to pay."

Sister Xu nodded, took the slip, and walked towards the cashier.

"Sister Helian, how did you manage to get employed at the sales point?" This was what everyone wanted to know most.

Seeing everyone staring at her, Lin Helian smiled and said, "Introduced by a friend." It seemed she wouldn’t be let off without an answer today.

"Your friend isn’t Sister-in-law Lu, is it?" one of the Guard’s Wives probed.

"My friend isn’t Sister-in-law Lu, but she knows Sister-in-law Lu," Lin Helian saw Sister Xu coming back with the slip and reached out to take the slip from her hand, then handed her the requested pencils and notebooks.

"Really not Sister-in-law Lu?" Everyone was visibly skeptical.

"Really not Sister-in-law Lu, if you don’t believe it, you can ask our Director." Seeing Wang Haiyang come in, Lin Helian shifted her gaze to Wang Haiyang. The Director wasn’t aware that it was Luo Shu who arranged the job for her; he only knew it was a senior leader.

The Guard’s Wives followed Lin Helian’s gaze and saw a somewhat overweight middle-aged man walking in.

Seeing so many Guard’s Wives looking towards him, Wang Haiyang was a bit surprised and looked at Lin Helian, "Xiao Lin, who are they?"

"Director, they are Guard’s Wives from the Guard District, they came to the sales point to buy stationery and happened to see me, so they came over to say hello," Lin Helian smiled.

Wang Haiyang nodded understandingly and walked towards his office.

"Director! Please wait a moment! I have a question to ask you," a Guard’s Wife called out to Wang Haiyang.

Wang Haiyang stopped and turned his head, somewhat surprised, to look at the Guard’s Wife, "Go ahead." Was she going to ask him about employment?"
