Chapter 23 Master Shen
Xu Ruibing's words brought a moment of calm to the surroundings. At this moment, Chen Hongying said sharply: "Comrade Public Security, are you wrong? How come Shen Lin is not a thief?"
All eyes were once again focused on Chen Hongying.
The main reason for this is naturally because Chen Hongying is Shen Lin's mother-in-law. As a relative, her reaction is really surprising.
Xu Ruibing glanced at Chen Hongying coldly and said, "Whether he is a criminal or not, we will use evidence to prove it ."
"If you have no evidence and are still making up rumors here, you will be held legally responsible."
When Xu Ruibing glared at her, Chen Hongying suddenly became a little afraid. She lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything more.
"Everyone, the radios that Comrade Shen Lin sells are all broken radios that he collected and repaired himself, turning them into treasures."
Xu Ruibing ignored Chen Hongying and continued loudly: "If you have any broken home appliances in the future, I think you can find Master Shen Lin. We can prove that he is definitely a good repairman."
This sentence has caused a lot of discussion among people.
"Shen Lin can actually repair radios. I didn't expect this guy to have such skills."
"Tsk tsk, the radio in our house is always silent. I wonder if Shen Lin can fix it."
"If you have this ability, you won't starve to death even if you are fired!"
Aunt Chen, who was standing aside, rubbed her hands and said, "I knew it. How could a good kid like Shen Lin be a thief?"
"By the way, Master Shen also repaired a broken old imported color TV two days ago, which helped Master Liu from our institute a lot. He no longer has to worry about not being able to buy a TV for his son's wedding."
Since Xu Ruibing wanted to make friends with Shen Lin, he didn't hide anything and just revealed the matter of the old color TV.
Although he did not say how much money Shen Lin earned, the way people present looked at Shen Lin changed.
Although many people think that radios are difficult to repair, there are still people who know how to do it.
But it is a large color TV, and one that was imported from abroad. It is definitely not an ordinary person who can repair it.
"Brother Shen, if you can really fix the broken color TV, then take it from me in the future. But you must leave one for me. I'm looking forward to getting married." A young man standing in Maoluo shouted loudly to Shen Lin.
His shout immediately resonated with several families who needed TVs, and others followed suit, saying, "Shen Lin, if you have one, remember to give one to uncle."
"Xiao Shen, I'm very good to you. If you have good things, I can't be left out."
Looking at the enthusiastic faces, Shen Lin said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely keep this in mind. I will send it to you as soon as possible when I have it in the future."
Lu Xiaorong stood quietly aside, feeling very relaxed at the moment.
A smile appeared on her face inadvertently.
"Oh..." Before she was ready to speak, she suddenly felt an overwhelming nausea rising from the bottom of her heart.
At this moment , he couldn't vomit no matter what. Lu Xiaorong covered his mouth and took deep breaths according to the experience he had summarized some time ago. Finally, he suppressed the discomfort.
But her face began to turn pale.
Am I sick?
Having achieved his goal, Xu Ruibing smiled and said to Shen Lin: "Master Shen, I have completed the task assigned to me by the director. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to come to the institute to find me."
As he spoke, his eyes fell on Chen Hongying again and said, "Auntie, don't just believe what you hear in the future. Everything must be based on evidence."
Chen Hongying's face turned red and white, but facing Xu Ruibing, she had to endure it even if she felt uncomfortable.
Accompanied by the roar of the motorcycle, Xu Ruibing left quickly.
Some neighbors who knew Shen Lin quickly surrounded him.
"Shen Lin, I didn't expect you to be capable of this!"
"I knew you wouldn't steal, Shen Lin. Some people didn't believe it, but now they have no choice but to believe it!"
Shen Lin thanked the neighbors and invited them to come in and talk. Most of the neighbors looked at Chen Hongying with contempt and then left.
After most of the onlookers had left, Shen Lin said to Chen Hongying, "Mom, you're tired too. Shall we go home and rest for a while?"
After all, she is Lu Xiaorong's mother. Although Shen Lin doesn't like Chen Hongying, he has to give face to Lu Xiaorong.
Otherwise, Lu Xiaorong would feel very embarrassed.
"Shen Lin, don't think that you are nothing great just because you didn't steal anything." Chen Hongying, who was a little angry, put her hands on her waist and shouted at Shen Lin: "We must get a divorce."
"I'm telling you, I won't watch our Xiaorong and you suffer for the rest of your life."
Lu Xiaorong, who had been listening, was just about to speak when Chen Hongying turned around and walked towards the door angrily.
"Shen Lin, my mother's attitude is not good, you..." Lu Xiaorong looked at his mother who was walking away and said to Shen Lin helplessly.
She knew very well what her mother was here for, so at this moment, she felt a lot more guilty towards Shen Lin.
Shen Lin looked at Lu Xiaorong who was hesitant to speak, and said with a smile: "Xiaorong, isn't your mother my mother? How could I blame my own mother?"
"Besides, the reason why Mom misunderstood me was entirely because of my previous performance, which disappointed her so much. I will behave well in the future and try to make Mom accept me."
Tears began to well up in Lu Xiaorong's eyes. She knew very well why Chen Hongying treated Shen Lin like that.
Now Shen Lin’s words made her feel a little touched in her heart!
Looking at the silent Lu Xiaorong, Shen Lin said with a smile: "Let's go back quickly, otherwise the neighbors will think I bullied you again."
When he got home, Shen Lin took out the six hundred yuan and said, "Xiao Rong, keep this six hundred yuan for now."
Lu Xiaorong looked at the thick stack of big unity notes, hesitated for a moment and said, "You should keep the money you earned."
"I'm careless and often lose things. Although six hundred yuan is not a lot, it's still painful to lose it." As Shen Lin spoke, he stuffed the six hundred yuan into Lu Xiaorong's hand without questioning and said, "Please keep it for now. I'll ask you for it when I need it in a few days."
Lu Xiaorong looked at Shen Lin, who was determined, and finally said, "Okay, I'll keep your money for you temporarily."
Lu Xiaorong said the three words "your money" very seriously, as if he was serious.
Looking at Lu Xiaorong with a hint of arrogance in her expression, Shen Lin felt a little warm in his heart. In his memory, Lu Xiaorong was originally a somewhat proud girl.
Her pride made her keep many things to herself. Her pride eventually made her store all her resentment in her heart. Her pride also caused her...
"Brother Shen, Brother Shen..."
Just as Shen Lin was lost in his memories, a shout came from downstairs.
When Lu Xiaorong heard the shout, he frowned immediately.
