Shen Li stood in front of her and looked at her with amusement.

"I'm kneeling down in front of you, please forgive me this time!" As she said that, Li Cuicui knelt heavily on the ground.

If she goes to jail, her life will be ruined!

Not to mention marrying an officer, even if she married an ordinary person, she wouldn't be able to get married!

Li Cuicui knelt on the ground, crying and kowtowed to Shen Li.

"Alright," Shen Li had just arrived at the island and didn't want to make a big deal out of it. "You don't know my identity, so it's understandable that you doubt me. Let's just leave it at that."

Seeing this, the other military wives praised Shen Li even more.

"This sister-in-law is so kind!"

"Yeah, if it were me, I would have put her in jail! I didn't expect this sister-in-law to be so kind and easy to talk to!"

"Not only is she beautiful, she also has a kind heart."

Li Cuicui on the side clenched her palms.

This little bitch is really scheming!

Deliberately show tolerance towards yourself to win everyone's favor and gain a good reputation!

Fortunately, I don’t have to go to jail!

But she couldn't just watch Shen Li marry Captain Lu and become an officer's wife, because that would completely kill her chance!

"In that case, let's all go!" said the political commissar.

"I'm sorry for causing trouble for everyone." Shen Li said with a smile.

"What's the trouble? You should go back quickly. Captain Lu will be back with the children soon, and it's time to eat." said the political commissar.

Just like that, everyone dispersed.

Shen Li also returned home with Li Cuicui.

"I can let this matter go because you are not worth much." After returning home, Shen Li looked at Li Cuicui, "But since you are the nanny of the family, there is something I have to ask you."

"What are you asking?" Li Cuicui asked uncomfortably.

"You are the nanny of the family, but the refrigerator is empty," Shen Li's eyes were slightly cold, "How do you do as a nanny?"

Since she is Lu Jingchuan's girlfriend, she is also the mistress of the family and has the right to ask about family affairs.

How could a qualified nanny not notice the rotten vegetables in the refrigerator? She would definitely keep the house clean and tidy and fill the refrigerator with fresh fruits and vegetables.

This shows that this nanny is not competent.

If she hadn't thrown away the rotten vegetables, Lu Jingchuan and the two children would probably have to eat them tonight.

"I wanted to buy some vegetables, but I didn't have time to buy them!" Li Cuicui defended.

"Then why did you pick up the vegetables I threw into the trash can?" Shen Li said with a frown.

"These dishes are all good, why are they being thrown away?"

"Good?" Shen Li's lips curved slightly, "Will good onions rot? Will good potatoes grow teeth?"

"It may be rotten on the surface, but you can still eat the rotten inside!" Li Cuicui glared at Shen Li, "Besides, potatoes this big have grown teeth, so if you dig out the green sprouts, can't you still eat them?! You've just got married and you're already wasting money. How can you live with the captain in the future!"

"Even if you dig out the rotten parts of the vegetables, there will still be bacteria and mold inside. Eating them is not good for adults or children." Shen Li snatched the rotten onions and potatoes from her hands and threw them into the trash can. "I don't think Lu Jingchuan's conditions are so bad that he lets his children eat leftovers all day long, right?"

"You..." Li Cuicui glared at Shen Li angrily, unable to speak.

Shen Li looked at the clock on the wall. More than twenty minutes had passed since Lu Jingchuan left.

Shen Li didn't have time to argue with her anymore, "Lu Jingchuan should take the children home soon, go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some food."

Li Cuicui had no choice but to nod, reluctantly, "Okay."

"I need three pounds of pork tenderloin, one pound of noodles, one pound of tomatoes, ten pounds of eggs, one pound of sugar, five pounds of glutinous rice, one pound of dates, and one pound of red beans. Buy some more onions, ginger, and garlic. Go ahead." Shen Li said lightly.

"Buy so many things? Can we eat them all?!" Li Cuicui wondered.

"Isn't there a refrigerator? Everything we can't finish is stored in the refrigerator." Shen Li said.

Li Cuicui spread out her hands, "You can let me buy something, but you have to give me money first!"

Shen Li: "How much money does Lu Jingchuan usually give you for groceries per month?"

Li Cuicui: "...sixty yuan."

In this day and age, sixty dollars a month is already very high.

"What about the money for groceries?"

"The two children and the adults have nothing to eat or drink, and they ate it all up!" Li Cuicui glared at Shen Li angrily.

Anyway, Shen Li just arrived and she doesn’t know anything about what happened in the past!

"Okay, then I'll give you five dollars to buy vegetables. I believe the supply and marketing cooperatives have clear prices for vegetables and meat, and you know how much you're going to spend." Shen Li took out five dollars and handed it to Li Cuicui.

Li Cuicui glared at Shen Li, took the money unhappily, turned around and was about to leave.

"Remember to hurry up, Lu Jingchuan will be going home with the children soon." Shen Li looked at her back and said lightly.

"I know!" Li Cuicui left quickly.

She stored the money Lu Jingchuan gave her, her own money and the stamps in the space.

Shen Li sorted all the toys and placed them neatly, found a piece of light orange lace cloth, placed it on the dining table, found a clean glass bottle, poured water into it, picked some bougainvillea outside the yard, trimmed them neatly, and placed them in a vase, which she placed on the dining table. The sunlight shone in through the glass, and the whole room was filled with warm colors like an oil painting.

Shen Li admired this scene with satisfaction.

At this time, Lu Jingchuan came back with two children, one big and one small.

On Lu Jingchuan's left hand was a short three-year-old girl. She was wearing a pink dress, skinny and small, with very little flesh on her body. Her arms and legs were as thin as poles, as if they would fall over if the wind blew.

Her jet-black hair was tied up messily at the back of her head, and she was holding a worn-out teddy bear doll in her arms. Her face was pale and thin, and her big black eyes looked at her curiously and confusedly.

The moment their eyes met, the little girl hid behind Lu Jingchuan, holding the teddy bear in her arms.

"Duoduo, this is Shen Li," Lu Jingchuan held Duoduo's hand and said after a pause, "She is my girlfriend. You can call her Aunt Shen."

Duoduo hid behind Lu Jingchuan and peeked at her, pursing her lips and saying nothing.

Shen Li knew about Duoduo. Duoduo's biological mother died of complications during childbirth. Duoduo was weak since birth. She was withdrawn and liked quietness. In her previous life, she had heard Shen Mengyue complain more than once that the little jinx (Duoduo) was a sickly person who had to take medicine every day to replenish her body. She also said that she was a freak. She had cursed her more than once, wishing that the little jinx would die soon.

"Duoduo, hello." Shen Li walked forward, smiled gently, and reached out to touch Duoduo's hair, but was stopped by a boy.

At this moment, a boy in a blue vest and black pants was staring at Shen Li vigilantly with his dark eyes.
