Zhao Donglai was well aware that it was because of today’s comndation eting; everyone else was being praised, while only they were being criticized, so they were definitely feeling unbalanced.
This wasn’t a good sign for a team.
Taking advantage of the end of a day’s training, before announcing adjournnt, he deliberately ntioned this issue.
"I know everyone must be feeling wronged today."
"But there’s no need to be discouraged. Although you missed out on the comndation this ti, a few days ago Luo Fei and I already discussed, and I plan to apply to Director Zheng for so old unsolved cases to investigate when the ti cos."
"So as long as everyone perks up, there will be no shortage of opportunities for ritorious service."
Luo Fei wanted to solve more cases to accumulate Gold Coins, so a few days ago, when there was nothing to do, he took the opportunity to ntion it to Zhao Donglai.
As long as he was confident in solving the case, Zhao Donglai would naturally be pleased and imdiately agreed to ntion it to Zheng Changjun after the training ended.
His words indeed had an effect, and the people who were just frowning were instantly excited.
"Captain Zhao, are you serious?"
"Do I have to lie to you about sothing like this? If you don’t believe , you can ask Luo Fei."
Having been nad, Luo Fei nodded decisively, "I do plan to do this, so let’s work hard together when the ti cos."
"Great, I knew that following Leader Luo, we’d have no worries at all!"
"Leader Luo, Lord Luo... you’re simply our god, and we’ll rely on you in the future!"
"Lord God, please carry us..."
With hopes rekindled, everyone changed from their previous low mood, started joking with smiles, and the atmosphere instantly returned to its usual lively state.
This is more like it, Zhao Donglai nodded in satisfaction.
Then he heard soone jokingly say, "Captain Zhao, Leader Luo, since you both have received two honors, shouldn’t you at least do sothing to celebrate?"
"That’s right, you must do sothing, to comfort our wounded spirits."
Once soone led the way, everyone imdiately followed suit in creating a ruckus.
However, treating everyone to a al was definitely impossible; with so many people, it would surely cost several thousand again.
In the end, the two of them decided to simply order so barbecue and fried chicken for takeout, and after work, everyone had a lively al in the cafeteria.
With this episode, everyone’s enthusiasm was again boosted.
After half a month of training, on July 10th, it was payday again.
At exactly noon, Luo Fei received a text ssage that his salary had been credited.
Those eating in the cafeteria mostly received their ssages too and were inquiring about how much others had been paid.
Zhang Wei, who was sitting next to Luo Fei, naturally asked about his salary.
"Leader, how much did you get paid this month?"
Luo Fei put away his phone and casually asked, "How about you?"
"I only got seven thousand nine hundred, which is more than four thousand less than last month." Zhang Wei said with a bitter face.
At this ti, He Xin and Lin Jie, sitting opposite him, also spoke up.
"I only got eight thousand five."
"I got about the sa as you."
The basic salary for ordinary police officers in the city criminal police team is five thousand five, plus all sorts of allowances, it’s about seven or eight hundred.
He Xin and Lin Jie’s working ti is longer than Zhang Wei’s, so each month they receive a few more hundred in allowances than he does.
So, when added up, they got only about a thousand more in bonuses this month.
This was unprecedented.
At first, Zhang Wei thought it was a calculation error, but hearing that everyone got similar low amounts, he was shocked.
"Why was this month’s salary so low?"
"I guess it’s due to the Guo Jing case. I heard Captain Zhao ntioned before that although we won’t be punished, last month’s performance bonus would be reduced a bit."
"So that’s the reason..."
Upon understanding the reason, Zhang Wei had nothing more to say and could only look once again at Luo Fei.
"Leader, this has nothing to do with you, so your salary last month should have been quite high, right?"
"Hmm, it was just over thirteen thousand."
"That’s about right. Your basic salary was already two thousand higher than ours, plus you had two rits last month."
Although Luo Fei’s salary made the three of them a little envious, it didn’t cause a big reaction, and after two sentences of discussion, they dropped it.
However, Luo Fei hadn’t told them the truth.
His salary this month was actually a bit higher than last month.
Last month, it was his first month in the team, and because he solved Old Wu’s case, he received around fourteen thousand.
This month, he directly received over twenty-four thousand.
But not all of this was salary; so of it was rewards from the anti-drug team and the Guo Jing case.
Calculating it, the salary wasn’t much different from last month’s.
Upon returning ho Friday night, Luo Fei kept so living expenses and handed the rest of his salary and bonuses to Wu Yan to save.
Wu Yan, hearing that he was comnded again, smiled from ear to ear and imdiately planned to buy so groceries the next day to celebrate.
"By the way, Luo Fei, you have over two hundred thousand in savings now, do you have any plans for this money?"
"Mom, you an...?"
"I was thinking that you and Yang i are not young anymore, maybe you should consider personal matters."
"Even if you’re not planning to get married now, I think it’s better to buy a house first. Otherwise, the house prices go up every year, and buying early will give you peace of mind, and by the ti the house is renovated, it’ll be just in ti for your wedding."
Wu Yan said, looking at him intently, "What do you think?"
"Mom, I’ve thought about it too, but I still haven’t decided whether to buy in the city or the county. Maybe I should discuss this with Yang i first."
"Yes, that’s the right approach. It’s a matter for the two of you, so you should ask for her opinion."
As the two were talking, Luo Xiaoxiao, who ca out of the room, happened to overhear them.
"Mom, are we buying a new house?"
"That’s great! Then we’ll have our own ho!"
She said with excitent, only to be tapped on the forehead by Wu Yan for a lesson, "What nonsense are you speaking? Haven’t I taught you anything? That’s your brother and Yang i’s ho."
Wu Yan was one of those relatively open-minded parents.
She didn’t think that just because her son bought a house, it belonged to the family, and she hadn’t even planned on moving in with her children.
If her son gets married, he will have his own family, and when it’s ti to let go, she should let go.
Otherwise, getting involved can not only affect the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship but can also easily cause problems between the couple.
She already felt guilty for not being able to help Luo Fei much, so she didn’t want to create more trouble for him.
Moreover, she’s getting older, and supporting Luo Hao and his sister through college won’t be practical; she could only count on Luo Fei to help more. Therefore, she was being reasonable so that in the future, when Luo Fei spends money, Yang i wouldn’t have any grievances.
She indeed considered all aspects.
Luo Xiaoxiao, having been frequently admonished by her, imdiately stuck out her tongue, "Mom, I know. When I grow up, I’ll earn money to buy my own house."
"That’s more like it."
Listening to the conversation between mother and daughter, Luo Fei felt a wave of emotion in his heart.
Indeed, having such an open-minded mother like Wu Yan is his luck.
However, he still expressed his stance, "Mom, my ho is also your ho. Why divide it so clearly within the family?"
"If I indeed buy a house by then, you all must live with !"
"Having you say this makes very satisfied, but never say these words in front of Yang i."
"Mom, Yang i is not that kind of person..."
"I know, Yang i is a kind-hearted good girl. Precisely because of this, we should be more considerate. Besides, when you get married, we can’t all tag along. What would that be like?"
Afterward, Wu Yan gave Luo Fei a long heart-to-heart conversation about family and marriage for half an hour.
It wasn’t until Luo Fei repeatedly pleaded, saying he’d taken it to heart, that she finally let him go to sleep.
The next day, she indeed cooked up a big spread, not only inviting Yang i but also Wu Zhiwei and Wu Xiaohui, and everyone had a al together.
Upon hearing about Luo Fei’s achievents again, Wu Zhiwei and Wu Xiaohui naturally praised him once more.
Because of this, Wu Xiaohui also scolded her daughter Zhao Zhenzhen because Zhao Zhenzhen’s college entrance exam scores this ti were not very satisfactory, only allowing admission into a second-tier university.
The family was still hesitating whether she should repeat a year or go to college directly.
In the end, it was Luo Fei who suggested letting her repeat a year.
