Chapter 403 A huge mountain weighing on her heart

The people around started whispering. They didn't like Zheng Manru in the first place. The big thing that happened today, that Pan Li's daughter drew a blueprint to solve the factory's difficulties, had already been publicized by Pan Li.

As a result, now she was being scolded by Zheng Manru, and everyone naturally knew what was going on.

"What do you know! It was her daughter who caused me to buy those cloths! She is now cleaning up her own mess!" Zheng Manru said angrily.

"This is the first time I've heard that someone else could force you to choose the style when you buy the cloth. Did she put a knife to your neck and force you to pay for it?" Pan Li said.

"She..." Zheng Manru didn't continue talking, as it would make her look stupid!

"Anyway, it's all her fault! Do you think I don't dare to look for her? I'll go now!" She strode out, and as she walked, she told the factory driver: "Go to Meng Mansion!"

In the past, the factory director gave her face and she could use the factory’s cars at will.

Pan Li was stunned. What did it mean to go to find Cheng Hui and Meng Mansion now?

What Meng Mansion? Sounds so familiar.

The next second she remembered the Meng Mansion, which was like a mountain pressing down on her heart.

In the first few years after she married Cheng Jianming, Cheng's relatives, friends and neighbors all compared her to Bian Lana in words and deeds. Naturally, she was nothing in the comparison!

It was not until 1966 that her life became better and those people no longer dared to say good things about Bian Lana.

But that mountain still weighed on her heart.

She also went to see Meng Mansion to see how big the mountain was... She went there once and never went there again because it was too big.

Now, Cheng Hui is in Meng Mansion? Why? Was she just going there temporarily or...why?

Pan Li didn't have time to cry and actually followed him out. She wanted to go and take a look.

As a result, Zheng Manru was seen sitting in a car and was stopped before she even left the factory gate.

From a distance, she heard the factory director's secretary say to the driver, "Hurry up, the factory director needs a car for a meeting, so you need to go right away."

He then said to Zheng Manru, "I'm sorry, Designer Zheng, please give way. The factory director's business is more important."

What can Zheng Manru say? Is it more important to talk about her private affairs?

Using public buses for personal purposes is not allowed now, but the inspection is not strict and no one is fussing about it, so you can use them however you want.

For example, Cheng Hui lets anyone use her car, and she even takes her sister-in-law for a ride when she has nothing to do, and no one has any objections.

But for others, if they keep harping on it, it will be a big deal, and any criticism in the form of a notice is just a small matter.

Zheng Manru was really afraid that Zheng Rong would use this matter to embarrass her again, so she got off the car reluctantly.

As soon as I came down, I saw Pan Li watching the show with a gloating look on her face.

She glared at him fiercely and squinted her eyes, "I heard that your biological daughter works in the machinery factory? Did she replace someone else in this position? Did she go through the normal procedures? Did she pass the selection of the machinery factory?"

As for replacing someone, except taking over the job of the parents, all other operations are actually against the rules, but again, it is something that can be turned a blind eye to.

Pan Li suddenly stopped laughing.

Zheng Manru then smiled and twisted her body back to the office. She would not take the bus to go anywhere. She hadn't taken the bus for many years!

If it was normal, she would have asked Qi Anguo's driver to pick her up, but now, Qi Anguo probably wouldn't give her that face...

She gritted her teeth and called Zhang Liang, asking him to pick her up!

By the way, I haven’t scolded Zhang Liang yet! I heard that he was the one who selected Cheng Hui's factory for import and export. What a prodigal son!

......

Pan Li stood there for a while, asked for leave, and rode her bike to Meng Mansion.

She wants to see what's going on!

The transportation to the entrance of Meng Mansion is very convenient. Get off at a station on Chang'an Avenue and walk 200 meters along a road that is neither wide nor narrow.

The last time she came to Meng Mansion was ten years ago. At that time, Meng Mansion had a decadent atmosphere.

No matter how good a house is, it will look abandoned if it is missing bricks and tiles, and has a yard full of weeds and broken bricks.

But now, it is very lively here, and there is a thriving atmosphere from inside to outside!

Several people are laying floor tiles in the yard!

Remove the broken floor tiles and replace them with neat bluestone slabs.

The ivy that covered the red brick walls had been removed, and several people were standing on the racks cleaning the wall bricks and replacing new tiles.

The door of the villa was open, and occasionally someone would hurried in and out.

Everyone’s aura is different from that of the workers in other factories. They are full of energy and their faces are glowing!

She stepped forward and was immediately stopped.

There were actually two guards standing behind the door, but she didn't notice them just now.

"Hello, which unit are you from? What are you doing here?"

The doormen were two young and handsome guys, and they spoke very politely.

"I, I'm looking for Cheng Hui. Is she here? I'm her mother."

The two guys were stunned and looked at each other.

One of them said, "Sorry, I have to check it out. Please wait a moment, I will ask!"

The other one looked at Pan Li with a smile on his face and was more polite, but conscientiously did not let anyone in.

If someone stands at the door and says that he is Director Cheng’s mother, will they let him in? The factory manager doesn't need to scold them for being brainless, they will scold themselves!

However, he didn't think Pan Li could lie about such a thing, so he smiled at Pan Li in a somewhat flattering manner.

These two security guards are from Beijing and were specially selected by Cheng Hui. They were not brought from the Northeast by her.

If they were colleagues from the Northeast, they would definitely not smile so beautifully when they heard that Cheng Hui's mother was here. They would roll their eyes at Pan Li!

After all, they all knew about Cheng Hui's affairs.

In order to prevent her from being morally kidnapped one day, Cheng Hui would always mention how her stepmother bullied her when chatting with others.

He ate leftovers, wore tattered clothes, had no pocket money, and got all his study supplies by picking up torn notebooks and pen tips thrown away by others.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was heartbroken.

With such conditions, even ordinary families in Harbin would be at the bottom of the society.

After all, Harbin is now a first-class city.

The security guard found Cheng Hui who was resting in the backyard and said, "Director, there is a woman at the door who is said to be your mother! She looks to be in her 40s..."

He slapped his forehead and said awkwardly: "Sorry, I forgot to ask your name."

Cheng Hui was stunned, then smiled and said, "No one should be a random mother. If she says yes, then she is a stepmother. My biological mother is abroad. This house was once my maternal grandparents' home, where my biological mother was born."

There is nothing she is afraid to say. Since her superiors dare to give her the use of it, she dares to say it!

She acted as if she didn't care and it was a normal thing, which discouraged those who wanted to make a fuss about it.

The guard was stunned: "Oh, stepmother..."

"Tell her to go back and tell her that I am at work now and will not see any private visitors. If she has anything to say, tell her to come to me after get off work. If not, don't come at all." Cheng Hui said.

"Oh, I see!" The guard turned and left.
