Lin Xi encountered an accident during a meeting and transmigrated into the daughter-in-law of a criminal official's family. She accompanied her husband on an exile of three thousand miles and s...

Chapter 232 The Troublemaker

Lin Xi felt strange and asked in a low voice, "Why are you stopping me?"

Wang Jing waved at Lin Xi, "I'll take you somewhere else to see."

After saying that, Wang Jing took Lin Xi to the room where rice paper was dried.

Firewood is burned inside all year round, and the master is placing rice paper on the hot wall to dry the paper.

Lin Xi looked in the direction Wang Jing pointed and saw a man sitting inside drinking tea.

It’s hard to imagine that people who work would drink tea in there.

"Why don't you care?" Lin Xi then realized that something was wrong. Wang Jing himself was very clear about these things.

Wang Jing smiled and said, "They have just arrived, so there is no need to manage them. After a while, we will know clearly which kind of people are self-conscious, which kind of people are lazy, and which kind of people like to lead others."

Lin Xi looked at Wang Jing's confident look and suddenly thought that this might not be a common tactic used by their Wang family.

"You mean, leave them alone for a while and then select them." Lin Xi understood instantly, "I understand. A journey of a thousand miles will reveal a person's true character."

Wang Jing smiled and said, "That's exactly the truth."

So, at Wang Jing's suggestion, Lin Xi went back to take care of the pregnancy temporarily and came back after a while.

After sending Lin Xi back, Xiao Yongyan returned to the paper mill again.

"Thanks to you just now." Xiao Yongyan said.

Wang Jing smiled and said, "It's what brothers should do. As long as you remember my kindness, write a few more articles for me."

Xiao Yongyan looked at Wang Jing coldly and said, "No need to talk about it."

Wang Jing was so angry that he said, "Xiao Yongyan, are you a human being? I have helped you, so what's the big deal if you help me?"

"I'm helping you? You're just taking my articles and selling them for money." Xiao Yongyan revealed Wang Jing's purpose in one sentence.

Wang Jing was a little embarrassed, "Writing an article is nothing to you."

Xiao Yongyan turned around and left silently.

Wang Jing: “…”

Well, I’m afraid I have completely offended Xiao Yongyan this time.

Another half month passed.

Just as Wang Jing had suggested before, Lin Xi had never shown up during this period, and only Wang Jing would come to supervise the work every day.

But his so-called supervision was just a formality. He was only there for two hours, and after that he either slept or drank tea, and did not do any real work.

The busiest person in the paper mill was none other than Zhang Chengye.

Finally, Zhang Chengye couldn't stand it anymore and went to find Lin Xi himself.

"Boss Lin, it's not my place to come to you, but the atmosphere in the paper mill is getting worse and worse." Zhang Chengye said.

When Lin Xi heard this, he immediately understood that it was time to rectify discipline.

She asked calmly, "How is the discipline bad, but someone is causing trouble?"

"It's not that reason. It's just that everyone has been unmotivated at work recently and is quite lazy." Zhang Chengye said.

"Lazy?" Lin Xi frowned slightly.

"Yes, especially the leaders like Ji Yong, who always refuse to work. Today they say it's too hot, and tomorrow they say they can't come because of family matters, but Boss Wang doesn't care at all." Zhang Chengye rarely talks so much to Lin Xi, "Why don't you talk to him and ask him to take care of these people."

Lin Xi seemed to be thinking about something. "The situation you described is indeed quite serious. I'd better go and take a look myself."

For Zhang Chengye, it couldn't be better if Lin Xi could go and see it in person.

Arriving at the paper mill, Zhang Chengye wanted to go in and call Wang Jing, but was stopped by Lin Xi.

"Just take me to find that Ji Yong." Lin Xi said.

Zhang Chengye nodded and took Lin Xi directly to the drying room. He pointed at the guy sitting on the bench and smoking and said, "That's Ji Yong. He was the one who instigated us to not work properly a few times."

"You stay here first, I'll go take a look." Lin Xi said.

That being said, Zhang Chengye knew that Lin Xi was pregnant, so he didn't dare to let Lin Xi go in alone. He quickly said, "No need, I'll call him out."

Lin Xi smiled and said, "No need, I won't go into the house."

She stood at the door and shouted into the house, "Ji Yong."

Ji Yong was fanning himself when he suddenly heard someone calling his name. He looked up and saw that the person calling him was none other than a pregnant woman.

The man next to him looked at Ji Yong mischievously, "Of course, now people have come to your door. What have you done?"

Ji Yong immediately denied it and said angrily, "I didn't mess around outside. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart."

The man was disdainful, "Isn't it just that he is afraid of his wife? I don't know why he chose the daughter of a butcher in the first place."

Ji Yong walked to the door, cursing, "Who are you?"

"Don't worry about who I am," Lin Xi said calmly, "It's working hours now, and not only are you not working, you're also smoking here. Isn't that inappropriate?"

Ji Yong was suddenly scolded by a young lady he had never seen before, and he found it very funny. "What does it have to do with you? You must be bored."

After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave. Zhang Chengye felt that he had never seen such a tactless person, "Ji Yong, how can you talk like that!"

Ji Yong said unhappily, "Zhang Chengye, you are just a worker, not the boss, don't talk to me in that tone."

Seeing the other party's arrogant look, Lin Xi also turned cold and said, "Come to think of it, you are the same as Master Zhang. What qualifications do you have to talk to others like this?"

Ji Yong looked Lin Xi up and down. It was really interesting. Where did this woman come from? She actually dared to scold him.

The argument between the two soon attracted the attention of others, who stopped what they were doing and looked over unconsciously.

"What qualifications do I have?" Ji Yong sneered. "If I were not here, this paper would not be produced. Let me tell you, drying is a skill that most people cannot do well."

Lin Xi smiled nonchalantly, "Since it's a craft, as long as you can do it, there will always be someone else who can do it."

Her attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, but in Ji Yong's opinion, Lin Xi was deliberately making things difficult for him and was looking for trouble.

"I'm wondering what your relationship is with Zhang Chengye. You're not pregnant with his child, are you? Why are you speaking in his favor like that?"

Before Ji Yong could finish his words, Zhang Chengye punched him in the face. Not feeling that was not enough, he punched him in the stomach several more times.

Everyone was shocked by the sudden change. Zhang Chengye actually hit someone!

Many people here know Zhang Chengye. They know that he has a bad temper and gets angry easily, but he has never really fought with anyone. But today he actually did it for the first time!

"Ji Yong, stop talking nonsense here. If you say one more word, I'll send you to see the King of Hell!"

Zhang Chengye's attitude was so intense that everyone naturally understood that the child in Lin Xi's belly definitely had nothing to do with Zhang Chengye.

At this time, someone in the crowd looked at Lin Xi and asked uncertainly, "Why do I feel that this lady looks a little familiar?"

He muttered to himself, and suddenly put his shoulder on another person's arm, "This is your boss, idiots."
