Chapter 68

Meng Jinyu heard about the factory director's family affairs from her colleagues at work.

The medical level was not perfect more than 20 years ago. Bai Junjie was sent to the delivery room at that time. The delivery was not smooth and the natural delivery was converted to a cesarean section. During the delivery process, the doctor operated improperly and mistakenly used forceps to clamp the baby's head. After that, Dalong became what he is now.

More than 20 years ago, in the 1950s, Meng Jinyu had read relevant reports in her previous life. At that time, the cesarean section rate was only 1%-2%!

If the situation during childbirth had not been too dangerous, how could Bai Junjie's parents and in-laws agree to send her to the operating room?

The birth of the child was a great blow to Bai Junjie.

But she was very tenacious. Slowly, she stepped out of the shadows and began to concentrate on taking care of Dalong.

When Dalong was young, he often went out to play.

However, after observing him, Bai Junjie found that every time he went out, he would look even more dull when he came back. She suspected that there were kids of the same age secretly bullying him outside.

Dalong himself would not complain. Even if he was bullied, he would just smile foolishly. No matter what loss he suffered, he would just swallow it.

Therefore, in order to protect her son, Bai Junjie kept him at home and did not let him go out.

So until now, Meng Jinyu has never seen the big dragon.

I heard from colleagues that Director Mo and Bai Junjie would occasionally take Dalong out for a walk after dinner.

Dalong has low intelligence, but looks clean and polite. Everyone says that the fact that he is taken care of so well is inseparable from Bai Junjie's selfless dedication and hard work.

"Brother Dalong is so nice. He is Youyou's best friend in the staff compound!" Youyou said softly.

Meng Jinyu rubbed Youyou's head.

Dalong has suffered a lot in the past twenty years. If Bao Xiaoyan tries to get close to him to ask for favors, it would be a shameless act.

…

Bao Xiaoyan bit her lip, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Her eyes fell on Dalong.

He sat on the ground and ate candy, smacking his lips, enjoying the food very much.

"Sister Bai, I don't know how to tell my parents." She said softly, "Give me some time, okay?"

Bai Junjie sighed.

Dalong is getting older. Now he is in his twenties. If he were a normal person, he would have been married long ago.

But how could he get married if he was so special?

Dalong's marriage became a concern for her and her husband, and they were extremely worried. But even so, she never thought of harming other girls.

Until Bao Xiaoyan appeared.

That day, Bao Xiaoyan came home, told her about her experience at home, and begged her leader to allocate her an independent house.

This was unprecedented in the unit. After all, Bao's father had worked in the factory for decades, and the unit allocated a large house to their family, enough for a family of four.

However, when Director Mo and Bai Junjie were about to reject her, they suddenly discovered that she got along very well with Dalong.

Dalong has had few friends since he was a child. Bao Xiaoyan took the initiative to talk to him and play with him, as if she didn't dislike him at all.

After that, Bao Xiaoyan often came to the Mo family, and every time she came, Dalong would happily pester her.

Bai Junjie was deeply moved, but what Bao Xiaoyan said afterwards was something she never expected.

Bao Xiaoyan said that she was willing to marry Dalong.

Bai Junjie thought about it for a while.

Her health is not very good, and the couple will eventually grow old. It would be great if there was a suitable girl willing to marry into the Mo family and take care of Dalong.

She was moved.

But even though Bao Xiaoyan did this voluntarily, Bai Junjie still felt that it was not very fair. So she treated Bao Xiaoyan very well, buying her any good things she saw, and even made an exception to promote Bao Xiaoyan to become deputy team leader of the garment group.

However, several months have passed and Bao Xiaoyan has not mentioned anything about marriage.

Seeing Bao Xiaoyan looking aggrieved, Dalong's grandmother asked in confusion, "Little girl, are you unwilling? Our family has never forced you. If you don't want to, you can just say it."

Bao Xiaoyan lowered her head with red eyes.

Bai Junjie was also stunned for a moment: "It doesn't matter, if you think it's inappropriate, we won't mention it again in the future."

Bao Xiaoyan bit her lip and twisted her hands together.

Bai Junjie and Director Mo looked at each other.

Bao Xiaoyan felt empty.

She was unwilling to marry Dalong, but was also worried that she would be framed.

Her tears fell slowly, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"My little wife - my little wife - don't cry." Dalong ran over, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wanted to wipe her tears.

But when he held the handkerchief in his hand, he hesitated for a moment, then clenched it tightly.

This handkerchief was used by him to wipe his nose, and it is no longer clean.

He quickly ran to his room again, took out a brand new handkerchief and wiped her tears.

"No, don't cry, little wife."

Bao Xiaoyan shook her head: "I am not your little wife."

Dalong thought for a moment and said, "That means they are good friends!"

"Forget it, I understand." Bai Junjie said, "Go back, and pretend this never happened."

When Bao Xiaoyan left, Dalong looked at her reluctantly and waved his hand, asking her to remember to visit him next time.

Bao Xiaoyan kept nodding and saying sorry.

It was not until she had left for a long time that Old Lady Mo sat on the chair angrily and slapped the table: "I have never seen a girl with so many tricks. Don't let her take the position of deputy team leader. Drag her down!"

Bai Junjie was silent for a moment, then said, "She is really kind to Dalong. But it's no wonder she can't accept our child being like this."

Director Mo also sighed deeply.

…

After dinner, Meng Jinyu took the bowl to the aisle to wash it.

Youyou couldn't sit still, so she came out to help.

Not long after, they saw Bao Xiaoyan coming back out of the corner of their eyes.

Bao Xiaoyan's steps were light. Although her eyes were still a little moist, the corners of her lips were slightly raised.

According to what Bai Junjie said just now, the marriage should be cancelled.

Although she felt a little embarrassed, she was relieved after all.

What's more, Dalong is totally devoted to her, and Bai Junjie would not let the leaders of her unit make things difficult for her just for Dalong's sake.

It’s a pity about that scarf.

Thinking of the scarf that Bai Junjie bought from the department store, Bao Xiaoyan felt a little sad.

It’s a pity that I can’t take such a beautiful scarf home and use it myself.

"Sister Jinyu." Bao Xiaoyan greeted with a smile.

Meng Jinyu nodded gently: "Have you eaten?"

"Not yet." Bao Xiaoyan hesitated for a while and walked to her side. "Sister Jinyu, what are you and Team Leader Shen busy with recently? Are you doing something in private? Can you take me with you?"

"What else can I be busy with?" Meng Jinyu said with a smile, "You are the deputy team leader of the group. You know best what I do on a daily basis."

Bao Xiaoyan hit a snag but didn't give up. She waited until Meng Jinyu came into the room to get the plates and then pulled Youyou in front of her.

"Youyou, what has your mother been busy with lately?"

Youyou knew that her mother was very busy these days.

My house was filled with bell-bottom pants, and I sold them all a while ago.

But the little girl would not say this, so she said in a baby voice, "I was busy sending Youyou and my brother to school, busy working, and busy cooking."

Bao Xiaoyan rolled her eyes: "Anything else?"

"Of course there is." Youyou nodded slightly.

"Anything else?" Bao Xiaoyan raised her eyes and glanced in Meng Jinyu's direction, lowering her voice, "Talk to Sister Xiaoyan."

But just as she finished her words, she saw the little girl shaking her hands and splashing water all over her face.

Bao Xiaoyan was stunned, then her face changed. Just as she was about to blame, she heard Youyou speak.

"And there's also washing dishes." Youyou tilted her head and said obediently.

Bao Xiaoyan felt embarrassed, her eyes darkened, she pursed her lips, and turned to go home.

As soon as she entered the house, she was pulled aside by Bao's mother.

"I ran into the old lady from the factory director's family this morning. She said you've been going to their house quite often recently."

"Xiao Yan, tell me, is there something going on between you and Da Long?"

Bao Xiaoyan's face changed.

Even though she had close contacts with the factory director's family, her colleagues at the unit never made any random guesses. Everyone knows what Dalong's situation is like, how could anyone think that she would be interested in him?

"Mom, don't talk nonsense." Bao Xiaoyan stamped her feet, "How is it possible?"

Bao's mother looked disappointed. "I think it's good for you to be with Dalong. His family is well-off and his parents are good people. Most importantly, they know they owe you a lot and can give you a lot of gifts. When the time comes, you will have this backer and your salary in the company will increase. Maybe you can even become a director."

Bao's father also stepped forward and said, "More than just director. If the factory director and his wife think highly of you, it's not impossible for them to make you a higher-ranking leader."

Bao Xiaoyan always knew that her parents were different from other parents, but she still felt sad when she heard with her own ears that they wanted her to marry a fool.

With red eyes, she whispered, "Even without them, I can still be a leader with my own abilities."

During this period, she suddenly figured it out.

If she wants to get rid of her current family, she can only rely on herself. Just being a deputy team leader can change the views of people around her. So, if she becomes a team leader, a director, or even climbs higher...

Bao Xiaoyan bit her lip.

Shen Yuqing and Meng Jinyu must be doing something secretly. As long as she finds them out and makes great contributions, she can move up with her own abilities.

At this moment, hearing the quarrel coming from next door, Meng Jinyu was already certain that Bao Xiaoyan was able to become the deputy team leader by taking advantage of Mo Dalong.

If this continues, she might get more opportunities, but the room for development for herself and Shen Yuqing in the unit will become less and less.

At the same time, given Director Mo's conservative style, it is unknown when he will realize that institutional reforms should be made. If he continues to stick to his old ways, I am afraid that in a few years, this unit will not be able to keep up with the times.

While Youyou was asleep, she took out the iron box she had hidden.

There is already more than a thousand dollars in it.

Can this thousand yuan help her have a better development?

For example, leaving the city.

Meng Jinyu planned to make a fortune before the unified purchase and sale policy was abolished.

But she would have to wait.

This policy was abolished in the early 1980s, and it is still more than a year away.

…

Early in the morning, Youyou carried her schoolbag and went to school with her brother.

There are so many things to do in the city’s schools. It’s only been two months since the start of the semester and it’s already time for midterm exams.

Youyou doesn’t like exams because during exams, the adults are too quiet. In such a quiet atmosphere, the little one is often coaxed to fall asleep.

Several times when she woke up, she was facing Teacher Jin's face. Teacher Jin's face kept getting bigger and bigger in front of her eyes, and Youyou was almost scared.

Later, Teacher Jin called her to the office and told her that she could not sleep during the exam, even if she had finished the answer sheet, as it would have a bad impact.

Youyou didn’t understand.

She was writing her test paper and then fell asleep after finishing it. How could that bother others?

However, she is a good child who is well-behaved and knows how to cooperate with the teacher. Since Teacher Jin has said so, Youyou has to be obedient.

At this time, during the midterm exam, Xiaotuanzi completed the test paper and forced himself to stay awake no matter what!

Her eyelids were drooping, and the rustling sound of the pencil on the paper was so hypnotic. Youyou propped up her eyelids with her two little hands, yawned, and her face flushed.

"Youyou--Youyou--" Suddenly, someone poked Youyou's back from behind.

Youyou was just about to stretch, but was awakened by this poke.

She turned around curiously: "What's the matter?"

The little boy behind him hesitated and twisted his body: "Can you lend me your paper to copy?"

Youyou was shocked. This is cheating!

Lu Zhengnan actually called her a cheater!

"No." Little Dumpling lowered his voice and said seriously.

Lu Zhengnan's face fell: "I really can't write it. Otherwise, you can move your body to the side and let me read it, okay?"

peep?

Of course not!

Youyou immediately straightened her chest and guarded her test paper tightly.

"Get out of the way right now and give me the test paper. Otherwise, I will beat you after school!" he said again.

Now that I’ve said that, Youyou should probably give in, right?

When Lu Zhengnan thought about it this way, he felt at ease and stretched his neck to peek at the answer.

However, after he opened his mouth, Youyou began to fight seriously.

She moved to the left, then to the right, and finally turned her face seriously to the side, using her chubby cheeks to block the last gap.

Lu Zhengnan was almost crying with anxiety.

He stood on tiptoe several times, trying to see the answer, but the teacher on the podium finally noticed the movement here and slowly looked in his direction.

Lu Zhengnan became obedient. He lay down dejectedly and looked at his paper, at a loss as to what to do.

The bell rang for the end of get out of class.

The test papers were collected.

Lu Zhengnan stood up angrily.

He is well-known for being tall in this class. This time, he was arranged to sit behind Youyou because the teacher was afraid that he could not keep up.

At this moment, he glared at Youyou's back angrily and decided to give her a good beating to vent his anger.

However, just as he reached out to grab Youyou's braid, she turned around.

Youyou turned around and put her textbook on Lu Zhengnan's desk.

"The question just now was so simple, but you couldn't even write it. Well, let me teach you!" said Youyou.

But just as she finished speaking, she found that Lu Zhengnan was standing there with a puffed face, looking unconvinced.

Youyou said unhappily, "You can't even finish the test paper, and you're standing up and running out? You're not allowed to go play, sit down!"

Lu Zhengnan was stunned.

Half a minute later, he was pulled by the "little teacher" Youyou, sat down and started studying.

"Can you do this math problem?"

“Yes, no…”

"Is it true or not?"

“A little bit…”

"Then you need to use your brain and think carefully! Also, your handwriting is so ugly, like a puppy crawling."

"I, then I should practice?"

“You have to practice hard!”

Looking at this scene, Teacher Jin was very pleased.

Students with excellent academic performance motivate their less capable classmates to study and improve together. This is the power of role models!

…

In a blink of an eye, several months passed.

In the blink of an eye, it was the second half of 1979.

Meng Jinyu estimated that the unified purchase and sale policy would be cancelled after the new year, so she pulled Shen Yuqing aside to discuss the next direction.

She wanted to secretly take out some money and open a silk shop outside.

Nowadays, they still need tickets to buy cloth. They first buy "Dika" cloth, and through the connections accumulated by Shen Yuqing over the years, they find a printing and dyeing factory for processing and then sell it. The profit is huge.

Their "Di Ka" cloth does not require cloth coupons, and because they reduce the middlemen, they can probably make a lot of money.

This time, the plan was a bit risky, but Shen Yuqing's eyes lit up when she heard it: "The policy is going to change. I've heard some rumors that the cloth coupons might be cancelled. This time, we should do it quietly, just like the bell-bottom pants last time."

Meng Jinyu calculated the time and realized that the unified purchase and marketing policy would soon be cancelled, and by then socialism would also be able to develop a commodity economy. Even if someone discovered what they had done, they would not be charged with "speculation and profiteering."

Of course, it is better to be cautious.

The two of them acted as soon as they made a plan and started to take action.

Bao Xiaoyan discovered that although Meng Jinyu and Shen Yuqing did not make any mistakes when working in the unit, whenever the two got together, they would whisper to each other, as if they were discussing something important.

What's more, Meng Jinyu lived next door to him and she often went out at night.

Bao Xiaoyan sensed something was wrong.

In the past few months, the factory director's family no longer invites her to dinner from time to time, and Bai Junjie no longer gives her gifts. Bao Xiaoyan's only confidence is the good "friendship" she maintains with Dalong.

She guessed that the factory director and his wife still held out a glimmer of hope, so they were quite polite to her.

In this case, she must press on to win.

As long as she can find out what Meng Jinyu and Shen Yuqing are doing, Shen Yuqing's position will be lost and she will be promoted.

In the evening, while everyone was off work, Bao Xiaoyan took a flashlight and secretly returned to the unit.

She entered Shen Yuqing's office, then went to Meng Jinyu's desk and opened the drawer.

Finally, Bao Xiaoyan found some cloth.

She held the fabrics in her hands, feeling confident.

…

"Where's Dalong? Why isn't he at home?" Bai Junjie searched the house but couldn't find her son.

"Dalong went out to play with his friends." said Mrs. Mo.

Bai Junjie was extremely anxious and ran out of the door.

How come she didn’t know Dalong had friends?

Although Dalong is not a child anymore, to her, he is just like a child. What if he runs out alone and is bullied by other children?

Bai Junjie became more and more worried and quickened her pace.

At this time, there were quite a few children in the yard, but Dalong was not among them.

"Have you seen the big dragon?" she asked, pulling a child.

The child's face changed and he waved his hands vigorously.

Bai Junjie noticed something was wrong and frowned: "Why are you so scared?"

The naughty kid quickly said, "We didn't mean to let him eat the chili peppers. We won't dare to do that again."

It was not until then that Bai Junjie realized that her son had been fed red peppers by these children.

She was so angry that her eyes turned red. She criticized them harshly and asked which department their parents worked in.

"Where is Dalong now?" Bai Junjie asked again.

“Maybe he went to play with Youyou by the pond outside the compound.” A child said, “They often play together.”

Bai Junjie's heart skipped a beat.

Who is Youyou?

Also, by the pool...

She was worried that Dalong would be bullied again.

Bai Junjie ran out of the compound in panic.

Looking at her back, an older child said, "Why did you tell others about us feeding Dalong red peppers? She didn't ask, so why didn't you confess?"

"Wow, wow, wow - I thought she was so anxious because she knew about it. Now it's over. What should I do if she goes to our parents about this? I was just beaten by my parents a few days ago because I didn't do well in the exam, and now... wow, wow!"

"We're definitely going to get beaten up...it's all your fault!"

The naughty kids were very worried.

At this time, Bai Junjie had already run to the edge of the pool.

At first, she thought her son would be pinned down and bullied, but she didn't expect to see such a scene when she stopped.

By the pool, Dalong and Youyou sat side by side, looking at themselves in the pool as if they were looking in the mirror. When they found that their images were really reflected in the pool, they would laugh and poke the pool lightly with their fingers.

"Look, our faces are gone!" Youyou said softly.

Dalong was confused. He tilted his head to look at himself on the water, but found that he couldn't find himself.

After a while, Youyou laughed and pointed at the pool: "We are here again!"

This time, Dalong also smiled, nodded vigorously, and looked excited.

Looking at this scene, Bai Junjie's eyes became moist.

She had never seen Dalong laugh so happily.

Even when Bao Xiaoyan came home to play with Dalong, he never showed a childlike smile like he does now.

"Mom." Suddenly, Dalong saw Bai Junjie and shouted.

Youyou blinked and greeted politely.

Bai Junjie came over and ruffled her hair: "You are Comrade Meng's daughter, right?"

"Yes, my name is Meng Youyou." The little girl said with a smile.

Dalong held Youyou's hand and grinned: "Youyou! Good friends!"

Bai Junjie's heart softened, and she sat down and played with them.

Not long after, Dalong saw Bao Xiaoyan passing by in the distance. He pointed at her figure and said, "Young wife!"

Bao Xiaoyan didn't hear it and quickly turned into the staff compound and walked away.

Youyou's eyebrows were twisted into a knot: "So you two know each other. If you know each other, why didn't Sister Xiaoyan help you last time?"

Bai Junjie felt something was wrong and asked, "Youyou, what happened last time?"

Youyou told the story seriously, repeating what happened last time.

Dalong didn't know how to complain, so she did it for him: "Dalong was fed peppers. I asked Sister Xiaoyan to accompany me to tell his parents, but Sister Xiaoyan shook her head and left immediately."

After she finished speaking, Youyou continued playing with Dalong.

Bai Junjie's eyes gradually darkened.

She always thought that Bao Xiaoyan was sincere to Dalong, and it was natural for her to be unwilling to marry him, and she should not be blamed.

But I didn't expect that when they were outside, Bao Xiaoyan always disliked Dalong and pretended not to know him...

So, when Bao Xiaoyan put on a kind and innocent look in front of the couple, was she just pretending?

…

Three days later, Bao Xiaoyan went to see Director Mo with some pieces of cloth.

A few minutes later, Meng Jinyu and Shen Yuqing were also called to the factory director's office.

Seeing Director Mo coming to question them, the two men looked at each other and understood what was going on.

"I've told you many times not to be reckless. The reason why our factory has always been so profitable is because our output is stable. Only by moving forward steadily can we have long-term development. Don't be like you, always wanting to make some weird clothes that are different from others! I've reminded you many times, but you secretly got so much fabric behind my back! If it weren't for Xiaoyan, I really wouldn't know what you did in private!"

Bao Xiaoyan stood aside, looking at them helplessly: "I really didn't expect that you would actually - Isn't this a betrayal of the factory director's trust in you? Team leader Shen, Sister Jin Yu, you should apologize to the factory director as soon as possible."

Shen Yuqing said: "Director, that's not the case. These fabrics are for us to make new clothes for ourselves."

Bao Xiaoyan was stunned: "Impossible, you just don't accept it, so you secretly cooperate with the garment factory outside... I also found a business card of a garment factory and gave it to Director Mo."

"The director of the garment factory is surnamed Zou, right?" Chen Yuqing sneered. "He is my uncle. If you don't believe me, you can go ask him. The last time we met, I asked for his contact number and he gave me a business card. I put it in the drawer, but I didn't expect someone to find it."

Meng Jinyu also said: "It is definitely not the case that we are secretly cooperating with garment factories outside. We selected these fabrics and wanted to make some clothes for ourselves. After all, the New Year is coming soon."

It’s not a lie. Although they work alone, they do not cooperate with other garment factories!

Shen Yuqing and Meng Jinyu's explanations were well-reasoned and quickly convinced Director Mo: "Did I wrongly blame you?"

Bao Xiaoyan's face turned red and white, especially when she was asked why she secretly went through their drawers, she was suddenly speechless.

She lowered her head and admitted her mistake.

I thought the matter was over, but who knew that not long after, Bai Junjie also came.

Bai Junjie proposed to Director Mo to remove Bao Xiaoyan from her position as "deputy team leader" on the grounds that her frequent "reporting" behavior destroyed the collective cohesion of the garment team.

…

Bao Xiaoyan is no longer the deputy team leader of the garment group.

The colleagues who had been suppressed by her before started to be rude to her.

It was only fair that they treat her the same way she had treated them before.

She was so angry and embarrassed that she became more and more silent.

But who knew that not long after, she would suffer an even bigger blow.

It turned out that Bao's mother learned from Old Lady Mo that Bao Xiaoyan had taken the initiative to ask to marry Dalong.

Bao's mother didn't know what Bao Xiaoyan was thinking, but she didn't want her daughter to go back on her word, so she publicized Bao Xiaoyan and Dalong's "marriage" in an attempt to "force the issue".

After her colleagues learned about this, they looked at her with strange eyes.

In everyone's eyes, she became a person who would do anything to achieve her goals.

Bao Xiaoyan was in great pain, but what made her even more painful was that when she was desperate and returned to the Mo family and asked them to help her clarify the matter, Bai Junjie refused.

Bai Junjie, who was always easy to talk to, treated her coldly and said that if she continued to pester or take advantage of Dalong, she would never let her go.

Bao Xiaoyan was scared, and because she was worried, she made a mistake at work.

Director Zhang did not give her any chance to explain and directly transferred her to the sewing workshop.

The work in the sewing workshop is not as decent as that in the garment group. The work tasks are much more tedious, and the income is greatly reduced.

Bao Xiaoyan was almost at her wit's end.

She wanted to fight back so badly that she was like a possessed person. Whenever Meng Jinyu went out, she would follow her secretly.

It was Chinese New Year and the company was on holiday. Bao Xiaoyan kept a close eye on Meng Jinyu and actually discovered something wrong.

She discovered that Meng Jinyu and Shen Yuqing had secretly opened a private workshop outside and sold "Di Ka" cloth at a low price.

How can you sell Deika cloth without cloth coupons?

Bao Xiaoyan wrote an anonymous letter, ran out late at night, and secretly stuffed it into the crack of the police station door.

…

During the New Year, the staff compound is very lively.

All of Meng Jinyu's children came, and laughter could be heard from the house every day.

Bao Xiaoyan could feel that Meng Jinyu's financial situation had improved significantly. She ate delicious food all day long, and she even heard the children talking about television.

Could it be that their family is going to buy a TV?

The Meng family and the Bao family are separated by only a wall.

The Meng family was filled with laughter all day long, but the laughter in her own home only came from her parents and younger brother. Bao Xiaoyan was deeply stimulated.

Almost every day, she was urged by her parents to marry Mo Dalong in exchange for some dowry money, but how could she be willing to marry a fool?

Bao Xiaoyan has lost a lot of weight.

She waited day by day, hoping that the police would see the anonymous letter of complaint as soon as possible and come to arrest Meng Jinyu and Shen Yuqing. Only in this way would she feel better.

Moreover, after the two of them were caught, she would tell her superior that she was the one who did this good deed, so that she could return to her original position.

But who knew that the public security comrades never came.

Afterwards, news came that the unified purchase and marketing policy would be cancelled.

In other words, from now on, even without cloth coupons, people can still buy cloth, and Meng Jinyu has not violated any rules.

Bao Xiaoyan froze.

Why is Meng Jinyu's luck so good?

…

Years later, Meng Jinyu was promoted to deputy team leader of the garment group.

When Bao Xiaoyan heard that her position was finally replaced, there was no expression on her face.

She went to the Mo family and proposed to Bai Junjie that she was willing to marry Mo Dalong.

The only thing that answered her was Bai Junjie's disdainful look.

"If Youyou hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known that you were so shunning my son. Bao Xiaoyan, my son is indeed mentally retarded, but that's no reason for you to take advantage of him. I always thought you were a sincere and kind lesbian, but I didn't expect you to be such a mean person."

The Mo family had never thought of forcing Bao Xiaoyan to marry Mo Dalong in the past, and they would not do so now.

Moreover, through this incident, they completely gave up the idea of ​​letting Dalong get married.

Bai Junjie said a lot of things, but only the first sentence exploded in Bao Xiaoyan's mind.

If Youyou hadn't told her...

It’s Youyou.

It's all that kid's fault!

Bao Xiaoyan left the Mo family in a trance.

…

Meng Jinyu sat in the room and counted them carefully.

Now, even she herself could not imagine that she could make a lot of money by selling "Dika" cloth at a low price.

At this moment, Jiang Guo's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it and asked, "Ten thousand yuan household?"

Jiang Cheng quickly covered her mouth, but his expression was as shocked as his sister's: "Is he really a millionaire?"

Meng Jinyu did become a millionaire.

If it were in later times, ten thousand yuan might not be a big deal, but this is the 1980s.

On this day in 1980, she earned her first ten thousand yuan through her own ability.

As she said, risks and opportunities coexist, and she survived the risks twice in a row.

But she is a person who seeks stability after all. After achieving certain results, Meng Jinyu decided to stop for a while.

In later generations, Jiangcheng is not a first-tier city, but the housing prices are not low.

She wanted to buy a house in Jiangcheng and then go to Beijing.

No matter how the future develops, the house in Jiangcheng will always be the confidence and retreat for her and her children.

But where should I buy a house?

Meng Jinyu thought about it and decided that the place where she lived now was the most suitable.

But she will definitely resign. How should she communicate with her unit leaders to buy a house of at least 50 square meters before resigning?

Just as Meng Jinyu was thinking this, an urgent voice came from outside the house.

"Jin Yu, go to the office quickly. Your daughter has been taken to the rooftop by Bao Xiaoyan."

"And Dalong! You know Dalong's situation. I'm afraid he might push Youyou..."

It was like a bolt from the blue, and Meng Jinyu's heart seemed to be suddenly pinched.

She stood up immediately and rushed out.

Jiang Cheng and Jiang Guo were also frightened. They held their younger brother and followed their mother's footsteps.

Chunyu Garment Factory has three floors. At this moment, Bao Xiaoyan, Dalong and Youyou are standing on the terrace on the top floor.

If you fall from such a height, you will be disabled if not killed.

A hint of coldness flashed in Bao Xiaoyan's eyes.

With red eyes, she said to Dalong: "Your parents bully me, my colleagues bully me, and Youyou also bullies me. Dalong, will you help me?"

There was a piece of candy in Dalong's mouth.

He brought the candy from home. He and Youyou each had a piece, and they both ate it with gusto.

But just when they were having fun, Bao Xiaoyan brought them to the factory and to the rooftop.

At this moment, Dalong looked down and his legs were trembling a little.

He looked at Bao Xiaoyan strangely, digesting what she said.

Youyou...bullying the young wife...

"Good friends." Dalong said vaguely while holding a candy in his mouth.

Bao Xiaoyan's eyes flashed with a fierce look. She gritted her teeth and her eyes were red. "Yes, we are good friends. You protect me and push her down, okay?"

Youyou’s eyes widened when she heard this.

She waved her hands vigorously and shook her head: "No, no! Brother Dalong, you can't do this!"

As he spoke, the little girl glanced at her mother, older brothers and sisters, her younger brother, and several uncles and aunts from the unit who had already run up.

"Mom! Wuuuuuu - Youyou is scared." Youyou shouted for help, "Carry Youyou back!"

Comrades in the unit all spoke up, asking Dalong to come back quickly and not to stand on the edge of the rooftop terrace to avoid falling.

"Why do you come here to play?"

"Xiaoyan, the child and Dalong are ignorant, don't you understand either? Hurry and let them come over!"

Hearing these voices, the coldness in Bao Xiaoyan's eyes deepened.

That’s right, even if Dalong pushed Youyou down, they would not think that she instigated it. At most, they would think that she failed to stop him.

So, she lowered her voice and continued to say to Dalong: "So many people are bullying me, will Dalong help me? Help my young wife and push Youyou down."

"Good friend--" Dalong still murmured.

Bao Xiaoyan nodded, stepped closer, stood at the edge of the terrace, and looked deep: "Look, I am your little wife, and also your good friend..."

She looked at Youyou with a sinister look.

Fall down...

If Youyou is thrown down, this child will never be so lively again.

Looking at her eyes, Youyou was terrified.

How did Sister Xiaoyan become like this?

She didn't dare to move her little feet and just shrank her neck quietly.

Meng Jinyu's face was almost as pale as paper. She didn't dare to go forward, let alone make a sound, for fear of upsetting Dalong or Bao Xiaoyan, and putting Youyou in danger.

Her heart was in her throat, as if she was standing on a cliff with an abyss below.

Jiang Cheng and Jiang Guo realized the seriousness of the situation. They held their breath and clasped their hands together, almost twisting them into a knot.

"Youyou..." Tears also flashed in Shanshan's eyes.

He stood there nervously, afraid that Youyou would fall if he was not careful.

All eyes fell on Dalong.

"Dalong, what's wrong with you? Come back quickly with Youyou!" Bao Xiaoyan pretended to be anxious and shouted.

Director Mo and Bai Junjie also arrived.

They didn't even dare to breathe and looked at Dalong in disbelief.

This child has never hurt anyone since he was a child. This time he won't...

They placed their hopes on Bao Xiaoyan, hoping that she could coax Dalong back.

Bao Xiaoyan cried, "Dalong! You can't push Youyou down, it's very dangerous!"

But the next second, she lowered her voice and coaxed softly: "Dalong, push her down, I will buy you some candy. It's the kind of candy in your mouth, very sweet, right?"

The corners of Youyou's mouth turned down, and tears welled up in her watery eyes.

It's so scary.

She had never seen an adult like this before.

"Push her down, and I'll buy you some candy." Bao Xiaoyan continued to coax Dalong in a gentle tone.

Youyou started to shiver.

There was no railing on the edge of the terrace. She glanced down quietly, then closed her eyes tightly, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

"Be good, Dalong. Push her down and avenge your young wife..."

Suddenly, Youyou felt her body floating in the air.

Brother Dalong grabbed her with his big hands and lifted her up.

The little girl trembled even more violently, shook her head vigorously, flapped her legs, and her little face turned pale.

She didn't want to fall down, it would be so painful...

Looking at Youyou trembling with fear, a strange light flashed in Bao Xiaoyan's eyes.

She not only hated Meng Jinyu, but also hated the child.

This child is also the older sister in the family, but why is she so innocent and naive without any burden on her shoulders?

“Yes, throw it down.” She looked at Dalong who was holding Youyou and continued to encourage him softly, “Throw Youyou down the stairs.”

"Da Long! What are you doing!?"

"Look carefully! This is dangerous!"

"It's over. How can Dalong understand what we are saying?"

Everyone's heart was gripped.

Dalong held Youyou in his arms, looked downstairs, and blinked gently with his clear eyes.

Seeing his appearance, many people couldn't bear to watch and turned their heads away.

Youyou shook her head vigorously, her face wrinkled into a ball, and she shouted, "Brother Dalong, no!"

Bao Xiaoyan was confident.

But who knew, the next second, Dalong hugged Youyou tightly, turned around and ran away.

Bao Xiaoyan froze and looked at him suddenly with a look of surprise.

"Da Long!" she shouted.

Dalong is totally devoted to her, and besides, he is a fool.

This fool will listen...

"Good friends! Good friends!" Dalong ran huffing and puffing. When he was halfway there, he heard Bao Xiaoyan's voice, so he stopped and turned back.

The little dumpling slowly opened his eyes and found that he was temporarily safe.

But it's not completely safe yet.

She was terribly frightened, and still afraid, so she couldn't hold back her tears and burst into tears again: "Wuwuwu——"

Bao Xiaoyan was in a state of confusion. When she saw Dalong turning around, she pointed at her mouth and said, "Candy...I'll buy you candy...Be good."

He stood there straight.

He has a low intelligence and has no idea of ​​right or wrong. He cannot distinguish between good and evil, and he doesn't understand what love is.

He only knew that Youyou was his best friend and he couldn't bully his good friend.

Neither can young wives.

After a moment, the silly Dalong met Bao Xiaoyan's gaze silly.

Then, he spat out the candy in his mouth, just like what Youyou had taught him to do when he spit out the chili pepper.

"yue!"

After saying "yue", he held Youyou and ran towards the adults.
