Zhou Yuanyuan’s previous life was a tragedy.
Her father and brother died early.
Her mother went insane and died.
At eighteen, Zhou Yuanyuan was sold by her so-called “relatives” t...
After Zhou Yuanyuan found out the whole story, she was stunned.
Liu Moli and Zhou Daniu? No matter how you look at it, it's like a flower stuck in cow dung. However, Zhou Yuanyuan wouldn't feel sorry for Liu Moli. I wonder if Zhou Daniu can handle such a "poisonous flower"?
However, these were not things Zhou Yuanyuan should worry about. In Zhou Yuanyuan's view, as long as Liu Moli or Zhou Daniu didn't cause trouble for their family, she wouldn't blink an eye if anyone did.
Call her selfish or heartless! Zhou Yuanyuan remembers clearly that she doesn't need a colorful life in her second life. She only hopes that the family she cares about will be safe and happy until they die.
Zhao Guohui had been feeling down for the past two days since returning from a meeting in the county. Something had happened at the supply and marketing cooperative, and it was a major incident.
Because it was nearing the end of the year, the county allocated a lot of supplies to the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative this month, including more than a dozen bicycles, more than 200 pieces of cloth, 500 kilograms of sugar, 500 kilograms of salt, more than 100 barrels of soy sauce, and some miscellaneous needles and thread.
The salt at the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative was almost sold out a few days ago, but Zhao Guohui hadn't seen the truck that was bringing in this month's restocking. He felt a little puzzled, so he took the opportunity to bring it up with Manager Wang during a meeting at the county.
Manager Wang produced a delivery note with the same handwriting as Zhao Guohui's. Even worse, the note was stamped with the official seal of the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
In those days, official seals weren't widely available. Even a piece of scrap paper could be used as a formal document if stamped with the official seal. Zhao Guohui personally kept the official seal of the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Every month, the accountant and cashier would stamp it in Zhao Guohui's presence.
In other words, the supplies allocated by the county to the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative were somehow transported directly from the county. The person who delivered the goods was carrying a note from Zhao Guohui, stamped with the official seal of the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Manager Wang was busy at the time, and since the person who came to pick up the goods had all the necessary paperwork, he didn't call Zhao Guohui to confirm.
Zhao Guohui was stunned. He was certain he had never written such a note before. Just looking at the handwriting, Zhao Guohui almost thought it was written by himself. The handwriting on the note was exactly the same as Zhao Guohui's usual handwriting, even the slight upward stroke at the end of the pen was consistent with Zhao Guohui's usual writing style.
It's the end of the year, and many more villagers are going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy New Year's goods. Without this batch of goods, some counters in the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative are almost sold out.
Manager Wang also broke out in a cold sweat. After careful examination, Manager Wang found that the official seal on the delivery note was a little blurry, and there was still a slight difference compared to the official bright red and clear official seal of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Manager Wang knew that he had been cheated. Such a large amount of materials had been "swindled" away from him. If this matter were to be exposed, he would no longer be able to work as a manager.
With the cooperation of Manager Wang, Zhao Guohui and Manager Wang used their own money to replenish the supply and marketing cooperative with daily necessities such as sugar and soy sauce. As for the bicycles and more than 200 pieces of cloth, Zhao Guohui could not afford to replenish the stock.
It's no wonder. The total value of this batch of goods is about 20,000 yuan. How can Zhao Guohui fill such a huge hole with a monthly salary of only 30 yuan? Not to mention that the supply of bicycles and cloth is planned. Even if Zhao Guohui and Manager Wang had money in their pockets, they couldn't get such a large amount of scarce materials.
There are only more than ten days left until the Chinese New Year. Every unit will take inventory before the New Year, and the Sanhe Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative is no exception.
This meant that Zhao Guohui and Manager Wang had to recover the missing goods before the Lunar New Year. Otherwise, when the year-end inventory was taken, the goods and the money wouldn't match, and they would definitely face jail time.
Zhao Guohui had made numerous phone calls over the past two days, asking friends and connections to help him find the truck, a blue Suzuki with a local license plate. Two days had passed, and there was no news of the truck, let alone the goods.
Sanhe Town is a small place, and only government agencies can afford to buy cars. As for individuals, no one can afford such an expensive item as a car.
In Zhao Guohui's impression, there are three blue Suzukis in the entire Sanhe Town, one belonging to the farm implement factory, the other to the purchasing station and the other to the brewery.
However, Zhao Guohui inquired with these three units and found out that last week, their drivers and their cars stayed in Sanhe Town and had not been to the county town at all.
Could it be... a vehicle from out of town? Zhao Guohui wondered.
It's been almost a week since the cargo disappeared. Such a large amount of supplies couldn't have vanished without a trace.
Zhao Guohui was so overwhelmed that he had to ask for help from Zhou Zhixin, who was always complaining at home and was so bored that he was almost growing hair.
Zhou Zhixin is the deputy commander of the reconnaissance battalion in the army and is good at discovering the truth from clues.
After receiving his brother-in-law's request for help, Zhou Zhixin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Having something to do was better than doing nothing all day. Most importantly, the more he helped Zhao Guohui, the softer Yunxiang's attitude towards him would become.
Zhou Zhixin knows Zhao Yunxiang very well. In essence, Zhao Yunxiang is a person who values the people around her more than herself. As long as the people Zhao Yunxiang cares about are doing well, she will let down her guard and reconsider their future.
Zhou Zhixin had been feeling particularly helpless these past few days. When Zhou Yuanyuan first came into the hospital, he hadn't gotten over the heartbreak of Zhou Chunping's murder attempt; he was completely dazed, as if he'd lost his soul.
It was no wonder that Zhou Zhixin couldn't understand why Zhou Chunping, who had always been respected by him, suddenly became a ghost that took away souls and lives. Over the years, he had been very devoted to the two elders of the Zhou family, and even his two brothers, Zhou Zhixin respected them very much.
When Zhou Yuanyuan was rushed to the emergency room, Wen Ziqing explained the situation to Zhao Yunxiang, who was accompanying her outside. After all, everyone in the Zhao family knew that Zhou Yuanyuan was still alive and kicking when Wen Ziqing took her out. What had happened that night to cause Zhou Yuanyuan to fall into a coma?
Wen Ziqing was a shrewd man. He knew that if he couldn't eliminate Zhao Qingshan and Zhao Yunxiang's dissatisfaction with him, he might not be able to get close to the little girl in the future. After all, the little girl was the treasure in the hearts of everyone in the Zhao family.
To impress his future mother-in-law, Wen Ziqing had no hesitation in selling Zhou Zhixin out. Honestly, Wen Ziqing had a grudge against Zhou Zhixin. If she hadn't been there for him, why would she have spent the entire night in the cold wind hanging from a tree? Zhou Zhixin should bear full responsibility for the little girl's coma.
Wen Ziqing had some grievances against Zhou Zhixin, so he would not hide anything for Zhou Zhixin. Wen Ziqing told Zhao Yunxiang everything that happened in Zhoujia Village that night.
