Two days later, something of moderate importance happened in Beijing.
It's not a big deal, but it's made the news again. Many people know about it and are talking about it.
It's not a small matter because the main characters are members of the Liu family, and it's a sex scandal.
Liu Hao, who is almost fifty years old, has been exposed for having a mistress and son outside of his marriage.
The illegitimate children are all adults, eighteen or nineteen years old, which is half a year younger than Liu Baozhu, the eldest daughter of the Liu family.
Liu's daughter-in-law, Feng Lanjiao, got into a fight with her husband's mistress, and the two scratched each other.
They were all cursing each other, calling each other mistresses and vixens, saying they had no shame.
Liu Wenqing and Liu Wucheng, the two young masters of the Liu family, even beat up that illegitimate son.
Feng Lanjiao and her three children threatened to drive the mistress and her illegitimate child out of Beijing.
Whether Liu Hao was bewitched or genuinely fed up with his wife, he openly defended his mistress and illegitimate child.
He berated his wife, saying that if she didn't know what was good for her, he would divorce her and marry his mistress.
Liu Hao also said that he, the eldest son of the Liu family, was deceived by Feng Lanjiao, a village girl, back then.
If she hadn't been shameless enough to seduce him and even get pregnant, how could he possibly have married her?
When Grandpa Liu found out, he was so angry that he almost fainted and gave his son Liu Hao a severe beating.
This story circulated in Beijing for several days, although not many people actually witnessed what happened.
But many people knew about it and gossiped about it in private, making it quite a family drama.
Meanwhile, what outsiders didn't know was that something else was happening in the Jiang family as well.
Jiang Tengfei, who had been in the army for almost ten years, originally thought he had a good chance of being promoted to regimental commander.
Two or three years ago, due to personal matters and a disciplinary record, my promotion application was rejected by my superiors and I am still awaiting evaluation.
Chen Xihua had some speculations about the uproar that came from the Liu family, suggesting that the Lu family might be behind it.
A few days later, Chen Xihua asked her older sister to transfer another 200,000 yuan to her card, as she planned to buy a car.
Originally, the car that my second sister left in the courtyard was supposed to be for Chen Xihua to drive, but she didn't want it.
As for that car, I don't know how the second sister tricked the fourth sister into giving it a 20% discount, and then sold it to the fourth sister.
Chen Xihua found it amusing and guessed that her second sister was probably saving up to buy a sports car worth over a million.
She even asked her second sister about it, "Second sister, aren't you afraid that people in your unit will talk about you or suspect something because you drive such an expensive car?"
Chen Jinhua said indifferently, "What did they say? That I have improper income?"
No, if they were to say anything, it would be that they envy me.
Everyone in my unit knows that my fifth son owns a company and is a big boss with money.
Moreover, they treat me the best, giving me dividends. I have a younger sister to support me; they can't be envious of that.
Chen Xihua almost choked on her second sister's words. "Second sister, you often show off in front of them, aren't you afraid they'll gang up on you?"
The second sister scoffed, "I'm not afraid of three or five people coming at me at once."
If it were someone from my team, they wouldn't dare; if it were someone from another team, my people would help me.
Chen Xihua was speechless: "Second sister, you should tone it down a bit!"
"Yes, I know." Chen Jinhua was tactful, and she didn't say everything. She just mentioned that her fifth son was very capable.
Alright, Chen Xihua stopped paying attention to her second sister.
She wants to buy an off-road vehicle with high ground clearance, good performance, and convenient for long-distance driving.
Because she couldn't find a suitable person to take over and manage Jinghua Tourism Company.
Chen Xihua finally decided that she would take over the project herself and create a tourist hotspot, Jinghua Manor, according to her own preferences.
Driving an off-road vehicle is the most convenient option, especially in Qingshan County, Huanshan City, where Lesong Mountain and Lehu Lake are located in remote areas.
Moreover, at that time, highways were not yet open all over the country.
Furthermore, since she will be traveling between Beijing, Hunan Province, Anhui Province, Hunan Province, and Shanghai, she will need to buy a durable car.
When she went to buy a car that day and swiped her card, she discovered that there was actually 500,000 yuan in the card, while the original 300,000 yuan had remained.
Chen Xihua suddenly remembered the strange look in Manager Huang's eyes when he returned the card to her at the Fengting Club.
So that's why, it must have been Lu Xiaoqi who made the decision to waive the fee.
Chen Xihua was basically certain that Liu's cousins, Jiang Sisi and the others, wouldn't cause her any trouble, at least not in the near future.
That's good. During this time, Second Sister and the others are waiting for Wang Xiaoling to make her move, and Chen Xihua is temporarily unable to focus on dealing with Jiang Sisi and the others.
Although she had basically guessed that Wang Xiaoling wanted to poison the Chen family's pastry shop, and had found an opportunity to administer the poison at any time, she had not yet taken action.
This inevitably made Chen Xihua think: Wang Xiaoling was probably waiting for a notification from the person behind her.
That means there is a time requirement.
What exactly does the mastermind behind Black Hawk Down want to do by creating a major event at a specific time?
Second Sister's mission is to capture that person and destroy the entire Black Hawk Gang.
People have already been assigned to keep an eye on Wang Xiaoling, and they will be caught red-handed if she tries to drug him.
Chen Xihua always felt that this was not enough. It was necessary to catch them on the spot and stop them, but then what?
She was almost certain that Wang Xiaoling was unaware of the true purpose of the person behind the scenes.
Therefore, it can prevent one disaster from happening.
However, the person behind the scenes seems to be planning to create a major accident or trouble in order to complete a certain plan.
If that person sees that the matter is not completed, will there be another action, or will the original plan be changed?
If we only try to stop it, things might only be half done, or there might be bigger problems waiting to happen.
Instead, we should go along with that person's plan, let Wang Xiaoling complete the task, and see what that person wants to do.
Of course, we can't actually let her drug him; we have to create a false impression.
We need to make sure that the outside world knows about the major food poisoning incident in Gaoyang County, and that all major news media outlets report on it.
The person behind the scenes will likely proceed with the next step of the plan only after seeing the news.
Thinking of this, Chen Xihua immediately had a few ideas.
Just around this time, the crew of Director An's TV series "The General Returns" was filming in Pingtang County, Jiang City.
The large mansions of the landlords there, as well as the former residence of a high-ranking official, have a very impressive background.
The day before yesterday, Chen Baohua, who was teaching at Jiangshi Middle School, called to say that recently, many people in Pingtang County, and even Jiangshi, wanted to be extras to have some fun.
Chen Xiaoliu, that kid, wanted to go and see what was going on when he didn't have classes on the weekend, but she scolded him and he never mentioned it again.
The word "extras" instantly sparked a bold plan in Chen Xihua's mind.
I wonder if my second sister's superiors will agree.
She could arrange for Director An's film crew to shoot on location in Gaoyang County for a period of time.
On the day Wang Xiaoling was about to take action, all the pastries at Chen's pastry shop would be bought up by his film crew.
Director An could design a scene where he tells the extras that they are filming a scenario where civilians are poisoned.
To the outside world, they would arrange for their own people to act as reporters and publish the poisoning scene as real news.
Prior to this, cooperation from various departments was required, especially ensuring that Gaoyang County Hospital was prepared. Several images were taken showing poisoned individuals being rushed to the hospital.
At that time, news mainly came from newspapers. Even if it appeared on television news, there wouldn't be much footage of it being filmed.
Unlike in ten years or so, when everyone has a mobile phone, if something happens across the country, witnesses can see it, record videos, and send them out, making it easy to verify the truth.
Having thought of it, Chen Xihua called her second sister that afternoon to tell her.
As for whether or not to follow her plan, that's up to the second sister's superior to decide.
