Chapter 263: New Name "Arsenic"
"You are incapable of arranging a job for your wife, causing her to suffer misery and becoming malnourished. My wife couldn't bear it, so she kindly introduced her to a job. Not only are you not grateful, but you are ungrateful and scolding my wife. Are you even human, Peng Shuangcheng?"
Li Rong didn't give him any face at all and said very unpleasant words.
"Peng Shuangcheng, what's wrong with you? If you're angry, come to me!"
Xiang Ermei rushed out with a kitchen knife in her hand. Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that Xiang Ermei, who was usually good-tempered, would be so scary when she got angry.
"Peng Shuangcheng, I'm telling you clearly today. I'm committed to the farm shift, regardless of whether you agree or not. Aren't you disgusted with me and my daughter? I'll grant your wish. From now on, I'll live on the farm with the children. I won't be a bother to you anymore, and you can live on your own!"
She raised a kitchen knife and yelled at her second sister. In the past, she only thought that family disgrace should not be made public and never told anyone about family matters. Now she has figured it out. Peng Shuangcheng doesn't treat her as a human being. Why should she give face to this man?
Just make a big fuss and make everyone lose face!
"If you want to live, then live. If you don't want to, then break up!"
After saying this to her second sister, she turned and left. When she passed by the stove in the corridor, she couldn't help herself and chopped the kitchen knife hard on the chopping board.
The sharp kitchen knife cut deep into the chopping board, and the knife stood upright on the chopping board, with the handle still shaking slightly.
Everyone gasped and looked at Xiang Ermei with admiration.
I used to think Xiang Ermei was an honest woman, but now it seems that honest people are scary when they get angry!
Luo Xinxin mocked loudly: "You are such a strange person. You despised your sister-in-law when she didn't have a job, and now that she has a job, you are unhappy again. Comrade Peng, are you deliberately looking for trouble? Or maybe you just can't accept that there is no one at home to serve you, the master?"
Everyone gasped again. Xiao Luo was too bold. He had a really poisonous tongue!
"My family's affairs have nothing to do with you. Luo Xinxin, what are you trying to do by fanning the flames and sowing discord?"
Peng Shuangcheng hated Luo Xinxin to death. It was after this woman came that his good days were completely ruined.
"I introduced a job to my sister-in-law, how can that be considered sowing discord? It's clear that you have a serious problem with your thinking. You're a male chauvinist, looking down on women and favoring boys over girls. Why are you glaring at me? What did I say wrong?
Do you know what you are doing now? Your moral character is unworthy of your position. Your thinking is greatly weakened. You are not worthy of your current position at all. Comrade Peng, study the quotations carefully and don't bring shame to our military region!
Luo Xinxin started cursing at Peng Shuangcheng, making him swear.
"That's right, Peng Shuangcheng, your thinking has indeed seriously declined. My wife is kindly reminding you, you should be grateful and stop looking so deadpan all day long. You have no heart at all!"
Li Rong did not forget to add another blow. He looked down on Peng Shuangcheng at all. He had some ability, but his thinking was so weak that he was definitely not a good comrade.
The couple sang the same tune, which made Peng Shuangcheng very angry.
Everyone else remained silent and didn't dare to try to persuade them, for fear of being scolded by the couple.
Peng Shuangcheng gritted his teeth, gave them a cold look, and turned back to the house. He would complain to Director Zhang tomorrow and let Director Zhang teach them a lesson!
Luo Xinxin curled her lips and pulled Li Rong back to the house.
The others had no fun to watch, so they all went home.
However, they were even more wary of Luo Xinxin. This girl looked soft and weak, but in fact, she was vicious from head to toe. They would never dare to offend this little Luo again.
Fan Yiku, who had been planning to go on strike, went back to clean the toilet silently after seeing Luo Xinxin's toughness. At this moment, she was deeply regretful.
If she had known that Luo Xinxin was such a powerful person, why would she have stepped forward that day?
After one night, Luo Xinxin's reputation reached a new level, and everyone even gave her a nickname, "Arsenic".
Luo Xinxin got nothing from this. She was sleeping in. The spring breeze had passed through Yumen Pass several times last night. She was very tired and was still lying in bed at noon.
Xiang Ermei packed her luggage early in the morning, took her little daughter, and drove a horse-drawn carriage to work on the farm.
Sisters Peng Chunlan and Peng Lianqiao still had school to go to, so they told their second sister that they would transfer to the farm after this semester.
She gave the two children money and asked them to eat in the cafeteria.
As for Peng Shuangcheng, she didn't bother to care about him. A man that old would definitely not starve to death.
When Peng Shuangcheng woke up in the morning, he saw an empty kitchen. Xiang Ermei had left resolutely without even making breakfast for him. He suppressed his anger, went to the cafeteria to eat breakfast, and then went to complain to Director Zhang.
"It's a good thing your wife can go to work. The military district has a tight job market, and we haven't been able to find a job for your wife. Comrade Luo Xinxin is able to help the military district solve its problems. He's a really good comrade!"
After listening to this, Director Zhang praised Luo Xinxin highly, not caring at all about Peng Shuangcheng's ugly expression.
During this period, he talked to Peng Shuangcheng every few days, but the effect was minimal. Peng Shuangcheng's ignorant and backward ideas were deeply rooted, and he simply would not listen to him.
Director Zhang has given up and decided to truthfully write down this guy's ideological problems in the ideological summary report to Peng Shuangcheng before he resigns as director.
"Director, Xiang Ermei went to work on the farm and left the family behind!" Peng Shuangcheng said anxiously.
"Don't you still have you at home? How can you say you left me behind?" Director Zhang corrected.
"She said she won't come back to live with me anymore and wants to separate from me. It was Luo Xinxin who instigated this. She wouldn't have dared to do this before." Peng Shuangcheng said angrily.
Director Zhang frowned and accused, "Stop picking on others and reflect on your own problems first. Why did your wife want to separate from you? Isn't it because you've gone too far over the years and chilled her heart? What does this have to do with Comrade Luo Xinxin?"
Was it Luo Xinxin who made you have an affair with a woman outside five years ago? Was it Luo Xinxin who made you give me only 20 yuan for living expenses? Was it Luo Xinxin who made you so cold-hearted towards your wife and daughter? Peng Shuangcheng, I have talked to you so many times and said everything I should say. Think about it carefully!
"I've already given her 80 yuan for living expenses. Why is Xiang Ermei still making trouble with me? She doesn't cook, doesn't wash clothes, and now she doesn't even come home."
Peng Shuangcheng still refused to accept it and even felt wronged.
If Xiang Ermei dared to do this in her hometown, she would definitely be scolded to death by the villagers.
"Once your heart has grown cold, it takes longer to warm it up. Besides, there's a cafeteria for meals and you can wash your clothes yourself, so why does it have to be done by a woman? Well, I have other things to do. You should reflect on yourself!"
Director Zhang interrupted impatiently. He felt annoyed when he heard such bullshit. This guy didn't listen to a single word he had said these days, so he was too lazy to say anything more.
Even if he is the director, he can give up on the stubborn people who are difficult to educate.
What's more, he will no longer be the director soon. Whoever wants to be the director can do it. I won't serve him anyway!
After Xiang Ermei moved to the farm, the Peng family next door became deserted. After school, Peng Chunlan and her sister went straight to the cafeteria to eat, and then went back to their rooms to do homework. They almost never saw Peng Shuangcheng.
Peng Shuangcheng also ate in the cafeteria, but he couldn't stand it after a few days. The dishes in the cafeteria were always the same three, and the staple food was steamed buns. He was from the south and loved rice.
Moreover, the food in the cafeteria was not as delicious as the food cooked by his second sister. Sometimes he really couldn't eat it, so he would take some steamed buns home and eat them with kimchi and fermented tofu.
The moldy tofu and pickles left for his second sister were visibly reduced. Peng Shuangcheng didn't dare to eat too much and had to save them at every meal.
While Peng Shuangcheng next door was having a hard time, Luo Xinxin and Li Rong were getting along very well. She would go to the farm every few days to instruct her second sister on the key points of growing grapes. She would stay on the farm for two or three days and then go back to the military region to rest for a few days.
Director Minefield also turned a blind eye to it. The vineyard was growing so well that he couldn't find any thorns at all.
As for the experts sent by the province, there has been no news so far. Because of Gong Zhimin's accident, those people from the Ministry of Agriculture are still investigating, including Deputy Director Ma. Everyone is in a panic and has long forgotten about the vineyard.
Xiang Ermei and her youngest daughter lived very well on the farm. She opened a vegetable plot and grew her own vegetables. She also brought the chickens raised in the family building and cooked the eggs. She asked Luo Xinxin to help bring them back for her two daughters to eat.
Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was June. I had basically learned the grape planting techniques from my second sister. She was actually very smart. If she had had the conditions to learn since childhood, her achievements would definitely not be worse than Peng Shuangcheng.
"The fruit will be in the second half of the year. You must strictly follow the instructions. If the people below don't obey, you should go to the mine director."
Luo Xinxin wrote down all the precautions for fruit bearing in the second half of the year in a notebook and handed it to Xiang Ermei.
She has to go to the island country to travel.
