According to the intelligence obtained from the Shan family, the scope and extent of this matter are beyond the control of Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli.
She's not the savior of the world, nor does she hold such a high position or power that she can handle everything perfectly.
Only relevant departments and powerful figures even more capable than Shan Shengshuo could stand up to the Shan family and the mastermind behind the killing of Huang Zhiyuan and his group.
Jiang Ci smiled, but did not say who she was looking for.
She tiptoed and kissed Zhou Mingli on the eyes.
Zhou Mingli was slightly taken aback, then understood her intention. He chuckled softly, tightened his grip on her waist, and returned her a tender and lingering kiss.
Even if Jiang Ci didn't say it, Zhou Mingli understood what she wanted to say.
The Shan family is still keeping an eye on them, and from any perspective, now is not the time to talk about this.
Because Shan Shengshuo only vaguely revealed his intention to invite Jiang Ci, but has not yet taken any action.
Only by gaining the complete trust of the Shan family and removing the people watching Jiang Ci from her vicinity can Jiang Ci have the opportunity to mention this matter to a higher-level superior.
Jiang Ci was a little breathless from the kiss and patted his shoulder.
Zhou Mingli loosened his grip slightly, and Jiang Ci said, "Don't tell Zhe Yue."
If that kid knew that the person who killed his father was about to be exposed, he definitely wouldn't sit still.
Zhou Mingli bit her lower lip with his teeth, then pecked Jiang Ci's cheek, and patted her back. "I know."
The two lingered in the master bedroom for a while, and then, realizing it was getting late, Zhou Mingli let go of her and went out to prepare dinner.
If this continues, I'm afraid all three children in the family will turn on the roof and complain about going hungry.
...
Early in the morning, Jiang Ci dropped her two children off at school and rode her bicycle with the rest of the group to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
After the routine meeting, Jiang Ci sat at her desk and continued working.
Now that the channels for exporting tea are relatively stable, Jiangci is relatively relaxed, but Director Chai is unwilling to see Jiangci become idle.
Young people should be exploring and making their way in the world; they can't afford to be so idle!
So he added more work to Jiang Ci's workload, mainly accompanying leaders to meetings. In April 1977, a senior leader who had not yet been reinstated wrote a letter to the top leader, which garnered the support of many founding fathers.
In May alone, numerous meetings were held to discuss the reinstatement of the high-ranking leader.
Their Ministry of Foreign Affairs had also held a meeting about this matter. When Jiang Ci had dinner with the minister and deputy minister, the minister casually asked her for her opinion on the matter.
view……
That leader was the one who was going to announce the resumption of the college entrance examination in August, and he was also a big figure who promoted reform and opening up. Jiang Ci felt that he was not qualified to comment on such a great man.
She unconditionally and firmly agreed to the leader's reinstatement.
So the minister led his staff to a meeting, and translated the key information that could be made public at the meeting, sending it to the embassies of various countries for unified announcement.
Jiang Ci naturally followed suit.
Editing manuscripts became Jiang Ci's task, and she was so busy writing that her pen was practically sparking every day.
Compared to Jiang Ci and her capable assistant Liu Ke's busy schedules, Shan Lian seemed to have plenty of time to manage her work.
She even had time to think about other things, her face was gloomy, and she looked like she had something on her mind.
Jiang Ci didn't have much energy to look at Shan Lian's expression. It wasn't until they went to the cafeteria for lunch, and Shan Lian still looked deep in thought, that Jiang Ci finally had a chance to ask, "What's wrong?"
Shan Lian had been holding it in all morning, and when Jiang Ci asked her, she finally had an outlet for her frustration. She immediately said, "Jiang Ci, tell me, is it really possible for someone to disregard their parents and elders for love?"
Liu Ke coughed several times, "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense about love!"
The social atmosphere hadn't completely changed in the past few years, so people didn't dare to talk about love and affection!
Dan Lian pouted, "But this actually happened right next to me!"
The chef served Jiang Ci rice; today's lunch was stir-fried zucchini with tomatoes and shredded potatoes with vinegar, along with rice.
After the three of them found seats, Jiang Ci said to Shan Lian, "Explain in detail."
Dan Lian perked up and immediately began to chatter on, “Here’s what happened: my cousin has fallen in love with a woman and insists on marrying her. My grandfather… he values the character of the woman’s parents. My cousin couldn’t describe what the woman’s parents were like, and his answers were hesitant and stammering, so my grandfather wasn’t very satisfied.”
“My cousin insisted on marrying that woman, which made my uncle, aunt, and grandfather very angry. They even argued about it and threatened to sever their parent-child relationship with my cousin if he married her!”
"But my cousin still insisted on marrying that woman."
Dan Lian looked distressed. "Jiang Ci, tell me, does love really have such great magic? It's enough to make my cousin willing to sever ties with his family just to marry her."
Jiang Ci: "..."
So this is how the relationship between Du and Liu Yinyin has evolved into this situation?
She looked at Shan Lian, hesitant to speak.
Shan Lian interpreted Jiang Ci's hesitation as a reflection of her own confusion.
Shan Lian scratched her head and muttered, "My cousin is like that, and my uncle said my mother is too!"
"Huh?" Jiang Ci's heart stirred slightly. Was Shan Lian going to talk about the relationship between her mother and Guo Zhen?
Jiang Ci pricked up her ears and heard Shan Lian casually recount her story, "As you all know, my mother gave birth to me without being married. She and my father were in love, but at that time my father was just an unknown nobody, working for my maternal grandfather and managing some small matters in Liulichang. My maternal grandfather wanted my mother to marry my godfather, but my mother was not happy about it."
"My uncle said that my mom even threw a big tantrum at my grandpa in order to be with my dad!"
Sixteen years ago, back in the 1960s, the probability of this happening... was actually quite high.
"But why did your grandfather eventually acknowledge your father?" Liu Ke, sitting to the side, asked curiously.
Shan Lian chuckled, "Because my dad is awesome."
"He's very capable."
Liu Ke thought about it and realized that someone who could hold real power in their thirties was indeed very impressive.
Jiang Ci paused for a moment, then said, "But your parents still didn't get married in the end."
A hint of melancholy appeared in Shan Lian's eyes. "My uncle said that during the time my parents were discussing their marriage, my father was very busy, and when my mother gave birth to me..."
Jiang Ci never expected that Shan Lian's mother had died while giving birth to her.
The claim that Shan Zixin died of illness, as circulated by the Shan family, is clearly false.
