The next day, Ruan Qiqi got up early, cooked two bowls of rice noodles, fried a few glutinous rice cakes, sprinkled them with soybean powder and brown sugar. They were sweet, sticky, fragrant and super delicious.

Add a few pickled peppers from the jar as a side dish, and you have a very happy breakfast. Fried glutinous rice cakes are delicious. Lu Ye is going to work, while Ruan Qiqi is going to collect debts from Lu Yuanchao's friends.

She showed the list to Lu Ye, and he knew them all.

"When Wang Guohui got married, it was Sun Qiangjun who took advantage of the power outage to bully the bride. It was Zhang Qinghua who put a snake on the bed to scare Sun Qiangjun in the bridal chamber, which caused Sun Qiangjun to be in poor condition now. Zhang Qinghua's sister was peeped at by a bully several times while taking a bath. The bully was his good brother Liu Ziqiang..."

Lu Ye revealed the negative information about the people on the list one by one. None of them were crimes punishable by death, but they were enough to make people hate them to death, and this was just enough to control them.

He also wrote down the units and addresses of these people.

Ruan Qiqi wrote it all down, and she didn't ask Lu Ye why he knew so much, just like she wasn't going to tell Lu Ye about her plan to join Pei Yuan's department.

Pei Yuan said that everyone in the department had to sign a confidentiality agreement, and not even their relatives were allowed to tell anyone. Moreover, everyone in the department had jobs outside and would only appear when on a mission.

After breakfast, when Lu Ye went to work, Ruan Qiqi tidied up the house before going out.

When she walked to the second floor, she saw Captain Xu's youngest son playing alone in the corridor. When he saw her, the boy lowered his head timidly and dared not say a word.

Last night, he went to his father crying and complaining, wanting his father to teach his stepmother a lesson, but his father beat him instead. He beat him harder than his stepmother did. His butt is now swollen.

He never talked about bad women again.

Ruan Qiqi glanced at him indifferently and went downstairs.

The people on Lu Yuanchao's list were basically children of wealthy families, but they were the weakest among them because none of them were in the army.

Children from the compound will basically be arranged to go to the army for training after they grow up. Only those with poor physical fitness or lack of ambition will be arranged to work in the unit.

Although the Lu Jiefang brothers were not ambitious, they had good physical fitness and met all the military assessment standards. In addition, Lin Manyun wanted her son to achieve success, so she stayed in the army.

The first person Ruan Qiqi looked for was Sun Qiangjun. This guy was in the same unit as Mo Congrong and had a lucrative job in the purchasing department. He was well-fed and it was obvious at first glance that he had taken a lot of kickbacks.

"Are you Lu Ye Tangke?"

Sun Qiangjun recognized Ruan Qiqi at a glance and looked a little surprised.

Lu Ye is the devil in the compound, no one dares to play with him, so he doesn't understand why Ruan Qiqi wants to see him?

"I am still Lu Yuanchao's sister-in-law. You should pay back the 68 yuan you owe Lu Yuanchao."

Ruan Qiqi was very polite. She used courtesy before force. She had read books on military strategy.

Sun Qiangjun's face suddenly changed, and he denied it flatly: "Don't talk nonsense, when did I borrow money from Lu Yuanchao? It never happened!"

But he was thinking, since there was no IOU, it would be fine as long as he refused to admit it.

Ruan Qiqi smiled faintly and said softly, "There was a power outage on the day Wang Guohui got married. Someone took advantage of the darkness to molest the bride for a few minutes. Wang Guohui still remembers this grudge. How about I go find him and talk to him about it now?"

Sun Qiangjun was no longer calm and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Wang Guohui was a ruthless man. If he really knew, he would be half dead if not dead.

Damn it, it was pitch dark that day and even the bride didn’t know who she was, so how did Lu Yetangke know?

Ruan Qiqi saw through his thoughts and asked, "Do you think I don't have evidence?"

"No no no...I'll go get the money!"

Sun Qiangjun didn't dare to gamble. It was not worth putting himself in danger for 68 yuan.

Just think of it as spending money to ward off disaster!

"I have borrowed it for such a long time. If I deposit it in the bank, I will get a lot of interest. Besides, my family is helping North Korea defend the country at the border. As his good brother, why don't you show your appreciation?"

Ruan Qiqi looked at him with a smile. It was no big deal for her to extort some money from a scumbag who even took advantage of the bride, right?

"Thanks for your hard work in aiding North Korea. I must express my gratitude."

Sun Qiangjun swallowed his anger and went to get the money. He didn't have enough money on him, so he borrowed some from his colleagues and finally got together a hundred yuan.

After Ruan Qiqi got the money, she comforted him: "Actually, I have no evidence."

After saying that, she turned around and left, her back disappearing into the distance.

Sun Qiangjun’s back teeth were almost broken by biting his teeth. Damn it, he lost a hundred dollars!

Ruan Qiqi followed the same method and used the black material that Lu Ye had mentioned to threaten and blackmail. It only took her half a day to successfully get back the debt, and even got a lot more.

Originally the outstanding balance was only 356.9 yuan, but she got back 580 yuan.

She went directly to the post office to take the 580 yuan and added a little more money to make up 643.4 yuan, and sent it to Lu Jiefang. The handling fee was 6.43 yuan, which Ruan Qiqi also paid in advance, and she would make up for it later from Xu Lina. She also wrote a letter as a receipt for the remittance.

"The money has been returned. Not a cent less has been sent. Although your mother abused Lu Ye and wanted to kill him, you are brothers with the same blood after all. I can't bear to deduct half of it. Don't spend the money recklessly. Aunt Lin's improper thinking has brought you a very bad influence. I hope that the difficult border conditions can wear away your pampered nature, improve your thinking, and make you keep the words of defending the country firmly in your hearts and never forget them!

In addition, Aunt Lin's performance in the cadre school is very poor. She is criticized every day for being lazy. She is really holding you back. I have criticized her many times, hoping that she can really consider you and stop being lazy and holding you back. But she wouldn't listen and still does her own thing. So, you have to be self-reliant on the border. After all, our father is in an extraordinary period now, and your mother likes to hold you back, so you can only rely on yourselves.

come on!

effort!

Written by your sister-in-law Ruan Qiqi, who truly cares about you, on May 23, 1971.

Ruan Qiqi finished writing the letter in a flamboyant manner at the post office, checked it, sealed it with glue, put a stamp on it, put it in the mailbox, and rode home.

On the way, she found a secluded corner, took out a slaughtered duck from the space, and prepared to go home to make blood-caked duck. There was ready-made blood-cake in the supermarket in the space. She could fry it when eating and stir-fry it with the duck. It tasted very good.

The blood cake is also delicious when sliced ​​and fried until soft, and then seasoned with some seasoning. Ruan Qiqi likes to eat it.

The family building downstairs was still very lively, and everyone greeted Ruan Qiqi.

Ruan Qiqi smiled and responded. She parked the car and prepared to go upstairs. She saw Wang Shuhua making pickled ginger at the door of her house. It looked like ginger. It was the first time she saw pickled ginger, so she walked over curiously and asked.

“Can this ginger be pickled?”

Wang Shuhua was mixing ginger slices and chili peppers. She looked up and said with a smile, "This is young ginger. My hometown likes to pickle it. It tastes better than pickled radish. Do you want some?"

"Can we eat it now?"

Ruan Qiqi swallowed her saliva; she wanted to taste it.

"This hasn't been marinated yet. I have already marinated it. Wait a minute!"

Wang Shuhua smiled and got up and went back to the house, picked up a large bowl from the pickled jar, and came out with it.

"Put it in a bottle and it will last for a long time. If you like it, I'll give it to you when this jar is ready!"

The pickled ginger looked so tempting that Ruan Qiqi couldn't help but take a piece and eat it. It was sour, spicy, and crispy, and very refreshing. Pickled ginger "It's delicious. Where did you buy this young ginger? I'll go buy some. Can you pickle a jar for me?"

Ruan Qiqi didn't want to take advantage. Although Wang Shuhua had officially joined the army, her family was still in financial difficulty and they had to be very frugal in their daily life.

"I grew these young gingers. They're free. I'll make you a jar later."

Wang Shuhua refused. She opened a piece of land on the hillside behind the staff housing complex. She was basically self-sufficient in vegetables and could dry the leftovers, saving a lot of money.

"OK."

Ruan Qiqi didn't hesitate and went home with a big bowl of pickled ginger, eating as she walked. By the time she got home, one third of the bowl was gone.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard a voice from downstairs: "Sister Ruan, your phone is on!"

“Here it comes!”

Ruan Qiqi put down the bowl and ran downstairs to answer the phone. It was Ruan Xiaoxue calling.

"Second sister, let me tell you something."

Ruan Xiaoxue was a little emotional. "Old man Ruan poisoned Zhu Sanmei's family to death. He also took the medicine and died. It happened yesterday."

She explained what had happened in detail. Yesterday, Old Man Ruan stewed a chicken and sent it to Ruan Guiming's family on the farm. The family did not have enough to eat on the farm and had to do heavy physical work. They were so greedy when they saw the chicken soup that they ate it up in ravenous mouths. Old Man Ruan also ate with them.

As a result, the whole family was poisoned to death. Old man Ruan added a lot of Aconitum to the chicken soup, and it hardened on the way to the clinic. Aconitum is highly poisonous. Ruan Xiaoxue said that the team leader took charge of the funeral. He had just brought the body back and kept it in the village for one day, and would send it to the mountain tomorrow.

"Don't worry about this matter. The relationship has been severed. You and your elder sister shouldn't fight over Ruan Guiming's house. Second uncle will definitely hold a meeting to discuss it. Just say you want to donate it to the brigade. You don't need to say anything else." Ruan Qiqi warned.

"Got it, second sister. I sent you a bag of dried bamboo shoots. My eldest sister and I dried them. You and your brother-in-law can stew them with meat."

Ruan Xiaoxue smiled and said that she came to the town specifically to mail the dried bamboo shoots and to make a phone call at the same time.
