Chapter 225 Ma Pozi's Suspicion



"Did you buy it? Or did your godfather find a way for you?" Ningxia thought about how he said he didn't buy it yesterday, but it was sent back today.

"Godfather asked the contact here to send it to me. I asked him to send less, but he would definitely send more if he didn't know the truth."

Ren Jingxiao couldn't tell him about Ningxia's pocket either. Xia Xia said that if he told anyone, she might disappear.

Even if you beat him to death, he would never tell anyone.

"Then I have to make my godfather's clothes and give them to him as soon as possible."

Ningxia knew that his godfather loved Ren Jingxiao and he didn't ask for anything in return, but they also wanted to do something for him.

After Ren Jingxiao finished talking to Ningxia, he went to clean the house. He planned to put the things in that room closer to the kitchen, so he moved them to another room.

Just as he finished cleaning up, there was a knock on the door. Ren Jingxiao put down his things and went to open the door.

"Is this Comrade Ren Jingxiao's home?" A man who looked about the same age as Fifth Master was standing outside the door.

This was the first time Ren Jingxiao saw someone as tall as him.

"Uncle Hu?" Although Ren Jingxiao's tone was questioning, he was sure in his heart that he was the Uncle Hu his godfather was talking about.

"Hey, it's me." Uncle Hu looked at him with a smile. He knew that the Fifth Master had adopted a godson.

He had wanted to meet the person for a long time, but never had the chance. This time, he heard from Fifth Master that the person had moved to the county town.

In the morning, Uncle Wu asked him to prepare some coal briquettes and send someone to deliver them, saying that he couldn't let his daughter-in-law get cold because she was pregnant with his little grandson!

Uncle Hu didn't need to send anyone over, he delivered it himself. He was even more satisfied with his appearance. He thought the boy was good-looking and to his liking.

"Uncle Hu, please come in and sit down." Ren Jingxiao welcomed him in, and Ningxia also consciously prepared tea.

"Uncle Hu, have some water." Ningxia smiled obediently. She has always been very docile in front of her elders.

"Okay, okay. I came here in a hurry. I heard from Master Wu that you were pregnant, so I prepared a pair of longevity locks for you."

Uncle Hu took out a pair of locks and handed them to Ningxia. Ningxia looked at Ren Jingxiao and finally accepted them.

She knew that Uncle Hu was doing this for Fifth Master's sake, and that Fifth Master and he must have a very good relationship.

What Ningxia didn’t know was that this pair of longevity locks looked ordinary, but had been enshrined in the temple.

However, the temple was demolished due to war, but the lock remained.

Uncle Hu’s grandfather used to be a temple keeper, and later this pair of locks became a family heirloom.

He didn't even give his own grandson because Fifth Master had saved his life.

If he hadn't saved his life during the war, he wouldn't have had these descendants.

Not to mention the good days they have now, so he is willing to give this to Fifth Master's grandson.

Ningxia didn't know the origin of this lock, she just felt that it was very comfortable to look at.

It wasn't until this old object saved her child's life that she gained a new understanding of everything that could not be explained.

When Ren Jingxiao saw the coal briquettes prepared for him by Uncle Hu, he was stunned. He could use them for a year without any problem.

"Uncle Hu, this is too much." Ren Jingxiao knew that it was too cold here in the winter, and things like coal briquettes and charcoal were in short supply in winter.

This price is a good price to sell. He really doesn’t need so much. He still has so much firewood!

"It's not much. We need to keep the kang warm in winter so you don't get cold. That's what Uncle Hu does. How can I let you go short of it?"

In addition to distributing some of the coal briquettes to several brothers, the rest was kept for their own family and all of it was transported here.

Ren Jingxiao didn't say anything more. He knew that if he didn't accept it, Uncle Hu would feel even more uncomfortable. He and several brothers who came to deliver the goods started to carry the coal briquettes together.

"Oh my god, so many coal briquettes? Where did you buy them? How much do they cost?"

Mrs. Ma had just returned from her youngest son's house when she saw the coal briquettes placed at the door.

She had never seen so many coal briquettes before. She had to grab the coal briquettes tickets given by her eldest son's family every month to get a few.

She could just get by every month, and by the time winter came, everything was fine at her eldest son's house.

Workers have benefits and can get more tickets. Plus, there are only two of them in his family, so life is not difficult.

But it’s not the same for her youngest son’s family! Every year they wear thick clothes, and the two children even get frostbite. She feels distressed when she sees them.

"If it falls from the sky, you can't buy it no matter how much money you have." Ren Jingxiao looked at her greedy face and glared at her.

Mrs. Ma looked at him with an unfriendly look, and the men standing at the door all had fierce expressions on their faces.

She felt that this group of people were not good people. Could it be that the family next door was doing some shameful business?

Who can afford to buy so many coal briquettes? There are always long queues at the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores every month.

"Uncle Hu, thank you for your help. I'll go and reconcile the accounts with Manager Wu later. Don't worry about our transportation team delivering the goods. These goods will be delivered in two days."

Seeing that Mrs. Ma was staring at him, Ren Jingxiao made up an excuse and Uncle Hu nodded in agreement.

When Mrs. Ma heard this, she realized that this man was from the Transportation Department, and these coal briquettes were not bought by him!

What's going on? They don't have enough here, so why are they sending it to other places?

But Mrs. Ma only dared to think about it in her heart; she didn't dare to express any opinions.

She knew how powerful this transport team was, which was even more powerful than her eldest son's factory.

No wonder this man was able to buy this house! But with so many coal briquettes, his family must have kept a lot.

She turned around and talked to her eldest son to see if he could buy some as well.

It doesn't matter who she sells it to! She can give some to her youngest son later, and then she won't have to worry about anything this winter.

Ren Jingxiao sent Uncle Hu and his companions away, said hello to Ningxia, and returned to the transport team, where he arrived just in time for work.

Ren Jingxiao was learning to drive in the afternoon. After a while, he saw the director of the loading and unloading team coming over. He called Yang Cheng aside and said something to him.

After the director of the loading and unloading department left, he rushed to several drivers and started fighting with them.

Finally, the directors from both sides came and reprimanded those who had been fighting, and only then did they calm down.

Only then did Ren Jingxiao see the director of their transport team, but he didn't take it seriously. However, the man walked towards him, and he couldn't pretend not to see him.

"Comrade Ren, I was on a business trip some time ago and only knew that a new person had come. That's why I have the chance to meet you today." The director was surprisingly enthusiastic.

Ren Jingxiao probably guessed why, and he became polite when looking at the director.

He won't give anyone any leverage or act condescendingly.

He knew it was because of his godfather and Minister Zheng, but not because of him as a person.

Before he becomes capable enough, he has no right to be arrogant, let alone look down on anyone. He has nothing of his own.
