The cement was supposed to arrive the day after tomorrow, but it’s been almost a week and there’s still no sign of it.
Zhao Weimin was patient at the beginning, but later he completely lost his patience and felt that Su Meimei was just fooling him.
Although Su Meimei explained that it was because of the continuous rain and they might have been delayed on the road, Zhao Weimin didn't listen at all.
She was given a deadline: if she didn't see Cement within three days, she would be asked to divorce Zhao Huaguang.
Zhao Huaguang was naturally very happy, as Su Meimei had made him lose face.
The secret that had been hidden for so long was treated as a delicacy by the whole town, and even a three-year-old child called him a rotten butt when he saw him.
He had already remembered this tone from Su Meimei.
If his father hadn't protected Su Meimei, he would have kicked Su Meimei out long ago.
Su Meimei's family also started to urge her to pay back the money. She had said that she could make a profit immediately after selling the cement, so they helped her borrow the money.
Now everyone in the village comes to ask for money, and they can only turn to Su Meimei.
Su Meimei was so anxious that her hair was falling out in clumps.
I've really reached a dead end, but there's nothing I can do.
It rained for a long time and the streets were misty everywhere.
She stood at the intersection early in the morning with an umbrella, looking out, hoping that the truck carrying cement would suddenly appear.
But we waited until noon and didn't see any cement truck or even a minibus.
I heard from passers-by that a section of the mountain road leading back to the town was damaged by rain, and the minibus was stopped outside and had to wait until the road was repaired before it could enter.
Crack, another loud thunder.
Su Meimei finally remembered what the important thing she had forgotten was.
At this time in my previous life, a major event happened in the town.
Due to heavy rain for several days, the old brick factory collapsed.
Several people died, one of them a prominent figure.
Zhao Weimin, who was not her father-in-law in her previous life, was almost taken over, but after some efforts, he managed to keep his position as the mayor.
I don’t know if it was because this incident was too much of a blow, but not long after that, he resigned and followed Zhao Huaguang to Gangcheng.
Thinking of those who were about to die, she had no intention of helping them at all.
We are all going to die anyway, so what does it matter if we die earlier or later?
She had more important things to do and was about to go to Linjia Bay to find Lin Ye.
Halfway through, I ran into Chen Geng. He was standing in the pouring rain and greeted the people traveling with him.
"Comrade Lin Ye was stranded on the other side of the mountain road by the rain, so he asked someone to send something to me so I could deliver it to his wife."
"They said it's just right for tonight's commendation ceremony. You guys go back first and don't wait for me. I still have to watch the commendation ceremony!"
Chen Geng happened to be passing by that section before the landslide. When he heard that the minibus behind him was blocked, he kindly helped dig a section of the road.
He happened to catch a glimpse of the woods on the mountain road, as his legs were not convenient.
When I met him, I asked him to take the things over first and said I would be there soon.
When Su Meimei heard the familiar name, she immediately stepped forward to try to get close to him.
"Uncle, are you also going to look for my sister Su Man? It just so happens that we're traveling together. My name is Su Meimei, the mayor's daughter-in-law, and Su Man's cousin."
"Oh, my family has such an outstanding comrade like her, and I am so proud of her!"
"I was the one who brought her and her man together!"
Chen Geng listened to Su Meimei talking about Su Man in such a familiar way that he didn't doubt their relationship at all.
Just as he was about to reach the steel factory gate, Chen Geng was stopped by someone halfway.
"Master, there's a problem with a mold in the workshop, and the director wants you to go take a look..."
Chen Geng looked at the things in his hand with an embarrassed look on his face: "I'll go later..."
Su Meimei stepped forward and snatched the thing from his hand without saying a word.
"We can't delay the workshop. I also want to go to my sister's commendation meeting. I'll take her there!"
The other side was urging him to do it urgently, so Chen Geng thought about it for a moment and could only nod.
"Okay, thank you for your help then."
Su Meimei nodded: "You're welcome, it's my duty."
She watched Chen Geng go away until his figure could no longer be seen.
Then she slowly opened the package and looked at the bright red dress inside. Her eyes also turned red.
Lin Ye is such a cold-hearted person, but he actually remembered to buy such beautiful clothes for Su Man when he went out.
All the blessings that she didn't enjoy in her previous life were enjoyed by Su Man.
She held on to her red skirt tightly, which was soaked by the rain and deformed under her hands.
Why? Why?
The sound of rain was pattering, and suddenly someone's voice calling Su Man came from a distance.
"Doctor Su, it's raining so hard, why don't you go in and wait?"
Su Man smiled and shook her head, standing at the door holding an umbrella, looking into the distance with anticipation.
"No, my husband said he would come today, so I'll wait here. I'm afraid he'll get wet in the rain."
Shao Sanchun couldn't help but joke when he heard this.
"Oh my, this couple is so sweet and sweet, we married people are so envious."
Shao Sanchun's husband listened on the side and smiled innocently.
"Wife, shall we also mix the oil?"
Shao Sanchun gave him an unpleasant look and snorted.
"Your body is now just oil, what else is there to stir up?"
Liu Nier and Nong Shan also brought their families to the factory gate, both wearing new clothes, and obviously couldn't wait to attend the commendation meeting.
Just as they were about to enter, a man suddenly rushed over and pointed to the north, panting.
"Comrade, it's bad. There's a collapse at the old brick factory. Hurry, hurry and save people..."
When they heard this, they immediately stopped and looked at Su Man.
