Chapter 33 Chapter 33 "Do you think she will end up in the countryside? ...
But when he arrived at the factory gate, Cheng Jin became hesitant again.
Before he came, his father had reminded him that he must visit Aunt Xu Yingxia when he arrived, so his father had sent him money and tickets before he came. He had to visit and bring expensive gifts with him to express his gratitude.
What's the result?
It has been seven or eight days, and he has not seen Aunt Xu Yingxia yet.
I felt really ashamed in my heart, thinking back to how stupid and idiotic I was before.
After being lied to by Jiang Nannan, he really thought that the Jiang family was not suitable to meet right away. He did not have any doubts at all from beginning to end. If his mother had not insisted that he must meet the Jiang family, he would have submitted a marriage application to the army by now.
"Young man, who are you looking for?" The gatekeeper looked at the man standing at the door without saying a word. If he was not in a military uniform, he would have thought he was a thief who came to scout the place.
Cheng Jin came back to his senses, was silent for a few seconds, and finally spoke: "Master, I want to find Comrade Xu Yingxia."
Xu Yingxia is definitely the most watched person in the workshop now.
As soon as he started working, many people came to ask Jiang Shuangshuang about his work, what connections he had, what position he was in charge of, and it was really amazing that he was paid such a high salary in one month.
At the same time, someone else came forward to propose marriage.
"Haven't you seen my nephew? He's in charge of driving for the factory director. He can drive cars, tractors, and everything else. He's also very much valued by the factory director. He's a little short, but what does it matter if a man is short? As long as he has the ability, isn't that enough?" Niu Ahhua squeezed next to Xu Yingxia and said with a firm face, "There aren't many people in our factory who can drive. If your daughter marries him, she will have a good life in the future. If it weren't for the fact that we share the same workshop, such a good thing would never have happened to you."
Xu Yingxia pouted, "Come on, didn't you say that my Shuangshuang has nothing to offer except good looks? Why, are you thinking about her now?"
Previously, for the sake of Shuangshuang's marriage, she had also asked other colleagues in the workshop if they had any suitable partners.
If there is, there is. If there is not, there is not. But this Niu Ah Hua belittled Shuang Shuang and praised her nephew for being so good. She was furious when she heard that. "Speaking of driving, do you know what car I took this time? A big jeep! The comrade who drove the car was Shuang Shuang's colleague. He was a tall and handsome young man, but he was not good at driving. He was not like someone who could drive but was so arrogant."
Isn't it just driving?
It’s not like she doesn’t know anyone who can drive.
Shuangshuang's colleague is a head taller than Niu Ahua's nephew. He works in the Public Security Bureau and looks very impressive in his military uniform. He is better than Niu Ahua's nephew in every way.
"Hey, why do you speak so rudely?" Niu Ahua looked unhappy. She felt that Xu Yingxia had changed. She was not as easy to talk to as before and she even bullied people.
It’s true that my children are promising, and I feel more confident myself.
Xu Yingxia snorted and ignored her.
She is not in any hurry for Shuangshuang to get married. She looks good and has a stable job. She doesn't need to set her sights higher, but she has plenty of time to find a suitable partner.
"Xu Yingxia, someone is looking for you outside." A man came to the workshop door. When he saw the man coming, he said, "A man in military uniform, is he a relative of yours? The young man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looks pretty good."
"Military uniform?" A figure appeared in Xu Yingxia's mind. "Could it be Comrade Cheng?"
"Yes, yes, his last name is Cheng." The visitor nodded and asked curiously, "Who is he in your family?"
Xu Yingxia had no time to pay attention to him. She said something to the people around her and ran out in a hurry.
She kept thinking why Comrade Cheng, who sent them back yesterday, came to the factory to look for her? Could it be because of Shuangshuang?
As a result, when I arrived at the door, I didn't see a familiar figure, but a young comrade who looked very reserved. Although he was wearing a military uniform, he was so cramped that he couldn't hold up the clothes.
"Aunt Xu..."
Xu Yingxia looked at him, frowning slightly, "Are you Cheng Jin?"
Cheng Jin was a little surprised, "Do you recognize me?"
"You look so much like your father." Xu Yingxia turned her eyes away, not wanting to see this face.
Strangely enough, she and Cheng Xingbang didn't meet very often, and every time they met, she was very emotional and had no time to look at his face seriously, but she just remembered it.
Just like now, she recognized this as Cheng Xingbang's son at first sight.
She didn't want to get angry, but she felt uncomfortable when she saw Cheng Jin, and her tone instantly turned cold. "What are you doing here?"
"I……"
Xu Yingxia felt uncomfortable when she saw that he was hesitant to speak, so she said directly: "Last time, I wanted to accompany Shuangshuang to meet you, but because of some unexpected things, we didn't meet. I don't know if Shuangshuang mentioned it to you, but there are some things I still want to say again."
Without waiting for anyone's response, she continued, "I have never known how much Old Lady Wang asked your father for. She is Lao Jiang's mother, and I don't want to criticize what she did, but I have something to tell your father. Lao Jiang definitely didn't mean to repay his kindness when he saved him. As his daughter-in-law, I think the same as him. I will never ask for help from you for saving my life."
There was one thing she remembered for a long, long time.
Not long after Lao Jiang passed away, someone congratulated her, saying, "Luckily, you saved a soldier. If your family encounters difficulties in the future, please look for him. He is a life, and he will definitely help you and your son."
Although Lao Jiang has lost his life, he is still celebrating the benefits he will get in the future.
And it's not just outsiders who think so. When Old Man Jiang and Old Lady Wang reached out to Cheng Xingbang, as parents, did they ever think that it was a good thing for their son to exchange his life for another's, and that they could get so many benefits for nothing?
Xu Yingxia didn’t dare to think too deeply. If Lao Jiang knew that his biological parents thought his death was a good thing, how sad would he be?
With a little sob in her throat, she continued, "So don't contact him. Your father's life was saved by Lao Jiang. Let him live well and do good things. This is the greatest reward for Lao Jiang."
"Aunt Xu..."
Xu Yingxia waved at him and drove him away impatiently: "Go back, go back. It doesn't matter if you and Shuangshuang don't work out. I feel sad when I see you."
And she really looked down on Cheng Xingbang's son.
He keeps hesitating and hasn't uttered a complete sentence yet. He talks about a bright future, but it's obvious that he's not up to the task.
Regardless of whether the other party left or not, Xu Yingxia turned around and went back to the factory, holding her head high and not looking back.
Cheng Jin, who was standing there, felt a little helpless.
His hands were kept in his pockets, which contained a thick envelope.
There were two hundred yuan and some bills in it. His father originally wanted him to use them to prepare a generous gift, but now he just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, so he planned to give the money and bills directly.
But what he didn't expect was that not only did the other person not intend to take money from him, but he also wanted to stop having any contact with him in the future...
…
It was unknown whether Cheng Jin left in the end, but the Jiang family was a little worried. Jiang Sisao tried to hold back but couldn't help asking her grandfather, "If Jiang Nannan didn't end up with Cheng Jin, she wouldn't be so angry that she would report us, right? Dad, you have to persuade her. We only have this one job in this family. What if we lose it?"
"Dad, you have to teach that damn girl a lesson. She even dared to teach the elders a lesson!" Brother Jiang was very angry. He felt panic when people were here, but he got angry when people left. He wanted to teach that girl a lesson. "She is simply lawless, she..."
"Shut up!" Old Man Jiang glared at him angrily, "You're hoping she'll report you, right? Can you think before you speak?"
Then he glared at Jiang Qing who was still laughing, "And you, what are you laughing at? I don't understand, if Jiang Nannan really marries a good family, what harm will it do to you?"
Only by marrying well can you support your family.
If she doesn't marry well, her family members will have to support her.
Don’t you understand such a simple truth?
He really thought that his children were all stupid! They were as stupid as Old Lady Wang. However, his granddaughters seemed to have found their way. Each one was more difficult to deal with than the other. He still offended them so much that he didn't know how to deal with his family in the future.
"I'm going to laugh!" Jiang Qing was extremely happy. "It's all in vain. Didn't you see how ridiculous her expression was before? Cheng Jin will definitely not marry her. She can only go to the countryside in the end. As long as she is sent away, what are you afraid of?"
Seeing her smug look, Jiang Shuangshuang was a little puzzled, "Do you think she will end up going to the countryside?"
"Of course!" Jiang Qing was very determined, "Cheng Jin abandoned her, and that cripple couldn't marry her, what else could she do?"
She originally felt that it was unfair to marry a cripple, especially when she knew that Jiang Nannan pushed an unwanted cripple to her for Cheng Jin, she felt like she had eaten gunpowder.
But now I just feel happy. Jiang Nannan has completely lost her way out. She can only be sent to the countryside by force. Life in the countryside is so hard. When she becomes the wife of the richest man in the future, Jiang Nannan may still be working in the countryside. She will marry a rough man and give birth to several peasants. She will have to deal with the fields all her life!
Jiang Shuangshuang frowned.
She really wondered if Jiang Qing was hiding some secret.
After all, what she knew and did sometimes was very strange.
Now I am also doubting whether she has exchanged her intelligence for this secret. "Cheng Jin is gone, but Jiang Nannan still has the leverage over you. She has planned so many things in order not to go to the countryside. Why do you think she would be willing to be sent to the countryside if she is abandoned by a man?"
Jiang Nannan said so much before, and the core was "competition".
She wants to fight for a better future for herself.
For what she believes in, she doesn't care even if the means are not fair. How could such a person allow herself to fall into depravity just because a man abandons her?
Jiang Qing made fun of Jiang Nannan and she was abandoned, but she thought Jiang Qing who was laughing non-stop was even funnier.
Jiang Shuangshuang looked around at the Jiang family and said quietly, "Congratulations, you have successfully kept a devil by your side."
It is obvious that no one in the Jiang family is a match for Jiang Nannan.
The most correct approach is to let Jiang Nannan marry smoothly to another province, rather than watching Jiang Nannan as a joke. She can't marry Cheng Jin and stay in the city, but since she has the means to play everyone around, she naturally has a second, third, and even countless backup means to stay.
Especially since Jiang Nannan still has so much evidence against them.
"No way?!"
"Jiang Qing, what are you making such a fuss about? Jiang Nannan didn't snatch your marriage away. She must hate you to death for making such a fuss."
"..." Jiang Qing pursed her lips, her face turning pale, "No, no..."
I said this but I was panicking inside.
Jiang Nannan has always known that she wants to marry Ma Jian, and would rather find a cripple for a fake marriage than marry him. If, if Jiang Nannan really wants to stop her, what should she do?
The more she thought about it, the more she regretted it. If she had known earlier, she would not have interfered in this matter.
What if Jiang Nannan really wants to interfere with her business?
Let's take a step back and think about it. Even if Jiang Nannan married Cheng Jin, what would happen? With people like his parents, if Jiang Nannan married him by intimidation, her life would definitely not be easy in the future, especially since Cheng Jin was incompetent and loved to show off. He would only hold her back and drag Jiang Nannan into an irreparable situation.
Think about it, all the sufferings in her previous life have fallen on Jiang Nannan, isn't that a bit pleasing?
And now...
"Why are you doing so much trouble? If Jiang Nannan really wants to make trouble, I will definitely not let you off!"
"You are the disaster star. How much trouble have you caused to the family these days? Get out of here. Married people should not stay in their parents' home all the time."
"Dad, this is all Jiang Qing's fault. You must be responsible for any losses that occur to my family!"
"Bah! Did I ask you to steal things or did I ask you to damage the instruments? And you, Jiang Qing, get out of here and go back to your in-laws' house!"
You and he all started blaming each other.
Jiang Shuangshuang was not interested in the hustle and bustle, so she left without bothering to pay attention to them.
She was sure that the Jiang family would be bustling in the future. She was also sure that Jiang Nannan would not really be sent to the countryside. She would definitely have other ways to stay in the city.
Jiang Nannan is really capable. She can plan everything in such a short time. If she hadn't overestimated Cheng Jin's importance to being a soldier, she could really achieve her goal.
It's just that her methods are too cruel, otherwise she would really be interested in making friends with him.
But it is obvious that they are not on the same path.
After finishing the work, Jiang Shuangshuang went straight home.
As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Jiang Xiaozhou digging something in the soil with his butt sticking out. She walked over to take a look, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Where did you dig it from?"
She recognized the densely packed white lumps in the soil. After she defeated Jiang Xiaozhou, the boy came to "present treasures" with a palm full of ant eggs.
This is a real treasure for children.
The ant eggs that were dug up were washed and roasted over a fire. They didn’t taste very good, but for kids who love meat, they were a good snack.
"Fengzi exchanged these with me for half a candy." Jiang Xiaozhou picked out some and placed them on the leaves. "I'm feeding them to the chickens. They love them."
After I finished speaking, I thought of something. I twisted a few grains and asked, "Sister, do you want to try it again? I'll take it and bake it."
"No, I don't like the taste." Jiang Shuangshuang shook her head.
She actually tried it, but she didn't really like it.
There was wild boar, pheasant, rabbit and dried fish in the house, so she didn't need to eat roasted ant eggs.
She asked, "Did you go to the Public Security Bureau's small kitchen today?"
"I went!" Jiang Xiaozhou's eyes lit up. "Master Cao is amazing. He said that if you want to remove the mutton smell of wild boar, you have to marinate it with a lot of seasonings for a day, and the meat will be more tender and fresh."
He looked at his second sister eagerly, "Sister, I've written down all the ingredients. When are you going to buy them?"
Jiang Shuangshuang thought about it and said, "You can go to the kitchen again this afternoon."
"Should I ask Master Cao to teach me how to do it?" Jiang Xiaozhou is becoming more and more interested in cooking. He even hopes to start school later. Working in the kitchen is much more interesting than going to school.
But he didn't dare say it, because if he did, his mother would definitely spank him with a bamboo stick.
"No." Jiang Shuangshuang shook her head and said, "I want you to ask Master Cao if there is any way to deal with it without spending money."
That's a bit cheeky.
But he also told Comrade Jiang Xiaozhou very tactfully that although his second sister already had a job and looked well-dressed, she actually had very little money in her pocket.
Whether you are swimming in the water or running on the mountain, you can always find a way to shop for free.
But it's best not to ask her for money-spending matters like this.
Jiang Xiaozhou nodded, "Okay, I'll go ask in the afternoon! If it doesn't work, I'll ask Master Cao to help me pickle it."
Jiang Shuangshuang raised his eyebrows.
It seems that this boy is more shameless than she thought.
She asked, "When are you going?"
"Let's go after we eat." Jiang Xiaozhou no longer cared about the ant eggs on the ground. He said, "The dishes are already heating up on the stove. We can start eating when mom comes back. Sister, do you want to have a bowl of soup first? I learned how to make a soup today. Boil dried fish in water and then cook other dishes. Then you can have an extra bowl of fish soup!"
Although the soup turned out to be watery, you could still taste the flavor of fish. He scooped two more buckets of water and shared some with his friends in the yard after it was cooked.
Of course it’s not free.
That is conditional!
Whoever wants to drink the fish soup must help him wash the dishes, sweep the floor and dry the clothes.
If he distributed the work assigned to him by his second sister to others, he would have a lot of free time to play, and what he distributed was just the "bath water" for dried fish, so he didn't feel sorry at all.
But I can't tell my second sister about this. It would be bad if she thinks he is being lazy. As a man, he still needs to do some things that save his reputation.
Jiang Shuangshuang shook her head and said, "I won't be home for lunch. Tell Mom when she comes back."
"Sister, are you going to see a movie?" Jiang Xiaozhou looked at her eagerly, wanting to go with her. What if he missed the chance to see a movie again?
"What movie? I have to go to work this afternoon." Jiang Shuangshuang ignored him and went straight into the house to take out a can of food. The can was not considered a free meal as a gift.
After she went out, she walked towards the Public Security Bureau.
As soon as she reached the door, she found Mr. Zhang sitting and taking a nap. She had some mischievous ideas, so she reached out and slammed the can on his desk. With a "pop" sound, Mr. Zhang opened his eyes in surprise, "Mani Mani, who is scaring you... Hey, canned fruit!"
Hengheng, who was originally angry, smiled instantly when he saw the canned food on the table. "Comrade Xiao Jiang has a good understanding and even thought of treating the old comrades to canned food. How was your work today? If someone bullies you, just come and complain. I will let Director Wei help you deal with it."
"You won't help?"
"Hey, do you think I'm still a young man in my thirties or forties? I'm already in my seventies or eighties, with my weak arms and legs, how can I still fight?" Master Zhang has a good self-awareness and will never show off his strength. He continued: "But Master Zhang, my body is not good, but I can call for help. Ten or eight people are no problem. Let's use the majority to bully the minority!"
Jiang Shuangshuang found it funny.
Although he is a retired veteran, he speaks in a childish manner.
However, when Mr. Zhang wanted to pick up the can, she blocked it with her hand.
Master Zhang raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong? Don't regret it!"
Jiang Shuangshuang pushed the can directly in front of him and said, "Please eat it. I just want to ask you something."
Mr. Zhang did not move. "When I heard you say 'you', I knew something was up. Ask me first to see if I can afford this can of food."
"Of course." Jiang Shuangshuang's smile faded a little. "Do you recognize Comrade Cheng who went to the brigade to collect wild boars yesterday?"
