Chapter 19 Is it that I'm still not able to give you enough...?
Although two years have passed, Tang Mingli can still clearly recall the first time Grandpa Fu lost his temper.
At that time, she had only been married into the Fu family for a short time. Even though she had the advantage of knowing the plot, the book didn't describe the Fu family members very much, and she didn't know what kind of people they were.
She thought that as long as they were kind people, that was enough. After all, when it comes to getting along, if you get along, great; if not, you can simply mind your own business.
As long as the other person is a kind person and no cruelty or murder occurs, life can be good.
However, after spending some time with them, she found that the Fu family members were actually quite easy to get along with. At least compared to her colleagues in her previous life, they were a million times easier to get along with.
Just as she was settling in, it was Madam Fu's birthday.
Everyone was happy that day and had a couple of drinks.
Perhaps due to the influence of alcohol, Mr. Fu was suddenly overcome with grief and angrily berated Tang Jianguo and his wife for doing such a thing.
It wasn't explicitly stated which kind of thing it referred to, but it was clear what it was referring to.
When she heard this, her mind went blank for a few seconds.
It turns out that Grandpa Fu had been holding a grudge all along.
Fortunately, she then understood what was bothering Grandpa Fu.
It wasn't directed at her personally, but rather a feeling of disappointment and heartache that such an upright man as Grandpa Tang had given birth to such a son.
They could have discussed it openly and honestly with them, but they chose to do it secretly.
Although she was scolding Tang Jianguo, Tang Mingli's cheeks still burned.
Old Master Fu's noble character is like the bright moon in the sky, shining so clearly that no one can hide from it.
Later, it was Madam Fu who was worried that his words would hurt her, so she had her son help the not-so-conscious Mr. Fu into the room, and that was the end of the incident.
No, that's not right. This episode took a long time to truly pass.
After sobering up, Mr. Fu probably regretted his outburst that day, and felt somewhat uncomfortable whenever he was around her.
She also understood that Grandpa Fu was bothered by it, and would subconsciously try to avoid being alone with him.
It wasn't until six months later that the awkwardness that had been lingering between them gradually dissipated.
Tang Mingli had always respected Grandpa Fu, but this time it was she who had crossed the line.
Judging from their reaction, they seem even angrier than when the Tang family did the arranged marriage.
Will Grandpa be disappointed in her?
Tang Mingli subconsciously brushed her bangs aside to calm the slight restlessness welling up inside her.
She cherishes her current life and doesn't want this warmth and harmony to be broken.
Just because she sees things more clearly than others doesn't mean she has no sincerity towards this family, right?
I have to admit, she loves this home.
It's not just because of the comfortable living conditions, but also because I experienced a family warmth that I never felt in my previous life, and I felt it in the Fu family in this life.
She secretly hoped that these warm and harmonious days could continue forever.
Of course, it's not that she'll be miserable if things don't continue.
Just like in her past life, she lived well for more than twenty years.
No matter what the current situation is, living well is the attitude towards life that she has always believed in.
Now, she only hopes that Fu Ci can calm her grandfather down and hopefully put his mind at ease.
If we really can't get past Grandpa's hurdle, giving up on helping Tang Mingmei is not an option.
In reality, it's just a matter of waiting another year or two. Once the reform and opening-up policies are fully implemented by the end of the year, she can take out some money for Tang Mingmei to start a small business, which is also a form of employment.
Lost in her thoughts, Tang Mingli had already thought far ahead and made alternative preparations.
Fortunately, after Old Master Fu's angry outburst, Fu Ci said something to him, and the study became quiet again.
Those outside couldn't hear what was being discussed inside, so they naturally couldn't guess what was going on inside.
Tang Mingli optimistically thought that the absence of her grandfather's angry shouts meant things were moving in a positive direction.
She should believe Fu Ci, but she was inevitably tormented.
I've been living such a relaxed life these past two years that I've almost forgotten what it feels like.
Madam Fu and her mother, who were not directly involved, were also upset. They had been frightened by Mr. Fu's angry outburst, and now that they had recovered, they were so anxious that they stomped their feet, afraid that Tang Mingli would be frightened, and took turns comforting her.
"Don't worry, it's alright. Fu Ci told your grandfather what to do."
What Fu's mother said was true. It was thanks to Fu Ci's excellence since childhood that the other two men in the family listened to what he said.
But Fu Ci wasn't really sure if she could convince her father-in-law about today's matter.
Madam Fu also said, "Yes, your grandfather is just that stubborn. You should treat what he says as nothing."
Tang Mingli pretended to be amused and reassured them, "I'm not worried."
Or to be more precise, I wasn't too worried.
I do have some concerns, but I wouldn't say I'm overly worried; I have some reservations.
The thought struck Tang Mingli for a moment, and she was taken aback.
She was unaware that she trusted Fu Ci more than she thought.
Those outside had no way of knowing what was happening inside the study.
The three women outside had no other choice but to wait.
Time passed quietly until Zhang Guihua, returning from grocery shopping, opened the door.
Zhang Guihua, unaware of what had happened, excitedly told the three that she had bought Tang Mingli's favorite mandarin fish at the grocery store.
Tang Mingli didn't respond with the same excitement as before; she simply smiled faintly and said thank you.
Zhang Guihua realized something was wrong, but knowing her place, she didn't say anything more and turned to go into the kitchen to busy herself.
After an unknown amount of time, the angry voice of Old Master Fu once again came from the study.
Is what you're doing fair to others?
Aren't other people worried?
When did you become like this?
...
Tang Mingli became increasingly alarmed as she listened.
This is blaming Fu Ci, but isn't it also blaming her?
Old Madam Fu couldn't take it anymore. She suddenly stood up and said harshly, "This stubborn old man, I'm going to give him a good talking to today."
The educated youth office has a responsibility to assist educated youth in difficulty who have returned to the city to find employment. They should just give a heads-up and give priority to arranging suitable jobs for them. It's not like they're taking away someone else's job. Why is he making it sound like they've done something heinous?
Madam Fu was so angry that she pounded her chest and went to the study to argue with Mr. Fu.
Tang Mingli quickly pulled her aside, worried that her involvement would complicate matters further.
"Grandma, calm down. Leave this to Fu Ci, he can handle it."
Fu's mother also agreed with her daughter-in-law; if the mother-in-law went in, it would only make things more complicated.
After repeated persuasion, Madam Fu finally gave up the idea of arguing, and said with a lot of resentment, "It's always like this, as if anything that touches his principles is necessarily wrong. Does he only feel satisfied when everyone is resentful of him?"
This reminded me of the time when Grandpa Fu and his sister broke off contact because of Gu Lin.
Tang Mingli then realized that, compared to her, her grandmother and mother-in-law were probably more afraid that this matter would cause a rift within the family.
Perhaps they shouldn't continue sitting here; not only are they not helping, but they're also causing everyone anxiety.
So Tang Mingli immediately pulled the two elders out the door.
Being outside definitely makes me feel better.
The trees in the yard are much more lush than they were a few days ago.
Looking at the lush green trees, Tang Mingli sighed that spring was truly coming to an end.
She is about to experience her third summer in this world, and also her third summer in the Fu family.
I remember the first time I stepped into this compound, I was a little nervous, but I also liked it very much.
The yard is shaded by green trees, and the bushes are neatly trimmed. It will be wonderful to take a walk in such a clean and refreshing yard in my spare time.
Later on, her relationship with the Fu family was indeed developed step by step in this courtyard.
How can it not be considered taking one step at a time?
So Tang Mingli, you really shouldn't panic.
It's just a problem.
-
Tang Mingli strolled around the yard with her mother-in-law and grandmother, chatting about many unrelated things.
I walked around for a long time and felt like I took more steps than she had in the entire month.
They figured the two men in the study had finished talking before the three of them went home.
When they returned, the two were still in the study, and Zhang Guihua looked hesitant, so it was likely that things hadn't gone well after they left.
Fortunately, after walking around outside, Tang Mingli had adjusted her mindset.
She was no longer worried about Old Master Fu's anger, but instead treated it as a problem that Fu Ci could help solve.
Once she regained a positive mindset, she was able to keep her mother-in-law and grandmother in check.
After a while, Fu Ci finally came out of the study.
It didn't look too bad, which reassured the three people sitting on the sofa.
Fu Ci didn't know if they had been sitting there the whole time or how much they had heard, but he knew he had to give an explanation, otherwise they would definitely start to overthink things.
He walked towards them and said with a smile, "Grandpa needs a little more time to calm down, so let's not disturb him."
Madam Fu was still a little worried about her husband, and couldn't help but ask, "How is your grandfather?"
Fu Ci nodded: "Grandpa is a little angry, but it's not as serious as you think."
Everyone has emotions and desires, and it's normal to get angry. It's perfectly normal to give up.
However, there seem to be exceptions; some people don't seem to experience much emotional fluctuation.
As he was thinking about these things, his gaze briefly swept over Tang Mingli.
Madam Fu and his mother had always trusted him, so if they said that, they must have been worrying too much. Thinking back to the chaos the three of them had gone through, they both found it amusing.
After making sure that his grandmother and mother had been calmed down, Fu Ci looked at Tang Mingli and suddenly asked, "Shall we go for a walk together?"
We've gone out for walks together before, but it's been a very rare occurrence.
Tang Mingli looked at Fu Ci suspiciously, wondering if he wanted to talk to her about her grandfather alone.
However, Madam Fu and her mother thought it was just a little romance between the two young people, and kept laughing and saying that young people should go out more.
Tang Mingli: ...
She probably walked tens of thousands of steps today.
If Fu Ci just wanted to talk to her about his grandfather, going upstairs to the study wouldn't be a bad idea... But wait, maybe he just finished talking to his grandfather and needs some fresh air.
Tang Mingli gritted her teeth and decided to do something extraordinary.
However, after walking in the courtyard for only a short while, Fu Ci pulled her to sit down.
This was exactly what Tang Mingli wanted to do, so naturally she wouldn't refuse.
They had just sat down when a passing neighbor saw the two sitting side by side, looking as beautiful as a golden couple from a painting, and couldn't help but stop to chat for a bit.
"Out for a walk?"
There were quite a few people in the compound. Although she had lived there for two years, Tang Mingli didn't recognize them all and didn't know who the person greeting her was. She could only smile.
"Look at how loving you two are, it's truly enviable."
Faced with this beautiful misunderstanding, Tang Mingli thought she was thick-skinned and just laughed it off, but she didn't expect Fu Ci to just naturally hum in agreement.
Um?
Did he not hear what the neighbor lady was teasing him about?
Fu Ci's "hmm" drew envious sighs from the neighboring auntie: "Youth is wonderful. Looking at you two, I really wish I could go back to my youth and have a proper romance."
Tang Mingli: ...
Although she has a thick skin, she is actually not very tolerant of such teasing.
Fu Ci replied to her in a serious tone, "It's not too late now."
Tang Mingli was stunned; anyone who didn't know better would think they were just having a casual chat.
It seems her understanding of the wording is still too superficial.
What does it mean to have a strong heart? What does it mean to remain calm in the face of honor or disgrace?
Compared to her, she's still too inexperienced.
The rest of the conversation was between Fu Ci and the neighbor auntie, while Tang Mingli listened from the side, her face calm but in reality, she was looking at Fu Ci with newfound respect.
After the aunt left, Tang Mingli almost wanted to clasp her hands in admiration for Fu Ci.
Of course, she almost didn't do that, but it was as if Fu Ci could read her mind.
"You admire me?"
This question completely stunned Tang Mingli, who blurted out, "How did you know?"
Impossible, mind reading is impossible.
Seeing her bewildered expression, Fu Ci smiled again. "Your expression tells me the answer."
"Yeah?"
What does she look like?
Sometimes I feel that this is how you should be.
Tang Mingli understood even less of what he was saying.
What should she do?
Is it like this now?
What's the situation now?
But Fu Ci didn't continue the topic. Instead, he talked to her about what he had talked about with his grandfather in the study.
Tang Mingli's thoughts were immediately drawn to this again.
Grandpa was indeed very unhappy with what they were doing. Fu Ci didn't manage to persuade him either.
Tang Mingli told him about her other idea.
This can be considered a choice.
Between Tang Mingmei and Grandpa Fu, she chose Grandpa Fu.
No, to be precise, she chose the Fu family over the Tang family.
Making this choice wasn't difficult, but that doesn't mean there wasn't pressure.
Fu Ci shook his head in disagreement with her suggestion.
"Grandpa, don't worry about this. It's not too out of line to say hello to someone you know in the educated youth office."
Tang Mingli became even more nervous, "You didn't tell Grandpa this, did you?"
If Grandpa heard this, he would be even angrier.
"Of course." Fu Ci really wanted to soothe her tension.
That's alright.
Tang Mingli didn't say it aloud, but it was very obvious to her.
Fu Ci sighed softly and said to Tang Mingli, "Grandpa is already this old, his personality is already set, and it can't be changed."
"really."
Tang Mingli certainly understood this principle.
As the saying goes, you can tell what a person will be like at three years old. My grandfather is already in his seventies, and his personality is already set.
So he brought himself out of the picture to say this?
Are you worried that this matter will cause a rift between her and her grandfather?
Then it's necessary to explain.
Tang Mingli thought she had guessed his worries and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't hold a grudge against Grandpa because of this."
Why would she have a problem with him?
To put it bluntly, the Fu family's current status is something they earned through sheer hard work and sacrifice.
They all benefited from his kindness and received his protection; they cannot turn around and abandon their conscience.
But Fu Ci sighed softly after hearing this.
Tang Mingli was puzzled. Had she said something wrong?
Fu Ci looked at her with an unusually serious expression and asked, "Am I still not able to give you enough security?"
Tang Mingli blinked, and whether it was her imagination or not, he seemed to give a wry smile as he said this.
She desperately wanted to reflect on what she had said and why he had suddenly asked that question. But her mind was buzzing with activity, like hundreds of tiny bees were flying around, making it impossible for her to think.
I felt like I had just run 800 meters; my heart was pounding like a war drum, about to leap out of my chest.
After a long pause, she licked her dry lips and tried to remain calm as she asked, "Why are you suddenly asking that?"
Fu Ci did not answer; instead, he gave himself the answer.
"I think so, otherwise how could you have already thought of compromising while I was still talking to Grandpa? I only said that Grandpa's personality can't be changed, and you assumed that I was worried that you would have a problem with him."
is that so?
Do these things have anything to do with whether he can provide a sense of security?
Before Tang Mingli could even process what was happening, Fu Ci had already continued speaking.
"What I really want to say is that I'm the one living your life. As for other people, even my family, if we disagree on some things, you don't need to take it too seriously, and you don't need to be afraid."
Did he notice her fear?
Tang Mingli opened her mouth slightly, instinctively wanting to deny it, but her throat felt like it was blocked by something.
At the same time, I was also deeply shocked.
Would there ever be a husband in this world who would say something like that to his wife?
Isn't it all about demanding that wives be understanding, patient, and accommodating, and constantly saying, "They're my family"?
She would never have believed it if she hadn't heard it with her own ears.
When Fu Ci gently told her not to be afraid, Tang Mingli suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
Fu Ci is talking strangely today.
"I'm not exactly good with sweet words... but that's about all I wanted to say to you. I'll try my best to do better in the future where I haven't done enough, and I hope you can feel more secure then."
Oh no, now I feel not only heartbroken, but my eyes are also stinging.
Tang Mingli quickly rubbed it.
He probably meant to say something sweet, which shows he has a good sense of self-awareness.
However, although he couldn't offer her sweet words, he did provide her with a stable life.
Who says this isn't a sense of security?
It's just that she's on guard, which is why she feels uneasy for no reason.
Did he treat Tang Mingmei the same way in his previous life?
Tang Mingli found it funny as soon as she thought about it.
She's become obsessed; these are two completely unrelated lifetimes.
Oh dear, that's so strange.
Her words today were strange, and so was her.
But then she suddenly understood some things.
Whether Grandpa stays angry or not, she will treat him the same way she always has.
Grandpa is the kind of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force; things aren't that complicated.
Feeling that his wife had indeed relaxed, Fu Ci couldn't help but reach out and gently rub her head.
Sometimes, no, many times, he really wanted to know what was going on in that little head.
-
Let's talk about the Tang family, who caused this little gloom in the Fu family.
After Tang Jianguo and Li Hong returned from the Fu family's house, they didn't dare tell their daughter about going to the Fu family's house because Tang Mingli hadn't given them a definite answer.
Tang Mingmei assumed they had gone out for a walk on their day off and didn't return until midday, which made her inexplicably unhappy.
But since returning to the city, she has been throwing tantrums at her parents far too frequently.
She reflected that her intention in living again was to live more freely, not just to vent the pent-up resentment from her two lifetimes on her parents.
So she restrained herself, even though she was unhappy, and only made veiled remarks about them during lunch.
While other parents are busy working hard for their children, they take their time and even have the leisure to go out.
Li Hong and Tang Jianguo felt truly wronged, but they couldn't explain themselves.
To change the subject, Li Hong brought up another matter: "I'll tell you something you'd never guess, Fu Ci actually quit his job."
"What?" Sure enough, Tang Mingmei's attention was successfully diverted, and she appeared extremely shocked, pressing her mother for an answer: "Who told you that?"
“Of course, I heard it from Mingli.”
"When did you see Tang Mingli?" Tang Mingmei wasn't stupid; she immediately guessed what was going on and asked angrily, "Did you go to the Fu family today?"
"We didn't." How could Li Hong admit it? She insisted that she hadn't.
Tang Mingmei sneered: "How would you know about this if you've never been to the Fu family?"
“We met Mingli today and chatted with her for a while. She told us that.” Li Hong lied without hesitation; it wasn’t difficult for her.
"Really?" Tang Mingmei was skeptical.
"Really." Li Hong said without any hesitation.
Tang Mingmei tentatively accepted the belief and stopped doubting her parents. Instead, she muttered to herself, "Tang Mingli didn't object at all?"
Upon hearing this, Li Hong truthfully replied, "I don't know."
She was thinking the same thing as her daughter: how could that idiot niece allow Fu Ci to give up her secure job?
A mother and daughter are of one mind, and Tang Mingmei said the same thing: "What an idiot."
At the same time, Tang Mingmei also remembered something she had almost forgotten.
—In his previous life, Fu Ci had also considered quitting his secure job.
When he discussed it with his family, she thought they would object, but to her surprise, they all went along with it, forcing her to stand up and vehemently oppose it.
Finally, under her fierce opposition, even threatening suicide, Fu Cai managed to keep his secure job. Otherwise, it's unimaginable what would have become of the Fu family, who were now just a shell of their former self, if they had lost even this job.
Why doesn't Tang Mingli object to Fu resigning?
Perhaps they objected, but their attitude wasn't firm.
What a foolish woman! Fu Ci's current job, while the pay isn't great, is still a dream job for many. If she just works honestly, at least she won't starve.
The thought that Tang Mingmei would soon be unemployed filled her with excitement. She dared not imagine how miserable their lives would be afterward.
No, she had to hurry up and urge the educated youth office to arrange a job for her.
Without hesitation, Tang Mingmei went to the educated youth office after lunch.
Li Hong wanted to stop them, but she couldn't. She also couldn't tell them that they had already asked the Fu family for help, and that they should just stay home and wait.
She asked her husband anxiously, "Won't Mingmei's actions backfire and displease the people in the Youth Affairs Office?"
This was exactly what Tang Jianguo was worried about, and after thinking about it, he still chased after them.
-
The people in the educated youth office were genuinely afraid of Tang Mingmei; they would try to hide whenever they saw her.
Tang Mingmei also knew that she was now a headache for the educated youth office.
What can be done? If she doesn't fight for herself, finding a job will be even more of a distant prospect.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and keep asking them when they could arrange her work.
When she arrived today, before she could even speak, a woman from the educated youth office preemptively said to her sternly, "I've told you many times that we'll let you know if there's a suitable job. You don't need to come over from the rooftop."
Tang Mingmei retorted irritably, "I'm anxious; I can't sit still at home."
"So many educated youth returning to the city are waiting for arrangements. Do you think you're the only one in a hurry?"
"I don't care, all I know is that I'm unemployed and can't survive."
"Do you think you can just get a job whenever you want? Why don't you learn from others and think of other ways to survive?"
The other method this woman mentioned was setting up a stall on the black market.
Previously, the crackdown was strict, and no one dared to do this. Recently, it seems to have loosened up a lot, and many older unemployed young people who have returned to the city have seen this and started doing it.
But since it was illegal, the people in the educated youth office didn't dare to be too blunt.
Tang Mingmei had heard about it, but she would never do such a thing.
If caught, the consequences range from a fine to imprisonment.
When Tang Mingmei realized that the people in the educated youth office were actually encouraging her to do this, she couldn't hold back anymore and started arguing with the woman.
As the argument escalated, Tang Jianguo arrived and, with great effort, finally managed to drag his daughter away.
Naturally, Tang Mingmei's pent-up anger was directed at him, and she cried as she asked her father, "Why did you give birth to me? You made me suffer in the countryside for two years, and now you can't even arrange a job for me, leaving me living such a confused and anxious life."
Tang Jianguo was heartbroken upon hearing this. He suddenly felt exhausted and didn't understand the meaning of life anymore.
He admitted that he was a useless father, which was why his daughter was living such a life.
Overwhelmed with guilt, he almost broke down. With red eyes, he assured his daughter, "Trust Dad, I will definitely get you a job. Just be patient and wait a little longer."
"Wait, wait, how much longer do we have to wait?"
To outsiders, she had only waited a month or so, but only she knew that she had waited for two lifetimes.
Tang Jianguo didn't know either, and could only emphasize that it would be soon.
If the Fu family refuses, he will risk his life to make the factory agree to let his daughter take his place at work.
Two years ago, he wasn't resolute enough, and his daughter suffered for more than two years in the countryside. He can't make the same mistake again.
Perhaps it was the sudden firmness in her father's eyes that Tang Mingmei had never seen before, but she gradually calmed down.
A voice inside me was saying, "Why don't you listen to your father this once?"
She shouldn't be in such a hurry. Think of Tang Mingli; she's the one who should be overwhelmed right now.
-
Just a few days after Tang Mingmei caused a scene at the educated youth office, the people from the office came to her and brought her good news.
Tang Mingmei couldn't believe that a dream that seemed so far away just a few days ago had suddenly come true.
She was so excited her lips trembled as she asked, "Really? You're not lying to me?"
The older woman at the educated youth office was much nicer than before, and she laughed at her, saying, "Look at you, I came to your house in person to inform you, would I lie to you?"
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Tang Mingmei burst into tears of joy.
She didn't think too much about it, only that she had finally been assigned a job, and she excitedly exclaimed in her heart, "I have a job! I finally have a job!"
Having lived two lives, she's finally going to have a job.
Although she doesn't know what the job entails, the brown sugar factory worker once said that she would cherish any job she takes.
Tang Mingmei was so excited that she cried for a while before realizing that she hadn't even poured anyone a glass of water. She quickly wiped away her tears and poured a glass of water for the older sister in the educated youth office.
The woman from the educated youth office took it and said thank you.
Such politeness almost stunned Tang Mingmei.
She still remembered how this older woman had treated her after all the times she had visited the educated youth office.
It seems she still needs to have a job. After obtaining worker status, even the staff at the educated youth office who used to look down on her started to treat her well.
Tang Mingmei looked down on people who fawned over the powerful and belittled the weak, but considering that she hadn't started working yet, she could only choose to endure it.
The older sister from the educated youth office then explained to Tang Mingmei when to report to the brown sugar factory and some things to pay attention to during the reporting process. Only after she felt that nothing had been overlooked did she slowly get up to leave.
However, before leaving, he looked at Tang Mingmei several times, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
Unfortunately, Tang Mingmei was so engrossed in the joy of starting work that she didn't notice anything amiss.
The older woman from the educated youth office was a little unwilling to give up. Even though she had already reached the door, she still asked, "Don't you have a cousin?"
Tang Mingmei replied with an "yes," then asked warily, "What's wrong? What does this have to do with my work schedule?"
She remembered Li Dazhu mentioning that some jobs required background checks.
Could they be trying to get Tang Mingli to investigate her?
She became more and more nervous. What if Tang Mingli couldn't stand her doing well and said something reckless? Wouldn't she lose the job she had worked so hard for?
Fortunately, what the older sister from the educated youth office said next put her at ease.
"It's nothing. I just heard that you have a cousin whose parents passed away a long time ago and were raised by your parents. You should have told me sooner."
Why didn't you say so earlier? You said her parents were helping raise someone else's child? Does that mean she'll get priority in job placements?
While Tang Mingmei looked on with suspicion, the older woman from the educated youth office quickly said, "Oh dear, oh dear, I was too talkative. I'll be going now."
Tang Mingmei couldn't wait for her to leave.
The older woman from the educated youth office came downstairs and patted her chest in frustration.
"I almost blurted it out, otherwise I would have had a hard time explaining myself."
These two cousins are really strange. They are close relatives, but one of them helps others secretly, and the other doesn't say anything about their relationship.
The older sister shook her head, unable to understand the thinking of young people these days.
-
Fu Ci learned that Tang Mingmei's work had been arranged just before he was about to leave work.
When he got home, he told his family about it while they were all there.
When Tang Mingli heard about the brown sugar factory, she didn't react much. However, Grandpa Fu, who had been keeping a straight face for the past few days, changed his expression and looked somewhat complicated.
"A brown sugar factory?"
Fu Ci nodded.
Grandpa Fu opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately said nothing.
Tang Mingli was completely confused.
What happened to Hongtang Factory?
