"Hey! Who's back? Let me see whose girl this is! People who come back from America are different!"
You've gained weight, and your family is worried, yet you still have the time to eat and drink? Aren't you going to college? Why are you so obsessed with going there?"
Jiang Cha happily took the things to her grandma's house, and when she entered the door, the old lady spoke to her in a sarcastic tone.
She felt so wronged. She had finally come back, but the old lady still bullied her.
"Grandma, can't you just talk to me nicely? I just came back and didn't even enter the house to see you.
Besides, how do you know what I do? It's confidential, so don't talk nonsense."
Look around carefully to make sure none of your neighbors are climbing over the wall.
I looked at my grandma nervously. Although the old lady was old, there were some things of principle that she couldn't violate.
After locking the door, she looked at her grandma seriously. The old lady sat on the sofa and stared at her calmly.
"What do you mean?"
The old lady saw that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, and looked at Jiang Cha with a smile on her lips.
"Well, grandma, who told you where I was going and what I was doing? This is no small matter. All of this is confidential. Please tell me quickly. Once we catch that person, we will try to give you leniency.
I promise, even if it means risking my life, I will find a solution for you. What do you, an old lady, know? It must be some wicked grandson who deliberately framed you. Don't worry, we'll figure it out slowly."
He looked at the old lady cautiously, fearing that she might be upset and her body wouldn't be able to handle it due to her age.
There are only a few people around her who are truly kind to her, and if she gets them into trouble because of work.
So let's have less contact from now on! What we do is risky, maybe it would be safer for everyone if we kept our distance.
Just as Jiang Cha was daydreaming and planning to distance herself from everyone, her grandma slapped her on the back.
I looked at my grandma in confusion, why was she attacking me?
"You really don't consider us your own family. When danger strikes, you'll be the first to cut ties with us, right?
Don't deny it, little girl. Just one look at your eyes and I know what you're thinking. How many years has it been? And you still can't keep me warm, you little bitch?
If there is anything, just speak up and we can solve it together. You keep everything in your heart and you are too heavy-hearted. If I dare to speak out, I am not afraid of being implicated. I will see if that bastard dares to make trouble here."
When the old lady spoke, her aura was totally unlike that of an old lady from the alley. Her usual posture seemed like the habits of the old bannermen, but now it looked completely different!
The Bannerwoman would never speak with murderous intent. She looked at the old lady suspiciously, wondering what she was doing.
Anyway, it doesn't look like the archives room, could it be?
I watched Jiang Cha's eyes rolling back and forth, and then his pupils dilated.
Grandma patted her hands with a smile and said something in a soft voice.
Jiang Cha was so scared that he almost jumped up. He covered his mouth tightly, his screams were stuck in his throat, and his eyes were wide open.
"On behalf of the unit, I welcome you to join us. I'm very happy to be your recommender. You've done a great job!"
"Grandma, are you also from the unit?"
"Sister Jin is one of the founders of our unit. You must not have carefully read the information I gave you, which introduces the history of our unit."
The person who was speaking was the leader of the unit. He came out of the kitchen with a plate of fried peanuts in his hand.
With his sleeves rolled up and an apron tied around his neck, he looked very down-to-earth and was completely different from the leaders we usually see in the office.
"Try this! It's his specialty, five-spice peanuts. It's rare for you to come here and fry a plate for me?"
The leader also fried five-spice peanuts?
Carefully pinch one and put it in your mouth. It is crispy, slightly salty and has a strong five-spice flavor. It tastes better than the ones you buy outside.
"Sister, when I have time, I'll come over and fry some for you. This won't taste good if it's left out for too long."
The two of them drank tea and savored the peanuts earnestly, completely ignoring her, leaving Jiang Cha scratching her head anxiously. What was going on? Was her grandmother at the company or even one of the founders?
"Silly boy, hurry up and apologize to your leader! Who was it that said they were going to find that bastard who told me? It was him, so you can do whatever you want with him."
Grandma picked up the teacup and took a sip, watching the fun without minding the hassle, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
She didn't even dare to look closely at the leader's face. Who knew he was the one who came over and said that? Wasn't she quite anxious at the time, afraid that someone was trying to do something bad to the old lady?
"Leader, please forgive the mistakes of a villain. I'm pouring tea for you and admitting my mistake. I'm sorry!"
Pour another cup of tea for the leader and hand it to him with both hands.
The leader took the tea and took a big gulp. Then he stood up, slamming the table, his eyes wide open and his face flushed.
Jiang Cha thought he was going to hit someone, so she quickly protected her grandmother behind her.
When the atmosphere became a little tense, the old lady behind him laughed so hard that she slapped the table.
"My bad, my bad. The water in the pot was just boiled. I held the cup and didn't take a sip. I forgot to tell you that our cups are left over from the past. This set of cups is not hot and is well insulated."
I clenched my back teeth hard to stop myself from laughing. Otherwise, when I go back to work tomorrow, I won't be able to explain why my boss is giving me such a hard time.
The leader went to the kitchen to rinse his mouth, came back, pointed at the ginger tea, and spoke to grandma with his eyes.
"Are you trying to vent her anger? This time it was our negligence, and it won't happen again! This time it was my fault, and I've been punished, so we can move on!"
Grandma chatted with him for a while, and the leader left not long after.
She watched the old lady kneading dough and rolling noodles at her grandmother's house and couldn't believe that this Manchu princess was the founder of the company.
If I think about it carefully, there are actually many details that I hadn't noticed before. Although those years were so chaotic, my grandmother's status was not affected at all.
She still lived in a small courtyard house and had a telephone at home. Even Lei Zi's uncles almost thought they were implicated and had to marry a legitimate wife.
They even stayed away from their families and never returned, fearing that something might happen to them.
As a result, the old lady's peaceful and stable life over the years made them extremely jealous of Lei Zi, who felt that he was taking advantage of her.
I just don't know why the old lady recommended her. To be honest, she has a lot of secrets and doesn't really want to join a formal unit.
It’s not that I’m afraid of life and death, but the pressure of hiding a secret among a group of smart people is extremely great.
Because of this, she didn't go to Uncle Liu's place. The old man had invited her many times. After all, she was a person who had made many outstanding achievements.
In the end, I still got a job in the company. From now on, I must be more humble and keep secrets more secretly.
"Don't overthink it! I recommended you because, first of all, you're a natural at this. How much have you accomplished as a purchasing agent over the years?
Secondly, I feel more assured with professional training. To be frank, I think you are prone to bad luck. Whenever you go out, you run into trouble. Those bad guys just pick on you. I don't know who will be unlucky.
Third, you've been raised by us, and the training you've received over the years is pretty much the same. This job isn't easy, but it seems like it's right for you."
Thank you for the compliment, grandma. I never thought that the bad guys who fell into her hands over the years would become the stepping stone to enter the unit.
