He Ting continued, "That's it. Madam Lu's misunderstanding is a bit deep. A few days ago, she came to our clothing store and warned my wife to leave Teacher Gu Chuanbai."
"I tried to explain to her that my wife and I had been married for a long time, but she didn't seem to listen."
"She warned my wife not to get involved with Teacher Gu and not to appear in front of him and you. She also said that one's background determines one's future, and a pheasant can never become a phoenix."
"Mrs. Lu seems to have a big prejudice against my wife. I don't know what kind of disrespectful behavior my wife has done in your house. So, Minister Lu, I want to apologize on her behalf while I'm here at the Ministry of Commerce to get some information."
Shen Junqian also chimed in: "Yes, Minister Lu, we country folks don't know how to behave."
"Please be magnanimous and ask your ladyship not to bother with my sister Weiwei."
He seemed to be lowering his head, but every word he said made Lu Yuanze's face almost burn.
If he hadn't gone abroad to investigate and get to know Shen Junqian and He Ting, he would have thought that someone had deliberately framed his wife Zhang Yulan.
Although he and Zhang Yulan had a political marriage and had no feelings for each other, they treated each other with respect.
The Zhang Yulan mentioned by the two young men and the Zhang Yulan he interacts with on a daily basis seem to be two different people.
wrong!
That day, after Gu Chuanbai finished his medical consultation, he talked to Yu Lan in the yard. It was obvious that Yu Lan had no idea what they were talking about in the house.
How did she know that Gu Chuanbai said he was interested in Lu, and then go to him and say those threatening words?
Thinking of his wife Zhang Yulan's inexplicable hostility towards Mr. Lu, Lu Yuanze subconsciously felt that perhaps he did not understand Zhang Yulan's other side.
Lu Yuanze's face was dull: "This is probably a misunderstanding. Yu Lan heard what I talked about with Chuan Bai."
"Isn't there any rumor in school that you and classmate Lu are husband and wife?"
Although he was making a complaint, He Ting didn't want to affect Lu Baiwei and Gu Chuanbai's plans.
Gu Chuanbai must have his own reasons for letting Weiwei act as a shield in front of Zhang Yulan.
He Ting explained: "Maybe we are too busy and don't have much interaction at school."
It seems that Gu Chuanbai really didn't ask about Lu's situation.
Student Lu looks like a young girl who just came from the countryside to go to school in the city. No wonder Gu Chuanbai didn’t know that she had already gotten married in the countryside.
So what if I’m from the countryside?
Mr. Lu has good qualifications. He runs his own shop very well and he also has good medical skills.
Why did Yu Lan stop Gu Chuanbai from dating her?
Yu Lan and Gu Chuanbai are obviously not related by blood, but the Zhang family and the Gu family have some connections, and the couple helped Gu Chuanbai.
It is puzzling that Yu Lan, in her capacity as a sister, interferes with Gu Chuanbai's relationship.
Of course, the fact is that classmate Lu had been married for a long time, and she didn't even understand the situation clearly. She rushed to the girl and said some nonsense, which was even insulting.
Lu Yuanze couldn't help but become suspicious.
"A Ting Xiao Shen, please tell Mr. Lu that I'm sorry for my wife's disrespectful behavior."
"My wife would never behave like this before. I will find out what is going on as soon as possible."
Based on Lu Yuanze's understanding of his wife Zhang Yulan, if he directly asked Zhang Yulan why she went to cause trouble for classmate Lu, she would definitely cry and say that everything was for Gu Chuanbai's good and that she treated Gu Chuanbai as her younger brother.
In order to find out why Zhang Yulan was so hostile towards classmate Lu, Lu Yuanze thought he had to start with Aunt Miao.
That day, classmate Gu Chuanbailu was examining her, and Aunt Miao came in under the pretext of serving tea and never left. It must have been Zhang Yulan's instruction.
Lu Yuanze knew very well that he could find a breakthrough from Aunt Miao.
After He Ting and Shen Junqian left with the materials from their last overseas inspection, Lu Yuanze had just decided to leave work early in the afternoon and ask Aunt Miao privately what was going on when his secretary knocked on the door and walked into the office.
"Minister, I just got news from Adjutant Lin who works for our old leader that the inspection team heading south tomorrow morning will be moved up and will leave this afternoon."
"To be prepared, should I help you pack your luggage in advance?"
Lu Yuanze was very surprised: "Didn't you say tomorrow morning?"
"According to Adjutant Lin, it was Minister Zhang who reported some of the situations in the south to him, and the old leader made this decision on the spur of the moment."
"I think they will notify you in a little while and ask you to go to the meeting."
Just as the secretary said, a call to the office was received shortly afterwards notifying them of a meeting.
Considering the old leader's vigorous and resolute style, it seems that the inspection trip to the south will most likely have to be brought forward.
In this case, He Ting could only wait until he came back from the south to ask Aunt Miao about the matter that Xiao Shen mentioned.
Lu Yuanze's style has always been to put work and the interests of the people first.
The inspection trip to the south cannot be delayed.
He told his secretary: "Go to Shichahai and help me pack my luggage."
"I'm rushing over to have a meeting with my old leader..."
Lu Yuanze had no idea what kind of disaster would result from his decision to find Aunt Miao to find out the situation after returning from his inspection in the south.
Upon learning that he and his brother, Minister Zhang, had followed their old leader to the south, Zhang Yulan made an appointment with Manager Sun from the sugar factory to appear at a state-owned restaurant in Wangfujing that specializes in roast duck the next day.
"You are Manager Sun from the sugar factory, right? The one in charge of logistics?"
Section Chief Zhang Yulan wanted to see her, which made Manager Sun very nervous.
When leaders like Section Chief Zhang come to inspect the factory, they are received and met by factory leaders like the factory director.
When will it be her turn?
Section Chief Zhang Yulan is from the Zhang family and married to an extraordinary husband. People say that she is rich and lucky, with a strong family background and a prominent husband's family.
I don’t know how many women envy me.
Manager Sun really couldn't figure out why a person like her would want to meet a small-time sugar factory manager like him.
Knowing that there was such a person as her in the sugar factory, he not only came to see her, but also privately invited her to the state-owned restaurant, saying that he wanted to treat her to dinner.
Manager Sun thought, could this be a Hongmen Banquet?
"Manager Sun, don't be nervous. I'm here to find out what's going on."
Zhang Yulan completely crushed Manager Sun in terms of momentum. She smiled very friendly and said, "I heard that your sugar factory signed an order for work clothes with Weiman Clothing. Is that true?"
It turned out that they were investigating the orders for their sugar factory and Weiman Clothing.
Could it be that the higher-ups don't allow us to do business with private companies?
Whose job was affected by Weiman Clothing?
But the work uniform order has to be approved by the factory leaders!
It seems that we can only respond as we are faced with the situation.
Manager Sun confessed: "Chief Zhang, it is true. Our sugar factory has signed an order for 1,000 sets of work uniforms with Weiman Clothing."
"A thousand sets? Interesting."
Zhang Yulan continued to ask: "How much did you sign the contract for?"
"Forty-five dollars."
Manager Sun explained: "Chief Zhang, the price of 45 yuan is lower than the market price."
