Chapter 62 Paying a large sum of money
Because she had such a good meal last night, Lin Xiaotong was in a good mood when she went to work the next day, humming a little tune leisurely.
"Lin Xiaotong, why are you so happy today?"
He Cuicui looked at Lin Xiaotong with a smile on her face and couldn't help but ask.
"That is, what good things happened to you? Tell me about it."
Yan Yue sorted out the things on the counter and put them in order. She also felt that Lin Xiaotong was particularly happy today.
"Could it be that your man is coming back?"
Sister Mei joked, knitting a small hat with her hands. Winter was coming soon, and her granddaughter couldn't let herself get cold.
"No, it's just that my salary is coming soon, I'm happy, hehehe."
Workers are finally going to receive their first month’s salary, and it makes me happy just thinking about it.
“That’s a happy thing indeed.”
Yan Yue nodded. Although her family was not short of money, the first money she earned on her own was always different.
"You haven't even started raising children yet, but as soon as I get my salary, I have to spend it on this and that for the family. I don't spend it all."
Sister Mei thought about having a family and children, and she always worried about food and clothing.
It has been a long time since I went out shopping with my good sisters.
It’s still more comfortable to be a girl.
Everyone was still joking around when they heard the sound of leather shoes tapping.
The four of them looked up and saw Fu Zhenggang walking in, followed by Zhao Yunyun, whom they hadn't seen for a long time.
"Give me a box of Daqianmen cigarettes!"
"Two bottles of Moutai."
Fu Zhenggang slammed the Moutai approval slip on the counter.
"Give me four feet of this Dacron material."
"Give me one pound of each of these two snacks."
Fu Zhenggang was like a local tycoon, standing tall in front of the counter, pointing and buying a bunch of things without blinking.
"A box of Daqianmen cigarettes is 35 cents, a bottle of Maotai is 7 yuan, Dacron is 43 cents a foot, and dim sum is 24 cents a pound."
"That's sixteen dollars and fifty-five cents."
Lin Xiaotong stood in front of the counter counting money, while Yan Yue and Sister Mei put the things on the counter and packed them in department store bags.
Fu Zhenggang shook his feet and shoved two ten-dollar bills in front of Lin Xiaotong.
He touched his head with a crooked mouth, looked back at Zhao Yunyun who lowered her head and remained silent, and waved his hand.
"And bring me a can of Great Friendship Cream and a bar of soap."
Fu Zhenggang felt that he should give Zhao Yunyun some sweet treats. He, Fu Zhenggang, was no longer the stingy person he used to be.
From the corner of my eye, I saw that Zhao Yunyun was obviously in a better mood when she heard him say that she wanted to buy some things for women to wipe their faces and hands.
Fu Zhenggang sneered in his heart. This woman was quite good at judging the situation and knew that she would have a good life only if she followed him.
What can that disfigured old man give him!
Fu Zhenggang thought to himself, "I want to see if Zhao Yunyun will take the initiative to ask for a divorce."
"Great Friendship Vanishing Cream is two dollars, and Bee Flower Soap is twenty cents. The total is eighteen dollars and seventy-five cents."
Lin Xiaotong quickly gave Fu Zhenggang one dollar and twenty-five cents.
Yan Yue handed a pile of things to Fu Zhenggang. Fu Zhenggang coughed, meaning that he wanted Zhao Yunyun to come and carry the things.
Zhao Yunyun raised her head and said softly, "Let me do it."
"Hold on tight, this Moutai is not easy to get."
Seeing her like this, Fu Zhenggang gave her a worried warning and turned away.
Zhao Yunyun reached out to take the large and small bags. She hadn't eaten enough in the morning, so it was a bit difficult for her to carry the things. Her fingers were sore and painful from being squeezed.
She still looked obedient as she carried her things and followed Fu Zhenggang, and the two of them gradually walked away.
"My God, this guy spends money without blinking an eye."
He Cuicui thought that the man had spent half of her month's salary in one go, and her face was full of surprise.
"Look at that man in a Zhongshan suit with greased hair. He looks like a leader, or the son of a leader."
Sister Mei is knowledgeable and experienced. She looked at Fu Zhenggang's ostentatious appearance and shook her head.
She just couldn't understand why a good person could speak like a traitor.
The next sentence seemed to be about to blurt out: "Yoshi, flower girl! Hehehe."
"That person is from the Revolutionary Committee."
When Lin Xiaotong saw Fu Zhenggang bringing Zhao Yunyun in, her melon-eating radar immediately went off.
"Xiao Lin, do you know those two people?"
When Sister Mei heard that the man was from the Revolutionary Committee, her face changed immediately. No wonder he dared to buy so many things in broad daylight.
"Sister Mei, not only do I know this person, you all have known him for a long time!"
Lin Xiaotong took out some melon seeds and cracked them slowly. After all, these two people had already appeared in their gossip pool.
"Who is it? Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me."
Yan Yue was tickled by Lin Xiaotong's words, and looked at Lin Xiaotong with her peach blossom eyes.
"Lin Xiaotong, you're not talking about the big fool who fell into the cesspool, are you?"
He Cuicui carefully recalled Fu Zhenggang's appearance and suddenly spoke out.
"Ah! Sister Cuicui, you are as smart as ever!"
Lin Xiaotong raised her eyebrows, patted the melon seed crumbs in her hands, and continued.
"That man is the youngest son of Chairman Fu of the City's Second Food Factory. Sister Mei should be familiar with his family affairs."
"So it's him! That's it, this guy has the exact same face as his father."
When Sister Mei heard this, she instantly became excited, put down the wool in her hand, leaned closer and spoke in a low voice.
"I heard that this kid's mother, Xia Caiyun, has been looking for matchmakers to find him a wife from the city."
"Xia Caiyun said that the appearance of a daughter-in-law is secondary. It is best if she has a job."
"I heard that all the matchmakers in that area have been harassed by Xia Caiyun. Now when they see her, they want to hide in the ground for fear of being pestered by her."
"Tell me, with so many requirements for finding a daughter-in-law, what mother in her right mind would dare to marry her daughter into one?"
"I haven't heard of this?"
Lin Xiaotong didn't know that Xia Caiyun was busy looking for a wife for Fu Zhenggang.
"My mother is out there looking for a daughter-in-law, but this son has already found a woman himself, right?"
He Cuicui didn't understand again. What was going on?
"The girl we saw today is from our compound, and she's already married."
Lin Xiaotong peeled another orange slice and put it in her mouth, then continued to add more thunder to the melon pond.
This orange is really sweet, sour and delicious, and it bursts with juice in one bite.
“Oh my god, this is too exciting.”
The three of them were stunned for a moment, their mouths open, not knowing what to say.
"Isn't this just hooliganism? Aren't they afraid of being reported?"
Sister Mei knew that many men and women were arrested and interrogated by the Revolutionary Committee for having promiscuous relationships.
After being released, their skin was peeled off, their heads were shaved into a yin-yang style, and they were often dragged out for criticism.
"That man himself is a member of the Revolutionary Committee."
After hearing this, Sister Mei understood the twists and turns. It turned out that family members don’t arrest their own people!
However, there is one thing Lin Xiaotong doesn’t understand. Why did Fu Zhenggang dare to bring Zhao Yunyun out this time? Wasn’t he afraid of being beaten by Zhao Yunyun’s man?
Song Yuanchao doesn't look like the kind of person who would suffer in silence.
The four of them were still whispering to each other.
…
Here, Fu Zhenggang took Zhao Yunyun back to the small room of the Revolutionary Committee.
As soon as he entered the room, Fu Zhenggang loosened the collar of his shirt, sat down lazily on the bed, spread his legs and waited for Zhao Yunyun to take off his shoes.
