When she heard that it was sent from her youngest son, Zheng Shuangling's face showed a rare sincere tenderness and smile. She immediately took the item handed to her by the postman and signed for it.
"Trouble."
“That’s our job.”
Sent the postman away.
Everyone gathered around immediately.
"Southern Xinjiang? Was it sent by Mu Yanjin?"
"Mu Yanjin is such a filial child. He walked so far away and still remembered to send something back to you. Sister-in-law, come and see what he sent you."
"This child is so filial!"
Zheng Shuangling opened the gift as she spoke. It was a beautiful jade bracelet of just the right size.
She has fair skin and the emerald green bracelet looks very beautiful on her hand.
This made the people around him envious.
In the attached letter, he first expressed birthday wishes, then apologized and explained why he could not be present, and asked about the health of everyone in the family. Every word was full of longing.
Zheng Shuangling felt soft-hearted and her eyes became slightly moist.
But there are some people who just like to ruin the atmosphere.
Xilin, who was sitting on the leftmost sofa, smiled and said, "Yanjin is truly a filial child. Like the commander, he's also someone who can endure hardships. I heard he left a government agency like ours and personally applied to his superiors to come to the most difficult southern Xinjiang to complete his work."
"Oh, by the way, I heard it seems to be for a female educated youth. It seems that female colleague must be very good-looking and have a good personality, otherwise how could she catch the eye of our Yanjin? Sister-in-law, don't hide it, is it about to be a good thing?"
Zheng Shuangling's expression froze for a moment after these words were spoken, but she quickly returned to her previous state. With a faint smile, she explained, "Don't listen to what others say. Yanjin is a kind-hearted child. He can't bear to see others suffer. Whenever he encounters injustice, he will go and help."
"Yeah, I remember when he was little, he had this temper. When he saw beggars on the street, he would want to take out everything he had on him!"
"I remember that year when he came to my house for dinner, he secretly gave a chicken drumstick to the stray dog at the door. This kid is really rare!"
We are all smart people.
Naturally, they noticed that Zheng Shuangling was unhappy, and without waiting for Xilin to say anything, they all spoke up and agreed, completely exposing the matter.
Xilin saw that the topic had been diverted to another place, and although she was unwilling to accept it, she couldn't say anything more.
The dinner lasted until after nine o'clock.
Zheng Shuangling sent everyone away one after another. After returning home, she looked at the messy house and her face became darker and darker.
My mind is full of what Xilin just said!
Bang!
The cup on the table next to him was smashed to the ground.
Zheng Shuangling's eyes were dark as she quickly stepped forward and dialed the number: "Southern Xinjiang, the Youth Corps Department. Yes, ask for their Minister Wang."
After a short wait, the call was quickly connected.
"Commander Mu!"
"It's me."
"Is this Sister-in-law?" Minister Wang on the other end of the line was a little surprised to hear Zheng Shuangling's voice, and his tone was no longer as tense and serious as before: "Sister-in-law, is there something important that you're calling so late at night? Are you looking for Yan Jin? I'll put the call through to their dormitory right away."
"No, I'm looking for you."
"Then sister-in-law..."
"I heard that Yanjin has been taking special care of a young educated youth recently. Do you know about her situation?"
"Well..." Minister Wang immediately sensed something was wrong and spoke hesitantly, "That's true, but Yan Jin is a serious worker and treats everyone very well."
"Minister Wang, it's time to get off work now. There's no need to be so polite. I didn't want Yan Jin to go so far away, but he's very ambitious and wants to experience the same things as his father. I can't stop him. I feel more at ease knowing you're there, Minister Wang."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I will definitely take good care of Yanjin. The young educated youth you just asked about does exist. Her name is Qin Siyan. She is a pretty girl."
"Where are you from?"
"It seems to be Yuan County."
Now it all fits!
Zheng Shuangling's face was extremely dark.
I used to use my connections to take advantage of others and ask them to help me rent a house.
At that time, she thought this girl was a smart person!
Fortunately, the two of them had no contact after that and were relatively peaceful.
If you think about it for a long time, you will forget it.
She didn't plan to pursue the matter any further.
But I didn’t expect that he was so ambitious!
It has been lying dormant for so long, and it turns out it was waiting here!
He is scheming, resourceful and powerful.
"sister in law?"
Minister Wang didn't hear any response for a long time, so he asked tentatively.
Zheng Shuangling came to his senses and suppressed the anger in his heart a little.
She understood her son's temper better than anyone else, and if she used force, it would only push him further away.
As for that woman, she has done it twice in a row, so she can be considered a resourceful person.
So this matter really can't be done openly!
Thinking of this, he softened his attitude: "Minister Wang, you know that what Lao Mu and I love most is our youngest son. He has been a good student since he was young, and he is sensible and obedient. In the future, we also hope that he can go higher and further and work hard to build the country, so we really shouldn't let these trivial matters delay his future."
"Sister-in-law, you mean..."
"You have to help me take care of it. There are some things and some people that we should avoid provoking if we can. If someone insists on provoking us, then we can't spoil them too much. What do you think?"
Minister Wang smiled suddenly and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I have watched the child grow up. He has a promising future and is capable. Such people should serve the country more and must not be affected by emotional problems. I know this."
"As expected of you, Minister Wang. I feel relieved when you say this. If there is anything, you must tell me."
"Don't worry, I'll let you know if anything happens."
After hanging up the phone, Zheng Shuangling's anger was slightly relieved.
…
On the island.
After finishing her classes at school, Lin Jiaojiao took some time to visit the Women's Federation and prepared to send the short stories she had excerpted to them for discussion.
But as soon as I walked into the corridor, I ran into two people who were arguing.
"Have you had enough of making trouble? Come back with me now!"
"Today I must find that bitch! If you don't feel guilty, why are you stopping me? Today I must let the Women's Federation take charge for me!"
Lin Jiaojiao recognized Sun Zhouyi, and the woman next to him was his wife. Lin Jiaojiao's eyes darkened and her tone became colder: "What are you arguing about? This is the office area, not a place for you to cause trouble."
Hearing the noise, the quarrel between the two stopped abruptly.
