Chapter 465: Labor Reform from Three to Nine
Lin Qingqing could hear the sound of Lin's mother scolding in the front yard.
"Anyone who marries you will be unlucky for the rest of their lives. It's not easy for a man to achieve a high position through military merit, but you've ruined it all."
Mother Lin clapped her hands and turned to ask her sister-in-law behind her: "Do you all know the family of the division commander, oh, no, the family of the brigade commander? Why do you have to make things difficult for our Qingqing?"
The sisters-in-law all shook their heads in agreement.
Lin's mother said in a hoarse voice, "It was just a few days ago when we traded houses. Now that we haven't, she's holding a grudge and is playing dirty tricks behind my back. Do you think she's really that serious? These are all state-owned assets. What does Xiong Liwen have to do with them?"
"Oh, now it's too late. Let's put it in black and white. You've lost your job and will have to serve three days of forced labor. That's why people should not do bad things, or they will suffer retribution. Xiong Liwen, your retribution has come!"
As she spoke, she knocked on the door again.
The knock on the door was like a death warrant, hitting Xiong Liwen's heart.
Xiong Liwen was in the room, crying like a monster.
She never imagined that she would be punished like this just because she said a few bad words about others and told the truth in front of the investigation team.
Labor reform!
What a day that was!
Xiong Liwen completely collapsed.
She rushed to the gate and opened it, her face swollen with tears and her eyes red, and she screamed, "I just told you a few truths. Wasn't that whole truckload of furniture real? Everyone saw it. And she, Lin Qingqing, came to the compound to join the army and actually brought her cousin to work with her. She even asked her cousin to help her farm such a small plot of land. What else can she do but enjoy herself?"
When Lin's mother saw that the person had finally come out, she heard Xiong Liwen spit out a mouthful of shit.
She came up and slapped him twice.
Two loud slaps exploded in the air.
"Pah pah~"
Xiong Liwen was knocked to the ground.
Mother Lin wiped the tears and snot from her hands with the corner of her clothes.
She put her hands on her hips and glared at Xiong Liwen, saying, "My son-in-law gave my daughter money to buy furniture. Was it your family's money? You can be jealous if you want, but what excuses do you have? I asked my niece to come with me to the army to take care of my daughter. Even this is not enough for me! My daughter has never lifted a finger since she was little. We don't even let her go to the ground. We raise her very carefully. I feel sorry for her suffering in the army, but we are willing to spoil her. How can this affect you? You are so cruel, and you don't want to admit it."
"Bah, you evil thing."
Zhang Xiaoli, who was standing behind Lin's mother, also covered her mouth and laughed. "Yeah, that's really unusual. Team Leader Song used his own allowance to buy a whole truckload of furniture for his wife, and people are talking about it. If my man was willing to give all his allowance to me, I'd be so happy, don't you think?"
A sister-in-law chimed in, "She's happy when her man is willing to give her money. Besides, Qingqing was spoiled by her family before, and now Team Leader Song is even more willing to spoil her. He hasn't said anything about what others say. He's really meddling in other people's business. Ultimately, he has a problem with his thinking."
Xiuhong: "Yes, there are ideological problems. Brigade Commander Li's family still doesn't think they have any problems. I think three years of forced labor is too light a sentence."
Hong Xi: "Yes, if you have a problem with your thinking, you're not fit to be a military dependent. Qingqing has over 70,000 yuan, which the army gave her openly. If Qingqing really wanted material comforts, couldn't she eat meat every day? Couldn't she wear plain clothes every day? There's nothing she can't buy. She could even buy seven watches and wear a different one every week."
Lin Qingqing, who was sitting in the front row, was drinking tea from a cup. When she heard this, she almost spit out the tea in her mouth from laughing.
"Yeah~"
"Yeah~"
The sisters-in-law who were watching the show nodded repeatedly.
If they had 70,000 yuan, and this money had nothing to do with their own family and their in-laws, they would buy whatever they wanted, not to mention seven watches and wear a different one every week.
They have to buy around thirty watches and wear them all over the place every month.
You have to buy the best quality fabric, wear a cotton-padded jacket, and eat chicken, duck, fish and meat all the time... It's so beautiful just thinking about it.
Chen Qiuchan took over the conversation and said sternly, "But Qingqing often dresses the same as us, sometimes even worse than us, and eats the same as us, just a little more elaborate at best. And yet she's still being envied. I really feel so sorry for Qingqing."
Having said that, the sisters-in-law also pondered these words carefully. They put themselves in his shoes and thought that if they were in his shoes, with so much money and such a high-ranking military position, they might even be floating on the sky.
Qingqing is able to keep calm and her words and actions are just like an ordinary person, so she is able to become a major general. They don't have this kind of thinking and insight.
