Wei Shuqing gave Zhao Dahu a serious analysis, which left him even more bewildered. "Is Wang Yanda's boss seriously ill? It's as clear as day! Even if Qi Zhifang and the Qi family didn't participate in the forgery, she still spent money! Shouldn't she be considered an accomplice in fraud? At the very least, she can't escape the charge of hooliganism. She can't fake being pregnant, can she?" The more she talked, the more something seemed off. Even ordinary people like them didn't believe Qi Zhifang was innocent, so how could the police and leaders believe her? The problem was, he really couldn't investigate this! Then, he suddenly realized and slapped his thigh, saying, "I know! He's having an affair with Qi Zhifang..."
Wei Shuqing smacked him on the head, angrily saying, "Don't you know how to keep your mouth shut?!" Then she thought about it again and realized Zhao Dahu wasn't wrong. Could it be that he already had that intention? Otherwise, how could he just give up a stable office job like that? Sure enough, the world is complicated and the situation is unpredictable; their circle plays too many tricks.
Then, he tentatively asked Zhao Dahu, "Dahu, let me ask you something. If Qi Zhifang really gets close to someone powerful and influential, and then wants to take revenge on me, won't that implicate you?"
Zhao Dahu hadn't quite grasped the situation yet, and asked, "What revenge are you talking about? It wasn't you who made her commit adultery and commit crimes, so what does it have to do with you!"
Wei Shuqing hesitated and said, "In his eyes, I have always been a peasant, an uncultured and vulgar person. Now that he has found out that I work in the Women's Federation and has seen his miserable state, I am afraid that he will take revenge on us in the future."
Seeing his wife's cautious demeanor, Wei Shuqing suddenly realized her worries. He was furious and snapped, "Shuqing, you're a working-class person, for goodness' sake! Even if you could get close to her, would she make things difficult for someone like you who works at the Women's Federation? Would she make things difficult for me, the head chef? She's insane! She's an uncultured, vulgar person. We may be uncultured, but we know we have some sense of shame. She's educated, but she has absolutely no shame, she's a heartless scoundrel. And you still care about her? That's giving her a huge slap on the wrist!"
When Zhao Dahu mentioned it, Wei Shuqing felt half relieved and said with a steamed bun, "Hurry up and eat! You've been working hard all morning."
After the two finished their meal, Wei Shuqing took the hot tea that Zhao Dahu brought her, drank it, and then headed to her office when she saw that it was almost time. She carefully recalled the strange book and thought about how Li Maocai was described in it as a love-struck man who would have a stroke from being with another man and still couldn't let go of Qi Zhifang. She was still a little worried.
When I got back to the office and Sister Li told me the results, as expected, Qi Zhifang kept her job, but not in the labor protection department; she was transferred to the archives. There, she basically doesn't come into contact with anyone, which is essentially isolating her.
Xiao Hu took Qi Zhifang's lover away, and before leaving, he even helped Qi Zhifang clear her name in front of the leaders. Wei Shuqing was helpless. One can only sigh at Qi Zhifang's good fortune! No matter how much she tries to cause trouble, she can't seem to get away with it!
Given Qi Zhifang's personality, even if he originally had no feelings for Xiao Hu, if Xiao Hu's lover made a scene, he would probably stir up trouble, even if he wasn't fishing. He's the kind of person who only does things that harm others without benefiting himself, and his thought process is abnormal.
Sister Li, sleeves rolled up, said angrily, "I'm so angry! Why are all men like this? They only like those pretentious, slutty women. You didn't see Qi Zhifang's pathetic face. I wanted to slap her a few times. And Xiao Hu is no better. Huaihua was crying so much, how could he have the nerve to give up the job opportunity that her father found for his daughter to that little slut?"
Sister Liu covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "Sigh, I was just saying, and you just took it as a joke. That kind of lie full of loopholes can't even fool us, let alone that Leader Xiao. Isn't this a joke? I think the two of them are probably interested in each other. Who told you to have a female hooligan here who knows how to seduce people! Keep an eye on your husband, Lao Yang, or the atmosphere in this factory will be ruined."
Sister Li sneered, "He dares to mess with me, I'll make him regret ever being human! I'm so angry, how can their family be so shameless? Wei Shuqing must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to be associated with that family."
Sister Liu thought of the key to the problem and said with doubt, "That's not right. Qi Zhifang's case is quite serious. Even if he had nothing to do with the counterfeit tickets, he was still guilty of hooliganism. But how did he manage to get out of the police station like that? Who was the mastermind behind this?"
Sister Li snorted and said, "What expert? He's my uncle's brother, Qi Zhijun's boss. Because a brother unit in Hebei needed to drill wells in the townships and villages, they were short of a technician or something. That place is hard and tiring, and the pay isn't high. No one from the design institute would be willing to go there. As a result, Qi Zhijun ran into trouble. My cousin thought that since someone had to do the work anyway, he might as well sell him out. That's how it happened, right? They got him out."
Sister Liu was taken aback and said, "Your cousin is really something, getting involved in even this kind of thing..."
Sister Li exclaimed, "Don't even mention it! I'm so regretful for getting involved in this mess. A couple of months ago, when we were eating out, do you know what my cousin said? The counterfeiter gave her hundreds of kilograms of grain coupons, so many receipts, 1300 yuan in cash alone! And guess what? In less than four months, she only had 580 yuan left! The coupons were all gone, she was completely broke, nothing at all! Qi Zhifang lives with her mother, brother, and sister-in-law. That family is truly gluttonous! Before, I didn't believe the rumors, thinking, 'How could a woman spend money like that?' But this..." "When I looked, oh my god, guess what? It's all inherited. Qi Zhifang's mother is terrible at managing money. All that money was gone in less than four months, and the whole family squandered it. In the end, poor Qi Zhijun is still carrying a debt of 980 yuan, deducted from his salary at work. My cousin said that Qi Zhijun has only been married for less than two months, and now he only gets ten yuan a month, barely enough to support himself. He also has to work in another city and live apart from his wife. It'll take five years to pay it off. What woman could endure that? It's a tragedy! The Qi family is utterly inhuman."
Sister Liu and Sister Li looked at Wei Shuqing with sympathy and said, "Little Wei, their family really spends money that much!"
Wei Shuqing gave an awkward smile and said, "Back then, I handed over 36 yuan a month, Qi Zhijun 28 yuan a month, and the old man of the Qi family received 10 yuan a month in living allowance. Anyway, we were broke every month! There was no surplus food in the family!"
Sister Liu took a deep breath, swallowed hard, and said, "My God, you didn't save any of this money? Or did you just not know?"
Wei Shuqing shook her head. "Back then, Qi Zhifang bought several pieces of clothing every month, and used only the best ones. Her salary wasn't even enough to cover her own expenses. I don't know how much the old lady of the Qi family subsidized her each month. She wanted to eat and use the best things, and she would bring her three children to our house for meals every day. With so many people, there was a lot to eat. Old Master Qi also had to take medicine every month. Anyway, all sorts of things were spent. It's no fun talking about their family anymore!"
Sister Liu nodded and said, "Your cousin is right, she doesn't know how to manage a household! I heard she even angered her father to death, and she can still act like nothing happened and flaunt it everywhere. She's really heartless."
Sister Li snorted and said, "I'll talk to the people in the finance department and the inspection team. They'll find something to do to her. Otherwise, I won't feel comfortable letting her only get 23 yuan a month!"
Wei Shuqing is now in an even worse mood. Qi Zhijun's boss has the ability to get Qi Zhifang out of the police station. His surname is Li. Isn't this person Li Maocai?
However, judging from Sister Li's tone, it seems she's not interested in Qi Zhifang, but who can say for sure when it comes to matters of the heart!
