Chapter 103: Unyielding (5th update) Girls should be like this, docile and only...
It's a midsummer night, the air is stuffy and it might rain tonight.
Yao Zhizhi sat in the sidecar of a scooter and suddenly wanted to learn how to drive.
It must be great to drive by yourself. Look at how comfortable my mother-in-law looks, facing the wind and feeling free.
In the world, freedom is the most valuable thing.
Just like her, she chose to marry a sickly man, actually for freedom, for the freedom from being coerced, for the freedom from being weighed down by others.
The one you choose yourself is completely different from the one you are forced to marry out of disgust.
Maybe they all have to have children and work hard to make a living.
However, the former have the determination and courage to stick together even when they encounter setbacks; while the latter probably don’t even have autonomy, so what’s the point of talking about solidarity and determination?
After all, humans are not animals. Giving up dignity means giving up humanity and degrading oneself to the level of animals.
She was very pleased that Yao Mengmeng not only learned to embrace dignity, but also learned to help other girls and fight for dignity.
Girls should be like this. Only by being unyielding can they have the possibility of independence. Being docile will only lead to destruction.
Arriving at the sugar factory dormitory, Yao Zhizhi had a bold idea: compiling a women's magazine! Even if the conditions weren't ripe yet, she could still pay attention and prepare in advance.
As for why it is not mature, it is actually easy to understand. The current salary level is not enough to support this grand ideal.
Especially those married women, even if they have a salary, the first thing they think of is their children and family. They are willing to buy magazines for their children, but what about buying them for themselves?
He would definitely think and calculate over and over again, and finally hold on to the few cents in his pocket and turn away.
This is the collective portrait of most good wives and mothers. Yao Zhizhi can see such women on the way to work every day.
Some people hesitate for a long time even when buying a hairband they like, let alone buying face cream.
This made her think of the box of perfume powder Qi Changxiao gave her. From the very beginning, he wanted her to be a person who pleases herself, rather than someone who pleases others.
Maybe it was his mother-in-law who gave her the passbook?
She hadn't asked in such a long time.
In fact, it doesn’t matter anymore. It doesn’t matter whether it’s given by him or by his mother-in-law, it’s all the same because they have long been an inseparable family.
But she knew that there were many mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law scheming against each other, and many resentful couples trying to sabotage each other.
So, let's wait a little longer, until the economy develops, until women truly have the soil for autonomy and control economic power.
Now, let’s solve the current problem first.
She jumped out of the car.
Looking around, the employees of the sugar factory were all in high spirits and excited about the scandal in the factory director's family.
If this is true, then the nature of it is extremely bad. If things go wrong, the factory director may have to be replaced. Naturally, some people are ready to make moves and add fuel to the fire.
As soon as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Tang Fengyuan and Yao Zhizhi arrived, the crowd looked over.
At the same time, the alarm for eating melons sounded. This Director Zhao, who looked like a decent man, actually had an illegitimate child in the countryside. However, this had nothing to do with today's events, so Yao Zhizhi ignored it for the time being.
Director Zhao seemed to have seen a savior and cried, "Director Tang, you have to make the decision for me! I'm just helping a friend's child find a partner. Why would I ask his parents to do that? It won't benefit me!"
Zhao Maimiao also cried, "Auntie Police, we have to be reasonable. It's corn harvest time now. If I lose a day's work points, I'll be scolded and beaten countless times. Why should I come all the way here to accuse him? It's clearly his own excuse!"
Tang Fengyuan waved his hand: "Everyone, be quiet. Come, let's sort out the whole story, and then we can talk about other things."
Director Zhao was more than happy to do so. After all, he had only asked someone to pass on a message; he hadn't asked anyone to drug anyone!
Quickly make some excuses like this.
Tang Fengyuan asked Xiao Jin to write it down, then turned and looked at Zhao Maimiao calmly: "Your opinion! Come on."
Zhao Maimiao is a straightforward person and doesn't beat around the bush, but she remembers the words Li Jing taught her - she insisted that her parents were not like that normally, and they only harmed her after the matchmaker came.
As for what Director Zhao asked his friend to say, there is no way to argue.
Even if we call that friend over for confrontation, it won't prove that Zhao Maimiao is lying.
Therefore, her statement basically coincides with Director Zhao's, with the key point being "not usually...but only after coming here..."
After listening to both sides' statements, Tang Fengyuan asked a crucial question: "Did Director Zhao confess the matter of Ding Huowa to Mai Miao's parents?"
"What do you want to confess?" Director Zhao smelled something bad. When it comes to matchmaking, don't you always say nice things?
Could it be that...
Before he could speak, Tang Fengyuan looked at Zhao Maimiao and said, "You still don't know what good things Ding Huowa has done, right?"
Zhao Maimiao was confused: "I don't know. Did he do anything illegal?"
Tang Fengyuan looked at Director Zhao again and said, "I'm asking you this question. Isn't this child your distant relative's? Why didn't you tell me such a crucial thing?"
Now all the employees in the factory understood that Director Zhao was harming people!
Some upright people immediately started pointing fingers.
"Director Zhao, you are too wicked, aren't you? Even if the Ding family's parents have done you a favor, you can't ruin another girl's life!"
"That's right, Director Zhao! None of the matchmakers in our city are willing to matchmake Ding Huowa! If he were a good guy, wouldn't the matchmakers be fighting over him?"
"Director Zhao, you're going too far. If you really want to repay my kindness, you can just marry Ding Huowa yourself. What's the point of harming a girl?"
Director Zhao was depressed and had to quickly make amends: "I asked my friend to go, but maybe he forgot to tell me."
"Then call your friend over and confront him face to face!"
"Yes, face to face!"
The family members were outraged. If Director Zhao could treat his own relatives' children like this, he could also treat them like this!
I can't stand it anymore, I have to figure it out!
Tang Fengyuan raised his hand again: "Who is your friend?"
Director Zhao said a name, and Yao Zhizhi suddenly looked at Director Zhao. Who?
Isn’t this the suspect from the railway department?
Director Zhao actually has dealings with such a person?
Haha, it seems that making such a fuss today is really helping the people get rid of harm!
Although Tang Fengyuan was a police officer, she also needed to cooperate with the criminal police team in collecting clues. She was also very wary of this name. She looked at Yao Zhizhi and said calmly, "Come on, does anyone know this Dispatcher Chen? Xiao Jin, you go with us and invite him over."
Xiao Jin quickly handed the workbook and pen to Tang Fengyuan, and looked at the bag behind him eagerly: "Director, can I open this mother?"
"Okay, be careful." Tang Fengyuan gave the key to Xiao Jin. A man in his forties stepped forward and offered to accompany him.
As soon as the person left, Director Zhao realized that something was wrong. He thought about it and wanted to make one last attempt.
So he looked at Yao Zhizhi angrily: "Director Tang, what do you mean by being so aggressive? Are all the people in your family good people? Your daughter-in-law took advantage of her position to get her so-called second uncle to work as a security guard at the publishing house. Is she a good person? Everyone knows that my father is doing a good job there. By doing this, isn't she trying to force him to leave? Do you want to intervene in this matter?"
Yao Zhizhi hadn't expected this person to be able to bring this person down on her. She laughed, "Director Zhao, you're mistaken, aren't you? My second uncle is retired. He just likes to chat and listen to the radio with your father. He doesn't get paid. If you don't believe me, you can go to the police station and ask them to check the accounting records at the publishing house. Otherwise, if my mother goes to the police, you'll still suspect her of covering up for him."
"What? No salary?" Director Zhao didn't know, and his father didn't say anything either.
Subconsciously, he looked at Uncle Zhao who had an angry look on his face.
Uncle Zhao was so angry at him that he almost died. What was this unfilial son doing?
Even if you get your salary, you shouldn't make a fuss. Xiao Yao has been here for a year and has generated so much income for the publishing house.
I heard that this year's New Year welfare will arrange some good things for everyone.
Now that this has happened, where can he find such a leisurely job to supplement his family income? I'm afraid he won't even get his New Year's benefits.
How stupid, how stupid!
It was also his fault that he didn't ask Xie Dayou for details. He only knew that Xie Dayou was there to help watch the door.
One wrong move and the whole game is lost!
Uncle Zhao was so angry that he almost fainted.
He had no choice but to hold on with his old bones and quickly apologize to Yao Zhizhi: "Editor-in-Chief Yao, my son is so anxious that he is confused! Don't argue with him! Ever since you came to the publishing house, those young people have smiled. You led them to publish magazines, and you went to the provincial capital to expand sales channels. You even had the ability to get orders from the capital. I, an old man, have seen all of this. You are a good comrade, you are a big man and don't care about the mistakes of small people-"
As he spoke, Uncle Zhao actually wanted to kneel down to Yao Zhizhi. Zhao Maimiao quickly helped him up and accused him, "How can you be so mean, old man! Do you think that by praising Editor Yao, you can offset the damage caused by your son's rumors? You still want to kneel down! You're threatening and forcing her! If she doesn't forgive you, you won't get up! You're so mean! I hate people like you who kneel at every turn. You're so mean!"
Uncle Zhao now had no idea what to do and could only shed tears silently.
Zhao Maimiao snorted coldly and let him go. "I don't know anything else, but I do know that when I came today, your son was slacking off, squatting at the factory gate smoking and chatting! Meanwhile, Director Ma of the steel plant was in the workshop personally instructing the new workers on the key points of safe production. It's obvious who's the good one and who's just slacking off! No wonder he's so anxious to use me as a favor! He's trying to win people over, huh? Your son is really clever!"
Director Zhao was so angry that he raised his hand to hit someone, but Zhao Maimiao grabbed his wrist and pushed him back.
Director Zhao stumbled and bumped into the wall behind him, shocked at the strength of this village girl. It was so great!
Not to mention him, I'm afraid Ding Huowa is not his match either.
If I really marry him, I don’t know what will happen!
Alas, it was all his fault for being too anxious and making a stupid move.
It's over now, completely over.
Especially when he saw Commander Chen getting out of the car, he felt that the situation was hopeless. A mouthful of blood rushed to his throat and he almost fainted from anger.
Tang Fengyuan looked at Chen Dispatcher calmly and asked a few questions.
Dispatcher Chen, still unaware of what was going on, said with a smile, "Why are you saying that? Every matchmaker tries to say the best things. What do you think, Director Tang? Otherwise, how did you get your wife?"
This is a mockery of Tang Fengyuan having a sickly child at home.
Before Tang Fengyuan could speak, Yao Zhizhi looked up because of the melon-eating alarm. It was indeed this man.
There are other murders on him!
Let’s talk about it later, let’s deal with the current matter first.
She sneered and said, "I'm sorry, but my mother-in-law asked me to be a matchmaker, but she clearly told me that her son might not live more than three years. I didn't want to be forced by my family to marry a divorced man, so my mother-in-law and I hit it off immediately. We each get what we want, so there's nothing shameful about it. What's wrong?"
"No, no. Director Tang is worthy of his name, he has a keen eye. Is your son in much better health now?" Dispatcher Chen did not expect that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would not play by the rules, so he had to say something nice to save the situation.
Tang Fengyuan smiled and said, "I have finished asking your questions. You can go back now. Thank you for your cooperation."
"You're welcome, Director Tang." Dispatcher Chen turned around with a smile and subconsciously glanced at the village girl next to Yao Zhizhi.
The look in his eyes was as if he was looking at a simple and gullible lamb.
Unfortunately, this lamb is a bit strong, so forget it.
Dispatcher Chen left quickly.
Tang Fengyuan stood up and said, "I believe everyone has understood what happened today. Justice is in the hearts of the people. Let's go back."
"Director Tang, what about Director Zhao's problem?"
Tang Fengyuan turned around and said, "The leadership will handle it. Everyone wait for the news."
"He will be fired!" Some people like to get to the bottom of things.
Tang Fengyuan couldn't guarantee it and could only answer that he didn't know.
It’s time for Yao Zhizhi to leave, but where will Zhao Maimiao sleep tonight?
She called Zhao Maimiao over and asked.
Zhao Maimiao smiled and said, "Sister Li Jing invited me. She has a spare bed at her house and will pick me up later."
"Okay, be diligent when you get to their house and help with some things. Remember to come to the publishing house to find me tomorrow." Yao Zhizhi was very pleased. It was quite good that Mai Miao knew how to interrupt Uncle Zhao's kneeling and coercion.
Now that this matter has become public, Uncle Zhao must not be able to stay. It would be nice if Zhao Maimiao could stay and work as a security guard.
But she is not sure whether the president will agree, so she will try tomorrow.
There is currently no precedent for hiring unmarried rural women in this city.
She felt it was very unfair!
We must try our best, even if it means talking to Director Yuan!
After getting on the car, she looked back at Zhao Maimiao. This name is really nice. She hopes that the wheat seedlings can grow into golden ears of wheat and usher in a bumper harvest in the golden autumn.
Soon, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left in a hurry.
On the way, Yao Zhizhi reflected on the problem with Chen's dispatch: "My system is quite active in eating melons, but it's a bit vague when it comes to homicides. It only gives keywords. At present, we only know that he is a serial killer. How many people were killed, who was killed, when, where, and why are they killed? We don't know."
"Go talk to your brother-in-law tomorrow and tell him about it." Tang Fengyuan felt that this matter was of great importance.
Yao Zhizhi had a headache: "But what should I say?"
"Yeah, how should I put it?" Tang Fengyuan also had a headache and thought about it.
Neither the mother-in-law nor the daughter-in-law had expected that the news about the sugar factory would spread so quickly, and Director Yuan found out that very evening.
Director Yuan is very angry!
A factory manager, smoking and loitering outside the factory gate during working hours, was even photographed by reporters! He also forced a relative's daughter to come to the factory and cry!
If this continues, how can we continue to produce and make progress?
Look at Director Ma, he immediately dealt with Ding’s parents and son. How decisive was that?
This is a role model!
The leadership team of Yicheng already has a bad reputation. He has worked hard for several months, and he can't let a single bad apple spoil the whole barrel!
Hurry up and deal with it seriously! Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!
The next morning, the decision on how to deal with the situation was made: Director Zhao was fired.
Uncle Zhao doesn't have to go anymore.
The bigwigs on both sides of the north and south were dumbfounded when they received the news.
Did Yao Zhizhi realize something? It hadn't been that long, and Lao Zhao was fired?
But... maybe it's a coincidence?
Fortunately, there is still Xiao Zhao!
Quickly find a way to ask Xiao Zhao if he has revealed his identity.
