Chapter 503 I’m here to discuss a business deal
It was inconvenient to live in the guesthouse, and Huang Ling was afraid that Zhang A'mei would come to make trouble, so she arranged for Wu Shanshan to live in a dormitory not far from the group office.
You can eat in Yuesheng’s employee cafeteria, which is very convenient for entering and exiting the city center. More importantly, the entire compound is occupied by group employees, and security personnel also live here, so it is very safe.
Several people entered the house together, and Wu Shanshan saw that the beds and daily necessities in the inner and outer rooms had been arranged.
Dongzhe, Wu Jun and Xiaoting were chatting in the outer room, while Huang Ling, Song Ying and Wu Shanshan were also chatting in the inner room.
Wu Jun was very envious when he learned that both of them were admitted to Fudan University. He said:
"My goal is Sun Yat-sen University anyway. It's close to home and I can take care of my sister there."
"Yes, just stay over there! Sister Shanshan is worried if you stay too far away." Dongzhe nodded.
"We and Brother Pengfei originally said that we would go to Guangzhou to play during the summer vacation, and now we get to meet him first." Xiaoting said that they had actually discussed this plan.
"Come and visit Guangzhou, it's a great place!" Wu Jun was very happy to hear that, while introducing all kinds of Guangzhou.
The two of them were so excited after hearing this that they couldn't wait to go during the winter vacation.
"Pengfei will be here tomorrow. Let him come over tomorrow and we will take you to Suihualou to eat delicious food." Dongzhe told Wu Jun again.
No one talked about Wu Jianguo.
In the inner room, Song Ying did not hide anything and told Wu Shanshan the whole situation.
Wu Shanshan sneered, "Haha, Xiaojun and I, our biological children, have been gone for three years, and he hasn't reacted at all. Now that his stepdaughter is nowhere to be found, he's so heartbroken and upset that he's committing suicide. How ironic!"
"The farewell ceremony will be in two days. Tell us what you need us to do when you have decided." Huang Ling felt relieved to see that she was calm.
"I understand, Auntie. I may have to go out to do some things these days. Xiaojun..."
"Don't worry, Dongzhe will stay with him these days even if I don't tell him." Song Ying glanced at the outer room and could hear the intimate conversation of three people in the outer room.
After chatting for a while, Huang Ling and the others left first. Dongzhe stayed with Xiaojun since he had nothing to do. He also said that he would stay with Xiaojun at night and be a bodyguard for Sister Shanshan. Xiaojun was of course happy to agree, and Song Ying had no objection. It would be a good idea for him to be a messenger.
Wu Shanshan packed up and went out. Wu Jun and Dongzhe wanted to follow her but were rejected.
She said she was not going back to the alley. She was from Suzhou and grew up in a cotton mill, so she would definitely not get lost. So the two of them had no choice but to go along with her.
Dongzhe took Wu Jun to Yuesheng and bought him a bunch of food.
"Brother, don't buy too much. If you spend more than you want, Sister Xiaoting will scold you." Wu Jun was shocked.
"No, I manage the money myself now, and she doesn't." Now he is a wealthy man with a lot of money.
"Do you want to claim the reimbursement?" Wu Jun asked again.
"Uh... I'm not afraid of using it on you. She even told me not to be stingy!"
Wu Jun felt relieved after Dongzhe said this.
Wu Jun happily ate all the snacks from his hometown and was very satisfied.
"Yue Sheng is really good. You can buy everything here. It's much better than the state-owned stores and even better than the department stores in Guangzhou. My sister said that Yue Sheng will open an office in Guangzhou in the future and asked me to learn how to do the work in a department store so that I can help out in the future.
During the summer vacation, I worked as a mover and sorter for a department store. My sister was able to calculate their sales volume and how much they earned based on the number of goods. She wrote it down, saying it would be useful in the future.
"Wow, Sister Shanshan really thinks long-term!" Dongzhe was full of admiration.
"She said I couldn't study every day and needed to exercise. I thought she wanted me to play ball, but I didn't expect... I ended up studying five days a week and doing hard labor for two days..." Wu Jun sighed lightly, with a look of deep resentment on his face.
"Sister Shanshan is really like Aunt Huang. She uses everything that can be used and no one of them is left idle." Dongzhe clicked his tongue.
"Well, I'd love to."
The two of them didn't stop talking the entire afternoon, either eating or talking.
Dongzhe observed Wu Jun from time to time. He couldn't tell whether Wu Jun was sad or not, or he didn't want others to know that he was sad.
Wu Shanshan ran to several places in a row.
I first went to the neighborhood committee to retrieve the household registration records and get a certificate of relationship.
Then she went to the factory office. Zhou Huailan was now one of the deputy directors of the factory office, so it was easy for her to suppress a funeral expense application.
Then she went to the home of the director of the logistics department. Before leaving work, the director of the logistics department received a call from his wife urging him to go home. He was very excited. When he got home, he saw Wu Shanshan.
She just said that she was just suppressing it, not not issuing it, until she brought all the documents to apply for funeral expenses.
The task was not difficult, but the director of the logistics department remembered his wife's excited voice just now and knew that his gains far outweighed the effort, so he nodded.
At the same time, he also knew that if he didn't do it, there would be big problems.
Because Huang Ling had come to him in person yesterday and casually asked about Wu Jianguo's funeral arrangements, but mentioned Wu Shanshan several times. He was wondering at the time, hadn't Wu Shanshan left home for several years? Could she come back? As a result, Wu Shanshan came to his house today.
Finally, Wu Shanshan went to her uncle's house.
I listened at the door and there was still laughter and joy in the house, without a trace of sadness.
Uncle Wu Jianmao's son Wu Shunda came to open the door, but when he saw the elegant and fashionable young woman outside the door, he didn't recognize her.
Until Wu Shanshan said, "I am Wu Shanshan."
Wu Shunda blinked doubtfully before recognizing her and confirming, "Wu Shanshan"
Wu Shanshan held up the two large gift boxes in her hands in front of Wu Shunda.
Wu Shunda knew at first glance that it was the high-end dim sum from Suihualou that could not be bought even after queuing up, so he hurriedly took it.
It made sense when I thought about it. She must have rushed back to attend the funeral after receiving the news of Wu Jianguo's death, but I didn't expect her to come to my house.
Although the two families were brothers, they did not interact much in normal times because Wu Jianmao, the eldest brother, occupied the family house on the pretext of supporting his parents and squeezed out his younger brother's family.
The main reason why he did this was because Wu Shanshan's mother had been ill for a long time, and it was a lung problem. Everyone in the family, from grandparents to Wu Shanshan's cousins, called them "tuberculosis ghosts" and called Wu Shanshan and her siblings "little tuberculosis patients."
Later, Wu Jianguo went to work in a cotton mill and moved out with his family. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Wu Shanshan's mother died of illness. Not long after, Wu Jianguo married Zhang A'mei.
After Zhang A-mei came into the family, the two families visited each other for a while. The eldest brother thought about taking turns to support the elderly or taking care of one each, but Zhang A-mei strongly opposed it, and the situation became very unpleasant.
In the end, Wu Jianguo could only pay some money every year to visit the doctor a few times, and he never visited him much again.
Until last year, when his mother fell seriously ill, Wu Jianmao saw that it would cost a lot of money, so he found Wu Jianguo and asked him to pay half so that Zhang A'mei could go to the hospital to take care of her.
As a result, Zhang A-mei made another big fuss, which was too big and she was not in the right. The people from the neighborhood committee came and scolded her severely before she reluctantly agreed to pay. She said that taking care of the child was impossible and she didn't even go to see him.
"Wu Shanshan is here." Wu Shunda came in and told his family, and showed them the things.
The whole family stared at Wu Shanshan for a long time, but they couldn't connect the fashionable girl in front of them with the skinny little girl from the second son's family.
When this woman walked on the street, they didn't dare to recognize her because they could tell at a glance that she was not from the same world as them. They couldn't earn enough money to buy the pair of leather shoes on her feet even if they worked in a month.
Wu Shanshan didn't call anyone in the room. She found a chair and sat down, then said coldly:
"I'm here to discuss business with you."
