Chapter 546 It was our little Factory Director Lu who settled that lawsuit.
However, Jiang Chusheng and Du Wanqing are under the jurisdiction of Qianjin Subdistrict Office, and Lin Xiazhi is naturally the most aware of this matter.
Those who work at the grassroots level or as mediators rarely speak in a pretentious or affected manner.
Lu Qiaoge also said, "I really didn't know about this, but I have confidence in Comrade Wei Xia, and my grandma always says that a good horse doesn't eat the grass it has already grazed."
Sister Lin nodded: "That's what I think too. If Wei Xia were to turn back, she would be really foolish."
Lu Qiaoge suddenly remembered something and said, "Isn't Du Wanqing pregnant? Can a woman get a divorce while she's pregnant?"
Sister Lin was taken aback. There seemed to be rules and regulations, right? Normally, as long as both parties agreed, who would care about these things?
Lu Qiaoge sincerely suggested, "Regardless of Du Wanqing's true nature, she is one of us women. If she breaks the law, the law will punish her. If she is morally corrupt, she will be judged by the moral court. But as ordinary people, we certainly have no right to treat her like that. Therefore, we must protect her when necessary, and this is her right."
Sister Lin stared at Lu Qiaoge in shock.
This girl is completely open and honest, not afraid of offending anyone, and she really says whatever she wants.
But upon closer reflection, Sister Lin realized that there was nothing wrong with what Lu Qiaoge said.
So he said, "I'll call Director Han this afternoon to remind the mediator to pay attention to Du Wanqing's pregnancy. We must treat every woman equally."
Lu Qiaoge smiled and nodded: "That's right, Sister Lin, you are really amazing."
Why did these two have to separate? Then Jiang Chusheng shamelessly harassed Wei Xia. Although Wei Xia won't turn back, why should Jiang Chusheng, who made a mistake, be able to get married and divorced as he pleases, and then walk away as if nothing happened?
There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
Many people pay the price for their mistakes, and Jiang Chusheng should be no exception.
Lin Xiazhi felt like she had grasped a little bit of the trick.
This approach can also be used for grassroots work.
Lu Qiaoge said, "After we take a walk around, we'll be on the way to the food factory. Just come to my office and make a call."
Sister Lin readily agreed.
The two walked along until they arrived at Mrs. Li's house, the house where Tao Tao had taken the gold ring. Next door was where Fan Xiaoyu and Qi Shuang lived.
It was rush hour for people to go to work and school, so the neighborhood was much quieter.
However, as they got closer, they heard a commotion coming from Mrs. Li's house.
Lu Qiaoge and Sister Lin exchanged a glance, then hurriedly walked in that direction.
As we got closer, we heard Old Mrs. Li's loud voice: "...It's none of your business if I want to. That Cui Min is such a troublemaker. Why do I have to bow down to her? Do I owe her or not? What, does she think she's so great just because she has a brother who's a team leader? No matter how capable that Jin guy is, I won't ask him for favors, and I can't benefit from his influence."
Besides, what's wrong with giving my youngest son a son while I'm still young? What use is a girl? That Cui Min has a terrible temper. She snapped back at me the moment I opened my mouth. She said something like, "If you want to have a child, go ahead and have one. She's my daughter-in-law. How can she talk like that?" I slapped her, and that was the least of my worries. If it were in the past, I could have beaten her to death and no one would have dared to say a word..."
Another elderly woman seemed to be the persuader, but she appeared to be acting strangely at this moment.
It seems their patience has run out and they can't hold back any longer.
"Cui Min has such a bad temper. She apologized to you and said it was unintentional, just a slip of the tongue. But what about you? You kept hitting and cursing, insisting that your son divorce Cui Min. There are thousands of people here, and you're the laziest and gluttonous one. Sure, you gave your job to your youngest son and retired early, but you're not seventy or eighty years old. You gave your job to your youngest son, but you didn't give it to your daughter-in-law. You act like an ancestor every day. You don't get up until you've had enough sleep, and you don't come home until you've had enough fun. Cui Min has to make breakfast for you and keep it warm in the pot. She also has to rush back to cook lunch for you."
Manman is five years old this year. When she was little, you took care of her for a month, but she was always in pain. You had to take care of her and accompany her to the hospital. Manman was raised by Cui Min's aunt. If you were fair, it would be fine, but you are biased. Logically speaking, since you and your two sons lived together before the family separated, it would be fine if you didn't do housework. You are lucky to be an old lady, but shouldn't the housework be shared by both daughters-in-law?
You, I don't know if you're afraid of your eldest daughter-in-law or if she has some leverage over you, you always favor your eldest daughter-in-law. Whenever it's her turn to cook or do housework, you find an excuse to send her away, and then Cui Min basically has to do all the housework. What has Cui Min said all these years? Think about it honestly. Last year, around this time last year, your gold ring was stolen by Yanzi. It was our factory director, Mr. Lu, who settled the case. Why didn't you suspect your eldest daughter-in-law then, but instead suspected your younger daughter-in-law?
In the end, you're no better than anyone else, lazy and greedy. Having you as a mother-in-law is the worst luck imaginable. And you're even pressuring Li Zhenhui to divorce his wife? What, you think your son can find someone better than Cui Min? Let me tell you, Old Lady Deng, divorce is divorce! Anyone who doesn't is a coward. But let me make this clear: with me, Big Iron Spoon, around, I'll ruin every single woman Li Zhenhui dates. Let's see who dares to marry your son then, because they'll force me to…”
Before she could finish speaking, the old woman, who called herself Big Iron Spoon, suddenly brightened up and exclaimed, "Oh my, it's like a fairy has appeared! Director Lu, it really is you! Oh, are you just passing by or what? Why don't you continue being a mediator? It would be so much better if you stayed at the neighborhood office. Look at this old Mrs. Li, bullying her daughter-in-law and forcing them to divorce. I don't know how much of what I just said you heard, but I guarantee it's all true. You have to stand up for Cui Min!"
Old Mrs. Li was furious with the big iron spoon, but when she saw Lu Qiaoge, she felt her scalp tingle. She really didn't want to see this brat at all.
Lu Qiaoge glanced at the old Mrs. Li, who had turned her head away; in truth, she didn't really want to see her either.
This old lady, well, she's not actually that old.
But she likes to rely on her age and can eat and drink well, and can still wander around and play, but she gets sore all over when she does any housework.
But it can't be said to be wrong.
It's unfair that the elderly, who have worked hard all their lives, have to suffer in their old age.
But every family has its own problems.
If no one comes looking for you, just close the door and live your own life; the neighborhood committee can't interfere.
Lu Qiaoge stepped forward and greeted Da Tieshao with a smile: "It's Grandma Jin! You have such a loud voice!"
Sister Lin followed behind, her eyes narrowed. Why didn't Lu Qiaoge ask what was going on before greeting this old lady so warmly? Wasn't that a bit inappropriate?
Didn't you see that old Mrs. Li's face darken?
