"Let's eat."
Jiang Yue urged.
Huang Ru went to the logistics department and said that this was her niece, who was also Jiang Yue's classmate. She had come to the art troupe to look for work and wanted to stay in the family compound for a few days.
With Huang Ru involved, things naturally fell into place.
Qin Xiang expressed her gratitude in various ways and almost knelt down before Huang Ru.
"Auntie, you're so good to me."
Huang Ru looked at Qin Xiang with a smile and said.
"My daughter is about your age. She's studying away from home now. Looking at you is like seeing my daughter..."
Qin Xiang looked at Huang Ru with tears in her eyes.
After talking for a while, Huang Ru asked about Qin Xiang and Jiang Yue.
"Were you classmates with Comrade Jiang? In junior high or high school?"
Qin Xiang wiped away her tears and said.
"They were high school classmates."
Huang Ru's gaze toward Qin Xiang became even more amiable.
"I didn't expect you to be such a high achiever, Xiao Qin."
Qin Xiang pretended to be shy and said.
"Auntie is too kind."
Seeing Huang Ru looking at her again, Qin Xiang understood that Huang Ru wanted to hear about Jiang Yue from her.
"Jiang Yue's family is from Beijing, and they are very well-off."
Qin Xiang only knew that Jiang Yue's family lived in the compound, but she didn't know who Jiang Yue's parents were. She had asked Jiang Yue about it, but Jiang Yue didn't tell her.
Qin Xiang thought Jiang Yue was too hypocritical back then. If she really considered her her best friend, she should have told her everything. Little did she know that Jiang Yue had been taught by her family since childhood to be humble in public and not to reveal her family's situation.
Qin Xiang knew that Jiang Yue's family was wealthy, but she didn't know what they did for a living.
"Your family is very well-off?" Huang Ru frowned. "How so?"
"I heard someone in her family drives a car. And an uncle gives her money, hundreds of yuan at a time..."
It's true that he drives a car; it's his third uncle, Jiang Sen's, car. His third uncle now runs a company that deals with foreigners and helps the country earn foreign exchange...
However, Qin Xiang was unaware of this and assumed that her uncle was a capitalist.
Huang Ru was extremely surprised when she heard this.
They can casually hand over hundreds of dollars. Besides capitalists, who else has such power?
"Is her family capitalists?"
Upon hearing Huang Ru's words, Qin Xiang's face showed a look of horror. She shook her head but did not deny it.
"I have no idea."
"Don't be afraid, your aunt won't tell anyone."
Huang Ru then inquired about the work of the cultural troupe.
What's the story behind Jiang Yue's work at the performing arts troupe?
"She said she was coming to get a divorce from Battalion Commander Lu, and even offered me a job in the cultural troupe... I thought it was true, so I came with her. But then she abandoned me on the train..."
Recalling the painful experiences of those days, Qin Xiang burst into tears again.
Ask Battalion Commander Lu for a divorce? Give the job in the cultural troupe to Qin Xiang?
Huang Ruxin was overjoyed, but deliberately kept a straight face and said...
"Are what you're saying true or false? If you're lying, your auntie will send you to the farm for some education..."
Upon hearing Huang Ru's words, Qin Xiang was so frightened that she quickly shook her head.
"I would never lie, Auntie, you have to believe me..."
For some reason, Qin Xiang felt that Jiang Yue's attitude towards her was completely different from before. Now, she wouldn't even let her live with her. Although she was thinking of coaxing Jiang Yue, she also felt that this leader's wife seemed very powerful. She thought that if she flattered and fawned over her, she might be able to deal with Jiang Yue.
