Chapter 83 Fear
He was so angry. He had just gotten these banknotes and they were not even warm in his hands.
"Director Lu, it was all a misunderstanding. We were misled by someone with ulterior motives. We won't be so reckless in the future."
Although he was being polite, Zhou Dehai was actually thinking about how to get back today's losses from the Li family.
"In consideration of Director Zhou's sincerity, let's just let this matter go today."
Zhou Dehai left angrily with his men. As soon as he left the textile factory, Zhou Dehai became angry.
"How come you can't find it?"
"Brother Zhou, it's really placed on the bed." The short man said slyly.
"I guess she found it and might have it on her. I wanted to take her back and search her. But I failed!"
The man with glasses asked, "Brother Zhou, what is your attitude towards Director Lu..."
Isn’t he just the deputy director of a textile factory?
Although the textile factory is a provincial unit, he is just a deputy factory director, so there is no need to be so polite.
Even if you are the factory director, you have to be polite when meeting them.
"You know what? He's no ordinary man. His family background is so strong that it's like crushing an ant to death. Besides, he's been on the battlefield. He's a combat hero. He's seen blood."
"Anyway, don't mess with Jiang Haitang if you can. She has no grudge against us anyway."
The boy with glasses asked, "Brother Li's side..."
"It's his own fault for not having eyes to look at. He offended someone he shouldn't have offended. This time, he'll be skinned alive if he doesn't die."
Textile factory.
After these people left, Aunt Kong hurried to Jiang Haitang's house.
"I was really scared just now." Aunt Kong still feels scared when she thinks about it.
"Auntie, was it you who helped deliver the letter?"
"I was planning to send Little Peach to you, but when I got to the door, I noticed something was wrong, so I hurried home and asked Da Wa to deliver the letter."
Kong Shunan also came over and said, "I run very fast."
Lu Liangchen smiled and said, "Thank you, Shunan. If you hadn't run fast, something would have happened today."
After praising Kong Shunan, he said to Zhao Kai with a stern face, "This time it was your negligence in your work. From now on, you must strengthen the security work in the factory. This kind of thing must not happen again."
Zhao Kai also knew that it was caused by their negligence in work.
During this period, there were many problems in the factory, and the manpower was a bit behind schedule, resulting in some negligence.
"I understand. From today on, we will strengthen the security of the factory and will definitely not let something like this happen again."
"I'll report to the factory manager and try to add a few more people to your side."
Although it was caused by negligence in the work of the security department led by Zhao Kai, Lu Liangchen is not an unreasonable person, and the security department is indeed a little short of people.
"I'll go cook now. You'll have lunch here." Jiang Haitang said, seeing that it was getting late.
"We can just go to the cafeteria to eat. Sister-in-law, you can just cook for Director Lu." Zhao Kai quickly refused.
It’s better to let the captain and sister-in-law be alone, so they don’t stay here and act as light bulbs.
"There's nothing to eat in the cafeteria now, so just eat at home."
When Aunt Kong saw that Jiang Haitang was going to have so many people for dinner, she guessed that Jiang Haitang probably wouldn't be able to offer many dishes, so she hurriedly said, "I'll go get some leeks from the fields."
The old lady ran away without waiting for Jiang Haitang to speak.
After a while, the old lady came over with a basket. In the basket, besides a bunch of leeks, there were also eggplants, pumpkins, beans, loofahs and peppers.
"Thank you, Auntie. I was just worrying about not having enough food at home."
Jiang Haitang hurriedly thanked him, without stopping, using a spoon to press the pumpkin that had just come out of the pot.
"They are all grown in the yard. They are growing well these days. It would be a waste if we can't eat them."
The weather is getting colder. During this period, everyone dries the leftover vegetables into dried vegetables, so there is no waste at all.
"What are you planning to do for lunch? Why did you mash the pumpkin?" Aunt Kong asked curiously.
"It's not convenient to cook with so many people. I plan to make pumpkin pancakes, stir-fry two dishes, and make a soup. That'll be it."
"I've never seen pumpkin used to make hot pancakes. I'd like to take a look. I'll help you pick the vegetables, and you can make the pancakes quickly." Aunt Kong found a small stool and sat down to pick leeks.
Steamed buns are easy to make and taste good, the only downside is that they require a lot of oil.
Fortunately, Jiang Haitang and Lu Liangchen are both well-off, so they are not afraid of having a meal occasionally.
Jiang Haitang added the prepared flour into the mashed pumpkin and quickly stirred it evenly with chopsticks. Because there was not enough pumpkin, the flour was a little hard, so she continued to add boiling water and knead the flour.
The kneaded dough was golden yellow and looked delicious. Jiang Haitang heated oil in a pan, divided the dough into small pieces, rolled them into palm-sized slices about half a centimeter thick, and put them into the pan.
Soon, the first pot of pancakes came out of the oven, and Jiang Haitang picked one up and gave it to Aunt Kong.
"Auntie, please try it."
Aunt Kong's hands were covered in mud as she picked the vegetables, so she quickly declined, saying, "My hands are very clogged. I'll wash them later before trying them."
Jiang Haitang tore off a piece and fed it to Aunt Kong.
Aunt Kong was stunned for a moment before she opened her mouth and bit it.
After finishing a small piece of cake, the old lady smiled and said, "It tastes really good."
"It would be better if there was some glutinous rice flour."
"That's why I say you're so clever and skillful. You eat pumpkin all the time, but I didn't know it would be so delicious and sweet when baked into pancakes."
Not long after, Jiang Haitang finished baking the last pot of pancakes, and Aunt Kong had picked her vegetables.
"For lunch, I'll fry an egg and chives, and then an eggplant, and make some loofah soup. That's about it."
Jiang Haitang started to wash, cut and cook vegetables, her movements as smooth as flowing water.
After Lu Liangchen, Zhao Kai and others discussed some work matters, they came to the kitchen.
"Take these pancakes and soup out, and the dishes will be ready to eat soon."
Seeing that dinner was about to start, Aunt Kong finished her pancake and stood up to leave.
Jiang Haitang hurriedly brought over a large bowl, filled it with a dozen pumpkin cakes and handed it to Aunt Kong.
"Auntie, take these cakes back and let the children try them."
"That's impossible. You have so many young men at home."
Jiang Haitang said, "It's such a big bowl, enough to eat."
Aunt Kong then thanked her and left with the bowl in hand: "Xiao Taozi and Erni are playing. I'll take them directly to school later. You guys can go about your business."
Lu Liangchen watched the old lady walk away, then approached Jiang Haitang and asked distressedly, "Are you scared today?"
Jiang Haitang nodded: "A little bit, but after seeing you, I'm not afraid anymore. I know you will protect me."
Lu Liangchen hugged Jiang Haitang's waist and whispered, "It's my fault that I didn't protect you. It's a pity that you found out. I can't even imagine what would have happened if you hadn't discovered their frame-up in time."
He could guess what had happened, and he also guessed that the evidence these people didn't find must have been dealt with by Haitang.
He didn't dare to think that if Haitang hadn't discovered it in time, even if he showed up, he wouldn't be able to save Haitang.
Jiang Haitang originally wanted to push Lu Liangchen's arm away, but because of his low, self-blaming tone, Jiang Haitang let him hug her.
