Since the grain station closed, the food supply at the machinery factory has been limited, and each worker can only buy a limited amount.
They felt like they hadn't eaten so happily in a long time.
"Sister-in-law, can we eat this tomorrow?"
In order to eat the food in one bite, He Kun tried his best to make Ruan Tang happy.
Before Ruan Tang could agree, Ji Nanfeng kicked her away. "I finally married a wife, not to be your cook. You can eat whatever your sister-in-law cooks. You don't have to eat in the cafeteria."
He Kun didn't dare to speak again, thinking about going to the state-owned store to buy something to reward his sister-in-law next time.
Ji Rong opened the door and was about to wash the dishes when he saw a few people going up to the fourth floor.
"Third sister-in-law, is there something wrong next door again? Gao Yuren from the factory office has brought people to the fourth floor."
When He Kun heard this, he hurried over to join in the fun.
Ruan Tang heard there was something exciting going on and went to the door. She had been watching Sister Xu at the black market today and was curious about what was going on, but she hadn't expected the factory manager to act so quickly.
Ruan Tang looked eagerly at Gao Yuren, the leader, as he walked past Sister Xu's house and stood at her door.
Ruan Tang blinked belatedly, so Gao Yuren was coming to her house?
It's really unbelievable that you are watching the fun and then end up hurting yourself.
Gao Yuren smiled warmly and politely, "Master Ruan, shall we go inside and talk?"
Ruan Tang stepped aside to let Gao Yuren into the room. "Gao Yuren, please sit down. I'll pour you a glass of water."
Gao Yuren refused, "Don't worry, I came here today because I have official business to attend to."
"Our factory office received a report from the public that Master Ruan, as a worker in the machinery factory, received a high-level salary, but spent very little time in the factory. This month, he was not at the factory for more than half of the time!"
"You're even late and leave early. Other workers toil away for the machinery factory, while you're buying vegetables and meat. You're setting a very bad example for the factory."
"According to the factory office's investigation, Hu Dazhi, who was very close to Master Ruan, has also been on leave for the past few days."
Gao Yuren glanced at Ji Ji Nanfeng, who chuckled softly, "I have a problem too?"
Gao Yuren shook his head. "For now, the factory office has only accepted the report against Master Ruan. To stabilize public sentiment, the factory office has decided to suspend Comrade Ruan Tang from work and without pay. After the investigation is complete, the punishment for Comrade Ruan Tang will be announced to everyone."
Gao Yuren solemnly took out a document with the factory office's red seal on it.
Ruan Tang kindly reminded them, "Does Director Yang know about this? Does the Secretary know? Does the Deputy Director know?"
Gao Yuren frowned unhappily when he heard Ruan Tang bring up these leaders to pressure him. "The leaders are busy. Small matters like this are usually investigated and handled by our factory office. The final results will be handed to the leaders for their signatures."
Ruan Tang didn't want to waste time talking to Gao Yuren and accepted the suspension notice. "I humbly accept the public investigation and wait for the final results to clear my name."
After saying this, he sent the factory manager out.
After the others left, Ji Rong and He Kun became anxious and suggested that they should go to the leaders to plead for mercy.
Ji Nanfeng told the two not to worry. "Nothing will happen. Director Yang personally brought the leaders to ask Ruan Tang to go to the maintenance department to help out. What they signed was a part-time agreement. It clearly stated that Ruan Tang would arrange the working hours. As long as the maintenance department did not make any mistakes, it would be fine."
Ruan Tang snorted, "Hmph, I just don't like Gao Qi. He's rotten to the core, yet he pretends to be righteous every day. Who knows if someone really reported me this time, or if he's just trying to frame me."
He Kun and Ji Rong both knew Gao Qi.
A while ago, Ji Nanfeng asked the two of them to keep an eye on him, but this man had always gone to get off work and tutored his daughter's homework without any problems.
Who would have thought that this time, Gao Qi, for some unknown reason, would actually attack Ruan Tang himself.
If they can't guess, then they can only use Gao Qi's next move.
If you are a fox, you will always show your big tail.
"My suspension is perfect. I can go out for a walk. I heard from little brother Ji yesterday that some of his classmates were going to have a picnic near the reservoir, and I happened to want to go with them."
Ruan Tang has been busy recently and hasn't had time to take care of Ji Xiaodi.
He remembered that Ji Xiaodi had the accident this summer.
At night, Ruan Tang said that she was now unemployed, and the responsibility of supporting the family would be handed over to Ji Nanfeng in the future.
"Don't make yourself unemployed."
Ji Nanfeng couldn't help but bite Ruan Tang's lips, "Don't be such a pessimist."
Ruan Tang whimpered and bit back.
When the two were in the midst of love, curses were heard from next door.
Ruan Tang's eyes, which were originally filled with lust, suddenly widened and were finally filled with gossip.
"You useless piece of shit! Didn't I tell you to pee before bed? Are you deliberately trying to bother me in the middle of the night?"
"Hold it! If you pee, I'll cut that thing off of you. It's useless anyway!"
Ruan Tang could hear clearly that it was Sister Xu's voice.
Sister Xu cursed Brother-in-law Xu like this, but Brother-in-law Xu didn't say a word back.
You know, in the past, it was always brother-in-law Xu who beat and scolded sister Xu.
Ji Nanfeng silently pulled up his underwear. It seemed that nothing would happen with this atmosphere tonight.
Later, after Sister Xu was taken away by the police, none of her husband's family members came to look after her. Even her widow, who had treated him with such kindness, didn't show up.
Sister Xu's husband had been hungry for two days, his bed was covered in feces and urine, and the wounds on his body began to fester. He shouted for help, but in the end he listened to advice and reconciled with Sister Xu.
But after Sister Xu came out, she changed. Maybe after seeing through her father's death, she just gave up.
When brother-in-law Xu scolded her, she would hit him back until he shut up.
After beating him a few times, Sister Xu seemed to find some pleasure in venting her anger, and whenever she was unhappy, she would beat her brother-in-law all over the face.
In order to survive, brother-in-law Xu had no choice but to endure it.
He thought that it would be good to wait until his son got married. By then, his daughter-in-law would be able to cook and give him something to eat.
After hearing this, Ruan Tang was amazed.
This couple has completely turned against each other now.
Before going to sleep, she listened to some gossip, and her dream was all about Sister Xu slapping her brother-in-law Xu... She was so frightened that she woke up early.
After waking up, she decided not to sleep. She took some money and went to a state-owned restaurant to buy some vegetarian buns, intending to take them to her younger brother Ji for a picnic.
Little Brother Ji was on summer vacation and had been living in the countryside these days. He came to the city early in the morning on a tractor, along with Zhao Sanqi and a few others.
A few people thought that Ruan Tang was worried about them going to the reservoir alone, so she specially sent them there. They were all very touched.
Qiushan Reservoir is located in the north of Hongyang County, and the tap water of the machinery factory is supplied by Qiushan Reservoir.
Ji's classmates were playing downstream of the Qiushan Reservoir, and the upstream area was fenced off by the water plant for water supply.
The water in Qiushan Reservoir is tested daily, so it's very safe. My classmates, who arrived early, were already fishing by the water wearing straw hats, hoping to catch a big fish.
As soon as Ji Xiaodi arrived at the location, his classmates called them to come over quickly.
It was obvious that Ji had already developed a good relationship with his classmates. When he first started school, he was at odds with the city kids, but now he had become part of their group.
Ruan Tang handed the steamed buns to Ji Xiaodi and said, "Go and play. Sister-in-law will take a look around."
Ji Xiaodi seemed to be telling Ruan Tang to go into the deep water, but Ruan Tang patted his head and said, "You are so long-winded, your sister-in-law, do I need you to teach me? You are just worrying about nothing, go and have fun."
After Ji Xiaodi was driven away by Ruan Tang, he went for a walk by the reservoir.
Who would have thought that she would run into Liu Xiangyun with her trouser legs rolled up, and touch a big turtle.
The two looked at each other.
Liu Xiangyun: ...It's over. The tortoise shell hasn't even been prepared yet and the debt collectors are here.
Ruan Tang: ...It's over, she was at a loss for words, it was her fault that she wasn't very good at getting close to people.
