Chapter 174: Piece by Piece
"You really just enjoy watching the fun. It doesn't matter where you watch it. There's no need to just sit there and watch. I think you just haven't learned your lesson. You'll know how serious this is when you're involved in something in the future." Ye Qian didn't care. Anyway, she had already told Li Manyu whether she could be transferred or not. It would be the best if she could be transferred, but even if she couldn't, it wouldn't be her concern.
Dong Jing pouted: "I know, I know, you guys one by one."
Li Manyu was not in the same office and didn't know what happened in the morning. She vaguely heard some noises, but it was not very loud so she didn't pay much attention to it. Now she asked Ye Qian directly.
Ye Qian told Li Manyu what happened in the morning. Li Manyu was speechless. She had no say in family matters, but she was in charge of work. It seemed that transferring Ji Hongxia had to be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
After lunch, several people returned to the office. The weather had become a little colder in the past few days. Although Ye Qian was wearing a military coat, she couldn't help but shrink her neck, let alone those people who were wearing cotton clothes. She had taken the kettle back because of Xu Yaoyao before, and she had never thought about it after Xu Yaoyao left. During the New Year, she found the kettle again when she was looking for it, so she brought it to work after work.
In fact, the union was not too far from the water-fetching place. As the only male comrade in the office, Kong Anping took on this task directly.
It was much more convenient for everyone to drink hot water. Ye Qian said as she poured the water, "I found this kettle when I was resting at home, otherwise I would have forgotten about it."
Dong Jing smiled and said, "I remember, but I was too embarrassed to mention it."
Jiang Sha also said, "Yes, I remember it too, but I was afraid that you might be using it at home, so I was embarrassed to tell you."
"Have you used it before?" Kong Anping asked.
Dong Jing explained to Kong Anping, "Our team leader before was Xu Yaoyao. He thought we had too many people boiling water while others were fetching it, so he didn't allow us to use it."
Jiang Sha nodded, and Ye Qian also nodded with a smile. It was almost the same idea, so there was no need to explain it in detail, otherwise it would make things more confusing.
Kong Anping nodded and didn't say much.
After get off work, everyone turned off the stove, locked the door and left. Ye Qian was waiting for Gu Jinyan at the door of the office. There was frost on the ground and Gu Jinyan was worried about falling if he rode a bike, so he took the bus home with Ye Qian.
Ji Hongxia drank a lot of hot water that day, but still felt very cold. She went to the bathroom after get off work. When she came out, she saw Ye Qian walking out of the unit gate with Gu Jinyan. For a moment, she sighed and thought, "It would be great if Lu Li could treat her like this."
Because of Ji Hongxia's miscarriage, Lu Li treated Ji Hongxia very well. When they were at home, he let Ji Hongxia lie down and serve her tea and water. Today, he sent her to the office when she went to work, and naturally went to pick her up when she got off work.
As soon as Lu Li arrived at the door of the Grain Bureau, he saw Ji Hongxia staring blankly ahead. Lu Li followed Ji Hongxia's gaze and saw Ye Qian holding Gu Jinyan and talking, and Gu Jinyan also responded gently.
Lu Li was a little disappointed. What the hell was going on? Could it be that Ji Hongxia had fallen for Gu Jinyan? She was indeed not a quiet person. It was right for him to beat her, otherwise she would not have seduced him when he was with Fei Hongyu.
This time, Lu Li really wronged Ji Hongxia. Ji Hongxia was just envious of the couple's love.
Lu Li walked towards Ji Hongxia impatiently and said, "Even if you look at it, it's not yours. Are you going home or not?"
Ji Hongxia came back to her senses because of Lu Li's words, but she didn't hear the previous words clearly. She only heard whether she was going home or not. Ji Hongxia immediately responded: "Go home."
Lu Li was a little angry. Did he really like her? He walked faster and faster on the way home, not paying any attention to Ji Hongxia behind him.
Ji Hongxia didn't know what happened to Lu Li. He was obviously not like this in the morning. Lu Li walked faster and faster, and Ji Hongxia found it more and more difficult to keep up. The road was slippery, and Ji Hongxia accidentally fell.
"Ouch." Ji Hongxia squatted on her buttocks. She was in great pain from the fall.
Unable to get up for a moment, Ji Hongxia shouted loudly: "Lü Li, I can't get up."
Lu Li naturally heard the sound of Ji Hongxia falling. He didn't want to help her at first, but since he was called his name, he couldn't pretend not to hear it, so he walked over and reached out to pull Ji Hongxia. Ji Hongxia held Lu Li's hand and prepared to get up, but she fell down again before she could get up a bit. This time, she pulled Lu Li down with her.
Lu Li was in some pain from being thrown down. He was already furious, and now he was even more furious. He slapped Ji Hongxia in the face: "You're falling down while walking. Do you know how to walk? Didn't your mother teach you to walk?" It was obvious that Lu Li's slaps couldn't quell his anger. He slapped her again and again. After several consecutive slaps, passersby couldn't help but say a few words of advice: "Young man, stop hitting me. If you hit me again, I'll call the police."
Seeing that more and more people were gathering around him, Lu Li ignored Ji Hongxia and got up and left.
Ji Hongxia sat there crying. When the people around her saw that Lu Li didn't hit her anymore, they left one by one. The weather was so cold that no one wanted to stay outside even if it meant being nosy.
Ji Hongxia slowly stood up while crying and carefully followed Lu Li back home.
When Lü Li came back and didn't see Ji Hongxia, Lü's mother asked, "Where's your wife?"
Lu Li replied impatiently, "It's in the back." Then he turned and went back to the house.
Sure enough, after a while, Ji Hongxia pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing her red eyes, Lu's mother guessed that the two of them had a fight on the road. Lu's mother was too lazy to pay attention to Ji Hongxia. As long as she was back, she turned around and went to the kitchen to cook dinner.
Seeing that no one paid attention to her, Ji Hongxia went back to her room. Seeing Lu Li sitting next to her, she ignored him and sat aside as well. They did not go out to eat until Lu's mother prepared dinner.
…
After dinner, Ye Qian held Xiao Ranran in her arms and walked back and forth around the house. The floor outside was slippery, so it wasn't convenient to go out for a walk after dinner, so she could only walk around the house. After a few turns, she coaxed Xiao Ranran to sleep. After Ye Qian put Xiao Ranran on the small bed on the second floor, she said to Gu Jinyan, "This child can eat and sleep well. Look at how old he is, why is he so fleshy? His arms are like lotus roots, segmented."
Gu Jinyan looked at his son who had gained weight and said, "It should be okay. He'll be fine when he grows up. I've seen other people's children are this fat too."
Ye Qian was speechless. Whose family was as fat as Xiao Ranran? She was malnourished and as thin as a kitten. She couldn't even cry loudly. He had the nerve to lie with his eyes open.
Gu Jinyan naturally understood Ye Qian's expression: "We eat well, why do we have to compare ourselves with others and be less nutritious?"
