Chapter 33: Who is getting married?
Seeing the two men about to enter the office building, Hu Honghua hesitated between "eating" and "watching the fun" and chose to watch the fun.
She followed him to the office building and peeked at them from behind.
Li Tianbao was following behind Wang Yulian, calling her "Auntie" with an obedient look on his face. It was obvious that he was pretending!
Hu Honghua and Li Tianbao almost grew up together in the village. She was very familiar with Li Tianbao. When Li Tianbao was young, he was a troublemaker. People in the village looked at him as a child and didn't bother with him. When he grew up, he lost the halo of a "child" and turned from a troublemaker into a gangster. He didn't go out to farm every day, but wandered around in the village. Cats and dogs in the village disliked him.
Later, Li Tianbao went to Chunfeng Town. I heard that he was also a lazy person who would go home to ask for money when he had nothing to do. He was older than Li Tianci, but he still didn't have a girlfriend.
For a while, Zhao Erjie searched the whole village for girls, hoping to arrange one for her son. However, her son was too mediocre, and Zhao Erjie had a bad reputation. If she really married into the Li family, she would have a lot of trouble in the future.
Imagine a mother-in-law who keeps an eye on you all the time, who always uses all kinds of sarcastic words to provoke you, and who wants to take advantage of you whenever she sees you; plus a husband who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun; a grandfather who is paralyzed in a wheelchair; and a grandmother who fights with people everywhere and never loses - you can almost imagine the chaotic life.
No one in every household was willing to hand over their daughter to such a family, so no one had paid any attention to Li Tianbao until now.
Li Tianbao has never been doing well. Hu Honghua even heard from others that someone like Li Tianbao can only marry a wife from outside in the future - the decent locals know his background well and will not marry him.
But now, Li Tianbao actually came to the garment factory with Wang Yulian!
Hu Honghua followed them and watched them enter the garment factory's office building. She followed them all the way to the second floor and saw everyone going downstairs.
It was time to get off work! Everyone else was going to eat. Hu Honghua went up against the flow of people and stood at the door of the second-floor office when she saw her aunt coming out.
My aunt looks very beautiful today. She is wearing a small suit and low heels. Her hair is neatly tied behind her head, revealing her beautiful face completely.
The older woman was like a fully bloomed flower, with a straight and soft face, standing there smiling.
Hu Honghua was happy to see her aunt.
Shi Meilan was also very happy to see Hu Honghua, and she called her, "Let's go to the cafeteria to eat."
If you go too late, you won't be able to get a good seat or eat good food. Although there are few people in the office, there are a group of female workers in other buildings, plus the security guards and cleaners, there are quite a lot of people.
Hu Honghua held back her words and moved closer to Shi Meilan, whispering to her aunt in a low voice, "I just saw Li Tianbao."
Shi Meilan raised her eyebrows and said, "Auntie saw it too. Let's go out and talk."
Not only did she see it, she also secretly inquired about it.
The two men came down the stairs, gossiping to each other as they walked.
Just now, Shi Meilan also saw Li Tianbao being brought into the office by Wang Yulian. Li Tianbao followed Wang Yulian closely. If you didn't know, you would think they were very good relatives - well, actually, they are relatives now, but as to whether their relationship is good or not, that's not known.
When Li Tianbao entered the office, he made eye contact with Shi Meilan.
Their eyes met, and Li Tianbao subconsciously turned away - not for any other reason, but because he was afraid of Shi Meilan.
When Li Tianbao was a child, Shi Meilan often punished him, which left him with some traumatic feelings towards his aunt.
But in a flash, Li Tianbao thought that Shi Meilan was no longer his aunt!
Li Tianbao had been hanging out in the town with a few brothers, occasionally doing odd jobs and stealing some things. He rarely went home and didn't know much about what was going on at home. It was not until a few days ago when his mother came to the town and found him that he realized so many things had happened in the village while he was away.
His aunt has been replaced by someone else!
The new aunt is Wang Yulian, who lives next door to my second uncle. She is the widow Wang who was dumped by her ex-husband. However, although she was dumped by her husband, she later found a job for herself. Moreover, she not only found a job for herself.
It was said that Widow Wang wanted to introduce him to work in the sales department of the garment factory! Just listen, how glamorous!
While Li Tianbao was thinking, he had already caught up with Wang Yulian in front of him and pretended not to know Shi Meilan.
The new Aunt Wang had already told him that he just had to pretend not to know Shi Meilan.
The two of them walked into the office, and then Wang Yulian left Li Tianbao in the office and went to knock on Manager Lu's door.
The person inside the door replied in a gloomy tone: "Come in."
Wang Yulian slowly opened the door and walked in. As soon as she entered, she said to Manager Lu inside, "Hello, Manager Lu, I brought the money."
She didn't dare to delay at all, for fear that Manager Lu would be impatient with her - she had survived by borrowing money from Manager Lu before, so she had to send the money quickly. She was afraid that Manager Lu would be unhappy and kick her out again.
When she arrived at Manager Lu's office, she saw Manager Lu sitting behind his desk with a sad face and a gloomy expression.
Manager Lu already had a long face, and now it drooped down, making him look like an old donkey with a droopy face.
Oops, what happened?
Wang Yulian looked at Manager Lu's face cautiously and didn't dare to ask.
"Oh, you're here." Manager Lu looked up at Wang Yulian and said, "So soon."
"Yes, I signed two big contracts and borrowed some money from others. I dare not delay." Wang Yulian went out drinking with Boss Feng a lot in recent days for money, and tricked Boss Feng into signing several contracts with her.
Not only did Boss Feng sign the contract, but he also got others to buy from her. She made a lot of money thanks to Boss Feng, and she even learned how to take a commission. Clothes from the factory were one price, but sold to others for another. She secretly raised a dollar or two by selling them to small vendors, and even took a cut—these vendors didn't sign contracts; they just paid for the clothes.
At this time, Wang Yulian also experienced the feeling of "Manager Lu". Manager Lu withheld her money, and she went to withhold the money of the small vendors below.
The total amount of money was actually not enough, but Wang Yulian was anxious to get Li Tianbao in, so she had to borrow money from Boss Feng.
Boss Feng is a very interesting person. As long as he can get an advantage, he is willing to pay. Wang Yulian lowered her status and coaxed him, and he was so confused that he generously lent money on the spot and said, "You don't have to pay it back."
Wang Yulian didn't dare to believe the words "you don't have to pay it back". Now Boss Feng would take her out for drinks whenever he had time. She had adhered to the last line and avoided any trouble. If she really didn't have to pay the money back, she would definitely be in trouble.
So she said, "I will definitely pay it back." If she worked for another year or two, the money would be enough.
After signing two big contracts in a row, she made a lot of money. Adding the money from Boss Feng, she dared to come to Manager Lu.
When Manager Lu heard the word "money", he became a little interested. He raised his head, reached out to take it, and looked down. Ouch, there were three hundred-yuan bills.
"Why are there only three of these?" Manager Lu asked, fiddling with the money in his hand.
Wang Yulian quickly said, "I have a nephew in my hometown."
She was very good at speaking, begging and praising Manager Lu continuously, and the money was also given in place. All these factors combined made Manager Lu slightly moved.
Although Mr. Yuan has arrived, he doesn't care about the personnel flow of the group below. Mr. Yuan won't be able to notice one more person. Besides, Mr. Yuan doesn't have time to take care of it now.
Mr. Yuan has gone back to Baicheng Town to deal with his father's death, as well as a dispute over inheritance. I don't know when he'll be back. I guess he's already very busy.
Manager Lu values money too much. She doesn't want to let go of even a small amount and dares to accept any amount of money. As long as she is not discovered, she will always hold on to a fluke mentality.
"I'm doing this for your husband's sake," Manager Lu said, making up an excuse. "Go wait outside, and then call Director Sun over. I'll make the arrangements."
Wang Yulian quickly agreed, then left and called Director Sun in.
After Director Sun went in, he came out after a few minutes and started organizing files. Shi Meilan came over and asked a few questions before she found out what was going on.
It turned out that it was Wang Yulian who brought Li Tianbao in.
OK, the whole family is really going into the garment factory.
I think he is going to follow the old path of Manager Lu.
I don’t know what Wang Yulian is thinking. With the character of Li Lao Da’s family, any good thing given to them would be like throwing meat buns to a dog, and they would never come back.
A normal person would turn around and ride away on their bike when they saw Li Laoer's house, but Wang Yulian was different. She actually allowed them to eat her meat.
Shi Meilan curled her lips and thought to herself that if she had the guts, she could bring the entire Lijia Village with her. Then she could use the human wave tactics to surround the city from the countryside, capture the entire garment factory, overthrow Yuan's imperialism, and allow the working class to rise up, take charge of the garment factory, and establish a new Lijia Village kingdom.
She muttered to herself, thinking that she had not yet taken revenge, and now another little brat has come. It's really worrying.
She stood up, greeted Director Sun, and went outside, just in time to see Hu Honghua coming up.
The two of them walked down the stairs, talking to each other as they headed to the cafeteria. On the way, they told each other everything they knew. While eating, they scolded Li Laoer and Li Laoda's entire family. Finally, they returned to the dormitory to rest contentedly.
After eating and drinking, they planned to go to the dormitory to talk for a while, then go to bed early and have a good sleep before getting up early to go to work tomorrow morning.
As a result, when the two of them walked to the front of the dormitory, they ran into Wang Yulian head-on.
It seemed as if this person was waiting here on purpose, waiting for them to come. When he saw them from afar, Wang Yulian did not hide or avoid him. Instead, she smoothed her hair and smiled at Shi Meilan.
Oh, that's rare.
Shi Meilan stopped and stared at her, waiting for her to speak - to see what kind of medicine Wang Yulian was selling in this broken gourd.
Wang Yulian smiled at her and said softly, "Meilan, what happened before is all in the past. We will still be colleagues in the future. I have something happy to tell you."
"Happy event?" Shi Meilan asked suspiciously, "What?"
Wang Yulian said gently, "Jianye and I are getting married."
