425 Auntie, am I your donkey?

The old branch secretary came back very quickly.

He had already come before Fu Yuanhang and Mumu's sweet potatoes were cooked.

"Ahhang, I got the address. Let me go with you."

Fu Yuanhang and Mumu were a little surprised. They thought it would take more effort.

"No need, Grandpa Branch Secretary. Mumu and I can do it. I'll have to trouble you with the certificate for the transfer of household registration later." The

old branch secretary: "Don't be so formal with me. It's my job. By the way, if you need a tractor, go and tell Ah Niu. It's not the busy farming season now, so there's no need for a car."

The old branch secretary told them some of the situations he had learned about, including the names of the relatives, the population structure of the family, etc.

Xiao Meizi's relatives in the city are not from a high-ranking family, but just ordinary employees of the food factory. They happened to follow the factory's car to go out for shopping that day and picked up Xiao Meizi by the way.

Fu Yuanhang thought for a while: "Uncle Secretary, it is inconvenient to go in and out with the tractor. Can you lend us your bicycle?"

The old secretary: "Of course, I will help you push it over?"

"No, no, we will go and get it directly after we finish eating the sweet potatoes."

"The sweet potatoes are almost baked, uncle secretary, do you want to eat some?" Mumu asked.

"No, no, you, you only eat this for lunch?" The old secretary's eyes were a little complicated.

Mumu nodded: "Yes, sweet potatoes are so good."

"Why don't you come to my house to eat? Although there are no delicious dishes, you can still eat your fill."

"No, no, we'll leave after we finish eating. Thank you, Secretary."

What a good child! The old secretary left with mixed feelings.

After eating the fragrant roasted sweet potatoes, the two immediately went to the old secretary's house to borrow a bicycle and rushed to the county town without stopping.

They were not in a hurry to find Xiaomeizi, but first went to the surrounding areas of the family building to find out the details of the family.

It just so happened that some grandpa and grandma said that someone's family had recently got a nanny from the countryside, who worked tirelessly to help them with laundry, cooking and childcare. The old lady treated her like an ancient maid, and the whole family didn't have to do anything. They just strolled outside all day, enjoying themselves.

Mumu was so angry when she heard this. Screw the nanny!

Fu Yuanhang pulled Mumu and asked casually, "Why did I hear that the child was from a relative's family and was taken in to enjoy a good life?"

The aunt who knew about the situation was amused when she heard this:

"Who knows? Maybe for children in the countryside, having a few sets of half-new clothes and a full meal is considered a blessing.

In our opinion, we have to get up before six in the morning to make breakfast for the whole family, wash the clothes for the whole family, feed the several hungry children in the family, and then we can eat a cold breakfast and wash the dishes for the whole family.

After sending the children to school, we buy vegetables and cook at noon, pick up the children from school, and wait until the whole family is full before we eat the leftovers, and then wash the dishes and clean up.

It's the same in the afternoon, and we have to boil water for the children to take a bath. We are busy until ten o'clock in the evening and may not be able to go to bed.

I guess the farmhands in ancient times were not made like this. Do you want to enjoy such a blessing? "Ah?"

Someone nearby asked the aunt, "How do you know so clearly?"

The aunt shook her head and said, "How big is the tube building? I live next door to them, use the same public kitchen, and do laundry and drying in the same area.

My grandson and their twins are in the same parenting class. Do you think I know this?

Their old lady even boasts everywhere, saying that she has raised children for her poor relatives who have lost their entire families, and that she has done a great deed. Bah, so shameless!

If I die, whoever dares to do this to my child, I will have to lift the coffin lid and cry at her bedside in the middle of the night to scare her to death!"

Mumu's fists were hardened: "I can't afford to lose face, I..."

Fu Yuanhang stopped him and threatened him not to make trouble.

Fu Yuanhang and Mumu were so cute that the aunt said a lot without realizing it. Then she realized that she seemed to have said too much:

"By the way, you don't look like locals? Why are you asking these questions?"

Fu Yuanhang didn't answer. He thanked her and walked away with Mumu.

"I'm so angry, Ah Hang, I'm really angry! What kind of person are you? Do you think you are a big landlord? How dare you order people around like this!"

Fu Yuanhang: "It's useless to be angry. Let's go and make a phone call first."

Mumu: "Who are you calling?"

Fu Yuanhang: "My sister-in-law."

Mumu: "Why? Can't we just find a few people to rush up and take her away? Xiaomei's household registration is still in the village. It's not under their family's jurisdiction. We can always take her away!"

Fu Yuanhang "Didn't you hear from Auntie that the couple are both full-time employees and take their jobs very seriously?

It would be too easy for them to just take Xiao Meizi away. Aren't they employees of the food factory? Let's ask Sister-in-law to send a fax to their factory and say that the two of us are here to visit and learn, and ask them to receive us.

Won't they ask Uncle Fu to use his power to pressure us? When we meet their leader, we will tell him about this. Even if we don't fire her, we will make her go to the factory. Demoted, no chance of promotion."

Mumu was stunned: "Is that so? Then our plan is useless?"

Fu Yuanhang said: "Plans cannot keep up with changes. We can achieve our goals according to our original plan, but this family is shameless. I can't hurt their foundation. What I want is to break their bones."

Mumu thought about it and nodded: "I understand. The snake is hit at its weakest point. Face and reputation are not important to the old lady, but her son and daughter-in-law are. 's work is important."

Mumu tilted his head to look at Fu Yuanhang: "Ah Hang, when did you become so cunning?"

Fu Yuanhang: "My sister-in-law said that being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. They are our class enemies now, so how can we stop here? We should be as ruthless to the enemy as the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves."

Mumu gave Fu Yuanhang a thumbs up: "From now on, you are my brother Hang, and I will call you big brother!"

Fu Yuanhang glanced at him: "Childish."

...

Su Taotao made arrangements quickly. The sugar factory attached to the base has risen too fast in the past few years. Not to mention the local or national level, it has become a benchmark for the entire industry.

Although the reputation may not be clear in the eyes of laymen, in the food factory industry, it can really be said that everyone knows about it.

Who doesn't want to visit and learn, and learn from advanced experience?

When the person in charge of the county food factory received Su Taotao's call, he thought he was hallucinating. A small local factory of their scale and level has no value in exchanging experiences and visiting and learning with others. Why do they welcome them to visit and learn and exchange with each other?

The person in charge almost thought it was a blessing from heaven!

Later, someone said that the factory director Su was originally an educated youth from Qinglian County and had stayed here for a few years. It is estimated that he was thinking of this favor.

How dare the person in charge neglect it? The people were already in the county. If it wasn't for the lateness, he would have wanted to arrange the reception work right away that day.

That night, all the employees of the county food factory worked overtime to clean the factory and prepare to welcome them. It

was even more complicated than dealing with the inspection of the superiors. The couple came home in the middle of the night and called Xiao Meizi to boil water and heat up the food for them.

Xiao Meizi hadn't laughed for a long time.

When she lived with her grandmother in the countryside, life was also difficult, but she could still go to school, read books and practice calligraphy. The time was all hers and her grandmother's. She could eat well and dress warmly. She was free and happy. She could

barely get by in the first few days and could even take some time to reply to Mumu and Fu Yuanhang.

But now, let alone reading and writing, she doesn’t even have enough time to sleep. She is so tired every

day that she can’t even lift her arms. She doesn’t know how to live like this.

When the couple showed up at her house, she really thought she had met good people. They spent money and effort to help her deal with her grandmother’s affairs, took her to live in the city, and said that they would find a good family for her when she turned 18.

But her biggest wish was to study. Her grandmother’s last wish was for her to continue her studies and at least graduate from high school.

But they never mentioned it again.

Life in the city was not what she thought it would be. They treated her as a free babysitter. She didn’t eat enough, didn’t sleep enough, and was so tired every day. Xiao Meizi didn’t know what to do in the future.

Will she really live to the day when she gets married at the age of 18?

"Are you deaf? I told you to get up and light the fire, didn't you hear me?"

The hostess worked overtime for most of the night, so she was naturally not in a good mood. She also had to coax Xiao Meizi to work like a slave for their family. She wouldn't be so excessive at other times, but this would make her so exhausted that

she forgot to pretend. Xiao Meizi was stunned. Although this family treated her like a donkey, they were usually polite to her. When they asked her to do something, they always said "Trouble you", "Thank you for your hard work", "Xiao Meizi's cooking is so delicious", "Xiao Meizi's clothes are so clean"... She was too embarrassed to refuse.

Xiao Meizi was most afraid of people being nice to her, and she was most likely to be soft-hearted with people who were nice to her. She was not afraid of people who were not nice to her. If she had not owed them a favor, she would have wanted to go back to the village long ago. Even if she lived alone, it would be a hundred times better than now.

"Auntie, am I your donkey?" Xiao Meizi asked weakly with dull eyes in the dark night.

The hostess reacted and held back her anger: "What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Of course not, we are your relatives. Your grandma is gone, and we are your only relatives.

I just worked overtime today and got confused. If you are tired, take a rest. I can light the fire myself."

The hostess gritted her teeth and said to the host: "Why don't you go and light the fire! I'm as tired as you. Do you want me to serve you? If you don't want to light the fire, wake up your mother and do it!"

Xiao Meizi closed her eyes and tried hard to fall asleep.

The old lady over there has already woken up: "Why are you making so much noise in the middle of the night? You're going to wake up the children. Did you lose your arm or leg? You want me, an old woman with one foot in the coffin, to get up in the middle of the night to serve you? Aren't you afraid of shortening your life?"

The hostess: "Of course I am, but serving such a big family, I'm afraid I'll be exhausted before I shorten my life!"

The old lady: "Do you think I've never worked? I used to work... Isn't it also housework after work? Now Xiao Meizi does all the housework, why are you tired?"

The hostess: "So you also know that Xiao Meizi does all the housework? You are the only one who eats idle meals at home, what's wrong with asking you to get up and boil some water for your son?" The old lady: "

I am happy to boil water for my son, but don't you want it after I boil it?"

The hostess: "Why shouldn't I want it..."

...

"The water is boiled, and the rice is hot, you can go and have it." Xiao Meizi said, dragging her exhausted body back to the room.

It can't be called a room, just a place separated by a rag curtain in the corner, with a few wooden boards, barely enough for people to sleep.

After lying down, Xiao Meizi couldn't help but shed tears. She didn't understand why they always quarreled but didn't want to do any work.

Obviously, they had already finished the work while they were quarreling.

Xiao Meizi was so tired. She didn't like this place at all. She wanted to go back to the village...
