Chapter 257 Regretful Mother Wen
Chapter 258 Regretful Mother Wen
Old Mrs. Fang’s request stumped Fang Decai.
Although he has now returned to his ancestral home and has several powerful brothers, Fang Decai also understands that he is still a stranger to the Qin family.
My family has just become familiar with the Qin family. It seems a bit inappropriate to ask them for help at this time.
After thinking it over, Fang Decai still felt that he could not agree to this matter.
"Mom, things are not like before. In the past, we might have been able to use our connections, but now it's all a civil service system. If you want to enter a government agency, you need to pass a series of registration exams. And although the Qin family has some connections, those big brothers are very serious about these things. I think we should think of other ways to deal with this matter..."
Old Mrs. Fang didn't expect that her son frowned and thought for a long time, but still disagreed. Her face suddenly became gloomy.
"What do you mean? You just don't want to help me, right? It's just a small matter. For those big leaders, it's just a matter of a word. It's not as troublesome as you say! Just ask them to call our provincial or municipal leaders and the matter will be resolved. Why can't you do that?"
Seeing that his father was unable to open his mouth due to the scolding from his grandmother, Fang Qing sat over with a smile to ease the atmosphere.
"Grandma, it's not that my dad doesn't want to help you, it's just that those uncles can't help. I heard that they all hold positions with little real power, so it's useless even if I call them..."
Seeing that Mrs. Fang was about to open her mouth to refute, she hurriedly continued, "Besides, the key to this matter is not us, but my old aunt! Do you know what kind of job she likes? If you work hard to help her find a job and she doesn't like it, then you have worked in vain, right?"
Seeing that Old Mrs. Fang fell into deep thought, Fang Qing hurried to strike while the iron was hot.
"My uncle has always been doing well in business. Maybe my aunt also likes doing business. Why do you have to let her go to a government agency? Besides, the salary of civil servants is very low now. There are all kinds of people in the agency, and they are scheming against each other all the time. It's better to let my aunt choose what she likes to do..."
After listening to Fang Qing's analysis of the pros and cons, Old Mrs. Fang felt a little relieved.
"If that's the case, I'll think about this matter again. But you guys have to help me think of a solution. We're all family, how can we just sit there and do nothing at this time?"
Fang Decai finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his mother no longer asked him to ask for help from others. He quickly nodded and agreed that he would try to see if he could help find other jobs. Only then did Mrs. Fang smile with satisfaction.
"That's it for now. Call Deli and his wife back tonight so we can have a good family reunion..."
After lunch, Fang Qing and her daughter cleaned the guest room themselves.
Seeing that there were few toiletries at home, and her uncle happened to be back in the evening, and there was not much meat or vegetables at home, Fang's mother asked her children to go shopping at a newly opened supermarket in the county.
This Jiafu Supermarket is located near the county grain bureau. I heard that it was built by the county to support the loss-making grain bureau.
The decoration outside the supermarket is very simple, but when you walk in, you will find that the goods inside are surprisingly rich.
When Fang's mother saw many fresh vegetables and fruits that were hard to find on the market, she immediately became interested. She asked Fang Ming to push the shopping cart in the back, while she and Fang Qing started shopping frantically in the front.
The supermarket had just opened for a short time and the goods inside were still very affordable. While shopping, Fang's mother lamented the price of vegetables in the capital.
The three of them walked around the supermarket and bought a whole cart of things. Just as they stopped at the checkout counter to pay, they heard a very familiar voice behind them.
"Haruxia?"
Fang's mother quickly turned around and was stunned when she saw the person behind her.
"Mrs. Wen? What are you doing..."
Mother Wen is completely different now than she was a year ago.
He was dark and thin, with some gray hair. He was curled up in a wheelchair, covered with a thick blanket, and coughed from time to time.
"Sister Wen, what happened to you? I heard that you were sick before. Why are you so thin?"
"I'm sorry to make you laugh. I was sick before and never recovered. Now I feel much better. I came out for a walk..."
Although the two families had had a very unpleasant quarrel before, seeing her like this now, Fang's mother no longer complained. She sighed and was about to speak, but she noticed the person behind her.
"Wen Ning? Oh my! You are finally back safely! You look so different, I almost didn't recognize you!"
Wen Ning, who is tall and graceful, is wearing a casual windbreaker. Although his appearance has not changed much, his overall temperament has become more outstanding.
"Aunt Fang, long time no see, how are you?"
Liu Chunxia looked Wen Ning up and down for a long time and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"I haven't seen you for a few years. You look like an adult now. I heard that you came back safely. Your uncle Fang and I are relieved..."
Fang's mother asked a lot more questions, and Wen Ning answered them one by one with a smile, but his gentle eyes would always glance at Fang Qing behind Fang's mother from time to time.
"So where do you work now?"
"I'm also in the capital, currently working at SDK Group as the temporary vice president..."
Although Fang's mother didn't know what kind of work unit SDK Group was, she knew it was a large enterprise just by hearing the name, so she felt relieved.
"When you were in school, you were the most promising among these children. I was right. You really made your parents proud..."
Looking at Fang Qing who was becoming more and more beautiful behind Fang's mother, Wen's mother felt very regretful.
I heard that Fang Qing is now working in the capital, and even Fang Ming has settled down in BJ. Now that the whole family has moved to the capital, they think their future life will be good. Why did she blind herself to the lies of a little girl and break up her son's good marriage?
If I hadn't insisted on canceling this marriage back then, maybe I would have a grandson by now?
Thinking of this, Wen's mother couldn't hold back any longer and took Fang Qing's hand and kept praising him.
"Qingqing is getting more and more beautiful. Are you tired from working in the capital? You should also take care of your health... Do you have a partner after returning this time? If not..."
"Sister-in-law Wen!"
Fang's mother put her daughter behind her, and the smile on her face no longer had the gentleness it had just had.
"Sister Wen, I see that your health is much worse than before. You must take care of yourself. Come to my house when you have nothing to do. My mother is the only one at home now. If you go, who will be able to talk to you..."
Fang's mother interrupted her forcefully.
She knew exactly what Mother Wen wanted to say. She had despised their family and angrily broke off the engagement, but now she wanted to come back. What was she planning? She thought she didn't know.
"I have something to do at home, so I'll leave first. We can talk another day."
Looking at Fang Qing's family of three hurriedly leaving, Wen's mother was disappointed.
She knew that Chunxia had not forgiven her at all. When she noticed the look in her son's eyes as he watched Fang Qing leave, she finally regretted it.
"Ningning, it's mom... I'm sorry."
