Zheng Yao also stood up, her thin body looking so shaky.
But that look couldn't lie. Ling Ju could feel that the girl's rebellious nature was being aroused little by little. She didn't know what the fuse was, but she was willing to help her.
When she thought of Zheng Zong and Feng Zhaodi, she felt happy to see them suffer a setback. She was not some saint. If Zheng Yao was not like that, or if she was a traitor, she would not have kept her.
Seeing her come out, Zhen Zhen immediately came to greet her. Ling Ju knew from her excited expression that this girl had already regarded this "cousin" as her own.
As one of the victims of a patriarchal family, Zhen Zhen feels very sorry for her cousin.
Even though they don't know each other...
"Go ahead, take her with you. She looks like a smart person."
Zhen Zhen nodded and went into the lounge. Then a cheerful chattering sound came from inside.
Ling Ju called Chen Yun outside and said, "Secretary Chen, go check what's going on with Zheng Yao's job. I don't believe she can just quit."
"Okay, sister-in-law, I'll arrange it right away."
"By the way, are you sure nothing happened to that little brother you sent to Zheng Yao's factory last time?"
Chen Yun nodded. "Yes, nothing happened. Besides, he's been near Zheng Yaozu's school every day, watching over those kids. He hasn't shown any abnormal behavior."
"Okay, then, tell him to keep watching. If he has time, he can also go to the Zheng family's neighborhood to see if Zheng Zong and his wife are causing trouble again. Remuneration is not a problem."
"OK."
Chen Yun hurried to make arrangements. Ling Ju returned to the store and found Zhen Zhen helping Zheng Yao pack. Zheng Yao was right. Bedding, clothes, shoes, water cups, and all sorts of other things were in that big luggage bag. However, the quilt was too thin, and it was still a bit cold to cover it in this weather.
Without saying anything, she turned around and went to the store across the street and bought a set of thick bedding.
When I got it back the bed was already made.
"Miss Ling, what is this?"
"You can use this one I just bought. Your blanket is too thin. The weather is quite cold. Don't catch a cold."
"It's okay, I'll just use this."
Zhen Zhen took it and said, "Hey, Zheng Yao, don't be polite. Just take the orange I'm giving you! And it's really cold now, and yours is too thin. I was just thinking of going back and getting you one of mine. If you buy the orange, you can use it. It's okay."
Zhen Zhen didn't care about Zheng Yao and started changing directly. Zheng Yao no longer refused, "Thank you, Miss Ling! Thank you so much!"
"It's okay, is there anything I can help you with?"
"No, I'll clean it up right away."
"Okay, I'll go to the window first. It's almost time to get off work so there will be a lot of people. I'll go watch it first."
Ling Ju went to sit by the window, and soon people started to buy things.
After Zhen Zhen and Zheng Yao finished, Zheng Yao helped pack the goods. Ling Ju sold the goods and collected the money while observing Zheng Yao. She was indeed a skillful person. She had not made a mistake.
After a few hours, Zheng Yao had become very good at the job, so Zhen Zhen decided to let her go to the front to collect money tomorrow.
Before closing the door at night, Zhen Zhen locked all the doors and windows, and told Zheng Yao not to open the door for others without permission. If anything happened, she should go to the east unit on the third floor at the back of the building to find Hu Jun and Wu Jian.
She brought Hu Jun and Wu Jian to meet her again before she left with peace of mind.
Chen Yun looked at Zhen Zhen and was impressed. This girl was really kind. Zhen Zhen was not only good to Zhen Jia, but also to Zheng Yao. Zheng Yao didn't even know that Zhen Zhen was her cousin.
Ling Ju came back late that day and went straight back to the courtyard with Zhen Zhen.
The next morning, when Ling Ju saw Chen Yun rushing over, she knew that the investigation should be making some progress.
Sure enough, the reason why Zheng Yao left the steel plant was not simple.
"Let's go inside and talk."
Chen Yun followed him into the room and found the family having breakfast. "Second sister-in-law, why don't we wait until you finish eating before we talk."
"It's okay, you can talk about it. There are no outsiders here."
"Sit down, Xiao Chen, let's eat together. Would you like some soy milk?"
Chen Yun smiled and said, "Okay, Aunt Tian, I'll just have a bowl and pour it myself. Didn't Uncle Ling go to the base today?"
"Go, go later, I don't have anything to do today."
Chen Yun went to the kitchen and got a bowl with ease, then poured a bowl of soy milk. Ling Dawei handed him a sesame pancake, which he took.
"You young people, eat. We have to go to the base first. There will be too many people on the bus later."
"Okay. Take care, Uncle Ling and Aunt Tian."
Chen Yun spoke only after the two men left.
"Sister-in-law, I've found out why Zheng Yao left the steel mill. My little brother asked around and he said Zheng Yao was harassed by a gangster at the factory and had no choice but to leave. The gangster would harass her from time to time, and many people in the factory knew about it, but since he was the factory director's youngest son, no one dared to intervene."
Ling Ju put down the bowl, his expression suddenly becoming serious. "I knew there had to be something fishy going on here. Did that scoundrel do anything out of the ordinary?"
Chen Yun thought for a long time and decided to say it directly, "Something unusual happened." After he finished speaking, the two women looked at him together.
"Brother Chen, what's going on? Someone is bullying my cousin?" Zhen Zhen clenched his fists, his little face puffed up with anger.
Chen Yun nodded, "That man molested Zheng Yao several times..."
Zhen Zhen slammed the table with a loud bang. "What! Did I hear it right? In broad daylight!"
"Zhen Zhen, don't get excited yet. Let Secretary Chen finish."
Zhen Zhen sat down.
"My little brother also said that Zheng Yao's roommate said that Zheng Yao had been nauseous and vomiting for a while, and suspected that she was pregnant..."
