Chapter 62



"What? Hurry up. Get out and close the door for me."

He Lingling suddenly lost all her strength. She put down the teacup and picked up the materials. "Okay, leader."

Today everything in the state-owned hotel is normal, with a few customers, lazy waiters swatting flies with bats, and the aroma of delicious food.

Qin Xiaoting pulled Jiang Li and whispered, "Li, why do you feel the same as usual?"

But Jiang Li was sharp-eyed and soon discovered that the waitress who had spoken to Zhuang Guoliang last time was missing.

Did you ask for leave or is there something going on at home?

Jiang Li's heart is more inclined to the latter.

"What to eat?"

“Two bowls of vegetarian noodles.”

It’s not that Jiang Li is stingy, it’s just that the issue of the sick pork has not been resolved yet, and she doesn’t dare to eat the pickled mustard greens in this state-owned restaurant for the time being.

Qin Xiaoting also responded, "Let's go to the grocery store later and see if we can find some bargains."

The two of them sat very close to the food window, eating noodles and watching, and heard the waiter complaining, "Today's pickled vegetables are too cheap. My daughter wanted to eat braised pork, but there was none. What's wrong with the kitchen?"

"How should I know? I didn't buy this dish. I'm so unlucky. I finally got a day off, but Sister Fan dragged me to work."

"Hey, isn't there a wedding at home? I heard that her son is getting married and they are having a banquet. You better be patient."

"She said something nice, like, 'You covered for me this time, I'll cover for you next time.' But have you ever seen her cover for anyone else? It's really annoying!"

Jiang Li's heart sank. The waitress, Sister Fan, who had not come to work, must not have received the report.

The sick pork was most likely used for a wedding banquet. With so many people eating it together, it would be a disaster if something went wrong.

A bowl of vegetarian noodles was slurped down, and Qin Xiaoting also slurped it up on the opposite side. After wiping her mouth, the two stood up and started asking.

Jiang Li first handed each of the two waiters a piece of candy and said, "Sister, I want to ask you something. Why is Aunt Fan not at work today?"

The two waiters looked at each other when they saw that Eri was being polite. "What's the matter? Are you her relative?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Yes, this is my first time in the city.

My mother asked me to bring some dried vegetables to Aunt Fan, but she didn't tell me where Aunt Fan lived. She just told me that she worked in a state-owned hotel and that I could find her here.

I didn’t expect that I would miss the bet. What should I do?”

The two men relaxed and looked Jiang Li up and down. It turned out that she was a poor relative of Fan Xiaomei from the countryside. Maybe she heard that Fan Xiaomei's family was having a wedding today and went to the banquet on purpose to eat for free.

"Her house is not far from here. Just turn left after you exit the hotel and walk to the end.

Then turn right and walk to the small alley with a well. If you ask people, you will definitely find it. "

The two of them quickly found Fan Ximei's home, and sure enough, it was very lively and the yard was bustling with activity.

Inside, a young lady dressed festively was happily talking to her relatives. The banquet had not yet started. Jiang Li took a quick look and found that it was indeed Fan Xiaomei.

"Li, what should I do?"

"Let's write another letter and send it to the hospital. Whether it will succeed or not depends on God's will."

The situation is urgent and the table is about to start.

Qin Xiaoting took out a pen and paper from her bag, wrote with her left hand, then wrapped it in a stone and threw it into the yard.

"Oh, who is so wicked!"

Jiang Li and Qin Xiaoting looked at each other and said, "Run."

The stone hit the head of a guest next to Fan Ximei, and the paper was not fixed properly and scattered on the ground.

Fan Ximei was sharp-eyed and immediately saw the words on it, "The pork you bought is sick pork, don't eat it, it will kill you!"

Her heart sank suddenly, and she quickly picked up the note and held it in her hand, looking around. Who on earth could be so vicious to mess up her son's wedding banquet?

Was it the neighbor next door who had an argument with me? Or someone in the hotel?

Sister Fan couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried. At this time, her son came over and said, "Mom, why haven't we started eating yet? We're all hungry."

She thought to herself that it was probably some malicious person with red eye who couldn't bear to see her family doing well, so he deliberately threw the note to disgust her.

For today's feast, she had bought twenty kilograms of pork from the butcher, so she couldn't let the money go to waste. "Ask the chef to serve the dishes."

Then she rolled her eyes and muttered, "Son, come into the room with me. I have something to tell you."

"Daughter-in-law, you eat first."

The new daughter-in-law in a red dress responded, feeling very happy. Although her mother-in-law looked powerful when the two families first talked about getting married, she was actually a soft-hearted person.

Several large bowls of pork slices were served, and the guests at the table quickly grabbed the meat with their chopsticks falling like raindrops.

While eating, he praised, "Working in a hotel must be a good way to be able to prepare so many meat dishes."

"My younger sister is an open-minded person. Look at how well-off she is. Whose wedding can be as grand as hers?"

"Why does this pork smell wrong? Is it spoiled?"

"No, but it's hot this time, so it's normal to have a little smell. Don't worry about it, just eat it anyway."

"Is Sister Fan at home?"

Two men in uniform and wearing red armbands stood at the door and shouted, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Fan Xiaomei's heart skipped a beat and she rushed out of the house. "I'm Fan Xiaomei, who are you?"

"We are from the Revolutionary Committee. We recently found a private slaughterhouse in Xiaoxingling. According to the operator, they recently sold a batch of sick pork, which eventually flowed into the market. Some of it was bought by you. Come with us!"

Two red armbands held Fan Xiaomei, and her legs went limp. "Leader, I just bought some pork privately. It has nothing to do with this pig farm."

"We will find out what happened when the time comes. Let's go!"

"What did they say? Sick pork, we are eating sick pork?"

The guests at the banquet burst into a loud curse, and suddenly felt something was wrong with the pork on the table.

"I said this pork tastes wrong! Eating sick pork can kill people.

How can Miss Fan be so heartless? Can she buy sick pork? "

"Mom! You can't take my mom away. My mom doesn't know anything about it!"

Fan Ximei's son negotiated with the people from the Revolutionary Committee, while her daughter-in-law cast a suspicious look at her mother-in-law.

Did Fan Ximei really not know that the pork she bought was sick? Why did she, who always loved her son, not let him eat and instead called someone into the house? What were they talking about?

"Okay, no wonder your mother let me eat first, it seems like she was testing me! Your family is rich, and your daughter-in-law is an outsider, so you're fine even if you eat her to death, right?"

Fan Ximei's daughter-in-law grabbed the man's hair and started to wrestle with him. Her family members who were still having the feast could no longer sit still, and several of her uncles-in-law also started to make a scene, and the scene became a mess.
