Righteousness

"Dongya, are you sure you have decided to appoint Su Donglai as the general manager of the branch factory?" Nie Bozhao asked on the phone.

Deng Dongya's voice came from the other side. He kept asking his son if he was okay, whether he had made Chen Lina angry, whether he had stolen money from others, and whether he had done any damage and asked him to pay for it.

"Su Dong is still my son's godfather. He was also a backbone of the Daqing Oilfield. From now on, you will be good partners fighting side by side. Remember to take good care of him. After all, he is younger than you." Deng Dongya said.

Nie Gong looked at Wei Min, then at Leng Qi. Leng Qi asked what to do, and Nie Gong said, "You two should drive back first and keep an eye on the farm. Su Dong is Su Xiangdong, there is no doubt about it, but the car factory must be taken over, and the person cannot be left uncaptured.

So you go back to the farm and protect Liu Xiaohong, and arrest Su Xiangdong and Song Jian. I have to look after Lina, she is here to discuss business with several children, and she needs someone to accompany her."

So, after leaving the Corps Farm, Leng Qi and Wei Min drove away first, while Nian Gong went back to Hami.

Chen Lina has an appointment to go to Laoye Temple Port in the afternoon to discuss cooperation.

After all, Mongolia is much more backward than our Republic, and large quantities are indeed cold because they are produced everywhere in the country.

Although it is still a hot commodity, it is not easy for wool textile factories to make a profit from it, after all, the price has been slashed.

The port office is located in Hohhot, but He Min heard that a meeting will be held at the Tuha Petroleum Guesthouse tomorrow morning to discuss the opening of the port.

Nie Gong and his friends went to look for Su Xiangdong, not knowing what the situation was.

Meanwhile, three hooligans were vomiting and defecating, groaning in the hospital corridor.

Erdan just took two yuan out of Chen Lina's pocket for a few thugs. The money used to pay for the thugs' infusion was also Chen Lina's money. Of course, he didn't dare to ask his mother for money again.

This time, quietly, he called Xiaolu to the restroom.

Very mysteriously, he untied his trouser belt, and fumbled around somewhere, and found two two-yuan bills and a one-yuan bill. He handed them to Xiao Lu solemnly, "This money is what I have saved for many years. Originally, I wanted to buy a toy for my sister."

"Give it to you as nutrition money, and use the rest to buy something to eat. This is all I can do to help you." Erdan said, patted Xiaolu's shoulder, picked up his trousers, turned around and left.

The big brother's broad back is so steady, solemn, and righteous.

Xiao Lu took the five yuan that his elder brother took out of his pants, which was still warm from his body temperature, and put it against his chest, then he let out a deep breath.

He decided that he would spend his whole life serving his elder brother Nie Weiguo, risking his life for him.

After leaving the hospital and returning to the guesthouse, as soon as I entered the door, someone in the lobby called out "Chen Lina!"

Chen Lina turned around and said, "Hey, Ji Huaishan?"

"I thought I would never see you again in my life. How come I ran into you here?" Ji Huaishan said, teasing the little satellite in her arms, "Come on, call me daddy." It was still a light joke.

Erdan immediately approached Ji Huaishan and shouted in his ear, "We have a father, and that person is not you."

Ji Huaishan was still dressed neatly in his military uniform, which scared the child behind him. Looking again, he saw three of them, each one shorter than the other, and the oldest one was taller than Chen Lina.

"Is this all your son's?" Ji Huaishan was a little timid.

This is not even including Nie Weimin. If he were here, she would be the focus of the crowd wherever she goes.

"Don't tell me that you are from the Mongolian Port Office." Chen Lina understood a little bit when she saw the team behind him, but she still didn't want Ji Huaishan to block her.

Ji Huaishan patted his chest and said, "Why not me? I have been at the border the whole time. You don't know."

The situation was not good, because He Min had gone to Hohhot several times and had never even entered the office, and everyone at the Umayyi Woolen Textile Factory knew that she was the secretary.

Let alone Ji Huaishan, the one who is stuck is her, right?

The two exchanged a few words. Ji Huaishan had just checked in and asked about Chen Lina's room. He then led everyone upstairs and said, "Tonight, let's have a class reunion. Family members are not allowed. Is that okay?"

Sandan and Deng Chun, one on the left and one on the right, grabbed Chen Lina's hands.

Her sister is hugging her neck. This kind of family member is like a little tail. Can it be cut off?

Chen Lina said, "Just in this hotel. I'll treat you, but I have to bring my family along."

There are three children in one room, so why bother them about what they do? In short, as long as they don't bother her, it's fine.

Chen Lina and her sister were tidying up another room filled with several children's smelly clothes when someone knocked on the door.

"If I remember correctly, the younger one is from Deng Dongya's family," said Ji Huaishan.

"So you know him, yes, he's from Deng Dongya's family, what's the matter?" Chen Lina asked.

Ji Huaishan whispered, "Deng Dongya is my distant brother-in-law. My cousin married Deng Dongya. Let me tell you this, Deng Chun is a bad kid from the root. You know, he steals money, beats my sister, steals, and stole my sister's watch worth more than 500 yuan. He would never tell me where he hid it. Really, this kid is hopeless."

"So, what do you mean?" Chen Lina was a little unhappy when she heard Ji Huaishan say this about Deng Chun. She saw Deng Chun steal money, but he only stole thirty yuan, which was only worth a standing ticket from Umayyad to Shanghai. It can be seen that Deng Chun is not a child who has become wild and has principles and bottom lines in his heart.

Ji Huaishan said, "Anyway, if you want to raise him, then do so. Don't say I didn't remind you that if something is lost at home, don't blame other children, just go find him."

Chen Lina didn't say anything, and the atmosphere was quite awkward, so Ji Huaishan said, "Then I'll wait for you, and we'll have dinner together tonight."

"Okay, take your time."

Chen Lina was still folding clothes when her sister brought something over and said, "Mom, this was put down by our uncle just now."

Chen Lina picked it up and saw that it was a box of chocolates, probably imported from the Soviet Union. There was a passage in Russian on it: "The most precious gift, for the one I love so much."

She rushed out with the chocolate.

Ji Huaishan had just walked into the corridor when he suddenly heard Chen Lina shouting from behind, "Ji Huaishan, stop right there."

There was no one in the corridor of the guesthouse.

Ji Huaishan paused in bewilderment, looking at Chen Lina who rushed out of the house. "What's the matter? What's wrong with you?"

"I want to ask you, are you always so rude, or are you just rude to me? Do you understand that it is immoral to give such things to a married woman, because you have a family too?"

"Chen Lina, we are classmates. I gave you a box of chocolates. It's fine if you don't accept it. What do you mean by that? Oh, do you think I have some improper thoughts about you?" He spread his hands and said, "Come on, you are so old and have given birth to several children. How can you have such narcissistic thoughts?"

"No matter how many children I have, no matter if I feel narcissistic or not, I don't even mention whether I will think too much about the things you gave me. Will my family think too much? Will your family think too much? If you are not a corrupt official who can make money every day, then your family can't afford this box of chocolates. Look at the label on it, 1800 rubles, how much is it in RMB, 100 yuan. I just want to ask, can your family afford it?

Although I don't know what your family does, but I know you have many children, so I want to ask you, have your children ever eaten 100 pieces of chocolate with liquor filling?"

Ji Huaishan took the chocolate and turned around. Behind him, at least three or four little heads from bottom to top were watching him with squinted eyes.

He didn't say anything harsh, just "We are looking for business, not fabric. It seems that the purpose of your visit will be in vain."

Does this mean that he will clearly refuse to export her fabrics?

Chen Lina spread her hands and sneered, "It's okay if it fails, but I look down on a man who can't even afford a new set of clothes for his own family but gives a hundred yuan worth of chocolate to other people's families."

As for business, if you can do it, do it, if you can't, forget it, but Chen Lina will never let herself be unhappy.

After all, the purpose of making money is to live a happy life. If you feel frustrated, how can you be happy even if you actually get the project?

She returned to the room, swept Erdan's stinky socks out from under the bed, and was about to ask him to wash them when she saw Deng Chun standing at the door with his neck tilted.

"I didn't steal my mother's watch," he said.

Chen Lina nodded. "Yes, I know, and I believe you too."

With just such a simple sentence, Deng Chun sat on the ground and cried out, "She really didn't steal it. Besides, she found it later, but she hid it secretly again and didn't tell my dad anything."

Maybe for Mrs. Deng, it was not a big deal. The child had already been beaten, so she could just hide the watch secretly after it was found. The child was still young and would forget about it.

But Deng Chun was beaten with a big whip by his father, and more importantly, the look of contempt and hatred in his eyes made the child unforgettable.

So, Deng Chun became rebellious, because if the adults behaved improperly, the children would follow suit and how could they be obedient?

The younger sister was busy wiping Deng Chun's tears when she suddenly jumped away and shouted, "Dad, Dad."

Nie Gongcai came in from outside, hugged his sister, and saw Deng Chun crying, so he hugged him too.

For Nie Gong, this is how he treats his son, just fooling him a little to show comfort.

But for Deng Chun, this is a great comfort.

Nie Gong briefly told Chen Lina that Su Xiangdong was Su Dong, and that he was leading an inspection team to the mining area and was developing a car factory.

In short, he came with money and projects, and with a demon in his hand, he came with a bang.

"They set out by car. It's thousands of miles from Shanghai to our mining area. Su Xiangdong first went to Hamitireng halfway, then turned back to Hohhot and joined up with the main force that was heading to the mining area to develop a new factory. He then took Song Jian with him to the mining area," said Nie Gong.

Chen Lina didn't quite understand, "What on earth does Su Xiangdong want to do?"

"We went to the farm to check Song Jin's room. There were some things he wrote in the room for his sexual fantasies and to molest Liu Xiaohong. Su Xiangdong holds those things. If they are spread to the mining area, it will create panic. After all, people who rap and molest children are the ones people hate the most. So, when he hands Song Jin over to the police, will he be a good man and a hero in the eyes of the people in the mining area? And what about the people in the mining area? If we only look at the surface, will they also be very grateful to Su Xiangdong?" said Nie Gong.

Chen Lina gave a thumbs up. "Indeed, although Su Xiangdong was criticized in his previous life, he still has a good reputation among the people."

Then, Chen Lina started talking about Ji Huaishan.

She frankly told Nie Gong about Ji Huaishan sending her chocolates, and said, "If Ji Huaishan is the leader at the port, then the fabrics from our wool textile factory must not be exported. But I just can't swallow this. I don't know how such a bad apple could sneak into our 76th class. His family is not rich and he has many children, but he actually had the nerve to send me chocolates."

The laborers are about to be paid, and the charming Miss Chen has to thank He Min for leading the way. Otherwise, she seems to meet admirers wherever she goes on business trips.

So he asked, "Is this business very important to you?"

"Of course it is important. After all, we can only sell a certain amount of cloth at a time as wholesalers, while the exports at the port are tons. We are the only woolen textile factory in the border area, so we should handle this business."

Just at this moment, someone knocked on the door.

A young soldier in military uniform and red shoulder straps came in. When he saw Nie Gong opening the door, he saluted him and said, "Hello, comrade. Is Comrade Chen Lina here? This is a letter from our leader to her."

"Is your leader Ji Huaishan?" asked Nie Gong.

"yes."

Chen Lina looked back and said, "I am Chen Lina, what's wrong?"

"Our leader said that he has booked a private room and that the two of them will have dinner together in the evening. He has a lot of things to talk to you about," said the soldier.

The worker then asked Chen Lina, "Do you still want to see him?"

"I don't want to see a man who invites other women to dinner while his wife and children are hungry. What's more, he even used my cloth to get me caught. He is despicable and shameless. I will go to court and sue him." Chen Lina was so angry that she danced with her hands and her voice sounded a bit like daylily.

"Then I'll help you meet him." said the worker.

Ji Huaishan, arm wrestling, temple tapping, he hasn't woken up yet.

In fact, there is a reason why Ji Huaishan asked Chen Lina out after scolding her last year.

After he returned to his room, he looked at the box of chocolates for a long time, then turned around and called his wife.

He worked at the Hohhot Port, but his wife was far away in Shanghai, working in a fabric factory.

In a year, the two of us can only take one family visit leave at most. Either you come to see me or I come to see you.

The current situation is that the closer you get to the border, the richer the place, where life is actually easier and the cost of living is not high, while the further inland you go, the more expensive the vegetables are and the lower the wages are. It may seem prosperous, but life is very stressful.

He asked his wife if the money he sent was enough.

The wife said on the phone, "Enough, of course. Recently, I found that I can pick up fresh and cheap vegetables at the big market at around five in the morning. Your daughter is fine, but your three sons are really wasteful of cloth and food. Look at you, you come to work every year, and you plant one crop every time you work. Don't you have to use rice, noodles, and cloth to feed them all? I don't blame you. Guarding the country is your responsibility. Just do your job well and don't worry about us. No matter how hard, hungry, or tired I am, I will still bring them up well for you."

Ji Huaishan rubbed his eyes and suddenly slapped himself twice.

Really? When has his girlfriend ever eaten a chocolate that costs ten dollars? His lover would run to the big market at five in the morning just to grab some cheap food.

She worked in a printing factory, and after get off work she would bring matchboxes home to paste to supplement the family income.

When would she ever be willing to eat a piece of chocolate? She thought to herself that she had really lost her mind. No wonder Chen Lina looked down on him.

No, it's dinner time.

Ji Huaishan, who was full of remorse and wanted to apologize to Chen Lina, met the worker who was still prepared to win people over with virtue.

Seeing that it was a migrant worker, Ji Huaishan was quite shocked. Of course, he also felt a little embarrassed. After all, he was ashamed and felt very ashamed.

The worker sat across from him. When he saw the waiter coming to take his order, he waved and said, "Give me two bowls of fried noodles, one large and one small, and a pound of pork. I have a treat ticket here, and I'll give you two pots of Red Star pork."

Ji Huaishan took the second pot and offered to buy some for Nie Gong. Nie Gong waved his hand and said, "I don't drink, but I got the ticket. I'll give it to you."

Ji Huaishan then blew directly into the bottle.

"It was during the Chinese New Year in 1971. We were much poorer and hungrier than we are now. Your troops may not have been as hard and difficult as other places." Seeing the fried noodles coming, Nie Gong gave the big bowl to Ji Huaishan and took the small bowl for himself, sharing some with Ji Huaishan. He then used his chopsticks to grab some meat and took a bite. He then said, "My second son likes meat very much. When I went to Beijing for a meeting, I was given a big pork elbow and a rice dumpling. I didn't care much about my family at the time. Someone asked me for it, but I thought it was troublesome to carry it on the road, so I gave it away. As a result, when I got home, I saw that my second son had lost a lot of weight. When he heard me mention the rice dumpling and pork elbow, he said to me, Dad, I dream every day that you didn't give the pork elbow away, but brought it back to me."

Smiling, the worker said, "For two years, my second son kept talking about that pork elbow. It wasn't until we started raising pigs on the farm and pork elbows were no longer considered a novelty that he stopped talking about it."

Ji Huaishan suddenly thought of his own little girl, who would often stand at the door of the department store, drooling.

One time he asked, "Nannan, why are you standing at the door of a department store? What's so interesting here?"

Nannan said, "Dad, I like watching people eat chocolate."

He said, “Then I’ll buy it for you.”

Nannan waved her hands and said, "Dad has no money, and I don't like chocolate. I just like to look at it and I'm full after just looking at it."

Ji Huaishan, a tall man of about 180 meters, had red eyes and covered his forehead with his hands, unable to eat noodles.
