The next morning, Bu Ling was woken up by Wu Yuanyuan as usual.
"Ling, what were you doing last night? Look at your dark circles, you look like you've been beaten up." Wu Yuanyuan wanted to laugh.
Bu Ling rolled her eyes at her: "Didn't I want to buy a clothes hanger? I went to buy one yesterday." With that, she walked past Wu Yuanyuan and went out to wash up.
She slept very well last night, but she didn't get enough sleep.
Wu Yuanyuan was used to her behavior and obediently waited for her to finish tidying up.
The two arrived at the state-run restaurant at just the right time; a minute later would have made them late. As they entered, they saw Sister Ma secretly giving them a wink.
Confused, Wu Yuanyuan asked directly, "Sister Ma, what's wrong?"
Sister Ma didn't answer, and Manager Zhu's voice came from the office: "Xiao Wu, Xiao Bu, come in for a moment."
The two entered the office, where Manager Zhu sat behind his desk with a dark expression.
Manager Zhu
Manager Zhu asked sternly, "I'm asking you, what's your relationship with Han Yu like usually?"
Despite her confusion, Wu Yuanyuan answered honestly, "Generally, we don't communicate outside of work." Why the sudden question? They knew they were ostracizing Manager Han Yu.
Bling continued, "It's terrible, Manager. What happened?" She asked knowingly.
Manager Zhu didn't answer, but waved for the two to leave: "When Lao Tan arrives, have him come find me."
Wu Yuanyuan was completely bewildered. She looked at Buling, who shook her head, indicating she didn't know either. As the two left the office, Aunt Ma called them back, gave them a wink, and led them towards the backyard.
The two followed
"Did you know that Han Yu got caught cheating last night? The Revolutionary Committee people came this morning, just before you arrived. Manager Zhu's face turned really ugly when he heard about it." Sister Ma sounded shaken.
Bu Ling thought to herself, "As expected. I thought last night's matter was over. How could it have alarmed the Revolutionary Committee again?"
"What? What's going on?" Wu Yuanyuan took a long time to process, still finding it unbelievable.
"You're a slut!" Bu Ling quietly reminded her, while simultaneously manually closing Ma Dajie's jaw. "You'll dislocate it." That's how she explained it to Ma Dajie.
Sister Ma looked away, thinking to herself, "As expected of Xiao Bu, look how calm he is!"
"No, why?"
"Yeah, how come it's so sudden?" Bling pretended to have just found out.
Sister Ma shook her head. "Who knows? You two both know about Xiao Han, don't you?"
Actually, Sister Ma used to have a pretty good impression of Han Yu; after all, he was good at interpersonal relationships. However, after he suddenly married Tan Xiao, and Tan Xiao became pregnant not long after, she immediately understood what was going on. From then on, her opinion of Han Yu underwent a complete change. No woman would be interested in a man like Han Yu.
"But...but this is cheating!" Unlike others, Wu Yuanyuan was still a little incredulous. Anyone would know the seriousness of cheating. Han Yu usually seemed quite intelligent...
"He probably thought he wouldn't be exposed," Bling said calmly.
Sister Ma strongly agreed with Bu Ling's opinion: "I heard that Han Yu had an affair with a former educated youth, and even forced her. What a man!"
At 9:30, Grandpa Tan strolled leisurely to work, and Wu Yuanyuan immediately said, "Master, Manager Zhu is looking for you."
"Okay~" Grandpa Tan chuckled and turned to walk towards the manager's office, completely oblivious to the sympathetic glances from Bu Ling and the other two behind him.
After Grandpa Tan entered the office, Bu Ling and the other two simultaneously pricked up their ears to listen to what was happening inside.
"brute!"
"Son of a bitch!"
"Bang!"
"Old Tan, calm down!"
Grandpa Tan stormed out of the office, his eyes bloodshot, and headed for the door. Manager Zhu immediately followed, leaving behind the words, "Little Wu is the head chef today," before disappearing as well.
The three remaining people looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Won't...something bad happen?" Wu Yuanyuan asked uncertainly.
Bling shrugged: "Who knows? There's nothing we can do about it."
Sister Ma nodded silently: "Alright, let's get to work. It's Xiao Wu's first time as head chef, so don't be nervous."
Wu Yuanyuan withdrew her worries and nodded emphatically.
Although Wu Yuanyuan's cooking skills weren't as outstanding as Grandpa Tan's, they were still decent enough for everyday dishes. So, while regular customers were a little puzzled as to why the taste was slightly different, they didn't say anything. After Bu Ling explained, they all expressed their understanding.
That day, Grandpa Tan and Manager Zhu did not return until evening.
That evening, after asking Sangshen, Buling learned why the Revolutionary Committee had suddenly intervened. She had initially thought it was thanks to Sangshen, but it really wasn't.
"It was that female educated youth whose reputation was ruined by Jiang and who was married off to Erlaizi that wrote a letter of denunciation overnight."
Bling nodded knowingly, not surprised at all. "What goes around comes around!"
Sangshen deeply sympathized. Who would have thought that a woman would walk for most of the night along a mountain path just to deliver a letter of denunciation? It shows how much hatred she harbored.
"Hey, by the way, do you know what will happen to Han Yu in this situation?" Bu Ling suddenly asked.
“That educated youth, Jiang, insisted that she was forced and was pregnant with Han Yu’s child. Han Yu had no way to deny it and would face at least ten years of labor reform.”
"What about Jiang Zhiqing?"
"Her class status was changed, but considering she's pregnant, the higher-ups allowed her to stay in Hanjia Village." Sangshen had no sympathy for this woman.
Indeed, regardless of the era, when it comes to relationships between men and women, people tend to trust women more.
