Chapter 76 Chapter 76 Eight Months Later
Sun Fengying was not in good enough physical condition and Gao Zheng was busy again, so the couple did not go hiking, but the rest of the people went.
Jiang Qiuyue and his friends met Hu Runze on the way. He looked at them eagerly. As a neighbor, Gao Juanjuan had to ask the old couple of the Hu family for advice.
After getting a favorable response, the group went out.
However, Hu Runze did not make trouble today and did not say a word along the way, which surprised Gao Juanjuan.
It’s just that Chen Weiguo doesn’t like Hu Runze and is indifferent to him. He also drags Lin Beibei and the others along when they play.
The adults were looking at the scenery while the children were running and jumping around, and most of the day passed quickly.
The next day Jiang Qiuyue and the others had to go home. Before leaving, Chen Weiguo held Lin Beibei and almost cried, saying that he was reluctant to leave Lin Beibei.
"All good things must come to an end. We are not far apart. Why are you reluctant to leave?" Chen Zhong held his son's shoulders. "When you grow up and can go out on your own, you can go to visit them anytime."
"Why can't you two be transferred together?" Chen Weiguo asked soul-torturingly.
Why?
The adults looked at each other, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. How could they have the final say in such matters?
Jiang Qiuyue and Gao Juanjuan said goodbye and decided to go to Haicheng together next time they had a day off.
After getting in the car, Lin Beibei leaned against the window and shouted, "Brother Weiguo, Sister Weilan, uncle and aunt, I will come again!"
He shouted very loudly, and people nearby were watching. People in the car also curiously asked what the relationship was between Jiang Qiuyue's family and the Gao family.
After the bus drove away, Gao Juanjuan and her husband walked in front. Hu Runze came out from nowhere and asked Chen Weiguo, "When will they come next time?"
"I don't know. I think we have to wait until summer vacation." Chen Weiguo hoped that time would pass quickly. "Why do you care so much about Beibei's family? You are not familiar with them."
"You have so many questions." Hu Runze said this and ran away again.
"You're so annoying!" Chen Weiguo yelled at Hu Runze's back. It was really infuriating. He said they were not familiar with each other, which was a fact. How could this guy be angry?
Normally he didn't like Hu Runze, because Hu Runze was the most troublesome person in the compound. It was Hu Runze who blew up the public toilet, making it so smelly that people couldn't go to the toilet for several days.
Fortunately, there is a toilet in their house, otherwise he would definitely beat Hu Runze.
The time we spend together is always short. When Jiang Qiuyue and his friends arrived in Haicheng, the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores were all closed during the Chinese New Year. There was nothing good to see, so they went straight home.
In the blink of an eye, eight months have passed and it is National Day again.
Jiang Qiuyue's life hadn't changed much in the past six months. Lin Beibei and Lin Nannan both had good grades and didn't need her to take care of their studies. Lin Zhengrong had gone on a mission in May and had recently been away from home on another mission, so the rest of her life was the same as before.
If there are any changes, the only ones are Wu Shuangshuang's belly getting bigger day by day, and Jiang Xiahe and Zheng Wenbin getting their marriage certificate.
To express her congratulations, Jiang Qiuyue specially sent some dried meat and salted fish back, and Jiang Xiahe's life finally settled down.
On the first day of National Day, Lin Nannan woke up early and started reading. She would go to Yu Guanghui's house to borrow books. Lin Beibei went to the door and called "Daya", asking if Lin Daya had eaten enough, and they were going to catch sparrows in the mountains.
After Jiang Qiuyue finished her breakfast, she picked the long beans from the field, kept two bowls for herself, and gave the rest to Wu Shuangshuang.
"Sister Shuangshuang, when will your mother come?" Jiang Qiuyue was scared when she looked at Wu Shuangshuang's belly, and she always supported Wu Shuangshuang carefully.
"It's only these two days. I asked her to come earlier, but she refused, saying that autumn harvest is the busiest time. In fact, I understand everything. It's just that my sisters-in-law don't want to let her go. With her at home, she cooks all the meals, and my sisters-in-law have a much easier time." Wu Shuangshuang held her waist and sat down. "Thank you very much to your deputy head Lin this time. It was originally Lin Rong's mission. He saw that I was about to give birth, so he went out of town to help Lin Rong."
"There's no need to be polite between you and me. I can't let you take care of three children at home alone. I won't be able to sleep at night." Jiang Qiuyue helped Wu Shuangshuang pick beans. "Listen to me. Don't do any housework recently. I'll cook for you. Let Lin Rong buy rice from the canteen. Let the sweet potatoes in the field be left there. Don't dig them up."
She was so scared when she saw Wu Shuangshuang digging sweet potatoes a few days ago that she hurried over to stop him.
Wu Shuangshuang smiled and said, "It's not that precious. This is not my first time giving birth."
"That was when I wasn't around. Now that I'm here, I have to take good care of you. Giving birth is like having one foot in the gate of hell. Nothing can be done carelessly."
Anyway, Jiang Qiuyue is good to herself and to those around her, and nothing is more important than their own health and safety.
Wu Shuangshuang was moved and took Jiang Qiuyue's hand. "It's great to have you. We are not blood sisters, but we are better than blood sisters. My husband Lin Rong said that it is a blessing for us to have good neighbors like you."
Usually, if there is something going on at home and she is too weak to help, and Lin Rong is not at home, she can just call "Qiuyue" at the door and Jiang Qiuyue will come to help. Wu Shuangshuang is very lucky to have a neighbor like Jiang Qiuyue.
"I'm lucky to have you." Jiang Qiuyue helped pick the beans and said she would take them home and fry them together before sending them over. "I always remember that when Zhao Shufen slandered me, you were the only one who came out to help speak up. I like your personality. You and I get along well."
The two were chatting and laughing when they suddenly heard someone outside say, "Let's go and see what's going on." Jiang Qiuyue walked to the door curiously and stopped someone to ask what was going on.
"I heard that Director Cheng from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative was having an affair with someone. They were caught naked by the Women's Federation in the abandoned factory building in our family compound!"
"Qiuyue, if you have nothing to do, go and have a look. I've always said that Director Cheng is not a good person. Every time I go shopping, he looks at women with lustful eyes. It's true!"
"Let's not talk about Qiuyue. I still have to go and see what's going on."
Seeing the people running away, Jiang Qiuyue also wanted to go and see the excitement, but she still went back and held Wu Shuangshuang's shoulders, "Don't go, there are so many people, what if you bump into someone later?"
Wu Shuangshuang was itching to go, and urged, "Okay, okay, then I won't go. You go quickly, and remember to tell me when you come back."
Jiang Qiuyue put down the beans, washed her hands, and went to see the excitement.
The person had been taken back to the Women's Federation by Director Zhu. When Jiang Qiuyue arrived, there was a large crowd of people gathered at the door of the Women's Federation and it was impossible to squeeze in.
Zhu Caixia came out and said, "Everyone, go back. If anything happens, we will notify everyone. Don't gather here. If you affect our work, you will be punished!"
Seeing that they refused to leave, she yelled, "Didn't you hear what I said? What are you doing standing here? If you don't leave, I'll take your men back one by one!"
Seeing that Zhu Caixia was angry, everyone went back with a lingering feeling. What made them most curious was who was the one who had an affair with Director Cheng?
And it was in broad daylight. These two were too impatient.
Jiang Qiuyue was also curious. Seeing that there was no excitement, she was about to go back when she met Qiu Hongyan who was returning from buying groceries.
During this period of time, the two of them would not even look at each other when they met. This time they met by chance, so Jiang Qiuyue turned around and prepared to leave.
"A bunch of gossips." Ever since Jiang Qiuyue and Wu Shuangshuang went to Zeng's house to cause trouble, everyone knew that Qiu Hongyan looked down on people from the countryside, and people from the countryside no longer associated with her.
Seeing so many people gathered at the entrance of the Women's Federation, Qiu Hongyan looked down on them from the bottom of her heart. "It's so boring. It's none of their business if someone else is having an affair. What's so good about it?"
When someone heard this, they immediately sneered, "Hey, isn't this a famous city dweller? We just like to watch the excitement, so what? You are aloof and noble, so don't go this way."
"The road is not built by your family, why don't you let me go?" Qiu Hongyan glared at the other party.
The other party was not in a good mood either. "Why do you mind your own business? You are so nosy and you say we are uneducated. You are so nosy. Do you have to taste the salty water when a manure truck passes by?"
"You... you are unreasonable!" Qiu Hongyan's eyes turned red with anxiety. "Just wait and see. Who knows, the person imprisoned inside might be one of your family members. Let's see if you can still laugh then!"
"If someone in my family really did something shameless like this, I would be the first to cut ties with her. Why would I laugh or not?"
Everyone didn't notice the excitement, so they focused their energy on talking about Qiu Hongyan.
Qiu Hongyan couldn't defeat so many people by herself, so she could only flee in panic, cursing in her heart, hoping that these people would fall into the shit pit so that they wouldn't have to have such a stinky mouth.
Jiang Qiuyue waited until Qiu Hongyan left before going back.
I met Bai Xiuxiu on the way, trotted over, and asked with a smile, "Your director was caught for having an affair, did you know that?"
"Yeah, I know." Bai Xiuxiu looked like she was worried. When she saw the house, she pulled Jiang Qiuyue and said, "Sister-in-law, I have something to tell you."
After entering Jiang Qiuyue's house, Bai Xiuxiu closed the door and said, "I was the one who reported it."
Jiang Qiuyue was stunned for a moment, and after confirming that she had heard correctly, she pulled Bai Xiuxiu into the house.
"At the end of last year, Master He said there might be a quota for regularization. Later, that quota was given to an old employee in the sales position. He has been working in the supply and marketing cooperative for several years and has the qualifications. I have no reason to be dissatisfied."
Bai Xiuxiu took a deep breath and said, "But a few days ago, the department suddenly notified us that Xu Meili would be promoted to a regular employee. I was very surprised. Such things would be notified in advance. I asked around and found out that the higher-ups had given a quota, but Cheng Guangsheng had been keeping it to himself, fearing that it would be taken by someone else like last time. He reserved it specifically for Xu Meili."
Bai Xiuxiu works diligently at her sewing machine job. Her performance and skills are not only the best among temporary workers, but also better than many regular workers.
And Xu Meili still can't even drive a car properly. Not only does she slack off every day, but she also takes advantage of others to protect her and often leaves her own work to others.
Bai Xiu Xiu said she was not convinced, very unconvinced.
Jiang Qiuyue understood, "This kind of person deserves to be arrested. You did a good job, but no one knows about it, right?"
"No, I wrote an anonymous letter of complaint." Bai Xiu Xiu had long since figured out the pattern of Cheng Guangsheng's affair.
"It's good that no one knows about it, so that others won't gossip about it. Life in a family compound is different, and you should try to keep yourself clean." Jiang Qiuyue said, "From what you said, Cheng Guangsheng often abuses his authority. Such a person should not be the director."
Bai Xiuxiu said, "He often brings things home. Sometimes when the quantity is not right, he asks his subordinates to make up for it. Everyone is angry but dares not speak out against him. I have thought that if reporting him once doesn't work, I will keep reporting him. With him around, I will never get ahead in my life."
"What will happen to Xu Meili if Cheng Guangsheng goes bankrupt?" Jiang Qiuyue asked.
Bai Xiuxiu said she didn’t know yet. “When they mentioned this just now, I didn’t dare to talk about it any more. My mental state is still not good enough, and I can’t stay calm.”
She needs to learn more from Jiang Qiuyue and the others to avoid being discovered.
"Don't feel guilty, just talk the same way they talk. Anyway, you're not the only one who knows about this." Jiang Qiuyue thought of something very important, "But who is the person who is having an affair with Cheng Guangsheng? Today I went to the Women's Federation, but Director Zhu wouldn't let us in to see the excitement, and no one saw who it was."
In fact, it will be revealed soon who it is, but Jiang Qiuyue is more anxious and doesn't want to wait any longer.
Bai Xiuxiu said it was Zeng Qian, "That's Xu Meili's mother, haven't you met her?"
Jiang Qiuyue thought about it and thought that she might have seen him before, but she couldn't remember his name and didn't know which family he was from.
"Didn't Beibei have a group fight with others before? Zeng Qian is Zeng Junjie's aunt, and Qiu Hongyan's sister-in-law. Now you know who it is, right?" Bai Xiu Xiu explained.
