Chapter 030: Meeting the Heroine Again in the Black Market
It was already evening when Jiang Mancheng and his family arrived at the family compound.
The three of them had some steamed buns and pickles in the afternoon; they weren't hungry. It was just that they'd drunk a bit too much porridge. It was a two-hour journey, and they couldn't just eat right there; they still had some dignity to protect.
The consequence of not solving the problem was that as soon as he got downstairs, Jiang Mancheng jumped out of the car crying, saying that he couldn't take it anymore and couldn't wait to go home, so he went to the public toilet first.
Jiang Mancheng was in a hurry, and so were Jiang Nan and Chen Jinhua, who were riding their bikes. However, they still had some sense, propping their bikes up under a tree and locking them before scurrying to the restroom. Fortunately, it was cooking time at the family compound, so the public restroom was relatively empty, and it was still empty when they entered.
Although this public toilet was also in the family compound, Jiang Nan's family rarely used it, after all, they had their own toilet at home. This public toilet was mostly used by those living in the bungalows of the family compound, as those bungalows didn't have toilets. And even though the public toilet was cleaned daily, the smell was still unpleasant. Jiang Nan wouldn't go to the public toilet if he could help it. And today, he couldn't help it.
She quickly resolved her personal problem, and her expression relaxed, becoming a happy and bright face again.
Jiang Nan packed his clothes and prepared to go out with Chen Jinhua when he suddenly heard some noise behind the toilet.
This public toilet was built next to the wall of the family compound. There was a gap of about a meter between the two walls, which was used by the excrement collectors. Normally, few people went to the back part because the smell was unpleasant.
Chen Jinhua put a finger to her lips. The two of them dared not move, but pricked up their ears, listening eagerly to the conversation behind the wall.
Although Jiang Nan looked gossipy, he was actually complaining inside.
The person having this conversation really has no sense of crisis.
Before speaking, don’t you check if there is anyone in the toilet?
He is so carefree and really bold.
Besides, their bicycles weren’t far away, how could you not see them?
Don’t think about it, just listen to the corner, listen to the corner.
Behind the public restroom, a delicate female voice rang out: "You bastard, you didn't come to see me until I looked for you. It's been so long, I've missed you so much that I can't sleep. How can you be so cruel?"
Sun Qiaolian!
Mom, Jiang Nan couldn't help but complain again, why do you think about so many people when you sleep?
Last time, I couldn't sleep because I missed Lin Bing, but this time, it's someone else. Don't you ever change your love words?
Another male voice laughed smugly and teased, "Why, Lin Bing didn't satisfy you? Aren't you having a passionate affair with him? How can you still have time to think about other men?"
Cheng Dazhu!
Oh my God, Jiang Nan and Chen Jinhua both covered their mouths, their eyes wide open, they discovered a big secret.
When did Cheng Dazhu get involved with Sun Qiaolian?
Isn't he having an affair with Fan Taohua?!
He and Sun Qiaolian obviously don't talk much normally.
Jiang Nan was impressed. As expected, each of her neighbors was a tough guy.
It’s a mess. Too messy.
Jiang Nan began to reflect. She couldn't just ignore their brain waves just because she was too familiar with them.
Seriously, my dad always says that you shouldn’t look at people you are too familiar with too often, lest you know too much and reveal your true identity when you meet them.
Look, as a person who has a melon-eating system, she ate the melon too late.
Jiang Mancheng next door was also shocked.
Oh my god, although he had a vague suspicion, this was the first time he had heard it live. "Brother Fang Hongyun, you've been cuckolded so many times. One after another, I wonder if you're living peacefully down there."
The Jiang family members who were eavesdropping were shocked, puzzled, and admired, but Sun Qiaolian and Cheng Dazhu were completely unaware and continued to flirt with each other.
Sun Qiaolian raised her hand and hit Cheng Dazhu, saying coquettishly, "You idiot, how can you say that to me? Lin Bing and I are innocent and I treat him as my brother. We are closer than siblings, don't you say that? Besides, don't you know who I like? If so, you really hurt my heart. Do you know how uncomfortable and painful it is for me to see you every day but have to pretend that we have no relationship and I can't even smile at you? And you still poke my heart like this. I have given all my love to you in vain."
Cheng Dazhu laughed triumphantly. He knew that Sun Qiaolian loved him terribly. Lin Bing was nothing to her. She even looked down on Qiu Xiangdong. She only chose Cheng Dazhu. It must be said that this woman had good taste.
He held Sun Qiaolian's hand and said, "You are such a bad woman. However, since you like me so much, I will give you a chance. Will you come to the grove tonight?"
Sun Qiaolian rolled her eyes inwardly. Men are all the same, believing anything nice they say. Who likes you? I'm after your money, okay? If not your money, is it because you're ugly, your big talk, or the smell of cooking oil? They're all so confident.
But she is an old actress, and she nodded quickly with sparkling eyes, her voice getting anxious: "Come, I will definitely come, I..."
Cheng Dazhu didn't care about that anymore. He hugged Sun Qiaolian and started to bite her. His hands were even more dishonest and went to her key parts.
The sound, "tsk tsk tsk", sounded like someone gnawing on a pig's trotter, chirping.
Jiang Mancheng, Chen Jinhua, and Jiang Nan: Are they planning to hit a home run here? This is too outrageous, isn't it, right?
Well, although it wasn't in public, there were still listeners. And this was outside, key point, outside, not their kang.
But it was obvious that the two knew their limits, and soon they separated, breathless. Sun Qiaolian nestled in Cheng Dazhu's arms and said softly, "I...I have to go to the black market tonight, so it might be a little later before I can get to the grove. You know, Nanshan is the only one working in my family now. He's an apprentice, and his salary is low, so our family is in financial difficulty. But Nansheng and Nanhai are still young, and children need to eat well. They had leg cramps a while ago, so I thought I'd go to the black market to buy some food to nourish them."
Cheng Dazhu said "oh", stretched out his hand to push Sun Qiaolian away, looked her up and down suspiciously, and said, "You didn't come to me just to ask me to go to the black market for you, did you?"
Sun Qiaolian immediately began to cry out for justice: "How could you think of me like that? If I were such a person, may heaven send down a thunderbolt and kill me instantly."
She started to whine, but in her heart she was cursing Cheng Dazhu for being suspicious. Wasn't it his duty to go for her? Could it be that she could just kiss and sleep for free? What kind of beautiful things was he thinking!
Besides, she didn't believe in God. If God had a vision, why would she be living such a hard life? She'd already been living a comfortable life, so why would she end up in this kind of business?
She wiped away her tears and pretended to be heartbroken. "I missed you so much that I took the risk of asking you to meet me here. If you wrongly accuse me like this, I... we won't have any contact anymore. I'll just treat my love for you as a waste. Don't worry, although I will still like you, I won't bother you anymore. I will bury this friendship deep in my heart, savoring it alone in the middle of the night, crying silently. Sob."
Jiang Nan: Oh my god, Sun Qiaolian is the reincarnation of a Qiong Yao drama heroine. How can she be so good at sweet talk? Cheng Dazhu must be touched by this hook. It's not that the sweet talk is so clever, but who talks like that in this era? It would be strange if Cheng Dazhu wasn't confused if he met someone like this out of the blue.
As expected, Cheng Dazhu immediately hugged Sun Qiaolian and comforted her softly, "Okay, I know you're a good woman. You've been wronged, don't cry, it hurts me. How about this, I'll go to the black market for you tonight and buy a pound of meat for you and the child to nourish your bodies, okay? Look, don't cry, don't forget, we can't stay here for long, there are a lot of people coming to this public toilet, wipe your tears quickly, or people will see them. Be good and listen, ok."
Jiang Nan: Hiccup, hiccup, hiccup, I feel like throwing up, what should I do? She's so good and obedient, Cheng Dazhu, you're just a cook, how can you talk like a domineering CEO? How can she ever read domineering CEO novels again? Oh my god, why is her life so hard?
Jiang Nan looked up at Chen Jinhua opposite him and saw that Chen Jinhua was also trying hard to hold back vomiting. He raised his hand and patted his mother's shoulder, saying, "I understand your pain."
Jiang Mancheng next door rolled his eyes, but behind the toilet, the drama between the two finally ended. They straightened their clothes and left the back of the toilet one after another.
Jiang Nan cautiously leaned over to take a look. Oh my god, they were so cautious. Not only did they leave one after another, but they also went in different directions. No wonder she didn't notice.
It’s not that she is incapable, it’s that the enemy is too cunning, sob.
Hey, why did she become a crying monster? No, this is not good.
Jiang Mancheng and the other two emerged from the public restroom with pale faces. They walked to the nearby bicycles and exchanged glances. Hmm, they all looked like they hadn't seen much of the world. However, they quickly pulled themselves together. In this kind of situation, the parties involved weren't embarrassed at all, and they were still carelessly messing around behind the restroom. Why should they be embarrassed? It wasn't their fault.
The three of them walked up to the tube-shaped building with their heads held high and their chests puffed out, full of confidence. Before they even got upstairs, they were beckoned over by Old Lady Liu, who was sitting downstairs enjoying the cool breeze and chatting. Without a second thought, the three of them rushed over.
Well, it’s just gossip, who can complain about too much gossip?
The unpleasantness of the medical dispute that night has passed. The hottest topic now is that Old Wu was taken away by the police and Wu Chunli and Fan Taohua left.
The Jiang family naturally knew why Old Wu was taken away. Wasn't this related to spies? They didn't say anything and just listened to Old Lady Liu's talk.
Gossip is about creating an atmosphere, and Jiang Mancheng is particularly good at it. He would ask "what happened next" and "how could this happen" from time to time. His sudden changes of surprise made Old Lady Liu feel particularly accomplished. It was an above-average performance, and his story was much more exciting than usual.
"Old Wu must have done something wicked, otherwise why wouldn't he have come home in two days?" Old Lady Liu concluded. "You don't know. Chunli was home alone, crying so hard that no one could stop her. Guess what happened next?"
"What's going on? Oh, Aunt Liu, please stop keeping me in suspense and tell me quickly. I'm really getting anxious."
You see, Jiang Mancheng is just so smart.
Old Lady Liu's mouth was almost curled up to the sky. She squinted her eyes and had an expression that said, "I'm the coolest." "Fan Taohua is back! She stayed at home for a day, and this morning Wu Dachui came back and chased her away. I don't know what she's thinking, but she said she wanted to transfer Chunli to her name so that she would have only Chunli by her side and Chunli wouldn't have to go to the countryside. I don't know if this is true or not. If it's true, Fan Taohua has done something great."
"Chun Li followed Fan Taohua?" Jiang Mancheng couldn't believe it. Fan Taohua was not a good person at all. She was even worse than Wu Dachui.
"That's not a big deal. Chunli isn't stupid. If she follows her mother, she won't have to go to the countryside. She can just leave." Old Lady Liu glanced at Jiang Mancheng with a look that looked at a fool. "You can't even think of this. You don't look stupid at ordinary times. Why can't you think of this?"
"Oh, who can think as clearly as you, Aunt Liu, right? It's said that an old person in the family is like a treasure. At this moment, we young people can't compare to you." Jiang Mancheng complimented her twice, and when he saw that there was nothing new, he got up and went home with the mother and daughter.
It's just that they want to leave, but some people don't want them to leave. Granny Fang rolled her eyes and asked Jiang Mancheng softly, "Mancheng, is your illness getting worse? You haven't looked very well in the past two days in the countryside. You're a young man, you have to take care of your body, otherwise you'll suffer when you get old. Jinhua, you too, you can't cling too closely. A man can't always be around women, you have to..."
Jiang Mancheng's face was grim, exhausted from a sleepless night sabotaging the group's honey trap. Having just heard another big drama, he glanced sympathetically at Grandma Fang. Seeing the brothers Fang Nansheng and Fang Nanhai behind her, he smiled, a brilliant smile. "Grandma Fang, your Nanshan has started working. Did he buy some meat and bone soup for his two younger brothers? I remember you said your Nansheng and Nanhai had cramps at night and needed to be nourished. Nanshan has taken over Brother Fang's job, but his two younger brothers didn't get anything. They'll have to go back to the countryside. Nanshan must be good to them."
Look, how nice he is. He even found reasons to buy meat for them. There is no such good neighbor in the world. No!
The two brothers were eight years old, and their eyes lit up when they heard this. Granny Fang glanced back, muttering something inwardly. She turned and pointed at Jiang Mancheng, crying and complaining, "Mancheng, how can you be so ungrateful? Granny cares about you, but you're trying to sow discord between the brothers. Are you even human? My Nanshan is the most sensible, and you're ruining his reputation here! He's already bought some big bones once, so how much is too much? Nansheng, Nanhai, let's go and ignore this chatterbox."
Grandma Fang took the hands of her two children and went upstairs first.
"Grandma Fang, why are you so anxious?" Jiang Mancheng shouted at the backs of Grandma Fang and the other two. Seeing that they were getting more and more anxious, he shrugged and said helplessly to everyone, "I just care about the child. That time, Grandma Fang even brought a big bowl to ask for our bone soup. What's wrong with me asking a few questions? Really, I really don't mean anything else."
Seeing that Granny Fang was unhappy, Granny Liu also laughed heartily. After she finished laughing, she suddenly asked, "Do you know what happened to the Qiu family kid? When he came back in the afternoon, his face was as stinky as a cesspool. He didn't even say hello when he saw us. I don't know what happened."
Jiang Mancheng chuckled twice, but he didn't say anything. If he didn't say anything about this kind of thing, it would get back to him sooner or later. He decided not to say anything more. The relationship between the two families wasn't good to begin with, and if he said anything more, he might get mad at them. It was better to keep things to himself than to cause trouble. He was a very shrewd person.
Jiang Mancheng responded with a few more words, staggered up the stairs, and quickly entered the house.
The three of them set out from the West River Bank Brigade at four o'clock in the afternoon. It was almost half past six at this time. The three of them were whispering and discussing the gossip and the things they brought back from the West River Bank.
"Dad, Mom, if we get divorced and each of us takes care of one child, we can avoid going to the countryside."
Chen Jinhua: "I don't think so. Fan Taohua must know someone and have some connections. I don't know the specific policy. You're an only child, so you don't need to go to the countryside. Your father and I haven't paid much attention to it. I'll ask about it when I get to work tomorrow."
Jiang Nan smiled and said, "No need, I'm just asking out of curiosity. Dad, what kind of mushrooms did grandma give you this time? Are there any hazel mushrooms? I love eating this the most. Chicken stewed with hazel mushrooms is the most delicious."
Jiang Mancheng: "Yes, yours is indispensable. We will stew chicken for dinner tomorrow."
The three of them chattered away until it was completely dark at 8:30. Jiang Nan finally got up from the sofa, washed his face reluctantly, and went out dressed freshly.
With the space and a spare 1,000 Chigua coins, Jiang Nan decisively bought a wig, a voice changer, and some makeup, hoping no one would recognize her on her trip to the black market. During her recent trips to the countryside, she'd thoroughly browsed the system mall. It was like Taobao in the future, with everything available. But forget about drugs, weapons, and the like. Even if the main system wanted to protect the host through the mall, it would only provide legal assistance. Any other unconventional methods were out of the question.
And even if there was one, she would never buy it! Absolutely not!
Just kidding, tomorrow, she will be a police officer, and she will resolutely resist any crooked ways! She won't even look at it, well, she is so cautious, she can't make any mistakes.
That's right, the system has connected to Lan Qingshan's channel, confirming that Lan Qingshan and Director Shen will visit the oil field office building tomorrow to present a banner and announce the special recruitment of Jiang Nan to the police station. This trip to the black market is not only to stock up on supplies, but also to celebrate her job in advance!
Jiang Nan tiptoed down the stairs, making sure that no one in the building noticed her, then she quietly walked through the grove and headed towards the black market.
The oilfield's black market was located at the foot of the southern mountain. In the past, a group of hunters, about five or six, gathered here to hunt big game. They lived in a small house, just six rooms. They sold goods in the back, while someone stood guard in the front. If anyone came to investigate, everyone would flee up the mountain.
This is a large mountain range, very deep, and there are many mountain products. It is no problem to hide them for more than ten years.
Jiang Nan had a short crew cut, and the gatekeeper, seeing he was a grown man with nothing, let him in without saying anything. These days, selling things on the black market cost money, but buying things didn't.
Don't assume the black market is high-end or mysterious. While it might be a large-scale black market in major cities like Beijing and Shanghai, the oil fields, while wealthy, are relatively common, so there aren't many sellers. Furthermore, the oil fields are heavily regulated, so people rarely venture there. That's why it's so small.
Jiang Nan looked around and found only a few people selling grain, eggs, pheasants, rabbits, and farmers' home-woven cloth. There was not even anyone selling pork.
Moreover, everyone kept their heads down, not looking at others, squatting by the wall without saying a word. When they saw someone squatting down as if to buy something, the seller would raise his finger to indicate how much to sell it to. If the buyer was willing, he would indicate how much he wanted, and if not, he would get up and leave.
Bargaining? No way! This is a seller's market. If you don't buy, there are plenty of others. And if someone starts arguing with you, and you get anxious and speak up, you'll be exposed. Didn't you see that everyone's silent?
Jiang Nan regretted forgetting about this. The voice changer was a complete waste. She wandered around, bought a bag of white flour, a pack of White Rabbit candy, and exchanged some cake tickets with the storekeeper. Seeing there wasn't much left, she stood up to leave when she saw the heroine, Tang Xi, approaching from a distance.
She had also come here in disguise. Jiang Nan was able to recognize her at a glance, thanks to the system's assistance. Otherwise, he would never have associated this peasant woman with yellow teeth, rough skin, dry hair, and a basket with Tang Xi.
"Tang Xi is quite impressive," Jiang Nan said to the system. "No wonder she's the heroine. She knows what she wants and works hard for it. As long as she doesn't harm others, she deserves success."
[Host, are you still leaving? ]
"Why are you leaving? Tang Xi has some good stuff. Let's wait and see what she's selling. Let's buy some."
Jiang Nan pretended to want to buy something and strolled over to Tang Xi. Tang Xi opened the gray cloth covering the basket, revealing several large pieces of pork. There was pork belly, fat and lean, pig's feet, pig's heart, pig's liver, and even pig intestines. It weighed at least ten pounds. It was unknown how Tang Xi had managed to carry such a heavy load.
[Host, put it in the space and take it out when you are close to the black market.]
Jiang Nan: “…”
Jiang Nan tried hard to ignore the awkwardness. As a longtime pig intestines fan, she quickly filled up the pan. She also bought two pounds of pork belly, but just as she was about to start, someone squeezed in from behind and pushed her aside. It wasn't that the person was being rude, it was just that pork was hard to come by. Who wouldn't want to buy a few pounds if they met him?
Jiang Nan was actually quite skilled in martial arts, so she wasn't paying attention when the uncle pushed her. She was completely focused on her body, worried it might be like last time, with a sudden stomachache or something, so she didn't try to move. This time, surprisingly, nothing happened. Just when she was feeling happy, she was pushed and stumbled, and the pork belly fell to the ground and rolled around.
She quickly picked it up, looked up and walked over to hit the person, but then she saw someone she knew, Cheng Dazhu. Although he had covered his face with a cloth, it was still easy to tell he was familiar. This guy was really brave. Even his father, a man with a thousand tricks, wouldn't dare to come to the black market, but he, who was obviously a reckless man, didn't care.
Really, love is such a torturous little demon.
Recognizing the person, Jiang Nan didn't go forward. Although she was disguised, what if she was recognized? She turned around and walked around other stalls before leaving the black market. Coincidentally, Cheng Dazhu was walking in front. Jiang Nan followed carefully behind him. When they reached the grove next to the family compound, Cheng Dazhu turned and didn't go home. Instead, he went straight to the other end of the grove.
Jiang Nan's heart was itching. Without a second's hesitation, she quietly followed. Before she got close, she heard unusual panting. A man and a woman, as an experienced driver, Jiang Nan immediately knew what was going on inside. Cursing inwardly, she realized it was so. She checked with the system again, "Is it Sun Qiaolian?"
[Yes, host.]
"Why does she only eat grass near her own nest? She's not like any other petty thief."
[Because the grass is thicker near home, host. You forgot that the tube-shaped building you live in is, if not the best, then it's also a luxurious one.]
Jiang Nan was speechless for a while, then turned around and quickly walked home.
"Is it bad luck to be pushed down?" Jiang Nan suddenly asked the system on the way.
[It shouldn't count, host. I was pushed down because Tang Xi's things were too popular. Next time, if I switch to something less popular, this shouldn't happen again.]
Jiang Nan stroked his chin and said happily, "Then next time I can find a way to exchange things with Tang Xi myself, so I don't have to go to the black market."
Jiang Mancheng was undoubtedly the happiest person to learn that he could trade supplies with the heroine. He was a man who valued comfort over comfort, and the thing he hated most was suffering. It couldn't be helped; he'd eaten too much in his past life, and in this one, he didn't want to eat at all. He took on the task of exchanging supplies: "Leave it to me. Xiaonan has a system, and who knows what she might reveal if she keeps interacting with the space creature. I'll deal with Tang Xi."
"Dad, you can't have any bad intentions. Last time, I was just thinking about picking up a bargain and I got diarrhea. If you have bad intentions, who knows what will happen."
"Is your father that kind of person?!" Jiang Mancheng was unhappy. "I'm just exchanging supplies. I'm not cheating you. Don't worry."
Chen Jinhua hesitated and said, "Why don't I go? You two have terrible character."
The father and daughter were unhappy. How could they be in such a bad situation? They were so innocent. The whole family was happily playing tricks. Of course they were happy. Tomorrow their daughter would be famous and have a job. How could they not be happy?
While they were happily showing off, in the grove, Sun Qiaolian was carrying some meat, cautiously crouching down as she headed home. She cursed Cheng Dazhu over and over in her heart, "This bastard won't even start until he sees the rabbit." If it weren't for his well-off family and the fact that he was a cook, she, Sun Qiaolian, wouldn't have bothered to coax him. He didn't even take a piss to look in the mirror. How could a cook with a thick head and a thick neck be worthy of her, Sun Qiaolian?
In the entire building, the two men Sun Qiaolian valued most were Jiang Mancheng and Qiu Xiangdong. They were two of the most handsome men in the building. Unfortunately, Jiang Mancheng looked down on him, and Qiu Xiangdong was away from home all day.
Looking at the meat in her hand, Sun Qiaolian cursed Jiang Mancheng for having bad intentions. Her son Nanshan had to go to the countryside because he didn't have a job, so what was wrong with her giving up her job to Nanshan? Did Jiang Mancheng have to sow discord like this? He was really not a man! Nanshan had just started working and hadn't even received a salary yet, so how could he afford to buy meat bones for his two younger brothers?
Thinking of her son's words, "Let her take all the salary from now on," Sun Qiaolian raised her lips and quickened her pace. Her mother-in-law didn't want her salary, and now she doesn't want her grandson's salary either. Although her life was hard, she had a good mother-in-law and gave birth to three good sons. This life was much more promising than that of the ugly Chen Jinhua!
Chen Jinhua only gave birth to a daughter, and she didn't even have someone to break the pot with. She might be reborn as an animal in her next life.
Sun Qiaolian hummed a song happily and stopped when she reached the family compound. She walked into the house carefully without making any noise.
Happy days always pass quickly. Before anything happened, at noon the next day, around 10 o'clock, Director Shen Mingguang, Secretary Tu, and several other leaders came to the family compound carrying banners and ostentatiously walked all the way.
Seeing this scene again, the crowd, to be honest, was much calmer. They were also experienced old men and women, so how could they be shocked by such a scene?
When they heard that Jiang Nan had assisted in catching an oil thief and aided the police in apprehending a spy, their eyes widened. Last time, he bravely stood up for justice, and now he's catching both a thief and a spy. Holy crap, is Building 4 about to produce a big shot?!
The old men and women didn't dare to make a sound, fearing that they were dreaming. Shen Mingguang was very satisfied with this. Look, everyone can't believe it. Doesn't this just show that Jiang Nan has made great contributions? Then, isn't it a natural thing for them to recruit Jiang Nan into the police station?
Thinking of this, Shen Mingguang cleared his throat and said seriously, "In view of Comrade Jiang Nan's special contributions, all the staff of the Oilfield Police Station have decided to recruit Jiang Nan into the police force. He will give full play to his strengths and continue to contribute to the oilfield. On behalf of all the staff of the 10th Operations Office Oilfield Police Station, I warmly welcome Comrade Jiang Nan to join us. I hope that Comrade Jiang Nan will perform his duties conscientiously and serve the people wholeheartedly in the future!"
After he finished speaking, he was the first to start clapping. The old men and women followed suit in a daze, and with someone taking the lead, more people followed suit, clapping with a strange and angry enthusiasm.
Suddenly, Old Lady Liu let out a loud cry, breaking the warm silence.
"Oh my god, comrades police, are you sure? Jiang Nan wants to be a police officer? She...she's a medical troublemaker, and you even want someone like that?!"
Shen Mingguang frowned, but seeing that it was an old lady who was speaking, he put aside his worries and said seriously, "They deliberately caused trouble in order to capture the spies. I can't disclose the specific circumstances, but I hope everyone will not believe or spread rumors in the future. Jiang Nan is a good comrade who has made contributions. Please don't say these things in the future."
"What kind of spies? Police comrade, are there spies in our oil field?" someone in the crowd asked loudly.
"This is still under in-depth investigation. Once everything is clear, we will tell everyone." Shen Mingguang said with a serious face.
"Impossible!" Qiu Pan'er's eyes widened bigger than copper bells. She didn't want to come back. She and Tian Jiaguang got along well, but she was forcibly taken back by her family. Now seeing this scene again, she screamed hysterically, "Didn't you hear, she is causing trouble in the hospital, causing trouble in the hospital, why are you looking for her? Aren't you police officers? Aren't you very observant? How can you be so confused! She, Jiang Nan, has caused trouble in the hospital, and if you can accept someone like her, then I can too. How am I worse than her? I am obviously better, I..."
Well, no one connected the medical dispute with catching spies. I don’t know if it’s because everyone is too naive or because Jiang Nan’s acting is too good.
Old Mrs. Qiu was originally jealous to the point of her eyes turning red. Seeing the leaders' expressions change and their displeasure evident, she quickly twisted her granddaughter's arm and said with an apologetic smile, "My daughter Pan'er also graduated from high school. She just can't find a job and is anxious. Don't be offended, leaders. I'll take her back right away."
Sun Qiaolian's eyes sparkled, and she smiled and congratulated Jiang Nan: "Xiao Nan, what level of worker are you going to be when you get in? How is it determined?"
Director Shen glanced at Sun Qiaolian, nodded to Jiang Nan, and said softly, "Comrade Jiang Nan, please go to the police station this afternoon to complete the employment procedures and officially start work tomorrow. Can you do this?"
