Chapter 24: Reporting Shen Zhiqing's Speculation and Profiteering



force

The leader looked at Meng Xiao, who had just arrived at the unit and hadn't rested yet, and who hadn't left after reporting his mission. He hesitated and stood there, wanting to say something. His brow furrowed, "Meng Xiao, why are you so slow after being away? Just tell me what you want to say! If you don't, go back and rest!"

"Report to the leader! I want to apply for a house in the family compound!" Meng Xiao said loudly.

"Why are you applying for a house, you bachelor..." He didn't finish his words, but suddenly realized and stood up from his seat: "Meng Xiao, are you dating? Which girl has caught your eye?"

"I have a partner. I met him during this trip to the countryside. His family is in Beijing. Tomorrow I will submit a marriage application to the political commissar! I have also told my family that you must not delay my application when the time comes. It would be best if you can help me urge it as soon as possible." Meng Xiao sat down on the chair and said seriously to his old leader.

"I have nothing better to do than to block your application? If I delay you from getting married, won't your grandfather come and scold me with his crutch? Oh, I didn't expect that, Meng Xiao, you could bring back a wife after completing a mission?" Meng Xiao was a soldier under his command, and he was really happy for Meng Xiao.

Meng Xiao couldn't suppress the smile that spread across his face as he thought of Shen Qingli. "Thank you so much, boss, for letting me take this task. You have to sit at the head table at the wedding!"

"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense and go back to rest. Then I really want to see what kind of girl can conquer a troublemaker like you!" The leader said and was about to drive people away.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I'll go back and write my marriage application." As soon as the words fell, the man strode away a few meters away. Only the voice was heard but the person was not seen.

"This kid!" The leader shook his head helplessly.

Meng Xiao returned to the dormitory without packing his luggage. He immediately found a pen and paper to write a letter to Shen Qingli to let her know he was safe.

Qingqing

Good luck with your letter.

I've returned to the army and am writing to let you know I'm safe. Please don't worry. I'll submit my marriage application tomorrow morning...

He wrote three pages of paper with great eloquence, sealed them together with the passbook under the mattress, and sent them to the front door to wait for the postman to pick them up before sending them out. He didn't bring much money with him when he went to the countryside, and he didn't leave any pocket money for the girl when he left. He simply gave her the passbook and would give his salary to his girl every month from now on.

Meng Xiao thought happily.

Back to the dormitory again, I picked up the paper and pen again, this time there were only a few lines of words on the paper.

Meng Xiao, currently the commander of the 720th Regiment of the Beijing Garrison, was born in Beijing on October 5, 1950, and is of marriageable age. I hereby apply for marriage. The woman, Shen Qingli, was also born in Beijing and participated in the national policy of "going to the countryside" ("Up to the Mountains and Down to the Countryside"). Her household registration is currently in...

After finishing his work and checking it out, he washed up, lay down on the bed and fell asleep. He was also very sleepy.

Of course Shen Qingli didn't know what was happening here. She was just being woken up from her sleep by a commotion outside the door. She was startled awake and hurried out of the space.

The voice sounds like Zhao Xiaoyun. What is this guy doing?

Hearing that it was her who made Shen Qingli, who was already in a bad mood, furious, he opened the door directly, without even looking at the militia next to him, and stared coldly at Zhao Xiaoyun: "Zhao Xiaoyun, who gave you the right to bang on my door? Do you believe that I will report you to the police for trespassing?"

"Shen Qingli, don't be so arrogant. You won't be able to laugh later." Zhao Xiaoyun turned to the militiamen and said, "Comrade militiamen, I reported her for enjoying capitalism. She must be speculating and profiteering, otherwise where does she get her money? Her money must have come from unknown sources. She only earns two centimeters a day, eats better than the commune leaders, wears different clothes and shoes every day, eats meat almost every meal, and even has a special single room to live in. A few days ago, she even hired someone to fetch water and firewood for her every day. This is hedonism!

She even bought a bicycle and spent money at the supply and marketing cooperative without blinking an eye. Where did a young educated youth like her get so much money? Comrade militia, you must interrogate her thoroughly. " Zhao Xiaoyun said this and rolled her eyes proudly at Shen Qingli.

Shen Qingli's heart skipped a beat when she heard her talk about speculation. Could it be that she knew about the deal with Mr. Jin Wu?

I felt relieved after hearing that. This person was just speculating. She even dared to report to the militia. She must be tired of living! Why does Zhao Xiaoyun have nothing to do all day long but stare at her? She's really like a mad dog, biting people for no reason.

Shen Qingli didn't bother to pay attention to her: "Comrade militia, I can explain everything this person just reported. If my money comes from a legitimate source, can I counter-sue this comrade for defamation and slander, and for undermining collective unity? Oh, she even insulted me before, and the captain and the villagers can all testify to that."

The leading militiaman, Yang Dagang, frowned. "Of course, the prerequisite is that you prove your innocence. We have to go in and search the house first!"

"Okay." Shen Qingli stood aside and made way for them.

More and more villagers came after hearing the news, and the team leader also hurried over. Seeing this scene, he frowned. Why does Zhao Zhiqing always pick on Shen Zhiqing?

Shen Qingli watched them rummaging through the desk, her heart skipping a beat. Among the pile of books were two foreign language books she had recently read! Suddenly, an idea flashed on her mind. In the study of the Space Villa, there was a work certificate that she had translated for a Beijing newspaper in her spare time in her previous life.

With a thought, she took advantage of the cover of her pajamas pocket to take out a small folded cardboard card from her hand. Now everyone's eyes were on the room, so she took the opportunity to take it out and take a look. She almost laughed out loud. It turned out that God was not going to let her go.

The work certificate clearly stated: Beijing Newspaper specially hired Ms. Shen Qingli as a non-staff member of our company to translate English and Russian books.

The red seal was very eye-catching, but the key was the lack of a date! She could probably use it to fool the militias first. She should get a response from the Beijing newspapers in a few days anyway, so it was a sure thing. She had confidence in herself!
