Chapter 322
"Okay, you two should go quickly." Director Gao said, and continued to busy himself with his own affairs.
Lin Yan and Lu Fang have helped Bai Xiu Xiu with so much work today that they are exhausted.
The worst thing is that they haven't done any of their own work.
Lu Fang was used to bullying Sister Zhang and was not used to so much work.
She asked Lin Yan unhappily, "Sister Lin, what should we do now? We can't just continue to help with the work, right? How many days will it take to finish it?"
Lin Yan was also in a bad mood: "Who should I ask if you ask me? If it's just work, I won't worry. I'm just worried that Bai Xiuxiu wants to sue us, that would be bad."
It’s all Sister Zhang’s fault. Why couldn’t she finish everything they asked her to do before quitting?
That’s why they are so passive now.
"That shouldn't be possible, right? We told Bai Xiu Xiu that we exchanged jobs with Sister Zhang. When we're busy, there's nothing wrong with swapping jobs that each other is good at, right?" Lu Fang was not too sure.
Lin Yan sneered: "Okay, okay, have we worked for Sister Zhang?"
"This...it happened so long ago, there's no way Bai Xiu Xiu would have found out, right?" Lu Fang felt a headache just thinking about it.
What now?
If her family knew that she didn't work so hard, her parents might want to beat her to death.
"Let's think of a solution first. Let's go find Sister Zhang and let her testify for us. Otherwise, we won't be able to explain ourselves." Lin Yan felt even more worried, because Sister Zhang had already been bullied away by them.
If they don't work together, it will be difficult for them to find Sister Zhang.
I can only ask for help.
But they have a grudge against Sister Zhang, how can they ask for help?
Lu Fang felt upset when she thought about having to be so servile to Sister Zhang, who was usually bullied by her.
But there is really no other way now.
In front, Director Gao saw Lu Fang and Lin Yan talking about something and frowned: "Why are you two not working properly? Hurry up and work."
The two dared not move anymore.
After the others finished their work, they all went to mediate, and those who had other work also hurried out to work.
After Bai Xiuxiu and Wang Qiong left the street office, Wang Qiong took the initiative to talk to Bai Xiuxiu: "Xiaobai, what dispute do you want to mediate? How many families are you going to visit today? Let's see who has a heavier workload. We will do the smaller workload first and the larger workload last.
Do the easy ones first, and the hard ones last.
Is that okay? "
Bai Xiuxiu had no objection to this: "Okay, these are what I need to take away."
Bai Xiu Xiu handed the list she made directly to Wang Qiong.
After Wang Qiong read it, he compared it with his own and made a decision: "You have to mediate three disputes in total, and I have four. My disputes are more troublesome. I'll go first, otherwise, by the time you get off work, we may not have finished our work yet."
"Thank you, Sister Wang." Bai Xiu Xiu knew that Wang Qiong wanted to help her because she had just arrived.
"Just call me by my name. My friends and people in our office call me Xiao Qiong, so you can call me that too. I'll call you Xiao Bai. We look similar in age, so there's no need to be like them." Wang Qiong said as he returned Bai Xiu Xiu's information to her.
"Okay." Bai Xiu Xiu and Wang Qiong went to the first family that Bai Xiu Xiu needed to mediate.
The three families here all have disputes between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and quarrels between sisters-in-law.
Compared with Wang Qiong's disputes over houses and land, this is a little easier to handle.
Bai Xiu Xiu had already understood the situation before she came.
She had a preliminary judgement on who was right and who was wrong based on what was written in the document, and was just waiting for the face-to-face talk to see if there were any mistakes.
When the two of them got off work, Bai Xiuxiu's problems with the three families had been almost resolved.
As for Wang Qiong, he was stuck at the second one.
The quarrel was caused by three brothers. After the old man in the family passed away, the three of them should share the property. However, each of them felt that it was unfair and that they should get a little more than others.
I just came over to mediate, and the three of them started fighting again.
Wang Qiong sighed: "We can't solve the problem like this. It's getting dark. I think you should go home first. I will investigate based on what you said. If it doesn't work, I suggest you file a lawsuit."
Wang Qiong said this and prepared to leave.
The three brothers who started the fight were also dumbfounded, and Wang Qiong ignored them.
Took Bai Xiu Xiu away with him.
After leaving this street, Wang Qiong said, "All three of them need money, and everyone wants more. In fact, none of them is filial. When their old lady passed away, no one was by her side.
When fighting for a house these days, everyone wants to get more for themselves.
This is the third time they have quarreled, and every time they quarrel, I just delay it.
Wait until they can't bear it anymore, and then they will make up their minds.
Their old lady... is a good person. I don’t know how she had three sons.
I used to visit her often, what a pity."
Wang Qiong was in a depressed mood.
Bai Xiuxiu listened to Wang Qiong silently. It was not until they arrived at the office that Wang Qiong ended her unilateral complaint.
At the door, Wang Qinghe was already waiting for his wife.
After seeing this, Wang Qiong smiled and said, "Thank you for listening to me for so long."
"Xiao Qiong, you have helped me a lot. I like to hear you say this. You are a good person." Bai Xiuxiu said, and then looked at her man: "I will go back to get the things, and then we will set off."
The two of them returned to the street office together.
Wang Qiong couldn't help but sigh: "Your man has been picking you up every day these past two days. He's been really good to you."
Bai Xiu Xiu smiled at her.
After going out, Bai Xiuxiu sat on the back seat of the bicycle skillfully and put her arms around Wang Qinghe's waist: "Let's go home and tell mom first, and then go to celebrate?"
"Okay." Wang Qinghe agreed immediately.
When the two of them returned home, Mrs. Wei was playing with her two children in the yard. When they saw them coming back, the two children rushed over to them.
"Dad..." Yueyue grabbed Wang Qinghe, wanting him to hug her.
Wang Qinghe picked up both children.
"Are you back? I'll serve the meal." Mrs. Wei said as she started to get busy.
"Mom, stop busying yourself. Qinghe and I will go to the He family first." Bai Xiu Xiu hurriedly grabbed her mother.
Mrs. Wei immediately guessed what the two children were going to do. In the morning, He Ming came here to eat and ate voraciously.
There must be something wrong with the He family.
"You two should go quickly. My two children and I will eat first, and then we'll keep the food warm for you. Don't go hungry at their house." Mrs. Wei urged them to go out.
Bai Xiuxiu, Wang Qinghe and their two children played for a while before going home to congratulate their parents.
When they arrived at He's house, it was bustling with activity.
