Chapter 153 Husband, please cooperate
Seeing Jiang Duo staring at her with a look of deep concern, Mingzhu put the money in her pocket, raised her hands to hug his waist, looked up and asked: "What's wrong? Wasn't the suspicion of being wrongly accused just now cleared? Why do you still look unhappy? Are you worried about something?"
Jiang Duo hugged her in his arms, one hand around her waist, the other hand gently stroking the back of her head, hesitating for a long time, and finally... couldn't speak.
He couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, didn't want to mention the past, and didn't want her to know about the past.
Wait a little longer.
Just as Lao Lin said, from now on he will try to overcome and let go, and when the past is mentioned again and he feels pain in his heart, he will tell her about it as if it were a painless old thing...
Then they can discuss whether to stay here or go back.
Mingzhu looked at Jiang Duo like this, although she didn't know what he was struggling with, but how could she just stand by and watch her man in a bad mood?
She jumped up with a smile, and Jiang Duo was already used to her sudden bear hug, and instinctively held her body at the first time.
Mingzhu sat on his arm, her fingers stroking his cheek in an ambiguous way, her tone was deliberately seductive: "My dear, cooperate with me, let me absorb some Yang energy and replenish my Yin energy."
After she finished speaking, she bent down and kissed his lips...
Jiang Duo had come out of his confusion, and his whole body was boiling with excitement when Mingzhu gently teased him.
He put Mingzhu directly on the bed, changing from passive to active.
Mingzhu was a little happy for a while. Since the "Wang Jue" incident, this was the first time that Jiang Duo cooperated so obediently.
The two of them were passionate and affectionate.
But Jiang Duo still had some reason in him, and he stopped at the last moment. He hugged her tightly and adjusted his heavy breathing.
Mingzhu hesitated whether to tell him that she had let Wang Jue go.
But I thought, if I let go of someone in just two days, wouldn't it make me seem...too unreliable?
Forget it, let's wait a little longer, anyway, this is pretty good for now.
After the two of them hugged each other quietly for a while, Mingzhu asked, "What happened to you just now? Did your leader say something to you?"
"Nothing."
Mingzhu turned over, climbed on top of Jiang Duo and pressed him down, pinching his tense cheeks, "Let me ask you, what is the relationship between you and your leader? It should be more than just a superior-subordinate relationship, right?"
"He is my uncle's friend. I came here to work with his help."
Mingzhu suddenly realized, "Turns out he's a big supporter. He's such a high-ranking official, you better hold on tight and don't be too stubborn, okay?"
Jiang Duo looked at her serious look and smiled, it was really... there was nothing he could do about her.
Jiang Duo sat up, and at the same time lifted up Mingzhu who was pressing on him. He casually helped her straighten her clothes which were messed up by him just now. "I have to get back to the unit. I can't delay my work because of Huang Yu's things."
Mingzhu got off Jiang Duo readily and told him about what happened to Liu Caiqing and his mother.
Jiang Duo tidied his clothes and said calmly, "Even if the Huang family doesn't pursue the matter, Liu Caiqing can't get away."
"Why?"
"I can't say much about work, but the higher-ups have already sent people to investigate him, so you don't have to worry about it, just listen to the news."
Mingzhu couldn't help but worry, "Then can his divorce be handled faster? I'm worried that by the time he has been punished, the divorce notice won't come out, and it will implicate Sister Guimei."
Jiang Duo: "There are procedures for this kind of thing, and we can't interfere. However, the divorce application was submitted by him, and as long as he doesn't withdraw it, there shouldn't be any big problems."
That's good, it's a good thing to get rid of a pest like Liu Caiqing.
For a long time afterwards, everyone in the family compound was secretly discussing Huang Yu's affairs.
After Li Yinglan came back from the city, she felt ashamed of the scandal, and the murderer had not been found yet. She was so angry that she could not get over it. For several days, she used the excuse of feeling unwell and took Huang Yu to avoid seeing people at home.
Mingzhu was also busy during these days.
Because the plaster was effective and women all loved beauty, word of mouth spread, and the product was not enough to sell.
Even if Mingzhu went to buy a batch of silkworms and "reluctantly" added another 50 portions of supply, it was still not enough.
Some people even asked around and took the initiative to find Wang Cuiju and Su Guimei in order to get the plaster.
Some people were smart and began to follow suit, selling "hereditary medicine patches" everywhere. The price was even cheaper than Mingzhu's, only 20 cents per patch.
Those who had never used real medicine patches would be easily fooled for the sake of beauty.
Mingzhu knew that this was not a good phenomenon. Even if those scammers had nothing to do with them, in this era, a big tree attracts the wind.
She repeatedly reminded Wang Cuiju and Su Guimei that they must follow her requirements every step of the way when they go out every day.
Go wherever you agree to go when you set out, don't change the destination at the last minute, and never reveal your address and home situation. After applying the medicine patches to customers in person, go home immediately.
At two o'clock every afternoon, the three must gather at the bus station.
Looking at Mingzhu's serious look, they all agreed and promised to act strictly.
But no matter how strict they were, something went wrong two days later!
On this day, Mingzhu and Jiang Duo had lunch together, took a nap, and left the family compound together.
Jiang Duo went to work, while Mingzhu went to the bus station to pick up Wang Cuiju and Su Guimei. She would pick them up habitually these days.
Half an hour later, Su Guimei got off the bus first. When she saw Mingzhu, she greeted her happily, "Why is Cuiju not here earlier than me today?"
Mingzhu smiled and said, "No hurry, wait a little longer."
The two chatted about Su Guimei's gains today and waited together.
After a long while, Mingzhu raised her wrist to check the time. It was two forty.
Wang Cuiju was a very punctual person. She had never come back so late before. This shouldn't happen.
She is the kind of person who doesn't like to put things off. When she saw the car heading to the city approaching, she turned to look at Su Guimei and said, "Sister, I'm worried. I have to go check it out."
Su Guimei also said immediately: "I will go with you."
"No, what if I am overthinking? You wait here for a while. If Sister Cui Ju hasn't come back within an hour, then you immediately go to Jiang Duo and Zhao Shengping to explain the situation. Remember to tell them to wear casual clothes when going out."
Su Guimei nodded carefully.
Mingzhu turned around and got on the bus with a serious expression. She felt that something must have happened.
