Chapter 26 Uninvited Visitors
"Cousin?"
Ding Guo’s cousin, isn’t that also Ding Jianguo’s cousin?
Xiao Hong was a little confused.
Having decided to separate from Ding Jianguo, she didn't want to have anything to do with anyone else in the Ding family except Ding Guo.
For some reason, she had an inexplicable liking and trust for Ding Guo. Although she didn't understand why she had such a feeling towards Ding Guo, a girl she just met, it was as if... there seemed to be some kind of connection between them.
When this thought came to her mind, she even laughed, laughing at herself for being superstitious!
But this doesn't mean that she likes other members of the Ding family.
The filter that Xiao Hong had for the Ding family disappeared since last night. The more she recalled some details of her previous interactions with them, the more she felt that they were full of utilitarianism.
For example, every time, Ding's father and mother would ask her in a roundabout way about her uncle who was a leader in the Revolutionary Committee.
Although I would ask about her parents and other elders in the family, I would never bypass her uncle.
At that time, Xiao Hong didn't think there was anything wrong. Now she thinks it through and realizes that people were asking about that circle just as a side note, and the person they really wanted to ask was her uncle.
If she didn't have an uncle who was a leader in the Revolutionary Committee, would her relationship with Ding Jianguo not have been successful? Would she not have received so much courtesy when she went to the Ding family?
Xiao Hong figured out this problem and was depressed all night.
Ding Guo was a little surprised that the magnifying glass worked so well on Xiao Hong.
In theory, the effect will fade after a certain distance from Ding Jianguo, and the longer the time, the fainter the effect will be until it disappears.
In fact, it is not just the effect of the magnifying glass. Xiao Hong is not like Ding Jianguo, who was brainwashed by Yue Hongmei since childhood. Her protection of Ding Nianjun over the years has become deeply rooted and has even formed a conditioned reflex that is not so easy to eliminate.
Xiao Hong and Ding Jianguo had only been dating for about a year. They had feelings for each other, but they were not in love to the point of being desperate and unable to live without each other.
If this girl hadn't seen the other side of the Ding family, it would have been natural for her to be with Ding Jianguo.
But if she discovers a problem that shocks her worldview, she will make a decisive choice, just like in the book, when she was completely heartbroken and divorced Ding Jianguo without hesitation with her two children.
Magnifying Ding Jianguo's shortcomings was like clearing away the fog in front of her eyes, and she saw another side of the Ding family, which was a matter of principle.
The effect is naturally surprisingly good.
Ding Guo understood Xiao Hong's dilemma and smiled gently, "Just tell me the approximate recruitment time, and I'll ask for the rest myself. Whether my cousin can get the job depends on his luck!"
After thinking for a while, he added: "My cousin is not the same kind of person as Ding Jianguo and his friends. I have several cousins, but not many of them are people I am willing to support."
The Ding family includes people like Ding Zhigang and Ding Jianguo, as well as her third uncle and aunt’s family who are worth her protection.
Xiao Hong smiled and said, "Sister Ding Guo, I am actually a little paranoid. The approximate time is half a month later. You can ask your cousin to come a few days in advance. I will tell you the specific information as soon as the factory union decides."
Ding Guo has a frank personality. She simply hates her biological parents and siblings, but it turns out that her family is really hard to describe.
What good parents would marry their biological daughter to a fool for the sake of an adopted daughter?
On the contrary, the people she admires must be as frank as she is.
You can't generalize to everyone.
After figuring this out, Xiao Hong felt much more relieved.
Ding Guo smiled and said, "Thank you. I wish you a happy breakup in advance. I hope the next one will be better!"
"Puchi!" Xiao Hong laughed, and there was a hint of relief on her youthful face.
The slight sadness in my heart about the impending breakup faded a little.
After all, we have been dating for such a long time, it is impossible to lose feelings just by talking, but fortunately, it is not necessary for her to be with Ding Jianguo.
The two separated at the intersection, and Ding Guo went to the new house.
The furniture continued to be exposed to the sun, and a table was moved to a cool place. Ding Guo bought sandpaper from the system mall and polished off the cracked paint and some difficult-to-clean mildew stains bit by bit.
Except for furniture made of golden nanmu and suspected mahogany, furniture made of other ordinary woods have been polished and painted with new paint.
She wiped all the corners of the nanmu table and the mahogany cabinet carefully with a cloth and put them into the space.
Now there is a large square table at home. This kind of square table should be matched with two chairs, but the other chair is too broken, so Ding Guo confiscated it, so now there is a square table and one chair.
There is also an old foldable round table. It looks old, but it is not broken. After being polished and painted a new coat of paint, it looks pretty good.
A tall wooden stool, it was obvious that the wood was not good, the surface of the stool was full of holes, but the legs of the stool were good, not short or shaky. Ding Guo planned to make a cushion and fix it on so that he could sit on it.
There was also an ordinary wooden cupboard with a broken leg, which was just the right height after being stuffed with a few broken tiles.
At this time, it is still placed in the yard with the cabinet door wide open, exposed to the sun to kill bacteria and insects.
I'm still missing a bedside table and a wardrobe, so I can slowly shop around.
Looking at these "junks" that had just been painted, Ding Guo sighed, wondering if there was a time when she could live like this.
Ding Guo went back to the house and slipped into the space.
I was sweating after working all morning and smelled of paint.
I took a few sips of iced black tea first, then took some clean clothes to take a shower and do some laundry. After I was done cleaning up, I came out and sat on the sofa in the living room to check the backstage.
Ding Zhigang and Yue Hongmei are racing like crazy on the list. The couple is having a hard time today.
Especially Yue Hongmei. As soon as she returned to the unit, her colleagues who had been holding it in for several days started gossiping about her.
Of course Yue Hongmei would not admit it, but when she heard that some of her colleagues had even spread what she had said to persuade Ding Guo at home, saying things like marrying him would allow her to control that idiot and living in a two-story Western-style house, her expression almost couldn't hold back.
Another colleague asked her if she let her adopted daughter wear leather shoes but only bought cloth shoes for her biological daughter?
Yue Hongmei almost fainted from anger.
Why does Ding Guo tell everything to others?
Then, were the conflicts between her and Lao Ding and Nianjun’s life story also revealed?
Thinking of this possibility, Yue Hongmei wanted to faint on the spot. In fact, this was not the case, Ding Guo still relied on this to make money.
But all of the above almost made Yue Hongmei collapse, and as a result, she left an afterimage in Ding Guo's backstage.
Ding Zhigang kept a serious face all the time, and no one came to gossip with him, but he always felt that everyone looked at him with meaningful eyes, which was simply a torture for someone who valued face and was extremely vain.
Not to mention the torment I felt inside.
Another person who appears on the list from time to time is Ding Jianguo.
Ding Guo decided that she couldn't marry a fool.
Not only could this arrangement not be made, but the matter had to be resolved as a misunderstanding. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine how the Xiao family would look at him when they knew his parents had made such a decision.
When she sent Xiao Hong home last night, she specifically asked about this. Although he denied it, he felt that Xiao Hong did not believe it all, which made him very uncomfortable.
Xiao Hong actually didn't believe him!
So I must find a chance to talk to Ding Guo tonight. I hope that for the sake of the 500 yuan, she can take over this matter and handle it satisfactorily without making things difficult for him.
Dante Jianguo didn't expect that someone had gotten there first.
In the space, Ding Guo ordered a plate of scrambled eggs with cucumber and a plate of Kung Pao chicken, and had a delicious meal with fragrant rice.
During this period, she did not neglect her stomach or her diet. With the help of iced black tea and spring water, although her face still did not have much flesh, her skin was at least not as dark, yellow and rough as when she first came here.
The marks of old frostbite on my hands have also faded a lot.
Even the dry grass on my head, which I felt when I took a shower just now, is not as dry as it used to be.
In order to continue to supplement nutrition, Ding Guo bought a can of milk powder from the mall and made himself a cup.
I stayed here until about three o'clock, brought the furniture in the yard into the house, closed the doors and windows, and took a bus back to the staff quarters.
Not long after I got home, I heard a knock on the door.
“Who will come at this time?”
Ding Guo went over and opened the door, his brows immediately raised.
