Chapter 68 68 Straight to the point
When Ding Guo followed the address and arrived near Qi Guangming's home, in the corner of an alley in the residential area she had been to before, Yu Shaofen, holding a bag in her arms, looked at the red armbands rushing into the gate. Her heart turned cold, her face hidden in the night was pale, and her whole body was trembling slightly.
Even though the look her daughter gave her before she left was extremely obscure, her heart still skipped a beat.
Years of living in fear have made her more alert than ordinary people. Like a frightened bird, she will hide and observe carefully at the slightest sign of trouble, and will only appear again after making sure it is safe.
Although she was unwilling to believe that her own daughter would be so decisive, her instinct for sensing danger made her pack up her things as quickly as possible and leave the place where she had lived for over a month.
Yu Shaofen didn't dare to gamble. She would rather make a mistake in judgment so that she could make up for her doubts about her daughter later than put herself in danger.
As for the hiding place, she had already chosen it.
Hiding all the way out of the Northwest Farm made Yu Shaofen develop the habit of memorizing the surrounding areas every time she arrived at a place and looking for a suitable hiding spot in advance in case of emergencies.
Unexpectedly, an emergency really happened.
After watching silently for a while, Yu Shaofen touched her face quietly, then turned around and left in the cover of night.
In the textile factory dormitory.
Ding Nianjun bent over the head of the bed, hugging his knees, his moist eyes unfocused.
She regretted her impulsiveness a little.
But at that time, I had a resentment in my heart that needed to be vented, so I walked into the street office over there and reported Yu Shaofen.
At this moment, I felt very upset.
No matter what, that person is still her biological mother.
But it was also because of her biological mother that she was fed up with it.
"You shouldn't have come to find me, you shouldn't have come to recognize me."
She was annoyed by Yu Shaofen's behavior. Why would an escaped prisoner come to recognize her? Didn't she know that this would harm her?
"How can you do this to someone's own mother?"
Why didn’t Yu Shaofen use her brain to think about how much risk this action would bring to herself if it was discovered!
She had worked so hard to maintain her relationship with the Ding family that she even published an advertisement in the newspaper to sever ties with them. Why did they come looking for her?
Ding Nianjun's tears rolled down her cheeks. She resented her biological mother for coming to recognize her, and was frightened by her impulsive behavior. It seemed as if something in her heart was gradually fading away.
She didn't understand what it was, but it just made her uncomfortable.
After a long time, the uncomfortable feeling in Ding Nianjun's heart gradually dissipated.
It's not her fault, and she didn't do anything wrong. It was wrong for Yu Shaofen to escape from the labor camp. She didn't think about how much trouble this action would bring to her husband who was still in the northwest farm. She also came to find her and recognize her, but she didn't think about the trouble it might bring to her.
This is a troublesome woman. A woman like this is not worthy of being her mother!
Ding Nianjun's tense body gradually relaxed, he lay down, closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
On the other side, Ding Guo walked around Qi Guangming's house to get to know the surrounding environment, then took out a small speaker and listened for a while. He didn't capture any useful information, so he turned and left.
Not long after she walked out of the dormitory area, she heard someone calling her in a low voice: "Sister Ding Guo!"
Ding Guo turned around in surprise and saw Xiao Hong hiding in the corner.
Xiao Hong pulled him to a corner and whispered, "My uncle was right."
As soon as Ding Guo left, her uncle asked her to push her bicycle and wait not far from the family compound, saying that if Ding Guo didn't come out by 10 o'clock, she would no longer have to wait.
Xiao Hong has always admired her uncle's insights and judgments. Although he has not been able to defeat his opponent for many years, he is still the most capable person in the Xiao family, so he just comes out and hides in the shadows.
This place was not far from the guard post, so she was not afraid, but she was a little bored waiting.
Ding Guo was surprised: "Why are you here?"
Xiao Hong pointed at the bicycle next to her: "My uncle told me to wait for you outside and let you ride back."
Xiao Hong is not stupid. Ding Guo left home but stayed in the staff quarters for such a long time. In addition, she had asked her to help find out Qi Guangming's address before. So after her uncle gave her the instructions, she understood what Ding Guo had done.
She blinked and whispered, "Did you find it?"
Ding Guo nodded: "Found it!"
Xiao Hong didn't ask any more questions, but just reminded him: "Anyway, no matter what you do, you have to be careful. Also, my uncle asked me to tell you that there is a tree in the southeast corner of this family compound, which is close to the wall..."
Ding Guo laughed in understanding. Xiao Haifeng saw through her motives and helped to pass the knife. Although there was a suspicion that he was just taking advantage of her, she was still very grateful. She had originally planned to walk around the dormitory area to see if there was a suitable place to climb the wall.
Although he was grateful, he couldn't help but say to Xiao Hong: "Your uncle is very wise, but he's not ruthless enough!"
Xiao Hong thought about it and nodded seriously: "I think you are right, otherwise... humph!"
This "hum" contains many meanings.
Xiao Hong pointed at the bike and said, "You can ride back. It's such a long way. It will take you until midnight to get home."
Midnight is a bit exaggerated, but it does take a long time to walk.
Ding Guo: "Shall I take you home first?"
Xiao Hong's family doesn't live here.
Xiao Hong: "No, you'll stay at my uncle's place tonight. You should go back soon. It's so late, your brother must be worried."
Ding Guo didn't bother to be polite with her and said, "I'll send the car over tomorrow at noon!"
Xiao Hong watched Ding Guo leave and turned back to the family compound.
Ding Guo had sharp eyesight. When he rode his bike to Shengli Road, he seemed to see a figure walking quickly into a nearby alley.
Ding Guo peeked in when passing by, but it was pitch black inside and he couldn't see anything.
Ding Guo really wanted to gossip, but when she thought about how late it was, and how there were still red armbands on the streets these days, even though she was a good person, it would be troublesome if she really ran into one, so she just rode her bike over.
When I got near my home, I saw Ding Dayong waiting there.
Seeing Ding Guo coming back, Ding Dayong breathed a sigh of relief. He said angrily, "Sister, I forgot to ask Xiao Hong for the address of her uncle's house."
He should go with his sister, or ask for the address and go to pick her up.
Ding Guo waved his hand: "It's okay, you still know my abilities...oh, you don't know yet?"
She didn't tell Ding Dayong about her conflict with Qi Guangming and the fact that she was being followed.
He has never shown off his skills.
She still didn't plan to tell Dayong about Qi Guangming's incident, so as not to make him worry in vain. However, some abilities should be revealed, as they cannot be hidden for too long, so she might as well teach Dayong a few tricks and let him practice them.
After arriving home, Ding Guo parked the car and gave Ding Dayong a set of military boxing. Ding Dayong's eyes lit up and he was also extremely shocked: "Sister, when did you learn martial arts?"
Ding Guo also thought of an excuse, and said, "When I was in the countryside, the identity of the teacher who taught me was a bit sensitive, and he didn't allow me to disclose it to others, so I didn't tell you in the letter. It was also thanks to me that I learned some kung fu from him, otherwise I, your sister, wouldn't have the confidence to fall out with your uncle and aunt after returning. It's okay for you to know about this, don't tell anyone else."
Ding Dayong immediately thought of the people in the cowshed in his hometown village, and suddenly felt sorry for his sister.
His sister must have been unhappy living in the countryside, so she took such a big risk to learn kung fu from others.
Although his sister had written to them saying that everything was fine, his mother said that his sister would only report good news and not bad news. There were educated youth in their village, and they knew what life was like for the educated youth and what it was like to be ostracized and bullied by the locals.
After sighing, he scolded his aunt and uncle, saying that it was fine to let Ding Guo go to the countryside, but why not give him some opportunities and send him to his hometown so that they could take care of him.
Thinking of this, Ding Dayong became more calm about offending the old man and the old woman, and felt a little regretful that the offense was not too light.
"Sister, don't worry, I promise not to tell anyone!" Ding Dayong clenched his fists, his eyes a little red, and said solemnly.
Ding Guo was of course very confident in him and said, "Learn a few moves from me, so that you can have the ability to defend yourself when you go out in the future."
"Can I learn too?"
Ding Guo looked him over and said, "Yes, but you'll have to suffer a lot."
Ding Dayong was very excited, but when he started stretching his legs, he was no longer excited.
Fortunately, he really wanted to learn, so he could endure this little hardship. For fear of howling, he held a handkerchief in his mouth and bit it. The next day, he walked swayingly like a big penguin.
The next day when he went to work at the factory, Ding Guo thought of Qi Guangming's relationship with the deputy factory director and couldn't help but pay more attention, fearing that he would be tripped up. He didn't even go to the toilet for the whole morning.
It is not surprising that a villain like Qi Guangming, who is capable of hiring someone to stalk and attempt to harm a girl, would use other relationships to bully her.
Before leaving get off work at noon, Ding Guo was cleaning his workbench and pulled a co-worker over to watch his operation process without making a fuss, so that if someone framed him, he could find someone to testify.
Well, all those TV dramas and novels about palace fighting and house fighting in my previous life were not in vain.
It's a bit tiring to be on guard like this.
As soon as I walked out of the factory gate, I saw Ding Dayong waiting there pushing a cart.
Knowing that his sister had to return the car at noon, he came to the factory gate and waited.
"Hey, why are you here?"
Ding Dayong hadn't said in the morning that he would come over at noon. Looking at the car next to him that he had saved up, Ding Guo thought he was here to share the joy of settling down, and asked with a smile, "Have you got the stamp?"
Ding Dayong nodded and said, "It's all done." Then he said, "Sister, you can push the bike to your factory and ride it home after get off work in the afternoon."
Is this the car that was sent specifically for her after she settled down there?
Ding Guo, the elder sister, was very pleased and said with a smile: "This is the first bike you have saved up for. You can ride it yourself. When you save up for another one, it will belong to me."
Ding Dayong doesn't think so. If his sister hadn't helped him plan, brought him to the city, and prepared two job opportunities for him to join the transport team, he wouldn't know what he wanted. It was also his sister who inspired him, otherwise he wouldn't have known that he could build a bicycle by himself.
So the first car must belong to his sister.
Since Dayong was determined, Ding Guo also felt that this was a good character and worthy of encouragement, so she accepted it with a smile. However, she insisted on paying for the parts. If Dayong refused, she would not want the car. Ding Dayong could not win over his sister, so he had to take it.
She pushed the bike back under the factory shed and locked it, then came out to watch Ding Dayong leave, and then rode her bike to the garment factory.
On the way, he also went to the post office to mail a package to Pei Che.
As soon as she met Xiao Hong, she said angrily, "Qi Guangming came back this morning. But my uncle said he definitely didn't just come out of the police station this morning. My uncle will ask someone about it, and..." She lowered her voice and said, "My uncle will find something for him to do to distract his attention in the next few days. You have to hurry up no matter what you do."
Ding Guo's eyes lit up and he said, "Thank Uncle Xiao for me!"
In the afternoon, I was on high alert for several hours.
No, it was only the first day and she already felt she was showing signs of paranoia. This was not a solution.
A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you can never guard against thieves for a thousand days.
So, after Ding Guo took over the shift, she watched the worker who took over sign the handover record. After carefully checking it again to make sure it was correct, she went directly to the deputy factory director's office.
Su Dayong was actually having a headache.
He didn't want to bury such a talented person, but he had to repay the favor he had done to Qi Guangming.
You can't have your cake and eat it too, so he has to make a choice as soon as possible.
If he chooses to repay the favor, he will have to kick Ding Guo out. However, considering Ding Guo's contribution to the factory, a small accident will not work, but a big accident...
Su Dayong scratched his head. In just a few days, he almost scratched his head bald.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is getting closer and closer, and the production task is so heavy. If a major production accident occurs at this time, his two superiors will not be able to save Ding Guo.
But the price to pay is also very high.
As a factory leader, he didn't want to do anything that would harm the interests of the factory.
Using such huge benefits to repay favors...it doesn't seem worthwhile.
Su Dayong took out a cigarette, lit it, took two puffs with a frown, and then there was a knock on the office door.
"Enter!"
He hid the worry on his face and lowered his head to look at the report on the table. He heard someone knocking on the door and came in. Then he pretended to take a break from his busy work and raised his head. He thought it was the director of a department, but he saw a young face: "You are..."
Although Ding Guo's name is well-known, Su Dayong has never met Ding Guo in person.
Ding Guo has been working in the factory for a long time, and this is the first time he has met the deputy factory director.
She introduced herself gracefully: "Hello, Deputy Director Su, my name is Ding Guo!"
Su Dayong's heart pounded, his hands trembled, and the cigarette he was holding almost fell.
But he quickly adjusted his mood, came over to shake hands with Ding Guo as if he had realized something, and said with a smile: "So you are Comrade Ding Guo, I have heard of your name for a long time, haha!"
Although Su Dayong's expression was restrained quickly, it did not escape Ding Guo's eyes.
She came here with doubts in her heart, so naturally she stared at Su Dayong's expression. Just now, when she suddenly introduced herself, the flash of panic on the deputy director's face did not escape her eyes.
It seems that Qi Guangming really went to find Su Dayong.
Ding Guo shook his hand and took it back, then went straight to the point: "You know Qi Guangming, right?"
Su Dayong was shocked by the two consecutive direct attacks. He calmed himself down, took a big puff of his cigarette, put it out, and in the smoke, he looked at the young face not far away and nodded slowly: "I know him!"
Ding Guo smiled and said, "Then how are you going to deal with me?"
Su Dayong laughed: "Comrade Ding Guo, are you always so straightforward?"
Although it was unclear how Ding Guo knew about his relationship with Qi Guangming, nor how she knew that Qi Guangming had contacted her, but such a straightforward way of talking was really... unheard of.
And not denying it also caught him off guard.
It was like he just thought that the factory had found a talented person, but then his fellow villager and good friend called him and asked him to fire the talented person. He was caught off guard.
Ding Guo ignored his greetings and went straight to the point: "He failed over there, and the next step should be to touch my job. I don't want to be on guard against someone every day..."
"Wait, wait, wait a minute." Su Dayong looked slightly stunned. "What do you mean he failed? Did Qi Guangming come to you?"
Ding Guo looked closely at Su Dayong's expression. The surprise on his face didn't seem fake. She was surprised that the deputy director didn't know that Qi Guangming had already taken action. She said, "He found four young men to follow me and wanted to break my arms and legs. Now three of them are lying in the hospital and one is squatting in the police station."
As she spoke, she took out a brick from her bag and split it into two pieces. She explained and demonstrated to Su Dayong why three of the four young men were in the hospital, and crushed the remaining half of the brick.
Boom!
The sound of half a brick hitting the ground made Su Dayong shudder violently. Before he could react, he saw Ding Guo crush the remaining half of the brick with his bare hands. He was stunned and sweating. He even stuttered when he spoke: "Comrade Ding, Qi Guangming did look for me, but I didn't do anything to you!"
Ding Guo nodded: "That's why I wanted to ask. After all, Qi Guangming and I have such a grudge. He will definitely use all his connections to deal with me. I'll do an investigation so that I can have a better idea."
Su Dayong looked a bit amused and said, "Comrade, aren't you afraid of alerting the enemy by doing this?"
Ding Guo smiled and said, "If we don't cut the grass, you snakes won't come out of the hole? Let's talk about this thoroughly. Excuse me, can I continue to do this job?"
If not, she will quickly make plans for the next step.
Her experience of reading period novels in her previous life told her that this kind of conflict was usually framed in the work links related to the characters.
She had experienced Qi Guangming's methods before, which were vicious and cruel. She guessed that the next step would be to let Su Dayong help her with the overall situation. Losing her job would be the lightest punishment, and she might even be sent to jail.
Ding Guo didn't think she would have the luck of the heroines in those novels, who could perfectly avoid secret plots and teach the villain a lesson. It would be better for her to find out the deputy factory director's background first, confront him head-on, and then make plans for the next step.
After being hit by several direct single-handed attacks, Su Dayong calmed down.
And just now, Ding Guo said that Qi Guangming had found four young men to follow her and was going to break her arms and legs, which made him feel a little cold.
He had used scheming and scheming before, but he had never used such cruel means.
Even in his subconscious, Qi Guangming was not such a cruel person.
Su Dayong took out another cigarette and lit it, frowning and thinking.
