Chapter 83 (Catching Bugs) Two Letters
"Aunt Yu, why are you telling me this? You should know that I am your daughter's enemy." Ding Guo was puzzled.
She had misunderstood just now. Yu Shaofen's confession and attitude did not seem like she was speaking for Ding Nianjun.
Even though Ding Nianjun's act of reporting hurt Yu Shaofen's feelings, as Ding Nianjun's biological mother, she would not make friends with her daughter's enemy.
After all, not all mothers are Yue Hongmei.
Yu Shaofen smiled and said, "Just think of me as someone I want to talk to."
She did not tell her daughter about her divorce from Zhang Shengkai, because when she first met her daughter, there was more than just rejection in her eyes. If it was just rejection, she could understand it. After all, he had not raised her for so many years, it was normal for her to have no feelings. But her daughter's eyes also revealed disgust and impatience, as if her existence was a shame to her.
These two obvious emotions hurt her heart deeply and made her lose the desire to have a heart-to-heart with her daughter.
Ding Guo was different. Although this girl followed her and was not on good terms with Ning Ning, there was no calculation or sarcasm in her eyes when she looked at her. There was only inquiry and curiosity. Thinking of how she had just poked her head left and right to look upstairs, Yu Shaofen couldn't help but smile.
She is a good girl who hates evil, but she has her own dividing line.
Although she didn't know how she recognized her or when she was exposed, she had an inexplicable liking for Ding Guo. She even had a self-confidence that made her very sure that this girl would not report her like Ning Ning did.
She has been through so much, seen so many different faces, and developed this ability to judge people. In recent years, she has rarely opened up to anyone, but she has been holding it in for too long, and she really hopes that someone can talk to her.
The trust and calmness that should have been gained from her own daughter was unexpectedly given by Ding Guo, the girl who was almost harmed by Ning Ning.
Yu Shaofen shook her head. Thinking of the things she had heard, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine.
She didn't dare to think about how she would live if Ding really married into the Pan family and paved the way for Ningning.
Because of that blood relationship, she didn't know how to atone for her sins so that her heart would not be blocked.
"Do you want to come over to my house and sit for a while? I have something to give you." Yu Shaofen invited.
Ding Guo didn't show it on his face, but he was still a little alert in his heart. He shook his head and said, "No need, Aunt Yu, you should leave your things to Ding Nianjun. I don't want your things."
If Ding Nianjun finds out one day and starts to make some nonsense, although she is not afraid of trouble, she hates to get into trouble.
Yu Shaofen saw Ding Guo's caution and did not force her. She just smiled bitterly and said, "I have given her what I should give her. Anything more will not belong to her!"
The daughter not only severed ties with them in the newspaper, but also reported her.
When she first heard the news that Ding Nianjun had published an announcement in the newspaper to sever their relationship, she felt sad but understood. However, the subsequent report was like a knife in her heart, and she didn't want to understand anything. She just thought that they were not destined to be mother and daughter.
Giving things to Ding Guo was to make some compensation to him based on the blood relationship with Ning Ning.
Ding Guo rejected Yu Shaofen and even forgot to ask how she escaped from the Northwest Farm, where she was going, and how long she would stay in Fengning.
But Ding Guo knew that she was no longer that curious about Shao Fen. If she met her again, she probably wouldn't follow her like she did today to find out the truth.
Although Yu Shaofen and Ding Nianjun are mother and daughter, they are completely two different types of people and are not the type of people she would vent her anger on.
Although she was not sure whether this was Yu Shaofen's disguise, she now had no reason to vent her anger on her.
In the following month, Ding Guo met Yu Shaofen several times in other black markets in Fengning. He was surprised that she had not left yet. He also admired the woman's boldness, but did not go up to say hello.
Of course, this is a later story.
The next day, Ding Guo bought two pounds of peach cakes from the factory and enjoyed the benefits of being a family member.
Peach cakes are easy to break and look bad, so the workshop will let workers buy them as a benefit. Ding Guo heard other colleagues mention the benefit of buying broken peach cakes in the previous workshop, but she didn't crave it, and it was convenient to buy cakes from the system mall, so she didn't crave it when she heard others talk about it. Now that she encountered it during the rotation study, the people in the group wanted to express their friendship, and she happily accepted it and bought two kilograms.
Just as she delivered the pastries to the dressing room and locked them in her cupboard, someone called her to answer the phone.
It was Pei Che calling.
Ding Guo didn't want him to get involved in the conflict with the Pan family, but he wanted to have a sense of involvement with his partner, so he volunteered to help collect some information. After joining the main force two days ago, he took the time to make a few phone calls to the capital, asking people to inquire about the Pan family's recent situation and some other information. He compiled the information into a letter and sent it to Ding Guo. Calculating the time, Ding Guo should have received it, and even if he didn't, it would be a matter of today or tomorrow.
But he didn't call to ask whether the letter had arrived, but because the Pan family had recently come to his old man for help. Although he had asked someone to inquire about the situation of the Pan family without going through the old man, he couldn't hide it. The old man called his temporary residence and asked him in surprise if he wanted to help the Pan family. He quickly denied it.
The old man said on the phone that he also refused the Pan couple's visit, and said that the Pan family's affairs were a bit complicated, and told Pei Che not to interfere if Pan Dingfeng or other people in the Pan family asked him for help.
Although the Pan family has been suppressing Xiao Haifeng's investigation, they could not hide it from the eyes and ears of other senior military officials. They heard that something went wrong with the matter handled by the old man of the Pan family, and the other person involved was the child of one of his comrades. Out of curiosity, Mr. Pei arranged for someone to investigate. Later, he heard that Pei Che was asking about the recent situation of the Pan family, so he called his grandson.
"The person your friend's uncle hired was very smart. He knew that there were many obstacles to investigating this matter, so he investigated it openly while spreading the news, thus attracting the attention of different leaders in the army. The Pan family prevented the open investigation, but they also arranged a back-up plan, so the news was not covered up after all. But this approach is very risky and is a risky move. If it cannot be carried out smoothly, the Pan family will definitely use all their strength to control the person who spread the news. Fortunately, it succeeded." Pei Che's voice came through the microphone, "My grandfather said that the army has held a meeting on the matter of falsely claiming military merits, and is preparing to restart the investigation. They have also contacted the comrade whose merits were robbed that year, and the army has arranged for people to go to that person's hometown."
Finally, he whispered, "Guoguo, I didn't ask my family to intervene. It was a spontaneous investigation by the army. I can only say that Qi Guangming brought this upon himself."
Hearing his cautious attitude, Ding Guo rolled his eyes in amusement and said, "Even if you really intervened, can I still blame you? It's just that I consider that your two families know each other after all, even if the relationship is ordinary, I am afraid that you will be embarrassed."
In fact, the main reason was that the two of them had just confirmed their relationship, and she asked her partner to help her so much. She was worried that Pei Che's family would have opinions about her if they knew about it, and would think of some unnecessary things, causing some misunderstandings.
The capital's main investigation is into the issue of falsely claiming military merit, and other matters have nothing to do with the military there.
However, there was another thing that caught Mr. Pei's attention.
In order to pave the way for Pan Yuanzheng, the Pan family demoted several people who posed a threat to Pan Yuanzheng after they got into trouble.
Two of them had a good relationship with the Pei family, but at that time the Pei family was also being targeted. Mr. Pei was forced to stay home on leave, waiting for the investigation by the higher-ups. There were also people secretly watching at the door. At that time, if he stepped forward to help someone, he would only add fuel to the fire. Later, the Pei family escaped danger. After everything was stable, Mr. Pei found out where the two families had been relocated and asked someone to take care of them secretly.
This time, the people arranged by Xiao Haifeng investigated those who were framed and demoted, and found the locations of the two families that Grandpa Pei was concerned about. Naturally, they were exposed in front of Grandpa Pei. Grandpa Pei thought that the Pan family was up to something again, so he asked people to keep an eye on them.
When the information was fed back to the capital, Mr. Pei realized that the intention was to help the two families overturn the verdict, and the target was still the Pan family.
In addition, the news of the late Grandpa Pan's trusted subordinates claiming military merits was exposed, and he also learned that his grandson had asked someone to collect the Pan family's recent movements and related information. So Grandpa Pei is now extremely curious and wants to know who is trying to pry this big fish of the Pan family!
Pei Che was a very good grandson, keeping his mouth shut and not telling his grandfather anything.
He has to ask Ding Guo's consent first.
Old Master Pei was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but he didn't pester his grandson. However, he revealed some information to his grandson. He had been investigating the case of the two families being framed for years.
Two letters containing reactionary remarks were placed in the homes of the two families, imitating the handwriting of the two heads of the family. Their belongings were searched and the two families were convicted and demoted, but the whereabouts of the two letters are unknown.
If we want to help those two families overturn the verdict, we have to find those two letters and look for the flaws in them.
Mr. Pei suspected that the two letters should have been dealt with by the Pan family. Without the two letters, it would be difficult to overturn the case. However, the wind direction has been changing in the past two years, and Mr. Pei has been taking active actions. Once he seizes the opportunity, he will immediately arrange for the two families to return to the city.
Ding Guo was overjoyed to hear the news, but since she was on the phone in the office, it was difficult to say too much. She held the receiver and said, "I know. I'll tell my friend later."
Pei Che understood what Ding Guo meant. Ding Guo would tell Xiao Haifeng to facilitate his progress.
He smiled and said on the other end of the phone: "Well, if your friend still has questions, you can ask his people in the capital to go to the Third Ordnance Factory to find a man named Cheng Yuanchao."
Ding Guo said softly: "Thank you!"
Pei Che: "Guoguo, don't be so polite with me. By the way, what size shoes does my brother wear? I have two pairs of replacement military boots here, see if my brother can wear them."
Ding Guo reported Ding Dayong's shoe size and said with a smile, "It's okay. If he can't wear it, there are still two brothers. The youngest one definitely can't wear it. At worst, there is still my third uncle. There will always be shoes that fit."
In an era of material shortages, old clothes and old shoes were rare items, especially military supplies.
Pei Che whispered again: "Guoguo, I also bought you two pairs of military boots and a cotton hat. They are new. I will mail them out tomorrow. Please check them carefully."
The subject wanted to actively perform, and Ding Guo didn't want to discourage this enthusiasm, so he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait."
After saying so much, the two actually didn't talk for long before hanging up the phone.
At noon, she went to see Xiao Hong and asked her to tell her uncle that she would visit her home in the evening.
That night she climbed over the wall into the Revolutionary Committee’s family compound and went to Xiao Haifeng’s house carrying two salted fish.
Xiao Hong's aunt Song Guiying scolded her again.
This time Xiao Ling was at home, and she said with a smile: "You guys are almost catching up with the underground party's meeting."
Xiao Haifeng actually liked Ding Guo's caution. Now the matter has not yet come to an end, and there are many people watching him in secret. It is best to avoid other people's sight if possible to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Xiao Ling heard that Factory No. 1 was preparing to launch a new product, and wanted to ask Ding Guo about the new product and which process the approval had reached, but she knew that her father's matter was more important, so she waited in the living room while Ding Guo and Xiao Haifeng went to the study to talk.
After telling Xiao Haifeng about the information provided by Pei Che, he was shocked that Ding Guo actually had connections in the capital, and in the Pei family.
The Pei family, everyone in Fengning knew about the Pei family, but they didn't know much. When people mentioned the Pei family, they used the term "Phoenix Nirvana" to describe it. It had experienced two Nirvanas and gradually became famous.
But when he heard Ding Guo mention the two letters, his brows moved, and he raised his hand to signal Ding Guo to wait a moment. Then he walked to the corner, opened the safe, and took out two somewhat worn leather envelopes from it.
