Chapter 112112 Ding Guo thinks Pan Dingfeng is too idle.
Pan Dingfeng will have to stay here for a few days before he can go back. In addition to buying gifts for the relationships he entrusted to him and visiting them one by one to express his gratitude, he also needs to maintain other connections.
Things are different now. His father was demoted, although only by one level, but he has become a commodity that many people need to carefully consider.
After this demotion, if there is no particularly outstanding contribution, it will be difficult to move up again, and his career will end here. If the Pan family does not have any rising stars, it will soon come to an end.
Pan Dingfeng himself was not very interested in a career in government, so naturally he did not have the bright future that his father had expected. And those who were used to the officialdom had such sharp eyes, how could they not see it? So in their eyes, Pan Yuanzheng was not really an outstanding junior with a promising future.
Everyone is waiting and watching, and the Pan family, who is in the waiting and watching stage, is still constantly consuming everyone's kindness because of some trivial matters.
So Pan Dingfeng felt unprecedented pressure and couldn't sleep the whole night.
The next day, Pan Dingfeng walked around for the whole day, visiting several old relatives, putting on a smile, acting like a grandson, and his back was bent.
All those uncles and aunts who used to speak softly and politely and were full of praise and flattery for him, started to educate him one by one.
"Dingfeng, you come from a cadre family, and you are a cadre yourself. How can Comrade Ding, as your family member, engage in speculation? You need to do a good job of educating your wife."
"Xiao Pan, speculation is an extremely serious illegal act. As a cadre's family member, your ideological awareness is not high enough..."
"Dingfeng, Comrade Ding took such a big risk. Is it because of financial difficulties at home?"
Every word echoing in his ears and his comrades' meaningful looks made Pan Dingfeng's face hot and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
But when I come back I have to face Ding Nianjun's whimpering.
Ding Nianjun knew that this incident had caused a lot of trouble for the Pan family. She could imagine what kind of sarcasm her mother-in-law would start when she returned to the capital, so she had to get Pan Dingfeng's sympathy as much as possible before returning to the capital, so that he would stand on her side when she returned.
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, Dingfeng. It's all my fault that you got into trouble. I'm just too insecure. I don't have a job in the capital, and my parents don't like me. I just wanted to save more money and have more confidence, so I took this risk. Woo woo woo, I know you must have been wronged when you went out today, so just scold me, don't keep it in your heart..."
In the next room, Lu Xiaomei blocked her ears in annoyance, while Ding Jianguo beside her hung his head and dared not say a word.
Lu Xiaomei was so annoyed that she felt Ding Nianjun was just unlucky.
Although she had followed Ding Nianjun a lot before and earned some pocket money, she was afraid of the ropes once bitten. It has only been a hundred days since she was punished last time. How could she not resist the temptation and follow Ding Nianjun again? How could she forget the loss she suffered before?
If I had stopped in time after a few small fights in the past two days, I wouldn't have been so scared. As a result, I lost all the money I made from those small fights, and also lost a lot of extra capital.
Lu Xiaomei had no way to vent her frustration, and had several fierce arguments with Ding Jianguo in the past two days.
After Ding Nianjun came out of the police station, the couple moved in here. During the day, they watched Ding Nianjun frowning and acting sad, and at night, they listened to Ding Nianjun whimpering. It was so annoying!
Why didn't I know before that this good sister is so responsible? When she is instigating others, she dances more happily than a monkey and speaks so beautifully, but once something happens, she becomes Lin Daiyu.
"No wonder I have no luck. Even if I had any luck, it would be gone after I cried." Lu Xiaomei muttered in a low voice with gritted teeth.
Ding Jianguo looked up at her and didn't dare say a word.
A few days ago, Lu Xiaomei said a few bad things about Ding Nianjun. Ding Jianguo immediately refuted her and then slapped her in the face. Then, Lu Xiaomei swung her hands and grabbed his neck several times.
Ding Jianguo was stunned.
He wanted to fight back, but Lu Xiaomei came to him with her belly bulging, pointed at her belly and said, "Come on, hit here. You'd better kill both of us today. Then go with your sister. Together with your brother-in-law and the baby in your sister's belly, the four of us will be happy together..."
Ding Jianguo was frightened.
As for psychological shadows, it depends on who plants them first in the other person's mind.
Whoever is passive will be controlled. Now Ding Jianguo is controlled by Lu Xiaomei. He dares not say a word and can only refute secretly in his heart.
In the next room, Pan Dingfeng patted Ding Nianjun in his arms, suppressed his irritability, and said gently: "It's okay, I don't blame you. Even if it's not your fault, the relationships at home must be maintained. This used to be..."
This was not used before.
Ding Nianjun's eyes showed thoughtfulness and a hint of calculation. She wiped away the tears in her eyes and began to beg Pan Dingfeng to take her to visit the Pan family's connections tomorrow.
Before getting married, she also asked Pan Dingfeng about the Pan family's connections here, but Pan Dingfeng only mentioned it briefly and didn't say he would introduce her to them.
This time, taking advantage of this opportunity, she asked Dingfeng to take her to visit various families and get to know them. Next time she returns to Fengning, she can legitimately maintain these relationships for the Pan family.
Pan Dingfeng thought of his parents' anger and what they said before he came, and refused with a guilty conscience: "You have to sit in the car all day tomorrow, and your body can't stand it, so just rest at home and accompany your mother. We will return to the capital in two days."
Ding Nianjun wanted to say something, but seeing that although Pan Dingfeng's eyes were gentle, there was a sense of strength in that gentleness, he smiled obediently and responded, but when he turned around, his eyes became sharp and he gritted his teeth.
She felt that her parents-in-law must have given her some special instructions.
This is to protect yourself.
Today is the weekend again. Ding Guo is taking a rest and comes out of the space and returns to Zaohua Lane.
The kang in the house has been smoked, the bread cellar is nearing completion, and construction of the toilet roof has begun.
She will be able to officially move in in a few days, but the man who brought her so much wealth has not made any move, which makes Ding Guo feel anxious.
In order not to arouse suspicion, she couldn't ask Xiao Haifeng again. She could only turn on the small speaker to collect the sound and walk around the house in order to lure the snake out of its hole.
But I don’t know if it’s because the news is urgent or the person has left Fengning and has not appeared since.
Ding Guo went out for a walk again and came back. Ding Dayong was helping Shi Guanghui and the others. Ding Guo said, "Dayong, I'm going out for a while. Wait for me to come back and make lunch."
When she moved some time ago, she called Pei Che and told him the address of Zaohua Lane. She also asked him if he had any mail. Pei Che said he had just sent out a package and a letter.
She had been estimating the time, and had gone to the post office to ask every day at noon since the day before yesterday. She also told the post office staff that her letters and parcel slips would be left at the post office when they arrived, and she would come directly to pick them up.
I plan to go over and ask today.
After arriving at the post office, the staff told her that the letter and the package arrived yesterday afternoon, but they were too busy and forgot about Ding Guo's instructions. The postman had already taken them out to walk the streets and was gone not long. He also told Ding Guo the route the postman would take today. Ding Guo did not have time to say anything else and hurriedly caught up with him on his bike.
Originally, helping someone in this kind of situation is a favor, but if you don't help, they don't owe you anything. Just chase them on your bike, just take a walk.
Ding Nianjun accompanied Pan Dingfeng to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things and brought them back. They happened to see the postman stop at their door, park the car, and seemed to be knocking on their door.
"Comrade, who are you looking for?" Ding Nianjun took a few quick steps and asked.
The postman looked at her in surprise, but still said, "I'm looking for the resident of this house..."
Ding Nianjun's eyes flickered and he smiled, "I live here too. Are you looking for Ding Jianguo or Lu Xiaomei?"
The postman was stunned for a moment before he said, "Neither. I'm looking for Comrade Ding Guo. Doesn't she live here too?"
Pan Dingfeng felt disgusted when he heard the name. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Ding Nianjun. She smiled and said to the postman: "Ding Guo is my sister. Do you have a letter for my sister? I can just give it to her."
She guessed right, the postman was really looking for Ding Guo.
The postman said, "There is a letter from Comrade Ding Guo and a parcel list..."
He turned around and rummaged through the side pocket on the front beam, found Ding Guo's letter and parcel list, and said, "Is Comrade Ding Guo home? I need her to sign."
Pan Dingfeng stared at the envelope. It was a special credit card used by the army. How could Ding Guo know anyone in the army?
Ding Nianjun smiled and said, "Give it to me, I'll sign for her."
A voice interrupted from the alley: "Don't bother, I'll sign my own letter myself."
In order to find the person more easily, Ding Guo turned on the small speaker. Before he turned into the alley, he heard the conversation between Ding Nianjun and the postman. He stepped on the pedal to speed up and turned in.
The car braked suddenly and stopped next to the postman. Ding Guo skillfully took the notebook and signed it, then took the letter and parcel slip.
Ding Nianjun bit her lip, her eyes a little aggrieved: "Sister, I don't mean anything else. I want to collect it for you and send it to the food factory tomorrow."
Ding Guo smiled at her and said, "I don't mean anything else. I just said I should sign my own letter. Is there any problem with that?" Then he turned around and thanked the postman.
Seeing Ding Guo's ungrateful look, Pan Dingfeng snorted heavily, "Hmph, you want to help, but does he appreciate your kindness? Why waste your time talking to such a person? Go home!"
Ding Guo looked at Pan Dingfeng in surprise and said to Ding Nianjun, "Your partner is humming so loudly, is there something wrong with his nose? It sounds like it's quite serious, go to the hospital quickly, if it's in the late stage, it will be troublesome."
After saying that, he rode away on his bike.
Ding Guo felt that Pan Dingfeng was too idle, and it was easy for him to get into trouble if he was idle. Since he came to Fengning and it was not easy for him to go back to the capital, it would be better to keep him busy and busy like a top.
I went to the post office to pick up the package first, and then rode my bike in the opposite direction of Zaohua Lane.
On the other side, Pan Dingfeng returned home with a gloomy face and carrying his things.
If it weren't for the fact that his family connections were too important to bear, he really wouldn't want to let Ding Guo go.
Ding Nianjun stood at the door for a while before turning around and going in thoughtfully.
Ding Jianguo was also resting today. The couple had just had a small quarrel over whether to go back to her parents' home or her husband's home. Lu Xiaomei defeated Ding Jianguo and was packing up. When she heard the noise in the yard, she didn't say hello to the outsiders. Instead, Ding Jianguo went out and said to Ding Nianjun, "Nianjun, I will accompany Xiaomei back to Lu's house later. You can go back to your parents' house for lunch. Tell them for me."
Ding Nianjun had something on his mind, so he didn't say anything. He just nodded and went into the west room where they were staying temporarily. While helping Pan Dingfeng sort out the things he was going to give away later, he said, "I don't know if it's a letter from my hometown or from where my eldest sister went to work in the countryside."
Pan Dingfeng suppressed his anger and said, "That is a special envelope for the army."
"The army?" Ding Nianjun was surprised. "How could Ding Guo know someone in the army?"
Pan Dingfeng snorted coldly: "Who knows, why do you care about her?"
Pan Dingfeng and Ding Jianguo and his wife went out one after the other. Lu Xiaomei saw Pan Dingfeng carrying two net bags in his hands, which were filled with malted milk, peach cakes in gift boxes, canned food, tea, etc. Every item he took out was a precious item. Then she looked at the shabby things in her hands, and she felt more and more uncomfortable, and she blamed Ding Nianjun more and more.
Ding Nianjun likes to make trouble, but even if she loses hundreds of dollars, she still has her wealthy husband's family to support her, and Pan Dingfeng to support her. What about herself?
The combined salary of her and Ding Jianguo is not as high as Pan Dingfeng's. Even if Pan's father is demoted, he is still a family that the Ding family needs to marry. How can the Ding family compare with his family background? Why did she believe Ding Nianjun's words!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, but she couldn't go and settle the score with Ding Nianjun.
Friendship is sometimes a kind of help, and sometimes it becomes a kind of emotional bondage, and we have to hold our anger inside.
Ding Nianjun was full of things on her mind, so she naturally didn't notice the tense atmosphere between her brother and sister-in-law, nor did she notice that her former best sister was now extremely dissatisfied with her. After sending Pan Dingfeng out, she locked the door and returned to the steel plant's staff quarters.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back."
Although this daughter had caused a lot of trouble for the family recently, Yue Hongmei couldn't blame her. She was very happy to see Ding Nianjun come back. After looking at Ding Zhigang's gloomy face, she also restrained herself a little and said, "Junjun is back. Where's Dingfeng?"
Ding Nianjun: "He went out for something. By the way, Mom, I saw my elder sister today."
When Yue Hongmei heard her mention Ding Guo, her face suddenly darkened: "Why are you mentioning that troublemaker?"
Ding Tao also rested today. After breakfast, she washed the clothes she had saved for a week. She went back to her room and tidied herself up. She was going to find an excuse to go out and help Ding Guo and Ding Dayong with work in Zaohua Lane. When she heard this, she came out of the room and laughed: "Does our family produce a troublemaker? Auntie said that Sister Ding Guo is a troublemaker, and now there is Sister Nianjun. Auntie, did Sister Ding Guo also mess up the family savings?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became slightly tense.
After a few seconds of strange calm, Yue Hongmei and Ding Jianshe shouted angrily at the same time: "Ding Tao, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Do you deserve a beating?" Ding Jianshe was fine again. Even though his tailbone had not fully grown yet, it did not stop him from talking tough.
But this time, Ding Tao didn't need to do anything. Ding Zhigang slapped his son on the back and said in a deep voice, "Who do you want to hit? Pick one and show me."
He felt that what Ding Tao said was correct, and even felt as if he had been awakened by a word.
His wife always said that Ding Guo was a troublemaker, but at most she just beat people, smashed the house, and ridiculed his parents. Although the family also lost some things, compared with the money compensated this time, those were negligible.
Ding Nianjun is different. She can do whatever she wants, but she dragged her family down with her. Now she has lost all her money and her reputation, but she has not said anything about compensating her family. And that jerk Pan Dingfeng, his wife made a mistake and hurt her family, but instead of comforting her or compensating her, he even lectured his father-in-law and mother-in-law. What kind of person is he?
As soon as Ding Zhigang got angry, the whole family fell silent.
Ding Tao gently provoked her and said, "I'm going to the People's Park to play. I won't be back for lunch."
She also went to the kitchen to wrap three steamed buns, stuffed them into a cloth bag she had sewn herself, and walked out the door quickly, missing Ding Nianjun's chewing tongue.
After Ding Tao left, Ding Nianjun started crying, her eyes tearing up: "It's all my fault. Ding Tao is right. It's all my fault. I ruined my family and made my parents worry about me..."
As soon as she cried, Yue Hongmei felt distressed and kept comforting her, repeating words like "losing money is better than disaster".
They are just her family, so she doesn't worry about superstition or not. Anyway, she can't let her Junjun cry anymore. She is pregnant. If she keeps crying like this, what if she gets hurt?
Ding Zhigang was very annoyed. It was the same thing again.
In the past, he listened to Ding Nianjun's talk and always felt that it was just the nature of a little girl, but at that time they were all harmless things. Now it is different. Now it is hurtful. He has worked diligently for most of his life, and now the numbers on his passbook are just a joke. He doesn't care about the nature of his little girl anymore and just feels annoyed.
Besides, Ding Nianjun's life experience was still a thorn in his heart. This time, instead of smoothing itself out, it kept stabbing him in various ways. And when his mind had slightly changed and he forced himself to accept this daughter again, another thorn stabbed him in the heart, causing blood to drip. Forget the father-daughter relationship, he wanted money!
Ding Zhigang was not prepared to give Ding Nianjun this face, and had no words of comfort. He was afraid that he would become abusive as soon as he opened his mouth, so he stood up with a dark face, slammed the door and left.
Ding Nianjun's heart sank and felt extremely cold.
"Mom, is Dad still blaming me?"
Yue Hongmei also felt upset and coaxed him, "Your father doesn't blame you. He blames those nosy red armbands."
Ding Jianshe also said: "Dad is just like that, don't mind it, sister."
Ding Xiang and Ding Jiandang also came over to comfort her, and soon made Ding Nianjun burst into laughter. She wiped the tears from her face and said, "By the way, Mom, has my elder sister found a partner? When I ran into her today, I happened to see her receiving a letter and a parcel slip from the postman. The envelope was for military use only. When did my elder sister get to know someone in the army? Mom, do you know about this?"
