Chapter 308: A Share of the Pie
After hearing this, Zhou Chengye thought about his sister's face, then pointed at himself and said, "Xiaowu and I look quite similar. Why don't you feel that I am a beauty to behold when you look at me?"
Zhou Chengye began to wonder if his charm in front of his wife had declined.
Gao Qingmei glanced at Zhou Chengye and chuckled, "You and Xiaowu are about 60% similar, and the remaining few points are the essence."
"Brother, you were only three or four points short. It's a pity."
After saying this, Gao Qingmei couldn't help laughing. Looking at her husband's angry look, she felt even happier.
It was the first time I saw helplessness and suspicion on my husband's face.
What are you doubting?
I guess he suspects that his face is no longer attractive.
Gao Qingmei found it interesting just thinking about it.
Zhou Chengye sighed: "I admit that I am not as delicate and pretty as my sister."
"Mother, you have to understand that I am a man. I don't need to be so delicate and good-looking. Otherwise, people will laugh at me and say I don't look like a working man."
Gao Qingmei thought of Huo Lanci's face, which could rival her sister-in-law's, and broke her husband's fantasy: "You think too much. Who said Huo Zhiqing doesn't look like a working person?"
"In the brigade, whenever people mention Huo Zhiqing, young and old will give him a thumbs up. He is a capable person."
Zhou Chengye frowned: "Wife, are you going to go against me today?"
Gao Qingmei shook her head: "No, I just stated a fact. I don't think my second brother will be unable to accept this fact."
Zhou Chengye looked at his smiling wife and could only compromise: "How could that be? I admit that my brother-in-law is better looking than me, otherwise my sister wouldn't like him."
He still remembers the first time the brother and sister went to the commune to make a phone call, the sister bluntly said that she had fallen in love with Huo Lanci first.
What do you like?
It's nothing more than Huo Lanci's face.
To this day, he feels that his sister's original approach was correct. If she met someone who was good-looking, caught her eye, and was capable, why didn't she quickly pull the person into her own bowl? Would she have left the person for someone else?
After Yu Wanqing woke up, she learned from her second brother and sister-in-law that her sister-in-law was really pregnant.
Zhou Chengye said, "Xiaowu, go check your sister-in-law's pulse and see how she and the child are doing."
Yu Wanqing smiled and nodded. She sat next to Gao Qingmei and began to take her pulse.
He also transferred some superpowers into the body of his second sister-in-law, which provided warmth and protection for her and the baby in her belly.
She let go of his hand and said with a smile, "Second sister-in-law and the child are both fine."
Zhou Chengye quickly said, "Your second sister-in-law had no appetite a few days ago, but after you came back today, she was able to eat something."
"She also said that you are good-looking and delicious, and she can make you hungry just by looking at you."
Yu Wanqing couldn't help but laugh when she heard this: "Then Second Sister-in-law will watch for a while longer."
"I'm watching." Gao Qingmei looked at Yu Wanqing with a smile in her eyes: "Look at the child's beautiful aunt more often, maybe she can give birth to a child as beautiful as the child's aunt."
Yu Wanqing smiled faintly: "Then when you return to the Five Star Brigade, Second Sister-in-law can come to my house for dinner."
Zhou Chengye nodded: "That's feasible."
Gao Qingmei thought about it and agreed. She would not wait for food, but would help cook, pick vegetables, clean, and also give living expenses.
This would be a bit troublesome for her sister-in-law, but there was nothing she could do about it. She thought that if her sister-in-law needed her help in the future, she would not refuse and would do her best.
Zhou Chengye was worried about the two women going back, so he took half a day off and took a bus to send the two of them back to the Five Star Brigade.
Yu Wanqing had just returned home and had not had time to rest when Secretary Zhou came to her house and arrested her.
Yu Wanqing looked helplessly at the angry middle-aged man walking in front of her: "Secretary, why are you walking so fast? I can't catch up with you."
Secretary Zhou stopped, turned around and glared at Yu Wanqing: "The people from Guangdong Pharmaceutical Factory No. 2 are waiting for you in the office. How long do you want them to wait?"
"If they don't want to wait, they can choose to leave." Yu Wanqing said calmly: "I have already told them that I just returned to the Five Star Team today, so they should come in two days."
Someone from Guangdong Pharmaceutical Factory No. 2 found me through Factory Director Bai and wanted to buy the prescription.
She had already spoken to the other party on the phone and was told that it would take two days for them to be available, but they came in a hurry. If they were impatient to wait, they could choose to leave.
Secretary Zhou stopped and frowned, asking, "Did you tell them that you just returned today?"
Yu Wanqing nodded and told them that she had already agreed on a time with the people from the Guangdong Pharmaceutical Factory over the phone.
Secretary Zhou cursed, "After they came, they never mentioned that you had already made an appointment with them. They just urged you to get to the office quickly because they had something important to discuss with you."
“They’re going too far.”
Yu Wanqing said slowly: "Secretary, why should you be angry because of such a person? It is totally unnecessary."
Secretary Zhou slowed down his pace and walked forward side by side with Yu Wanqing, complaining as he walked: "It's not that I want to be angry, but when I think of how arrogant they were when they first came, and how bossy they were, I want to chase them away."
Yu Wanqing smiled faintly: "Then hurry up."
"I don't think they want to talk about the prescription, but they want to get something for nothing and trick people into giving them the prescription."
There are several pharmaceutical factories in Guangdong. The one coming now is Pharmaceutical Factory No. 2. They always want to achieve something successful and surpass Factory 1, but they have failed after years of hard work.
Now they heard that Yu Wanqing had the prescription, and saw that the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory was making huge profits from two or three kinds of drugs, so they saw the benefits and wanted to get a piece of the pie.
They needed help from others, but they still thought they were a big factory in the provincial capital and wanted to put on high arrogance in order to control Yu Wanqing and Secretary Zhou.
Secretary Zhou was not aware of their little thoughts, but Yu Wanqing understood their actions.
Secretary Zhou was furious when he heard this. He said, "Since they are not visitors with good intentions, there is no need to give them face later."
After walking a few steps, Secretary Zhou stopped and said, "Okay, you must be tired from riding the bus today. Go back and have a rest. I'll send them back."
After he finished speaking, he muttered: "I should have figured things out before coming to you."
"I am really getting old and confused."
At this moment, Secretary Zhou felt that he was not suitable to be the director of the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory. He was not knowledgeable enough. He was fine in managing the one and a half acres of land of the Five Star Brigade, but it was very difficult for him to manage a pharmaceutical factory that had to deal with foreign affairs.
In the future, you may suffer great losses due to your lack of vision.
Thinking of this, he felt a chill down his spine.
