Chapter 745 This melon is a bit big
After bragging for five or six hours and reporting on work for five or six hours, Lei Zhen finally came back leisurely near dusk.
When the women in the alley saw him coming, they quickly used stools to greet him.
"Xiao Zhen, sit down quickly."
"Come on, come on, eat some melon seeds."
"Tea, tea..."
Faced with such enthusiasm, Lei Zhen was deeply moved.
The wives of officials are much more obsessed with gossip than rural women.
To some extent, they have more free time and their obsession with gossip is usually purposeful.
"Why, is there any news?"
Lei Zhen sat down, took the melon seeds and joined a few women, crackling them with a loud noise, acting like a male women's director.
"Old Wei got beaten up by his wife. I heard he was caught having an affair."
"Really? How was the fight?"
"He had a lot of angry marks on his face, and he told everyone he saw that it was a cat scratch."
“…”
Lei Zhen listened with great interest. Apart from the news that Old Wei was having an affair, he also heard a lot of new news.
This is why he likes to sunbathe with these women, and he can always hear something from them.
"Xiao Zhen, there was another quarrel at Boss Wang's house this afternoon. What exactly happened?"
"What else could it be?" Lei Zhen shook his head and said, "Boss Wang has taken a fancy to Old Wang's wife..."
Having said that, he quickly changed his words.
"Why are you staring at me? I mean, Mr. Wang has taken a fancy to Old Wang Xicai, but there's something going on that's hard to explain."
"Well, I should go back to eat."
As soon as Lei Zhen stood up, he was grabbed by several women and pressed down on a chair.
"Xiao Zhen, is there anything we can't talk about? It's boring to hide it from my sister-in-law."
"Don't worry, we're the only ones who know."
"We can swear that we will never let anyone know..."
The eyes of the women were shining brightly, and their intuition told them that this was a big melon.
"What am I hiding? Heaven and earth are my witnesses. I, Lei Zhen, have always been honest with my sisters-in-law. I have never treated you as outsiders."
Lei Zhen stood up again, but was pressed down on the chair again.
"Xiao Zhen, you don't trust us anymore, do you?"
"Hurry up and tell me, Mr. Wang and Old Wang's wife have guessed it... so don't hide it."
"Are you still a good brother? Do you still recognize me as your sister-in-law?"
What can you do in this situation? Lei Zhen has no idea what to do.
He turned his head to look at both sides of the alley, making sure there was no one else around, and then he lowered his voice.
"This is a big deal. You must swear not to tell anyone, or I'll kill you and never tell you!"
"Okay, okay, I, Lin Fang, swear I will never tell anyone, otherwise I will be struck by lightning."
"I, Jiang Chunyan, also swear that no matter what I hear, I will keep it to myself, or else I will be struck by lightning."
“…”
The women swore and promised again and again that they would not tell anyone.
Lei Zhen felt relieved. He picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, then lit a cigarette and took two puffs. He then looked around his eyes before lowering his head.
"The latest news is that Li Meijuan's transfer has been finalized. She's no longer the deputy director, but the deputy director of the hospital."
"Deputy Dean? Directly promoted from prison director to deputy dean? That's a huge leap!"
"Is this true? Xiao Zhen, please don't lie to us."
"No matter how capable Li Meijuan is, she can't be promoted to vice president, right?"
Everyone was talking at once as Lei Zhen waved his hand and stopped, all in surprisingly unison, waiting to hear what was to come.
"Do you know why Boss Wang hasn't promoted him? Because President Wang likes him... you all know that, right?" Lei Zhen lowered his voice again with caution. "Everyone knows that Boss Wang is President Wang's confidant, so why hasn't he been promoted?"
The women were overjoyed and were very satisfied with the melon.
"Li Meijuan's promotion to Vice President means... We don't know the specifics yet, so we'll see later."
"If the letter of acceptance comes down, if President Wang starts to ignore Boss Wang, that means..."
The conversation got stuck here and Lei Zhen didn't say anything further.
He didn't say that Mr. Wang had taken a fancy to Boss Wang's wife. He only said that Boss Wang had never been promoted, and that Li Meijuan was going to be promoted to vice president.
There was only one mention of Mr. Wang, saying that Mr. Wang had taken a fancy to his... what? Anyway, Lei Zhen didn't say anything.
As for Mr. Wang's attitude towards Boss Wang, the outcome will be clear in a few days, and Li Meijuan's position as vice president is a foregone conclusion.
She was not transferred to the People's Hospital, but to a directly affiliated hospital, which was under the management of the General Logistics Department.
Throwing down a huge melon that filled his imagination, Lei Zhen smoked a cigarette and walked leisurely towards the yard.
When I pushed open the gate, I saw Li Meijuan sitting under a tree wiping her tears, and Boss Wang squatting beside her with a grim face smoking.
His eyes fell on the house, which was in a mess.
"What's wrong?" Lei Zhen hurried forward and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, why can't you just talk it out? Why do you have to quarrel? It's fine if you just quarrel, but you even smashed the house..."
"I smashed it!" said Li Meijuan.
"It wasn't... you who smashed it?"
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?! You can't even get by. You can argue, but why smash things?"
Lei Zhen was furious and scolded directly.
"Can you be more tolerant of my brother? Can you be more understanding? Sister-in-law, I respect you, but you did something wrong!"
"Do you know how difficult it is for my brother out there? You think he's often not home and is busy all day long, but have you ever really understood him?"
"You don't understand, you only know how to vent your frustrations, but do you know that my brother has been working as a dog for others? Some say he's even worse than a dog!"
Lei Zhen was furious. He strode over, pulled Boss Wang up, and pointed at his head for Li Meijuan to see.
"You're so young, but your hair is already so gray. Have you ever really cared about my brother?"
"Yes, everyone knows this is the famous Boss Wang, who controls the economic plans of several provinces, but what is the truth?"
"He has to listen to everything others say, and he has to carefully read other people's expressions. He walks on thin ice every day, and he has to think over every word in his mind ten or eight times..."
Boss Wang was moved by the scolding of Li Meijuan.
"Lei Zhen, stop talking..."
Boss Wang shook Lei Zhen's hand tightly. It felt like he had found a close friend, and his eyes turned red.
“Sister-in-law, you don’t understand the complexity inside, but you have to learn to understand, but what did you do?”
"Home is every man's safe haven after a day of exhaustion. Even if it can only shield him from a little bit of the cold wind, he will still be full of energy to face the storm the next day. It's worth it!"
"Look at what you've done... Apologize, apologize to my brother!"
Li Meijuan looked at Lei Zhen at a loss, with endless grievances in her heart and tears streaming down her face.
It was not until he saw Lei Zhen wink at him lightly that he realized it was an act.
"Hubby, I'm sorry, wuwuwu..."
"Meijuan, don't cry, it's okay, it's okay, as long as you can understand..."
After resolving a family dispute that was about to break up, Lei Zhen quietly withdrew, hiding his achievements and fame.
After a while, the couple reconciled.
"You're such a fool! Why didn't you tell me that it was so difficult out there?"
"I don't want to upset you, and I don't want to bring my emotions home."
"As for you, it was Lei Zhen who said so. Otherwise, we would have to be so wary of him. But he ended up saving you."
"Yes, yes, I was wrong."
"You were wrong in the first place. Lei Zhen is such a good person. Stop engaging in class antagonism with others all the time."
Li Meijuan knows best whether Lei Zhen is a good person or not.
"Okay, got it."
…
Han Zhinan blocked Lei Zhen in the alley, crossed his arms and stared at him coldly.
"Master Zhen, you really know how to play!"
"You've been playing with Li Meijuan all over the courtyard, aren't you tired of it?"
Seeing the dashing Brother Nan, Lei Zhen turned and walked into the nearby convenience store.
"Boss, do you have a razor?"
"Take 100!"
Rich, willful, just so generous...
