After learning about her family situation, He Ruixue privately introduced her to He Xiaojie, and the two became friends because of their similar personalities.
Employees from various units occasionally organize internal trade fairs.
With He Xiaojie's help, she can take the defective daily necessities from the store to the grain station staff to exchange for food. She no longer has to spend money to buy expensive food, and she can feel more comfortable on her finances.
Zhao Jiajia is a girl who knows how to repay kindness. She is grateful for He Ruixue's care for her and has been repaying her through things in life.
For example, every time I cleaned the dormitory, I never forgot to clean the area around her bed, including under the bed. It was so clean that another person could sleep in it.
As soon as she stepped into the dormitory door, Zhao Jiajia took the initiative to greet her, "Ruixue, have you finished lunch?"
"Well, the food is okay."
He Ruixue nodded, took out the oil paper package from her bag, and took out three chestnut cakes. "This is a snack I made at home. How do you like it?"
The girls were very happy to have snacks and each took a piece.
The round-faced girl was the happiest. Her mouth kept moving, and her eyes narrowed in enjoyment. "It's delicious, tastes like honey. Did you add honey?"
"Yes, what kind of tongue do you have? You can taste this."
The girl with the oval face next to her teased her, "You don't know her yet. She'll take any loss she wants, but she won't give up on her mouth. She throws all her salary on the snack counter at the store."
"My mother said that being able to eat is a blessing. I am a blessed girl."
She puffed out her cheeks and chewed non-stop, finishing it in a few bites. She stared at He Ruixue eagerly, "Comrade He, who made this? Is it for sale? I want to buy more from her."
"Not much. I'll let you know in advance next time I do it."
"All right."
She was a little disappointed, but then she thought of something and ran to the bedside to get some malt candy. "Here, for you. My family made it too. Anyone who sees it gets a share."
Maltose is amber in color and crystal clear.
He Ruixue took a bite and found it melted more easily than gummy candy, with a pure sweet fragrance.
The few of them didn't spend much time together every day, so there was basically no conflict and they all had a good relationship. After chatting and laughing for a while, they would go about their own business.
The other roommates were knitting sweaters and making bracelets, but He Ruixue was the only one reading a book.
She collected old newspapers, cut out the articles that interested her, and rebound them, which allowed her to keep up with news trends without appearing to contain anything too outrageous.
Nowadays, people have something to say about whatever book you read, so she might as well take the time to make a bound volume herself. After all, she can't stop people from reading newspapers, right?
The newspaper she was reading was from July. The news was unremarkable, and the word "revolution" was everywhere in the headlines.
She pays more attention to international news than relatively empty and pretentious articles.
The newspapers criticized the Soviet revisionists, the United States, Japan, Britain and other countries in a harsh tone, as if a teacher was calling out their names.
The words used are all derogatory, and the author's attitude can be reflected from the title, "collusion", "slap oneself in the face", "ugly appearance", "death struggle"... one witty remark after another.
It is interesting to see intellectuals cursing at others, as if they want to pour out all their personal emotions that cannot be vented on domestic pages onto their enemies.
Apart from anything else, it's really fun to watch, at least you can learn how to curse.
After reading the newspaper, she took a nap.
Before going to work, Zhao Jiajia walked with her all the way and secretly told her a piece of news.
"Ruixue, have you offended Luo Guoqing? He's been complaining to the group all day about the secretary being unfair and wasting great opportunities. He also said that after this meeting, our store's performance will definitely be at the bottom."
"It's not that I offended him, it's that he's narrow-minded and deliberately making things difficult for me."
She gets angry just talking about it.
Ever since Luo Guoqing gave her full responsibility for the foreign trade team's affairs, he has been making things difficult for her.
Not only her, but even the entire Group 3 was implicated. Every time they went to the merchandise department to confirm supply demand and sales status, and evaluate the quality of goods from suppliers, Luo Guoqing and his subordinates always made excuses.
He Ruixue didn't want to endure it, so she handed the matter over to Wu Xifang. For the sake of their former lover, he would restrain himself a little, but that was all.
When he met Xia Lingqing's mother-in-law who came to buy something, and privately instructed the salesperson to pick out the unfresh ones for her, He Ruixue finally understood how petty he was.
He Ruixue thought that she hadn't even gone to settle the score with him yet, but this guy bumped into her first.
Since he doesn't care about his threats, it's time to release some information, just in time to divert the recent rumors about Han Fuqing.
He Ruixue whispered about the experiences of Luo Guoqing and Wu Xifang, and the grievances and hatreds between the three of them. Zhao Jiajia's jaw almost dropped to the ground after listening to it.
"Rui Xue, are you serious? Just because they didn't choose him, that's why Luo did all those things?"
"Why would I lie to you? The people from the same village as them and the neighbors living around Wu Xifang all saw it. As for him instigating others to gamble, I'm afraid no one knows better than Wu Xifang's man."
Zhao Jiajia just felt it was outrageous. "He's been ruining her for half her life, and yet he can continue to be with her as if nothing happened. How could someone be so shameless?"
"He got this job thanks to his wife, and he betrayed her just like that."
"That's right. I've heard it several times. He often blocked the promotions of his subordinates and asked them to bribe him in order to get a good evaluation.
He also likes to have the final say. When someone says something bad about him, he won't say anything at the time, but secretly he wants to give all the difficult work to that person. If the person fails to complete the work, he will say that the other person is incompetent without even considering his own character.
