Liu Hongmei and Chen Fenxia are getting better and better at making clothes, especially Chen Fenxia, who doesn't need Shen Qinghe's guidance at all. She can just take a cut piece of clothing and know how to make it at a glance.
Liu Hongmei is not as dexterous as Chen Fenxia, but she is much better than before.
She was able to get the hang of making similar styles of clothes after making them a few times.
Luo Aixiang developed several subordinates, and each time they handed in a lot of orders to Shen Qinghe, Shen Qinghe did not allow Liu Hongmei and Chen Fenxia to go to the black market, and focused on making clothes at home.
After the autumn harvest, Shen Qinghe began to draw the designs for next spring's clothing. Luo Aixiang had a lot of orders, so Shen Qinghe bought a tricycle and rode it to deliver goods every time she went to the county.
After delivering the goods that day, she went to the factory to hand in the spring clothing design drawings to Deputy Director Tang.
"Xiao Shen, you're here just in time. I was just about to look for you." Tang Zemin was locking the office door. When he saw Shen Qinghe coming over, he laughed and said, "If you had come a minute later, I would have left."
"Doesn't this show that our cooperation is becoming more and more tacit?" Shen Qinghe said with a smile.
Tang Zemin pushed open the office door and invited Shen Qinghe in.
He placed the teacup on the coffee table in front of Shen Qinghe and said with a smile, "Regarding the knitting machine, I have reached a consensus with several factory leaders. The people from the purchasing department will set off tomorrow morning. If all goes well, the machine can be shipped back to the factory in half a month at most."
"Really?" Shen Qinghe's eyes lit up. "That's great. I'll draw more knitted clothes when I get back."
Tang Zemin nodded and said, "Comrade Jiang Chunlin is very good. I arranged for him to rotate positions during this period, and he did a good job in each position.
When the knitting machines arrive in the factory, I will set up a knitting workshop specializing in knitted clothes, and appoint Comrade Jiang Chunlin as the workshop director!"
"Deputy Director Tang, I hope that your appointment is what Jiang Chunlin deserves, and not because of me." Shen Qinghe held the teacup and looked at Tang Zemin seriously.
Tang Zemin laughed, "I know what you mean. Comrade Jiang Chunlin is very hardworking and motivated. He never talks about his relationship with you in the factory. His ability is comparable to yours."
Shen Qinghe smiled, said a few words to Tang Zemin, then got up and left.
On her way back, she went out the back door and bought more than a dozen pieces of cloth from the warehouse.
When I came out of the factory and passed by the supply and marketing cooperative, I met Qi Qingmei and Jiang Xiaohui who were also coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Qi Qingmei and Jiang Xiaohui came to the supply and marketing cooperative today to buy fabrics to make wedding clothes.
Seeing Shen Qinghe, she took two steps towards Jiang Xiaohui and looked at her provocatively.
"Shen Qinghe, you must come when Jiang Xiaohui and I get married."
After all, she married Jiang Xiaohui, not Shen Qinghe.
"We'll talk about it later." Shen Qinghe smiled faintly, "Jiang Chunlin and I are both very busy at work. He will soon be promoted to workshop director by the factory, and I still have to design spring clothes.
Unlike you, you have nothing to do but think about marrying Teacher Jiang every day."
Qi Qingmei's face changed.
Shen Qinghe was implying that there was nothing she could do without her.
Without waiting for Qi Qingmei to speak, Shen Qinghe continued, "Oh, I forgot, your legs won't be able to walk properly anymore.
Now you are a disabled person, different from normal people.
It is normal to be idle at home. After all, even if you want to go to work, it is not that easy. "
"Shen Qinghe, what do you mean?" Qi Qingmei's defense was broken and she was shaking with anger.
Shen Qinghe blinked and looked at her innocently, "Literally, I am telling the truth. What? Is it not allowed to tell the truth now?"
**********************************
"You..." Qi Qingmei held her breath in her throat. Suddenly, she felt a little relieved. She looked at Shen Qinghe with a smile, "Are you jealous of me?"
Shen Qinghe looked at Qi Qingmei in disbelief, then lowered his gaze to look at her injured leg and said something with a double meaning.
"Your thinking process is unique and clear, so you can do such a thing!"
Qi Qingmei understood that Shen Qinghe was mocking her for writing a book, which ultimately made her a disabled person in the book.
This was not what she wanted. In order to let Jiang Xiaohui marry her smoothly, she didn't know how things had developed to this point.
However, as long as I can marry Jiang Xiaohui.
Everything else doesn’t matter.
So what if Shen Qinghe is the wife of the workshop director now? She is not as respectable as the mayor's wife.
"You are still jealous of me!" Qi Qingmei smiled triumphantly, turned to look at Jiang Xiaohui, but saw that he was staring at Shen Qinghe. She stomped her feet in anger, forgetting that her foot was injured, and stomped on her injured leg. Her face turned pale with pain.
Shen Qinghe looked at Qi Qingmei as if she were an idiot and smiled contemptuously, "You were stupid before, and you are still stupid now." After saying that, she rode away on her tricycle.
"Shen Qinghe, you are just jealous of me." Qi Qingmei shouted at Shen Qinghe's back.
"Stop shouting, everyone has left!" Jiang Xiaohui retracted his gaze and inexplicably felt better.
Qi Qingmei took a deep breath and turned to look at Jiang Xiaohui, "I want to go to the state-owned restaurant to eat braised pork."
"Okay!" Jiang Xiaohui nodded and walked towards the state-owned restaurant.
Qi Qingmei, "..."
Are you so easy to talk to today?
Two minutes later, Qi Qingmei was almost crying from anger.
The dishes that Jiang Xiaohui ordered were all Shen Qinghe's favorites. He didn't even order her favorite braised pork.
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Qi Qingmei clenched her hands tightly on her legs.
Even though they are about to get married, Jiang Xiaohui still cares a lot about that bitch Shen Qinghe.
"Brother Xiaohui, we are getting married soon!"
Qi Qingmei suppressed her anger and reminded Jiang Xiaohui with a pale face.
"So what?" Jiang Xiaohui picked up a piece of pork ribs and chewed it slowly. After finishing a piece of pork ribs, he raised his eyes and glanced at Qi Qingmei indifferently.
"How did our marriage come about? Don't you know it?"
"Don't you want to marry me?" Qi Qingmei's body trembled slightly, and she looked at Jiang Xiaohui nervously.
Compared to Qi Qingmei's fear, Jiang Xiaohui seemed much calmer.
He put down his chopsticks, stared at Qi Qingmei, and said solemnly, "I said that since I'm engaged to you, I will naturally marry you, but you use such despicable means to force me to marry you, which makes me despise you!"
Qi Qingmei shook her body. She didn't believe Jiang Xiaohui's nonsense.
If he wanted to marry her, why didn't he come to propose marriage yet?
At the final moment, she would never allow any accidents to happen.
"Brother Xiaohui, I do this because I love you."
"Don't insult the word 'love'!" Jiang Xiaohui was completely out of mood and took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe his mouth.
Jiang Xiaohui threw the handkerchief on the table and said, "Qi Qingmei, now that things have come to this, you don't have to be afraid that I will run away from the marriage. I won't run away. I will get married."
However, I no longer have the desire to live a good life with her.
She completely destroyed the little bit of pity he had for her!
Qi Qingmei's trembling body suddenly stopped and the fear in her eyes slowly dissipated.
As long as Jiang Xiaohui is willing to marry her, everything else can be planned slowly.
Qi Qingmei smiled happily and picked up a piece of cold-mixed pig's trotter for Jiang Xiaohui, "Brother Xiaohui, this pig's trotter is good and chewy."
Jiang Xiaohui glanced at the chopsticks in Qi Qingmei's hand and said calmly, "I'm done eating, you can eat slowly, I have something else to do and I'll leave first."
As he spoke, Jiang Xiaohui took out fifty cents from his pocket and put it next to Qi Qingmei's hand.
"You can go back by bullock cart later."
After saying that, Jiang Xiaohui got up and left.
Qi Qingmei continued to smile and reached out to grab the fifty cents. Her fingernails left a deep scratch on the table. Because she used too much force, she almost lifted her fingernail off.
But the pain in her hands was not even one ten-thousandth of the pain in her heart.
As long as Jiang Xiaohui will marry her, nothing else matters.
Qi Qingmei closed her eyes, put the fifty cents into her pocket, picked up her chopsticks and continued eating.
While eating the ribs, she recalled that once she passed by a state-owned restaurant and saw Shen Qinghe and Jiang Chunlin sitting inside eating.
There was a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs in front of Shen Qinghe. She couldn't stop eating. Jiang Chunlin looked at her lovingly and pushed the pig's trotter in front of her.
With a snap!
Qi Qingmei broke the chopsticks in her hand, and everyone nearby looked over.
Her expression did not change, she was still smiling, and she took another pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder and continued eating.
When you chew the braised pork in your mouth, it is no longer fat but not greasy and melts in your mouth. Instead, it tastes like chewing wax, like swallowing arsenic.
Qi Qingmei pushed the braised pork in her mouth aside. She never wanted to eat braised pork again.
Glancing at the sweet and sour spare ribs and cold pig's trotters on the table, she moved her throat and shoveled rice into her mouth without eating another bite of the food.
After finishing the rice in the bowl, Qi Qingmei's mood completely calmed down.
…
After returning to Taoyuan Village, Qi Qingmei did not go home immediately, but went to the vicinity of Zhu Yinling's home on crutches.
For five consecutive days, Qi Qingmei came to Zhu Yinling's home after dawn and watched her coming in and out every day, sometimes going to work, and sometimes going to the tree at the entrance of the village to brag and gossip with the villagers.
Qi Qingmei was very calm. She was determined to catch the man who was fooling around with Zhu Yinling. Zhu Yinling was unfaithful to her husband and was having an affair with a strange man. If there was evidence, she would be arrested and sent to labor camp.
The crime of hooliganism is not a minor crime, and if you are not careful, you may end up having to pay the price.
She would only feel at ease if she crushed Zhu Yinling to death.
Finally, just as it got dark and Qi Qingmei was about to go back, she saw Zhu Yinling coming out of the house in a sneaky manner, and she immediately followed her.
Zhu Yinling would look back every few steps, as she always felt someone was following her.
But when she looked back, there was no one on the road. Only the trees on both sides of the road were swaying their branches in the dark, which looked a bit creepy.
Qi Qingmei walked out from behind the tree, glanced at Zhu Yinling who was walking hurriedly in front of her, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
In reality, if she could get away with going with Shen Qinghe to see Jiang Xiaohui, she would do so. If she couldn’t, she would just follow them secretly.
She is so experienced that even two top students didn’t notice her, so how could this stupid woman possibly notice her?
"Why did you come just now?"
In the darkness, a vague man questioned Zhu Yinling bluntly.
"I've been waiting here for almost an hour."
"I'm just waiting until dark. What if someone sees us?" Zhu Yinling said to the man in a flattering manner.
The man grabbed Zhu Yinling and went into the woods.
Qi Qingmei frowned. That person, that voice, why did she feel so familiar?
He should be from the village.
Qi Qingmei was very excited after catching the wild man who was fooling around with Zhu Yinling. She didn't care about anything else. She dragged her lame leg, picked up a crutch because it was too slow, and walked home quickly.
"Dad, come with me quickly." As Qi Qingmei entered the yard, she saw Qi Fusheng sitting under a tree drinking tea, Gao Qiufeng sitting next to him sewing shoe soles, and the kerosene lamp on the table was covered by a lampshade, so the slight breeze could not blow the wick.
Such a scene actually made her very envious.
She and Jiang Xiaohui would do the same in the future. He would write lesson plans while she would sit beside him.
"Where are you going?" Qi Fusheng took a puff of his pipe and asked his daughter in confusion, "Why have you been running out so often in the past few days? Your leg injury hasn't healed yet, so you should rest more."
Qi Fusheng also knew that Qi Qingmei's legs could not be restored to their original state.
There's nothing I can do no matter how angry I am.
Qi Qingmei did it herself.
If she had listened to the doctor and stayed in bed for three months, nothing would have happened.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiaohui doesn't despise her.
"Dad, come with me quickly. It will be too late if you're any later." Qi Qingmei didn't bother to explain. She dragged her lame leg over, grabbed Qi Fusheng's sleeve and walked out.
As they walked, he said to Gao Qiufeng, "Mom, quickly ask the villagers to follow us. The more people the better."
"What on earth are you going to do?" Qi Fusheng grabbed Qi Qingmei's wrist with his backhand, "No matter how urgent the matter is, there is always time to talk."
"I caught Zhu Yinling cheating on me. Dad, you should quickly take people to catch her in the act. It's best to lock her up." Qi Qingmei's eyes were shining with excitement.
Qi Fusheng was stunned, and Gao Qiufeng was also stunned.
They had also heard something about Zhu Yinling cheating on her with a man, but they didn't know which man she cheated on her with.
"Why are you so excited about Zhu Yinling's secret affair?" Qi Fusheng frowned, feeling that Qi Qingmei was a little abnormal.
People who don’t know the truth would think that she wanted to live with Zhu Yinling.
"I am the daughter of the village chief, and I have the obligation to clean up the village." Qi Qingmei said confidently, "Dad, hurry up, if that man doesn't have time, we won't be able to catch him if we go too late."
Qi Qingmei's fierce words were so ferocious that even Qi Fusheng, an experienced man, blushed when he heard them.
The corner of his mouth twitched, "You are a girl, what kind of words do you say?"
Thinking that Qi Qingmei is no longer a virgin, Qi Fusheng frowned.
"Aunt, Zhu Yinling is cheating on her with a man, and my father and I are about to catch her in adultery." Qi Qingmei saw the neighbor aunt coming out of the house and hurriedly said loudly.
"Really?" The neighbor said excitedly, "I was wondering how it is possible that she has been single for so many years. Turns out she has a lover. Where is he? Hurry up, I'll go with you."
Qi Fusheng, "..."
Gao Qiufeng, "..."
Is this still their daughter?
How can you say such a thing?
"It's true, auntie, go and call more people, the more the better. We must catch the adulterer and the adulterer and eradicate this evil trend in our village." Qi Qingmei shouted to her neighbors.
The neighbors nodded repeatedly, which made sense.
"I'll call someone now."
There is still some time before bedtime, and I'm worried about having nothing to do. This show is better than watching an open-air movie.
Qi Fusheng and Gao Qiufeng looked at each other in disbelief.
How did their precious daughter become like this?
"Dad, you are the village chief. All the villagers are there. It would be inappropriate for you not to go." Qi Qingmei couldn't help but urge Qi Fusheng when she saw him standing there motionless.
What else could Qi Fusheng say but to go.
"Everyone, please keep quiet and make sure to catch the person in the act."
Qi Qingmei led the way with her lame leg, and when they were almost there, she whispered to the crowd behind them.
For some reason, everyone felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.
Zhu Yinling also led everyone to capture the fourth son of the Jiang family in this way.
It's just a misunderstanding!
Could today's incident be a misunderstanding? !
