"I originally thought you were a good person, but I didn't expect you to be that good. If it weren't for the fact that you work quickly and can usually earn a few work points, do you think our family would value you?"
"That's right, you're still thinking about going to college. What the hell are you dreaming of? We already set a date, but because of you, we lost face in front of our relatives. We're lucky we didn't have to pay you any money. Who are you trying to impress with this? It's a good thing we didn't have a wedding banquet, otherwise there would be unrest in our family."
The man's mother and grandmother were cursing at Zheng Hongying at this time. The man was standing aside with a gloomy face. No matter how Zheng Hongying tried to show weakness to him, he did not give her a good look. After all the betrothal gifts were moved, he turned around and left.
He doesn't look like the young man who was still discussing the wedding date a month ago.
After watching them leave, Zheng Hongying couldn't help crying. At this time, none of the educated youth who had a good relationship with her came forward to comfort her, so she just kept crying there.
This incident caused a big uproar. The aunt who introduced her to the man also looked unhappy when she heard the news. She went back to the man's house with eggs to apologize. She really didn't expect that Zheng Zhiqing was such a person. He usually took her to work very efficiently.
Now, instead of getting married, they became enemies and almost made her lose face in front of her good sisters.
Fortunately, the man's side was not unreasonable. He knew that she was innocent in this matter, so he did not hold any grudge against her.
But that aunt has had a psychological trauma since this incident, and she doesn't dare to introduce anyone to someone when asked to be a matchmaker.
Su Tao only found out about this when she got home from get off work, but she also had a temper. Things had gotten so awkward last time that she wouldn't flatter Zheng Hongying to comfort her.
This incident suddenly became a hot joke in the team, and now Zheng Hongying's reputation is on par with Zhou Xiaoli's.
On the contrary, with the comparison between the two of them, Su Chunjiao seemed a little better. Her mother-in-law was no longer as cold and rude to her as before, but treated her better instead.
A week later, Song Tanglan found out about this matter. He was not very surprised by the final outcome, but he felt it was a pity for the young man. He almost had to hold a wedding banquet, and it would be difficult for him to find a good girl.
Nowadays, not only the man's family chooses the girl, but the woman's family is no exception. Once they find out that you are engaged and almost married, the woman's family will definitely not be optimistic about such a man, and may even ask for a higher betrothal gift.
When Song Tanglan thought of this, he picked up a pen and started writing and drawing on the paper out of boredom.
Starting from the day before yesterday, she was also arranged by Xu Qi to work in the factory. Now she is in charge of the factory's finances and the daily statistics of shipment data.
However, most of these data were given to Lao Quan and Jiang Shubai, so she was quite free for a long time. After finishing her work, she would take out her notebook to write and draw, and occasionally she could draw some beautiful designs.
As the weather grew colder, they successfully wore the down jackets they made.
Xu Qi also specially gave them employee benefits. Although the price was a little higher than that in the military area, it was still within their acceptable range. After all, it was more expensive to buy it outside.
The ready-made clothes sold in department stores do not require cloth coupons, but the high prices are not affordable for ordinary people.
…
As soon as Xu Qi came in, he saw the little girl drawing a clothing pattern. She was just scribbling the pattern, and in the end, she seemed to be distracted. She drew for a long time but couldn't draw the pattern she wanted.
"My wife has eaten. It won't be too late to get busy later."
Song Tanglan raised her head when she heard the voice. When she saw the person coming, she looked at the time on her watch and found that it was already time for lunch.
"Brother Xu, after finishing this batch of orders, will the factory be closed for the holiday?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's just that it's very cold in the factory. It's okay now, but after a while, maybe everyone won't be able to bear it."
Moreover, the situation in the factory was not suitable for making a fire, so she was worried about this just now.
Xu Qi knew that the little girl was afraid of the cold, so it was not surprising that she had such concerns. He took her hand and held it in his hand to give her warmth.
"They'll be busy for two more days before they can have their day off. This batch of goods is going to City A. Is there anything you want to bring back for your family?"
Song Tanglan's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Then we can ship the quilts we're going to take home back with us."
"Yeah, this has been arranged a long time ago." After Xu Qi finished speaking, he saw that the little girl was hesitant to speak. He immediately understood what the little girl was worried about and continued.
"Don't worry, I bought it with my own money. Even if they want to find fault with it, this excuse is invalid."
"That's good!" Song Tanglan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
As their small factory shipped out batch after batch of goods, those people began to have different thoughts when they saw them.
Xu Qi didn't care about this. He didn't make any money from this batch of goods. He made less money from running the factory than from the black market. If his wife hadn't told him that the soldiers in the northwest had a hard life, he wouldn't have wanted to take this job.
The truth is that he didn't have any good feelings towards those people, and his family had come to this point because of those people.
If he didn't have enough background now, he would never let them go unpunished.
Fortunately, this time he successfully gained the attention of his superiors, and now it is much easier to investigate some things than before.
In two days, they finished the last batch of goods and started to take a holiday. The workshop also started to distribute the money.
Song Tanglan now lives a life of staying at home every day again, but even when the factory is on holiday, Xu Qi is still as busy as before. As for what he is busy with, Song Tanglan did not ask.
