Qi Mengmeng told the story of Lu Zhi being taken away, with a hint of regret in her voice.
"I went to take care of the house this morning and didn't see that scene."
Gu Guizhi was a little amused, "Did Deputy Director Lu offend you?"
"No, but Qin Nian relied on her brother-in-law being the factory director and didn't work hard in the workshop, which really affected everyone's work. Now that Deputy Director Lu has been arrested, I guess Qin Nian will not be much more honest in the workshop."
Qi Mengmeng didn't say it explicitly, but Gu Guizhi also heard her digression. He was afraid that Qin Nian had offended many people in the workshop. Now that Deputy Director Lu was arrested, Qin Nian's life would not be easy.
But in Gu Guizhi's opinion, Qin Nian is not a good person either and should be punished, but there is no need to tell Qi Mengmeng about this.
In the next few days, Deputy Director Lu was not released, and there was more and more discussion in the factory. In the bakery where Qi Mengmeng was working, many people were also secretly discussing it.
Every time Qin Nian heard this, she would argue with others, but no one paid any attention to her. She was so angry that she smashed a basin of eggs, and the team leader recorded it and reported it.
In the past, out of respect for Deputy Director Lu, the team leader would tolerate Qin Nian as much as possible. But now that Deputy Director Lu has obviously made a mistake, the team leader will no longer give Qin Nian face.
In the past, Qin Nian didn't care about that little salary, which was not even enough for her to buy two sets of clothes. But two days ago, Qin Si suddenly returned to her parents' home and said that the Lu family's house was temporarily sealed off by the factory and they were not allowed to enter.
Qin Si has no job and has a baby at home. Although there is still some money at home, Qin Nian dare not waste it anymore, so she has become visibly much more honest.
Everyone watched Qin Nian bow his head and apologize to the team leader, winking at each other, and they all thought that Deputy Director Lu would not come back, otherwise, Qin Nian would not be so honest.
During lunch, everyone was walking out together. Qin Nian, with red eyes, squeezed past Qi Mengmeng and pushed her to the side.
"This road is so wide, Qin Nian, are you doing this on purpose?" Qi Mengmeng really didn't understand why Qin Nian disliked her.
Qin Nian really didn't mean it. She was just in a hurry to get off work and wanted to go see her sister and nephew.
"I didn't mean it." Qin Nian couldn't say an apology, so he left in a hurry after leaving these words.
Master Li came out and saw this scene. He shook his head at Qi Mengmeng, meaning that she shouldn't bother with Qin Nian.
Qin Nian is definitely not a threat now that she no longer has Lu Zhi as her backer, but it would be quite troublesome if she were to give up.
Qi Mengmeng knew this and didn't say anything.
As long as Qin Nian doesn't find her, she can pretend not to know, but if Qin Nian comes to find trouble, she will definitely not let her off easily.
But in the following few days, Qin Nian became more and more silent. She originally thought that Lu Zhi would only be locked up for a few days and then be released. However, after only a few days, news came that Lu Zhi was going to the Northwest to plant trees for twenty years.
Although the factory did not disclose all the mistakes Lu Zhi had made, the fact that he earned kickbacks from buying machines for the factory was disgusting.
I don't know whether to say that Lu Zhi is unlucky or lucky. It was a time of severe crackdown and he was directly sentenced to twenty years instead of ten years. However, it was also because Qin Si took out most of the family's money that Lu Zhi didn't have to eat peanuts.
When Qin Nian heard the news, she was helping Qin Si take care of the child. She was shocked: "Sister..."
She didn't expect that Qin Nian and Qin Si had such a deep relationship that they were willing to take out all the money in the family to help her brother-in-law.
Qin Si smiled bitterly and didn't tell the truth. She had to take out the money. Lu Zhi asked someone to tell her to raise her son and said that she would take care of everything and asked Qin Si not to worry.
Qin Si knew about many of Lu Zhi's affairs and was involved in them. However, she stopped participating because she became pregnant later. However, she helped Lu Zhi come up with many ideas.
If Lu Zhi insisted on dragging Qin Si into the water, his crime would be lighter, but Qin Si had just given birth to a son not long ago. For the sake of his son, Lu Zhi took all the charges, but he did not want to die, so Qin Si could only take out most of the money he had hidden.
Qin Si didn't want to tell Qin Nian about these things. Besides, she had already found a way out. Her and Lu Zhi's son would need Qin Nian's care in the future.
Thinking of this, her tears fell. Why was her life so miserable? She finally found a good man, but he went to jail. She had to think of other ways.
If she had known that Lu Zhi would get in so easily, she would definitely not have given birth to a son. After giving birth, her market value dropped a lot.
When Qin Nian saw Qin Si crying, he put the child down and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
"Don't cry, sister. I have a job and I can definitely support you and your nephew."
Qin Si raised her tearful eyes and shook her head: "Xiao Nian, I am an adult, how can I let you raise me?"
Qin Nian said quickly, "Sister, you just finished your confinement and you still have to take care of Xiaobao. You can't go out to find a job. Let's save some money in the future. My salary should be enough to support the three of us."
Qin Si still shook her head and said weakly: "Xiao Nian, that will be very hard for you, how can I bear it."
Qin Nian didn't realize that Qin Si had other ideas. She just felt that she had relied on her sister before, and now that her brother-in-law was in trouble, she had to take care of the family.
Qin Si smiled sadly: "Xiao Nian, your salary is so little. If I need you to support me in the future, your life will be very difficult. Sister will think of other ways to make your life not so difficult."
Qin Nian's face was filled with emotion, and she didn't realize that Qin Si was changing the subject, and she didn't mention Xiaobao's future at all.
Soon, the day for Lu Zhi to leave arrived. Qin Nian found a way to send twenty yuan to Lu Zhi. When he came back, Qin Si was packing up.
"Sister, why are you packing? You want to go with my brother-in-law? I don't agree." Qin Nian's face was full of resistance, "My brother-in-law is going to the northwest, where the wind and sand are strong and it's very hard. You definitely can't go."
Qin Si smiled bitterly and spoke softly: "Xiao Nian, haven't you noticed that your life has been much harder during this period? I can't drag you down anymore. Someone wants to marry me, and I agreed, so that your life will be much better in the future."
Qin Nian's face was full of shock: "Sister, who are you going to marry? Are you divorced from your brother-in-law? What about Xiaobao?"
Qin Si had already obtained a divorce certificate before Lu Zhi left, so there was no problem for her to remarry now, but Xiaobao was indeed a problem. No one was willing to raise the son of a corrupt official.
Qin Si looked at Xiao Bao on the bed, his face full of guilt and sadness: "Xiao Nian, I don't want to see you suffer anymore. I, I really have no other choice. Can you help me take care of Xiao Bao for a while?"
