Chapter 167 Inquiry



We can’t have the reunion dinner today after all.

As soon as Qian Duoduo brought Fu Yihan home, people from the Military Region Discipline Inspection Commission came to the door.

At this time, Qian Youqian and Jinqian Youliang were still working in the hot pot restaurant, Third Aunt Fang Shufen was still setting up a stall at the night market, and the rest of the people had already returned.

Two men in military uniforms stood at the door and showed their credentials directly. Their attitude was quite friendly. "Hello, is this Qian Duoduo's house?"

It was Liu Qiaomei who opened the door. Although she already knew it, she still swallowed with trembling hands and said, "Yes, yes."

One of the men, who was in his forties, nodded gently. "We need to ask you a few questions. Would it be convenient for us to find a vacant room?"

"It's convenient, it's convenient. Please come in."

The two men entered the yard. Liu Qiaomei closed the gate and followed them in. "Commander, everyone is in the house. Who do you want to talk to? I'll go get them."

Liu Qiaomei was so frightened that her hands and feet went limp. She was afraid that she was holding Qian Duoduo back, so she tried to stay calm and think about what Qian Duoduo had said.

The older man stopped, turned around and said gently, "Then please call Fu Junmo's wife Qian Duoduo to the living room first."

Qian Duoduo entered the main room, looked at the two of them and nodded, "Hello, Chief."

"Sit down."

Qian Duoduo smiled and nodded and sat opposite the two of them.

"Comrade Qian, we've received a report that you have a large amount of property from unknown sources, so we're here to ask about it. Don't be afraid, just be honest."

"Okay, Commander, if you ask, I swear on behalf of the military family that every word I say is true."

The older man chuckled and said, "No need to be so serious, just chatting."

This person is from the Fu family. Before the facts are confirmed, isn't it just a chat?

Qian Duoduo didn't feel like chatting, but she still breathed a sigh of relief, made a very relaxed posture, pressed her right leg on her left leg, and said with a smile: "That's good. I'm a little girl from the countryside and haven't seen much of the world. Although I married Fu Junmo, I still feel nervous when I see comrades in military uniforms and police uniforms."

"I wonder what brings the two leaders here today?"

"It's nothing serious. We are here on behalf of the military region to express our condolences to the division commander's wife. Are you used to coming to the capital?"

Qian Duoduo said carelessly, "I'm not used to it. You don't know, people here always talk in roundabout ways and like to gossip about others behind their backs, just like those gossipy aunties in our village. It's so annoying."

"The roast duck here is quite delicious, but the soy milk is terrible. It's not as good as the one my grandma made."

"The steamed buns and noodles in the restaurant are so expensive. A steamed bun in our commune costs two cents, but here it costs three cents. A big bowl of noodles there costs eight cents, but here it costs 12 cents! How ruthless!"

“…”

The two people from the Discipline Inspection Committee looked at each other, a little confused.

Seeing Qian Duoduo raving about the bad things about the capital and about to continue, the young man quickly interrupted, "Comrade Qian, I have a question I'd like to ask you."

"Well, I told you, you people from the capital are always so literary. You don't need to ask for advice. You are all Jun Mo's comrades. If you have any questions, I will tell you everything I know."

"Haha, let's not beat around the bush. My last name is Li, so you can just call me Comrade Li. His last name is Chen, so you can just call him Commander Chen."

"Comrade Qian, can we know how you make so much money?"

"Buying a shop, a courtyard house, and even a house in Liuzigou with a mountaintop, that's quite a lot of money. Not to mention, you also bought a large amount of clothing fabrics and other things, right?"

These are questions that Qian Duoduo has pondered over many times, and the answers have been improved again and again.

Qian Duoduo laughed and said happily: "I can make so much money thanks to our country's good policies!"

At this point, her face fell, and she sighed, saying, "You have no idea how poor our family used to be. As far as I can remember, I grew up eating wild vegetable and corn porridge. Only the strong laborers in the family could eat steamed corn bread. The children had to wait until the New Year or other festivals to have steamed corn bread. Eating white flour buns was unthinkable!"

Looking up, she saw the two men frowning and smiled sheepishly. "I'm sorry, leaders. Thinking about the past makes me feel uncomfortable and talkative. Oh, right, you asked me how I made my money, right?"

"When China began its reform and opening-up policy, I had just graduated from junior high school and was entering high school. Every day, I listened to the commune loudspeakers and radio announcing the new era of national reform. At that time, I kept thinking, 'I want to make money, lots of money, so that my younger siblings can go to school, so that my older brothers can get married, and so that my grandparents, parents, and grandparents can have enough to eat, and eat well.'"

"I told my grandmother I wanted to start a business, but she was an old woman from the countryside who stayed in the village every day and didn't know anything. When she heard about business, she thought it was speculation. I told her that the country had reformed and opened up, and that individuals could start businesses, but she refused to agree and even scolded me."

"So, I could only take advantage of the summer and winter vacations to secretly run away to the south. At first, I didn't dare to go to any factory to buy goods. I thought that anyone who dared to go to the factory to buy goods must be a big customer. I was worth dozens of dollars on my body, so how could I dare to go? I wandered around the streets for several days and finally chose a pair of stockings. Oh, the stockings that lesbians wear."

"I was desperate. I spent all my money on a batch of stockings. If I couldn't sell them, I would not only have no money to go home, but also no money for hotel accommodation and food. So, I held my breath and thought to myself that I must sell the stockings."
