Bai Xiaoyue asked curiously, "Isn't it said that during the busy farming season, you work in the fields, and during the off-season, you work in the factory?"
This is a collectively owned factory; aren't you the ones who call the shots?
Uncle Bai remained silent for a long time.
Bai Xiaoyue thought for a moment and then asked, "Uncle, is it true that they think it's wrong for me to take responsibility? Can I not take responsibility?"
Uncle Bai cleared his throat and said, "Nobody wants to be in charge."
Bai Xiaoyue: "Then you and Captain Ye should still be in charge, and Accountant Wang should be in charge of the money, just like the meat processing plant."
Keep accurate records of all incoming and outgoing goods; all you need to do is check the ledgers and the money.
Besides, I never intended to take charge of this matter. I don't have the ability to do that! At most, I can offer some suggestions.
Uncle Bai: "Then we have to find someone to manage things. If you're not responsible, who will? We don't know either."
Bai Xiaoyue suggested, "Why don't we let my second brother manage it? He's always out and about, so managing a small factory shouldn't be a problem for him."
Uncle Bai waved his hand: "Wenyi is my son, we should avoid suspicion."
Bai Xiaoyue: "Uncle, when recommending someone for a worthy position, one should not avoid relatives. I think my second brother is quite good!"
Uncle Bai: "I still need to think about it."
Bai Xiaoyue was speechless and said helplessly, "Then you can think about it slowly."
Just as Luo Xiaowei and Yan Xiaosong were preparing for their wedding, Yan Yugang's family made headlines again.
Yan Xiaosong was so worried he almost blew his hair out, fearing Luo Xiaowei might change her mind at the last minute.
It turns out that Li Xinru left for a few months and then came back.
When she returned home, she found a woman in her house who was very intimate with Yan Yugang.
Unable to tolerate it any longer, she immediately started making a scene, attracting the attention of the surrounding neighbors.
The courtyard was packed with people who came to see what was going on.
Li Xinru pulled that woman out so everyone could see her.
The woman kept her head down, grabbed the man's hair, and showed her face to everyone.
A gasp rippled through the crowd; it turned out the woman was Ding Cuihua.
She was the human trafficker who wanted to sell Chang Le, who was also Yan Yugang's ex-wife.
The crowd erupted in an uproar; everyone had forgotten about him, so why had he come back?
"Isn't this Ding Cuihua!"
"Why did she come back?"
"Weren't you arrested? How come you're out so quickly?"
"Yan Yugang already has a wife, so how did he get involved with her again?"
When Li Xinru heard that this woman was Yan Yugang's ex-wife, she flew into a rage and raised her hand to hit Ding Cuihua, but Yan Yugang stopped her.
Li Xinru angrily cursed, "Yan Yugang, how dare you protect this slut? She's immoral and dared to seduce you. She should be arrested and criticized."
Yan Yugang said, "She is my wife."
Li Xinru's eyes widened in fury: "She's your wife, who am I?"
Yan Yugang said, "You can't blame me. You wrote the letter yourself saying you weren't coming back. That's why I let Cuihua stay."
The group got into a huge argument, so someone went to invite Uncle Bai and Ye Jianguo over.
Uncle Bai asked, "Yu Gang, what's going on?"
Yan Yugang said to Uncle Bai and Ye Jianguo:
"Xinru left for several months and didn't come back. She only sent me a letter saying that she wasn't coming back."
When Cuihua was released from prison, her family wouldn't let her go back. She came to me begging, so I let her stay.
Ye Jianguo asked, "Li Zhiqing, you've long exceeded your leave period, what are you doing back now?"
Li Xinru said, "I was delayed by something, but I'm back now!"
Then, she pointed at Ding Cuihua and said, "Captain, arrest this woman quickly, she's destroying families."
Yan Yugang stood protectively in front of Ding Cuihua and said:
"No, you can't arrest Cuihua. Li Xinru, you said you wouldn't come back. Now that you're back, I'm not going to live with you anymore."
Li Xinru could hardly believe her ears; this old man was looking down on her.
She yelled, "Yan Yugang, what do you mean?"
Yan Yugang said, "You can't even hold a child properly, I don't want to live with you anymore."
Uncle Bai frowned: "Yan Yugang, this is wrong of you. You dare to keep Ding Cuihua even before the divorce is finalized."
Yan Yugang said aggrievedly, "She only sent me a letter, and I can't argue with her. Where am I supposed to find her to get a divorce? I'm divorcing her now."
After saying that, he ran back into the house, took out the letter, and handed it to Ye Jianguo.
Uncle Bai and Ye Jianguo read the letter without saying a word.
Li Xinru's letter was filled with words about how she was going to live a better life and no longer had to live a life worse than that of pigs and dogs with Yan Yugang. She belittled Yan Yugang to the point of being worthless, and every word she uttered was an insult.
This woman has never done a single day of work or cooked a single meal since she married Yan Yugang, yet she has always despised him and even insulted him after he left.
No man could stand it; no wonder Yan Yugang didn't want to be with her anymore.
Ye Jianguo and Uncle Bai exchanged a glance.
Uncle Bai said, "You two have no feelings for each other, no children, and neither of you wants to live together anymore, so just get a divorce!"
Li Xinru screamed: "I disagree!"
Ye Jianguo said firmly, "You wrote the letter first, what right do you have to disagree? You're an educated youth, move back to the educated youth compound!"
Uncle Bai glared at everyone and told them to disperse and go home, and not to crowd around other people's doorsteps.
The Yan family courtyard suddenly became quiet.
Seeing everyone leave, Aunt Yan quietly pulled her son aside and asked:
"Yu Gang, that Ding Cuihua isn't a good person either. What are you keeping her around for?"
Yan Yugang said, "Mother, she is carrying my child."
Aunt Yan was speechless, unsure of what to say.
She waved her hand, telling her son to leave. She said that her children and grandchildren had their own lives to live, and that she was too old to concern herself with other people's business.
After Yan Xiaosong explained the whole story, Bai Xiaoyue was speechless and asked the heavens, "Why can't we get rid of this plague god? He's back again."
Li Xinru moved back to the educated youth courtyard. Luo Xiaowei felt very uncomfortable, but there was nothing she could do; she still had to sleep on the same kang (heated brick bed).
It was hot, and unlike in winter when she was covered up tightly, Li Xinru bent over, pulling her clothes up to reveal her lower back.
Luo Xiaowei glanced at it by accident and was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth.
Li Xinru had multiple bruises and injuries on her waist.
I wonder what happened to her!
There are only two days left until my wedding. I can just bear with it.
She didn't want to upset everyone, so she tried to avoid Li Xinru every day.
Knowing that Luo Xiaowei was getting married, Li Damin sent her a gift: a sewing plane ticket.
He learned from Bai Xiaoyue that the village wanted to set up a garment factory, so he specially got this ticket, hoping that Luo Xiaowei would be more competitive with her sewing machine.
Luo Xiaowei refused: "Brother Damin, this is too precious, I can't accept it."
Li Damin said, "Xiaowei, I don't have much ability. I only managed to get a ticket. I don't even have money to buy it for you. Don't mind it. Consider it my dowry for you."
Luo Xiaowei couldn't refuse any longer: "Brother Damin, I'll keep it for you and return it to you when you get married."
Li Damin said, "No need, just live your life well. I've inquired about Yan Xiaosong, and he's a practical person."
Luo Xiao smiled and said, "I know, I understand him, I will live a good life, and you should find me a sister-in-law soon."
On the day of Yan Xiaosong and Luo Xiaowei's wedding, Yan Xiaosong, unusually, changed into a brand new outfit and dressed neatly.
