The news about Gao Xuemei's incident was strictly sealed within the army. After she committed suicide by taking poison last night, Commander Zhu personally led people to take her husband Yu Zhen and all her children away for investigation, and also found very important evidence in their home.
The operation was a secret within the army, and no one knew about it except the top leaders. Even the leaders of the logistics department thought that Yu Zhen was arranged to go out for study.
Xu Wei had no idea that she was under close surveillance. She completed the discharge procedures in the morning, cried miserably in front of the leader of the art troupe, then voluntarily resigned from her job, packed her luggage and left the army.
Everyone was a little surprised when she suddenly left the art troupe, but considering that her reputation had been bad recently and there was a record on her file before, it would be difficult for her to have a future in the art troupe. It would be better for her to resign and go home, and let her family help her find a new job.
Gong Linglong was unaware of what was happening in the army as she was very busy at the moment.
Yesterday, the leaders of the unit went out for investigation and visits. Today, they were in the office doing statistics and integration. They were so busy that they only had steamed buns to fill their stomachs at noon.
It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that they finished counting the data, and the rest was for the leaders to verify.
"Linglong."
Gong Linglong had just come out of the big office when she saw her mother sitting on a wooden bench in the corridor. She immediately ran over and asked, "Mom, why are you here?"
"The nursing home organized a dumpling-making party this afternoon. The senior leaders were very kind and considerate. They let me go home early after making the dumplings and even asked me to pack some for you."
Bai Shuixian had been there for half an hour. She just asked colleagues from other departments and learned that they were busy in the office. She sat in the corridor and waited without going over to knock on the door to disturb their work.
"Mom, let's go back together. Please sit here for a while. I still have work to do. It will probably take another half an hour."
"You go ahead and do your thing. I'll sit here and wait for you." Bai Shuixian said with a smile.
"Mom, please sit down first. I'm going to the bathroom."
After lunch, he was busy in the office and didn't even have time to go to the bathroom. After saying this, Gong Linglong ran to the bathroom.
As she left, Director Yang came out of the office. She had just heard what Gong Linglong said and greeted her politely: "Hello, are you Gong Linglong's mother?"
"Hello, I'm Linglong's mother, my name is Bai Shuixian."
"Hello, my last name is Yang, and I'm Gong Linglong's leader."
The two women shook hands, and Bai Shuixian apologized first: "Director Yang, I'm sorry to interrupt your work."
"No need to bother, come sit in the office."
Director Yang invited her in, took Gong Linglong's enamel cup, and made her a cup of tea. He said, "Comrade Gong Linglong has strong personal abilities, works diligently and steadily, and is rigorous and meticulous in her work. Her performance is very good."
"Director Yang, thank you for your praise, and thank you to all the leaders for your patience in teaching her." Bai Shuixian expressed her gratitude politely.
Gong Linglong trotted back and saw her mother chatting with Director Yang. She smiled and took out some food from her backpack and gave two egg cakes to her leader. "Director Yang, eat something first."
"I'll just eat one, give it to your mother." Director Yang only took one.
"There are more."
Gong Linglong stuffed the egg cake into her hands and took one for her mother as well, saying, "We were very busy today. We only had steamed buns for lunch and we're hungry."
"Linglong, I brought you some dumplings. They're still hot. Go get some chopsticks and eat some with Director Yang."
Bai Shuixian quickly took the lunch box out of the cloth bag, placed it on the desk, and said to Director Yang with a smile, "Director Yang, I work at the nursing home. This afternoon, I made dumplings with the senior leaders. I made dumplings with pork and radish fillings and dumplings with chives and eggs. You should try them too."
Looking at the dumpling with a plump and evenly shaped head, Director Yang smiled, "I haven't eaten dumplings in years."
“It tastes good, give it a try.”
Gong Linglong brought over the bowl and chopsticks. Seeing that the dumplings were quite large, she took a small portion and gave it to the leaders and colleagues in the next office, so that they could share and taste them.
"It tastes good." Director Yang started eating first, and when she came over, he called out, "Gong Linglong, eat quickly, it's still hot."
Gong Linglong fed her mother one first and said to her, "Mom, tomorrow is a day off, let's make dumplings at home. Brother Jing also said he wanted to eat dumplings before."
"Okay, tomorrow morning I'll go to the small market to buy some meat and make dumplings for you."
Gong Linglong was really hungry, so she shared the dumplings with Director Yang and ate them. After clearing the dishes, they immediately got back to work.
After finishing today's work, it was time to get off work, and the mother and daughter left work together with Director Yang.
"Why are they here?"
Meng Xiaoying had just come to visit a friend. When she turned the corner, she saw Gong Linglong and her mother coming out of the office building, talking and laughing.
Last time, she acted capriciously while applying fertilizer and manure during spring plowing, violating military discipline. She was reprimanded and suspended for one month for reflection.
She has been living at home during this period and was forced to write ideological self-criticisms at home every day. Yesterday, she went back to the art troupe, submitted part of her ideological report, and also visited Xu Wei on the way. She did not ask about Gong Linglong's affairs.
"Xiaoying, let's go."
Her friend He Yuan came over on a bicycle, saw her standing in the corner, and shouted loudly.
Meng Xiaoying walked towards her and said, "He Yuan, I saw someone I know. He just came out of this office building."
"This is the office building of the Ministry of Civil Affairs."
He Yuan also worked in a government agency, not the civil affairs department, and asked, "Who do you know?"
"Gong Linglong." Meng Xiaoying told her.
