After the mother and daughter finished lunch at home, Bai Shuixian wanted to go to the city to buy some medicinal seeds to plant in the space. Gong Linglong just wanted to mail some things to her mother-in-law, so the mother and daughter packed up their things and went out together.
After getting off the commuter bus, the mother and daughter went their separate ways. Gong Linglong took a cloth bag to the post office and mailed her mother-in-law some of their favorite pickles, two air-dried chickens, a large bag of air-dried fish, and her mother's dried perilla and bayberry and lotus root powder.
After mailing the items and coming out of the post office, Gong Linglong planned to go to the orphanage and give them some vegetables.
"Um?"
She didn't take the main road, but took a shortcut through the residential area behind the post office. As soon as she turned the corner, she saw an acquaintance and immediately backed away and hid in the corner.
There was no one walking on this path at this time. After Gong Linglong carefully confirmed that there was no one there, she immediately activated the artifact to become invisible, and then walked out swaggeringly.
The person walking towards him was Xue Hailin, who was wearing a hat and ordinary clothes, and was accompanied by a mother and son.
The woman next to him was in her early thirties, very pretty, wearing a black skirt, shoulder-length black hair, and a headband on her head. She was talking to him at the moment, her voice gentle and sweet, her eyes looking at him lovingly.
The boy walking beside them looked about five or six years old and was eating a popsicle. Looking closely at his appearance, he actually looked about 50% like Xue Hailin.
Gong Linglong confirmed their relationship at a glance and sneered in her heart: What a warm family of three.
Having accidentally stumbled upon such a big secret, she naturally would not miss this great opportunity. She immediately followed them and eavesdropped on their conversation.
Not far away, they turned a corner and entered a two-story red brick building. Many people lived there. A woman drawing water from the well saw them and said, "Wen Qian, is your husband back from vacation?"
"Yes, he went home on holiday today."
The woman answered. Xue Hailin, who was holding the child beside her, lowered his head slightly and nodded at the woman. His voice was lower than usual: "Sister-in-law is fetching water."
"Well, I heard from Wen Qian that you are engaged in scientific research. You must be very busy with your work. You don't have time to come back once every ten days or half a month." The woman said with a smile.
"Yes, the job is special, and the vacation time is uncertain."
Xue Hailin is actually nearly fifteen years older than Wen Qian, but he takes good care of himself and doesn't have a single white hair. He looks only about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old, so the neighbors have never suspected their relationship.
The few words of greeting between them explained their relationship. Gong Linglong's mouth curled up and her eyes sparkled.
Seeing Wen Qian, who was walking in front of her, was about to go upstairs, she immediately took the lead and went up the stairs, quickly found a position with a good angle, took out the camera in the space, and took a "family photo" for them.
They lived on the second floor. After Wen Qian opened the door and the family of three entered the house, Gong Linglong memorized the house number and left with a smile on her face.
I had important things to do today, so I delivered two bags of vegetables to the orphanage. I didn't stay here for long and hurried to find the Yao brothers.
"Hey, sister, why are you free to come here today?"
The Yao brothers were discussing something at home. When they saw her coming, they immediately stood up to greet her.
"There's a shipment of watermelons coming next week, maybe a whole shipload. I'm here to give you a heads up. They're expected to arrive on Friday or Saturday."
Gong Linglong always dressed up carefully every time she came. It was already a hot summer day, and she also applied some yellow paint to her face and neck, and wore a thin mask on her face. The Yao brothers had never seen her true face until now.
Watermelons are best sold in the summer. The Yao brothers smiled and said, "Sister, no matter how much, we will buy them all."
Gong Linglong nodded. She had come here for another matter today, so she asked them, "Brother Yao, do you know where I can get my photos developed?"
"Sister, I have a brother who has a set of tools for developing photos. If you trust us, I can take you there." Yao Laoer took over.
"I'm helping an older woman develop photos. Her husband has another family outside, and I just found someone to take photos of the evidence. But this older woman has some status, and she doesn't want anyone to know about her family's dirty laundry..."
The Yao brothers understood what she meant. The second brother, Yao, patted his chest and said, "Sister, we are businessmen. We only make money and don't get involved in other things. You can rest assured that we won't leak anything."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Yao, for taking me over to develop the photos."
Yao Laoer brought the customer personally, and his brother started to develop her photos without saying a word. After Gong Linglong got the photos, she paid according to the market price, and then hurried to meet her mother with the photos.
Bai Shuixian had been waiting at the agreed place. Seeing her come over and change her clothes, she hurriedly asked, "Linglong, did you just go to the black market?"
"Mom, I went to ask the Yao brothers for help."
Gong Linglong was extremely excited at this moment and wanted to share her joy as soon as possible. She immediately pulled her to an empty corner and took out a photo from her space to show her.
The angle of this photo was particularly good, and the faces of Xue Hailin and the other three were all clearly captured. Bai Shuixian was sure at a glance: "Xue Hailin has a woman outside, and they have a child?"
"Yes, I just happened to see it on the road."
Gong Linglong had just developed more than ten photos, and her voice was filled with joy. "Mom, I promise these photos will appear in the offices of the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee tomorrow morning."
"Give one to Peng Yuni and the two elders of the Peng family." Bai Shuixian arranged.
Gong Linglong laughed and said, "Of course. Peng Yuni likes to meddle in other people's business, so let her do whatever she wants this time."
"Xue Hailin is very cunning. Even if this mother and son are exposed, he will find a suitable excuse. I don't think we can bring him down this time."
Bai Shuixian has worked in the sanatorium for several months and knows a lot about his affairs. The Xue family has been developing in Seoul for more than ten years and has a solid network of relationships. In addition, Xue Haihui is working in Kyoto, so this incident will most likely not affect his work.
"Mom, no matter what excuse he makes, no matter whether other leaders believe it or not, as long as Peng Yuni believes it, that's all that matters."
Based on her understanding of Peng Yuni, once she confirms the identities and addresses of Wen Qian and her son, she will definitely take immediate action and will be ruthless to them. It will be a lively scene then.
Bai Shuixian's lips curled slightly: "The Peng family is not simple either. The head of the Peng family has a very high status in Kyoto. Even Xue Haihui has to show respect to him. If Peng Yuni and the Peng family insist on dealing with this mother and son, Xue Hailin will probably have no choice but to endure it."
"The more violent the noise they make, the more exciting and fun it will be." Gong Linglong was already getting impatient.
It was already late, so they didn't go anywhere else. Gong Linglong quickly wiped the powder off her face, and the mother and daughter went to catch the commuter bus together.
