Wang Lingzhi took a taxi back to the compound where he lived. The taxi registered the number plate before entering the compound and sent him to the downstairs of his house. He asked the driver to wait and went upstairs.
Climbing to the unit building where he lived, Wang Lingzhi opened the door and saw that the guest room was empty. He heard rustling sounds coming from his daughter's bedroom. He hurriedly ran to take a look. He saw his wife rummaging through boxes and cabinets, making a mess, and shouted loudly.
Scold: "What are you doing?"
A sudden shout made Ma Mengting almost jump up in fright. When she turned around and saw Wang Er, she scolded him in a sharper voice: "Are you blind? You didn't see that I was helping Yuxuan find clothes. She was taken away.
Always give her something."
"Stop looking for her. Follow me and go to my mother's place. Let my mother go to Yan Xing to intercede. As long as Yan Xing doesn't pursue it, Yuxuan can come back the same day she goes in." Wang Lingzhi didn't think too much.
, turned around and left.
"...I'm going to wash my face and change my clothes." When she heard that she was going to her daughter's grandparents, Ma Mengting subconsciously wanted to object but said no, but she reacted quickly and agreed.
Wang Er's father has never looked at her in the eyes. They used to live together, and she was criticized for being submissive and submissive. After finally living separately, she became the master. In order not to be angry with her father-in-law for nothing, she would not return home under normal circumstances.
It would be boring to go to her parents-in-law's house. If she didn't go at this time, it would be easier for people to accuse her of being cruel and not even caring about her daughter. Even if she didn't like her father-in-law's house, she still had to go to her father-in-law's house for a formality.
"Why wash your face? It's better to just go like this. When you see my mother, you can cry as much as you want. My mother loves Yuxuan the most. She usually doesn't want Yuxuan to be wronged, let alone let Yuxuan stay in that kind of situation.
place."
Wang Lingzhi glanced at Ma Mengting and thought it was good. Ma Mengting was wearing ordinary home clothes, her long hair was messy, her makeup was stained, and she looked very embarrassed. Only by being miserable can she show her misery, and it can also arouse him more.
Mom’s sympathy.
Ma Mengting understood, she smoothed her hair casually, took only her handbag, no makeup or face wash, followed Wang Lingzhi downstairs with a pair of slippers, and got into the rental car.
The taxi waiting for the guests pulled up, left the compound, and went straight to the designated place. When the retired dignitaries lived in the compound, the taxi could not enter and parked outside the door.
Wang Lingzhi, Ma Mengting and his wife hurriedly entered the compound and almost reached the place where the Wang family lived. They ran for a while until they were out of breath. They knocked on the door and shouted: "Mom, Mom-"
The nanny hurriedly opened the door when she heard the knock on the door. She saw it was the second master and the second wife, especially the second wife's face covered with scars. She was startled and hurriedly let people into the living room.
"Mom, Mom, save Yuxuan -" Ma Mengting howled as she walked.
"Second wife, the old lady is out." The nanny was frightened by the second wife's cry.
"Out...out?" Ma Mengting's howl stopped suddenly, and she was terribly embarrassed.
"Yes, the old lady answered the phone and went out. Second madam, I'll get you water. You wash your face first." The nanny was also a little embarrassed and hurriedly found something to do.
Wang Lingzhi originally wanted to ask the nanny not to fetch water to wash Ma Mengting's face, but felt that doing so was too obvious, so he did not stop him and took Ma Mengting into the place where her parents lived to wait.
The nanny gave the second wife warm water to wash her face, and brought melons, fruits and candies to the second master and his wife.
The things in the old man's house are all high-end goods. Ma Mengting hasn't eaten yet and her stomach is a little empty. She starts to eat without any courtesy, choosing the most expensive things and stuffing them into her mouth, as if she is afraid of losing money.
Wang Lingzhi ate most of his lunch and was not hungry. He was thinking about the dirty money his daughter had transferred for Zhao Zongze and had no intention of eating. He eagerly waited for news about his mother.
There are many courtyards in the capital, and there are not ten but eight courtyards where senior cadres live. Mrs. Wang took a taxi directly to the official courtyard where Mr. Chao lived. When she got to the door, she walked to the door and asked the guard where Mr. Chao lived.
Which room is in the building and how to get there.
Following the guard's instructions, I entered the hospital and asked for directions. It took some effort to find the place where Mr. Chao lived. The small single-family building looked lively, clean and beautiful under the sunlight.
Mrs. Wang walked towards the small building, and when she got closer, she found that the door of the small building was open, and soft music came from the room. It was not a record, but pure music, with a gentle and gentle melody.
She walked to the door and looked inside. The furniture was neatly arranged and spotlessly clean. The light-colored curtains and light-colored furniture made people very comfortable.
There is a mat spread in the relatively spacious area near the window of the living room. Two ladies in white exercise clothes are practicing yoga. Following the rhythm of light music, every movement is very graceful.
Perhaps hearing the sound of high heels approaching, the two ladies who were practicing yoga for the elderly turned to look at the door and were slightly surprised to see an elderly lady wearing a skirt.
"Hello, who are you looking for?" Aunt Ge saw a guest coming, but before she could see her face clearly, she ended her yoga and politely got up to receive the guest.
Mrs. Chao has already recognized who the guest is. From her angle, she can just see most of the face of the guest at the door, but... what is she here for?
Seeing the visitor, Mrs. Chao was not happy at all. She finished an exercise in a leisurely manner, then calmly stretched her hands and feet and prepared to end the exercise.
"I am the mother of the mayor of Beijing, and I am here to visit Mr. Chao and Mrs. Chao." When Mrs. Wang saw the middle-aged and elderly ladies who had finished yoga first, she announced her home address.
"It's Mrs. Wang, please come in," Aunt Ge suddenly realized, looked at the guests, and spoke to the old lady with a smile: "Old lady, Mrs. Wang is here."
"Old Mrs. Chao is at home, and she also practices yoga. Her body is really soft." Mrs. Wang is familiar with her, and she takes the initiative to get close to her as she enters Chao's house.
"Excellent. We little people just practice yoga and move around. Mrs. Wang, like Mrs. Wang, runs around at the banquets of the upper-class dignitaries every day. She can increase her knowledge and exercise. There is no need to do these small exercises.
It's hard for Mrs. Wang, but today there is someone who condescends to visit a small family like ours, Lao Chao." Mrs. Chao stood up unhurriedly and took the bamboo basket on the small bench aside.
The towel in the bag was hanging on his face and hands, and he replied with a smile.
Because she is the wife of a high-ranking official, Mrs. Wang's eyes have always been at the top of her head. Even after Mrs. Wang retired, she still loves face. She always waits for others to come to her home to praise her. Generally, she will not go to other people's houses until she receives a message.
Afraid of lowering her style and status.
She would go to the Eight Treasures Palace for nothing. The old lady of the Wang family had never taken the initiative to interact with the Chao family, but she suddenly "visited" today. In all likelihood, she had some kind of intention, and it must be self-interested.
She didn't like the old lady of the Wang family, especially when she brought the granddaughter of the Wang family and her surname was Zhao at the old man's banquet last year. Old lady Chao was also a vengeful person. She was not prepared to give more face, and she was sarcastic and sarcastic.
.
Old Mrs. Wang's face heated up after being choked by her master, but she wanted to ask for something. She didn't want to return in vain, let alone follow in the footsteps of the He family again. She pretended that she didn't hear the sarcasm: "Old Mrs. Chao is joking, I don't want to
She is just an old lady with long hair and short knowledge. Please don’t blame me for the things I offended in the past.”
"Some things can be treated as if they didn't happen. There are some principled things that I can't forget." Mrs. Chao didn't want to be kidnapped by morality. She put a towel around her neck and casually walked to the sofa to sit down first. This is the most representative thing.
The host casually greeted the uninvited guest who came to the house without making an appointment or calling to inform: "Mrs. Wang, please take a seat."
The old lady of the Chao family obviously didn't want to see her, and the old lady Wang was ashamed and angry because she was under someone else's roof. She couldn't smear her master's face, so she walked over and sat down.
After getting up, Aunt Ge went to wash her hands, poured tea for the old lady of the Wang family, then brought some pumpkin seeds and dried dates, opened the refrigerator, cut the iced watermelon into four small pieces, and put it on the small coffee table to entertain guests.
With Ge Mei helping to make tea, Mrs. Chao held up the tea and politely greeted the guests to drink tea, taking a few sips.
Mrs. Wang drank her tea patiently, and after holding it in for a while, she politely asked: "Isn't Mr. Chao at home?"
"My old man went to the institute to give lectures to a group of students. What does Mrs. Wang have to do with my old man? My old man is a poor intellectual. He has no power and no money. He is rigid and stubborn and does not know how to adapt. Mrs. Wang specially
If you come to my house to look for my old man, your trip will definitely be in vain."
The words of the old lady of the Chao family were stinging, and the old lady of the Wang family felt very uncomfortable: "Old lady of the Chao family, what happened last year was my family's fault. My Wang family was also deceived by Zhao Zongze. I didn't know what kind of person Zhao Zongze was, let alone what he intended to do.
The little girl from the Chao family is rude. Now my granddaughter has broken up with Zhao Zongze. My eldest son and the uncle of the Chao family are also colleagues. At least we, the older generation, have some old friendship. I also hope that Mrs. Chao will stop worrying about the Wang family’s past.
A little unpleasantness caused by unclear recognition of people."
"I remember that Mrs. Wang didn't have such a tone at my wife's birthday party last year. I'm a small-minded person. I only know who made me feel uncomfortable. I can't dress too generously. Mrs. Wang came to my house.
If you have something to say, you might as well open the window and talk openly about it, ramble on about old things, and with my temper, I might end up serving tea to see guests off because I don’t want to talk about it.”
Old Mrs. Chao laughed meaningfully. The old Mrs. Wang's family was really... extremely shameless. She was very fond of Zhao Zongze in the past, and even took her to various places to brush her face. Later, the little fan dumpling stepped on Zhao Zongze's face in front of him.
, Zhao Zongze lost power, the Wang family immediately crossed the river and demolished the bridge, sacrificing Zhao Zongze just like that. Such a ruthless and unjust family, the Lao Chao family would not dare to be friends.
"You..." The old lady of the Chao family almost said, "I don't agree with you." Old lady Wang couldn't keep her face straight. She raised her buttocks and wanted to get rid of him. She immediately forced herself to calm down and said in embarrassment.
Fake smile: "Old Mrs. Chao is really straightforward. You are a straight-tempered person, and I am also a straight-tempered person. I came...I want to meet the youngest girl of the Chao family. My old man is not feeling well. He went to the hospital yesterday. I am anxious and want to
Please ask the little girl to help my old man see a doctor."
"Oh, Mrs. Wang is looking for my little Lele," Mrs. Chao smiled brightly and said meaningfully, then her smile faded: "My old man, I, and my sons don't care about my little Lele's affairs.
No matter who she treats or performs surgery on, it all depends on her own wishes. As elders, we never help her make the decision. Mrs. Wang came to me to ask my little Lele to see a doctor and she went to the wrong place.
."
Old Mrs. Wang was disgraced by the blunt rejection, but she was unwilling to give up, so she put all her face aside and said, "Can Old Mrs. Chao please call the little girl and say a few words of kindness? Please help me."
My old man is going to see a doctor. One day, the boss and I will bring a lot of gifts and apologize to the little girl for what happened last year."
"I will not help anyone seek medical treatment from my little Lele. I am a grandmother-level elder. I will not do anything to embarrass my grandchildren. Mrs. Wang knows that my little Lele cannot tolerate dirt in her eyes. You
I know very well where my Lele is now. You don’t dare to force others into trouble, but you come to my house and ask me to call Lele to put in a good word for you. Isn’t this an intentional attempt to destroy the relationship between me and my little granddaughter? This kind of thing is only a loss.
Mrs. Wang only figured it out, but others probably can't do it."
Old Mrs. Chao sneered: "Old Mrs. Wang, to be honest, for the sake of Mayor Wang, I reluctantly gave you face and let you into my house. If it weren't for the sake of Mayor Wang being a sensible person,
, just because you caused trouble in my house last year, I wouldn’t even let you in, I would just blow you out with a broom and your shoes.”
"You... you think I want to come. If you didn't have a step-granddaughter who knows medical skills, I wouldn't even urinate in your house." Old Mrs. Wang became angry and stood up, with a flushed face,
He threw the person away angrily.
"It's easy to leave." Mrs. Chao said in a funny way. If Mrs. Wang was really arrogant, she would never have entered the Chao family before. She didn't get what she wanted and pretended to be arrogant. Who could show it to her?
She just took it as a joke and didn't care whether the old lady of the Wang family was so angry that her head was smoking. She immediately took out her mobile phone from the small drawer under the table and called Chao Yi. When the call was connected, she smiled.
He said: "Boss, let me tell you something. Mayor Wang's mother came to see your father and me. We didn't talk about it for more than a few words. Now she left in a rage. Are you talking to Mayor Wang?
Please tell Mayor Wang to send a car to pick up the old lady or inform Mr. Wang to ask a nanny to come and look for her on the road. The weather is a bit hot and Mrs. Wang is so angry. It would be bad if she gets a heatstroke on the way."
Before Mrs. Wang could reach the door, she heard Mrs. Chao calling Uncle Chao to inform her boss. She felt inexplicably panicked. She didn't tell the boss when she came. If she invited Mr. Chao's grandson to see the old man,
, I think the boss and the old man will no longer care about how she invited people. Now that she has not invited anyone, the boss must think that she is embarrassing them and his son again.
Mrs. Chao's words reached her ears, and she felt panicked, as if the sky was falling. She felt like she had nowhere to escape, and she felt like she was walking in the desert and couldn't find the way, and her mind was full of confusion.
She was so panicked that she accidentally kicked the shoe rack at the door. At that moment, Mrs. Wang realized her mistake, lowered her head, and walked out of Chao's house as if running away. She didn't even dare to look back and hurried out of the courtyard.
.
Chao Yi was at work when he received a call from his mother. He was really startled. His parents were what the old man said: "No matter what happens, they go to the Eight Treasures Palace." If there was no urgent matter, their parents would never come during his working hours. If you call him, you usually have to wait until after get off work hours to call him. It must be an urgent matter to call him during work hours.
He was nervous, and he was thinking about it when he answered the phone. When he heard that the old lady from Mayor Wang's family had gone to his house, he looked dumbfounded at that time. Even if Mr. Wang is in a high position, the Wang family and the
The Chao family, who are both officials in the capital, actually have little contact with each other. Their family never holds any banquets, so they don't treat guests. When the Wang family posts, it is he and his third son who go there, so basically it can be said that the old man, the old lady, and Mr. Wang
The old ladies never visited each other, and the only time they met was at other people's banquets.
The older generation of the Wang family and the Chao family have no personal relationship and do not move around each other. Today, Mrs. Wang went to the Chao family to find their mother-in-law. The news was like a bomb, and it blew up Chao Yi and the other elders.
I'm totally confused and can't figure out which part of Mrs. Wang's fault is wrong.
Even though he was confused, he didn't ask Old Mrs. Wang what she was doing at home. His mother didn't say anything, so maybe Old Mrs. Wang wasn't far away. Chao Yi agreed, and after hanging up the phone, he decisively called Wang Shi.
Mayor, let Mayor Wang take care of the Wang family’s affairs.
Mayor Wang felt very depressed because his father was hospitalized and his niece was taken away. After lunch, he took the time to deal with the work. He hoped to finish the official business as soon as possible and have time to go to the court. He was busy receiving a call from Secretary Chao.
He thought it was an emergency meeting within the party, but he heard that his mother went to Chao's house to find Mrs. Chao, and lost her temper because she didn't agree with what she said, slamming the door and leaving.
Other people's mothers worry so much about him, only begging her not to cause trouble for him, but now I realize that even those requests are extravagant wishes.
There was no one to talk about when he had difficulties. Mayor Wang felt sad in his heart. Fortunately, Secretary Chao did not blame him. Instead, he was worried that the old lady would not be safe on the road, so he asked him to call a nanny or contact someone to keep an eye on him secretly. Regarding the Chao family's clear-mindedness, he felt deeply
Save some gratitude, finish the phone call with Secretary Chao, call his parents’ nanny, ask the nanny to contact his old mother, and then ignore it.
After receiving Mayor Wang's instructions, the nanny hurriedly called Mrs. Wang. When the call was connected, she hurriedly explained the situation: "Old lady, where are you always? The second master and the second wife are back and are waiting for you.
..."
Mrs. Wang received a call before she left the compound where the Chao family lived. She thought it was her eldest son's call and was about to hang up. She answered the call when she found out it was a call from home. When the nanny said her younger son came home to look for her, she felt even more depressed and confused.
He responded vaguely and ended the call.
The sun was a little hot. When she walked out of the compound and saw cars coming and going on the road outside, Mrs. Wang felt empty in her heart. She suddenly didn't know where to go. When her old man was in office, she didn't help her natal family much, and her natal family was not close to her.
, and her parents have long since disappeared, and the younger generations of her family have not benefited from her and have not had much contact with her. There is no way back to her family.
Now she realizes that she has nowhere to go except her home with the old man.
The more she thought about it, the sadder Mrs. Wang became. She stood alone for a long time and finally took a taxi home.
