Xue Ling couldn't help teasing: "What? A stinky daughter-in-law doesn't dare to see her parents-in-law? Don't worry! They have seen you countless times!"
"No!" Wang Qing was so embarrassed that she whispered: "It's different..."
Xue Ling knew that she was thin-skinned, so he didn't want to tease her anymore and quickly let her go.
"I'll take you downstairs, and then I'll drive over."
Xue Ling closed the door and accompanied her down the steps step by step.
"By the way, how are Lao Liu and Editor Lin doing? Lao Liu's son also bought a house, just over there in the second phase, and he also bought a pretty big one."
Wang Qing smiled and said: "He has been bragging for several days, saying that you gave him a big discount and picked the one with the best view, but he was so happy. His son is very similar to him, and he is very nice.
He is gentle and honest, and he is a slow learner, but he always studies seriously."
Xue Ling asked: "He arranged for his son to go in, hoping to take over from him, right?"
"Yes." Wang Qing explained: "It is very difficult for Lao Liu to sit in this position and sit very securely all the time. He is highly respected in our newspaper office and is the first generation to open a newspaper office. His son also has a diploma.
It’s enough, it just takes time to practice, and after a few years and ten years, you will definitely be able to catch up.”
After a pause, Wang Qing lowered his voice: "I'm telling you! Deputy Director Zhen is secretly very angry. She has always wanted to sit in the position of director. She feels that since she is the deputy director, it is her turn next. She has struggled for many years.
, it’s also full of bitterness and difficulty.”
Xue Ling was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but ask: "By the way, is she married? Does she have a partner?"
"Not yet." Wang Qing shrank her neck and whispered: "She was defrauded of money and sex a while ago!"
What?!
Xue Ling accidentally ate a big melon and asked curiously: "What's going on? Is she okay? Is she okay?"
Wang Qing couldn't laugh or cry, "She's very good, you don't have to worry about her. She has survived for so many years and has seen so many storms. How could she take such a childish thing so seriously!"
"What?" Xue Ling felt suspicious for a while.
Wang Qing explained: "She said this afterward. If she said that, what else could we say, and how dare we step forward to comfort her. The more we dare to comfort her, she might even think that we pity her."
Xue Ling held her forehead and smiled: "She is still so obsessed with face!"
Wang Qing whispered: "About half a year ago, someone introduced her to a teacher. I heard that he was a rural teacher from Rongcheng Middle School. He came from the provincial capital. The teacher didn't look very good, he was short and fat.
, but after all, he is from a provincial capital, he is an intellectual, and he is also a teacher. The deputy director was immediately moved, and he corresponded with the teacher and went to see a movie together."
"Are you feeling better?" Xue Ling asked.
"Yes." Wang Qing explained: "She told everyone that she was getting engaged. We have been colleagues for many years, and although you know her relationship with everyone, we are colleagues after all, and we sincerely want her to be well, and we sincerely care for her.
We were very happy. We also prepared a share of money, ten yuan per person, and gave it all to Editor Lin, intending to buy an electric fan for her as a gift. Unexpectedly, before the gift was bought, something happened to her. That man
She ran away with her savings, and even her soul could not be found."
Xue Ling asked: "She cheated on her? Did she call the police?"
Wang Qing shook his head and explained: "She said that the man lent her his savings to start a business and would come back to marry her soon. None of us dared to persuade her and let her go. Who knew later that I heard that he only
He worked as a substitute teacher at the middle school for a month, and then resigned. No one could be sure whether he was from the provincial capital or whether he had this name. The deputy director found the introducer and started yelling and swearing.
The introducer was also very innocent, saying that she only knew that he was a middle school teacher, and the other things were the man's own words, and she had no way of proving whether he was or was not."
Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "What happened next? Still didn't call the police?"
Wang Qing shook his head and said: "She waited and waited for several months, but there was no news from the man, not even a letter. She knew it in her heart, but who of us dared to reveal it?
Lao Liu told us not to mention it even a word. If we didn't mention it, she would say anything about the storm in front of us, and we would not dare to say it."
"That's right!" Xue Ling said with a smile: "I don't know if she is really strong or just pregnant."
"If she was really strong, she wouldn't have cried at home for several days." Wang Qing smiled bitterly: "I asked for leave and said she was sick, but in fact she cried at home for several days."
"It's so pitiful." Xue Ling thought of her arrogant and shameless appearance, but shook her head, "I hope her temper can change, otherwise she may be deceived again in the future."
"Alas..." Wang Qing whispered: "She has such a strong temper that even long-term colleagues cannot stand her, let alone others. She used to rely on her education and good position.
, she always looked down on her brother and sister-in-law at home. Later, after her parents passed away, her brother and sister-in-law ignored her. She lived alone in Rongcheng, her relatives ignored her, and she had very few friends. It was really pitiful. "
Xue Ling thought for a while and asked, "Has her temper changed?"
Wang Qing nodded: "To a certain extent. In fact, she is only in her thirties, so there is no need to pretend to be very deep. Lao Liu talked to her and gave her some books.
She goes to read it. She's not as critical as she used to be, and she's not as aggressive anymore."
"That's good." Xue Ling said, "Just think of it as spending money to buy a lesson. After each incident, you will gain wisdom, and it will always be beneficial."
Wang Qing continued: "Editor Lin is still the same. The eldest child in the family got good results in the exam this year and has gone to the provincial capital to study. She and her lover live frugally every day in order to provide a good education for several children.
Fortunately, the relationship between the couple is harmonious and the children are obedient, so she said that although life is hard, there is joy in the pain, so it is not so hard."
Xue Ling smiled and asked again: "When will Old Liu retire?"
Wang Qing shook his head and replied: "We don't know yet. It will probably take several years. The longer he works, the higher his retirement salary will be. In addition, his children have to rely on him to support him, so he can't retire now."
Wang Qing also talked about several other colleagues. They all had stable jobs and harmonious families. They were not much different from before.
"Everyone is doing well, that's good. I'll go see them when I have time." Xue Ling waved goodbye to her and went downstairs to the development zone.
When they arrived at the development zone, they found that everyone was full, except for her and Cheng Tianyuan.
Cheng Tianyuan smiled and said: "I just fed Xiao Yangyang milk. He fell asleep, and his mother was holding him inside. Xiao Ranran was taken to play by Chen Min and hasn't come back yet. Come on, let's go eat."
"Where's Cuiliu? Where is she?" Xue Ling asked.
Cheng Tianyuan lowered his voice: "She suddenly wanted to eat mutton today, but after roasting it, she only took two bites. She just said she suddenly felt sleepy and went upstairs to sleep."
Ahu Ma and Liu Ying were washing the dishes and chatting animatedly.
