How many bachelors in the factory envied him, Zhao Dong, saying that he was a toad that had eaten a white swan.
He also said that the flower Liu Haiyan was placed on his pile of soft-skinned cow dung was definitely earned by the virtue and talent accumulated by his ancestors for several lifetimes.
So what? After all, Yanzi agreed to be with someone else, right? Those people typically say sour grapes.
Zhao Dong happily introduced the girl to her sister and her brother-in-law.
Liu Haiyan lowered her head, pretending to be shy.
After entering the door, I glanced at the furnishings in the room and was quite disappointed.
I heard Zhao Dong say before that his brother-in-law is a department-level cadre of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Bureau of Z Province. He thought that the conditions at home were very good, but the house he lived in and the furnishings in the house looked just average.
Lu Yun asked Li Youguo to boil water, while she took out the tea leaves to make tea, and asked the two of them casually: "Did you just arrive in the provincial capital? Did you take the afternoon train?"
"No." Zhao Dong said honestly, "The morning train arrived at noon. I went to the department store with Yanzi and went to the park for a while. I wanted to go to a guest house to stay, but I found that I didn't have enough money to buy the train ticket back.
It’s… hiss!”
The instep of his foot was stepped on by Liu Haiyan, and the toe of his leather shoe crushed him, which still hurt.
When Lu Yun heard what he said, the smile on her face couldn't help but fade a bit. She looked at Liu Haiyan with a bit of scrutiny and said, "Dongzi is too honest, don't mind."
"It's okay." Liu Haiyan gave a stiff smile.
I scolded Zhao Dong in my heart: What a heartless person! Why do you want to involve her when you come to visit her as a guest? Isn't this what a boyfriend should do when visiting a department store? I went to the park to rest when I was tired from walking.
The lack of money is not because she spent too much, but because he brought too little.
But she didn't care. Zhao Dong was not her cup of tea anyway.
I just agreed to date him because I couldn't find a more suitable man at this stage. Mainly because he was honest. Although he didn't have much money in his pocket, he was more generous.
As for whether she will get married in the future... Unless Zhao Dong's family buys him a house in Haicheng, she will never consider it.
"It's true, Dongzi. Why didn't you tell your sister in advance when you brought your partner? We didn't buy any food at home. Your brother-in-law went to the fishery to inspect the fishery today and brought some seafood. We ate the only two abalones we had.
No, I'll fry you some seaweed and egg fried rice? And make some seaweed and egg drop soup?"
"Okay, okay, we are not picky eaters." Zhao Dong said.
But Liu Haiyan curled her lips and glanced at the half-eaten big abalone on the table. She felt angry: She enjoyed eating the big fish and meat, but she gave the guests egg fried rice. I wonder about your egg fried rice? Didn't buy vegetables? Didn't buy it.
Where did the abalone come from? It's so big... He must have looked down on me, so he hid the dish.
Huh? This is...
Liu Haiyan glanced at the expired newspaper on the dining table. In the middle of the back page was the photo taken when Xu Suizhu led her students to win the final championship of the speech contest. She pulled it out and looked at it, almost knocking over the bowl on top.
"Swallow?" Zhao Dong was startled by her.
"Stop making noise!" Liu Haiyan felt so angry after reading the news word for word!
Xu Suizhu! Xu Suizhu!
They all went back to their hometown in despair, how could they still be in the limelight?
She was also on the news and was named and praised by the education department. Let’s see what she can do!
Liu Haiyan gritted her teeth.
I wish I could throw the stack of negatives in front of the public right then and there, so that Xu Suizhu's ugliness can be exposed.
Let everyone see how shameless and despicable they are to outstanding talents in education who are willing to return to their hometown fishing villages to make selfless sacrifices after graduating from college, even if they give up their lucrative jobs in big cities!
She also wanted to rush to the small fishing village in the corner, point at Xu Suizhu and scold everyone. She thought that she could sit back and relax by hiding back in her hometown? What a wonderful idea!
It's a pity that I didn't bring any negatives or photos with me, otherwise I would have taken the train directly to Yupo.
"Come on, Yanzi, we don't have much food at home, please be patient! I'll go to the market tomorrow to see what's fresh, why don't you guys rush back? Stay for two more days." Lu Yun held her belly and directed the man to bring the plate to the table.
He greeted his cousin with a smile.
Liu Haiyan twitched the corner of her mouth. How could she be interested in eating at this moment? Not to mention an ordinary plate of egg fried rice, even abalone and sea cucumber were not interesting.
Xu Suizhu was in the limelight, but she got into a fight because she didn't know the director's daughter-in-law beforehand. She was criticized by the director later, so the bonus she got was lost, and she won't get a share in next year's promotion. Comparing the two sides,
How can the breath in my chest be smooth?
After finishing the egg fried rice perfunctorily, he licked his lips, gave Zhao Dong a hand, and told him to catch the overnight train back.
"Are you leaving now?" Lu Yun tried to persuade her to stay to no avail, and looked at her husband in confusion, "Isn't it that I said something wrong?"
"It sounds like there's nothing wrong with me." Li Youguo thought for a while and said, "Maybe there's an emergency at work. However, I don't think this girl is a good match for your cousin."
Lu Yun frowned: "You think so too? Why don't you send a telegram to my aunt tomorrow and ask her to come over and have a look at each other. Dongzi is such an honest person, I'm worried that I've been deceived."
Li Youguo nodded, and as soon as the post office opened the next day, he went to his wife's cousin's hometown to send an urgent telegram.
As for Liu Haiyan, Zhao Dong, who was confused all the way, changed his visa and returned to Haicheng overnight. It was already past midnight when he arrived at the work dormitory. He rummaged through the cabinets and dug out the negatives and photos hidden in the corner. After thinking about it, he stuffed the negatives back.
I put the photos in my bag. I plan to take leave tomorrow and go directly to Yupu. No matter what, I want to expose Xu Suizhu's shameless shame!
After tossing around for the rest of the night, I didn't fall asleep until about four o'clock. As you can imagine, I was late.
However, I was thinking about asking for leave anyway, so I took no more than an hour or two, so I slowly changed into what I thought was the most fashionable woolen skirt, and walked charmingly to the unit to find the director to approve the leave note. Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the unit, I heard from the receptionist that
The person said: "Liu Haiyan, someone is looking for you in the factory director's office. Come over quickly."
"Who is looking for me?" Liu Haiyan wondered.
If you're looking for her, just look for her. Why go to the factory director's office?
There was a pause in my footsteps. Could it be that my parents rushed over from my hometown?
The last letter she sent back said that her brother was planning to get married and needed money for a bride price. He asked her how much salary she had saved and could she send some back.
She finally saved some money, but she couldn't bear to send it back, so she cried about poverty in the letter, saying that the consumption in Haicheng was so high, and the salary of only fifty yuan a month made life difficult.
Her brother wrote a letter the next month saying that after graduating from a key university, he only had a salary of 50 yuan a month. It was better to go back to his hometown. The college students there had a monthly salary of 180 yuan and an extra bonus at the end of the year.
Is this why you came here?
The more I thought about it, the more worried I became, so I stamped my feet and went straight to the factory director's office.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, he suddenly saw the door open. The factory director nodded and bowed and accompanied two comrades in uniforms to come out. When he saw Liu Haiyan, his face sank, "Liu Haiyan, why did you come to work? What time is it?"
The two comrades came to you to verify the situation and have been waiting for you for two hours."
