Chapter 286: How Did You Advise Them?
Wu Zhi was scolded until he couldn’t hold his head up. He actually just wanted to disgust Meng Qingshan a bit, but he also had the intention of using Che Wei to cause trouble for Meng Qingshan. Regardless of success or failure, Meng Qingshan would definitely fight with Che Wei.
At that time, he could watch the excitement.
Otherwise, he couldn’t vent the anger in his heart.
Meng Qingshan, what kind of thing was he, actually occupying the deputy director position and not letting go.
His uncle told him that the future of Xiangyang Street Food Factory was immeasurable.
Once instant noodles were produced, even if they couldn’t exchange for foreign exchange, domestic sales would absolutely be in short supply.
If he could go to the food factory as deputy director, it meant there would be many and great opportunities and space for promotion.
But now that factory belonged to the neighborhood committee.
No one was allowed in.
Even finding people didn’t work; the people his uncle found couldn’t speak up.
Wu Zhi angrily pointed at Che Wei and cursed: “You idiot, I was just saying it casually, and you took it seriously. I could say eating dog shit can make you immortal and live to ten thousand years old—why don’t you go eat it.”
Che Wei was scolded into a rage from embarrassment: “Wu Zhi, you have to have a conscience. You didn’t name names—how could I take it seriously? Knowing that Meng Qingshan had been partners with Cuizhi, and you still say that to me—how could I not overthink it?
I think you want to be director of the food factory, but the leaders didn’t let you go, so you’re jealous of Meng Qingshan and using me as a gun!”
Wu Zhi spat: “Looking at you, you good-for-nothing, you can only show off in front of Wang Cuizhi. After you got drunk that time you tormented and bullied her, you told me all about it. I’ve never seen such a disgusting man.
Since you’re disgusted that she had a partner before, then divorce her and find another one. Not divorcing but causing trouble for women every day, idiot, what are you yelling at me for, you good-for-nothing. If you have the skill, go find Meng Qingshan!”
Huang Juan showed no sign of shock.
Sister Qiao was the same.
Having done mass work at the neighborhood committee for so many years, men fighting sometimes involved not just hands but also mouths.
But Section Chief Peng hadn’t seen much of it.
They were all from the heating department, usually very busy at work, and there were times of arguing and fighting. But rarely with content like above.
Section Chief Peng only felt his old face completely lost.
The final result was Section Chief Peng giving Wu Zhi and Che Wei another round of scolding. Then suspending both their jobs.
Considering the matter wasn’t very glorious, there was no public criticism.
But the heating department gave both disciplinary action.
At the same time, Meng Qingshan also issued proof of his whereabouts three years ago.
At that time, he and his wife were still inserting in a small mountain village three thousand li away.
He had only returned to the city with his wife and daughter at the end of May this year.
Meng Qingshan’s wife was an educated youth who inserted in the neighboring city. The second brother was just born not long ago, so she wasn’t in a hurry to find a job and was now at home taking care of the child.
And over these four years, the investigation proved that Meng Qingshan and Wang Cuizhi had not met.
Several unit leaders came forward together, and the Women’s Federation and neighborhood committee jointly handled the divorce procedures for Wang Cuizhi and Che Wei.
When the bright red official seal was stamped, Che Wei remembered Lu Qiaoge’s bold words from the day before and roared with bloodshot eyes: “Lu Qiaoge, didn’t you guarantee me that this time you’d persuade reconciliation? How did you persuade? Huh, how did you persuade—did you succeed?”
Lu Qiaoge blinked her eyes, her voice full of apology: “Sorry, I didn’t succeed, but I guarantee next time I’ll work hard to do it.”
Che Wei was full of resentment, but he didn’t dare to accuse further.
The matter from the day before was resolved clean today.
Every single thing had Lu Qiaoge’s figure in it.
Including calling to contact the village where Meng Qingshan inserted.
The unit leaders warned him not to stir up trouble and end up losing his job.
For some reason, Wu Zhi also advised him to divorce quickly.
Wu Zhi said to him like this: “You have a good job without dragging it down and you have a house, so just find a young woman who hasn’t had a partner. Otherwise, with your petty mind, you won’t get along with anyone.”
Actually, Wu Zhi had received an implicit reminder from the leaders to let Che Wei divorce quietly. If done well, they would consider his performance and revoke the disciplinary action against him.
For this, Wu Zhi had no choice but to reconcile with Che Wei and persuade vigorously.
Plus Che Wei’s parents disliked that their only son had a daughter, so they also urged their son to divorce.
So the divorce procedures were handled very smoothly.
Wang family sighed and took their daughter back. Fortunately, the son had his own house; otherwise, how would they live?
Wang Cuizhi knew life after divorce wouldn’t be easy, but still felt happy, only feeling the sky bluer than before.
After settling down, she specifically went to the neighborhood committee to thank Lu Qiaoge for the life-saving grace.
Lu Qiaoge cared about her future plans.
Mainly the housing issue.
Learning she was temporarily living at her parents’ home, Lu Qiaoge said to her: “You work hard and perform well. Our unit’s overall atmosphere is very good—as long as you work hard, there will be rewards. When you have the ability, you can truly repay your parents…”
Then she added: “Also, don’t be so pessimistic. If you meet a good one, you can try to form a new family.”
Wang Cuizhi nodded and said: “I know.”
Huang Juan on the side expressed satisfaction, then said to Lu Qiaoge: “The survey team’s comrades are all returning to Beidu tomorrow. The authorities’ meaning is that our food factory’s flaky pastries are good, so we can process a batch to use as dry rations on the road.”
This could be done.
Lu Qiaoge called Meng Qingshan and asked him to prepare.
Meng Qingshan on the other end immediately agreed, hesitated a bit, and still said softly: “Qiao Ge, thank you!”
Lu Qiaoge: “You work well—that’s the greatest thanks.”
Meng Qingshan: “That’s a must!”
Both laughed.
—
The freshly baked flaky pastries were packed in kraft paper bags and placed in storage boxes. It was still Shao Le driving, pulling a thousand jin of flaky pastries to the factory department.
Director Hao didn’t look at the flaky pastries but couldn’t put down the corn leaf weaving storage box.
Square, exquisite, and delicate.
Not just for food—actually, it could hold anything.
Lu Qiaoge glanced and knew what Director Hao was thinking, saying: “This is a storage box. It can hold books or documents. Director Hao, you can keep one. Anyway, this is also our gift to the survey team, thanking them for their contribution.”
Director Hao waved his hand: “No, no gift. Leaving two for them is fine; we’ll buy the rest for our factory department.”
As for the flaky pastries, they were supposed to be distributed directly anyway.
Lu Qiaoge looked at the storage box—this was newly woven by Lin Jun’an and the others, using corn leaves.
Of course, the style was provided by her.
Actually, the style was very simple—one look and you’d know how to weave it.
Of course, this also tested skill.
Lu Qiaoge felt she should contact Zhen Xi.
End-of-month delivery next month, deposit also arrived, but no news from Zhen Xi during this time.
To call Zhen Xi, she still had to go to the foreign trade section to find Director Zhou.
He had a separately set up dedicated line there.
Before Lu Qiaoge could act, Qin Hengzhi called Lu Qiaoge and asked her to wait for him after work at noon—he had something to tell her.
Lu Qiaoge thought it was about Hongxing Lake, but unexpectedly it was that Sun Ziliang mentioned by the old turtle who had come.
He was transferred over, temporarily in the staff hospital’s mail room.
The two decided to go to the staff hospital to take a look.
