Chapter 134 The Zheng Family's Secret
Chapter 134 The Zheng Family's Secret
Zheng Haiyang has been suspended!
On his first day of work at the beginning of the new year, his supervisor tactfully persuaded him to go back, saying that because of Zheng Haicheng's incident, he was asked to rest at home for a period of time, and his return date was uncertain.
This news was like a bolt from the blue to the Zheng family, as if it was the end of the world!
The family of four or five people rely on the eldest brother's salary to survive. Now that the eldest brother is suspended from work, what will they eat and drink?
How are they going to live their lives from now on?!
The Zheng family was in chaos again.
Among them, Chang Dafen and Zheng Haiyan caused the most trouble.
Zheng Haiyan was incredulous. "What will we do if Big Brother loses his job?" Zheng Haiyan was no fool. She knew her comfortable life was all thanks to her Big Brother, who worked in the security department of the machinery factory. Even her classmates at school had to treat her with respect. Zheng Haiyan often used this to bully classmates whose parents were ordinary workers.
If her elder brother lost his job, Zheng Haiyan didn't dare to think about how those classmates who had been bullied by her in the past would laugh at her.
Chang Dafen was also extremely panicked. If her eldest son stopped bringing money home, what would their family eat and drink from now on?!
Could it be possible that she was even asked to use the coffin fund she had secretly saved?!
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Although all of this money was taken from her eldest son's salary, she would never spend it even if she died!
Chang Dafen was jumping up and down at home, cursing the leader who made this decision, hoping that his son would have no anus, that he would be struck by lightning, and that there would be no one to take care of him in his old age! Anyway, she used all the vicious words she could think of to curse the leader, even his eighteen generations of ancestors were not spared.
As soon as Zheng Haiyang came back, he lowered his head and no one could see his expression.
But now he advised sullenly, "Mom, please stop scolding me. The boss only suspended me because of my father's sacrifice for the factory. Otherwise, the situation would have been even worse. We should be grateful and not blame the boss. It was also thanks to my father's sacrifice, otherwise I wouldn't know what would have happened to me."
Chang Dafen, as if reminded, suddenly leaped up with a roar, "No, I have to ask the leaders. I want to ask them why they treat the children of martyrs like this?! Are they worthy of the sacrifice your father made for the factory?"
Chang Dafen's skinny figure flew out like an arrow from a bow. Zheng Haiyang shouted several times but failed to call her back.
Seeing the old lady's back gradually disappearing in the courtyard, Zheng Haiyang's eyes flickered. Seeing many people peering into his house, he sighed helplessly, "My mother is just like that. Stubborn and won't listen to advice. I'm going to cause trouble for the factory leaders again. Sigh!"
Everyone laughed dryly: "...Haha!"
It's a bit embarrassing to be caught eavesdropping.
Zheng Haiyang no longer cared about the quarrels between the people in the yard. He went back to the house after saying that.
It would be good to let his mother make a fuss. She had clearly cut off ties with Haicheng Newspaper, so why should she be implicated by him?
Besides, if it had any impact on him, it would have happened as early as when the incident in Haicheng just happened. Why would there be a need to wait until now?
It's obvious that someone wants to trick me!
Zheng Haiyang clenched his fists, unable to figure out how he had offended someone to cause him such harm.
I just hope that his mother's making such a fuss will scare the people behind the scenes and make him go back to work as soon as possible.
After Zheng Haiyang returned home, the neighbors all smiled on the surface, but were secretly engaged in lawsuits.
So, the eldest son of the Zheng family was really suspended from the factory?
Oh, what did the eldest brother of the Zheng family do to get suspended from the factory?
Oh my goodness, Chang Dafen went to the factory to make trouble. Given the temper of this old shrew, she is not only causing trouble, but they have also begun to sympathize with the unfortunate leader.
I don’t know which unlucky guy is being harassed by Chang Dafen?
It’s a pity that they don’t work in the factory, so it’s not easy for them to go over and watch the fun.
……
The aunties in the yard didn't have the chance to go over and watch the fun, but Yu Junsheng, who was working in the factory, got to know the fun firsthand.
It must be said that some things in this world are just coincidences opening the door to coincidence.
Since today is the first day of work in the new year, everyone has not yet returned to work and there is not much work to do.
After Yu Junsheng finished his work, he poured himself a cup of tea and stood by the window chatting with Yao Qinglin.
Of course, it was mainly Yao Qinglin who said that this guy had been set up on blind dates with girls brought by relatives during the Chinese New Year without his knowledge, which was really annoying. When he saw Yu Junsheng, he started to complain.
Yu Junsheng was gloating, thinking that it was a good thing that he had good taste and fell in love with his wife at first sight, otherwise he would probably be going on blind dates with girls like Yao Qinglin and Zou Qingshu.
Suddenly, his eyes moved.
Yu Junsheng: "..." Why did he feel as if he saw the shrew Chang Dafen?
Could it be that I have been watching this old shrew dancing too much in the yard these days and have hallucinations?
No, no, that must be Chang Dafen.
A skinny old lady, with a fierce look on her face, walking with sparks and lightning, looked like she was looking for trouble. There was no one else but her.
Yu Junsheng touched his chin.
What was Chang Dafen doing in the factory? And judging from her direction, she seemed to be looking for the factory leader.
Next to him, Yao Qinglin was still complaining about how he was being tortured by his relatives, but Yu Junsheng's mind had already drifted away.
He blinked and saw Chang Dafen enter an office in the building opposite. Suddenly, he cried out, "I drank too much water. I need to go to the bathroom!"
Before Yao Qinglin could react, Yu Junsheng stuffed the cup into his arms, covered his stomach and ran away.
Yao Qinglin was completely bewildered, but he quickly reacted and started chasing him, "...Hey, hey! Yu Junsheng, wait! I drank too much water too, I need to go to the bathroom too!"
Yao Qinglin didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that as soon as he said this, Yu Junsheng seemed to run faster and disappeared in an instant.
Yao Qinglin: “…”
Finally getting rid of the little tail behind him, Yu Junsheng breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Yao Qinglin would insist on following him to the toilet.
I have important things to do and don't have time to take him out to play.
Yu Junsheng had also heard about Zheng Haiyang's suspension, so it was not surprising that Chang Dafen came to the factory to bother him.
What was strange was that he just noticed that Chang Dafen did not enter the office of the security department leader, but the office of another workshop director who was in charge of workshop production.
There is no one from the Zheng family in the production workshop. Why would Chang Dafen want to cause trouble and look for them?
Yu Junsheng had a hunch that there was something fishy going on and he was eager to get to the bottom of it.
It’s no wonder that a couple will become more and more alike as they live together for a long time. Yu Junsheng is now very interested in the other person’s girlfriend.
Imitating his wife's habit of eavesdropping, Yu Junsheng quickly rushed to the back of the office building opposite.
I remember that Chang Dafen entered an office on the first floor. Yu Junsheng counted the windows behind him, crouched down, and moved quietly to the corresponding window of that office.
It was such a coincidence that the window wasn't closed tightly. Just as Yu Junsheng passed by, an angry male voice rang out from inside, "If you tell lies too many times, you'll start to believe them. Lin Daya, do you still think your old Zheng is a martyr?"
Outside the wall, under the window, Yu Junsheng's eyes almost fell to the ground in shock.
Oh my God!
Is there really a hidden story behind Old Man Zheng's death?!
Then another voice, resembling Chang Dafen's, was heard. However, to Yu Junsheng's surprise, the old shrew didn't throw a tantrum like before. Instead, she snorted coldly, "Hmph, Director Jiang, whether my old man is a martyr or not is up to you. What do an illiterate woman like me know? You leaders always have to take whatever you say!"
Everyone could understand the threat in the words, and the man shouted angrily, "You, you...you bitch, how dare you threaten me?!"
"Hmph, what's a threat? I don't understand! I only know that my son is the son of a martyr. He shouldn't be treated like this by the factory. Just suspend him! And don't tell me that it's because of Haicheng's incident. We have already severed ties with Haicheng. What impact can it have?! Haiyang is the pillar of our family. You must solve this problem for me and let him come back to work! Otherwise, our family of five will be hanged at the factory gate!"
Another threat!
Director Jiang choked for a long time, and finally seemed to compromise, but he didn't finish his words. "As for this matter, I can only give it a try. You know, I'm just a workshop director and I can't control the security department..."
……
After listening to this conversation, Yu Junsheng's eyes rolled around and it was obvious that he was thinking badly.
Yu Junsheng: Hehe, this is God giving him the handle on the Zheng family. If he still doesn’t catch it, he will be letting down God’s kindness to him.
Yu Junsheng considers himself a kind and considerate person, so how could he do such a heartbreaking thing?
Of course not.
So, that afternoon, rumors spread in the factory that there was something wrong with Zheng Haiyang's father's original martyr status.
The extent and speed of its spread are unprecedented.
In the end, even Deputy Director Yang heard about it.
Deputy Director Yang was upright and incorruptible. He hated people who played such tricks the most. He immediately became furious and ordered an investigation to find out what happened to the accident ten years ago.
Regardless of whether someone is slandering the martyrs or it really happened, everyone must be given an explanation for this matter.
……
On this side, Cheng Jiajia had no idea that her husband had done something strange right after work. After finishing her work for the day, she started chatting with the two aunties who came to play and listened to their gossip.
When Aunt Wu mentioned the incident of a child being kidnapped by human traffickers a few years ago, Cheng Jiajia paid close attention and pricked up her ears.
Then Aunt Wu said, "A relative's child on my mother's side of the family was also captured by human traffickers. Luckily, the police arrived in time and rescued him. But the child was unlucky. When he tried to escape, another child he was detained with reported him. The traffickers beat him up and he was severely injured. He spent the whole New Year in the hospital. Oh my, you didn't see it. I heard that the child was beaten terribly."
"Ouch?! God bless you, how can these human traffickers be so evil!"
"Humph, if you ask me, the worst person is the snitch kid!"
"That's right. I heard that the kid was informed because he wanted to save other imprisoned kids."
"Bah, what an ungrateful little bastard! He'll be a bad guy when he grows up!"
Several aunts were filled with righteous indignation and cursed the child who had informed on the matter.
Cheng Jiajia: “…”
To be honest, why did she have a feeling that this ungrateful kid was Zheng Haihua?
Asking is an inexplicable intuition.
Cheng Jiajia thought that if she were the child's parent, she would definitely not let it go like this.
Thinking about the news that Zheng Haiyang was suspended when she returned home at noon, Cheng Jiajia's mouth twitched. Could it really be because of this?
In this regard, Cheng Jiajia could only give them two words: you deserve it!
Several aunts then remembered that a child seemed to have been abducted in Cheng Jiajia's courtyard, so they asked him about the situation.
Cheng Jiajia could only laugh dryly, "It's pretty good, but I was a little scared, haha!"
Cheng Jiajia's eyes looked around, and suddenly, her gaze fixed on something in the corner.
……
The next day, Cheng Jiajia got up a little earlier than usual.
Yu Junsheng went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
After she finished washing up, she took the opportunity to move out an old and quaint little water jar from the house with great effort. She also took out the fresh soil she had dug last night, filled the water jar, sprinkled some seeds in it, and finally watered it.
Aunt Cao was watching curiously and asked in surprise, "Xiao Cheng, what are you growing?"
Cheng Jiajia said with a headache, "Hey, I saw this broken jar in the utility room when I was packing up a few days ago. I wanted to throw it away, but Yu Junsheng wouldn't let me, saying it was passed down from his ancestors. I think he's daydreaming. Everyone knows that his parents fled here, so what good things could their ancestors have? This big thing is taking up space in the house, and he refused to let me throw it away, so I thought I could use it to grow some green onions and garlic sprouts, which would be a way to recycle waste."
Aunt Cao laughed heartily, "This child is even more calculating in his life than my stingy old man!"
Yu Junsheng: “…” His reputation is damaged!
Cheng Jiajia chuckled, "Yeah, I told you he thinks too much!"
The others also laughed. Yu Junsheng was such a cunning guy, he really could dream!
Most people don’t take this seriously and just laugh it off.
Are you kidding me? What antique? The ancestors of this courtyard were all poor, and they didn't have such things! Even if someone had such things, they couldn't live in their courtyard!
Everyone was more interested in the green onions and garlic sprouts grown by Cheng Jiajia.
Some people thought they could plant some themselves, so that they could eat them more conveniently in the future. Others thought that after Cheng Jiajia finished growing some, they could secretly pick some, and she wouldn't know.
However, someone took the conversation between the two to heart.
In the opposite room, Dong Siwei's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw the shabby little jar that Cheng Jiajia moved out.
In her previous life, she had heard many times that some people would deliberately take advantage of the fact that others did not know the ropes and buy antiques at super low prices during special times.
Could this be the Yu family’s treasure?
Look at this quaint shape, look at this exquisite pattern, well, it's quite exquisite, anyway, it looks like an old item.
The more Dong Siwei looked, the brighter her eyes became.
