"Aunt Zhuang, is the Widow Qin you're talking about Qin Huairu?”Xu Damao asked despite knowing the answer.
The gossipy expression on Aunt Zhuang's chubby face froze. She asked nervously," Yes, yes, yes. Um…Director, Qin Huairu and you are…"
The aunties who were gossiping earlier were also a little nervous. They subconsciously thought that Qin Huairu and Xu Damao had some special relationship. They secretly regretted bringing up this topic. Would they make things difficult for them later?
"That's not it. I'm just staying in the same courtyard as Qin Huairu. To be honest, I don't have a good impression of her either! I feel that this woman is very calculative. Even I suffered a loss.”
With Xu Damao's statement, everyone's hanging hearts finally relaxed and they heaved a sigh of relief. Then, the fire of gossip burned brightly as they asked at once,"Director Xu, tell me, how did this woman offend you?”
"Ahem, Ma Hua, go to my office and get the melon seeds and peanuts from the second drawer.”
"Oh, okay."
When Ma Hua, who was practicing his basic sword skills without any distractions, heard this, he quickly ran away.
Ma Hua was He Yuzhu's most loyal disciple. In the original novel, Silly Zhu left the workshop. Ma Hua was also hot-blooded. He threw away the kitchen knife and left the workshop for half a year. Xu Damao did not want this snitch to pass on some gossip to He Yuzhu. Otherwise, it would be self-defeating.
"Previously, Qin Huairu's child stole an old hen from me and ate it himself. In the end, Qin Huairu somehow managed to trick Silly Zhu into taking the blame and even paid five yuan to compensate me.”Xu Damao said concisely, leaving behind a large narration that left people guessing.
"There's such a thing?"
"How did Qin Huairu raise this child? A thief steals money when the needle is big.”
"Not only did the child not admit his mistake, but he also asked Silly Zhu to take the blame. Why is this person so black-hearted?”
The canteen aunties were filled with righteous indignation, and their impression of Qin Huiru fell to rock bottom after hearing what she said. If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. If you don't correct your child and admit his mistakes, instead, you let her take the blame. How can you feel guilty?
In addition, Qin Huairu flirted with the men in the workshop and made jokes to earn small profits. She was also criticized by others. However, due to her position as a weak widow, no one dared to take the risk of bullying an orphan and a widow to remove this layer of shame.
Xu Damao sighed and said," Actually, it doesn't matter how black-hearted and selfish Qin Huiru is. I'm just worried about Silly Zhu. This fellow is so stubborn and good to everyone. Now that Qin Huiru has clung onto her, wouldn't she be stuck in her hands for the rest of her life and become a cow for her family? As far as I know, Qin Huairu had secretly broken up several blind dates for Silly Zhu.”
"There was one time when Silly Zhu and the girl were about to reach an agreement. In the end, Qin Huairu entered halfway and started to help Silly Zhu pack his underwear and wash them without a word. Think about it, how insulting is that? A virgin girl is thin-skinned. How can she tolerate a future man having an affair with a widow?”
"What? Qin Huairu is so ruthless?"
"I'd rather tear down ten temples than ruin a marriage! Wicked! In the past, when Qin Huairu came to the canteen and asked Silly Zhu to bring her some steamed buns and noodles, I couldn't stand it. This woman instructed Silly Zhu to do bad things, but in the end, Silly Zhu was sent off to the workshop to be reformed. But she acted as if nothing had happened.”
"Silly Zhu can't even find a wife at the age of 30. Don't tell me it's really Qin Huairu's doing? I've been hearing rumors about them recently.”
Aunt Zhuang was a typical Northeasterner. She said in disdain," You guys might not know this, but when Qin Huairu first took over her male class, Guo Dapezi was coaxed away by her to pay for half a month's worth of meals. In the end, he didn't even get a single benefit.”
This was the first time Xu Damao knew that the past that Qin Huairu had casually mentioned in the original novel actually had such a wonderful development.
Qin Huairu came to the workshop as a widow who had lost her husband and three children. As the workshop supervisor, how could Guo Dapezi not have some thoughts after interacting with her? Qin Huairu kept flirting with him, and very quickly, she coaxed away half a month's worth of food tickets. Guo Dapezi thought that the matter had been settled.
In the end, Qin Huairu was ruthless enough. She took advantage of the fact that Big Punk Guo's wife was visiting her at work and pulled her to bawl loudly, saying that she was thanking her man for taking care of her. If it wasn't for the fact that he had given her half a month's worth of food stamps, she wouldn't be able to live on, and so on. She caused quite a stir.
What a cold knife. Guo Piezi's wife was such a stingy woman. She gave half a month's rations to a widow just like that. Who knew if there was some unclear relationship between them? She was so angry that she cursed in the workshop of the rolling mill. In the end, she even alarmed Manager Yang and persuaded him for a long time.
Ever since then, even if Guo Dapeizi had evil intentions, he did not dare to provoke Qin Huiru anymore.
Xu Damao sighed in amazement. He lamented that Qin Huairu was truly born at the wrong time. If it were in the future, she would definitely be at the level of a grandmaster of the tea art.
"Ladies, although Silly Zhu has left the workshop, he is not an outsider. We still have to help him.”Xu Damao said solemnly," The few elders in our courtyard are preparing to help Silly Zhu arrange some blind dates in the near future. However, I'm afraid that Qin Huairu will ruin it."”
"Therefore, I hope that you ladies can put in more effort and do Silly Zhu's work to keep him away from that woman Qin Huiru. We should also correct the rumors from the factory with a rational attitude. What do you think?”
Aunt Zhuang was the first to respond. Department Director Xu was right! Silly Zhu is one of us, we have to help her!”
"That's right! Qin Huairu was already the mother of three children. With this mother-in-law, how could she have the face to be compatible with Silly Zhu? With Silly Zhu's skills these days, would she be afraid of not being able to find a wife?”
"Don't worry. With us around, Qin Huairu won't be able to think of anything good!”
Meanwhile, Ma Hua came back with a big bag of peanuts.
Xu Damao opened the package and spread out the table full of peanuts and melon seeds. The aunties 'eyes lit up and they couldn't help but swallow.
In the 1960s, peanuts and melon seeds were still considered New Year's goods. Ordinary people could not buy them at all. Only at the end of the year could every household receive half a catty of shelled peanuts and two taels of melon seeds with their resident household registration card.
Xu Damao's stock was at least five catties. How generous.
Xu Damao placed the items that he signed in without any special use in the drawer of his office. Sometimes it was five catties of peanuts, sometimes three catties of melon seeds, and sometimes two taels of Pu 'er tea.
The office was almost full of these accessories, but the effect of using them to buy people's hearts was still very obvious.
"How can we not order melon seeds and peanuts when we're chatting about daily life?”Xu Damao smiled and said," I still have something to do and have to go first. Let's eat, drink, and chat. We can't delay our work. We'll start work at four o'clock. Remember to supervise each other!”
After saying that, Xu Damao brushed his clothes and left.
Aunt Zhuang and the others were overjoyed. They fought with the aunties to grab the peanuts and melon seeds. No one could bear to eat them now. It was enough for the children to be happy for half a day when they brought them home.
"Department Director Xu is really a good leader. He doesn't put on airs.”
"If you ask me, Silly Zhu is the lucky one to have a friend like Director Xu!”
"Don't forget what Director Xu said. We can't let Silly Zhu work for others like this and waste his life.”
Qin Huairu, who was far away in the workshop, suddenly sneezed twice. She wondered why she had a bad feeling about this recently.
