The divorce was set for the eighth day of the lunar new year.
On the seventh day, Granny Fang and several others suddenly showed up at the factory. They wailed and cursed at the factory gate.
The holiday hadn't ended yet, so there was no one working in the factory. Not even a single guard was on duty at the gate.
Hua Qingqing didn't open the gate, nor did she allow others to do so. She just let the Yu family members wail outside.
The factory was located in a remote area, with only a few households within miles.
Granny Fang played the senior card. She first wailed and then cursed at the gate. But since no one paid any attention to her, she felt a bit embarrassed. She was helped to the side to take a rest.
Then Yu Jianshan and Feng Xiang took over.
"Yu Jianhua, come back with us quickly. What on earth are you making a fuss about? You have a good life!"
"Isn't life in the Zeng family good? They have a household register. The mother - in - law is amiable, and the husband has a formal job. You can just stay at home as a young mistress. Isn't this a wonderful life?"
"Come back with us and apologize to the in - laws properly. This matter will be over!"
Yu Linxiu could hardly bear to listen any longer.
She couldn't stop them at home this morning. Every time she said a word, she would be scolded. They even said that Qingqing and her aunt were bad examples, corrupting her...
She was speechless. In the end, she could only follow them.
"Dad, Mom, Grandma, let's go back!"
"The factory's holiday hasn't ended yet. There's no one here!"
But they didn't believe it and insisted on waiting.
The winter sun was blinding. When it was directly overhead, the heat could make people feel dizzy.
Granny Fang was already struggling to hold on.
Feng Xiang's throat was dry after shouting for a long time, and her legs were weak. She turned to Granny Fang and said, "Mom, it seems that little sister - in - law has made up her mind not to come out. How about we go back first? We can come back when they start work. We need to make a big fuss about this. Otherwise, little sister - in - law won't take it seriously, and this divorce will still happen!"
Yu Jianshan echoed his wife.
"Yes, Mom. How many people really get divorced these days? Jianhua is just disgracing our Yu family!"
Yu Linxiu hesitated to speak but finally held back the impulse.
It was better for her not to say anything at this moment, so as not to delay Qingqing and her aunt's big plan.
Her parents, grandparents were already obsessed. She didn't know what Hu Guihua had said that day, but they were determined not to let her aunt get divorced.
The Yu family members shouted at the gate for a long time but returned empty - handed.
Hua Qingqing saw that Yu Jianhua looked calm, and there was even a hint of coldness in her eyes. It seemed that she was really disappointed in the Yu family.
"Tomorrow, we'll go find Zeng He first. We have something on him. He won't refuse to divorce."
The longer they were involved with a tricky man like Zeng He, the more bad luck they would have. It was better to get the divorce first.
After they were separated, other things would be easier to handle.
Early the next morning, Yang Wang, Zhou Cai, and Yu Jianhai came to Dongxing Factory early and waited.
When they were about to go to the county, several female workers in the factory also wanted to go with them.
The group set off.
Among the ten - odd people, except for Hua Qingqing and Yu Jianhai, the others were all wearing the uniforms of Dongxing Factory. Different from the factory uniforms of other factories, which were either blue, green, or gray, the uniforms designed by Hua Qingqing were a light yellow color. There was also the name of the factory director and a logo embroidered on the chest pocket.
The unified - dressed group looked very imposing as they marched forward.
They attracted a lot of attention on the way.
Yang Wang leaned over and said, "After the holiday is over, we'll still need to recruit workers. I'm thinking that we can let the factory workers walk around in their uniforms. Look at those people's eyes. They're almost glued to us."
Hua Qingqing had the same idea.
"You're quite quick - witted."
"Hehe, I have to be quick. After all, I'm making money for myself. If the factory does well, I'll do well too. I'm still waiting to marry A Xiu."
Yang Wang scratched his head. Well, since what happened to the Yu family's little aunt, A Xiu had directly come to him and told him that her parents were not very nice people. If they wanted to be together, they would definitely have to get through her parents' approval. Cough.
If he wanted to marry a wife, he had to work harder.
Hua Qingqing smiled and said, "Don't worry. My uncle and aunt love money. As long as there's money, everything will be okay. But I advise you two not to be too naive. If they take advantage of you once, there will be a second time. Your future life won't be easy."
Yang Wang nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would take the advice. That was exactly what he was thinking. He would use money to solve the problem!
Suddenly, Hua Qingqing thought of something and asked, "The factory is doing well now. We can carry out the planned student - sponsorship program."
We should not only move forward but also move steadily.
Yang Wang said, "I know. We'll have a meeting to discuss this later."
When they arrived at the Zeng family's place.
There were red couplets everywhere in the old alley, looking quite lively.
At this time, there was a group of old ladies sitting in the alley chatting.
Someone saw Yu Jianhua and greeted her, asking where she had been these days.
Yu Jianhua replied with a smile, "I've been busy with work recently."
"What kind of work? You couldn't even come back for the Chinese New Year?"
At this time, Hua Qingqing took the sugar bag and grabbed a handful of sugar for each of the old ladies. She said with a big smile, "Grandmas, aunts, we're in a hurry. We'll talk to you later when we come out."
The sugar was bought by Yu Linxiu at the supply and marketing cooperative before. She bought a lot of it. Some was distributed to the workers for the Chinese New Year, and there was still some left in the factory. Before they set off, Hua Qingqing asked Zhou Cai to carry the sugar, saying that it would come in handy.
Look, it was useful now!
The old ladies and aunts took the sugar, and their smiles became even more amiable. They no longer looked at them with suspicious looks.
"Alright, go ahead first."
"This little girl is so good - looking. She's fair and tender."
Hua Qingqing grabbed another handful of sugar for the old lady who praised her.
When they reached the Zeng family's house.
Yu Jianhua suddenly said, "You wait outside for me. I want to talk to Zeng He by myself."
Hua Qingqing said, "If you need anything, just shout. We'll be right outside."
Yang Wang said, "Yes. If there's any problem, just shout. We'll rush in immediately."
Hua Qingqing rummaged through her bag and took out two photos.
"Take these. If he refuses to divorce, just throw them in his face."
Yu Jianhua took the photos and walked in directly.
Hua Qingqing didn't idle around outside. She looked around and then took Yang Wang to the alley entrance. She chatted with the old ladies there.
When they learned that Hua Qingqing was the top student in No. 1 Middle School, the old ladies were as kind as if they had seen their own grand - daughter.
Someone was curious.
"What's your relationship with Jianhua from the Zeng family?"
Hua Qingqing said, "She's my aunt. My aunt hasn't been in a good mood recently. She finally got a job in the factory. But my uncle insisted that she go back home and didn't let her work. The job in the factory is just sewing. It's very easy. And she can earn 25 yuan a month. It's such a good job. But my uncle didn't want her to do it. He just wanted my aunt to go back and cook for him. When my aunt refused, he beat her and sent her to the hospital..."
"Ah? You ask why my aunt came back today? It's because the wound on my aunt's face hadn't healed yet. She was afraid that coming back would affect my uncle's work. After all, he beats people all the time..."
