Chapter 2 Why haven't the people catching the adulterers arrived yet? This is incredibly ineffi
"Mom, Fan Eryong touched this cup. I bet he put something in it!"
That's how it's written in the original book; the drug was added, which is why they were discovered being intimate in the office. Tong Jiahui was speechless and could only quickly marry Fan Eryong to quell the scandal.
"How can someone be so wicked!" Tong Jiahui's face turned ugly.
After her husband's sacrifice, it wasn't that no one wanted to take advantage of her; it's just that after she refused, they gave up. Only this Fan Eryong, as if he couldn't understand human speech, always kept getting close to her!
Tong Jiahui is 38 years old this year. She went to university and is also beautiful. Therefore, there are still men of similar age who are single or widowed who want to marry her in the factory.
Not to mention her outstanding looks and good job, the 3,000 yuan pension her husband left her after his death is enough to tempt some people.
I also heard that her ancestors were Manchu nobles, and that her great-grandfather and even great-great-grandfather had held high-ranking official positions. Surely she must have some family wealth.
For this reason, even though she was widowed and had seven underage daughters, many men still wanted to marry her.
Tong Yuheng: This is just the beginning; they haven't even had a chance to show their true colors yet!
"Mom, it's not just that Fan Eryong wants to marry you and take advantage of our family. Fan Dayong is the wolf in sheep's clothing; the Fan family wants to wipe out our family line! We all need to be careful from now on!"
"I'll get you some hot water so you can wash the blood off your neck. How serious is the injury? Maybe we should go to the hospital to get it checked out and bandaged!"
"It's nothing, just a bump on the back of my head, a little blood, I'll wipe it off and it'll be fine. I know who did it, I'll put a sack over his head in a few days!"
After they finished cleaning up, Tong Yuheng quickly drew a portrait of the great man with chalk and wrote the words "Serve the People" in large characters, without adding anything too complicated.
On the other bulletin board, Tong Jiahui had basically finished writing. She then added some floral patterns and successfully completed the task!
[Why haven't the people catching the adulterers arrived yet? This is so inefficient!] Just as she was thinking this, she heard footsteps coming from downstairs.
Leading the group was Han Ailian, the wife of Hu, the head of the publicity department. She was also a factory worker, but she worked in the workshop.
This woman was very jealous of Tong Jiahui's beauty and elegance, and always felt that since she worked in the same department as her husband, she would seduce him.
Tong Jiahui's husband, Tong Linsheng, is the head of the security department at the factory. He is a retired military officer, handsome and capable. Even though Tong Jiahui has given birth to seven daughters and has no sons, he still dotes on her, which makes Han Ailian extremely jealous.
Unexpectedly, Tong Linsheng sacrificed himself. She is a widow with seven money-losing children, and she is sure to have a hard time. She must keep an eye on her husband and make sure he is not seduced by this beautiful widow!
Tong Yuheng: Are you out of your mind? Your husband has such a round face and squinty eyes, he's ugly beyond belief. How could my mom possibly like him? Unless she grew her eyes into her belly button!
Han Ailian didn't think that way. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and she felt that her husband was cultured and a section chief, so everyone would want him.
She overheard somewhere that her husband, Lao Hu, and Tong Jiahui were both working overtime, and she couldn't sit still. She even called a few women who were close to her and were also a little jealous of Tong Jiahui to "catch them in the act"!
Whenever she saw Lao Hu and this woman in the same office, she would rush over and slap her, throw dirty water on her, and get the leader to transfer her out of the department!
The group of people came over in a big throng, only to find a mother and daughter who had just finished making the bulletin board and were packing up to go home.
"Tong Jiahui, have you been here the whole time?"
"Oh, it's Sister Han! My daughter and I have been here the whole time. Are you looking for me? Is there something you need?"
Seeing the change in expression on Han Ailian's face, and recalling Fan Eryong's actions earlier, Tong Jiahui realized that this lunatic had been used as a pawn!
The villains even used a series of schemes. On one hand, they injured the daughter to prevent her from showing up; on the other hand, Fan Eryong drugged her, and once they estimated that the drug would take effect, they would instigate people to catch them in the act!
Am I, an old woman approaching forty, really worth all this trouble?
"Oh, I heard my husband Lao Hu came to work overtime, so I called him home to carry coal briquettes! But he didn't come?" Han Ailian didn't make a fuss because she didn't see her husband.
"I don't know, I didn't see him. We were working on the bulletin board here around noon, maybe we didn't notice. Is he in his office?"
Old Hu's office is on the other side of the stairs. If he comes in and goes straight to his room, it's normal that they don't see him.
Han Ailian led several women to Lao Hu's office, but the door was locked, and when they looked through the window, there was no one there!
Undeterred, she went to the men's and women's restrooms again, and finding them empty, she left with a few women. Hearing them come downstairs, Tong Yuheng glared at them fiercely!
These women were known as the factory's gossip queens, always talking nonsense about everyone else.
Instead of staying home in this freezing weather, they're constantly gossiping and talking nonsense about their wives! They can't stand seeing others do well; they just want Tong Jiahui to suffer!
"Sister Han, who told you that Lao Hu and Tong Jiahui are working overtime together? That person isn't just kidding you, is they?" a woman asked.
"That's what Lao Fan's daughter said! She said she's going to visit Tong's eldest daughter. Her mom and her boss are working overtime painting, and she wants to come over later! Isn't their boss my husband Lao Hu?"
"That girl from the Fan family? She's no good either. I've seen several boys in the residential area swarming around her like flies to rotten meat. Don't listen to her!"
"That brat is talking nonsense! She almost made me look bad! Just wait until I get my hands on her!" Han Ailian seemed to realize that she had been tricked.
"I advise you not to mess with her. Her father is now the group leader of the G Committee in the factory. He might cause trouble for people. We can't afford to offend him!" another aunt said hurriedly.
"She's not someone to mess with. You think the eldest son of the Tong family is easy to deal with? Every mischievous kid in the compound who's about the same age has been beaten by her. She's even more formidable than those wild boys!"
My son got beaten black and blue that time, and her dad even came to our door saying he had to apologize! Did my son say anything wrong? Their family is childless and only produced a bunch of money-losing children. And they call themselves the Seven Fairies? Pah!
Tong Yuheng stood on the open balcony corridor, watching the group walk away. Her hearing was excellent; she had overheard everything they said about her family. "Alright, I'll remember it all!"
The mother and daughter went to the small cubicle and pulled Fan Eryong out. At this time, he woke up and begged Tong Yuheng to let him go.
"Fan Eryong, what mischief are you up to today? I'm pretty sure you've got it figured out. You put something in my mom's drink, didn't you? Let me guess what it is!"
