Chapter 318 Leaving Home
Chapter 318 Leaving Home
Sheng Fang saw several children in Hua Yan's study and knew what they were discussing. She thought that it was all Hua Yan's credit that her children could participate in it.
Ever since Hua Yan built a vegetable greenhouse for Orchard Village, the villagers' income has increased, and there are fewer people playing with cats and dogs or gambling.
This Spring Festival, there were so many people coming to their house to pay New Year's greetings that there were people all day long. If they hadn't come to Hua Jingxing's house today, the house would probably be full of people.
Tai Ranzhi told the villagers that after the New Year, someone would come to invest in building a large-scale clothing factory in the village, which would need a lot of workers. When the villagers heard this, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Years ago, when Tai Ranzhi gave a New Year gift to the mayor, the mayor said that the town had seen the achievements of Orchard Village and had heard that someone was going to invest in a garment factory and that it might also attract foreign investment.
Tai Ranzhi did not deny it, but he also did not say that it would definitely succeed. This was the promotion performance given to him by Hua Jingxing, and he had to make good use of it.
Hua Jingxing would be disappointed if he failed to get promoted.
The mayor saw Tairan smiling but not answering, knowing that this guy was looking at the town's intentions.
"Ranzhi, everyone has seen your achievements.
Some time ago, we discussed transferring you to the town so that you can have more room to display your abilities and promote the successful experience of Orchard Village in the town.
I estimate that he will arrive in the village after the appointment year, and you should be prepared for the handover.
As for the investment promotion, you need to be attentive after you come here, our town also needs results.”
The mayor finally spoke of Tai Ranzhi's promotion.
Tai Ranzhi's popularity is too high. The various processing points in Orchard Village have made many people jealous. Now a vegetable greenhouse has been built, which makes many village party secretaries unable to sit still.
Now I heard that Guoyuan Village is going to start building a garment factory next year, I can’t even feel jealous anymore, just envy.
Therefore, the leadership team held a meeting and decided to promote Tai Ranzhi to the position of deputy mayor in charge of investment attraction in the town.
When Sheng Fang thought of this, she felt infinite gratitude towards Hua Jingxing and Hua Yan. Without these two, Tai Ranzhi's career wouldn't have been so smooth and his promotion wouldn't have been so fast.
She brought all the vegetables she could get from the greenhouse, driving a tractor and loading a full truck with them. She even gave away her own quilt for fear that the vegetables would freeze.
When Hua Jingxing saw this cart of vegetables, he felt that this was not a winter with no green, but a summer when all things grow.
Hua Jingxing asked Chu Xiu to divide the vegetables and send some to a few close families.
Liu Fengzhi was also eager to try, so Hua Jingxing gave her some and asked her to deliver them to Old Lady Hua.
Su Wenchao was invited by Hua Jingxing to accompany the guests to show his respect for Su Wenchao and Tai Ranzhi.
Tai Ranzhi told Hua Jingxing about the possible promotion after the new year, but it would be better not to say more before the appointment was issued, because they both knew that keeping secrets would lead to success.
Although Sheng Fang was a guest, she acted like the host in the kitchen and was responsible for everything. Wang Yun (Chai Lu's wife) was in charge of cooking, while Chu Xiu and Deng Zhi (Liang Dong's wife) helped her. The hostess Liu Fengzhi was like a guest (a guest in Northeastern dialect), and no one knew what she was doing.
Several women were busy at work, and dishes were brought up steaming hot. Hua Jingxing called several men to their seats.
There were three tables in total, one for men, one for women, and one for children.
Men discussed work, women talked about family matters, and children talked about studying.
Liu Fengzhi was always unable to fit in with the conversation. Sheng Fang, who was always concerned about the overall situation, would find topics to chat with Liu Fengzhi from time to time.
But apart from the medical point, Liu Fengzhi had nothing else to talk about. The key point was that the medical point was now being turned into a prostitution stall by her.
Deng Zhi mentioned that the children would go to Shengjing to study after the New Year. Except for Liu Fengzhi, no one was surprised.
Sheng Fang also noticed that something was wrong with Liu Fengzhi, and asked cautiously:
"Fengzhi, don't you know about this?"
At this moment, Liu Fengzhi really felt that she was abandoned by these four men. Such a big thing, everyone else knew about it, but she didn't know anything about it.
I couldn't help but feel sad. How did she end up like this?
Not only did her mother-in-law, who was eager to please, never treat her well, but she also got scolded for every little thing.
As her husband who she relied on, he refused to lend her a penny when she was in trouble and couldn't pay her wages.
The eldest daughter, who used to be well-behaved and sensible, is now estranged from her.
Her second daughter, who was born to be incompatible with her, has now severed the mother-daughter relationship with her.
The naughty and cute little daughter doesn't feel close to her at all.
She only has a few relatives, and none of them are close to her. Is she destined to have no one to rely on?
Liu Fengzhi remained silent and did not answer Sheng Fang's question.
Hua Yan, who was sitting at the next table, overheard all their conversations.
Hua Yan looked at Liu Fengzhi's distraught look and felt no sympathy at all.
Someone once said that there must be something hateful about a pitiful person, but she didn't feel it so deeply. Now she feels that this statement is so true.
The blisters on my feet are all caused by walking. How can you not pay the price for your mistakes? If you really don't have to pay the price, making mistakes will have no cost, so who would care about right or wrong?
Hua Yan had no sympathy, but was more angry at him for not fighting back.
The men drank happily and were full of hope for the future.
The women were also happy because not only was the family well-off, their husbands’ careers were also growing bigger and bigger, their children’s futures were secured, and they themselves had stable jobs.
Only Liu Fengzhi was like a floating duckweed, not knowing where her future lay. But it seemed that no one cared about this, just like she had never cared about others.
Tairan's family stayed at the Hua family for one night and left after lunch the next day. Because Taiji and Taian were going to Shengjing on the sixth day of the New Year, they had to go home to pack up and hand over the library business.
Su Quan left with several brothers from the Huang family on the fifth day of the New Year because the business would open on the sixth and he had to go back to prepare.
In fact, Hua Jingzhen and the Liu brothers also went back on the fifth day of the New Year. They were all thinking about starting work the next day and not delaying their important work.
On the morning of the sixth day, Hua Jingxing was going to Shengjing with the children. Hua Jiao and Hua Rong came to say goodbye to Liu Fengzhi.
"Mom, we are going to Shengjing City. You should take care of yourself at home."
Hua Jiao said with some concern.
"Nuan'er, don't go with them. Without you, mom will have nothing to eat when she comes home at night."
Liu Fengzhi looked at Hua Jiao eagerly.
Hua Jiao felt very complicated. It wasn't that her mother couldn't bear to let her go, but she was worried that she wouldn't have any dinner in the evening.
"Mom, my elder sister is going to study, please come back early and cook for yourself.
Although the food you cook is not as delicious as my elder sister's, you can't go hungry."
Hua Rong saw that Liu Fengzhi wanted to keep Hua Jiao and was unwilling to do so, so she took action in time.
Liu Fengzhi didn't get an answer from Hua Jiao, and knew that her request could not be met, so she waved her hand impatiently.
Hua Jiao's heart was completely broken, and her original reluctance disappeared. Without saying anything else, she carried Hua Rong on her back and left.
Hua Yan didn't even say goodbye to Liu Fengzhi and had already sat in Hua Jingxing's car.
Finally, she no longer has to go back to this home, because there is no one she misses here. If it weren't for Hua Jiao, Hua Yan might not have come back.
Hua Jingxing was in a low mood. Although he didn't like his wife, he still felt reluctant to let her go.
While drinking that day, he had asked the branch secretary to help take care of Liu Fengzhi and help solve any difficulties she encountered.
【See you tomorrow! 】
