Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Chapter 545: 545 opinions

Although I felt like eating, just one piece of sweet potato would do.

She felt her stomach was a bit uncomfortable. She took out a can of mixed congee. After finishing it, she went to rest on the bed.

Home is always the best. That’s why there’s an old saying, ”A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own humble nest.”

She had a wonderful sleep and opened her eyes to another beautiful day.

Jiang Xinyu got up with a smile, washed up, and ate a bowl of beef noodles. It was truly delicious. She thought of making some beef noodle broth herself in the coming days. There’s plenty of dried chili in her space, and that’s the authentic flavor.

After eating, she tidied up the house and then went to work. According to Zhang Bao Hua, it won’t take more than a week for Kong Demin to face his public trial.

During the morning meeting, Qian Jun noticed Jiang Xinyu was in a good mood. She seemed completely at ease. That’s quite nice, but he wondered if she still insisted on resigning?

”Vice Factory Director Jiang, we have a meeting in the city this afternoon.”

”This afternoon? Then it mustn’t be an important meeting, right?”

”It’s to discuss us assisting the county in rural outreach and publicity.”

”Us assisting the county? Can they actually use us?”

”Who knows? Your friends are all going, too.”

Qian Jun knew that Jiang Xinyu had a very good relationship with the secretaries from several of the county’s factories.

”Haha, then I’ll join the meeting too. Mr. Qian, can we borrow the factory car?”

”What’s going on? Where do you want to go?”

”I want to look at the seaside. It’s a bit over a month until the New Year, and I’m thinking of getting something delicious.”

”Vice Factory Director Jiang, you’d better calm down. The people watching you haven’t left yet.”

Jiang Xinyu sighed. Indeed, her danger hadn’t passed yet. She had really offended Wang Jinseng, otherwise, he wouldn’t cling on like this.

”Mr. Qian, when will my resignation application be approved? I’m still thinking of accompanying the kids for the New Year.”

”You can’t go anywhere until your issue here is resolved.”

Jiang Xinyu frowned. No, she needed to find Tao Juncheng today? Or go directly to Wang Jinseng?

After lunch, she received a call from Lv Beiguang. ”Give us a lift?”

”Did you call Mr. Qian?”

”Our director did; we’ll cycle over shortly.”

”How about I come to pick you up?”

”No need. Otherwise, we’ll have to walk to work tomorrow.”

”Alright then, see you later.”

Since Lv Beiguang needed a ride, Song Qingqing didn’t come over as there wasn’t enough space.

Being the only female, Jiang Xinyu drove.

”Mr. Qian, do you know when our distillery will get a car assigned? My application feels like it’s disappeared into the void.” Sun Baosheng sighed.

No one took up this topic. Sun Baosheng quickly changed the subject.

”Vice Factory Director Jiang, you’re really incredible. I never expected you to file a real-name report.”

”Director Sun, what else could I do if I didn’t report with my real name? I didn’t want to suffer.”

”That Kong Demin, he lost everything and even risked his life.”

”That’s his own doing. Those who do evil will eventually bring about their own destruction.”

”Vice Factory Director Jiang, our factory’s joint petition really made waves.”

Jiang Xinyu found it quite amusing. Zhang Bao Hua’s strategy was very successful.

”The power of the masses is truly formidable.”

”Indeed, who would’ve thought Kong Demin would stir up public outrage? But it’s his own fault for being too arrogant usually.

His wife, Sun Hongxia, is a niece of one of my family heads. My cousin is quite capable, but that brat managed to oust him. Luckily, my cousin didn’t hand over his connections to him.”

So they had this kind of connection? Jiang Xinyu really hadn’t expected it.

”Old Sun, didn’t they get divorced?”

”They did. It’s a case of losing both the wife and the army. The house they got married in was in my niece’s name, but since it was found to be bought recently, it was confiscated.

It will be hard for my niece to remarry in the future.”

”Your Sun Family is quite righteous, not kicking someone when they’re down.” Qian Jun also sighed.

However, Jiang Xinyu didn’t quite see it that way. The Sun Family was full of capable people. In public opinion, they were absolute victims, but for the Sun Family to have become a director at Steel Cheng, they were certainly no ordinary people. Jiang Xinyu didn’t believe there wasn’t something wrong.

In this way, the benefits he gained were considerable.

But Kong Demin’s wife would have a hard time. Sigh, as a woman, marrying someone is like being reincarnated. A good marriage means a rebirth, but marrying a nobody could cast a shadow over the rest of one’s life.

They arrived in the city, where Liu Yuwei waved at them, and Jiang Xinyu smiled.

Several familiar faces gathered together at this time.

Jiang Xinyu directly asked Hao Shichao, ”What’s going on with Huang Yi?”

”I asked him. He said he wants to repay you and also seek revenge.” Hao Shichao was quite surprised when he first heard it.

”This isn’t good for him. He’s still young. No matter what, filial piety should come first.”

”I couldn’t persuade him. I told him, but he wouldn’t listen. He told me he didn’t want you to suffer any grievances.”

Jiang Xinyu felt a bit moved, as her kind gesture at that moment unexpectedly resulted in this outcome.

”Xinyu, you don’t know. He had already written a report letter long ago, but because of Kong Demin, and when he learned about you being targeted, he came to find me. But at that time, I was also helpless. Huang Yi especially paid attention to your news and, upon hearing that Kong Mengjie was dismissed for reporting you, he returned and wrote that report letter for half a day in my office.”

”I’m afraid that when Huang Yi returns to the village, his family might blame him, affecting the siblings.” She sighed after speaking.

The two of them whispered to each other, and the others gathered around them, blocking the curious outsiders.

”Alright, don’t worry about it. Huang Yi is grown up now; he knows what he’s doing. Plus, he told me his mom is okay with it.”

Still, Jiang Xinyu didn’t think it was right to compromise Huang Yi’s future reputation, but since things were like this already, there wasn’t much she could change.

The leaders had entered the venue, and they followed in.

This meeting was hosted by the deputy mayor, who was very charismatic. His speech was impassioned, but Jiang Xinyu understood it was about each factory contributing money.

It didn’t concern her since Qian Jun was the leader, and it was up to him to decide. As she let her mind drift, she thought about what to bring over for the kids and wondered if Old Yang had received the cotton-padded clothes for the children.

Not having them by her side constantly worried her.

Actually, Jiang Xinyu knew she might be overdoing it. Children of this era weren’t as fragile as those in later generations; they were often left to their own devices. But Jiang Xinyu couldn’t adapt to it.
