Chapter 162 Comrade Xiao Zhang, a man should have a mouth; if you don't understand, ask.
Chen Xiaoxia smiled slightly: "I've eaten, thank you for your concern, Xiao Qiao. It's just..."
She placed her hands on her lower abdomen, her eyes filled with sorrow: "I've let you down!"
Qiao Manman nodded: "Getting healthy is more important than anything else."
Feng Yu grasped at a straw: "Girl, is it possible for Xiaoxia to still have a baby after taking the medicine?"
No matter the cost, you absolutely must save her!
Qiao Manman forcefully pried her fingers apart: "I'm sorry, Aunt Chen, but it seems that Sister Xia's condition is really as the doctor said."
Feng Yu slumped to the ground, her eyes filled with despair.
Chen Xiaoxia rallied: "If I can't have children, I can't have children. I'd rather live alone than have a child with a beast like Liu Dazhu."
"Yes, leaders all say that men and women are equal, so why should we women have to be good wives and mothers? We are just as good as them, and we can also contribute to the country."
Qiao Manman placed the basket on the bedside table: "I brought you some steamed egg cake. Eat it all by yourself and nourish your body."
Chen Xiaoxia hummed in agreement, opened the oil paper package, and smelled a rich aroma of eggs.
The stimulation made her mouth water, and even her stomach rumbled involuntarily.
Chen Xiaoxia picked one up and took a bite, discovering that the sponge cake was fragrant and sweet, far more delicious than those from the supply and marketing cooperative.
After finishing the food in a few bites, I wanted to take another one, but I saw Feng Yu staring intently at the basket.
"Xia..." Mother wants to try it.
Remembering Qiao Manman's instructions, Chen Xiaoxia wrapped up the sponge cake and hid it under the covers.
Changing the subject: "Mother, where is Little Qiao?"
Feng Yu turned her head but didn't see Qiao Manman. She muttered, "Did she leave? Why didn't she say anything?"
Qiao Manman had to go to work and didn't have time to chat with the two of them.
After leaving the health center, I hopped on my bicycle and sped towards the machinery factory.
More than half an hour later, Qiao Manman successfully arrived at her destination.
I broke out in a thin layer of sweat, and then a gust of wind blew, and I sneezed loudly.
"Little Qiao, are you catching a cold?"
"No, no." Qiao Manman wiped her nose. "Good morning, Uncle Qin!"
"Good morning, good morning! Hurry up and go inside, don't be late for work!"
Qiao Manman locked the car and jogged upstairs.
As soon as I entered the office, my colleagues caught me and asked, "Why hasn't Director Yan returned yet? Does a business trip take that long?"
Qiao Manman was slightly surprised, then smiled and nodded: "Yes, it will be more than a week before I can come back. Have you been busy lately?"
"We've been quite busy. Your return will probably ease the pressure on everyone!" Zhang Shuhan brought over a thermos: "Want some water?"
Qiao Manman politely declined, wiped the table clean with a rag, washed the cups in the water room, and then made herself a strong cup of tea.
"Comrade Zhang, could you tell me about the recent situation at the factory? Also, who is temporarily in charge of our department's work?"
Zhang Shuhan nodded: "Of course!"
He quietly shared his recent work progress with Qiao Manman, and also mentioned the follow-up to Fan Zhiyong and Shi Ran.
"According to the police investigation, Shi Ran climbed over the wall to get in. After being fired, she was dissatisfied with the factory leaders and wanted to poison them."
Fan Zhiyong mistakenly ate it, and the two accidentally started fighting during the struggle...
He was later taken to the county hospital for emergency treatment, but died in the early hours of the morning despite all efforts.
Qiao Manman stared wide-eyed at Zhang Shuhan, who was talking nonsense with a straight face.
Of course, it's also possible that he genuinely didn't know the details. However, describing the drinking and making of sauces as a martial arts exchange is quite ingenious.
Qiao Manman was practically bursting with suppressed laughter. She asked, "Didn't the Fan and Shi families come to the factory to cause trouble?"
Zhang Shuhan shook his head: "No!"
The Fan and Shi families wanted to extort some compensation from the factory, but the police told them that the medicine was bought by Fan Zhiyong and the idea came from Shi Ran.
One was the mastermind, the other an accomplice, and they also had connections to Xiao Rizi's side. Even if they lived, they couldn't escape being executed.
The Fan and Shi families were terrified; they dared not cause any trouble for the factory.
After the case was settled, they moved out overnight, afraid that others would find out about the despicable things their son and daughter had done.
"As for the work, it's been under the personal management of Director Miao recently."
Qiao Manman hummed in agreement and looked at Zhang Shuhan with a smile: "Comrade Zhang, did you meet any girls you liked at the social gathering that night?"
Zhang Shuhan's face flushed red, but after the blush, he felt disappointed and dejected.
"what happened?"
Zhang Shuhan was too embarrassed to say it, but he couldn't figure out what was going on even after thinking about it for a week.
Ask your family, and they all say the girl is just teasing him.
"Comrade Xiao Qiao, I think Comrade Yuan Caidie from the supply and marketing cooperative is quite good."
She confessed her feelings to me one minute, and the next minute she said no. What do you think she was thinking?
Qiao Manman tried hard to recall the scene she had glimpsed: "Is there some misunderstanding between you two?"
"I, I don't know!"
Qiao Manman glared at him with exasperation: "If you don't know, just ask!"
Go to her counter when there are fewer people around and buy something. Ask her what she's thinking and if there's something you did wrong.
Comrade Zhang, a man should have a mouth; if you don't understand something, ask.
What's the use of keeping it to yourself? Maybe in a couple of days, someone else's kid will be old enough to run errands!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuhan panicked, fearing that Wu Caidie would be targeted by other men.
Seeing that he had taken her to heart, Qiao Manman got up and went to find Miao Shoujun.
When Miao Shoujun saw her coming over, he smiled and asked her to sit down.
Qiao Manman leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Boss, do any of the factory workers know Director Yan and Cadre Guo...?"
Miao Shoujun nodded: "On Monday, I had Secretary Zhang go to the office and the union to tell you that you and a few others went on a business trip."
That way, even if someone tries to drag them into a sex scandal, they'll have to think twice.
As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one will bring it up again in time.
Qiao Manman asked, "Boss, I haven't been to work for a while, could you please arrange some work for me?"
Miao Shoujun handed the documents to Qiao Manman: "Perfect, take a look and write a report for me!"
Qiao Manman accepted it: "Okay, boss, I'll go back and look into it, and get it to you as soon as possible!"
Before she left, Miao Shoujun asked, "Comrade Xiao Qiao, do you have any good ideas for making money lately?"
Qiao Manman's eyes lit up: "After I finish my report, I'll write you a plan."
"Okay, you've worked hard. I'll give you a bonus at the end of the year!"
Qiao Manman didn't really care about the money.
It can boost morale and reverse the decline, which is a good thing for both her and the factory.
She was happy to give the machinery factory a push.
When Qiao Manman returned to her office, she found Zhang Shuhan distracted.
He raised an eyebrow, sat down in his seat, and began to carefully study the documents and data from various departments.
He quickly came up with an idea and began writing furiously on the letter paper.
Zhang Shuhan, distracted, waited until noon before rushing to the supply and marketing cooperative.
I walked around inside, but I didn't see Wu Caidie.
After a moment's hesitation, I mustered my courage and stepped forward: "Comrade, isn't Comrade Wu Caidie from your unit here?"
