1021 Do Not Offend People



There was complete silence. Su Yang stood in the crowd like he was in a daze, as if he was not the person they were calling out for.

Old Madam Fan hurriedly pulled the stunned Su Yang over and said, "This is my son. He's Su Yang."

Chief Lu from the district office immediately smiled and said, "We're here to deliver the good news to your family! It's a joyous occasion for your family! Recently, there's a district office post that has become available. We've held a meeting and decided to let you take the position. The thing is it's not in our district, but another district. You have to be posted to Guang City. The workplace has a dormitory and a canteen there. Do you want to go?" Chief Lu asked.

"Yes, yes, yes! We'll go!" Before Su Yang could answer, Old Madam Fan quickly agreed.

The district office was a formalized workplace unit, which was a hundred times better than working in a factory. Although the salary was not as high as in the factory, it was a dignified workplace. It was something that one could flaunt proudly!

"Are you able to answer for him?" Chief Lu asked.

"Of course! My silly son is so happy that he can't speak. I'm his mother and I can decide for him! We'll definitely go!" Old Madam Fan said excitedly.

"There's also a job for you in Guang City. The two of you can go together," Chief Lu said.

Old Madam Fan hurriedly asked, "Oh, there's a job for me too! Then can I ask how much it pays per month?"

She was already so old. If the pay was only around 30 dollars a month, she would not take it! If the pay is so little, she might as well rest at home and live off her pension. Whenever she was free, she could go to the park for a walk and go dancing. In the event that a rich old man took a fancy to her, she would not have to worry about the rest of her life!

"Probably about 50 dollars. We're not from there, so we don't know the details. You'll only know when you get there," Chief Lu said earnestly.

"I'll go! Thank you for your organization's arrangements! Thank you so much!" Old Madam Fan said with a grin.

"But you have to be very aware about who is giving you this job. Don't accidentally offend them. The job can disappear at any time. Maybe it won't just be the job that can disappear." Chief Lu looked around at the people in the courtyard before finally turning to Old Madam Fan and saying in a deep voice, "Don't you think so?"

Old Madam Fan's smug expression instantly disappeared. She swallowed nervously and said, "Yes… That's right… I understand…"

The people in the courtyard who came to look for Old Madam Fan to intercede on their behalf gradually fell silent. They realized that these men were here to take them down a notch!

It was very difficult to find Chief Lu without making an appointment with him. The people from the district office were very busy every day and did not have the time to stop and talk about trivialities. Usually, they would use the loudspeaker to call out to whoever they were looking for and ask the person to go to the district office. There was no way that the chief would come over personally to send a message.

Whatever he just said was meant to tell all of them exactly how powerful Qiao Mei was and that they should think carefully who they could and could not afford to offend. These words were not just meant for Old Madam Fan alone. In the future, anyone who lived nearby should make sure that they did not become enemies with Qiao Mei.

"Alright, we've said everything we wanted to say. We're leaving now. Why are you all gathered here on such a freezing day? Don't catch a cold!" Chief Lu left after saying that.

When the rest of the people heard what he said, they also left the place one after another. A few of them disappeared even faster than Chief Lu. At the end, only Old Madam Fan and Su Yang were left in the courtyard, still immersed in the joy of having found jobs.

Once Old Madam Fan and Su Yang reached Guang City, Qiao Yu's good days would come to an end. Their workplace was only about 10 kilometers away from Qiao Yu's workplace and there was only one supply and marketing cooperative in that area. Sooner or later, they would bump into one another.

Guang City was also very close to Foshan Village. Xia Wen had already arranged for someone to go to the village to spread the news. When the time came, he would just watch the three families fall into chaos! Whatever happened next would be beyond Qiao Mei's control.

After resolving this matter, Qiao Mei finally felt at ease. From now on, no one would come shouting at her door every day. In addition, Qiao Yu would no longer have time to have any ideas about Xia Zhe in the future.

Late at night when it was time to go to bed, Xia He kept feeling as if there was a huge rock pressing on her chest, making her unable to breathe. No matter how hard she tried, she could not sleep well and could only toss and turn on the bed.
