Chapter 233: Chapter 230: June Rain

“Absolutely no regrets! My parents didn’t even meet before they got married, it was a blind and arranged marriage, yet they were still happily married. Besides, we’ve known each other for three years, and now I’m still fond of you. My parents said that as long as the character is fine, marriage can be managed to get better and better, otherwise, it’s all useless. I have confidence, we will surely grow old together.”

“But don’t worry, I’m not marrying you because I want to become a teacher, it has nothing to do with that.”

Sensibly, he thought: The words of a young girl are like the rain in June, when it falls, it falls; once the sky clears, whatever was said in the rain will be forgotten. It can’t be taken seriously.

But emotionally, he wanted to act on impulse this time, inexplicably, her words made him believe in love again.

In the end, Jiang Jian Country acted according to his emotions, but didn’t hold out hope, just waiting, the little girl would forget all about this by morning.

Jiang Jian Country didn’t mind Xia Xiaosi teasing him, after all, she was Yueyue’s friend, the filter of three thousand feet is not just for show.

The topic returned to Bai Meimei.

Under the old locust tree, Xia Xiaosi had slandered him on the spot, yes, slandered. She didn’t believe that Xia Xiaosi really had a marriage contract with Jiang Jian Country, others could say she was naive, but when it came to men and women relationships, she was never wrong.

It could only be said that the bastard Xia Xiaosi intercepted her, yet the villagers actually believed her.

The worst part was, Xia Xiaosi was even Jiang Jian Country’s sister’s childhood friend, which made it impossible to compete.

Bai Meimei spat a mouthful of old blood, feeling aggrieved as she walked back alone to Liu Village, only to accidentally run into Jiang Jian Country taking Xia Xiaosi back to Liu Village.

She wanted to question Jiang Jian Country if he was blind, but ultimately held back. Not only that, she hid behind a stone.

Watching that couple talking and laughing, Bai Meimei only felt that today she was just making a wedding dress for someone else, she gained nothing herself.

******

Lately, Jiang Zhenzhu had been living quite joyfully.

Director Jian originally arranged for her to work in the workshop, but Jiang Zhenzhu refused the dirty and tiring job, immediately buying gifts to visit Old Mrs. Yang.

Old Mrs. Yang, also known as Yang Fang, was Director Jian’s mother-in-law who regarded Jiang Zhenzhu as her savior.

The savior personally visiting, made Old Mrs. Yang even more fond of this girl. She immediately took her in as a god-granddaughter. Since she was a god-granddaughter, their visits naturally became frequent. Within a week, they seemed like a new grandmother and granddaughter duo.

Her own granddaughter didn’t like the son-in-law’s job arrangement, so she went to nag in front of the son-in-law. No matter how principal the son-in-law was, he couldn’t withstand the mother-in-law mentioning her deceased daughter. The old lady truly had power, knowing how to hit the other’s soft spot, solving the issue smoothly without any harsh words.

Thus, Jiang Zhenzhu went from a designated workshop worker to a personnel department officer.

On her first day in the personnel department, Jiang Zhenzhu was satisfied with everything except for one thing – working in the same department as Zhou Ye.

Zhou Ye didn’t expect that her original close sister-in-law had become an awkwardly positioned sister-in-law, the mother-in-law’s illegitimate daughter… this identity was too embarrassing to be mentioned.

And this sister-in-law even committed a crime and was sent to a labor farm for a year, which was even more embarrassing, the kind that you would purposely avoid from afar.

But… the sister-in-law whom they thought would sink in a muddy ditch, made a beautiful turnaround, not only becoming a hero who saved lives but also being taken in as a god-granddaughter by the Director’s mother-in-law, turning a lousy hand around, suppressing others in the personnel department. The reason being, she has good connections, the critical backing being the Director’s most respected mother-in-law.

On the first day of meeting the sister-in-law, Zhou Ye was silent all morning, ultimately submitting to reality, and proactively greeting Jiang Zhenzhu.

Soon the two became once again the laughing and talking sister-in-law pair they used to be, though each had their own calculations in mind.

But Zhou Ye never imagined that the sister-in-law who smiled and chatted with her would turn around and report her for using state resources for personal gain.

Zhou Ye was beyond angry. She had merely lent a sausage machine to a relative; how did that become personal gain? Was it because of half a pound of brown sugar? Isn’t it customary for relatives to bring something when visiting? Does this count? Moreover, it was commonplace in the factory!

Zhou Ye believed Jiang Zhenzhu was avenging personal grievances. After Jiang Zhenzhu went to the farm, she had written several times to ask the couple for help, but how could the couple have the ability to get her out? Was it not a legal issue? How could ordinary people intervene? Do you have to be hated for not being able to help?

Zhou Ye felt extremely aggrieved, crying with Jiang Yihai at night. Jiang Yihai also felt that Jiang Zhenzhu was being unreasonable, returning to eat with Jiang Zhenzhu at the state-run restaurant, only to get swindled by his sister without any help, while she claimed to be a law-abiding good comrade.

Pfft!

In short, in the eyes of Zhou Ye and her husband, Jiang Zhenzhu was a small-minded person enlivened by success, finding a Director’s mother-in-law as her backing and disregarding her elder brother and sister-in-law.

They turned back to Xu Ya, but Xu Ya was entangled in disputes with Jiang Kangsheng, having no time to care for them.

Going back and forth, Zhou Ye’s hatred escalated.

She had already been demoted to a humble warehouse keeper, hard and tiring with no prospect, who could withstand this?

One day, Zhou Ye confronted them, but neither side gained any advantage.

Once the battle erupted, there was no turning back, for instance, between Zhou Ye and Jiang Zhenzhu. It was a life-and-death struggle.

Those in the factory who knew couldn’t understand such operations; were they not family? How did it escalate to life and death?

Jiang Zhenzhu’s sudden targeting of Zhou Ye wasn’t without cause.

The reason lay with Xue Zongsheng.

This man was still deeply affectionate towards her, at least that’s what she felt, but that painting had long been a thorn in her side.

She just didn’t pierce it.

You say you love me, then I believe you.

In her view, it was all Zheng Honglian’s fault.

Internally, Jiang Zhenzhu was always looking for a way to get revenge, if Zheng Honglian was previously a tool for her, now she just wished to smash and shatter this tool.

Just waiting for the opportunity.

Only while waiting for the opportunity, that shameless woman actually sought out her man, Xue Zongsheng avoided her, but that woman still didn’t give up.

The result was that Zhou Ye, this woman, Zhou Ye dared to…

Zheng Honglian found Zhou Ye to meet Xue Zongsheng. Both are old acquaintances, Jiang Zhenzhu didn’t believe Zhou Ye wasn’t aware, yet this woman dared to connect them and provide cover; it could only be said that Zhou Ye deserved it!

And Zhou Ye assumed her mischief was flawless, it was your friend, after all, at that time you let your friend contact Xue Zongsheng, then to reach out to Cui Mingshi!

Simply put, this former pair of close relatives exposed their infighting, while others enjoyed the drama, adding a bit of entertainment to the harsh work life.

That day, Wan Chao appeared at the food factory gate, only half an hour before the end of the workday.

Originally, Zhou Ye had returned from the office with signed approvals, not wanting to linger by the gate, but she helplessly heard him shouting about wanting to see Jiang Zhenzhu.

Zhou Ye saw a small red flower pinned to his chest, which fell to the ground during a struggle with the security guard, stepped on, the red flower turned into a mud flower, and a gust of wind blew, the mud flower disappeared, perhaps becoming a real mud flower in some corner.

The key point was, in Zhou Ye’s one-minute pause, this man displayed all sorts of bad behavior.

Great! He was actually related to Jiang Zhenzhu.

“Comrade Jiang Yuan, let him in, Comrade Jiang Zhenzhu is waiting for him in the office.”
