1979: My fiancée is a goddess

Chapter 98 Departure
The two of them returned to the hospital, each holding a newspaper, talking and laughing.

"Cheng Kaiyan, will you continue to write children's literature? I think you have a talent for writing children's literature. Do you want to try again? I heard that this year the government will establish an award for children's literature, called the National Excellent Children's Literature Award.

Your article "Submarine at Night" may have a chance of winning. If you write a few more, the chance of success will be much higher."

When they arrived at the hospital entrance, Xu Dexia finally couldn't help but ask. She had always wanted to ask Cheng Kaiyan for an article.

I came across it today, it’s really a great opportunity.

"Well... let's see. I will definitely write, but not now. Maybe when I get married and have children, I will definitely write more."

Cheng Kaiyan looked at the concerned expression on editor Xu Dexia's face, thought for a moment and said.

Xu Dexia was very happy to hear the first sentence, but she was a little frustrated by the second sentence. "After all, I am the first editor in your life, right? Wait until you get married and have children? Then how long should I wait?"

"Who knows?"

Cheng Kaiyan smiled and strode forward.

Xu Dexia followed behind and murmured unwillingly.

When they arrived at the inpatient department, a middle-aged man stood in front of them, followed by a young man.

The middle-aged man asked, "Xiaoxia, where have you been? Aren't you here to deliver food? Your mother and I have been looking for you for a long time."

"I went out for a walk with my friends."

Xu Dexia looked up and said, then pointed at Cheng Kaiyan and said, "Dad, this is my friend and author under me, Cheng Kaiyan. Cheng Kaiyan, this is my dad."

"Hello, Uncle Xu."

Cheng Kaiyan greeted him, but the other party acted very calmly.

It was only after Xu Dexia leaned over to the man's ear and whispered something that he looked at Cheng Kaiyan in surprise and said in a friendly manner, "Hello, hello."

After the three people introduced themselves, Cheng Kaiyan learned that this man was Xu Dexia's father, named Xu Lixin, and was a leader in the textile factory.

The man standing next to him is the factory's secretary, Secretary Zhang.

Cheng Kaiyan was inspired and asked about Sister Qiaoqiao's situation: "Uncle Xu, do you know that there is a worker named Nie Qiaomei in your factory?"

"Is this Kaiyan your relative?"

Xu Dexia was a smart person and knew that it must be his relative.

"Yeah, I just wanted to ask about her situation at the factory."

Seeing Uncle Xu frowned, Cheng Kaiyan explained.

"I don't have much impression of this person. Although the working environment in the factory is a bit tough, the salary is still good. Do you know Xiao Zhang, the officer?"

Xu Lixin thought about it and looked at Secretary Zhang on the side.

"I have some impression of this name. Before, there seemed to be someone named Tang Ermei who said she was her sister-in-law. She wanted to take her place and asked me what conditions I needed. Their village is next to ours, so I remember it very clearly."

Secretary Zhang glanced at Cheng Kaiyan and then at Xu Lixin.

This kind of thing is actually not uncommon in factories. Its nature is similar to taking over a shift, but it cannot be discussed openly.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Director Zhang."

Cheng Kaiyan frowned, sneering in her heart. So that's how it is. This family...

Ha ha!

When Secretary Zhang saw Cheng Kaiyan's face suddenly turn cold, he immediately understood what was going on.

Xu Lixin was no exception. He thought about it carefully and said, "If you need anything, you can ask Xiao Zhang to help."

"Yes, Comrade Cheng, our village is right next to theirs. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me."

Secretary Zhang immediately patted his chest and said cheerfully.

"Okay, thank you so much, Director Zhang. To be honest, I'm on my way to visit my relatives and wish them a happy New Year, and I'm worried about not knowing the way!"

Cheng Kaiyan nodded, took out a box of Peony cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over.

"That's easy, don't worry, I have to go back soon." Secretary Zhang immediately laughed, took it and touched it. This is the Peony brand. Most people would not be willing to smoke such good cigarettes.

This young comrade must be a big shot from Beijing!

Haven’t you seen that the director is always so kind?

……

After lunch, I chatted with my mother and aunt, and mentioned going to Nanzhuang Village to see Sister Qiaoqiao.

Then Xu Dexia and Secretary Zhang came and knocked on the door, and the three of them prepared to leave.

Nanzhuang Village is not far from the county, less than ten miles away, and it takes more than an hour to ride a bike.

Xu Dexia also followed because she wanted to ride her bicycle.

Secretary Zhang rode a bicycle in front to lead the way, and Cheng Kaiyan took Xu Dexia and headed straight for Nanzhuang Village.

Nanzhuang Village is in the northwest of the county.

There is a small hill next to the village. A road has been built around the hill. It is very convenient to ride a bike from the county, but it is still a mile away from the village on a muddy road.

The road was a bit muddy and it was a bit difficult to walk on.

Half an hour later.

The three of them walked along a small gravel slope and finally arrived at the entrance of Nanzhuang Village. As soon as they entered the village, they heard a few ladies chatting in the intelligence center under a big tree at the entrance of the village.

"Have you heard everything? The eldest daughter-in-law of the old Tang family, Qiaomei, is having a fight today."

"Little Rongpo, what's going on? Isn't Qiaomei the most honest girl?"

"Even honest people can get angry someday, I heard that from others.

Didn’t the eldest daughter-in-law of the Tang family go out to pay New Year’s greetings on the first day of the new year, carrying some gifts with her, and not come back until after six in the evening?

I heard that she was a relative whom I hadn't seen for several years. I liked her so much when I saw her that I gave the little girl a big red envelope and a lot of White Rabbit milk candies.

Qiaomei didn't know at the time, so she went home to cook and feed the child. Later, the girl followed Ermei and Sanxi to play.

The child was eating candy. White Rabbit is a good thing, only available in Beijing.

When Sanxi saw it, he snatched it away. Dahai scolded him for being shameless and stealing things from a child.

You know Cuiping, she is very sarcastic and likes her youngest son.

After a few words, Cuiping started quarreling with Dahai.

The lady with a granuloma on her mouth was muttering while covering her mouth with one hand, her eyes wandering around.

"Sanxi is really not a good kid. He is too mean. He even snatched the candy from my niece. It's obvious that he has no future. It will be bad luck for any daughter to marry him in the future."

"Of course not. The Tang family has been poor peasants for three generations. They have a good family background. Who would want to marry into their family?

If it weren't for Qiaomei working in the textile factory, this family would have gone bankrupt! Still want to study and get married?"

"That's it!"

Several ladies sneered at this and chirped.

"Ahem! I haven't finished what I'm saying yet."

"That night, Ermei and Sanxi saw the red envelope in Xiaobao's pocket without paying attention.

How could a one or two-year-old child understand these things? Ermei and Sanxi swindled the money and went to the county to buy a lot of food, drinks and toys, and came back to show off in front of Qiaomei.

Qiaomei didn't know it at that time, but she suddenly remembered it at noon today. She looked for the child but couldn't find him. When she asked again, the child pointed at Ermei Sanxi.

Qiaomei was definitely not willing to accept this, so she grabbed the two of them and started a fight. "
