Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 405 A Heartless Thing
Everyone in the large office was stunned for a moment.

This is the first time I've seen Lu Qiaoge take such a tough stance.

In most cases, Lu Qiaoge's attitude is very gentle.

Sister Qiao and Sister Hua were worried that Old Fan's wife would turn against Lu Qiaoge, so they quickly stepped forward and stood beside Lu Qiaoge.

Everyone else looked over here too.

Old Lady Fan didn't expect Lu Qiaoge to change her expression so quickly; she was all smiles just now, but now her face was tense.

This made her heart race.

Finally realizing what she had said, she raised her voice in disbelief, her tone hostile: "You...you...Lu Qiaoge, what do you mean? Say it again."

Lu Qiaoge stared at her and actually repeated it again seriously.

Old Mrs. Fan immediately slapped her thigh and began to wail: "Oh dear, everyone come and judge this! What is this mediator from the neighborhood committee, Lu Qiaoge, the factory director of the food factory, saying? What right does she have to interfere in my daughter's marriage? Who does she think she is? And why can't I interfere? I am Fan Xiaoyu's own mother..."

Lu Qiaoge interrupted her and calmly questioned, "Are you Fan Xiaoyu's biological mother?"

Old Mrs. Fan retorted, "Of course I am! Fan Xiaoyu was born after ten months of pregnancy and I raised her with great difficulty."

"You're kidding me. You said you raised her with great care? Fan Xiaoyu started doing housework when she was five years old, and when she got a little older she started cooking for the whole family. Raising a daughter is more like raising a maid for your Fan family."

Look around our entire military factory family compound, which mother would treat her daughter like that?
Look at what you've done. Do you even consider your daughter a human being?
According to the regulations of the educated youth office, the person from your family who should be sent to the countryside should be your eldest or second eldest son, so it shouldn't be Fan Xiaoyu's turn.

As a result, you couldn't bear to part with your two sons, so you sent your daughter to work as an educated youth in the countryside.

You gave your job to your second daughter-in-law, so why didn't you give your daughter her temporary job?

Fan Xiaoyu spent several years working in the countryside, and she finally came back. How did you treat her?
He threw all her things out in front of so many people.

It's only been a short time since that happened, have you already forgotten?
Now we're here to manage Fan Xiaoyu's marriage.

How could you be so shameless?

What do you mean, that she had her nephew take over her work? Have you no shame?

That was Fan Xiaoyu's job, arranged by the organization. You just open your mouth and let your nephew take her place? Are you more powerful than our Director Hu?"

The large office suddenly became quiet. Everyone thought that Old Fan's wife would throw a tantrum and hit Lu Qiaoge, but when Sister Qiao saw her face gradually turning red, she felt relieved.

That's a very straightforward statement.

Many people disapproved of Old Fan's wife's preference for sons over daughters. Even those who came here on business, though they didn't say anything, all had expressions of agreement on their faces.

Lu Qiaoge softened her tone, but remained sharp: "It's only natural for men to marry and women to marry when they're of age. Fan Xiaoyu has found a suitable partner. Our craft factory will not only strongly support her, but will also allocate housing for her when we build staff dormitories next year. However, the partner you find for her cannot be arranged without Fan Xiaoyu's consent."

Lu Qiaoge then said impatiently, "You don't need to go to our leader. I'm in charge of this matter. You can go and report me. Go now, I absolutely won't interfere. Get out of here and don't disrupt our work."

Lu Qiaoge took a few steps forward, thought for a moment, then stopped, turned around to look at Old Fan's wife, and said coldly, "What a piece of trash, you inhuman thing. I've been a mediator in the neighborhood office for so long, and I've seen plenty of cases of favoring sons over daughters, but I've never seen anyone like you before."

I thought that after so long, you had finally seen Fan Xiaoyu's excellence, her hard work, and her obviously bright future, and that you could change yourself and treat your daughter better.

Who would have thought you'd still be the same as before, even coming here to turn the tables on me.

How could you have said those words?

Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?

Fan Xiaoyu is one of our key trainees. When we went to the Canton Fair, she was in charge of the entire arts and crafts factory by herself. She worked diligently and made no mistakes.

The straw handicrafts from the craft factory are now sold all over the world. Those huge orders are the result of the hard work of all the workers in the factory, and also represent foreign exchange that our country needs. You think you can just casually bring Fan Xiaoyu home, and even suggest having your nephew take her place?
What, are you now the director of a military factory? You can directly assign a reserve cadre to a job.

Who gave you that right?!

Then Lu Qiaoge said to Sister Hua, "Don't worry about her. She can cry and make a scene if she wants, hang herself if she wants, or do whatever she wants. Just write it down if she breaks anything. Didn't her second daughter-in-law take her job? Her second son has to pay for everything."

He then looked at Shao Le and said seriously, "Comrade Shao Le, go and investigate. Right now is the most important time for the arts and crafts factory's production tasks. I suspect that someone has ill intentions and wants to sabotage our arts and crafts factory's export and foreign exchange earnings!"

Shao Le immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll start the investigation now."

Lu Qiaoge's words and actions flowed so smoothly that everyone in the office was dumbfounded.

Many people didn't even realize it.

But why does it sound so happy and pleasant?
Meanwhile, Fan Xiaoyu, who was standing outside the main office, covered her mouth and started crying.

She had just found out that her mother had introduced her to a potential partner. Without even asking, she knew it wasn't a good one, because as long as the dowry offered was high enough, her mother wouldn't care who the other person was.

She gives the old lady five yuan every month to prevent her from causing trouble at her workplace and affecting her work.

Who would have thought that she would be bothered again just a few months later?

A flash of hatred crossed Fan Xiaoyu's eyes.

She doesn't owe the Fan family anything; it's the Fan family that owes her.

From now on, she won't give her a single penny.

What is she afraid of? She has Lu Qiaoge backing her up, and she has the organization as her support.

Moreover, she is no longer the Fan Xiaoyu she used to be.

She really likes Qiao Ge.

At this moment, Fan Xiaoyu was filled with gratitude.

Tears streamed down my face.

It seemed that all the grievances and injustices she had suffered over the years, as well as the unspeakable pain, were finally expressed by Lu Qiaoge at this moment.

Fan Xiaoyu felt more relaxed than ever before.

She wouldn't argue with this woman here; she would wait for her outside, determined to sever ties with her.

Lu Qiaoge saw a figure flash by at the door; it was Fan Xiaoyu. She had come running because she heard that Old Lady Fan had arrived.

Fan Xiaoyu was someone she was focusing on developing, and the craft factory was also very important; they planned to expand it in the future. She had to support Fan Xiaoyu.

But Fan Xiaoyu has learned her lesson now.

She did not have a conflict with her so-called biological mother in the main office.

I just don't know what they'll say on the way.

Lu Qiaoge did not let Xiao Cangcang show up.

This can be considered a test for Fan Xiaoyu.

Once she gets through this hurdle, her future will be brighter and brighter.
