Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 407 Following the Phoenix to Become a Handsome Bird

Old Mrs. Fan looked at Fan Xiaoyu, who had become a completely different person, in disbelief.

Is this still the same daughter who never fights back or talks back when hit or scolded?
The onlookers stamped their feet. "Oh dear, what does this mean? The bride price, taking away Fan Xiaoyu's job, and giving it to Old Fan's wife's eldest nephew?"

Good heavens, can an ordinary person do Fan Xiaoyu's job?

He's a master now, the kind who can train apprentices.

"You've been heartless and ungrateful to me all these years. You're not the kind of mother you should be. I'm a human being too. I can't keep letting you beat and abuse me. We were living peacefully, but you actually want to sell me out again. Mom, are you trying to completely sever our mother-daughter relationship?"

Fan Xiaoyu's voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for the onlookers to hear.

Old Fan's wife's expression had changed repeatedly.

I don't know if it's frozen or hot.

Anyway, her face turned blue, then purple, and even flushed red, which was quite a sight.

Fan Xiaoyu didn't give Li Cuizhi a chance to speak; she still had to go back to work.

"I'll say it again: from now on, I won't give you a single penny, and I don't need anyone to be a witness. Let's sever this so-called mother-daughter relationship. If we don't, you don't know what terrible mistakes you might make. I'm doing this for your own good."

Fan Xiaoyu turned to leave, but after a few steps, she stopped and said to her, "From now on, I have no family. Also, tell your second son and daughter-in-law that if they dare to have any more bad ideas about me, I will never forgive them!"

Old Granny Fan was so angry she couldn't speak. Her hands were trembling as she glared fiercely at Fan Xiaoyu: "You...you wretched child!"

A touch of sadness crept onto Fan Xiaoyu's lips as she said sarcastically, "Look at the Zhao family's daughter. When she was at her parents' home, her family treated her like a treasure. Even after she got married, her husband's family still treated her like a treasure. She even does whatever she wants in her husband's family, using her mother-in-law as a pawn and inciting her mother-in-law to harm her mother-in-law's own daughter. You're just living for your second daughter-in-law, you old slave, ptooey!"

With her hands in the pockets of her down jacket, Fan Xiaoyu ignored Li Cuizhi's extremely unpleasant expression, straightened her back, and strode towards her workplace.

The crisp air rushed into her chest, and Fan Xiaoyu took a deep, almost greedy breath, as if to release all the pent-up frustration she had accumulated over the years.

Then, this airflow, carrying an unprecedented lightness, was slowly and completely exhaled by her.

The heavy weight on my heart seemed to dissipate with that breath in the chill of winter.

It turns out that speaking your mind freely is so liberating.

Fan Xiaoyu looked up at the distant sky.

Although it was winter, she felt as if she were walking on a sunny spring avenue.

A gentle spring breeze, light footsteps, and the whole person feels as if they can leap up and fly.

The dozen or so people who had been watching the commotion by the roadside finally couldn't stand the cold and prepared to leave, but some couldn't help but criticize Old Fan's wife.

"What are you up to now? Things have been going well lately. Your daughter is so promising; she might even become an official someday. How could you not benefit from her?"

"Yeah, how did this escalate to the point of severing ties? You just came back from the neighborhood committee office, what happened? Did you go and cause trouble there again?"

"I really don't understand you, woman. Isn't that your own flesh and blood? Can't you feel sorry for this child?"

"To be honest, you're really stupid. A mother-in-law shouldn't mistreat her daughter-in-law, but you also can't let your daughter-in-law ruin your daughter's life. What kind of nonsense is this?"

"Yeah, the things your second son's wife said last time were really nasty, and she even threw the girl's things downstairs. My God, she was so arrogant."

"Serves them right, they're just spoiled."

"Let me tell you, if you favor your children and they don't help you, just wait and see. When you get old, none of your daughters-in-law will be filial to you."

"Hurry up and go. It's so cold. What are you standing there doing? If you catch a cold, you'll only suffer."

Passersby gradually left in the cold wind.

At this moment, Old Lady Fan was so angry that she was trembling all over.

In all her life, no one has ever spoken to her so bluntly.

No matter how we treated this brat before, she never dared to say a word against it. Even when we beat her, she would just kneel on the ground with her head in her hands and wouldn't even dare to beg for mercy.

Now they're even pointing their fingers at her and cursing. They've really gone too far!
Old Lady Fan felt that her authority had been challenged.

Hatred flashed in her eyes. She didn't even think about anything else, she just angrily thought that she would report Fan Xiaoyu, she would report Lu Qiaoge to the security department, and if the security department didn't do anything, she would go to the factory to find the leaders.

It was all Lu Qiaoge's doing. Fan Xiaoyu used to be so obedient, but now she dares to go against her.

It must have been Lu Qiaoge who instigated it.

She would never let Lu Qiaoge off the hook; she would make sure that brat was sent home too!
Doesn't the neighborhood committee not care?

I refuse to believe that Director Hao won't take any action.

There is no such thing as children who don't care about their parents.

Old Mrs. Fan wiped her snotty nose and stormed toward the security office.

At that moment, Lu Qiaoge was reporting to the two directors in the conference room.

Old Hu and the others all know about Chuhe's situation.

"I received a call from above saying that everything should be kept simple so as not to affect Mr. Chuhe's schedule, and that everything should be based on the orders."

Old Huang said from the side, "The grain and oil transported from Chuhe are exactly what we urgently need."

Leaving aside the needs of food factories, ordinary people also need to eat food.

In disaster-stricken areas, the food available is relief supplies.

"Don't worry, no one will hold us back." Old Hu's voice was full of laughter.

He trusted everything Lu Qiaoge did.

It's fine if he doesn't report to him and Lao Huang, but Lu Qiaoge did the right thing.

The procedures that must be followed must be followed.

Next, Lao Hu, Lu Qiaoge, Meng Qingshan, and the head of the finance department went together to complete the signing.

Upon hearing that Hu Ze was also going, Old Hu thought for a moment and then said, "Let your Aunt Huang go this time."

The main reason is to avoid suspicion.

Director Hu was overthinking things.

It's not good for both father and son to go.

Even in a factory, there might be a father and his five sons working in the same workshop.

However, signing a contract with the overseas Shunhe Group is a major event that has risen to the highest level, and its nature is different.

Old Hu sighed inwardly. He hadn't realized how outstanding his son, Hu Ze, was before, but after spending these past few months with Lu Qiaoge, the boy seemed like a completely different person.

It really does prove the old saying true: "Following the phoenix will transform you into a beautiful bird."

The signing went very smoothly.

Lu Qiaoge then briefly explained to them the purpose of Old Fan's wife's visit.

Director Hu asked, "What kind of potential partner is she introducing to her daughter?"

Lu Qiaoge: "It doesn't matter who she introduces, as long as Fan Xiaoyu doesn't agree, no matter who introduces her, it won't work."

Old Hu and Deputy Director Huang exchanged a glance.

They both chuckled.

But it must be said that those who can be protected by Lu Qiaoge are really lucky!
