Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.
Chapter 258 Even Wenrou is driving a car now.
"Don't drink it." Seeing this, Wenrou hurriedly stepped forward and knocked the bowl out of Tan Lin's hand, onto the ground.
"Xiao Rou, you..." Tan Lin's expression changed slightly when she saw Wen Rou arrive.
She looked at the bowl of black water on the ground, her eyes filled with regret.
At this moment, Wen Jinian stepped forward and hugged Tan Lin, saying, "Wife, let's go home and not have the child."
When she saw Wen Jinian arrive, Tan Lin hugged him and cried again.
"Jinian, I want a child. Please let me drink that bowl of medicine. If I drink it, we will have our own child." Tan Lin's tone was almost pleading.
"Second sister-in-law, this is all a lie. I've already checked. This old woman Wang has cheated a lot of people. This medicine contains hallucinogens, and it's very harmful to the body if you take it," Wenrou quickly explained to Tan Lin.
"What are you saying? This is a fertility soup. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. How dare you come here and cause trouble? Don't you know where you are?" Granny Wang, seeing that someone was ruining her business, gave Wenrou and Wen Jinian a good scolding.
Wenrou looked at her with disdain and sneered, "A fertility-granting soup? You really think you're Guanyin Bodhisattva?"
"I've already reported it to the police. The officers from the Public Security Bureau will be here soon. Give me back all the money my wife gave you," Wen Jinian warned at this moment.
Upon hearing this, Granny Wang's expression immediately changed.
Feeling guilty, she threw down the money and ran away.
Wenrou and Wen Jinian were busy comforting Tan Lin and did not stop her.
However, as soon as she ran out of the village, she ran into the police officers coming towards her.
After Wenrou and Wen Jinian took Tan Lin back, she realized that she had been deceived.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong," Tan Lin apologized to Wen Jinian and Wen Rou.
If they hadn't arrived in time, she doesn't know what would have happened.
The police also told her that Granny Wang was a fraud, which shattered Tan Lin's last glimmer of hope.
If she had never had a child, she wouldn't have had any expectations. But she finally got pregnant, and now she's lost the baby. She still can't accept it.
Wenrou felt a pang of sadness seeing Tan Lin like this.
"Second sister-in-law, as long as we get our bodies back in good shape, we'll have a baby. Please don't do anything foolish again," Wenrou said, hugging her gently.
Tan Lin nodded. "Thank you, Xiao Rou. Don't worry, I won't do it again."
After this incident, she realized that she had so many relatives who cared about her, and if something happened to her again, it would make those around her sad.
She now understands that whether the child comes or not is up to fate.
If she really doesn't have her own children in this life, she'll accept her fate.
Seeing that Tan Lin was in much better condition, Wenrou felt relieved and went home.
After she left, Wen Jinian looked at Tan Lin and his eyes reddened with heartache.
"I'm sorry, honey. I didn't notice you weren't feeling well and I didn't spend enough time with you, which is why I let you go to see that old woman Wang."
Tan Lin shook her head. "What does it have to do with you? It's just that I was stupid enough to be fooled."
She said that her colleague was being too kind, and that he was trying to take advantage of her inability to get pregnant in order to replace him at work.
The police also said that it was Wang Pozi who told her that someone had given her money to specifically harm Tan Lin.
Now that she has calmed down and thought about it carefully, she realizes that it was all because of her outstanding performance at work over the years.
After being transferred to Beijing, Tan Lin rose to the position of deputy section chief in just one year.
She was already very capable, and with the connections she had built up, she was able to secure many large collaborative projects for her company, which helped her gradually rise to her current position.
Of course, Tan Lin had already attracted a lot of jealousy and targeting because of her previous housing allocation. Now, because of her outstanding performance, she was promoted faster than others, which also caused dissatisfaction among her colleagues.
It was precisely because of this that the news of her inability to get pregnant somehow reached her workplace.
Now, wherever she appears, people will talk about it behind her back.
She was manipulated this time, which almost led to a major disaster.
Upon thinking of this, Tan Lin's eyes immediately turned cold.
She stopped thinking about having children. Since she couldn't get pregnant and didn't have the worries of raising children, she turned all her grief and anger into motivation and focused all her energy on her work, striving to climb the ranks step by step from her current position.
Wen Jinian was relieved to see that Tan Lin had finally come to her senses.
The next morning, Tan Lin composed herself and went to work.
The colleague who had introduced her to Granny Wang earlier showed a hint of surprise in his eyes when he saw that she was alright.
"Tan Lin, are you... are you alright? I introduced you to that old woman Wang, have you gone to see her?" the man asked tentatively as he stepped forward.
"I went to see her, but unfortunately, I happened to see her being taken away by the police." Tan Lin said coldly, looking at her.
The man was taken aback when he heard this, and then dared not ask any more questions.
Tan Lin glanced at her, then turned and went back to her office.
After that, Tan Lin focused all her attention on her work and stopped thinking about having children.
Her colleagues, seeing this, also began to feel nervous.
Their work abilities are not as good as Tan Lin's, so it seems that they will never have the chance to replace her again.
After this incident, Tan Lin was promoted to the position of section chief within six months.
As for Wen Jinian, he is now fully in charge of the transportation team's foreign trade affairs.
By 1986, the country was vigorously developing foreign trade, and the scale of the gentle transportation fleet was growing larger and larger, with more and more cooperative projects with foreign countries.
Over the course of a year, each employee received tens of thousands of yuan in bonuses alone.
Everyone now knows that the Red Star Transportation Team pays high wages, with each person earning an average of one thousand yuan a month.
If someone in your family works for the Red Star Transportation Team, you can brag about it for a year or two.
Of course, many people are now desperate to join the Red Star Transport Team, but because Wenrou's assessment standards are too high, very few people can pass them completely.
This further highlights the abundance of talent in the transportation team, with each member possessing exceptional abilities.
Wenrou is currently taking her driver's license test. Although she can drive large vehicles, she doesn't have a license for small cars yet.
Seeing Peng Shao driving a car all the time, she also had the idea of buying a car.
However, the total number of cars produced nationwide is currently very small, and without a reliable channel, it is really difficult to buy one.
But who is Peng Shao? There's no car he can't get his hands on.
He would do everything he could to get Wenrou what she wanted.
"Leave the car to me, but you don't have a driver's license for cars. You need to get a driver's license first."
Wenrou heard him say that and went to register the next day.
The day she got her driver's license, she had just stepped outside when she saw a classic red Xiali parked at the door.
Wenrou stared wide-eyed as Peng Shao got out of the car.
"This...this is mine?" Wenrou asked excitedly.
Peng Shao smiled and nodded, "How does it feel to try it out?"
Wenrou eagerly opened the car door and climbed in, then started the car, shifted gears, stepped on the gas, and the car drove off.
She used to drive big cars, so driving a small sedan is no problem for her.
She drove around the streets, and many people looked in her direction, casting envious glances.
There are already very few cars on the streets, and most of them are black. There are probably no more than five red ones like this in the entire city of Beijing.
Wenrou drove around and arrived in front of Peng Shao. She had inquired about the price of Xiali at this time. For example, the price of Santana was around 80,000 yuan, and this car would conservatively cost 100,000 yuan.
Over the past few years, she has saved up several hundred thousand yuan, which is certainly enough to buy a car.
"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Peng Shao asked as Wenrou got out of the car.
Wenrou nodded gently, "It's alright, it's easy to drive. I'll transfer the money to you tomorrow."
They had agreed that Peng Shao would help her get a car, and Wenrou would give him a discount in return. Of course, she would give him every penny of the money.
Peng Shao knew that Wenrou wouldn't want the car if he didn't ask for money, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
In 1986, the average worker's salary was at most eighty yuan, and the price of a car was enough for them to work for a hundred years.
Even those who now live on 10,000 yuan a month can't afford such a new car.
Wenrou now has to travel back and forth between the transport team and her home every day. Before, she always rode a bicycle, which usually took more than two hours for a round trip.
Sometimes the roads are slippery when it rains, and I've gotten soaked on the road several times.
Now that I have a car, I don't have to worry about wind, sun, rain, or slippery roads.
However, after getting the car, she still needs to take her household registration book, purchase invoice, and vehicle certificate to the vehicle management office to register it.
After Wenrou went home and collected the materials, she went directly to the vehicle management office.
Once the car has license plates, it can be driven directly on the road.
On the way back, Wenrou drove all the way to the entrance of the military compound.
It was rush hour, and after her car stopped, many people at the entrance of the military compound looked at her.
"Whose car is this? It must be expensive."
"This car probably costs tens of thousands of yuan; we wouldn't even dare to dream of owning one."
"People who can afford to drive this kind of car must be very rich."
When Wenrou got out of the car, everyone around her stared wide-eyed.
They were all shocked and envious that the person driving such an expensive car was a woman.
"Isn't that Director Huo's wife? It's her car."
Some people recognized Wenrou's identity and were even more surprised.
Wenrou parked the car, greeted the security guard at the entrance, and went inside.
When she got home, she didn't see Huo Yanchuan and the children. She made a phone call and learned that Huo Yanchuan had arranged for them to be picked up and taken to his workplace.
He has to work overtime today, so he'll be back a little late.
Hearing this, Wenrou closed the door again and went downstairs, preparing to go to Huo Yanchuan's workplace to pick them up and bring them back together.
Now that I have a car, it's convenient to go anywhere.
When Wenrou drove to Huo Yanchuan's workplace, unsurprisingly, she attracted a lot of attention.
Wenrou had been here before, so someone recognized her as soon as she got off the bus.
They were all shocked to see that it was Wenrou driving the car.
"Mom." As soon as Wenrou entered, the two children saw her and ran towards her.
Huo Yanchuan finally finished his work and saw Wenrou as soon as he stepped out of the office.
"Why did you come here today?" he asked as he walked over.
"Nothing much, I'm just here to pick you up."
She looked gently at Huo Yanchuan, "Are you done with your work?"
"Okay, let's go home." Huo Yanchuan originally wanted to take a taxi, but he saw the red sedan as soon as he stepped out the door.
He was taken aback, and then he saw that Wenrou had already led the children over.
"Mom, is this our car?" The two children were very excited to see the red sedan in front of them.
Wenrou nodded gently. "Yes, Mom just bought it. Let's get in the car."
She looked gently at Huo Yanchuan and said with a smile, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get in the car to go home!"
"Peng Shao really knows how to get things so quickly?" Huo Yanchuan said, opening the car door and getting in.
Wenrou had mentioned to him before that she wanted to buy a car. Because of his work, Huo Yanchuan didn't have much contact with people overseas, so his network of contacts wasn't as extensive as Peng Shao's.
However, Peng Shao did admire and was happy that he was able to buy Wenrou a car.
After getting into the car, Huo Yanchuan also experienced the gentle driving technique.
People at his workplace looked on with envy when they saw Wenrou drive to pick up Huo Yanchuan after get off work.
Previously, some people doubted that Wenrou was a good match for someone as outstanding as Director Huo, but now it seems that the couple are simply attracted to each other because they are both outstanding individuals.
He's not much better than that cultural troupe leader. I heard that Director Huo's wife runs her own transportation team and earns quite a bit.
In the presence of Wenrou, Huo Yanchuan almost became a kept man.
How can such an outstanding woman not be envied?
"Mom, we want to go pick up Brother Jiang Yan tomorrow too!" Yun Yao said loudly in the car.
Yun Shu nodded, "Yes, we want to go too."
With a gentle, indulgent look, she said, "Okay, I'll take you there."
Previously, every time Wenrou went there, she would hurriedly deliver some things to Jiang Yan and then come back.
Neither of them had been to Jiang Yan's school yet. Yun Yao's midterm exam scores had improved a lot, and she even received an award certificate, which she wanted to show Jiang Yan.
Although Jiang Yan is now in university, he comes back less and less often.
Even on weekends, he would stay at school and go to the library to read.
The two children haven't seen him for several months, and of course they miss him very much.
Not only them, but Wenrou hasn't been to Jiang Yan's school for two months.
Since the two children didn't have school on the weekend, Wenrou simply took them to pick up Jiang Yan.
Having a car now makes things much more convenient.
After picking him up in the morning, it's fine to take him back later; it only takes about an hour round trip.
