A well-behaved girl was deceived while searching for her husband; she married a childless military o

Yang Wenyan had originally intended to take good care of Qiao Lanshu.

Moreover, this matter also involves Qin Yuanzheng and himself.

As the factory director, this was the first time he had been slandered like this, especially by his sister-in-law.

Who could tolerate this!

Now that Secretary Wen had said so, he immediately nodded in agreement:

"This matter really needs to be thoroughly investigated. Some people dare to put up big-character posters without distinguishing right from wrong, making baseless accusations against female comrades regarding their conduct, which has greatly damaged their reputation! If this matter isn't investigated clearly, won't it mean that anyone can put up big-character posters at will in the future?"

Secretary Wen dared not offend the military officers. In addition, during his study trip to the province, he had indeed heard that some important departments had been infiltrated by spies, and that a crisis had previously occurred in which classified documents from a certain department were transferred.

There was even a dam that was under construction that was almost blown up.

The situation is very serious.

Therefore, upon hearing Yang Wenyan's statement, he immediately replied seriously, "Yes, this matter must be thoroughly investigated."

As he spoke, Secretary Wen's gaze swept over the female workers around him.

The female workers looked at him with bewildered expressions.

He quickly distanced himself, saying, "Secretary Wen, why are you staring at us like that? We didn't put up that big-character poster."

"That's right, we still have to go to work, so we'll be leaving now."

As they spoke, the workers quickly turned and ran away.

The crowded office suddenly felt empty.

Qiao Lanshu also said to Yang Wenyan, "Factory Director, it's getting late, I should go back to my post now."

Yang Wenyan nodded and comforted her, saying, "Comrade Xiao Qiao, don't worry, we will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and issue a public statement."

Qiao Lanshu and Wang Xue also came out of the office.

Wang Xue linked arms with Qiao Lanshu and whispered, "I think it was definitely those family workers who did this. They're just jealous of your promotion; they couldn't find an opportunity before, but now they finally have one..."

At this point, Wang Xue suddenly paused, as if she had just realized something. She stopped in her tracks, took Qiao Lanshu's arm, and looked at Qiao Lanshu's stomach.

This made Qiao Lanshu feel embarrassed.

Wang Xue stared for a while before lowering her voice and asking, "Are you really pregnant?"

Qiao Lanshu nodded shyly: "Really."

Wang Xue's eyes widened immediately. She clicked her tongue and said in a low voice, "This is truly unexpected!"

Wang Xue was very happy for Qiao Lanshu.

At the same time, she was also quite emotional, and said in a low voice, "Now that the news of your pregnancy has spread, I bet a lot of people are regretting it behind your back; quite a few female comrades went on blind dates with Commander Qin back then, and some of them refused to go on blind dates with him at all when they heard that he was infertile."

Putting aside the women Qin Yuanzheng didn't like, many women actually rejected him through matchmakers.

Some of the daughters of military officers, who had initially taken a liking to Qin Yuanzheng and even pursued him, were all scared away because of his infertility.

it's good now.

Qin Yuanzheng did not have infertility at all; his wife became pregnant as soon as they got married.

Wang Xue laughed and said, "The news of your pregnancy is worse than a slap in the face. I wonder what those girls who rejected Qin Tuan are thinking now?"

Qiao Lanshu said with a smile, "I never expected to get pregnant."

Qin Yuanzheng had always believed that he was infertile, so he did not use protection during sex.

He's finally broken his fast and he's so affectionate every day.

If Qin Yuanzheng had known she would get pregnant, he definitely wouldn't have let her get pregnant.

This time, however, it was an unexpected surprise.

Wang Xue then asked, "Have you written to your family? Pregnancy is a joyous occasion; tell them so they can share in the happiness."

Qiao Lanshu nodded.

When he learned that she had married a regimental commander, Qiao's father initially did not believe it.

It was Qin Yuanzheng, who was in the army, who sent him a telegram. Only then did Qiao's father confirm that it was indeed someone from the army who had sent the telegram.

Relieved, Mr. Qiao began sending her things occasionally, and he would reply quickly if she wrote a letter.

It's been a month since Qiao Lanshu last wrote to her father.

She thought to herself, "I'll write a letter to my father today and send some walnuts back with me."

Wang Xue accompanied Qiao Lanshu to the food factory warehouse. She said, "Don't worry about the big-character poster. Since the factory director and the secretary have both said they will investigate, they will definitely find out. Don't worry."

Qiao Lanshu wasn't actually worried. Compared to the previous incident involving Chu Liangjun, he didn't care about this kind of big-character poster.

She nodded: "I know, thank you, sister. Don't worry, I'm fine."

Wang Xue sighed and said, "I'm just worried about you having a miscarriage. You're only a little over two months pregnant. Generally speaking, it's not considered stable until after three months."

As Wang Xue spoke, the two arrived at the small hut in front of the warehouse. Wang Xue had to go to work, so she said goodbye to Qiao Lanshu.

Deng Weijun no longer dared to fetch water for Qiao Lanshu.

He felt guilty that he was the one who caused Qiao Lanshu to be gossiped about.

They didn't dare to come any closer.

Qiao Lanshu took the kettle and went to the water room to get water himself.

When we arrived at the hot water room, there were still quite a few people getting water.

When everyone saw Qiao Lanshu coming over, they all looked at her with strange eyes.

Qiao Lanshu ignored the stares and, when it was her turn, went to fetch a kettle of hot water.

At this moment, Liu Weihong brought over two kettles to fetch water.

Liu Weihong finally didn't wear her cashmere coat today. After all, it has been even colder these past few days, and she was afraid of getting herself sick from the cold, no matter how much she wanted to show it off.

Liu Weihong was wearing a newly made military green cotton-padded jacket and fleece-lined leather boots that looked more like deerskin boots, so they must have been expensive.

This Liu Weihong used to dress quite plainly, but ever since she found a boyfriend, she suddenly looks like a nouveau riche.

Qiao Lanshu had seen three scarves wrapped around her neck before. Given how precious cotton and fabric were, she bought these things as if they were free.

Qiao Lanshu wasn't exactly frugal; she only had two scarves.

One was bought when she first arrived, and the other was bought for her by Qin Yuanzheng.

If you use the two in reverse order, you won't need to buy any more.

Liu Weihong likes to show off these things; she enjoys being admired by others and has been living a comfortable life lately.

But this morning, as soon as she arrived at work, many people rushed up to her and said, "Manager Liu, did you know that Commander Qin's wife is pregnant?"

These people are all deliberately trying to make Liu Weihong a laughing stock.

Who told Liu Weihong to go on a blind date with Qin Tuan and then spread rumors about Qin Yuanzheng's infertility?

At that time, not many people knew about Qin Yuanzheng's infertility. It was thanks to Liu Weihong that the news was spread throughout the entire factory area.

Liu Weihong not only claimed that Qin Yuanzheng was infertile, but also said that Qin Yuanzheng was impotent.

In short, they've been thoroughly humiliated.

Everyone started laughing at her.

Some people said to her, "If only you had married Qin Tuan back then! What a pity, you weren't so lucky."

Some people even came to blame her: "Liu Weihong, you were the one who exposed Commander Qin's infertility back then. You weren't lying to us, were you? You just couldn't stand to see us doing well, right? You were afraid we'd marry Commander Qin and enjoy a life of luxury, so you used this to lie to us, just to prevent us from going on blind dates with Commander Qin! I told you, you're incredibly wicked!"

Liu Weihong had several arguments with others early this morning.

I was seething with anger.

She actually knew last night that Qin Tuan's family member was pregnant.

After all, the news had spread throughout the military, and the soldiers didn't try to hide it, since it wasn't exactly a military secret.

Liu Weihong was so angry last night that she couldn't sleep a wink.

I came here early this morning and got another round of bad luck.

Now, seeing Qiao Lanshu, he naturally didn't give her a friendly look.

Holding two thermos flasks, Liu Weihong looked at Qiao Lanshu and said sarcastically, "Oh, our warehouse keeper, why did you come to fetch water by yourself today? Didn't you ask a man to help you? I think you shouldn't do this kind of rough work by yourself, lest you miscarry and have an unstable pregnancy, which would be troublesome, and you'd have to borrow a man..."

As she spoke, she paused deliberately, then said with a smile, "Oh dear, I'm sorry, I accidentally said the wrong thing. Please don't take it to heart."

Qiao Lanshu glanced at her coldly, said nothing, and left with the kettle.

Liu Weihong: "..."

It felt like punching cotton; Liu Weihong immediately felt uncomfortable.

She's been holding in a lot of anger since last night and is eager to have a good argument with Qiao Lanshu.

Qiao Lanshu is quite the talker, isn't he?

Why aren't you saying anything now?

Liu Weihong immediately placed the two thermos flasks on the windowsill and followed Qiao Lanshu out: "Hey Qiao Lanshu, why aren't you saying anything? Did I guess everything right? Oh my, I really didn't expect that. You look so innocent, but you're actually playing this trick on me?"

There were quite a few workers coming to the hot water room to get water early in the morning.

What Liu Weihong said was heard by those around her.

However, everyone heard what Qiao Lanshu said in front of the bulletin board that morning.

Everyone is being cautious now and doesn't dare to gossip about Qiao Lanshu.

A group of people stood by and watched the spectacle.

Qiao Lanshu took the water bottle and walked a few steps, but she couldn't stand Liu Weihong's nagging any longer.

She stopped, looked at Liu Weihong, and said with a smile:

"Manager Liu, I know you're very upset that you couldn't marry Qin Tuan, but there's nothing we can do. Blind dates are all about mutual consent. Qin Tuan likes gentle girls. You're so fierce, domineering, and love to gossip. You're always arguing with people. Let alone Qin Tuan, even the workers in our factory would find it hard to like you."

Liu Weihong: "..."

Liu Weihong was stunned. Listen to what Qiao Lanshu is saying.

Most people would just think about it in their hearts and that's it, but Qiao Lanshu actually said it out loud?

Several male employees watching the commotion couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Liu Weihong was arrogant and looked down on the factory workers, little did she know that the factory workers looked down on her too.

Few men could tolerate her domineering personality.

Liu Weihong gritted her teeth in anger: "What nonsense are you spouting? It was me who didn't like Qin Yuanzheng back then! It wasn't that he didn't like me, you'd better get that straight."

Qiao Lanshu smiled again:

"I understand, I get it. You're an unmarried woman, and a manager at the food factory. You're concerned about your image, so it's normal for you to say things like that. But you'd better not say these things again. Otherwise, you'll offend the military officers, and your lovers will be too scared to associate with you. Then who will buy you coats, shoes, and watches?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Weihong immediately retorted, "You're talking nonsense! Do you think everyone's afraid of military officers? My boyfriend is a supplier..."

She had barely opened her mouth when she quickly covered it. Oh no, she had almost gotten Qiao Lanshu to tell her something.

Her boyfriend warned her not to reveal his identity!

Qiao Lanshu narrowed her eyes, staring at Liu Weihong: "Who's your boyfriend? Someone in supply? He's not from the supply department, is he?"

Qiao Lanshu asked the people around her, "I don't quite understand. I wanted to ask everyone, how many supply departments are there in our city? Is the head of the supply department the highest-ranking administrator? How much does he/she earn? Can he/she afford a cashmere coat, a watch, and leather shoes?"

These days, a regimental-level cadre's monthly salary is only a little over a hundred yuan. A little over a hundred yuan can only buy a watch at most.

I have to buy coats and leather shoes over several months at a time.

To spend so much money on things at once, it would probably take several years to save up.

After all, besides saving money, you also need to save cash.

Liu Weihong had just started dating her boyfriend, and they hadn't even registered their marriage yet.

So you're really that generous, willing to spend all your savings to buy her these things?

Qiao Lanshu felt something was wrong.

That's why she was just trying to trick Liu Weihong to see if she could get any information out of her.

As it turned out, she almost managed to trick him into revealing the truth.

Upon hearing Qiao Lanshu's words, Liu Weihong immediately became flustered.

She immediately said, "Don't talk nonsense. I don't know anyone from the supply department."

As she spoke, she hurried back to fetch water; "What goes around comes around. Qiao Lanshu, you know perfectly well how you got pregnant! You'll get your comeuppance sooner or later."

As she spoke, she quickly turned around, intending to walk into the hot water room. However, there were too many people around her. Upon seeing so many people, she immediately stopped getting hot water and turned to leave.

In a hurry.

A worker watching the commotion kindly reminded her, "Manager Liu, you haven't even filled the hot water yet, why are you rushing around like that?"

Several men were laughing there.

Liu Weihong was so angry that she didn't even take the water bottle and strode away.

Qiao Lanshu held the thermos in her hand, ignoring what everyone else was thinking.

He leisurely returned to the warehouse workshop.

She sat down in the small room and began sorting through the receipts. Anyway, her job was very easy, and she didn't have much to do.

She took out the red dates that Qin Yuanzheng had packed for her, and then took a piece of brown sugar and put them into the kettle to soak.

It's a pity I forgot to bring ginger. In this cold weather, I need to drink some ginger tea to keep warm.

Qiao Lanshu took a cup, poured herself a cup of jujube tea, and then took out a book and began to read.

In the afternoon, Yang Wenyan sent someone to fetch her to her office.

They investigated all morning, and it seems they have found something.

Therefore, we need to invite Qiao Lanshu to our office to talk.
