Returning wealthy individuals develop their hometowns and become rich in the 1980s

"Lotus Fragrance!"

Liu Guomin's "Lianxiang" was tinged with bitterness, carrying a hint of reluctance and unwillingness, especially seeing Chen Lianxiang's life getting better and better since their divorce, and how she had become more beautiful and elegant. He was filled with regret.

Chen Lianxiang pressed down hard on the trunk of the "Zhaoyebai" with her right hand, and the trunk door slammed shut with a thud, causing her light blue chiffon dress to flutter. She raised her left wrist, which was adorned with the Patek Philippe watch given to her by Lin Qingsheng, and smoothed her hair behind her ear without replying.

"Secretary Wang, Secretary Tian," Chen Lianxiang's gaze quickly swept across the faces of the newcomers before she asked, "What are you all up to?"

Wang Fuquan cleared his throat, took half a step forward, and put on an ingratiating expression that a cadre shouldn't have. "Lianxiang, we're here today because there are some things we want to talk to you about in person."

"Hehe!" Chen Lianxiang smiled, puzzled. "What important matter requires Secretary Wang to bring people to my house to discuss it?"

Wang Fuquan sensed the displeasure in Chen Lianxiang's tone. He smiled and stepped forward to comfort her again. "Lianxiang, it's like this. Liu Guomin heard that you plan to remarry and may take the children abroad. He's worried about the three children, so he came here to talk to you in person about their future."

"What's there to talk about regarding the children?" Chen Lianxiang's face darkened completely upon hearing Tian Chulian mention the children. She looked at Liu Guomin and said, "Liu Guomin, if you have something to say, say it right here!"

Liu Guomin suddenly raised his head, met Chen Lianxiang's gaze, and his lips trembled twice, "Lianxiang, I..."

"What kind of impression will it make if we stand here at the gate and talk like this?" Wang Fuquan said with a smile as he stepped forward. "Lianxiang, let's go inside and talk!"

"Hey, wait! Why can't we say this in broad daylight? Why do we have to be so secretive?" Chen Lianxiang didn't move an inch, crossed her arms, and looked up at Liu Guomin. "Liu Guomin, when you took that five thousand yuan, what did you promise my fourth and fifth brothers? And now you're pulling this stunt on me?"

"You've got no shame! Like mother, like son, Liu Guomin. I see now, how can someone be so shameless!"

Chen Lianxiang's words left Liu Guomin speechless. Wang Fuquan tugged at Tian Chulian, who was watching the show from the sidelines, and gestured to Old Tian, ​​"You damn well better say something!"

Do you want me to offer you another cigarette and brew you some tea? You might as well just pull up a chair and sit there and watch the show.

Tian Chulian reluctantly spoke up, "Lianxiang, don't be in such a hurry. Let's go inside and sit down to talk things over, okay? Take your Uncle Tian's advice and go inside!"

"Impossible! Secretary Tian, ​​it's not that I'm not giving you face today, but my Chen family will never let a shameless person like Liu Guomin step into our door. I, Chen Lianxiang, will never sit under the same roof as him," Chen Lianxiang shook her head resolutely.

Just then, Ronghui poked his head out from the courtyard gate. Seeing that his aunt was being surrounded by several people, he immediately ran back to the main room and shouted to Chen Xiangui, "Uncle, something terrible has happened! Aunt is being bullied!"

"What! That guy has the guts to bully my daughter!" Huang Lanzhi, who was frying eggs for Ronghui in the kitchen, forgot to turn off the stove when she heard Ronghui's shout. She grabbed the spatula and stormed out of the kitchen.

Seeing his wife's posture, Chen Xiangui was afraid something might happen, so he hurriedly followed her out, forgetting even to put on his shoes. He wasn't worried about his wife and daughter getting hurt; given his wife's fierce nature, he was mainly afraid that the people 'surrounding' his daughter, Chen Lianxiang, would be beaten.

Grandma Wei Shufen, who was sitting in the armchair in the main room, straightened up and waved to Xiao Ronghui, saying, "Jimi, go next door and call your father."

"oh!"

Before Xiao Ronghui could run out the door, Wang Xuewen, the bodyguard who had been guarding the first floor of the neighboring building, came out and looked at Huang Lanzhi, who was pointing at Liu Guomin, Fang Songmao and others and cursing them. He did not dare to leave his post without permission, but contacted another teammate through the walkie-talkie and asked him to come over immediately.

Huang Lanzhi started scolding everyone by name, her words as sweet as honey, relentless and unforgiving, leaving Wang Fuquan dumbfounded. He really hadn't expected that Huang Lanzhi was truly 'the rumors don't lie,' indeed exceptionally fierce.

"You heartless bastard, Liu Guomin, you shameless fellow who treats hemorrhoids like acne on your face! Did you know my daughter was planning to get married, and you deliberately came to our Chen family to sabotage her?"

"Let me tell you, someone like you, full of bad intentions..."

"Lanzhi, that's enough, stop cursing," Tian Chulian said, quickly stopping Huang Lanzhi as she got more and more carried away with her rant. "We can just sit down and talk things out, there's no need to resort to insults."

"Yes, Sister-in-law Chen, there's no need to use such harsh language," Wang Fuquan added.

Upon hearing Wang Fuquan, the Party Secretary from a neighboring township, say this, Huang Lanzhi immediately turned her attention to him, coldly asking, "This is a matter between the Chen and Liu families. What are you doing here? What business is it of yours?"

"How can it not matter?" Liu Guoliang, who was furious after being scolded by Huang Lanzhi, immediately retorted when he saw Wang Fuquan, who had stood up for them, being criticized. "Shaozhong and Shaoqun's household registrations are still in our Shangzhai. Secretary Wang is the secretary of our Shangzhai street office, so he has the right to coordinate this matter!"

"You've made an example of someone, helping the Liu family cause trouble at our Chen family's place, haven't you? Fine, you just wait," Huang Lanzhi shouted to her husband, Chen Xiangui, "Go call the police, call the eldest brother, and have him call and ask Secretary Lin of the District Committee..."

"Oh dear! No, no, no, Sister-in-law Chen, please don't call!" Wang Fuquan was so scared that he almost knelt down. If Chen Xiangui really made the call, Wang Fuquan would really be in deep trouble.

"Xianggui," Tian Chulian hurriedly called out to Chen Xianggui, "it's just a small matter, there's no need to make such a big deal out of it. Let's all sit down and talk it out calmly, and everything will be fine."

"What are you talking about?"

Chen Dong had just come out of the small building and overheard Tian Chulian's words. He glanced at Liu Guomin and Fang Songmao, and Lin Qingsheng, who had come downstairs with Chen Dong, walked up to Chen Lianxiang and whispered, "Axiang, are you alright? They didn't lay a hand on you, did they?"

"I'm fine," Chen Lianxiang shook her head. Lin Qingsheng then looked at the people opposite him, without saying a word, but his eyes were very sharp.

"Ah Dong, it's better to discuss this inside. It's not good for either of our families' reputations to talk about it here," Tian Chulian said solemnly. Chen Dong turned to Chen Xiangui, "Uncle, what do you think?"

"No, we need to talk at the neighborhood committee office," Chen Xiangui shook his head, refusing to let Liu Guomin step into his house again.
