Chapter 191 Retribution is coming
Chapter 191 Retribution is coming
He Meifeng's retribution came particularly quickly.
After all, the beauty and whitening medicine prescribed by Xu Yu showed everyone the real effect after a few months. After Xiao Tang exaggerated and said that she didn't want to come to the county to sell beauty medicine after being reported by He Meifeng, and hinted that as long as He Meifeng was taught a lesson and Xu Yu felt comfortable, everyone would continue to use her medicine, there were quite a few people who were willing to stand up and report He Meifeng.
On the third day after Xu Yu returned home, Xiao Tang called her to tell her the follow-up:
"He Meifeng has been taken away for investigation."
"The investigation team also found Dr. Li, and it turns out that He Meifeng took kickbacks from Dr. Li."
"Doctor Li has also been detained."
"She not only reported Dr. Li, but also reported Comrade Gu for being a hooligan and not taking responsibility for her."
"Comrade Gu was also taken in for investigation today."
"I heard that their factory has decided to fire them because of their ideological and moral problems."
At this point, Xiao Tang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I wonder how long Comrade Gu will be imprisoned? Anyway, He Meifeng will definitely be imprisoned for a long time. After what she did, I think she deserves to be imprisoned for three to five years."
Xu Yu said, "No matter how long they are imprisoned, you will finally not be bothered by them anymore."
Xiao Tang's voice was filled with laughter: "Yes."
Then Xu Yu talked about the medicine he had gotten for the three women: "I asked the driver here to bring it over. Did you receive it?"
Xiao Tang: "Got it. I've already given the medicine to them. I'll keep the money for you and give it to you when you come over."
Xu Yu: "Okay."
After answering Xiao Tang’s call, Xu Yu went back.
As the weather gets warmer, there is more farm work to do.
In addition to farm work, within a few days, truckloads of electric poles were transported to the town. Then, under the organization and leadership of the village heads and people's commune leaders, all the strong laborers in each village went out to carry the electric poles back to the village.
Then some electricians were sent over.
There is a shortage of power workers, so they asked each village to recommend a few young people to learn electrician skills.
Others were busy digging holes and burying telephone poles every day.
Regardless of gender, as long as they are strong, they all go out to work. After all, these are work points calculated separately. If they get more work points every day, the family can fill their stomachs better.
Xu Yu and the others didn't need to earn more work points, so Jiang Qingyun went out every day while Yang Wenhui took care of the poultry and the vegetables on their own private plots.
Xu Yuze often spent time in the pharmaceutical room developing various medicines.
She gave the medicine she developed to the people in the cowshed, and would visit the educated youth site from time to time. After being recommended by the educated youth who used her beauty and whitening medicine, educated youth from other villages would also come to visit her.
Every now and then I would go to my mother's house to spend a day.
So Xu Yu is very busy every day.
Because he was busy, he didn't have time to think about Jiang Yi during the day. But when it was late at night and he was lying in bed alone, Xu Yu often couldn't sleep because he missed Jiang Yi.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Xu Yu finally received the review materials sent to her by Dr. Hu.
Because she has to read, she spends less time going out.
Until the day when the village was going to hold a village meeting, she followed her parents and each of them carried a stool to the meeting place.
The meeting place was in the large drying yard below the educated youth site.
This kind of village meeting is nothing more than mobilizing everyone's enthusiasm, so the village cadres speak at the top and many people chat below.
As soon as Xu Yu sat down, several educated youth gathered around him.
Xu Yu was chatting and laughing with them casually, but when she turned her head inadvertently, she met the gaze of He Yaqin, who was sitting not far away holding her child and looking at her.
When Xu Yu looked over, He Yaqin suddenly looked away and lowered her head to coax the baby in her arms.
The baby, who was only a few months old, started crying, and He Yaqin didn't even hesitate to do so. She just unbuttoned her clothes and started feeding her.
Li Changgen, who was sitting next to her, saw it and quickly took off his coat and put it in front of her to cover her extra-large bun.
Even so, some men sitting next to her were embarrassed and turned their heads away, not daring to look in her direction.
At this time, He Yaqin suddenly looked up at Xu Yu again.
Her eyes seemed to say: Look, I gave birth to a son, but you don’t even have a child.
Xu Yu's face was filled with black lines.
Suddenly I understood that people really laugh when they are speechless.
That's what she is.
This woman always looks at her like this. Is she trying to feel superior by having a child with her?
She curled the corners of her lips and looked away, never looking over there again.
Not long after, the village chief, holding a loudspeaker, suddenly announced, "We've been selected as a key development demonstration town. A notice has been issued. Each village can now undertake several development projects, which will bring in extra income."
Upon hearing this, the chattering voices suddenly quieted down.
Then many people asked in surprise: "Village head, what project is our village going to carry out?"
"Will everyone be able to earn work points and money by then?"
"When?"
"Do I need to sign up? Then I'll sign up our family first."
"And our family."
"And our family."
……
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, the village chief shouted loudly: "Quiet, everyone, be quiet!"
After he roared several times, everyone's voices finally quieted down.
The village chief's voice was a little hoarse. He coughed several times, took a big sip of tea, and then continued with the loudspeaker: "If there are any projects, we'll have to wait for the higher-ups to hold a meeting to decide. For now, everyone just needs to know that this is happening."
"Also, to do a project, you definitely need people who are quick on their feet and quick on their minds. Don't take on a job you don't have the skills to do. When the time comes, those who should be doing farm work should just do it well."
"Finally, we're about to start raising rice seedlings in the greenhouse. As usual, we'll choose some people from our village to take turns watching over the fire."
We have been using a greenhouse to grow seedlings here since a few years ago. The greenhouse was built next to the educated youth site. Because it is not a greenhouse like the ones in later generations, in order to maintain the temperature of the greenhouse, we have to keep charcoal burning during the seedling cultivation period.
After the village meeting was over, Xu Yu and the others took the stools they had brought and walked back.
There were many people along the way, and everyone started chatting as they walked.
Someone asked Yang Wenhui, "I haven't seen your Jiang Yi for a long time. Is he going to the provincial capital again?"
"I went to the provincial capital."
As long as it is said that Jiang Yi went to the provincial capital again, everyone will think that he went to the provincial capital hospital for medical treatment.
Someone asked again: "Hasn't his injury healed yet?"
When this question came out, many people showed gossipy expressions.
Yang Wenhui simply said, "It's almost healed."
Some people still insisted: "If you were almost well, why did you go there again after such a short time?"
Xu Yu had been listening to Zhang Yafang, who had come closer. He looked up when he heard this. Seeing that it was Wang Pandi, he sneered and replied, "During the New Year holiday, two doctors in our family treated Brother Yi. He's now as strong as an ox. I don't think there's any man in the village in better health than him."
Wang Pandi originally wanted to ask if Jiang Yi was still in poor health, but Xu Yu suddenly said that, so she deliberately asked, "So, he is already well and can live for a long time?"
"Yes, longer than you."
These words made Wang Pandi's face turn black.
But everyone else walking with her was talking about her.
"Wang Pandi, why are you so bad at speaking?"
"Xu Yu, don't pay attention to Wang Pandi. She is such a straightforward person."
"Wang Pandi, you should think about how to get married if you are fine. No man will be interested in you if you keep talking so foul."
……
Hearing these words, Wang Pandi became so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick.
"What do you mean? It's none of your business whether I get married or not."
No matter how angry she gets, no one wants to pay any attention to her.
Wang Pandi saw that everyone was walking forward again and looking at her as if she was a fool, which made her so angry that she stood there and stomped her feet.
Just then, He Yaqin and the Li family came over together.
When Wang Pandi saw Li Tieniu, she quickly put away her aggressive expression, and walked over to him with a shy smile on her face. Afraid that he might hear what those people were saying, she hurriedly explained:
"Brother Tieniu, don't listen to those gossips. I'm not that kind of person at all. I usually don't like to argue with these people. It's just that they all bullied Yaqin, so I wanted to help her vent her anger."
He Yaqin's status in the Li family is obviously a bit high, and her brothers and sisters all love her. Especially since He Yaqin came back with red eyes several times, they thought she was bullied outside.
Li Tieniu was an honest and simple man. When he heard this, he quickly said, "Wang Pandi, thank you for helping my sister-in-law."
Wang Pandi immediately smiled shyly and said, "You're welcome. Yaqin and I have such a good relationship. It's only natural for me to help her vent her anger."
He Yaqin glanced at her at this time and didn't say anything.
