Chapter 1390: Chapter 1390: Receiving Someone’s Favor 4

The person managing these letters was named Lun Anguo, the eldest son of Lun Bing and husband of Jin Hongjun.

Recalling some things his father and wife had mentioned, and taking advantage of the fact that no second person had noticed, Lun Anguo decisively handed over the anonymous report letter to Cui Shaoyuan. Cui Shaoyuan and another staff member, after examining the letter, found its content to be a rehash of old issues about corruption and bribery pertaining to the Luo Family’s gift-giving practices. The two comrades destroyed the letter on the spot.

Really, it wasn’t as if Comrade Lu Jiang hadn’t been investigated before. The Luo Family’s gifts were given openly, a collective token of thanks from several families. Those who envied their more comfortable life resorted to this tactic without getting tired of it, huh?

It’s normal for those with a higher wage grade to live a slightly better life than the average person, isn’t it? Who wouldn’t want to improve their own life if they had the capacity?

Those with higher wages receive more Industrial Coupons each month. Those with lower wages often have to save for a year and a half, and then ask relatives and friends for help, to gather enough Industrial Coupons to buy the desired major industrial goods by presenting the coupons.

There is indeed a difference in living standards between those with third-grade wages and those with over a dozen grade wages.

Although he was a staff member of a government unit, Lun Anguo’s family certainly didn’t purchase high-priced grain from the black market a few times. What for, if not to allow their family to eat a little better?

Lun Anguo did this without any intention of making it known, but Cui Shaoyuan was different; he immediately got in touch with Lu Jiang.

Contacting by telephone was very convenient.

Mainly, Cui Shaoyuan wanted to inform Lu Jiang that someone had reported them again and that they should be more mindful of their influence in daily life.

Lu Jiang didn’t know who Lun Anguo was. After thanking Cui Shaoyuan, he went home to ask Feng Qingxue.

"Lun Anguo? I don’t know him!" Feng Qingxue said with a puzzled face, "But since he has helped us like this, we should keep it in mind and be grateful. Did you ask Comrade Cui about Comrade Lun Anguo’s family? Maybe we could get some clues."

"I asked. Comrade Lun Anguo’s father is Lun Bing, his wife, Jin Hongjun... wait, Jin Hongjun?" Lu Jiang hadn’t thought of it during the call with Cui Shaoyuan, but suddenly he remembered the woman he had met in the black market. It seemed she was the one his wife had met by chance on the train. To help her, he had disguised his voice and his wife hadn’t made a sound throughout, "Is it her?"

Feng Qingxue nodded, "It must be her. The name Jin Hongjun is quite uncommon. She’s Manchu, with her real family name being Aixinjueluo. Her ancestors were once a wealthy household, which had fallen on hard times. Otherwise, where do you think she got the goods for bartering?"

Lu Jiang understood, "Then we must give them a proper thank you."

"Indeed, we should thank them. They kept quiet, but we can’t act as if nothing has happened," Feng Qingxue thought for a moment, "We’ll find a way to return the goods that Big Sister Jin Hongjun bartered with us later. We can’t make it obvious, and we aren’t returning them now for fear she’ll just trade them away again. I know Lun Bing too; he’s an old comrade, a neighbor of Hong Zhanjun. Back then, Xibao would always affectionately call him Grandpa Lun. Dad knew him too. I had no idea that Big Sister Jin Hongjun was his daughter-in-law; she never mentioned it."

Once again, Feng Qingxue was struck by how small the world could be.

Lu Jiang nodded, "When we send something to Old Comrade Hong Zhanjun, we’ll send a share to Comrade Lun Bing as well."

Lun Anguo had helped them, and showing gratitude towards Lun Bing meant that Lun Anguo would know. He would understand the reason for the Luo Family’s sending these items, indicating they were aware of his actions.

Although one gives not expecting anything in return, the person who receives kindness remembers the favor and the giver feels comforted in their heart.
