My Beloved Super Fierce Wife
Chapter 628, what the hell, your logic.

Chapter 628: 628, what the hell, your logic.

Over there, Lin Tang and her group arrived at the Brigade Department.

Without any nonsense, Lin Fu looked at the Zhong couple and got straight to the point, "What’s your purpose?"

The Zhong couple: "..."

Exactly like country folks, just incapable of speaking properly.

The corner of Zhong Chang’s father’s mouth twitched; he didn’t even know what to say.

What else could they be here for, if not to settle accounts and demand compensation?

But can one really say such things outright?

"My wife and I wanted to inquire about Changchang’s situation..."

Lin Fu didn’t understand and bluntly said, "You should have gone to Jianming Brigade to find out about that."

The smile that Zhong Chang’s father had forced onto his face stiffened.

Just damn it, who didn’t know that?

But with Jianming Brigade being so poor they were practically eating dirt, what use was there in going to them?

The middle-aged man bowed his head, wiped his eyes, and suppressed his grief, "It’s just that... the last place Changchang came to was here, so her mom and I had to come and see for ourselves."

See what exactly, with that kind of logic?

Lin Fu was simply speechless.

"Well, you can look around all you want, we’ve got things to do at the brigade, so we won’t accompany you," he said.

With that, he called to the other brigade officials, planning to leave temporarily.

"Wait!" Zhong Chang’s mother suddenly stood up and blocked everyone’s way.

Lin Tang and Gu Yingzhou, who had not entered, stood outside the window looking in.

A crowd of nosy little kids was following the two of them.

Seeing that the woman had started speaking, Lin Tang nudged her fiancé’s arm and whispered, "Do you believe the real drama is about to start?"

Gu Yingzhou nodded, "Hmm."

He could guess the purpose too.

He leaned lazily against the window sill, his features cold and clear, exuding a boss’s calm and composure.

Very attractive.

Lin Tang was so engrossed in the spectacle that she didn’t notice at all.

The conversation inside the room continued.

After Zhong Chang’s mother stopped Lin Fu and the others, she said confidently: "Since my daughter met with misfortune after leaving your brigade, don’t you think you should show some gesture?"

Huh?

As soon as she spoke, the couple’s true intentions were completely exposed.

Everyone then fully realized their purpose in coming to the village, and the looks on their faces weren’t very pleasant.

Lin Fu couldn’t help but laugh out of irritation, "What kind of gesture would you like?"

He wanted to see just how shameless the couple could be.

Zhong Chang’s mother’s eyes flickered as she said, "I heard you’ve opened a Sauce Factory here, and I want you to hire my goddaughter..."

"Ha..." Li Jiancai couldn’t hold back his laughter, glancing at Qian Dilai, "Your goddaughter wouldn’t happen to be this Qian educated youth, would she?"

The woman was very displeased with Li Jiancai’s sneer, but considering the practical issues, she temporarily suppressed her anger.

"That’s right! What’s the problem, your brigade can’t even handle this kind of issue, can it?"

Li Jiancai quickly shook his head, "No, no, no, our brigade has no curiosity about your family’s affairs."

If it weren’t for this couple coming over, they would’ve forgotten about that Zhong educated youth long ago.

Lin Fu, now aware of these people’s purpose, immediately lost the desire to sit any longer.

He stood up and said expressionlessly: "The Sauce Factory is not short of workers, and we can’t even arrange jobs for all of our brigade members, let alone educated youths from other brigades. You, comrade, are thinking too much."

"Furthermore, you probably don’t know this, but this Qian educated youth was originally supposed to be assigned to our brigade. It’s just that she looked down on our brigade and voluntarily applied to go to Jianming Brigade... The matter is already settled. Want to change it now? It’s no use asking me, and it’s no use asking anyone else. We refuse!"

After saying this, with a face that warned strangers to stay away, he left the Brigade Department office.

Li Jiancai and several other brigade officials followed the Captain’s lead.

Seeing that the Captain had been angered to the point of turning away his face, they rose gracefully and left without a word.

Zhong Chang’s parents and Qian Dilai were left inside, exchanging looks.

Lin Tang hadn’t expected her uncle to give them the cold shoulder; she thought there might be a few rounds of arguing.

Seeing that the show was over, she took Gu Yingzhou home.

"No drama left to watch, let’s go."

The antagonist looking for trouble was too weak; they were dealt with in just one encounter—tragic, so tragic!

Gu Yingzhou somehow discerned the little girl’s excitement for the commotion and couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears in his gaze.

"Naughty girl," he said, pinching Lin Tang’s nose lightly, his voice soft and melodic.

How could such a proper young lady be so keen on joining the bustle?

Feigning confusion, Lin Tang asked, "What’s wrong?"

What else could Gu Yingzhou say? He could only respond, "Nothing, let’s go home."

Without waiting for her to speak again, he took her hand and led her home.

The people from Shuangshan Brigade left swiftly, emptying the Brigade Department within minutes. Even the kids who loved the excitement had dispersed.

The Zhong couple stood there, stupefied.

"...What do we do now?" Zhong Chang’s mother said. "They are not yielding, what else can we do..."

She had shouted and submitted, but these people had hearts of stone. What more could they do?

They had thought they were dealing with a bunch of dumb, manageable donkeys, but they turned out to be tough nuts to crack.

The middle-aged man lowered his head, a dark shadow flitting across his eyes.

He snorted coldly.

"Go file a report," he said.

With Zhong Chang gone, he and his wife would be seen as the poor parents who lost their daughter. Playing the sympathy card and making a fuss might just fulfill their wishes.

Thinking about the money he had spent on his daughter caused the man a pang of agony.

He initially planned to marry Zhong Chang off to a family with good finances, get a nice dowry, and have her support the family. He never expected her to fail so miserably, screwing herself over so soon after arriving in the countryside.

All the money he had spent arranging for someone to get her back to the city was wasted.

If he had known Zhong Chang wouldn’t live long, why bother pulling strings and giving gifts?

Now, everything was lost, as if chickens had flown and eggs had shattered.

A loss-maker indeed proved to be a loss-maker!

Poor Zhong Chang died without knowing her parents’ true feelings.

She thought her parents truly loved and cared for her.

Zhong Chang’s mother was somewhat bewildered upon hearing her husband’s words.

A woman with little education, she wasn’t particularly sharp-witted.

If it weren’t for her mother and grandmother’s reputation for being fertile, she wouldn’t have managed to marry into the Zhong family.

Still, Zhong Chang’s mother could be considered a spokeswoman for traditional wifely obedience, always putting her husband first.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you," she agreed.

The man glanced at her with disdain.

"Let’s go, back to the Guest House for now. We need to think this through for the long term."

Standing up, he led the way out.

His wife hurriedly followed behind.

Qian Dilai, seeing the couple leave her behind and considering how she had brought them to stir up trouble in the Shuangshan Brigade, panicked and hastily followed like a dog being chased.

Just as she stepped outside.

Slap—

She got hit in the face with a few sheep dung pellets.

Stopping in her tracks, she turned angrily toward the direction from which the projectiles had come.

She saw several village kids holding slingshots aimed at her.

"Are you guys crazy?!" Qian Dilai yelled furiously.

Tiedan made a face and teased, "No, no, no."

"You’re the crazy one, your whole family is crazy, you smelly witch. Don’t even think about taking advantage of our brigade, or you’ll regret it."

This kid was Lin Fu’s eldest grandson.

Usually appearing a bit slow, but daring and bold in crucial moments.

Just a young boy with a tiny slingshot, standing straight and tall, flanked by several little tykes, all puffing themselves up like a small general.

Qian Dilai was so angry her face turned red.

"Who took advantage of your brigade?!"

Zhong Chang’s parents had asked her to guide them; what could she do?

Deliberately ignoring... the fact that she had purposefully brought up the Sauce Factory and Zhong Chang’s leaving Shuangshan as the starting point of her troubles, along with those inflammatory remarks.
