With the spiritual spring space, rebirth in the red era
Chapter 363 Someone is eyeing brown sugar
The lights in the Gao family's bedroom had been turned off, and Gao Yunfei and his wife had fallen asleep after playing poker.
This is a statue of a god made of ceramics, with a hollow interior. Xue Ming stuffed Gao Yunfei's red envelope into the belly of the statue, and then placed the statue on the writing table.
Originally, Gao Yunfei's behavior was to give gifts through the back door. Although Xue Ming looked down on this behavior, he didn't hate it either.
If the younger brother had not fallen and sprained his ankle, he would have thrown the red envelope directly on the desk and pretended it never happened.
Now they can't take advantage of them. The red envelope quietly put into the statue is a trap. If Gao Yunfei doesn't step on the trap, he will be safe, otherwise he will be in bad luck.
I looked at my watch and it was already two o'clock in the morning. I left the space and rode my bicycle home. The moon in the sky has disappeared, and the electric light on the bicycle illuminates the way home.
When I got home at three o'clock in the morning, I opened the bedroom and heard my daughter-in-law's slightly nervous voice, "Is this you, husband?"
"It's me, why aren't you sleeping yet?" Xue Ming locked the door and turned on the light to see his wife sleeping in her clothes. Her eyes had turned red from sleepiness.
"I won't be able to sleep if you don't come home. Let's return the red envelope to them." Zhao Xue yawned and hugged her husband's waist.
"Give it back to them quietly. Go to bed early." Xue Ming took off his shoes and went to bed and hugged his wife to sleep.
The next morning, I was woken up by my eldest sister Xue Ling. Xue Qing could not get out of bed and walk. My mother was so distressed that she shed tears and was not in the mood to go to work.
Zhao Xue hurriedly comforted her, "The doctor said she will be fine after just a few days of rest. Mother-in-law, you and Xiaoling should go to work. My husband and I will take care of my brother at home."
Factories are basically on holiday as the New Year is approaching, but department stores are the busiest time, with many people buying New Year goods every day, so department stores are not allowed to ask for leave during this period.
"Xiaoqing, you must listen to your sister-in-law. How could you get hurt during the Chinese New Year?" Liu Yuee thought this was bad luck and immediately went back to the house to offer a stick of incense to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
After burning incense and going to work, Zhao Xue went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. After breakfast, she stayed at home to take care of her three children, while Xue Ming rode to her workplace to avoid harassment by the transporter.
As soon as I left, someone came to visit me. Ma Haijian from the Transportation Department II came over with a basket to give gifts, "Hello, brother and sister, isn't Director Xue at home?"
"I'm sorry, my wife went out to do some errands early in the morning. Please come back another day." Zhao Xue said with a smile on her face and her mother said in her heart that she had been annoyed by this group of people recently.
"Sister-in-law Xue, my mother brought me some specialties from my hometown yesterday. Director Xue is busy with everything to replenish his health." Ma Haijian's wife Wang Ming entered the house carrying a basket.
Zhao Xue ran to the door and stopped her, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, my wife won't let me accept any gifts from gays. Come back another day."
"It's not the New Year, let's pay New Year's greetings to Director Xue. These are not expensive things, just some local specialties." Wang Ming'er opened the towel to reveal the gift.
The basket was filled with half a basket of sesame seeds. On top of the sesame seeds was a stack of ten-dollar bills, which looked at least two hundred yuan thick. There were some cooking oil stamps next to them.
"Sister-in-law, don't be like this. I don't dare to accept random gifts. My wife will be angry." Zhao Xue refused to accept the gifts and would not let them in.
They take advantage of people's shortcomings and speak softly. They give gifts in order to be assigned to family homes, but accepting gifts and doing things is breaking the rules and disciplines.
The two women were arguing at the door. Xue Qing came to the yard on crutches and said, "You are causing my eldest brother to make a mistake. Leave my house quickly."
"What are you talking about, kid? Go back to the house." Zhao Xue suddenly became angry at Xue Qing. After all, the other party was her husband's subordinate, so it was inappropriate to speak like this.
Xue Ming didn't dare to argue with his sister-in-law and turned around to enter the room. The atmosphere became awkward because of him. Ma Haijian asked awkwardly, "Sister-in-law Xue, where did Director Xue go?"
"I don't know either. He never tells me about work." Zhao Xue will definitely not disclose her husband's whereabouts.
"We'll come back another day to pay New Year's greetings to Director Xue. Goodbye, brother and sister." Ma Haijian left the courtyard with his wife.
Ten minutes later, someone else came over to pay New Year's greetings with gifts. This time it was Huang Erjiang from the Transportation Department. He was Xue Ming's brother. Zhao Xue could only invite them into the house.
Xue Ming was not at home, so Huang Erjiang left first and left his wife behind to talk to Zhao Xue. He asked her to wait for Xue Ming to come back and ask to see if his name was on the room allocation list.
Zhao Xue was accompanying his wife to do household chores, but suddenly she felt very tired and thought that she couldn't survive this day, so she simply took her brothers and sisters back to her parents' house to escape.
In the Office of the Director of Transportation, Xue Ming locked the door and entered the space to continue cooking sugar. He was busy until three o'clock in the afternoon and made more than 1,000 kilograms of brown sugar cubes. Adding yesterday's quantity, the total was 3,000 kilograms of sugar.
The two large barrels of diesel have bottomed out, and the previously stored charcoal has also been used up. Work must be stopped if there is no fuel. There are still more than 20 tons of sugar cane in the granary.
However, he won't feel tired when working in the space. Xue Ming drank spiritual spring water to replenish his energy, and left the space to sit in the office and daze.
At this time, I heard a knock on the door, got up and opened the door to see Zhao Erlian and Chen Dongfeng standing outside the door.
Black market tycoon Chen Dongfeng weakly took out a wad of money from his pocket and said, "Brother Xue, can you please talk to Comrade Yanzu? I want to buy him candy bars worth 500 yuan."
"Where did you get so much money?" Zhao Erlian stood up in surprise, picked up the banknotes on the table and started counting.
There are not many people who can spend five hundred yuan these days. Chen Dongfeng is just a black market philistine. Of course, he cannot have such a rich family.
Xue Ming suspected that he was just a migrant worker and that a powerful boss behind the scenes came to him.
"Brother-in-law, no more, no less, exactly five hundred yuan." Zhao Erlian put the money in front of his brother-in-law.
"Brother Xue, please help me. No matter what happens in the future, I swear I will not turn you in." Chen Dongfeng was stared at by Xue Ming until his scalp numbed.
Zhao Er slapped Chen Dongfeng on the head, "What the hell are you talking about? The candy you sell is provided by Wu Yanzu, does it have anything to do with my brother-in-law?"
"Yes, yes, it has nothing to do with Brother Xue." Chen Dongfeng broke into a cold sweat instantly.
Xue Ming put the banknotes in front of him, and then put the pen and manuscript paper in front of him, "I will tell you Wu Yanzu's address. You write down the address and go talk to him."
"Thank you, Brother Xue, thank you!" Chen Dongfeng hurriedly opened the pen and recorded the address, then left with a lot of thanks.
It is unrealistic to only rely on retail sales of three thousand kilograms of candy. I just don’t know whether Chen Dongfeng is reliable or how powerful his boss behind the scenes is.
Zhao Erlian sent Chen Dongfei away and returned to the office, "Brother-in-law, Chen Dongfeng is a loyal man. If he is caught by the inspection team, he will remain tight-lipped."
"You help me keep an eye on him. If that time comes, I won't give him a chance to speak." Xue Ming said confidently.
