The educated youth was reborn and wanted to disappear, but he was locked into a military marriage.

Zhu Xiaomin had no way to ask whether what happened in Fang Qing's family was related to Luo Tingyuan, and she had no way of knowing who was arranged at her home. After thinking for a while, she asked, "Is Fang Qing still in the factory?"

Bai Guihua nodded: "Yes, I saw her in the morning. She was about to go to the workshop, but was stopped by Langya. She cursed for a long time."

"Chang Dalin doesn't care?" Zhu Xiaomin frowned.

Just said this yesterday.

Bai Guihua shook her head: "Chang Dalin was on duty yesterday. He didn't go back until he handed over his shift. I'm afraid he didn't take care of her at that time."

Chang Dalin was on duty, but Fang Qing stayed overnight in the factory?

Zhu Xiaomin seemed to have figured something out, so she stopped asking and turned to ask about Grandma Li.

Bai Guihua shook her head: "I only found out about it several days after it happened."

Zhu Xiaomin repeated what Grandma Xia said before saying, "I want to know, what does Second Aunt Qian have that made Grandma Li so excited?"

Bai Guihua thought about it and nodded: "I'll ask the widows in the Qian family." After saying that, she jumped up and left.

Zhu Xiaomin watched her go out, thought about Fang Qing for a while, and then thought about Grandma Li.

In the previous life, Widow Qian Zhuang only gave birth to two daughters. Aunt Qian Si was extremely dissatisfied, fearing that her son would have no descendants. However, Widow Qian Zhuang had many brothers on her natal side, so she did not dare to discourage her.

Later, when widow Qian Zhuang was returning to her parents' home, she died inexplicably on the way back. Not only could her parents find no fault with her, but they were also left with no reason. Aunt Qian went to their house crying and demanded half of the betrothal gift back.

As soon as Qian Zhuang's widow was buried, Aunt Qian Si tried her best to find a new wife for Qian Zhuang and pestered Miao Shiwen for a while.

Later, Qian Zhuang married a niece from Qian Ersaunt's family.

Later, when the great movement was over and there was no news of liquidation, Second Aunt Qian made a big fuss. The four brothers drew a clear line between themselves and by the time Qian Yuanfei was liquidated, the other three families were all cleared out.

By the time she returned to the city, Qian Zhuang's new wife had given birth to two sons.

But without Qian Yuanfei, the lives of several branches of the Qian family fell into a slump. Second Aunt Qian found someone else, saying that she was talking to that person, but in fact, she sold the two daughters left by widow Qian Zhuang to an unknown place.

At that time, they talked about it privately and felt that the death of Widow Qian Zhuang was influenced by Aunt Qian Er, but they could not find any evidence.

When Fourth Aunt Qian instructed Qian Zhuang to harass Miao Shiwen, Second Aunt Qian was secretly informing them. Although Miao Shiwen escaped Qian Zhuang's scheme, she also witnessed the cunning and treacherous nature of Second Aunt Qian.

In this life, she was reborn and deliberately avoided contact with that woman.

Unexpectedly, now that Grandma Li is in trouble, she is involved again.

And Grandma Li...

Zhu Xiaomin tried her best to recall.

In the previous life, it seemed like Grandma Li passed away around the same time, but no one knew if there was any other reason.

Could it be that it is also related to Second Aunt Qian?

Bai Guihua was gone for two hours before she came back. She shook her head and said, "They don't know either. I only heard from Widow Qian Gang that Aunt Qian Er is trying to find a wife for Qian Zhuzi."

After Qian Dashuan died, Qian Zhuzi was Aunt Qian's only son. He was already grown up, so it was only natural for him to find a wife. It sounded like there was no connection between the two.

Zhu Xiaomin frowned.

Bai Guihua said, "Widow Qian Dashuan is not here today. I will ask her when she comes back."

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "Remember to keep an eye on Fang Qing for me."

Bai Guihua smiled: "Don't worry, I've told the wolf cubs of the Jin family. They will notify me immediately if anything happens."

Zhu Xiaomin couldn't help but smile when she heard her call the young men from the Jin family like that.

After work in the afternoon, Zhu Xiaomin went to the cafeteria to eat like everyone else, but Li Wenzhe had reserved a table for her in advance.

Xie Chengzhi and Chen Xudong also came back, got their meals and sat down at a table, talking about the factory reconstruction project.

Chen Xudong said: "The partition wall is still a little bit behind. I will finish it after dinner. It will solidify after drying overnight, and we can install the door tomorrow."

Xie Chengzhi nodded: "The iron bars were just brought back from the county at noon. The three iron gates are less than halfway fixed now. We will rush tonight and try to install them all tomorrow."

Yang Junqing apologized: "You finally came back once, and you still have to help with the work."

Xie Chengzhi smiled at him: "We came back to help, you don't have to mind it."

Zhu Xiaomin smiled and said, "I'm sorry, their meals for the next few days will be charged to the factory account. Don't always eat my food."

She was appointed as the factory manager and received a salary and food allowance.

Yang Junqing smiled and nodded: "Of course, of course, you don't have to count it as the factory's, just count it as mine, these things are originally my job."

Chen Xudong gave him a thumbs up and said, "That's generous. I'll go get another bowl of meat." Then he took the rice bowl and left.

Several people couldn't help laughing.

At the table over there, Fang Qing had finished eating. She glanced over here, snorted, and left.

After dinner, Chen Xudong and Xie Chengzhi were still busy. Zhu Xiaomin asked Li Wenzhe to call a few women from Liushu Village over and ask them about Grandma Li.

Several women, including aunts and sisters-in-law, were married to Liushu Village for many years. They were very familiar with Zhu Xiaomin during those years. Now they were superiors and subordinates, feeling a little awkward. They looked at each other for a while before one of them said, "We are usually at the factory, so we only go back to take a look during our breaks. We didn't see what happened. We only know that Grandma Li and Second Aunt Qian rarely talk."

The other one nodded as well: "Second Aunt Qian usually visits every household, and I've never seen her go to Grandma Li's house, but I've never seen them get angry, let alone quarrel or fight."

They lived in the same village and almost became mother-in-law and daughter-in-law before, but they had no grudges against each other. When Grandma Li saw her, she would think of her son and couldn't help feeling sad, so it was understandable that she avoided her.

Zhu Xiaomin frowned slightly.

Just as she was thinking about it, another wife said, "It's strange. Second Aunt Qian has always been domineering. After Uncle Qian's case, she was quiet for a while. But since Qian Zhuzi took charge of the base last year, she has become arrogant again. She doesn't care about anyone, but she avoids Grandma Li."

It sounds like he's hiding something.

Zhu Xiaomin asked: "What about Qian Zhuzi? His mother relies on his power, and he also bullies others?"

The daughter-in-law shook her head: "Not really. I heard him persuade Second Aunt Qian that things are different now than they were in the past, and asked her to be more restrained. But Second Aunt Qian would never listen to him. Instead, she scolded him."

Zhu Xiaomin nodded, and seeing that it was getting dark, she asked the women to go back and went to find Huang Xiaojuan.

Huang Xiaojuan lived with her daughter Xu Xiaoyu in a separate dormitory. She was sitting at the table doing needlework at this time. When she saw her come in, she hurriedly greeted her.

Xu Xiaoyu was lying on the table doing homework, and when she saw her, she happily shouted, "Teacher Zhu."
