Reborn in 1970, the chief’s wife wants a divorce

Chapter 41: As disgusting as eating a fly

"Uncle Chen, do you know whose connections the three temporary workers in our supply and marketing cooperative came to six years ago?" Zhao Tianyu asked quietly.

"Wen Xiaoli at the non-staple food counter is related to our Director Wang, and the money in the warehouse and your Xiaohe are related to Mayor Hu. By the way, Mayor Hu was not the mayor at that time, but was our Taohua Town Hospital. Dean." Old Chen said after taking a puff of his cigarette.

Zhao Tianyu's expression changed.

Liang Xiaohe's job was really done for her by Hu Yong.

"You're lucky. Not long after you married Liang Xiaohe, Dean Hu became Mayor Hu. Otherwise, Director Wang wouldn't have gone against all opinions for this promotion, and he would have promoted you." Old Chen said. Raise your eyebrows and say.

"Uncle Chen, didn't Director Wang take a fancy to my ability and let me be the deputy director?" Zhao Tianyu's face looked a little ugly.

"Tianyu, please call me Uncle Chen. Uncle Chen will not treat you as an outsider. Let me tell you what's on my mind." Old Chen smiled and said, "You have strong work ability. Xiao Jiang and Xiao Jiang who were nominated together with you Lao Guan’s ability is not bad either. Without Mayor Hu’s relationship, Director Wang originally wanted to promote Lao Guan.”

Zhao Tianyu felt as sick as if he had eaten a fly.

It turns out that his promotion was still due to Hu Yong?

what is this?

My wife’s ex-boyfriend gave him a deputy director position to his “current husband”?

What an irony.

"Tianyu, don't think you are taking advantage of anyone. If you are not good enough, even if Director Wang wants to promote you, others will object. You have to be tough. You work hard. Director Wang will retire in two years. , I estimate that with your ability, you should be able to go up." Seeing Zhao Tianyu's bad expression, Old Chen hurriedly comforted him.

"Uncle Chen, I understand. Thank you for telling the truth! I hope you will keep this matter a secret for me." Zhao Tianyu took out an unopened pack of cigarettes from his pocket and placed it on Old Chen's desk.

"You kid, why are you doing this to me? Even if you don't give me cigarettes, would I, Old Chen, still have such a big mouth and gossip about you?" Old Chen scolded with a smile.

"That's not what I meant, Uncle Chen. I'm just grateful for your care over the years..." Zhao Tianyu hurriedly explained.

"Okay, okay, I'll take it." Lao Chen put the cigarettes on the table into the drawer.

Zhao Tianyu then turned around and left.

After Zhao Zhenzhu finished breakfast, she went into the workroom to make clothes.

Through Zhao Zhenzhu's unremitting efforts, one-third of the two piles of cloth piled high in Wu Meiyun's workshop had been reduced in two days.

Zhao Zhenzhen was eager to learn embroidery from Wu Meiyun. Apart from eating and sleeping, she spent the rest of the time working.

Wu Meiyun looked distressed.

If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have said that she had to finish making these fabrics and then teach Pearl how to embroider.

"Zhuzhu, don't do it. Today is market day. Take Yunyun for a walk on the street!" Wu Meiyun thought of an idea after watering a circle of flowers in the yard.

Every first, third and seventh day of the lunar calendar is the market day in Taohua Town.

Usually, except during commuting time, there are not many pedestrians in Taohua Town. On market day, the streets are crowded with people from surrounding villages who come to the town to attend the market.

There are many people in the market and there are many things for sale. And no tickets are required.

Wu Meiyun wanted Zhao Zhenzhen to take her daughter out for a walk and relax.

"Is it market day today?" Zhao Zhenzhen raised her head from the sewing machine and looked at Wu Meiyun with a cute look in her eyes.

Zhao Zhenzhu had almost forgotten that there was a market day in Taohua Town after not going to the market for many years.

"You are so stupid at work that you can even forget the market day." Wu Meiyun laughed and cursed.

Before Zhao Zhenzhu got married, her favorite thing to do was go to the market.

There are many snacks on the market day, and every time Zhao Zhenzhu goes out, she will eat until she is full before going home.

"Hehehehe... wasn't this canceled for a period of time a few years ago? I rarely come to the town to attend the market in the past few years, so I can't remember it clearly." Zhao Zhenzhu forced his respect.

During the years of the movement, the market day in Peach Blossom Town was canceled for a period of time.

Just after the movement, due to everyone's strong request, the market was reopened.

There is no way, there are many workers living in the town, and the family will not be able to eat enough just relying on the food supply.

In the years before the market was open, even if there were policies that prohibited trading, there would still be people who had the courage to secretly go to the surrounding countryside to "exchange" food. By adding some agricultural and sideline foods such as sweet potatoes and potatoes, the family can fill their stomachs.

Workers' units receive welfare benefits during every year and festival. Distribute labor gloves, work clothes, rain boots, soap, towels, etc. It is issued several times a year, and a two-income family cannot use it all.

Farmers want to buy these things, but they don’t have industrial tickets. Even if you want to buy it, you can't.

Everyone "exchanges" their extra things with each other, everyone gets what they need, and everyone is happy.

After the market opens, no one needs to sneak around anymore.

Farmers bring their own agricultural and sideline products such as grains, vegetables, eggs, or hand-woven broom baskets, and sell them to the market for money.

When you have money, go shopping at the market, which will make everyone feel comfortable and worry-free.

"You! After you get married, it's like selling yourself to that family. Your legs are growing on you. If you come to town to attend a fair, what else can your mother-in-law do to you? If you don't have enough money, just come home and get it. Yes. Your father and I have two children, you and your brother. The money we earn will be given to you sooner or later. Are you embarrassed if you use it?" Wu Meiyun scolded her while feeling distressed.

"Mom, I was confused at that time. I thought that I had grown up and had passed the age of being greedy. When I came to the market, I couldn't help but be greedy for fear of being laughed at. Also, the Zhou family ate from a big pot. I don’t need to buy the things sold at the market. With this free time, I might as well make some clothes at home!” Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile.

"Humph! I just know how to protect your husband's family." Wu Meiyun had a long face and became unhappy.

"Mom, I've figured it out now, so what if I'm older? You can still be greedy if you should. Mom, give me a dollar and I'll take Yunyun to eat delicious food on the street." Zhao Zhenzhu stood up hurriedly and hugged her Holding Wu Meiyun's arm and acting coquettishly.

Zhao Zhenzhen had money herself, so she deliberately asked Wu Meiyun for money.

As parents, sometimes we hope that our children can rely on them appropriately.

"I'll give you five yuan. Buy whatever you like. If you don't have enough money, come back and ask your mother for it." Wu Meiyun took out five yuan and stuffed it into Zhao Zhenzhu's hand, with a relaxed expression on her face.

Look at her pearls, she is such a considerate little cotton-padded jacket.

It only costs one dollar.

Unlike that bad son who always says six hundred when he opens his mouth.

"Thank you, Mom!" Zhao Zhenzhu took the money and waved to Zhou Yunyun.

"Okay, okay! Let's go eat something delicious." Zhou Yunyun clapped her hands happily.

A few minutes later, Zhao Zhenzhu took Zhou Yunyun's hand and came to the street.

The past few years have been good, and most farmers have a surplus of grain. As long as they work hard, they can't finish all the vegetables grown in their private plots.

Therefore, this year's market day in Peach Blossom Town was much more lively than in previous years.
