Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 393
He Yuejin held up the newspaper and pointed to the article: "Look at this, so inspiring."
He Yanqing snatched it over and carefully read through it: "Oh my, look, today I really got lucky. I finally see through the girlfriend my third brother has; she’s not someone with a good temper.
Luckily, I didn’t say anything offensive today, otherwise, I probably wouldn’t be able to get close to her in the future."
Cui Ziqiang chimed in with a smile, "Wife, you really had a clear head today."
As he said this, He Jiahui, the eldest daughter of the second family, He Jian Country, had somehow come over: "I said so, the aunt from the third uncle’s family didn’t give me any White Rabbit candies. It must be my mom who got on someone’s nerves this time."
After saying that, she started to cry.
He Yanqing, as the aunt, even if she were a bit thick-headed, this was still her own niece, and with all the family watching, she turned to her son: "Da Ming, give Jiahui one of your candies."
Cui Daming was a bit reluctant, but Cousin Jiahui kept staring at him. He held a piece of candy, extended his hand out, pulled it back several times, and finally handed the candy over.
He then held on tightly, and only after a while did He Jiahui manage to snatch the candy from her little cousin Cui Daming’s hand, impatiently unwrapping it and popping it into her mouth.
Seeing she wasn’t crying anymore, everyone in the room started chatting again.
He Yanqing read to the end of the newspaper: "So they found their biological dad?"
He Yuejin nodded: "That’s how it’s written there anyway."
He Yanqing patted her own head: "This future third sister-in-law is something else."
He Yuejin looked at his own sister: "Alright then, just say what you mean, don’t be so mysterious."
He Yanqing pointed to the newspaper: "Look, the family that adopted her had the last name Yu, but this newspaper says Han Xinyan. Could an ordinary person change their surname that quickly?"
It has to be said, He Yanqing was really quite clever.
While the discussion here was heating up, the couple from the second family had almost started fighting: "He Jian Country, is this all you’re capable of? Can’t take on outsiders, so you take it out on me."
He Jian Country was also feeling some regret now. He truly was a bit reckless, not only failing to achieve his goals but also offending both sides.
What worried him most was the fear of the deputy factory director retaliating against him, especially since yesterday’s incident was truly embarrassing.
But that’s how things are; what you fear is what will come.
When he went to work that afternoon, the workshop had already announced the person for the vacancy, and that person even went out of their way to thank him, though their words were filled with sarcasm.
What he didn’t expect was, that yesterday that person’s relative happened to be in the restaurant eating, witnessing the scene and then using it as leverage. He Jian Country was completely excluded from the picture.
The workshop director knew he had offended the deputy factory director; how could he possibly give him the team leader position unless he didn’t want his own job?
He Jian Country was so upset he couldn’t stand the provocation, and he directly punched the guy.
The other guy wasn’t one to take a loss either, and they got into a brawl, mainly because, accidentally, they broke a piece of machinery in the workshop, complicating the matter and escalating it to the factory headquarters.
As a result, after the deputy factory director learned about it, he fired one and demoted the other, a clear act of personal revenge using public office.
Both of them were dumbfounded.
He had just been promoted, hadn’t even gotten used to the new position, and was already demoted, which was unprecedented and almost led to him being a laughingstock. As the deputy factory director put it: "Do you think you can look at my family’s joke and use it to benefit yourself?"
The news of He Jian Country’s termination spread throughout the factory in no time.
By the evening, the He Family received the news, and Mr. He was so angry that he got a mouthful of blisters. When the drunken He Jian Country returned, Mr. He grabbed a broom from the yard and charged at him: "I’ll beat you, you bastard!"
He had been worried to death at home, yet confronted with a drunkard, saying it’s the time to drink?
Mother He stood by, heartbroken, but didn’t step in to intervene, as the trouble the second son had caused this time was too great, and he deserved the lesson.
