Chapter 443: Plugged

Old Hu didn't say he agreed, but first stared and asked: "Is this being rich and imposing?"

Lu Qiao smiled: "It should be!"

It's good to have money to do things.

Since Old Hu agreed, Lu Qiao made a phone call and asked for support from the infrastructure team.

Because when construction started in the spring, the infrastructure had to be built, so preparations had already been made in advance, not to mention that Lu Qiao had already transferred the funds. Besides, the military-industrial factory itself had storage, so asking for some cement and sand was not a big deal.

The higher-ups also sent a few people to provide guidance.

Although there was no mobile phone contact now, conveying the spirit was also very fast.

In the afternoon, the personnel were organized, and there were actually more than a hundred people. Lu Qiao divided them into twenty small groups, with group leaders and members of the neighborhood committee serving as commanders.

Here, mention the neighborhood committee of the military-industrial factory now, which is an organization of the resident group type under the Neighborhood Office.

Now there is one group leader, and then two to three committee members, all elected by the residents.

The responsibilities and obligations assumed by the group leader and members are certainly different, but because it was the first year of distributing benefits, they couldn't treat one better than the other, making these group members feel resentful.

So after the two directors of the Neighborhood Office held a meeting, they combined them with the members under the health center and security office, and allocated them according to the content of their duties.

Just like group leader Aunt Wang, she really went through wind and rain, braved wind and snow, and executed the tasks issued by the Neighborhood Office without any discount. Sometimes the other few group members were lazy and didn't work, such as sweeping snow, cleaning, promoting policies, cleaning corridors, etc., Aunt Wang would do it alone.

You say that for someone like this, when distributing benefits, if he has to be the same as Aunt Wang, then Aunt Wang will also be unbalanced in her heart, and it is also unfair to Aunt Wang.

It had already been investigated in advance, that is, distribution according to work, so these group members really had no resentment and regretted being lazy and slippery, and had already sworn to work hard and receive more when distributing benefits next year.

So they all participated enthusiastically in such activities, investigating every household.

This was a good thing for every household.

Some also dealt with the drafty windows inside the house.

Some people's heating didn't work well, so it was repaired along the way.

The main goal was to let all residents spend a warm Spring Festival.

And in the process of investigation, they naturally went to Qu Caifeng's house.

Here, it must be mentioned that after Cheng Wen returned that night, before Lin Xiaomin could tell him about the crack in the wall, he secretly told Lin Xiaomin about the note that appeared and disappeared suddenly.

This gave Lin Xiaomin a start, but she was truly fortunate in her heart. Fortunately, there was that small note; otherwise, Cheng Wen would have been calculated.

If it were really active and voluntary, she would have nothing to say and would offer it with both hands.

But being calculated, how cowardly would that be?

So she pulled Cheng Wen to look at the crack and told Cheng Wen all the things Qu Caifeng had said to her one by one.

Cheng Wen's face turned red and white upon hearing this. He was living outside, but he couldn't stop that vicious woman from sowing discord.

Fortunately, his wife didn't believe it. If she had really believed it and made a scene, that Qu Caifeng would have turned around and said she had never said it.

Then the only ones who would lose face would be the two of them.

The wallpaper here was torn down.

Cheng Wen used the cement and sand he got himself to carefully plug the crack.

Mother Cheng also saw this scene and seemed to understand something. Her face didn't look good at the time, but she didn't say anything, although she hadn't given up, she didn't mention it anymore.

Cheng Wen also knew that he couldn't be angry with his mother at this juncture; otherwise, he would completely push his mother to Qu Caifeng's side.

He and his wife discussed that no matter what happened in the future, they must not let external forces destroy their family now.

In the evening, the two of them told Mother Cheng: Give them three more years. If it can be treated, then there is no need to say anything more. If it still can't be treated, then the two of them will divorce.

Parting ways, each happy.

And even three years later, they would only be twenty-nine.

At this time, Mother Cheng had to agree even if she didn't want to.

Otherwise, her son would hate her.

And the investigation group also found a crack in Qu Caifeng's house and reported it at the time, saying that the crack in her house was particularly large and felt like a safety hazard.

Because some places had been expanded by Qu Caifeng with a screwdriver.

Of course, except for Lu Qiao who knew the inside story, no one would think that this crack was specially expanded by Qu Caifeng by two times.

But such a large crack was quite scary.

The investigation group was also very guilty, and then looked at the upstairs and downstairs, finding that only the crack in Qu Caifeng's house was the largest.

It wasn't discovered because a painting was hung on it.

Actually, according to Lu Qiao's original intention, she wanted to find a suitable house to move Qu Caifeng away.

But to tell the truth, there really were no empty houses.

Including those now being rented out as bungalows, there were none.

She asked Old Hu for instructions and applied to the higher-ups for an infrastructure engineer to repair and reinforce this wall.

This was not a job that could be finished in one day.

Qu Caifeng, who seemed to be holding the winning ticket, finally became anxious and uneasy.

But she had no other way.

People were repairing things for you, working hard, and you still dared to have a gloomy face?

She could only force herself to thank the Neighborhood Office, thank the infrastructure section, and thank the workers who helped her do the work.

After all, working in the middle of winter, it was not easy to carry sand from downstairs to upstairs.

But fortunately, there were many people and great strength. Now people could endure hardship and work fast, and it was finished in two days.

When she went to Mother Cheng's house again, she found that the old lady didn't mention this matter anymore.

Qu Caifeng sneered in her heart: If you don't mention it, is it okay?

At this time, only Mother Cheng was at home.

Qu Caifeng said to Mother Cheng: "Auntie, you've been playing with me for so long, do you think it's interesting?"

The old lady's face changed: "What are you talking about? When did I play with you?"

In just a moment, tears appeared on Qu Caifeng's face, and she said in a choked voice: "I will go to the security department like this. I want to tell them that for these nearly three years, you pretended to be good to me, but actually you took a fancy to me being able to give birth to children and being a widow with no one to stand up for me, so you hoped to borrow my belly to pass on the family line for your old Cheng family."

She raised her hand, "Look, this is the deposit you gave me. Auntie, you say, if I say it like this, will the security department believe it?"

Mother Cheng, who heard this, had sweat on her forehead.

She looked at Qu Caifeng, who seemed very aggrieved and sad, in disbelief.

It took a long time for her to find her voice, and she said angrily: "How can you talk nonsense and confuse black and white? Didn't you propose it yourself?"

"How stupid and foolish would I be to propose this to you? And why would I propose this? No matchmaker, no betrothal, unclear, how could I do such an illegal and disciplinary thing?"

Mother Cheng's face was pale, and her chest heaved: "Then... what exactly do you want to do?"

"I don't want to do anything; I'm just talking to you casually."

After saying this, Qu Caifeng stood up, didn't say any extra words, and left the Cheng house slowly to return to her own house.

The old lady heard the movement of the door closing next door and slumped on the sofa.

What does this mean?

Is it easy to invite a god but hard to send one away? ===== CHAPTER 444 =====
