Chapter 702: I give it to whoever I want

Huang Juan sighed inwardly, walked over, and patted Duan Duan Jingmin on the shoulder: "Little Duan, don't worry. It's your first time on the job, so it's inevitable to have some discomfort. However, you should also take Director Hu's words to heart."

Duan Duan Jingmin quickly said: "Deputy Director Huang, I've remembered it all. I'm sorry, it was my fault today, causing trouble for everyone. I shouldn't have thrown a tantrum, and I promise it won't happen again."

After all, she was a new colleague, and no one would really hold a grudge against her.

Besides, the matter with Wang Great Ming's family was actually not easy to handle.

The silver bracelets and gold ring were given to his mother by Wang Great Ming, so they were essentially his mother's property.

Mother Wang had promised them to her eldest daughter-in-law, but then she went back on her word and didn't want to give them.

Mother Wang's mistake was that she shouldn't have done it sneakily; she should have sought Big Sister Zhu's consent.

But the problem now was that Big Sister Zhu definitely wouldn't agree; she had a son and a daughter, and in her heart, she wanted to save them for her own children.

Moreover, Big Sister Zhu had contributed money, and they were just carelessly given to a sister-in-law who had nothing to do with it.

This matter sounded quite infuriating.

Many elderly people liked to do this—taking from the older to subsidize the younger, or taking from the younger to subsidize the older.

If the elders in the family were unfair, the family would easily have all kinds of disputes.

Just as Deputy Director Huang was about to walk out of the main office, Duan Duan Jingmin remembered something and hurried to chase after her.

She stood in the corridor and, seemingly gathering great courage, said to Huang Juan: "Deputy Director Huang, I really want to know how Lu Lu Qiao would solve this matter?"

Would she help Big Sister Zhu get the silver bracelets and gold ring back, or would she help Mother Wang educate Big Sister Zhu, saying that the things belonged to the elder and the elder could give them to whoever she wanted, and as children, they had no right to interfere?

At this moment, Duan Duan Jingmin really had no other thoughts; she just really wanted to know.

Deputy Director Huang glanced at Duan Duan Jingmin.

She sighed inwardly but still said gently: "Little Duan, Lu Qiao is going to report to Beidu University tomorrow. Besides, she is no longer a cadre at the Xiang Yang Street Office. Even if you want to learn, it wouldn't be appropriate for us to ask her to come back to handle this."

Duan Duan Jingmin's face turned red, and she said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I was too presumptuous."

Deputy Director Huang didn't want to hear her apologize because she had heard it too many times today.

So Huang Juan waved her hand and said: "Go look at the work notes Lu Lu Qiao wrote. There are many insights and experiences there. If you read them carefully, you will find ideas and inspiration. Also, let Old Lu Qiao and Old Tong handle the matter of Big Sister Zhu's family, and you can just follow along when they handle it."

Duan Duan Jingmin nodded obediently.

The high spirits and fighting spirit from early this morning had vanished.

She rubbed her face. She was actually quite curious if there were similar disputes in Lu Lu Qiao's work notes.

If there were, could she handle it according to that?

Although she didn't want to learn from Lu Lu Qiao in her heart, she discovered that the work at the Street Office was not as easy as she had imagined.

Especially being a mediator.

But she had only gotten this job because her father had pulled strings, and her parents didn't actually support her coming here.

Grassroots work was not easy to do.

But it was too late to regret it now; it was impossible to ask for a transfer just after arriving, and there were no suitable places anyway.

Meanwhile, at the employee hospital.

Wang Great Ming frowned as he looked at his mother, who was sitting on the hospital bed, saying she was dizzy and nauseous.

"Are you really feeling unwell or faking it? Only your son is here now. Can you tell me the truth? My unit is very busy too."

Mother Wang glared, her hand on her forehead, not taking it down: "I am your mother. I'm feeling this unwell, and you still say such things. You're trying to anger me to death."

Wang Great Ming said: "You are also my younger brother's mother, and you like him anyway. Why don't you let him come take care of you?"

"You think I'm old and a burden to you, so you want to kick me out, right?"

"Can you stop being unreasonable? I'm just asking you, did you really give the gold ring and bracelets to Little Ming's wife?"

Wang Great Ming's younger brother was named Wang Xu Xiaoming.

Mother Wang's eyes flickered. She was also very angry inside.

Jin Man was such a big mouth. She had repeatedly warned her to keep them well and not tell anyone, especially not to let the eldest daughter-in-law or the eldest son know.

Anyway, the things were in her hands.

Come to think of it, they weren't that valuable.

She gave them away, so she gave them away. Who would have thought the eldest daughter-in-law would find out in two days?

"Those things were given to me by you in the first place. Once given to me, they are mine. I can give them to whoever I want. What's wrong with that?"

Wang Great Ming stood up, his brows tightly furrowed.

Actually, he didn't care about those two things.

Both he and his wife had salaries. Now the military factory had good benefits and year-end bonuses. To tell the truth, if they wanted these, it wasn't like they couldn't afford to buy them.

But his mother had sneakily given the bracelets and gold ring to his sister-in-law, and he really felt uncomfortable.

It wasn't like they were family heirlooms, but wouldn't it have been better to give them to his own daughter or son?

If Jin Man wanted them, she should have asked Wang Xu Xiaoming to buy them.

And these were things he had bought for his mother.

That Jin Man wasn't a good person either. Knowing the situation, she had the nerve to accept them.

If you accept them, fine, but keep your mouth shut and don't go around talking about it. Wouldn't the matter have just settled down slowly?

But Jin Man didn't. The next day, she ran to her parents' home to show off, saying how good her mother-in-law was to her, giving her the silver bracelets and gold ring that were originally for the eldest daughter-in-law.

This was the military factory family compound; most people knew each other and saw each other every day. Within a few hours, it reached his wife's ears.

With his wife's explosive temper, she got angry as soon as she heard it, took leave from work, called him, and went home to argue with his mother.

Wang Great Ming also had a headache.

He blamed his wife in his heart: for such a small matter, why did you have to go to the Street Office?

They say family scandals shouldn't be made public; couldn't they have solved it sneakily at home?

And his younger brother was a fool too. Since it was given to you sneakily, you should have kept it well and not let your wife go out and show off.

Isn't this challenging us?

"Mom, didn't we agree that these would be left for us? Why did you give them to Little Ming's wife? And you didn't tell me after giving them. If you really wanted to give them to them, you could have talked to me properly. Would I have disagreed?"

Mother Wang muttered: "Forget it. If I had said I was giving them to Jin Man, would you two have agreed?"

Wang Great Ming stopped talking.

If she had given these things to Jin Man, his wife definitely wouldn't have agreed.

"Now that it's turned into this, what do you say we do?" Wang Great Ming asked irritably.

"What do you mean what do we do? I've already given them. How do you expect me to ask Jin Man to give them back?

Tell your wife, it doesn't matter who she goes to.

Otherwise, you go find Lu Lu Qiao and ask that girl if the things I gave away should be taken back." ===== CHAPTER 703 =====
