Courtyard House: My Wife is Xu Huizhen

Page 548

Xiao Hong's father nodded and said, "Director He, don't worry. Although I am illiterate, I am a man of my word. I will not go back on my word. This Comrade Da Zhuang has nothing to do with my Xiao Hong. There was nothing before, and there will be nothing in the future."

When he heard his daughter say today that she was seeing a married man at the factory, he felt like his world had collapsed.

This is an unmarried daughter; how could she do such a scandalous thing!

In the past, if this had been discovered by others, it would have been a crime punishable by drowning in a pig cage.

Even if things weren't this extreme now, this incident still made their family lose face in front of all their fellow villagers.

Because of the gossip and whispers behind her back, Xiao Hong can't get married unless she finds an older man who can't find a wife even if he lives dozens of miles away.

He Yuzhu also said, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on Dazhuang and find him a more relaxed position for Xiaohong in a couple of days."

Once this is over, Da Zhuang definitely can't work in the same workshop as Xiao Hong anymore, so he'll find Xiao Hong a different job.

As for the precision manufacturing workshop, He Yuzhu has other plans.

Whether it's compensation or subsequent work and food, it's all about stabilizing them and preventing them from causing trouble.

After the deal was settled, He Yuzhu didn't stay long. When he came out of the courtyard, Xiao Hong didn't come to see him off.

Her father left her inside, and when she returned, he said to her fiercely:

"If you ever have any contact with someone surnamed Zhuang again, I'll break your legs."

"Dad~"

His father retorted angrily, "Don't call me father. I don't have a daughter as immoral as you."

He Yuzhu drove the car out of the brigade before saying, "Dazhuang, this is the end of it. If you have any contact with Xiaohong again, I'll break your legs."

Da Zhuang opened his mouth as if to say something, but Tong Zhi kicked him.

“If it weren’t for my brother-in-law’s intervention, how would you have managed to appease them? If they sue you, you’d be in deep trouble.”

Da Zhuang said somewhat aggrievedly, "I didn't say I wouldn't listen."

Then he apologized to He Yuzhu and made amends.

When they returned to Tongzhi's home, Meimei and Sister Zhuang both ran out to greet them.

Tong Zhixian said, "Xiao Hong is fine now."

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief and then invited the three of them into the house.

Tong Zhi recounted what had happened, and Sister Zhuang started crying again in anger.

Sister-in-law Zhuang was rather ugly and overweight, so she had no status at home before.

Especially after Da Zhuang became the workshop director, earning nearly 100 yuan a month, it was known for a long time that Da Zhuang had a woman outside, but there was no evidence.

Given Zhuang's dominant position in the family, Zhuang's wife dared not say a word.

Today, He Yuzhu was here, and Sister Zhuang cried and said many things.

Tong Zhi couldn't help but kick him twice more, and Da Zhuang didn't even get to eat.

Meimei asked the crucial question: "Xiaohong's situation is resolved, but what about Xing Decheng's?"

"Yes, what about Xing Decheng?" Tong Zhi asked.

He Yuzhu said, "This matter is not easy to handle, but if we can keep Xiao Hong in check, the other party will not have many bargaining chips."

After all, it's useless for them to just talk about affairs between men and women.

To catch a thief red-handed, one must catch them in the act of adultery.

This is also why the other party prepared a camera to take pictures.

It's a pity that the opponent made a wrong move and was beaten up by the big boss, who also stole the camera.

In this way, the other party will have no evidence.

Aunt Zhuang asked, "What can they do if they have no evidence?"

"Although there is no evidence, this matter is still troublesome. The other party is mostly interested in Da Zhuang's position as workshop director."

Anyone with even a slight understanding of a machinery factory can see that the precision machining workshop holds a pivotal position within the factory.

The most critical parts and core components are all produced in the precision manufacturing workshop.

Mastering the precision manufacturing workshop means mastering the production capacity of the machinery factory.

This is also the reason why Jiang Hanyang, after sending in a deputy director, went to great lengths to find the workshop director, Da Zhuang.

He Yuzhu said, "The other side will definitely make trouble tomorrow. Da Zhuang, you might as well quit being the workshop director."

"what!"

Chapter 383: Are they going to just hand over the machinery factory?

"Huh? What? You can still keep doing this?" Tong Zhi shouted.

Da Zhuang understood perfectly well that Xing Debiao was eyeing him because he wanted the director position.

He sighed and remained silent.

Losing the director position is acceptable. As long as I don't go to jail, I can still earn a high salary in another factory with my skills.

He Yuzhu said, "You don't need to stay in these factories anymore. I'll transfer you to a branch factory."

"Oh, to the branch factory?"

He Yuzhu said, "What, do you still want to stay at the main factory? From now on, Xiaohong will stay here while you go to the branch factory."

Upon hearing Xiao Hong's name, Da Zhuang immediately lost his temper and had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The next day, He Yuzhu went to work on time, and after only a few minutes of sitting down, Jiang Hui stood at the door and said:

"Director He, Director Shen called to say you need to attend a meeting."

He Yuzhu got up, took his teacup, and went to the conference room.

Inside the room, besides Director Shen, there was also Zhang Hongliang, the full-time deputy secretary, and Xing Decheng, the deputy director of the precision manufacturing workshop.

"Old He, come and sit down. I have some freshly acquired Longjing tea."

"Really? Then I'll have to give it a good try." He Yuzhu sat down and said with a smile.

Factory Director Shen's secretary took a teacup and went over to make tea, while He Yuzhu also greeted the other two people.

Holding a cup of freshly brewed tea, He Yuzhu didn't ask what the meeting was about, and just sat there.

Factory Director Shen coughed and said, "Director Xing, please tell me about what happened yesterday."

Xing Decheng then said, "Some of our comrades are morally corrupt; they're married, yet they're still embracing young girls..."

He Yuzhu interrupted, asking, "Don't talk nonsense. Do you have any evidence? Who are you talking about?"

"Director He, I'm talking about Director Zhuang, the head of the precision manufacturing workshop. He was hugging Zhang Hong, a female worker in the workshop, yesterday at noon. I saw it with my own eyes."

Xing Decheng then said, "I originally intended to take a picture with my camera, but Director Zhuang beat me up and took the camera away."

"Is that so?" He Yuzhu asked.

"Of course, why would I lie about something like this?"

Xing Decheng said, "Can we invite Director Zhuang over for a confrontation?"

"So you're saying you have no evidence?" Deputy Director Zhang Hongliang asked.

"There is no substantial evidence, but we can invite Director Zhuang over."

Xing Decheng's confident demeanor surprised He Yuzhu. Did he have some other evidence?

Or are there witnesses?

This situation seems to be different from what I had previously thought.

"So, you have evidence?"

Xing Decheng said, "There is some evidence. He thought that everything would be fine just because the camera was stolen, but that's impossible."

Secretary Zhang said somewhat helplessly, "Since you have evidence, then show it to us."

Xing Decheng got up and went out, then called two employees over and said, "Both of them saw it. Director Zhuang was hugging Xiao Hong in the workshop. They reported the situation to me. I was thinking of getting a camera yesterday to get some substantial evidence."

Xing Decheng was at his wit's end. He had originally ordered the two men to keep an eye on Dazhuang and confirm that Dazhuang and Xiaohong were having an affair.

Then he took the camera to take pictures secretly, but he didn't expect Da Zhuang to be so vigilant and instead snatched the camera from his hand.

This has resulted in only two witnesses at present, with no physical evidence.

But he also knew that he had alerted the enemy yesterday, and he would never have another chance to seize this opportunity again.

Today, we were able to find Director Shen without any substantial evidence, and that's how we convened this meeting.

Both were workers in the precision manufacturing workshop. After receiving permission, they told everything they knew.

It was not unexpected; the affair between Da Zhuang and Xiao Hong was easily discovered by anyone with a discerning eye.

Both of them can testify that Da Zhuang and Xiao Hong were having an affair.

Xing Decheng was quite pleased with himself. He glanced at He Yuzhu and asked with a smile:

"Deputy Factory Director He, do you have any further questions?"
