Seventy cannon fodder is a ruthless man

Chapter 19
Meng Tao showed gifts and a small note: "I know what an arranged marriage is, but Tian Zhigao and I are not arranged. These gifts of love can prove that we are in free love."

She paused for a while, and was struck by her own words, but now she had to say this: "Tian Zhigao took the initiative to pursue me, and every week he would come back to see me from a far-away infrastructure construction site and bring me these gifts, although they are not valuable, but He used his heart, I felt very precious, I was moved by him and accepted his sincere confession, my grandfather asked a matchmaker to come to his house to propose marriage, and after his parents agreed, we had a wedding banquet!"

He picked up the two certificates on the table and the marriage certificate signed by the parents of both parties, and held it up: "All leaders have seen this just now, and it is stamped with the official seal of our Linshui brigade. Our wedding banquet was lively and lively, and we invited the whole village, as well as relatives and friends from the neighboring four villages and Bazhai to witness the wedding. After marriage, Tian Zhigao went to work in the city, and my mother-in-law asked me to move to Tian's house. , I worked diligently in the Tian family, and I respected my parents-in-law and took care of my younger brother and sister, and relieved him of his worries... Our captain told me: The law of the country protects my marriage, even if I go to the capital, the reason is also on my side!"

After speaking, Meng Tao played her upper body again, looked at Tian Zhigao with red eyes, and choked: "I'm a rural woman, and I don't have a high culture. It doesn't matter if you look down on me, but you shouldn't deceive an old guerrilla who has beaten devils. My grandfather is in the sky, and it will be sad to see me being left alone and abandoned!"

Tian Zhigao's face was gray and defeated, and the others present, except Xian Fangfang and Jiang Yushan, all became solemn.

A deputy factory manager asked: "Comrade Meng Taohua, your grandfather is an old guerrilla who fought devils? Do you have proof?"

Without saying a word, Meng Tao took out from her schoolbag the household registration pages of her grandfather and grandson that the brigade asked her to hold, and the small hard-covered notebook that Meng Shengli received state subsidies during his lifetime, put them on the table and pushed them in front of the leaders: "These are not enough. If you prove it, you can call or send a telegram to our county, commune, and brigade to investigate. If it is false, I am a fraudster, and I am willing to bear the consequences and go to jail!"

After several factory leaders circulated it, their faces became more serious.

Next, the wind direction in the conference room changed, and all fell to Meng Tao's side. Tian Zhigao lowered his head deeply, Xian Fangfang's eyes were red, Jiang Yushan wanted to say something, but the deputy director Yuan stopped him with his eyes.

Qianjin Steel is very serious, but it still has to follow the procedures. Further investigation and confirmation will be required before a formal decision will be made. Meng Tao is asked to wait for two days, while Tian Zhigao has just been promoted to a new position that is only a few days away, and was called to stop. , the original position has been taken up, he can only call back to the workshop to do some chores first.

Because Tian Zhigao and Xian Fangfang had obtained certificates after all, Meng Tao could not live in their new house. The chairman of the labor union still arranged for Meng Tao to live in a guest house with high-standard accommodation, that is, the one that Shen Yu had opened for her. You can continue to live in the high-end single room until she doesn't want to live there. There is no need to go to the large cafeteria to queue up to buy food. Instead, you can eat in the small cafeteria behind the hostel, and three meals a day are provided for free.

Meng Tao thanked the leaders of the steel mill for their care, and finally got free from the ramble of the trade union chairman. When he walked out of the office building of the factory, he saw Meng Zhehan and Shen Yu standing at the entrance of the corridor, and Xian Fangfang was with them, talking to Shen. Yu cried, and from a distance, Xian Fangfang kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief. She was so pitiful and weak, she was almost leaning into Shen Yu's arms. Shen Yu looked down at her with a confused expression.

Meng Tao didn't want to meet them, to save embarrassment on both sides. Shen Yu and Xian Fangfang had a good relationship, and together with Meng Zhehan, they would definitely sympathize with Xian Fangfang, believing that Xian Fangfang was innocent and kept in the dark. To ask her to forgive the pair of scumbags and scumbags, Meng Tao couldn't do it.

She turned around and walked back down the corridor on the other side. It was almost noon. She didn't have breakfast, and her stomach was growling with hunger. Now that she had a place to eat, she should hurry to find something to eat.

The cadre canteen is really high-end. There are more than a dozen red oil wood round tables neatly placed in the hall, and there are several small compartments separated by a light green screen in the back. It is a box of this era, for leading cadres. Talking about work while eating.

It’s still half an hour before get off work, but the food is already fragrant in the cafeteria, and it’s almost ready. Meng Tao is the first customer to visit. The fat aunt who brought her broth noodles last night works here, and the two are separated from each other. The glass window nodded with a smile.

The fat aunt walked to the window and asked Meng Tao what would she like to eat?Meng Tao looked at several large aluminum pots brought out by the chef: braised pork, braised tofu with fish cubes, kung pao chicken... ah, the meat is so greedy, she wants to eat it!
As a result, the fat aunt really gave her a spoonful of everything, put it on a white porcelain plate, and then scooped a bowl of chive egg drop soup. The main food was two big steamed buns with soft white noodles that had just come out of the cage, three dishes and one soup, the standard Hospitality meal.

Meng Tao ate all the food, and the amount was a bit too much, mainly because the steamed buns were big enough, but they were really delicious, and they could still eat them.

Leftovers are not dare. In these days, materials are scarce, grain yields are not high, and many people still can’t eat enough. It is difficult to put more cooking oil in rural dishes. Eating meat is like Chinese New Year. It’s a shameful waste.

Meng Tao left the small cafeteria and took a walk along a quiet bamboo forest path to digest food. When she saw a small rocky mountain, there were stone steps winding up, and there was a pavilion on the top of the mountain. So she climbed up. .

At two o'clock in the afternoon, when Meng Tao returned to the guest house, the waiter told her that two groups of people had come to her: Tian Zhigao and Meng Zhehan.

Tian Zhigao asked the waiter to tell him that he would come again in the afternoon and asked Meng Tao to wait.

Meng Zhehan left a note, perhaps taking into account her low cultural literacy and not much literacy, and her writing is correct and concise: Peach Blossom, I will reply beforehand, please don't run around, don't be afraid, Brother Shen is still in this factory , he will take care of you, and I will come to see you with Zhang Guoqing the day after tomorrow.

Meng Tao pouted: Look at her?Still want to see the result?This man from 500 years ago is also a fun-loving guy.

Go back to the room and fasten the doors and windows, enter the space to watch the sea of ​​clouds, lie on the side of the stone platform and hope that the seeds in the stone crevices will sprout and grow quickly, and come out after playing for a while. Talking about a nonsense is a pointless waste of time, and it is even more annoying to see the scumbag, simply carry his schoolbag and leave, and go to the factory's family living quarters.

In the evening, Meng Tao came back after eating in the small cafeteria. Sure enough, she heard the waiter say that Tian Zhigao had come again and was very angry when she didn't see her.

Meng Tao said in her heart: It’s okay to be angry, it’s better to be mad at him.

She went back to her room and closed the door to take a shower, washed and dried her changed clothes, and then turned off the lights and went to bed to rest. Maybe she was tired from walking around during the day. She closed her eyes for a while and fell asleep. She was woken up by a knock on the door. Meng Tao thought it was Tian Zhigao. , The scumbag didn't pay attention, but he was still knocking on the door. In his irritability, he grabbed a slipper beside the bed and threw it hard at the door. With a bang, the world was quiet, and she continued to sleep in peace.

Outside the door, it was not Tian Zhigao, but Shen Yu.

Hearing that the door was smashed inside, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was only after seven o'clock, did he really fall asleep?Impatient to throw things after being woken up?
This outburst of temper is really... In short, after meeting this girl, looking at her various performances, it is not quite like what she described. She is not a master who can suffer from suffering and abuse in the Tian family.

Very interesting little village girl, Shen Yu slightly hooked her lips, turned and left.

　The second is coming.
