Chapter 197 Why are you making things difficult for me?
Squeeze back?
What kind of tiger-wolf talk is this?
You're an elderly person who prides yourself on being physically weak, who would dare to really hurt you?
If you don't get pushed back, but instead get extorted by the other party, that would be truly bad luck.
Ye Nuan and Song Huili had been quietly watching the dispute unfold. They had no intention of taking advantage of the situation, so they hadn't joined the queue. Who would have thought they would witness such a dramatic scene?
"Is that Zhou Guoqiang's mother? Didn't Zhou Guoqiang say that she was in poor health and couldn't stop taking her medication? But she walks with such vigor and speaks with such authority. She doesn't seem like someone who has been bedridden for a long time."
Song Huili's expression was extremely unpleasant.
She never expected to meet her boyfriend's mother under these circumstances.
Song Huili recognized Zhou's mother because Zhou's mother had gone to the pharmaceutical factory to look for Zhou Guoqiang.
Ye Nuan recognized him simply because she had asked around about him before.
Now, only the two of them recognized Zhou's mother, and Zhou's mother hadn't even noticed Song Huili's presence yet.
Zhou's mother knew Song Huili; Zhou Guoqiang had introduced her to her once from afar, but he hadn't introduced them. This was mainly because the two hadn't officially started dating yet, and Zhou Guoqiang was afraid Song Huili wouldn't agree.
Now, Zhou Guoqiang probably doesn't need to worry about it anymore.
Such a mother of Zhou's is truly someone one would avoid at all costs.
To be honest, Zhou's mother's behavior just now really shattered Song Huili's worldview.
She never imagined that the sickly mother Zhou Guoqiang described, who needed to take medicine all year round, could be so fierce and so unreasonable.
Cutting in line is one thing, but you're in the wrong to begin with. What good will it do you to say a few nice words?
They even dared to act arrogantly because of their age and speak ill of others; that's terrifying.
Song Huili was originally someone who didn't argue with people and always paid great attention to her personal manners. Just thinking about having to face such an unreasonable old lady made Song Huili feel dizzy.
too frightening.
Ye Nuan didn't need to say anything more; Song Huili already knew everything.
On the way back, Ye Nuan didn't try to persuade Song Huili, nor did she take advantage of Zhou's mother's unreasonable behavior to argue. Everything was left unsaid.
That evening, Ye Nuan told Gu Hanchuan what had happened, and he was overjoyed.
"We really owe you a lot this time. But how did you know Zhou Guoqiang's mother would try to take advantage of the situation?"
"Is that even a question? The Zhou family isn't well-off, so Zhou's mother would definitely go if there was such a good opportunity. I just didn't expect her to do something like this. You didn't see how chaotic it was at the scene. Later, all the comrades from the supply and marketing cooperative came out to maintain order. In the end, Zhou's mother didn't get any benefits, and she didn't get to buy the two things she wanted the most."
Gu Hanchuan nodded: "In theory, she's not that old. If she were seventy or eighty, people might not be unwilling to give way to her. In the end, it's just that Zhou's mother is being too presumptuous."
Ye Nuan deeply agreed: "If you ask me, she must have used this method many times before, and I wonder how many people she has tricked with this method before, otherwise, how could she do it so naturally?"
The young couple believed that as long as Song Huili could clearly recognize the kind of family she was dealing with, she would definitely not have any more contact with Zhou Guoqiang.
At the very least, she can no longer be a potential partner.
As expected, Song Huili expressed a desire for both Zhou Guoqiang and Song Huili to calm down.
Zhou Guoqiang was extremely anxious.
He's not young anymore, and he finally found someone who makes his heart flutter. How can he just end the relationship like that?
The key is that Song Huili is good-looking and comes from a good family. Countless men at the pharmaceutical factory are eyeing her.
It was also because of work that Zhou Guoqiang had more contact with Song Huili; otherwise, how could it have been his turn?
Song Huili didn't hide anything and directly said in the office that her relationship with Zhou Guoqiang had broken up, so that people would stop joking about her and Zhou Guoqiang in the future.
Even the section chief was a little curious.
"You two haven't been dating for very long, have you? Why did you break up? Was it because you couldn't agree on the betrothal gifts, or were you dissatisfied with the dowry?"
Song Huili shook her head: "No, that's not it. We haven't met each other's parents. It's just that the two of us aren't a good match."
The section chief was a man, but the deputy section chief was a middle-aged woman.
The deputy section chief usually likes to worry about the unmarried men and women in the unit. Now that she heard that they broke up, she was both anxious and wanted to know the truth.
"What exactly happened? Huili, I think Guoqiang is an honest man, not bad. Is it because his family isn't well-off that your family disagrees?"
Song Huili shook her head: "No. It's just that I feel the two of us are not suitable."
"What's wrong with that? You all work in the same factory, can't you just say what you mean?"
The deputy section chief was also a worrier, always determined to get to the bottom of things.
Song Huili is young and easily embarrassed, so she can't say anything too harsh and doesn't want everyone to criticize Zhou Guoqiang's family, so she just speaks vaguely.
"Nothing is right for us. Our personalities don't match, and our lifestyles don't match. Please stop joking about us. I'm single again now, so I need some time to cool off before I look for someone."
The deputy section chief had a feeling something was wrong, but since Song Huili wouldn't say anything, there was nothing she could do. Then, she had a sudden thought and went to find Zhou Guoqiang.
Zhou Guoqiang was an honest man, so he was guileless and finished explaining the matter to the deputy section chief in just a few words.
Upon hearing this, the deputy section chief realized that the problem stemmed from Song Huili's brother and sister-in-law.
"If you ask me, it's probably his brother and sister-in-law who disagree. Didn't you say his family is well-off? I think they're just materialistic and look down on your family's circumstances. Xiao Zhou, don't be discouraged, I'll introduce you to someone better later!"
The deputy section chief, believing he had grasped the whole truth, began to dislike Song Huili.
Song Huili is unwilling to say much, but that doesn't mean she's stupid.
Especially when the deputy section chief pointed at her draft and made nonsensical remarks, Song Huili could no longer tolerate it.
"If you don't think it's good enough, then I'll rewrite it. You don't need to be so disparaging. I've been working at this factory for a while now, and I actually want to ask you, what did I do to offend you?"
The deputy section chief was taken aback; she hadn't expected Song Huili, this hothead, to ask so directly.
We're all in the same office. Everyone can see what the deputy section chief has been up to these past few days regarding Song Huili. The section chief is a man, so he can't speak too much in favor of Song Huili, but the other colleagues don't tolerate the deputy section chief's behavior.
"Yes, I think there's nothing wrong with the draft that Comrade Xiao Song wrote. The deputy section chief has high standards, which shows that you are highly educated. In that case, why don't you write it yourself? Why make things difficult for us?"
