Chapter 932 Dried Fish with Rat Poison
Seeing that the two were speechless, Lin Limin softened her voice and said, "Mom, I'll ask you one more time, are you going or not? If you're not going, I'll give this spot to someone who needs it more."
The old lady hesitated, but she knew that this was a golden opportunity that would not come again.
I wonder how her daughter-in-law managed to get this opportunity?
We absolutely cannot let that idiot ruin it.
Life there is vibrant and colorful, with everything planned out from morning till night. Unlike here, sometimes Wang Cuizhi doesn't say a word to me all morning, and I'm so bored I could die.
And unlike before, I no longer push myself out for a walk, to look at the flowers and the scenery whenever the weather is nice.
She's getting increasingly impatient.
Without a second thought, the old lady said, "I agree, I'll go."
Then she asked Lin Limin anxiously, "How should we arrange things for Cuizhi?"
Lin Limin glanced at Wang Cuizhi, whose face was gloomy, and asked indifferently, "What do you mean?"
I'm not going to take care of the old lady anymore; I'll definitely be leaving this house.
When Lu Qiaoge went to the logistics department, she was stopped by Director Lin, who had a big smile on his face, and he told her what happened next.
Director Lin found a way to send the old lady to a nursing home. After Wang Cuizhi stayed in the old lady's room for a few days, she really couldn't stand it anymore.
She never cooked at home; all the meals were prepared by Director Lin, so she just ate what was provided.
Aside from knowing how to use a washing machine, she doesn't know how to do anything else.
She doesn't even know how to turn the gas stove on or off, and she's too afraid to use it.
Director Lin made Wang Cuizhi understand through her actions that the reason she was able to live in this house was because she wanted to take care of Director Lin's paralyzed mother-in-law.
After the old lady left the house, she had no reason to exist anymore.
However, Director Lin still arranged a job for her. As for her liking Lao Fan, Director Lin really couldn't do anything about it; it was a matter of personal choice.
Everything that needs to be done and said has been said and done, but people just won't listen. What can be done?
Director Lin's eyes were full of smiles, and her expression was no different from usual.
She didn't feel relieved after the family resolved the problem, nor did she feel that Wang Cuizhi's prime years had been wasted; she should feel remorse and guilt.
In modern terms, a woman like Director Lin would never engage in internal strife.
In Director Lin's view, all the choices Wang Cuizhi made along the way were ones she herself insisted on making.
That outcome is her own business and has nothing to do with anyone else.
It would be unfair to impose this on the old lady.
The old lady is actually just a paper tiger. If she gets serious, the old lady doesn't dare to interrupt or sway her opinion.
Every time the old lady earnestly tried to persuade Wang Cuizhi, she didn't dare to get involved.
So let's leave it at that.
Lu Qiaoge even thought that a girl like Dong Mingming, who was so prone to internal strife, could not be changed in a short time.
Sending her to the army was just giving her a glimmer of hope to survive.
For Dong Mingming, a child who doesn't like socializing, joining the army isn't a good idea either.
Unless you create a comfortable environment just for her.
But if she or Director Lin could keep Dong Mingming by their side, the child's personality would definitely be corrected.
After all, she and Director Lin have one thing in common: they never engage in internal strife!
While thinking, she wrote down what she needed to hand over. After the handover was complete, Lu Qiaoge had no further dealings with the logistics department.
Director Lin said warmly, "You can come and see me whenever you have time."
He then winked at her meaningfully.
Lu Qiaoge would definitely understand; there would be delicious food when she got there.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely come back to bother you again."
"I really enjoy it when you bother me," Director Lin laughed heartily.

In the afternoon, Hua Hua squatted on an earthen wall behind the courtyard, her beautiful cat eyes fixed on a person holding dried fish who seemed to be teasing her.
This is an unremarkable middle-aged man in his forties.
She's really ordinary; the kind of person you wouldn't remember looking at once you turned around in a crowd.
Originally, the sanitation work in the compound was under the jurisdiction of the subdistrict office, but the subdistrict office was unable to manage it all, so a separate sanitation department was established.
This person is a group leader, and he is often selected as a model worker or a model employee.
Because he was really dedicated and loved his job, he would carry a big broom with him every day and clean up wherever he went.
The compound of the State Administration of Foreign Trade is also the cleanest and tidiest among the compounds in the vicinity.
Hua Hua, who often wanders around, naturally recognized this person, since he liked to sweep and clean in the corners.
It was originally sunbathing on this small earthen wall.
There was a big tree not far away, where sparrows, swallows, and pigeons were all perched.
It wanted to go up, but the earthen wall felt warm and comfortable to bask in the sun, so it didn't move.
Because it was so secluded and no one came here, I felt safe and relaxed stretching out my body.
Unexpectedly, a man came along carrying a large broom. He went straight to her and took out some dried fish from his pocket.
He held out the dried fish while wearing gloves, a slight smile playing on his lips, but he didn't say a word.
Then Hua Hua instinctively took a sniff and knew that the dried fish had been poisoned with rat poison.
Modern rat poison is extremely toxic. If an ordinary cat couldn't smell it, it would be dead immediately after eating this dried fish.
Hua Hua didn't move. It really wanted to hear if the man was talking to himself. Otherwise, why would he give it a dried fish mixed with rat poison?
Then the man placed the dried fish on the earthen wall, took a few steps back, and stared intently at the tabby cat, as if he couldn't rest easy until he saw it eat it.
When Hua Hua tentatively used her paws to move the dried fish onto her paws, then grabbed the dried fish and jumped up to the tree, the man glanced at the tree, then shouldered his large broom and left, seemingly relieved.
And they walked very fast, disappearing from this secluded corner almost in the blink of an eye.
When Lu Qiaoge learned about this, she was in a meeting. She quickly told Huahua in her space not to touch the dried fish again.
This is probably not a coincidence.
Many people in the compound knew that the tabby cat belonged to her.
This person is either targeting her or her cat.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Qiaoge put the flower away. She also put the dried fish away along with the flower.
Lu Qiaoge's consciousness entered the space and, seeing that Hua Hua was alright, went to check on the dried fish.
Lu Qiaoge wasn't as good as Hua Hua and the others, but she could still smell that something was wrong.
