Transmigrating to Book 50, others hoard rice, I hoard money

Chapter 460 This "obstacle" must be removed

Qiao Dongjing has been helping to take care of Zhou Jifan since he was born.

Now that he is not around, Qiao Dongjing feels empty and has wanted to persuade Zhong Jiawen and Zhou Qingping to take the child back several times.

But when she thought of her in-laws who were alone and needed the company of children, she gave up the idea.

It was not until Zhong Jiawen found out she was pregnant again in April that Qiao Dongjing's energy was dispersed and she focused on taking care of her daughter...

Nini also became pregnant around this time.

Chen Zhan Ning was worried that Nini might get bumped into something, so he got some scraps of cloth and wrapped all the tables, chairs and benches in the house with them. He also fixed all the uneven spots in the yard, and even trimmed the potholes in the alley.

Some aunts and ladies teased him, saying that since Nini was pregnant, the whole Chang'an would benefit from it.

When Xu Man learned that Nini was pregnant, she brought her food every two or three days. If it weren't for Wang Chengnan at home, Xu Man would have wanted to live in Zhou Rong's house.

Xue Wanyi's legs and feet were not as nimble as before. She would be exhausted if she walked a little further. She had no choice but to sew children's clothes at home, preparing some for boys and some for girls, so that her great-grandchildren could wear them...

Nini likes sour food, and currently there are only a few fruits for sale in the market, such as cherries, mulberries, and loquats.

Zhou Rong bought some of the fruits he could find, and occasionally took out some apples and oranges from the space, saying that they were bought on the black market, and that the vendors had stockpiled them and sold them at a high price during the lean season.

Everyone was convinced by this reason and did not ask any further questions.

After Zhou Jifan and Zhou Rong lived together for a while, he found out that he had been deceived by the ten candies, and the amount of candies he ate every day had not increased at all!

But he still likes to live at his grandma's house because his grandma's house has all the food that her grandma doesn't have!

The fruits that Zhou Rong took out were not only loved by Nini, but also by Zhou Jifan.

With fruits, egg cakes, biscuits and other snacks, as well as milk to drink every day, Zhou Jifan lost interest in sweets.

He saved all the candies that Zhou Rong rewarded him with, intending to leave some for Zhou Xinxin. He gave the rest to Nini, saying that they were for his younger brother.

After hearing this, Nini smiled and said, "My brother is not born yet, so he doesn't eat candy. You can eat it yourself."

Zhou Jifan: "I am the older brother, so the delicious food should be saved for my younger brother. All these candies are for him, aunt, you save them for him, and he can eat them when he is born."

Nini: "When my little brother is born, this candy will go bad. If you don't want to eat it, we can drink it with water."

Five milk candies dissolved in hot water can become a cup of milk. Zhou Jifan took a sip and found it sweeter and tastier than milk powder.

Since then, he used all the candies Zhou Rong gave him as rewards to soak in water, and the candies he promised to leave for Zhou Xinxin also dissolved in the water...

In October 76, the bad group was crushed and the ten-year special period ended.

Afterwards, the organization cleaned up and examined a group of people who had worked for the bad guys.

In order to protect himself, Xiao Songbai praised the bad guy group and even wrote a letter to brag about the achievements of several leaders.

This letter was found when the bad guys' residence was sealed off.

This matter can be a big or small matter. When the bad group was in power, many people praised them more or less in order to maintain superficial harmony in order to protect themselves or to make things easier.

Kyoto called the provincial government just to make a routine inquiry. If Xiao Songbai had worked diligently during his tenure and had not done anything inappropriate, the matter would not be pursued for the time being.

Xiao Songbai was promoted to commander-in-chief of the garrison area two years ago. People related to him all benefited from it and their positions were more or less promoted. Even if they were not promoted, they were respected by others when they went out.

The leader who answered the phone was an enemy of Ruan Yujie's father. He had always wanted to bring down the Ruan family, but as long as Xiao Songbai was there, he dared not act rashly. This "roadblock" must be removed...

Xiao Songbai was soon taken away for isolation and investigation, and his relatives also became the focus of investigation, especially Xu Yuefang, Xiao Wenyan and Xiao Wenrui, who were detained in different places and asked to write confession reports.

Ruan Yujie and Qin Haiyan were so frightened that they hurried back to her parents' home to ask for help.

But their parents didn't know what went wrong with Xiao Songbai, so they didn't dare to act rashly. They could only cooperate with the investigation and then act according to circumstances...

When the comrades in charge of the investigation questioned Zhou Rong, she said she knew nothing about this matter and had no evidence to provide.

Zhou Rong had never made any mistakes at work, nor had any evidence left behind. After routine questioning, the investigating comrades did not look for her to provide evidence.

Zhou Rong felt that this matter was not simple and if it was not handled properly, everyone would be implicated.

Jiang Linhai retired last year. Zhou Rong believed that his connections were still there, so he went to the tax bureau to find Zhou Cai.

Zhou Cai was already the deputy director of the district tax bureau. She was also questioned. When Zhou Rong appeared, she quickly closed the door of her office and asked in a low voice, "Sister, someone came to me this morning and said that Commander Xiao was a member of a bad group and asked me to stand up and testify against him, but I fooled him.

I feel this is not normal. How come Commander Xiao is a member of a bad gang out of nowhere? Is someone trying to harm him on purpose?"

Zhou Rong: "I was also questioned. I asked the comrade who came to question me and he said there was solid evidence, but he refused to reveal what evidence it was. I think Commander Xiao must have left some evidence in someone else's hands and is taking this opportunity to make a big fuss.

When you go back, tell your father-in-law about this and see if he can use his connections to get the specific reason. This is probably an order from Kyoto, so it would be best if you can get some information from Kyoto."

Zhou Cai: "Okay! If you don't come to me, I'm going to go back and talk to my father-in-law about this. We've finally had a few years of peace, why are there some stinky rats coming out to annoy us again?"

Zhou Rong: "As long as there is profit, there will be no real peace in the world. Let's get things straight first."

Zhou Cai: “Yeah!”

When Jiang Linhai learned that Xiao Songbai was in trouble, he immediately called his old comrade-in-arms who was working in Kyoto, hoping that he could help him find out the situation.

The other party quickly told Jiang Linhai what he had found out.

After hearing this, Jiang Linhai asked Zhou Cai to find Zhou Rong and tell him what he had learned.

After listening to Zhou Cai's retelling, Zhou Rong took out a piece of paper and drew a mind map. She analyzed that the crux of the problem might be with the Ruan family and the Qin family. She then went to find the heads of the two families and asked them who their opponents were in the provincial government.

The two listed several opponents, and Zhou Rong, based on the principle of "fishing in troubled waters", asked them to release the other party's black material so that they would have no time to care about Xiao Songbai's affairs.

Afterwards, Zhou Rong proposed that the Ruan family, Qin family, Zhou family, and Jiang family jointly guarantee Xiao Songbai.

We are all related to each other, so even if you say that you have no vested interests, no one will believe you.

Once Xiao Songbai's guilt is confirmed, the careers of others will be affected, and it will be difficult for his descendants to achieve success in officialdom.

It is better to unite together, save Xiao Songbai, and let outsiders know that they are not easy to bully...
