"Maybe they just want to take this opportunity to force Sister Lan out. If Sister Lan wasn't pregnant, their making a fuss would be useless."

"Bah, what a black-hearted fellow." Chang Chunli worriedly grabbed Zhang Lan's hand and said, "Lanlan, no matter what the reason is, if they don't move out, then you move out. We can't joke about the baby in your belly."

"But I'm afraid that after we move out, those two girls will forcibly move into our room."

"Sister Lan, you can move out and live with Aunt Chang, and let your brother-in-law stay at home. If you all move out, when you go back, they'll have finally moved in, and I'm afraid they won't give up the house easily."

"What Nuannuan said is that since they have this plan, they want to occupy our house. I won't let them succeed."

"Okay." Chang Chunli said, "Since it's decided, go back and pack up your things and let Zhicheng live there by himself. See how they can continue to occupy your house. Let's go home quickly. We're still waiting to make dumplings."

"When I move out, I won't have to pay for my mother-in-law's food. That way, I won't let them get away with it."

"Ah."

After the three of them finished making dumplings, Zhang Hesheng also came back. Chang Chunli told him about Zhang Lan's situation, and he was also very angry.

"Let's see, if Zhicheng can do what you say, then let's do it."

After the meal, there were still some dumplings left. Without waiting for Xu Nuannuan to speak, Chang Chunli put the cooked dumplings into an insulated box and prepared for Xu Nuannuan to take away.

"You're home alone, so you can just take it and heat it up in the evening."

"Thank you, Aunt Chang." Xu Nuannuan took the lunch box, said goodbye to the Zhang family, went outside, and put the lunch box in the space.

In the afternoon, she had to go to the factory to deal with work, so she went straight to the machinery factory.

When I arrived at the office of the head of the Finance Department, besides the head, there was also a young girl and a middle-aged woman in the office.

She guessed that the young girl must be the section chief's niece.

When the section chief saw Xu Nuannuan, he introduced the mother and daughter next to him to her: "Nuannuan, this is my niece, Mo Wenli. You can call her Wenli."

Xu Nuannuan smiled and looked at Mo Wenli: "You are probably not as old as me, so I will call you Sister Wenli."

"Sure, Sister Nuannuan."

"This is Wenli's mother, and also my sister." The section chief added, pointing at the middle-aged woman.

"Hello, Auntie." Xu Nuannuan greeted Mo's mother.

"Hello, young comrade."

Xu Nuannuan smiled. The other person had a kind face, which made her feel a lot more relaxed.

The section chief said, "Since everyone is here, let's not waste time and hurry up to finalize the work."

"Okay, Chief."

Mo's mother took out a thick stack of banknotes from her purse, which looked like they were all Great Unity banknotes. She then took out another stack of tickets and handed them all to Xu Nuannuan.

"Comrade Xu, here are nine hundred yuan and some tickets. Please take a look."

Xu Nuannuan took the money and started counting it.

Even brothers should settle accounts clearly. No matter who you are dealing with, you should keep financial transactions clear to avoid confusion and trouble later.

After Xu Nuannuan counted them, there were ninety big unity notes in total, which was exactly nine hundred yuan.

The stack of tickets included ten kilograms of sugar tickets, twenty kilograms of non-staple food tickets, ten industrial coupons, ten feet of cloth tickets, five kilograms of meat tickets, and two hundred kilograms of coal tickets.

Mo's mother said, "Comrade Xu, I also want to get you more tickets, but we really don't have that many. Many of these are exchanged from relatives and friends.

"Auntie, I know no one has too many extra tickets, so these are already a lot."

The section chief stood up and said, "Since there's no problem with the money and the bills, Nuannuan, bring your ID. I'll take you and Wenli to the Human Resources Department to handle the job transfer procedures.

"Okay, Chief."

After all the formalities were completed, Xu Nuannuan's job officially became Mo Wenli's, and Mo Wenli would officially start work tomorrow.

Xu Nuannuan, Mo's mother, and Mo Wenli walked out of the machinery factory while chatting. They said their goodbyes outside the factory.

At this time, a woman wearing a mask walked over from the side of the road. Xu Nuannuan recognized her as Zhao Jiayue.

Zhao Jiayue was too anxious about the accounting position in the machinery factory and couldn't sit still at home. She wanted to come here to take a look. By the way, if she met Xu Nuannuan, she would confirm the job with her to avoid being worried.

As soon as she got here, she saw Xu Nuannuan and a mother and daughter walking out of the factory.

She didn't hear clearly what the three people said. She walked up to Xu Nuannuan and asked, "When will you give me my job?"

Xu Nuannuan could see the swollen outlines of her face and mouth even through the mask on her face, and she smiled.

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago that I'll give it to you in a few days? Don't be so anxious. Even if you want to go back to work, you have to wait until your face is healed. Otherwise, you'll affect your appearance."

"You must keep your word and give me the job."

"I never lie."

Zhao Jiayue seemed to be in a much more relaxed mood. She nodded, her eyes looking into the factory uncontrollably.

Xu Nuannuan asked, "You've covered your face so tightly, and your eyes are so sneaky. Aren't you afraid that the gatekeeper will mistake you for an enemy spy and arrest you?"

Zhao Jiayue was very disdainful: "I just took a few glances inside and you think I'm an enemy spy? I don't believe it."

The more Xu Nuannuan didn't let her see, the more she wanted to see.

Xu Nuannuan smiled and said, "Okay, keep hoping."

She pretended to leave, and Zhao Jiayue asked her, "Where are you going?"

"I've taken a leave of absence and can go wherever I want."

Zhao Jiayue pouted at her back, then continued looking towards the factory.

The gatekeeper had been watching her in the pavilion for a long time. The woman was wearing a big mask on her face and was sneaking around the gate. She didn't look like a good person at first glance.

Then he is most likely an enemy spy.

It is everyone's responsibility to capture enemy spies.

The old man immediately called the factory's security personnel. When the old man and two security personnel came over, Zhao Jiayue still didn't understand what was going on and continued to look inside with her curious eyes.

Two security officers arrested her, and the old man angrily interrogated her: "Which country sent you as a spy?!"

"Ah? Traitor? I'm not a spy!"

Zhao Jiayue subconsciously wanted to escape. With a strong desire to survive, she shook off the two security personnel. Unexpectedly, because she ran too fast, her foot tripped on a stone pillar and she fell to the ground with a thud. She was so badly hit that the mask on her face fell off, revealing a face that was red and swollen like a pig's head.

"Oh my god, Marshal Tianpeng has descended to the mortal world!" the old man exclaimed, "I've never seen such a big face before."

Zhao Jiayue quickly picked up the mask and put it on. The two security guards were bolder and grabbed her and took her to the factory.

"I'm not an enemy spy, I'm a local, please let me go." Zhao Jiayue struggled.

"Wait until your family arrives."

Xu Nuannuan continued to prepare for going to the countryside. The tickets she bought on the black market and those given to her by Mo's mother were all local tickets and had time limits. They had to be spent before going to the countryside.

Fortunately, she has a universal safe portable space where she can store all the things she buys.

She went to the supply and marketing cooperative, intending to use up the ten kilograms of sugar coupons first. White Rabbit milk candy was the best candy at that time and also the most expensive, at one yuan and fifty cents per kilogram. Xu Nuannuan bought two kilograms; assorted fruit candies of various flavors were at one yuan per kilogram, so Xu Nuannuan bought three kilograms. White granulated sugar was seventy-eight cents per kilogram. Xu Nuannuan originally wanted to buy some brown sugar, but it was out of stock, so she could only buy five kilograms of white sugar.

After going to the countryside, my parents and I had to do farm work. According to the size of their feet, each person had two pairs of black cloth shoes, one pair for 2.5 yuan, four pairs for 10 yuan, one pair of rubber shoes, three and a half yuan each, two pairs for 7 yuan, thirty pairs of yarn work gloves for 3 yuan, three straw hats for 1.5 yuan, five towels for 4.5 yuan, two tubes of toothpaste for 5 yuan, three bars of soap for 60 cents, two bags of laundry detergent for 1 yuan, and ten small bags of shampoo for 8 yuan.

The tickets were not used up, but she had bought enough things, at least she could barely carry them all with her bare hands.

It is now afternoon and the pork in the supply and marketing cooperative has been sold out. She plans to come early tomorrow morning to buy pork and buy other things at the same time.

After paying the bill and packing the things, I took two large, heavy bags out of the supply and marketing cooperative.

When I got outside, I didn't walk far before I found a secluded place and put all my things into the space.

Empty hands, relaxed.

But when he was about to go home, he saw a person. It was Lao Zheng, who had an affair with Fang Suhuan. There was also a slightly fat middle-aged woman next to Lao Zheng.

Xu Nuannuan observed their words and actions and felt that they were very much like a couple.

However, the middle-aged woman's appearance is not outstanding, and can even be considered a bit ugly.

When she stood with Lao Zheng, people instantly felt that Lao Zheng was being forced.

Xu Nuannuan followed them quietly until they entered the meat processing plant’s staff quarters.

She continued to follow them and saw which building, unit and household they walked into. She left only after the two of them entered the door.

Just now, when Lao Zheng was talking to his wife, he was timid and submissive. Xu Nuannuan concluded that Lao Zheng's wife must be from a very prominent background. Maybe Lao Zheng was just a gigolo who lived off his looks.

But he still has an affair secretly behind his wife's back.

I don’t know if it’s because he can’t control his lower body, or if he’s deliberately trying to find some male dignity outside.

In the evening, Zhao Shulin and Fang Suyun rushed to the machinery factory together, explained the situation to the factory leaders, and took Zhao Jiayue out. After they left the factory, Zhao Jiayue remembered something.

"Dad, Mom. You remember Xu Nuannuan saying you need a factory badge to enter this venue, right? But I saw so many people in the factory, and I didn't see any of them wearing factory badges. Do you think Xu Nuannuan lied to me?"

Fang Suhuan immediately became anxious: "You stupid girl, you even lied to us about this, really."

"Mom, tell me, did she lie to me about the job as well? What did she do with our household registration booklet that day?"

Fang Suhuan immediately pulled Zhao Jiayue into her arms and turned around. "Let's go to the factory and ask her about her job."

"What's the question?"

"Ask her boss if she's already transferred the job to you. Didn't she say it needs to be registered with the factory first? Let's check if it's registered. If it is, then there's nothing to worry about."

But as soon as they reached the factory gate, the security guard walked towards them with his hands on his waist, and then rolled up his arms.

"What's the matter? You still say you are not an enemy spy. If you are not an enemy spy, why are you sneaking around here? Oh, I get it. It's not just this guy with a big face who is an enemy spy, your whole family is an enemy spy.
