Chapter 276: Chapter 276 Liking Someone Else’s Wife

Wang Feng and Yu Jing were also a loving couple.

But, He Xiuyu’s character is impeccable, she was worrying over nothing.

"...But one must still be careful, never take things lightly. The base is getting more and more people, especially many young and beautiful women. Some young girls just like to fixate on successful men who are married with children, who knows what’s wrong with them, truly fucking disgusting."

"Maybe picking up something ready-made is particularly comforting for them," Qiao Qingyu said with a smile.

When He Xiuyu came back in the evening, Qiao Qingyu still quietly told him about the matter.

"...I’ve been pondering all afternoon, and I was wondering, how did Tian Li and Wang Feng get involved? And Wang Feng, he’s got such nerve, how could he dare to sleep with a colleague’s wife?"

Then she glanced at He Xiuyu with a meaningful look and said, "Actually, some men really are perverts, they just love other people’s wives."

This was definitely not slander; it was even historically verifiable.

He Xiuyu stretched out his hand and pinched his wife’s cheek, "Don’t look at me with that kind of gaze, your husband is not that disgusting."

But he then fell into contemplation, "If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t bring it up either. Do you know? Wang Feng’s death was very strange. Just before that, the base hospital had just completed physical check-ups for the engineers, and Wang Feng had a very healthy heart. Whether Mr. Zhao is infertile has not been investigated, but on the day Wang Feng had the accident, someone saw Tian Li talking with him."

"How long after they parted did Wang Feng have the accident?"

"About two hours."

"Did you guys ask Tian Li?"

"We asked. Tian Li only said she went to the shop to buy something and just chatted for a while when she saw him."

At that time, no one knew that these two had such a secret relationship.

But now the man is gone, who would believe it if only Zhu Guizhi said so here?

Zhu Guizhi had been silent all along, probably thinking the same.

Then, after more than half a month of feeling something was off, she came forward, although she admonished Qiao Qingyu not to tell anyone, she had her own calculations, telling Qiao Qingyu was tantamount to telling He Xiuyu, and Qiao Qingyu would keep her secret.

Qiao Qingyu said, "I think you all should check out Old Wei’s place; maybe you’ll find some clues."

He Xiuyu hummed softly but couldn’t sit still. He said in a low voice, "You go to sleep first, I’ll go find Old Wei and Director Lin."

He Xiuyu got up after speaking, his movements swift as he left.

Qiao Qingyu looked outside the window, not knowing when he would return.

The days that followed were quiet, so there was no knowing whether they found any useful clues at Old Wei’s place.

It is presumed that Tian Li and Wang Feng stopped their affair after her belly started to show.

Even if there were evidence, the scientific methods available now wouldn’t be able to extract it.

The base elementary school was finally established, and unexpectedly, Zhu Mingli was successful in her application.

She didn’t know what she was thinking when she ran in front of Qiao Qingyu to brag, "I know you definitely didn’t speak well of me behind my back. Luckily, the chief examiner has nothing to do with your family, or else I definitely wouldn’t have been selected."

Qiao Qingyu glanced at her, not sure whether to call her smart or not, so she felt a bit troubled—can such a person really be a teacher?

"...If you want to safely get through the probationary period, you shouldn’t say this kind of thing in front of me," Qiao Qingyu said with a smile, not the least bit annoyed.

Sun Aizhi furrowed her brow. Although she was an office clerk at the office, she still preferred being at school. There weren’t as many messy issues, and there were winter and summer breaks.

She naturally succeeded in getting the job.

She had never expected that what Zhu Mingli had stopped Qiao Qingyu to say would be this.

Had she known, she would never have walked with her. Fool!

Qiao Qingyu was worried and still went to find Shen Fen. Only after learning that these young ones wouldn’t be teaching main subjects for a while did she feel relieved.

Let Zhu Mingli teach music, then. She could sing if she wanted.

If she could teach their Rongrong to sing out of tune, she’d treat her to a meal!

School was about to start, and Qiao Qingyu busied herself tending to her vegetable garden, flooding what needed to be flooded and drying what needed to be aired. She was calm and collected, after all, she could come back once a week, so she felt quite relaxed and comfortable. That’s why Qiao Qingyu thought her earlier decision was brilliant.

The Qiao Family Team was about to harvest in the autumn. This year had good winds and timely rains—another bumper harvest year.

Before the harvest had even begun, many people were already placing advance orders for corn seeds.

Qiao Zhicai and Qiao Shengbao had taken two more orders. Qiao Shengbao had gone to Nangang City three times by himself and had become quite adept through the experience.

Qiao Mubao was going to take the college entrance exam next year, but ever since he found out that his second sister, Qiao Qingyu, had become the liberal arts top-scorer, the pressure on him doubled. He was determined to not only become the top science scorer in North City but also the first in Ning’an County.

Qiao Qingyu felt very heartened after finding out. The kid was smart, but he was quite playful.

Qiao Qingyu sent him all her review materials, including many key points sorted out by He Xiuyu.

With these resources, he should be able to perform normally and get good results in next year’s college entrance examination if he didn’t get too nervous.

Qiao Qingyu and He Xiuyu together took care of the cabbages and radishes they had planted, just like last year, storing some in the cellar and pickling some into sauerkraut. The leftover beans and eggplants were sliced and hung to dry. As for the potatoes, Qiao Qingyu didn’t have time to take care of them because school was starting for her.

With Sister-in-law Li helping, these tasks would be handled properly, and with Sister-in-law Li looking after Rongrong, Qiao Qingyu was at ease.

Even staying at the dormitory, with Chu Ying offering her help quietly, Qiao Qingyu admired her perseverance. She probably guessed that He Xiuwen didn’t even know who Chu Ying was.

Moreover, it was rumored that He Xiuwen’s ex-wife was returning to the country.

On the last day of August, Qiao Qingyu was heading to Xichuan Agricultural College to register. Naturally, He Xiuyu came along with Rongrong to send her off to college.

He Xiuyu drove the base’s jeep, with Qiao Qingyu’s luggage, washbasin, thermos, and other living and toiletries loaded in the back.

He Xuerong was also starting school tomorrow, the little girl said cheerfully, "Little aunt, we have to remember September 1st, we’re both starting school on the same day."

"Yes, Rongrong, September 1st, 1981. Your little aunt can’t forget that I’m going to school with little Rongrong."

"But little aunt, you’re going to college, and I’m going to elementary school..." He Xuerong’s tone was full of disappointment. How great it would have been to go to college with little aunt.

Qiao Qingyu pinched her little cheek, "Little aunt will be back on Saturday. Make sure to eat well and listen to your little uncle’s words..."

There was nothing else to instruct. The child had her little uncle, Chief Engineer He, taking care of her. At the base, she was treated like a treasure; everyone who saw her smiled warmly.
