Chapter 32 Domestic Violence
In the early morning, facing the cold wind outside, Shen Feifei put on a woolen coat that Duran bought for her a few days ago. The red coat made her look even fairer.

Du Lan saw Shen Feifei coming out of the bedroom, and pulled her over to stand with Shen Yueru, who was wearing a blue coat today, and happily asked Song Qingfei next to her: "Look, mom has good taste, these new clothes make my two daughters look really beautiful."

Song Qingfei looked at Shen Feifei standing there in her red coat. Today she didn't tie her hair into pigtails, but instead tied her hair up high, which looked novel and beautiful.

Shen Feifei felt Song Qingfei's fiery gaze. She knew that Song Qingfei liked her. Looking at the words above his head, Shen Feifei couldn't help blushing. She quickly changed the subject and hurried to work after dinner.

She actually liked Song Qingfei's appearance, and he was a nice guy. Knowing that such a handsome guy liked her, Shen Feifei was naturally happy. But thinking that he was her nominal brother, although they were not related by blood, they were in the same household registration after all, Shen Feifei didn't know what to do. The main reason was that she was afraid that if they didn't get along after being together, they would have to meet again after breaking up, which would be quite embarrassing.

It makes sense that a rabbit doesn't eat grass near its burrow, but Song Qingfei is indeed good-looking, and Shen Feifei can't say no, so she decided to do this for now and take it one step at a time.

Shen Feifei, who was thinking about something, came to the company, entered the office and sat down. She saw that her master's seat was still empty. She thought that usually her master came earlier than her, so what happened today?
After a while, the director came to her and said, "Fei Fei, your master has asked for leave. We need to go to the milk factory to purchase goods today. Everyone is busy. Can you go by yourself?"

Shen Feifei agreed: "I can do that, Director. Just give me the purchase order. Director, do you know why my master asked for leave?"

"Okay, I'll give you the list later. If you have any questions, just call me. As for why your master took leave, I'm not sure. She took a week off. So I'll give you your master's address and a phone number near her home. If you want to know, go over there yourself." After giving the instructions, the director turned around and went back to his office.

Shen Feifei decided to go to her master's house after finishing work today. Her master was very good to her, so she had to go and show some concern.

Holding the list, Shen Feifei took a bus to the dairy factory. After getting off the bus, she walked for another ten minutes to the gate. She told the gatekeeper her purpose and showed the list in her hand. She was let into the factory and followed the instructions to the office.

Their mall was going to purchase a batch of milk powder this time. After discussing the matter with the other party, Shen Feifei did not leave immediately, but asked: "Director Xu, can I order milk from your factory without a ticket?"

"It is definitely possible to order this. If you order more, you can get a discount, but you need a ticket. Of course, if it is an internal purchase, or if there is excess production, you don't need a ticket." Director Xu patiently explained to Shen Feifei. After listening, Shen Feifei asked, "Then Director Xu, in addition to making milk powder with milk, does our factory also produce other milk products?"

"At present, our factory mainly produces milk, milk powder and milk candy, and does not produce other products."

Shen Feifei said: "I ate cream cake in the restaurant of the foreign exchange store some time ago. It tasted very good. I think we can learn foreign cream technology and produce smooth cream ourselves. I believe the market will definitely welcome it."

"I'll mention this to my R&D colleagues when I get back. I've eaten cream cake once before and it really tastes good. If we can produce it, more people will be able to taste the flavor of cream cake."

Shen Feifei knew that although Director Xu said so, he did not take Shen Feifei's suggestion to heart. Shen Feifei was planning to open a cake shop, so she naturally hoped that the nearby factory would sell ready-made cream, so that she would not have to make the cream herself or go to a faraway place to buy it.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Director Xu, Shen Feifei left. The milk powder from the dairy factory will be delivered to the mall tomorrow, and the payment will be settled with the accountant at that time.

Shen Feifei took another two hours of bus ride from the suburban factory back to the city. With the address in hand, Shen Feifei found the home of her master Jia Guimei.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone in the family had gone to work or school. Only Jia Guimei and her mother-in-law were at home. Shen Feifei knocked on the door. Footsteps were heard in the courtyard. A plump woman in her sixties opened the door and asked, "Girl, who are you looking for?"

"Hello, Auntie. I'm looking for Jia Guimei, she's my master." Shen Feifei replied with a smile. Jia Guimei's mother-in-law laughed dryly and said, "Then come in. Your master is in the room. Just go in directly." After that, she shouted into the room, "Guimei, your apprentice is here to see you."

Shen Feifei handed the eggs she bought from a nearby supply and marketing cooperative to the lady in front of her. Jia Guimei's mother-in-law took them and said modestly: "Just come here, why buy anything?" After that, she quickly put the eggs into the kitchen.

Shen Feifei walked into the room and saw Jia Guimei lying on the bed with a bruised face. She hurried forward. Jia Guimei's mother-in-law said, "I'll pour you a cup of tea" and then went out.

Shen Feifei looked at Jia Guimei like this and asked her with a worried look on her face: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Jia Guimei sighed and started crying. She said, "I'm embarrassed to say this. My husband beat me."

Shen Feifei frowned: "Why did he hit you? What right did he have to hit you!"

Jia Guimei said: "He was usually very nice to me and a family man, but he loved to beat people when he was drunk. He became more and more violent in recent years. When he sobered up, he began to kneel down and apologize to me."

"Then why didn't he hit anyone else but you? What about your mother-in-law and the others?"

"Every time I was beaten, my father-in-law would come to stop him, and my mother-in-law would take the children to her room. The reason why he was beaten so hard this time was because my father-in-law went back to his hometown in the countryside these days and no one stopped him. My mother-in-law was afraid that the children would be beaten, so she took them all to her room."

Shen Feifei was furious after hearing this: "How long has he been like this?"

"It was during these five or six years that he started to like drinking."

"He never thought about giving up drinking?"

Seeing Jia Guimei shaking her head, Shen Feifei didn't know what she, an outsider, could do. No one got divorced these days. Even if the police were called if a husband beat his wife, they would still treat it as an internal family conflict and there was no other way.

The two chatted for a few sentences, and seeing that it was getting late, Shen Feifei was about to say goodbye and leave. Just as she was leaving, she happened to meet Jia Guimei's husband Zhang Dayong who was returning home.

Shen Feifei called out to the man, and then spoke to him for a few words. Seeing the gossip about this man, she thought she knew why he didn't get drunk and act crazy when he was young, but now he likes to get drunk and hit people. It turned out that he had met his first love.
