Surprise! The rough husband is the hidden boss of the period literature

Chapter 88 What does it mean to be one of our own?

Qiao Xinyu was furious. "Who told you this nonsense? Huanhuan doesn't even have a fiancé! If you dare to slander her, I'll report you to the police!"

Jiang Xingye instantly felt like he could breathe again.

Xu Qinghuan talked about the five hundred yuan matter in front of everyone at the county guesthouse.

But it has been spread like this, I don’t know whether the person who spread the message did it on purpose, or the person who listened to it didn’t take it seriously.

She said, "Aunt, it's my ex-fiancé. My ex-fiancé didn't like me, but fell in love with my cousin. They were very close, and to compensate me, his family gave me 500 yuan when they broke off the engagement.

We've both called off the engagement, and you still call him my fiancé? That's really slandering me!"

Jiang Xingye unconsciously exerted force on the handrail that was holding the armrest, causing his biceps to bulge high and veins to pop out on his arms.

He wanted to pull that blind bastard over and give him a beating.

Hu E smiled awkwardly, "Hey, I heard that from someone too."

Xu Qinghuan said bluntly, "Really? Who told you that? The person who spread the word also said he was my fiancé?"

"Who knows?" Hu E said, "If you want to cancel the engagement, then cancel it. But now that you've canceled the engagement, you're just second-hand goods. No matter how rich you are, it's hard to find a good marriage!"

Dong Sufen couldn't stand hearing these words and said angrily, "Aunt Hu, you've lost your husband before, but you can still marry Uncle An Gui again. Xu Zhiqing is rich and beautiful, and she can choose any man in the world. Anyway, no matter what, the boys in your family don't have this blessing!"

There are two major surnames in Shangjiang Brigade, one is Jiang and the other is Dong. These two surnames have the most say because they have a large number of people and are so powerful, with branches connected to branches and roots intertwined.

The rest are all miscellaneous surnames.

Hu E's husband, Du Angui, was a man whose ancestors moved here from other places. He was weak and his family was poor, otherwise he would not have married Hu E, a widow.

After Hu E got married, she gave birth to five sons. Now all five sons have grown up. She thinks she can hold her head high and speak with confidence in the village.

But they only dared to bully people with different surnames and educated youth from outside the province, and they did not dare to provoke people with the surname Jiang or Dong.

As soon as Dong Sufen opened her mouth, she became like a quail and dared not say a word.

Xu Qinghuan smiled gratefully at Dong Sufen. Dong Sufen also liked this educated youth and nodded kindly. When they arrived at the commune, the group got off the bus.

There were only five educated youth left on the bus, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Dewen finally had the chance to ask, "Xu Zhiqing, how did the village know about your broken engagement with Jiang Chengxu?"

Jiang Xingye sat in the front, but he pricked up his ears to listen to the people talking behind him.

The rumbling sound of the tractor was very loud, which was why the person speaking had to shout at the top of his lungs.

There were no outsiders involved. Chen Dewen thought that the three of them and Xu Qinghuan were good friends, and he only cared and asked out of righteous indignation.

Xu Qinghuan also knew her good intentions and did not hide it. "When we came here, at the county guesthouse, I gave Xiaomin a candy. Lu Nianying said in a sarcastic tone that her adoptive mother gave me child support, so I said it was the Jiang family's compensation."

Dai Yifeng and Zheng Siqi frowned, obviously suspecting Lu Nianying.

Anyway, it’s either Lu Nianying or Kong Lijuan, it can’t be escaped that it’s these two people.

Qiao Xinyu asked, "Then was this money paid by the Jiang family?"

If so, the Jiang family is not without bottom line.

Xu Qinghuan said, "No, the money was indeed given by the Jiang family, but it wasn't compensation for breaking off the engagement. I sold a piece of information to Jiang Chengxu's mother, and she gave me 500 yuan." Chen Dewen immediately became very interested. "What information? Is it that information?"

His eyes lit up, and he became excited. Xu Qinghuan smiled and said, "If you're talking about that guy, then that's right!"

Chen Dewen gave Xu Qinghuan a thumbs-up. "You're amazing! I have to thank you for this. If it weren't for your information, and if the Jiang family hadn't started a quarrel among themselves, my dad might not have had this opportunity."

Xu Qinghuan said, "Oh, your dad was elected as the factory director? That's great news, congratulations!"

Chen Dewen said, "I have to thank you for this. Today is the best day. I will treat you to dinner at the state-owned restaurant today!"

When he said this, he looked at Qiao Xinyu.

Xu Qinghuan also glanced at her best friend and saw that she was unusually well-behaved. She sat still, her eyes fixed on her nose and her nose focused on her heart. Her body swayed with the shaking of the tractor, but her ears and neck were red, unable to hide her shyness.

Is this a case of the man being in love and the woman being willing?
She smiled and said, "How about you treat Xinyu to a meal? I'm going to the county today to visit an uncle who was my father's comrade-in-arms. Please help take care of Xinyu and let her stay with you. Otherwise, I won't be at ease."

Chen Dewen said, "Don't forget, we were high school classmates. Do you even need me to tell you that?"

Xu Qinghuan smiled, her pair of clear, bright eyes full of teasing. Chen Dewen saw that she had seen through her, and coughed a little unnaturally, turning his face away, his cheeks flushed.

Qiao Xinyu didn't care about being shy anymore and hugged Xu Qinghuan's arm, "Ah, are you going alone? I'm worried about you going alone!"

Xu Qinghuan patted her arm and said, "Don't worry about me. My uncle is in the armed forces department. I'm going to visit him. We'll meet at the state-owned hotel."

"Okay, then be careful!"

Arriving at the county town, Jiang Xingye parked the car in front of the state-owned hotel. Just as Xu Qinghuan was about to get out, he turned around and said, "I'll take you to the Armed Forces Department."

Xu Qinghuan rarely left, so he continued to sit on it, "Okay!"

After saying goodbye to Qiao Xinyu and the others, Xu Qinghuan leaned against the horizontal bar of the tow box and asked Jiang Xingye, "Brother Ye, will anyone report you for using the public bus for personal purposes?"

It was as if she was talking next to his ear. Her voice was low, but every word was audible. Her hot air sprayed on his ears, and his ears turned visibly red.

"No, no one dares to report it!" Jiang Xingye felt very unnatural and even stuttered when he spoke.

Xu Qinghuan chuckled. The three words "no one dares" were quite magical.

Jiang Xingye realized what he had said and felt uneasy. He tilted his head slightly and said, "I'm not always this fierce. I'm not fierce to... to my own people!"

Xu Qinghuan said, "I know," and then tried to tease him, "Then what does it mean to be considered one of our own? Your uncle's family? Who else?"

Jiang Xingye didn't say anything for a long time. He parked the tractor in front of the armed forces department, turned off the engine, turned his head to look at Xu Qinghuan, and said with courage, "And... you!"

The last word was pronounced with great emphasis.

His gaze fell heavily on Xu Qinghuan's face, not missing any expression on her face.

He still wanted to give himself a chance.

As long as she shows the slightest dislike, he will stay away from her from now on and protect her from afar.

Xu Qinghuan's eyes were sparkling, and her deer-like eyes were like a pool of autumn water, clear and transparent, with a hint of encouragement that was hardly noticeable. She pursed her lips and smiled gently, then jumped off the car like a naughty little swallow.

Jiang Xingye was so frightened that he reached out to take it.
