Traveling through the Great Northern Wilderness and marrying the most beautiful educated youth.

Looking at Su Qingyun's tall and strong physique, Gou Dezhi felt a chill run down his spine and dared not get up on his own.

He turned and roared at the two stunned clerks: "What are you all standing there for!"

"Get him! Cuff him!"

The two clerks looked at each other, knowing they were in the wrong, but since their section chief had spoken, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward.

Just then, Xiao Liu, who had gone to deliver the message, squeezed into the crowd.

The more he looked at Su Qingyun from outside, the more familiar she seemed, and then he suddenly remembered.

Isn't this the young man who was working with Qin Chuyu downstairs at Factory Director Qin's house just now?

Xiao Liu broke out in a cold sweat and quickly whispered in Gou Dezhi's ear, "Section Chief Gou, don't do it yet!"

He lowered his voice, "I just saw this man. He was with Qin Chuyu, the daughter of Factory Director Qin, chatting and laughing together!"

Upon hearing the name of Factory Director Qin, Gou Dezhi instantly lost his confidence and wilted on the spot.

Director Qin is the top leader of the forest farm, what's a mere security squad leader like him!

"Are you sure?" Gou Dezhi's voice trembled.

"It's absolutely true! I saw them enter the factory manager's building with my own eyes!"

Gou Dezhi's eyes darted around, and he quickly ordered, "You, go and find out what's going on with this kid at Director Qin's house!"

Xiao Liu accepted the order and immediately made a hasty escape.

To buy time, Gou Dezhi simply sat down on the ground, clutching his head and groaning in pain.

"Ouch, my head! This kid went too far, I'm so dizzy..."

When Ma Lijuan saw her husband like this, she was so anxious she jumped up and down.

"Husband, what's wrong with you! You two blockheads, why aren't you grabbing this peasant!"

She yelled at the two clerks.

The two were caught in a dilemma, and could only stand there helplessly.

Su Qingyun watched the farce with a cold eye, fully aware of the situation.

Although he was speechless at the moment, these people were really dramatic.

He was too lazy to waste words with these people, so he reached into his pocket for money, intending to slap the money for brown sugar and face cream directly onto the counter.

When he took out his money, he accidentally brought out the pass slip that Li Mei had just written.

The note fluttered lightly to the ground.

Ma Lijuan, with her sharp eyes, pounced on the paper like a madwoman and snatched it tightly from her hand.

"Fine! You still say you didn't steal anything!"

"What is this? This is the evidence!" she screamed, waving the note in front of the crowd.

Su Qingyun sneered and didn't stop him at all: "Fine, take it and see what's written on it."

Ma Lijuan was semi-literate and could barely read a few characters. She triumphantly handed the note to Gou Dezhi, who was sitting on the ground.

"Honey, look! This country bumpkin is stealing government secrets!"

Gou Dezhi covered his head and casually took the note.

His gaze swept over her, and his face turned deathly pale instantly.

The note was prominently stamped with the bright red seal of the Finance Department! It was signed by Li Mei, the head of the Finance Department!

That is, Factory Director Qin's wife!

Gou Dezhi's hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

By now, Xiao Liu had run breathlessly to the factory manager's red brick building.

He climbed up to the third floor in one breath and knocked on the door of Li Mei, the head of the finance department.

Li Mei was wearing an apron, preparing to cook porridge for her husband.

"Director Li, I'm sorry to bother you."

With a broad smile, Xiao Liu cautiously probed for information, "Just now, a young man in a tattered vest said he was stopped at the gate when he tried to leave."

I saw him leave from your building, so I came to ask, just in case the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple.

Upon hearing this, Li Mei immediately understood.

These days, the private buying and selling of agricultural products isn't a huge business, but it's not insignificant either.

If word gets out that the factory manager's family was leading the way in buying rice on the black market, it will have a very bad impact.

Her mind raced, and she smiled knowingly, "Oh, you mean Qingyun?"

"That's a distant relative of mine from the countryside. They came to visit us, the old couple, today."

"What, the security department is even stopping my relatives?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Liu's legs went weak with fear: "No, no, no! It's a misunderstanding, absolutely a misunderstanding! I'll go back and let them through right away!"

Having received a definite answer, Xiao Liu was flattered and took his leave.

He dashed back to the supply and marketing cooperative, pushed through the crowd, and whispered in Gou Dezhi's ear, "Section Chief Gou, we've found out! Director Li said it himself, he's a distant relative of Factory Director Qin!"

Upon hearing this report, Gou Dezhi was completely stunned.

His body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground, terrified out of his wits.

Good heavens!

A relative of Factory Director Qin! He's even holding a note personally approved by Director Li!

How could he call someone a thief and even want to arrest them?

This is like an old man eating poison; he's tired of living!

Oblivious to the danger, Ma Lijuan continued frantically urging, "Honey, what are you standing there for! Arrest them!"

She even reached out and grabbed Gou Dezhi's arm.

"Get out of here!"

Gou Dezhi abruptly shoved Ma Lijuan aside and began to curse loudly.

"Are you fucking crazy?! You're totally out of your mind!"

Ma Lijuan stumbled as she was pushed, her face filled with astonishment.

Immediately afterwards, Gou Dezhi's expression changed as quickly as turning the pages of a book.

He scrambled to his feet, not even bothering to brush the dirt off his clothes.

With a fawning smile plastered on his face and his back hunched, he jogged up to Su Qingyun.

"Oh dear, Brother Su! It's a misunderstanding! A huge misunderstanding!"

Gou Dezhi bowed and scraped, respectfully handing the note back to Su Qingyun with both hands.

"It's all my fault for being blind and not recognizing you as a relative of Factory Director Qin! This is all that blind woman's fault for spouting nonsense!"

Please don't take it to heart!

This dramatic 180-degree turn left the onlookers completely bewildered.

The crowd fell silent, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Has this Gou Dezhi gone mad?"

"Why are you suddenly apologizing to some country bumpkin?"

"Didn't you hear him say that this young man is a relative of Factory Director Qin?"

The crowd erupted in a commotion, and the way they looked at Su Qingyun changed completely, from sympathy to awe.

Su Qingyun slowly took the note and put it back in her pocket.

Li Mei was indeed meticulous in her work; her status as a distant relative saved her a lot of trouble.

His gaze swept over Gou Dezhi's obsequious face, his tone remaining calm: "Section Chief Gou, may I buy something now?"

"Yes! Absolutely!"

Gou Dezhi patted his chest and guaranteed, "The supply and marketing cooperative is open for business, and anyone can buy from it!"

"Anyone who dares not sell to you, I, Gou Dezhi, will be the first to beat them up!"

Ma Lijuan, who was standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.

She usually acts arrogantly, relying entirely on her husband, who is the head of the security department, for support.

Now, not only does her husband not arrest her, but he also yells at her in front of so many people, making her bow down to a peasant!

Ma Lijuan's face flushed red; she felt utterly humiliated: "Gou Dezhi! Are you seriously ill?!"

She screamed and lunged at him, reaching out to grab Gou Dezhi's face. "You coward, how dare you help outsiders bully your wife!"

Gou Dezhi looked at the crowd pointing and whispering around him, feeling both anxious and afraid.

If this matter reaches Director Qin, I'll really lose my job!

To keep his job, a ruthless glint flashed in Gou Dezhi's eyes.

He suddenly swung his thick arm.

Snapped!

A crisp, loud slap landed hard on Ma Lijuan's face.

The slap was delivered with full force, causing Ma Lijuan to spin halfway around on the spot, and blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.

She stood there, covering her face, stunned, while the onlookers cheered with delight.

"Well done!"

"That shrew should have been taught a lesson long ago!"

Hearing the cheers around her, Ma Lijuan's psychological defenses completely collapsed.

With her hair disheveled and eyes bloodshot, she was completely in a frenzied state, roaring as she charged towards Gou Dezhi.
