Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Illegitimate Child Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Illegitimate Child Typically, dormitories like these weren’t large, but they were still adequate for a couple to live in.
You have to understand that many factories are solving their housing problems this way nowadays.
Agriculture has developed, technology has developed, so what’s next to develop?
Roads, housing, comrce, schools, dical care, etc…
Not to ntion other places, just look at the base alone, there are many urgent matters at hand.
Qiao Qingyu left Xiaxi Commune.
Fang Xiaoi was tempted, to tell the truth, even if she worked at the commune, it just didn’t sound as good as working at Tenghai Research Base.
It’s not a matter of vanity, it’s a matter of capability.
Qiao Qingyu was He Xiuyu’s wife, and He Xiuyu wouldn’t let his wife suffer, and given Qiao Qingyu’s personality, she wouldn’t do anything unsuitable.
Actually, she had wanted to agree right away, but she still had to discuss it with her family first. Wouldn’t it be better if they all agreed?
The very next morning, Qiao Qingyu received a phone call from Fang Xiaoi, who jubilantly told her that her family had all agreed, including her partner Chen Sheng.
However, she was worried that her job transfer might be canceled, which could affect retirent and pension issues in the future.
“Your job can be temporarily placed at the Zone 5 Original Seed Laboratory.” It was a unit with complete official procedures.
Fang Xiaoi was even more delighted, saying she could start work after the New Year.
Then, Qiao Qingyu made a trip and also hired Wang Laogen as a temporary worker at the Zone 5 Laboratory.
She took responsibility for both of their job situations.
As for Wang Laogen, he was fine with anything. Whether temporary or not, he didn’t care. As long as he had work to do, money to make, and could provide for his wife and children, he was very content.
Obviously, he wouldn’t stop there.
So jobs can’t be filled imdiately as they beco available.
Qiao Qingyu had her own considerations for using these two people. One was Wang Laogen, a genuine farr through and through, very intelligent, with extensive experience in agricultural cultivation.
He had worked and toiled in different places, could say he’s been busy for decades, and his village also had many of his clan mbers.
They were all his reliable supporters.
As for Fang Xiaoi, it wasn’t about Qiao Qingyu’s influence, but because Fang Xiaoi also represented Xiaxi Commune.
Mr. Qian was not old either, just over fifty.
He could still work for at least ten more years, and if his work performance was outstanding in the next few years, he might even advance further.
Qiao Qingyu’s business blueprint centered on the area surrounding Xiaxi Commune, which housed Tenghai Research Base, aiming to extend coverage to the surrounding areas.
Naturally, the people she used had her deep intentions, and indeed, both of them were quite good.
With two deputies officially in place, next ca the arrangent of staff below them.
Plans for spring plowing and the seedling phase of her agricultural planting base were essentially settled.
Next, she could prepare for her trip with peace of mind.
Unexpectedly, two days before they were scheduled to depart, a car drove into the base and stopped at the entrance.
He Xiuyu wasn’t in the workshop because he was busy working, sorting out a lot of docunts and materials that needed to be dealt with urgently before they left.
Unexpectedly, the phone on his desk rang. After picking it up and listening to the other party, he was stunned for a mont before saying, “I’ll be at the gatehouse shortly, wait for .”
Afterwards, He Xiuyu hung up the phone, quickly donned his coat, his brow furrowed tightly. He hadn’t expected that his forr sister-in-law, He Xuerong’s biological mother Liu Ge, had actually returned to the country, and had co to Tenghai Research Base, specifically asking to see him.
Was she here to take He Xuerong away?
How could that be possible? He Xiuyu simply couldn’t trust her, that woman’s character was too deplorable—placing He Xuerong in her care would ruin the child.
But he couldn’t just let her stand at the entrance indefinitely, regardless of anything else, Liu Ge was He Xuerong’s biological mother.
He Xiuyu did not bring Liu Ge and her current husband to his ho, but took the two of them to an administrative office in the logistics departnt.
After closing the door, He Xiuyu rubbed his forehead and poured a cup of water for both guests. Liu Ge felt guilty; she really dared not look into He Xiuyu’s eyes.
This ti she was here to take her daughter away, and what was rare was that her husband had been supportive and agreeable all along.
Sitting beside her was a handso man of about twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old, smiling with light dancing in his eyes.
This was the man for whom Liu Ge had abandoned everything to be with.
He Xiuyu hadn’t expected that this man would dare to show his face in front of the He Family so brazenly.
But soon he felt helpless; what could he do about his appearance now—strike him, or scold him?
None of this was realistic.
Liu Ge knew that she would have to face this eventually, especially since she was divorced from He Xiuwen, and now her marriage with her current husband was legally registered.
Still in embarrassnt, she introduced to He Xiuyu, “Xiu Yu, this is my husband Wu Hong.”
He Xiuyu raised his eyebrows slightly, a flicker of surprise crossing his mind, Wu, from M Country, was he related to Wu Xiucai or Wu Xiujie?
Unexpectedly, the man spoke up proactively with a smile, “If it were the past, there’d be no need for introductions, but I never thought that my little uncle would actually find my cousin.”
He Xiuyu cast a dispassionate glance at him, already knowing whose son he was, then still asked, “Your father is…”
“Ah, my father is Wu Xiujie, but we have no relationship, I’ve lived with my mother since I was born; there’s nothing to hide. I’m the illegitimate child of Wu Xiujie.”
This man was indeed clever, openly admitting his awkward status, then Liu Ge’s eyes flashed with a twinge of pity.
He Xiuyu asked Liu Ge with an intense gaze, “What are your intentions?”
“I want to take Rongrong away, to M Country. The education there and other conditions are much better than in China. I will ensure my daughter receives the best education, attends the best schools, and enjoys the best resources.”
“I disagree,” He Xiuyu rejected without a second thought.
Liu Ge grew anxious, her eyes reddening, “Xiu Yu, no matter what, we used to be a family, and Rongrong is my biological daughter. Both legally and morally, I have the right to live with my daughter.”
“Indeed so, but right now I don’t trust you,” He Xiuyu was utterly unmoved.
“I am now a mber of the ballet corps in M Country. I have a respectable job, a villa. Ah Hong has his own company and estate; we can surely offer Rongrong a beautiful and happy future.”
“That’s still not acceptable!” He Xiuyu definitively refused.
“Why not, Xiu Yu? You’re a smart man; you understand. If we take this matter to court, the court will award custody of Rongrong to , you know?”
