Chapter 581: Zhao Peng
Everyone in the team knows about Song Jiayan’s glorious deeds, and anyone even slightly decent would avoid her to not get entangled.
At this moment, they all remembered those things about Song Jiayan and have already believed Xu Mumu’s words. Everyone is clear about Song Jiayan’s character.
"You’re lying, it was you who hit me." Song Jiayan’s face changed slightly. Since she couldn’t find out Yin Yang’s whereabouts from Xu Mumu now, she intended to demand more benefits from Xu Mumu, since they were so wealthy.
"Hehe, would I call you all the way here just to hit you?" Xu Mumu chuckled coldly.
"Exactly, Mumu, I remember our Tiedan mentioned this is called ’staging an accident’ or ’extortion’. Should I call the team leader over for you?" Liu Cuixia immediately said.
"Alright, I’ll trouble Aunt Cuihua then." Xu Mumu nodded with a light smile.
After Liu Cuixia left, Xu Mumu took out a stroller from the car, put her son in it, and brought out some snacks.
"Ladies, here’s some sunflower seeds. Watching the commotion here must be quite boring, have a snack while watching her perform." Xu Mumu took out most of the bag of sunflower seeds and distributed some to the people here.
"Oh wow, Mumu, you’re so considerate. Don’t worry, we definitely won’t let Song Jiayan bully you." Having snacks, people immediately expressed their support. Although life was much better in the team now, it would be a waste not to take advantage of this.
"Yes, yes, it’s all Song Jiayan’s fault, being a shameless mother."
"Thank you, ladies." Xu Mumu said with a smile.
Looking at Song Jiayan sitting on the ground, her face was somewhat distorted, realizing they were treating her like a monkey in a show. Song Jiayan felt even more resentment towards Xu Mumu.
Back then, she snatched Yin Yang away; if not for her, Yin Yang might have married her, after all, she was the prettiest among the educated youth. All blame to Xu Mumu for meddling.
If she had married Yin Yang back then, all that money, the lab building, and the mountain villa would have been hers.
Whenever she thought of this, her hatred for Xu Mumu grew.
That’s why she wanted to scratch Xu Mumu’s face earlier, thinking if Xu Mumu didn’t look good, Yin Yang might notice her.
These people were indeed helpful, while Xu Mumu sat with her child, shaking a rattle in front of him, leisurely listening to the tales of Song Jiayan’s past deeds as recounted by these ladies.
Xu Mumu listened intently, but Song Jiayan was not comfortable, with her wrist hurting, she wanted to extort Xu Mumu but Xu Mumu ignored her, just listening to people’s slanders against her. The women’s voices were not small, she wanted to loudly cry out in pain, but her voice was suppressed, feeling utterly aggrieved.
When the team leader arrived, Song Jiayan was still sitting on the ground miserably, constantly shedding tears, while Zhao Dashan’s family also came, and Zhao Dashan’s mother was hiding behind the people.
She didn’t rush out, thinking if Song Jiayan could extort some benefits from Xu Mumu, it would be hers to take back, then give her eldest grandson something extra to eat.
Zhao Guodong’s face instantly fell when he saw Song Jiayan. The most frequent mediation issues in these two years have been Song Jiayan’s affairs. Song Jiayan was a real troublemaker, causing all sorts of issues every time, sometimes waking him up at night to deal with them.
Though she hadn’t done anything extremely bad, she kept doing annoying things, continuously committing them despite repeated punishments.
If asked who was the most troublesome in the team after Li Caixia left, it was definitely Song Jiayan.
With the team leader came a middle-aged man, someone Xu Mumu recognized - Zhao Qing’s elder brother Zhao Peng. Xu Mumu heard two years ago that Zhao Peng’s factory closed down, and he returned to the countryside with his wife to farm with his father.
For the past two years, Zhao Guodong has taken Zhao Peng along to handle various village affairs. Liu Cuixia mentioned that the team leader wanted his son to become the next team leader, and was teaching him now.
This matter wasn’t a secret in the village. Zhao Peng was honest and diligent, had completed middle school, got along well with the village people, and occasionally helped out, hence he had a good reputation. People didn’t object to the team leader cultivating him as the next team leader.
"What happened?" Zhao Guodong rubbed his brow, looking at Xu Mumu and Song Jiayan.
"Team leader, Xu Mumu hit me. Look, she squeezed my hand and made it swell like this." Song Jiayan was the first to complain.
"Team leader, don’t listen to her, she’s clearly defaming Mumu. Mumu came back to check things in the lab and was extorted by Song Jiayan." During the waiting time, these women were chatty, and Xu Mumu’s purpose for returning wasn’t something to hide, so Xu Mumu directly told them.
Having eaten Xu Mumu’s sunflower seeds, they were particularly active in helping Xu Mumu argue back.
"Yes, yes, it’s clear Song Jiayan is still hung up on Yin Yang, trying to take advantage of Yin Yang’s absence to bully Mumu."
Zhao Guodong’s mouth twitched, wondering if they were too idle: "I wasn’t asking you all." Zhao Guodong felt tired.
"Let me explain." Xu Mumu chuckled, then started explaining to Zhao Guodong what happened since she arrived.
"Is what Mumu said true?" Zhao Guodong looked at Song Jiayan. What Xu Mumu said was a simple statement of facts, without any embellishments, and Zhao Guodong had already believed Xu Mumu.
"Clearly, Xu Mumu snatched Yin Yang away from me. I used to have such a good relationship with Yin Yang, but she interfered, which led Yin Yang to marry her. What’s wrong with me still missing Yin Yang?" Song Jiayan said it righteously.
"If Yin Yang really liked you, he wouldn’t have accused you back then and sent you to farm labor." Xu Mumu said with a faint smile.
These words stabbed Song Jiayan’s heart again, making her look at Xu Mumu with red eyes, wishing to rush over and fight her.
What Xu Mumu said was true, back then, Song Jiayan schemed against Yin Yang, and he wasn’t a forgiving person, couldn’t bear someone scheming against him. When they were sent for reformation, he specifically asked someone to take care of them, giving them the hardest labor and the worst food.
"Was it you who made us suffer back then? Was it you behind it?" Song Jiayan shouted loudly.
"That wasn’t me; my family hasn’t got that capability. It was your beloved Yin Yang. You dared to act back then, why couldn’t he retaliate?" Xu Mumu curled her lips.
