Qin Yang did not expect Lin Chuxia to say such a thing.
He knew Lin Chuxia had money on hand, but having money was one thing, and how to get along with one’s siblings was another. Otherwise, why would there be a saying like "even brothers should settle accounts clearly"?
Not to mention daughters-in-law, many brothers are like this too. If I have it, it’s because of my ability, and what belongs to me in the family is still mine.
He had never quibbled with his elder brother over these things, and he hadn’t expected his wife to be even more open-minded.
"Alright, wife, I’ll listen to you."
Lin Chuxia smiled, "Then let’s return the money to elder brother tomorrow, let him save properly, and we’ll look forward to living in his newly renovated house. As for us, it’s already great to have the housing unit allotted to you, and besides, it’s not like there’s nowhere for us to go in An City. We can live in the workers’ small courtyard later on, or even buy another one."
"All good."
Qin Yang was transferred to the city, and his unit would allocate housing.
Lin Chuxia was also ready, planning to acquire several small courtyards if the opportunity presented itself.
In a few years, the land in the city would be worth much more than in the county.
But these plans had not yet been made, nor was there any need to speak of them.
The next day, Qin Yang got up early, and Lin Chuxia also wanted to go with him to Xiyang Food Factory, but Qin Yang knew she had other things to do and directly refused.
"Do you think, without Mr. Lin present, Hou Xiaobao won’t give me this face? Don’t worry, I come representing Mr. Lin’s prestige."
Lin Chuxia wasn’t concerned about this, but hearing him say so, she let him go.
Upon reaching Xiyang Food Factory, Qin Yang first sought out Su Wensong.
He had other matters to deal with today, and the rumors needed quick resolution.
Su Wensong, as one of the people involved in the rumors, was not unreasonable to be asked to handle it.
Su Wensong listened to Qin Yang’s explanation and became surprisingly angry, "This is a rumor, Mr. Qin, you must believe in Mr. Lin, our relationship is purely professional, and there has never been any inappropriate behavior between us at any time. You should know what kind of person she is even better than I do."
Confronted by Qin Yang with such a matter, Su Wensong showed no guilt; his feelings towards Lin Chuxia were all respect and care.
In terms of capability and position, he respected Lin Chuxia as his boss; personally, Lin Chuxia was much younger than him and a good sister to his wife, so he occasionally treated her like a younger sister as well.
Qin Yang, of course, trusted his own wife, "I know, that’s why I came to you to resolve this. I have to go to the city today, and Chuxia still doesn’t know about the rumors. I hope to put an end to such talk as soon as possible and find the person who spread the rumors."
"Alright, leave it to me."
Su Wensong agreed without hesitation.
To him, Lin Chuxia was a benefactor, a savior, and the matchmaker for him and his wife.
And yet he let her fall victim to these rumors. Feeling both angry and guilty, Su Wensong thought such a woman should not have even the slightest blemish.
He just wanted to find the person spreading the rumors as soon as possible and teach them a lesson.
After arranging things, Qin Yang finally felt assured to let Hou Xiaobao drive him to the city to report in.
In the office, seeing Qin Yang, the unit leader Wei Bingchang said with a smile, "Comrade Qin Yang, waiting eagerly, but finally, we’ve been looking forward to your arrival." freēwēbnovel.com
