Chapter 602 An Old Colleague Got Into Trouble

Lu Hongjun played Tai Chi in the park. After finishing Tai Chi, he played chess with some old men. Ever since he fell while squeezing the bus, Lu Shan and Damai didn't dare to let him pick up their children, so Chaoyang Park became his activity venue.

After checking the time, it was past five o'clock and it was time to go back to eat. He packed up his things and said hello to the old man before going back slowly.

An old man said with envy: "Well, I used to think I had many children, but now I think about it, it's not that big of a deal to have just one."

Just because my wife went to other provinces to take care of the younger son, the eldest brother complained that they favored the younger ones, and the second child blamed him for doing everything for the eldest son. With the second child, he was like a picked child.

The person who was not dealing with Lu Hongjun said: "What is there to envy? His daughter didn't care about him when she went to Hong Kong City. From now on, she will rely on her stepson and stepdaughter. Just wait and cry!"

He doesn't envy Lu Hongjun at all, not at all.

The old man who just spoke said with a smile: "Then you don't know. The house he lives in now was bought by his daughter; and the small car also belongs to his daughter. If you want to make a phone call, you can come over. As for being His step-wife’s children bullied him, and his eldest nephew was only three or four hundred meters away from him, so he would come over to see him every day.”

The old man who was not dealing with Lu Hongjun snorted coldly: "If his daughter is really filial, she should take her to Hong Kong City instead of letting him stay here."

This is a bit of nitpicking. The old man said: "The port city is good, but if you go there, you are not familiar with the place. There is no one to talk to. It's great here. If you have nothing to do, go and practice Tai Chi with us." Play chess and go see the grandchildren if you are bored.”

Everyone said it was good to have a son, and he used to think it was good to have a son, but now his three sons compete in the ring every day, and he still wants them to support his daughter who is not having a good life when she is married far away. Now I think about it, it is better to just have one child. A promising child is better than anything else.

The envied Lu Hongjun came home and saw a young woman with red eyes standing in the yard. He thought she was some relative of Tang Sufen. He said unhappily: "How many times have I told you not to bring anyone home?"

He hates Tang Sufen's relatives from the countryside coming over. The last time these people came to visit, all the dried shrimps, scallops and other seafood that Jiajie gave him were taken away. Fortunately, Jiaxin's tonics were locked up by him, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to keep them. Later, the snuff bottle and pen washer were stolen, and he felt that the hands and feet of the Tang family were dirty.

Tang Sufen said angrily: "I'm looking for you."

Lu Hongjun looked at this woman and thought about it seriously, but he had no impression at all. He asked: "I don't know you, what do you want from me?"

The young woman cried and said: "I am Kang Jinzhou's daughter-in-law. My old Kang, my old Kang was killed. I beg the general manager to save him."

Lu Hongjun's expression changed slightly. Kang Jinzhou was his colleague and the financial section chief of the department store. Now that he was being harmed and suddenly asked for help, he asked in his heart: "What's wrong with Lao Kang?"

Tang Sufen was thoughtful after hearing these words. His husband and Lao Lu are colleagues, and they must be quite old. But this woman was only in her early thirties, good-looking and slender, and she was probably married for the second time. Because in this age group, there is basically no interaction with Lao Lu.

After listening to the young woman's cry, Lu Hongjun realized that someone had reported Kang Jinzhou, saying that he had embezzled public funds from the department store.

The woman cried and said: "General Manager, my old Kang has been innocent all his life, but he was slandered like this before he retired. General Manager, you must restore my old Kang's innocence."

Lu Hongjun corrected her and said, "Don't call me general manager. I have been retired for more than five years. Just call me Lao Lu."

The young woman followed the good advice and said: "Comrade Lao Lu, please save my family, Lao Kang."

Lu Hongjun didn't know what happened to Kang Jinzhou, so he asked her to go into the room and tell him in detail. Unexpectedly, Tang Sufen also came in. She wanted to hear what happened and whether it had anything to do with Lu Hongjun.

Seeing her come in, Lu Hongjun scolded her with a face: "Is the food ready? If not, hurry up and cook it."

Tang Sufen knew that he wouldn't say anything if she stayed, so she turned around and left. But after waiting for a while, he quietly turned back and leaned against the door frame to eavesdrop.

The woman cried for more than half an hour, and Lu Hongjun asked her to go back first. Even if you want to help, you have to inquire about the situation clearly, and you can't listen to one-sided remarks. Besides, he may not be able to help with this matter.

After sending the woman away, Lu Hongjun went to Lu Jiaguang's place. He made two phone calls and was a little surprised when he heard what the other party said: "What? He bought a courtyard house in Sijiucheng. That courtyard house costs more than 50,000 yuan. Oh, I understand, thank you!"

Before the salary reform, the salary of the accounting section chief in Kang Jinzhou was only more than 100, and with benefits, it was only about 200. Even if he could get some defective products, he would not be able to save any money since he had to support his wife and brothers in the countryside and support his wife and children. In the second year of the wage reform, his wife died of illness again, and he married his current wife with two children. In his situation, saving 10,000 yuan would be considered great, but 50,000 yuan would be impossible. This matter was reported as soon as it became known. There was a serious discrepancy between income and expenses, and someone started to investigate.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Hongjun looked unhappy.

Wang Xiaojie saw something wrong with his face and asked, "Third uncle, what's wrong?"

Lu Hongjun didn't hide it, and said: "I asked someone to inquire, and it's not unjust. How can he afford a big house of more than 50,000 yuan with his salary."

Wang Xiaojie was startled, worried that he was old and soft-hearted, and quickly said: "Third uncle, we must not get involved in this kind of thing. If we do, we won't be able to explain clearly."

Lu Hongjun hummed and said, "I'm not old and confused yet. I'm going back. You can go and do your work!"

Wang Xiaojie always felt heavy when she saw his back, but she knew that she couldn't get anything out of him if she asked him, so she went to the Second Hospital to collect clothes. The auntie did the cooking and she didn't need to worry about it.

Now the people in the unit envy Wang Xiaojie so much. She lives in a big house and has an auntie to wash clothes, cook and clean. The house was given by her sister-in-law, and the auntie was hired by her brother-in-law, which made many of her female colleagues envious.

After returning home, Tang Sufen asked, "Old Lu, what did the man of that woman do just now?"

Lu Hongjun was not willing to tell her this: "No matter what mistakes he made, I have been retired for so many years, and people have left and tea has been forgotten, let alone five years. There are not many people I know in the department store now, so it's useless to ask me."

"You really don't care?"

Lu Hongjun glanced at him and said, "I can't even take care of my own affairs, let alone other people's affairs."

Tang Sufen didn't believe him, but saw that he was impatient and didn't ask any more.
