She was robbed by the leader of the family and had three children.

Chapter 755 The Truth (2)

Ye Shu: "Because of food."

Zhao Jinhua: "Food?"

"Oh! So the food her family eats is all bought on the black market?!"

"I was wondering why I could always smell the aroma of meat, fish, and chicken coming from her house! I was wondering why I couldn't buy them when I went there, but she could always find them! It turns out she buys them on the black market!"

"So, she owed money like that? How could that be? There are only four people in her family, and Old Zhou mostly eats in the army cafeteria. How much can a mother and her two children eat? Did they eat so much that they owed so much that they had to come to their house to collect the debt? And they even caused a bloody scene and almost killed someone?"

Sister Jin: "You underestimate those people who secretly lend money. They're just making money and interest. Remember those hardest years? Some families couldn't afford food, so they borrowed on the black market, and the interest they ended up making was terrifying!"

"Some people have no choice but to pay with their lives!"

"Some families could only give up their heirloom yellow croaker, and ended up getting a steamed bun in exchange. This was a generous gift from the black market loan sharks!"

Obviously, everyone thought of those painful days and felt a little sad for a moment.

Zhao Jinhua nodded and said, "She's quite pitiful, but how come she doesn't even have money to buy food?"

"Things on the black market are more expensive, but they don't require tickets. She can't possibly be broke, right?"

Ye Shu gave the answer:

"She really has no money because her husband doesn't give her any of his salary or benefits. He only gives her the minimum amount for the family expenses, not a penny more."

Everyone sighed, it turned out to be like this!

No wonder she has to go to the black market to make money!

The money she earned was used to supplement her family expenses, so she had almost no extra money. So when the treasures in the slum were gone, she couldn't take them out to the black market to make a profit, so she could only buy them on credit!

As a result, the interest grew bigger and bigger, until people came to collect it.

Zhao Jinhua was indignant: "Why would her husband hide so much money? She is so pitiful!"

Like her man, although he is a little fierce, he will really beat her if he doesn't like her, but he has only beaten her once in all these years!

The key is, all the money he earns will be given to her!

As long as the money is spent at home, he won’t say a word!

Compared to this, her husband Zhang is so good!

Ye Shu: "Zhou Zhengmao sent all the rest of the money back home."

Everyone seemed to have immediately caught on to the gossip factor: "Hometown? Besides my mother, who else does his hometown need to support?"

Ye Shu: "You guys really guessed it right. You still want my sister and her child."

Sister Jin: "Sister? It's not what I thought it was, right?"

Ye Shu gave her an affirmative nod:

"It's just what you imagined. His family found her a child bride when she was young. She was a girl they picked up during the war, and they've been together since they were teenagers."

"That girl was three or four years older than him. At that time, the domestic situation was just beginning to settle down, and the systems everywhere were not perfect. When he enlisted, he said he had no women at home. And he was only seventeen or eighteen at the time. Who would have thought that he already had a wife and three children?"

What the hell!

What a shocking piece of news!

Mrs. Jin was furious: "This is simply an oversight in the organization's censorship system!"

Ye Shu didn't say anything. She thought about her identity before she came here. In Zhou Jianjun's hometown, wasn't her initial identity also his child bride? Didn't they also hold a wedding banquet, which was equivalent to getting married?

But Zhou Jianjun turned around and told the organization that he was unmarried and even applied for a marriage report.

She believed that if Huo Yisheng had not made any moves, he would have already made arrangements locally, and even if the organization conducted an investigation, there would be no loopholes.

His marriage report can be approved safely!

Back then, it was still possible to operate behind the scenes, let alone more than ten years earlier.

Zhao Jinhua's face wrinkled up: "Why do I feel so sorry for Chen Miao?"

Everyone: "..."

Sister Jin: "Your focus is quite unique!"

Ye Shu: "No wonder she stole your fish and you had no idea about it."

Zhao Jinhua was still sympathizing with poor Chen Miao and was about to say something, but upon hearing this, her expression immediately changed: "What?"

"What did you say? The one and a half fish that my family had at that time were stolen by her?"

Ye Shu nodded: "Absolutely true!"

Zhao Jinhua: "Bah! There must be something hateful about pitiful people!"

Everyone: "!!"

You change your expression really quickly!

So, Chen Miao’s matter was almost clear.

To sum up, it is indeed true that there must be something hateful about a pitiful person.

After a while, Zhao Jinhua asked again, "So, why couldn't she find the tomb robbers in the compound later?"

She didn't sympathize with her, she was just curious.

Mrs. Jin: "Is that even possible? They must have been taken under control by the soldiers stationed in the area!"

Meng Mingzhen: "So, where does the food on the black market come from?"

Ye Shu: "They robbed the grain that was transported to Wumu Town along the way. In fact, every year the government would transfer grain from various places to provide appropriate relief to Wumu Town."

"If the harvest is good here, we'll send less, and if the harvest is bad here, we'll send more, but there's probably never been a single instance where it was delivered safely here."

"At the beginning, we were really robbed because the people who delivered the food were some local young men who were temporarily organized. We couldn't fight them, so we gave up. Saving our lives was the most important thing."

"After a while, they became accomplices with the black market people. They were responsible for transporting the food here, and the black market people were responsible for selling it in Wumu Town. They pretended to be in a cooperative relationship, which could also reduce casualties."

However, there was a change of people here this year. After Huo Yiting came to power, he asked other places to use military or public security forces to escort food.

He had a plan in place and was just waiting for the robbers to take the bait!

Therefore, through actions from several aspects, the bad forces entrenched in Wumu Town were finally eradicated from top to bottom!

Zhao Jinhua sighed, "Will it be easier for us to buy food in the future?"

Ye Shu: "Yes, at least the purchase restrictions won't be so strict anymore, and everyone can eat their fill!"

This is good news!

Mrs. Tang: "It seems like a lot of people have been kicked out of various departments and units this time, leaving a lot of positions vacant. These past few days, people have been coming to me with requests. What do you think? Is there any job you'd like to do?"

She is Huo Yiting's lover. Before this, the local people did not take Huo Yiting seriously, and naturally they looked down on her as the leader's lover.

But now the situation has changed, the environment has changed a lot, everyone can understand the market situation, so one by one they begin to curry favor with her, Mrs. Tang's lover.

When it comes to things like arranging work, the first person I think of is her.

However, Mrs. Tang also has her own selfish motives. She must keep the good jobs for her own people.
