The meeting gift was so heavy that Song Hongguo was not very happy. She motioned to Ling Zhi to put it away, "Here it is, just take it and use it as pocket money."

"This is too much."

"Keep it and spend it slowly."

Ling Zhi thought to herself that she was the only one who could be so generous and trusting to her children, "Thank you, Mom, I'll save it and buy books later."

Song Hongguo said casually, "If I give it to you, it's yours. It's your business to spend it how you want. Mom won't interfere with this. You and Xiaoyuan can make your own arrangements."

Ling Zhi said "Yeah", his eyes flashing with light and smile. Anyone who is given such trust and freedom by his parents will be happy. He couldn't help but curiously asked, "Mom, how much did you and Uncle Huo give? "

Song Hongguo didn't hide it from him, "It's five yuan for each of us."

They want to make it perfect.

Ling Zhi nodded, judging from the total, it seemed that the Wu family gave more, but they had two children here, and the Wu family only had one, Wu Tiantian, so after careful calculation, they gave more generously.

Song Hongguo didn't care about these things. What she cared about was Wu Derong's attitude. Seeing that Li Qingxiu went out and didn't come back, she asked Wu Tiantian, "Is your father usually so busy at work?"

Wu Tiantian ate the sugar-roasted chestnuts she brought, and said in a childish tone, "Sometimes I am busy, sometimes I am not. Dad doesn't have much time to eat at home."

Hearing this, Song Hongguo's eyes flashed, "Your dad gets off work very late?"

Wu Tian nodded sweetly, "It's almost seven or eight o'clock. We'll all have finished eating by then."

"So you and mom are the only ones eating together at home?"

"No, there are also grandma and sister-in-law..." After a pause, she wrinkled her face and said, "Sometimes there are two brothers. They are picky eaters and always dislike the food cooked by their mother."

"It's not good to be picky about food. Doesn't your grandma care about them?"

"No matter what, grandma will just ask mom to fry eggs for them, and the two brothers will stop being picky after eating eggs."

"Then does your father know about this?"

"You should know, right? But dad is busy with work and seldom cares about family affairs."

"Does dad care about you?"

"Mom is in charge, dad is busy."

Song Hongguo's thoughts about this eldest brother-in-law were completely lost.

Huo Minglou squeezed her hand under the table and comforted her in a low voice, "We'll see when we meet the person. Maybe it's not what we thought."

Song Hongguo no longer had expectations.

In fact, she did not wrong the other party.

Wu Derong arrived late, and his first impression on Song Hongguo was not very good. He was not tall and average-looking, but he was quite decently dressed. He was wearing a crisp Chinese tunic suit, which gave him a lot of official authority. When he spoke, he also had a certain accent. He put on airs and wanted to use his identity as brother-in-law to persuade Song Hongguo to recognize the Li family.

If it weren't for Li Qingxiu trying her best to smooth things over and pleading with her eyes, Song Hongguo almost fell out. Finally, she stayed until the end of the meal. She said a few cold polite words and left with Huo Minglou and the child, regardless of Li Qingxiu's plea.

Back in the dormitory, Song Hongguo was still a little depressed. If she had known earlier, she would not have eaten this meal. She didn't have to make herself angry. She couldn't even digest it after eating it.

Huo Minglou, on the other hand, had a calm face and comforted her, "There's no need to be angry. We can't get along. From now on, we'll just stay far apart. If relatives don't move around each other, as time goes by, there won't be much contact." Song Hongguo said since He scolded, "I've caused trouble for you today, and you still have to look at his face."

Song Hongguo tolerated Wu Derong's high profile and official airs for the sake of Li Qingxiu, but Huo Minglou had no need to suffer from this anger. Moreover, he had always been arrogant and did not dare to say anything in the factory. He walked sideways, but no one looked at him. It was better at noon. Wu Derong didn't know where his face came from, and he pointed fingers at them.

When Huo Minglou heard this, he smiled and said, "How can this be considered a liability? Only people who care can make me uncomfortable. What does this Director Wu have to do with us? It all depends on your eldest sister. How can you deal with this? It’s just two, I won’t take it to heart at all, and we may not have anything to do with each other in the future.”

Song Hongguo frowned and said, "Not necessarily. Despite Wu Derong's high profile, as long as the two of us are of useable value, he will not be willing to cut off this relationship unless I cut off the relationship with the eldest sister."

Huo Minglou thought for a while, "You and your eldest sister don't need to break up. I think she still has some sincerity towards you. As for Wu Derong, one code is the same, and I think he is also a shrewd person who won't He has also seen your attitude this afternoon and knows that you are not a soft-spoken person. He will definitely restrain himself when we get along with you in the future."

Song Hongguo nodded. She couldn't control what the Wu family did to Li Qingxiu, but if he wanted to bully her, it would be a wrong calculation.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Do you know everything about Yang Rongyue?"

"I don't know much, what's wrong?" She couldn't tell him about the existence of the system, so she could only act blankly as if she didn't know anything.

Huo Minglou recounted Yang Rongyue's various reactions since he was captured, and finally said the same thing as the system, "She is now considered a traitor and separated from her relatives. No one can save her. It is useless for her to deny her life. Huang Ming I’ve rushed over from the reservoir and can testify this afternoon.”

"There are witnesses, but no physical evidence..."

"Yang Rongyue has a firm mind and refuses to let in oil and salt, but not everyone can do it."

Song Hongguo heard the implication, "The person who contacted her let go?"

Huo Minglou nodded, "Using him as a breakthrough point is enough to convict Yang Rongyue. Besides, there is also the crime of her being greedy for money. The evidence is conclusive and has been submitted. Even Han Cheng himself admitted it. Yang Rongyue was absolutely guilty this time. It’s impossible to turn around again, it’s just…”

"Just what's wrong?"

"She doesn't look desperate yet, as if she still has some trump cards left."

Seeing him frowning in confusion, Song Hongguo thought for a while and finally told him the truth, "Well, there's something I haven't told you because it's a bit embarrassing..."

"what's up?"

"Yang Jinzhi's child is actually not my biological father. She has always had a lover and has not lost contact with her for so many years."

Huo Minglou guessed something, "Who is that man?"

Song Hongguo whispered, "The second in command of the public security team, Sun Changyou."

Huo Minglou understood instantly, "Is this Yang Rongyue's trump card? Does Yang Rongyue know about this scandal? It can indeed be used to save lives at critical times."

Song Hongguo shook his head, "This trump card may not be used anymore. Sun Changyou's wife Zhang Hongmei went to Li's house last night. Li Maohai should have agreed to her request. He refused to admit it, and Sun Changyou refused to admit it. Then Yang Rongyue's threat was Framed.”

Huo Minglou frowned and said, "Zhang Hongmei can actually tolerate her husband's infidelity and still work for his scandal?"

"Do you know Zhang Hongmei?"

"I heard that the famous Iron Lady in the city is more capable and decisive than men. She has a brother who works in the province and has real power."

Song Hongguo said, "No matter how decisive a woman is, she will compromise for the sake of her children."
