Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 641 - 620: Little Sisters
When Ye Zi heard they had a holiday, she laughed happily with another friend. Now there were four of them; Lu Lu brought one person, Ye Zi brought another. They switched shifts every two days and it wasn’t tiring. During break time, they knitted sweaters at the orphanage.
"Xiao Ling, you came at the right time. Yesterday Brother Wu came to my house and offered a business deal. I’m planning to check out the fabric, let’s go together."
"Sure!"
The two finished checking the goods, tallied the accounts, and rode out on their bikes.
"What kind of deal?"
"Military division, a unit needs waterproof cotton coats. I need to check if last year’s fabric is still available; it’s roughly outfits for a hundred people."
"A hundred outfits? Isn’t that a bit too few?"
Lin Wan laughed, "Ah, you don’t understand. Being linked with the unit, if they’re satisfied this time, we won’t be lacking business prospects in the future. It’s all about thinking long-term. We’re going over to get fabric to make two sample pieces. We aren’t even sure if Brother Wu’s business will go through or not."
"Oh, it’s still not confirmed?" Su Ling looked worried; if it didn’t work out, they’d have been busy for nothing.
"It’s just some extra work. But if it succeeds, a unit has a lot of people. That’s quite something."
"Alright, alright."
In business, Su Ling and Yin Peibai couldn’t compare to Lin Wan.
The two of them went to the Textile Street and, sure enough, Old Li still had that kind of fabric but not much. Making a few dozen pieces shouldn’t be a problem.
Old Li also said that if they needed more, he could bring in the fabric in two days.
Lin Wan took the fabric and was heading home with Su Ling, ready to quickly produce samples for Brother Wu.
Who knew they’d run into someone familiar on the way.
That day, Ye Weijun took the address Liang Weixiang had given him for their son and went to find them. Who would’ve thought he wouldn’t even see a trace of Qiu Hualan, let alone Ah Qing.
After asking around, he found out this family just bought the house. Ye Weijun wasn’t foolish; upon inquiry, he discovered the previous house owner had the surname Ye.
Ye Weijun further inquired from neighbors and coincidentally asked Yang Erni.
Upon hearing he was Ye Qing’s dad, she quickly responded enthusiastically, "Qing is really something; why didn’t she tell you about moving? She got married back in the hometown a couple of years ago, gave birth but her husband didn’t come, so I helped care at the hospital for two days. Later, she had her mom come to take care of the child. Only then did Qing have a bit of ease. Later, they hurriedly moved. Why didn’t she explain the new address to you? Making you come all this way in the cold?"
"Married back in the hometown a couple of years ago?" Ye Weijun felt a sudden twist of bizarre expression, startling Yang Erni.
She quickly laughed awkwardly, "Yes, during New Year she went home, said she got married, and in a couple of months claimed she was pregnant. But then... before moving, something happened. I don’t know how to tell you."
Yang Erni deliberately said these things to Ye Qing’s dad. At first, she thought Ye Qing was a pretty decent girl, but she didn’t expect Ye Qing to be so unscrupulous, even deceiving neighbors like her.
She knew exactly what Ye Qing did; claiming to be married back home was just a cover-up to deceive the neighborhood.
That soldier wouldn’t be so kind-hearted just to take care of her for several days without a reason, even buying her a courtyard worth thousands.
They definitely had something going on, and that child was probably the soldier’s.
Initially, when Ye Qing said she was married, Erni saw a man visit her home once, and she thought he was Ye Qing’s husband from her hometown.
Later, when Ye Qing got into trouble, chatting casually with Lin Wan, she accidentally mentioned this incident. Lin Wan then said that the man was Ye Qing’s old lover.
This shocked Erni’s worldview; she hadn’t expected Ye Qing to be so deep, appearing so innocent and docile on the outside, but being so wanton in her nature.
If she had known earlier, she’d surely have secretly reported her for crimes of indecency.
Later she heard that Ye Qing got arrested, and it was because she wanted to marry that man; she deliberately slandered the man’s wife. In the end, her plan backfired, getting herself in trouble. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
That day, the man’s wife came over and shouted at the doorstep. The neighborhood heard everything, and only then did they know what happened.
Most neighbors thought the child was that man’s illegitimate child because the man’s wife said so too. But only Erni knew that the child belonged to the soldier.
The man’s wife thought the man was a fool.
However, Ye Qing’s mom was smart. When the incident happened, she immediately decided to sell the house and move away.
No one in the neighborhood knew where they moved, but Erni did.
That day, when helping them move, a middle-aged man came along. That uncle seemed quite earnest. While Qiu Hualan was inside tidying up, Erni purposely asked the uncle.
That’s how she found out they were moving to a big courtyard in the municipal construction bureau.
That was something only she knew.
"What happened?"
Yang Erni figured Ye Qing’s dad had a hot temper, and Ye Qing didn’t want her dad to know for this reason.
The more Ye Qing didn’t want her dad to know, the more Erni wanted to tell him.
Yang Erni was usually easygoing, but that didn’t mean she was easy to bully. Anyone who bullied her wouldn’t get away with it!
Initially, she helped Ye Qing so much out of goodwill, but Ye Qing turned out to be ungrateful.
"Qing got herself into trouble. I don’t get how such a nice girl would end up associating with a married man. She got jealous of the wife and accused the wife’s father in the bureau. The wife was well-connected in S City, and once she found out Qing was responsible, she turned the tables and sent Qing to jail. Qing’s mom worried about the impact, so she took the child and moved away."
Ye Weijun didn’t expect to gather such substantial information this trip to S City. Instead of his daughter thanking him for funding her college education, she got herself into jail.
And with what? Seducing a married man! Ye Weijun cursed those two shameless women; no wonder they were mother and daughter, both inherently troublesome and scandalous.
"Do you know where her mom moved to? The family has been worried sick for months, that’s why I braved the cold to come see them. Who would’ve thought it’s so cold here, just like entering an ice cellar? I didn’t bring much money, just got this address, thinking I’d see them when I arrived."
"Oh dear, couldn’t Qing at least inform you?" Yang Erni commented, clicking her tongue, noticing how thin Ye Weijun’s attire was. He’s been outside for so long, shivering all over.
"Uncle, my father-in-law has a few padded jackets; they’re good. If you don’t mind, I’ll get you one to stay warm."
"Thank you, thank you!"
Ye Hongjun was reluctant to spend money on clothing.
But he wouldn’t know that Yang Erni gave him her deceased father-in-law’s clothes. Since her father-in-law passed over two years ago, she hadn’t had the heart to throw the clothes away. She thought it’d be a waste to discard them, and they could serve other purposes well. Today, Ye Qing’s dad got a bargain.
Soon, Yang Erni brought out a set of thick black padded jackets and pants, kindly reminding, "I really don’t know where they moved because they were quite secretive about it, afraid the neighborhood would find out. But a middle-aged man helped Aunt Qiu move, and it seems to be somewhere near the municipal construction bureau, though I don’t know the exact location."
Yang Erni clearly felt Ye Qing’s dad’s face darken suddenly.
It was then that Yang Erni realized she might’ve said the wrong thing and perhaps Ye Qing’s dad misunderstood Aunt Qiu. But she didn’t care; those who are innocent have nothing to hide, and no one would believe untrue things.
Ye Weijun, holding his anger, returned to the guesthouse to change into those clothes before heading out again.
This time, he asked several people in order to find the way to the municipal construction bureau.
"What’s the matter? Why did you stop?" Su Ling saw Lin Wan staring in one direction, lost in thought, and pulled her to ask.
"Xiao Ling, I just saw Ye Qing’s dad."
"Ye Qing’s dad? Could it be he found out about his daughter’s troubles and came seeking revenge?"
Lin Wan laughed nonchalantly, "You’re not familiar with Ye Qing’s dad. Her dad is a real rascal from our village, idling around all day, loves drinking, and once drunk, he starts hitting people, especially Ye Qing and her mom. Ye Qing’s trouble? Her dad probably has no clue."
"Then what’s he here for?"
