Chapter 132 Inquiry

"He's in the military." Xu Sui only said this much before changing the subject and silencing Zhang Qiuxia with another question.

"Sister Qiuxia, I'm not quite sure how to handle these documents. Could you please explain them to me in more detail?"

Zhang Qiuxia was about to ask, "What's your husband's position in the army?" but she was immediately stopped and couldn't continue asking. She could only answer Xu Sui's question first.

"Okay, I've checked all these documents carefully, especially..."

However, she couldn't help but have some doubts.

It's possible the man is in the military.

Several officers from their grain depot had transferred to civilian work, one of whom was Hong Tao, the deputy director of their logistics department.

If Xu Sui's husband really is in the military, and if he has a good relationship with the leader of their grain station, it's not impossible for him to get his wife into the grain station.

Judging from this, Xu Sui's husband must hold a high position in the military. Putting aside everything else, he should be eligible to accompany his wife to the military. So why doesn't she go and accompany him? Wouldn't it be better for the couple to stay together?

Zhang Qiuxia became more cautious. Before she could figure out Xu Sui's background, she decided to be extra careful with her and avoid offending her.

I spent the morning in the purchasing department, getting a quick overview of the workflow.

Xu Sui noticed that Zhang Qiuxia was more enthusiastic and attentive than when they first met, and she would take every opportunity to inquire about her family situation.

She didn't say much, only vaguely revealing that she married someone in the military, and said almost nothing else.

Soon, it was lunchtime.

Zhang Qiuxia left work early to go have dinner with her husband, and almost everyone else also left work early to go to the cafeteria.

Xu Sui took her lunchbox and followed the group to the canteen at the grain station.

On the way, some people even started running with their lunchboxes, whispering excitedly, "Hurry up, hurry up, it's Monday today, the cafeteria has braised pork, but not much, it'll be gone if you go late."

"Really? Then we'd better hurry."

Upon hearing this, Xu Sui's eyes lit up slightly, and she silently quickened her pace.

She also wanted to eat braised pork.

The grain depot's canteen has several service windows.

There are cheap ones, expensive ones, and moderately priced ones, but they all offer great value for money. Even the most expensive braised pork is cheaper than what you can buy elsewhere.

Xu Sui didn't deprive herself of food, going to wherever there was meat to eat.

The purchasing department staff are mostly people with connections. They leave early; when they leave, she leaves too, never staying a second longer.

So she arrived at the cafeteria relatively early and managed to snag the last serving of braised pork.

Meat dishes are limited in quantity, sometimes only a few dozen servings a day. If you arrive early, you can get them; if you arrive late, they're gone.

Xu Sui not only managed to snag a serving of braised pork, but also a meat bun and a large steamed bun, as well as a bowl of vegetable soup.

The lunch was quite good.

The piping hot braised pork looks like it just came out of the pot; it's still steaming hot and smells delicious. One bite and it's fatty but not greasy at all.

The meat buns were quite large, and the meat sauce inside was very fragrant; you could smell it from afar.

The large white steamed buns are fluffy and soft, and smell delicious.

She really liked the food at this cafeteria.

The others arrived late.

Xu Sui wasn't as lucky. Especially when she saw that the braised pork and meat buns were all gone, she couldn't help but sigh and obediently went to another window to queue up.

Most of the other stalls offer vegetarian dishes, some with a little oil, but not much oil, and certainly not as good as meat.

Xu Sui glanced at it briefly; most of the dishes were braised potatoes, shredded potatoes, stewed vegetables with tofu, steamed corn bread, and pickled vegetables…

Although it's a vegetarian dish, it looks quite oily, unlike at home where sometimes there's no oil at all.

The first day at work was relatively easy. Apart from getting familiar with the job and having people occasionally ask about her situation, there wasn't much else to do.

Most of the people in the purchasing department leave work on time, and some even leave early.

Soon, it will be time to get off work.

With more than twenty minutes left before the end of the workday, Zhang Qiuxia hurriedly packed her things, picked up her cloth bag, and was about to leave when she suddenly remembered something as she reached the door.

Back in the office, he went to Xu Sui's workstation and gently tapped on her desk.

"Xiao Xu, I'm going to pick up the kids now. If you need anything, you can leave a little earlier. It's no trouble, and usually no one will say anything."

These words, though seemingly a reminder, are actually an implication.

If Xu Sui wants to leave, she can leave work early now.

After saying that, Zhang Qiuxia left work early without waiting for Xu Sui's reaction.

Xu Sui glanced at the other people in the purchasing department, and one by one, they began to leave.

Seeing that everyone else was leaving, she decided to leave work early as well.

The weather is getting colder as autumn approaches.

As I walked out of the grain station and onto the road, the cold wind blew straight down my neck, making my hair all messy and constantly obstructing my vision.

We haven't gone very far yet.

Suddenly someone stood in front of Xu Sui, blocking her way. She tried to go around them, but the person blocked her way again.

"Old classmate meeting again, Xu Sui, aren't you going to say hello?"

Xu Sui couldn't really see who was blocking her way, mainly because the wind was too strong, causing her hair to constantly obstruct her vision.

Upon hearing the voice, she couldn't immediately recall who it was. Looking up, she recognized her old classmate—the same classmate she had taken the exam with at the textile factory.

"Hello, old classmate. I've said my greetings. I have something to do, so I'll be going now." Xu Sui greeted him politely and walked past Wang Jianli.

The next second, the man suddenly caught up with her again, staring at her already showing belly and letting out a few ambiguous sneers. "You're pregnant. Where's your man? Why isn't he with you?"

"It seems he doesn't care about you that much."

Xu Sui ignored him and continued on her way.

There are some people who get more excited the more you pay attention to them.

In my memory, Wang Jianli was that kind of person.

However, the other person seemed different. Xu Sui ignored him, but he still followed her. "You're pregnant, why do you still have to go to the textile factory to take the exam? Is it because your husband can't even support his wife and child, and you have to go out to work to earn money?"

What kind of good man could that be?

"Xu Sui, how come your taste has gotten so bad? You've found a man like that."

"If you had been with me back then..."

Xu Sui paused, immediately interrupting the other person, "Wang Jianli!"

"If you can't swallow that anger, you can calculate how much money you spent over the years, and I can pay you back."

The man who followed behind paused for a moment, then stopped talking about it and muttered a few words.

"Do you think everyone is like you, just after money?"

"I'm not that shameless. That money is gone, and I'm not going to ask for it back."
