Chapter 1636: A Thousand Yuan Dowry 2
Even though Feng Qingxue had already learned about Wang Xiuhua’s background and family situation from other military spouses, she still pretended not to know and asked Wan Xinguo how they found this place without giving any prior notice.
"We came to see the old man, only to find out Lu Jiang was reassigned here," Wang Xiuhua replied.
"The old man?"
Seeing the confusion on Feng Qingxue’s face, Wang Xiuhua shrugged, "That’s your unit’s Chief of Staff, Wang Ergouzi."
"Wang Ergouzi?" Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue said simultaneously, surprised that the Chief of Staff’s nickname was Ergouzi; they only knew his name as Wang Xianghong, a heart full of loyalty to the sun.
Wan Xinguo quickly added, "That’s the old comrade’s nickname."
"We naturally knew it was a nickname, but we didn’t expect Comrade Xiuhua to be part of the Chief of Staff’s family," Lu Jiang laughed, "So, does this mean you have to go back to the Chief of Staff’s tonight?"
Wang Xiuhua replied without hesitation, "Of course! My mother was driven to death by them, they want to get rid of me, no way! Each of their children spent several hundred yuan to get married, and now that I’m getting married, the old man has to pay!"
Wan Xinguo sighed, "My salary isn’t low, and I have significant savings."
"Money doesn’t come from nowhere; it’s earned through hard work. We can’t just let the old man off because we have money, or it’ll only benefit Xie Hongmei! Why should it benefit her? Why should it benefit the old man?" As Wang Xiuhua mentioned them, her teeth clenched, "I find that money filthy; giving it to the poor is like doing them a favor!"
