South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Chapter 379 Jin Yueji supports Zhou Bingyi

Jin Yueji fell silent, thinking carefully about what Zhou Bingyi had just said. If it were many years ago, she might have thought about the right and wrong of this matter from a rational perspective, but now she is just an old woman who is about to die. It can be said that there is nothing else in her heart but her two children, Hao Dongmei and Zhou Bingyi.

Zhou Bingyi is Hao Dongmei's husband, but also her son in her heart. If her son is bullied, shouldn't she, as a mother, help him out?

Although she had retired for many years, she still had connections in the province, and people would still listen to her. However, she did not intend to use these connections easily, because she left them for Zhou Bingyi to use in the future, and wanted to use these resources as a stepping stone for Zhou Bingyi to climb up in the future.

"Bingyi, don't worry. This investment is related to your political achievements and you can't just give up. How about this, tell me his office phone number and I'll call him tomorrow to meet him. Although I've retired for so many years, as a junior, he should give me some face."

"Mom, you don't have to come forward. If Daoli District doesn't work out, I will let the investor invest in another area. There is no need to alarm you." Although Zhou Bingyi was somewhat happy in his heart, he really couldn't bear to let Jin Yueji worry about him so much.

"Can other regions compare with Daoli District? This investment will only play the greatest role if it falls into Daoli District, and your political achievements will be further magnified. You don't have to worry about it, I will arrange this matter." Jin Yueji waved her hand.

Zhou Bingyi wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Jin Yueji's eyes.

"Okay then, thank you, Mom, but I have to tell you that Yuan Mu is not so easy to talk to."

"Don't worry, I'll handle it." Jin Yueji showed a confident smile on her face. In her opinion, he was just a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee at the department level. She didn't say that she didn't take him seriously. She was competing for seniority and she didn't believe that the other party would not give her, an old comrade, some face!

"Bingyi, the meal is ready, come and eat." At this time, Hao Dongmei also came out of the kitchen and put two plates of food on the dining table.

"Go and have your meal quickly, and then take a rest. I'll go upstairs first." Jin Yueji patted his shoulder and then stood up.

"Mom, please slow down." Zhou Bingyi nodded.

"kindness."

He walked to the table, picked up a bowl of rice and started eating. Needless to say, he was really hungry. He felt a lot less angry when Jin Yueji took charge of the matter.

"Eat slowly." Hao Dongmei showed a doting smile on her face.

"By the way, what did mom just say to you?"

"Oh, nothing, just some work stuff." Zhou Bingyi said casually.

"Okay, eat more of this. I made it myself." Hao Dongmei nodded without asking any more questions, but smiled and picked up some food for him.

. . . . . . . . .

The next day, Yuan Mu was sitting in the office reviewing documents when the phone suddenly rang. He didn't even raise his head, and Song Zian, who was helping to organize the information, answered the call directly.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Hello, are you Comrade Yuan Mu?" An elderly woman's voice came from the phone.

"Excuse me, do you have anything to do with Secretary Yuan?" Song Zian glanced at Yuan Mu and asked.

"Yes, I have something to discuss with Comrade Yuan Mu."

"May I ask who is calling?"

"My name is Jin Yueji, an old comrade from the early years of the revolution."

Song Zian frowned, but Yuan Mu on the side spoke.

"Who?"

Song Zian quickly covered the microphone.

"Leader, the other party calls herself Jin Yueji, and says she is an old comrade from the early years of the revolution."

Yuan Mu looked up suddenly. Who? Jin Yueji? Isn't this Zhou Bingyi's mother-in-law? Why did she call him? Yuan Mu had nothing to do with her!

Oh! He suddenly realized that Zhou Bingyi had told Jin Yueji about the investment, and this old lady was here to cause trouble today?

"Give me the phone!" Yuan Mu stretched out his hand. He wanted to see what tricks this old lady Jin would play.

Song Zian quickly handed the phone to Yuan Mu.

"Hello, I'm Yuan Mu!"

"Hello, Comrade Xiao Yuan, my name is Jin Yueji."

"Oh, I know you. You are an old comrade and senior who fought in the wars in the early years and followed the party all the way." No matter what, this Jin Yueji is indeed an old revolutionary, and the respect she deserves must be given.

As expected, Jin Yueji on the opposite side felt more confident when she heard Yuan Mu's polite words.

"Comrade Xiao Yuan, you are too polite. That was all in the past. We are all old. Now it is you young people's turn to lead the country forward." Since Yuan Mu gave her face, she had to give him some face in return.

"Mr. Jin, you are too polite. I wonder what is the matter with you calling me?"

"It's like this. I've heard about the development of Daoli District. During the revolution, I lurked behind enemy lines in Daoli District. The situation there was far worse than it is now. So I'm particularly curious about you. I don't know how long I can live in this old state. I wonder if I'll have the honor of meeting you?" Jin Yueji said with a smile.

Fuck! She's really good at making trouble. She never talks about the real business and only talks big and empty words. If it was someone else, he would really believe it. But he doesn't believe Jin Yueji at all. She must be here to speak for Zhou Bingyi and wants to pressure him by relying on her status as an old senior.

If it were someone else, they might really agree, after all, it was not a big deal. But it wouldn't work with Yuan Mu. This door couldn't be opened. If a door was opened with Zhou Bingyi, and other people came to him and made the same request in the future, would he agree or not?

However, having said that, Yuan Mu really wanted to meet Jin Yueji, the old lady Jin who looked down on the lower classes in "The World", to see how arrogant she really was!

Yuan Mu really looked down on people who were out of touch with the masses. Weren't you also a member of the lower class back then? Now that you have status and position, you start to look down on people of the lower class?

In fact, what Hao Dongmei said in the play was very true. The lesson they learned from that movement was really not enough!

How did Zhou Bingyi treat Hao Dongmei? At that time, the Zhou family was of good family background, but what about Hao Dongmei? Her parents were imprisoned in the cowshed, and her identity was very sensitive. If Zhou Bingyi hadn't protected her, Hao Dongmei might have been dragged out for criticism and it was uncertain whether she could survive. Oh, you guys started to look down on the Zhou family once you were rehabilitated?

Even though Zhou Zhigang is not a good guy and is vain, he is still your relative, right? In order to avoid seeing this poor relative, Hao Jinlong even went so far as to smell paint to induce an asthma attack. Is this something a human being would do?
