A charming widow in her 70s married a factory manager and raised his children.

Is Chapter 24 real?



Is Chapter 24 real?

Lin Wei rushed to the factory manager's office, knocked on the door, and upon hearing a voice telling her to come in, she quickly straightened her clothes and hair before pushing the door open.

"Director Lu."

Lu Congyue looked up at her: "Technician Lin? Is something wrong? Is there a problem with the machine?"

"No, no, it's not about the machine." Lin Wei waved her hand, looking serious. "Director Lu, Feng Wenhua and I just ran into your nanny when we went to the office."

Lu Congyue paused, put down his pen, and frowned as he looked directly at Lin Wei: "You met Comrade Zhuang? What was she doing at the time?"

Lin Wei's eyes lit up. Was Lu Congyue dissatisfied with the nanny?!

"Director Lu, I get so angry just thinking about this! She was the nanny you hired to take care of the children, but instead of staying home to look after them, she came to our factory and loitered around. I was so angry that I scolded her, and she still wouldn't listen!"

Lin Wei spoke with righteous indignation, but Lu Congyue's expression grew increasingly serious.

That woman actually started acting immediately, even running near the production technology department. What was she planning to do?!

"Director Lu, I don't think this can go on. She's so irresponsible; something bad could happen to the child!" Lin Wei paused, then tentatively suggested, "How about I come to your house to help? Firstly, I can keep an eye on the nanny, and secondly, I can make sure the child won't be mistreated. What do you say?"

Lu Congyue glanced at her and refused directly: "No need. You have to go to work during the day, and I can take care of the child when I get home after get off work. There's no need to trouble you. Just do your job well."

Lin Wei became anxious: "Director Lu, you're so busy and often work overtime. I'm free after work, so I can help you take care of things at home."

Lu Congyue said expressionlessly, "Technician Lin, if you have time, you should learn more technical skills. Don't waste your time on other people's children! Do you understand?!"

"How can it be someone else's child? It's yours... I'm willing..."

"Technician Lin!"

Lu Congyue's tone suddenly became stern, which startled Lin Wei.

After realizing what had happened, she was so angry that her eyes turned red: "Director Lu, I was only thinking of you. You let a widow live in your house... Do you know what people outside are saying? If you let me go and help, at least it can dispel these rumors."

"No need," Lu Congyue said coldly. "Go back to work!"

"You..." Lin Wei stomped her foot angrily, "You didn't really let that widow seduce you, did you? Director Lu, she has no good intentions at all, you can't be deceived by her..."

"Get out!" Lu Congyue shouted sharply, his eyes fixed on Lin Wei like sharp arrows.

"You...you don't appreciate kindness!" Lin Wei covered her mouth and ran out, afraid that she would burst into tears in front of Lu Congyue.

Lu Congyue rubbed his temples in frustration and left the office to find Niu Jianzhong to see if he had made any new discoveries.

Lin Wei ran a long way before stopping, rubbed her eyes, and stomped her feet angrily.

She was too hasty just now and must have upset Lu Congyue. She needs to find a way to make amends.

Just then, two women approached.

"Lin Wei, what are you doing here?"

Lin Wei quickly composed herself, trying to appear calm and collected, and smiled at the newcomers: "Sister Li, Sister Chen, what are you doing here?"

"We came here specifically to see you."

Li Shengnan leaned close to Lin Wei and whispered, "We heard what you said to the nanny at Factory Director Lu's house just now, is it true?"

Lin Wei's heart skipped a beat.

She was just angry and spoke too quickly without thinking. It would be terrible if Lu Congyue found out!

"That's right, Lin Wei, tell us quickly, did Factory Director Lu really get seduced by that widow?" Chen Yuhong also lowered her voice and asked mysteriously.

Lin Wei hurriedly shook her head: "No, don't misunderstand. What I said wasn't directed at Director Lu, I was warning that woman."

"We didn't say you were targeting Director Lu, we just wanted to know if it was true," Chen Yuhong chuckled.

"It's not true!" Lin Wei hurriedly said, "Factory Director Lu wouldn't even look at a rural widow like her. As for that widow... she moved into Factory Director Lu's house under the guise of taking care of the children, but she had ulterior motives. I'm not saying she did anything to Factory Director Lu, she's not worthy of him at all! I just think she has other ideas."

Li Shengnan asked, puzzled, "What are you thinking?"

Lin Wei snorted dismissively and lowered her voice, saying, "Think about it, at this hour she's not at home taking care of the children, but instead abandoning three kids to wander around, and deliberately choosing to go near the factory area. She's definitely trying to seduce our factory's single male employees!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Wei's eyes lit up.

That's right, that must be it. Otherwise, why would that bitch Zhuang Qingxiang come here to wander around? She must be looking for a new husband, to find a father for the two children she's with.

"What are her conditions? What are the conditions of our factory's employees? As long as she hooks up with one of them, she and her two children will never have to work in the fields and will never lack food or drink for the rest of their lives." Lin Wei curled her lips and said contemptuously.

Li Shengnan and Chen Yuhong agreed that this made sense.

Factory Director Lu is usually a stern and cold man, and most people wouldn't dare to make a move on him. I imagine that nanny named Zhuang Qingxiang wouldn't dare either, which is why she's wandering around trying to seduce other men.

"Country women are so cunning," Chen Yuhong retorted with a disdainful sneer.

Li Shengnan found it interesting: "If she really thinks that way, she's a smart person. I'm really curious if anyone in our factory will have a crush on her."

"How could anyone possibly be interested in a widow with two children?" Chen Yuhong exclaimed dramatically. "Unless they're an idiot!"

"There are no idiots in our factory," Lin Wei said with a smile.

The two of them were laughing so hard, but Li Shengnan started to ponder the matter.

She had just seen Zhuang Qingxiang. She was pretty and had a good figure. There might actually be someone who would take a liking to her. She remembered that there was a widower in the second workshop. Maybe they could really hit it off.

Li Shengnan thought she should find an opportunity to ask; if it worked out, she could also get a piece of meat.

The three of them chatted as they walked away.

Zhuang Qingxiang, who was airing out diapers, sneezed twice in a row.

Zhuang Qingxiang guessed that someone was talking about her behind her back, and it might even be Director Lu's girlfriend.

After Lin Wei's meddling, and unable to find a suitable place to stay, Zhuang Qingxiang sighed and began to miss the days when Director Lu was away on business trips.

When Lu Congyue returned in the afternoon, Zhuang Qingxiang had already prepared dinner.

Seeing that Lu Congyue's complexion was alright while eating, Zhuang Qingxiang mustered her courage and asked, "Director Lu, um... would it be convenient to install a door in the inner room?"

Lu Congyue was slightly taken aback.

Little Qian Yue couldn't wait to help explain: "If there's a door, we won't be afraid that Uncle won't be able to resist sneaking in at night."

"Yueyue!" Zhuang Qingxiang cried out in surprise and hurriedly covered the child's mouth.

Seeing Lu Congyue's face darken, Zhuang Qingxiang was so angry she didn't know what to do.

Hit the child? She couldn't bear to, so she could only scold him sternly: "What nonsense are you spouting, child?!"

Little Qian Yue was so frightened that her eyes welled up with tears: "That's exactly what Grandma Tian said..."
