Chapter 35 Chapter 035

Cai Jun led Wu Lanying in and introduced her to everyone.They said hello to her, and Dong Yi greeted her warmly: "Miss Wu, come and see, please choose what drink you want, you are welcome." Wu Lanying took off her shoes and walked over, asking for a cup of malted milk with hot water.Mingyue was holding a book in her hand, and was chewing on an interesting passage she had just read, when she suddenly found a string of round water stains on the red floor, extending from the entrance to the living room, it was not Jiji’s. She searched unconsciously for the footprints, and finally found that the string of water stains ended under a pair of light gray socks. The insteps of the socks were dry, but the edges of the soles were wet.Mingyue looked up and saw that her new friend Wu Lanying's socks were wet. Wu Lanying's eyes seemed to have been waiting for her to finally find the answer to the mystery, she blinked contemptuously, and turned around holding her teacup.

Mingyue felt that her curiosity was not malicious, and there was no need to experience the other party's expression, so she lowered her head to read her book again. When Mr. Liu came home from work, he saw a room full of young people. He was also happy, and asked them if they had read the newspaper he edited recently, and if they had any thoughts or suggestions.Everyone was talking about it, but what they were talking about was actually childish. Only Miss Wu Lanying said in a moderate voice: "Aren't newspapers supposed to tell the truth?" "Newspapers can only tell the truth," Mr. Liu said.

"Your newspaper, last week's People's Livelihood section reported on the living conditions of workers in rubber factories in the suburbs." "That's right, this student has seen it?" "Yes, Uncle Liu. According to the report, the workers work nine hours a day, are paid three coppers a day, have uniform board and lodging, and can take a bath every two days." "This is what the workers personally provided during our interviews." "But they were told in advance that they could only talk like this, otherwise they would lose their jobs. The reality is that most of them have to work more than 14 hours a day, and the daily salary of three copper coins is not fake, but they are settled monthly. There is a possibility of being arbitrarily deducted because of sickness and leaving work at any time. Meal money comes from my own salary. Fourteen workers squeeze into a full bunk, and the kang is only started in the middle of the twelfth lunar month..." Wu Lanying was calm and calm, without any fluctuations , but these words are enough to make every well-fed child in this room secretly startled.

Mingyue keeps her head down. She has no experience with a daily salary of three copper coins, fourteen people sleeping in a bunk, and the cold and hard kang before the middle of the twelfth lunar month, but one can imagine how miserable it is. Mr. Liu was a little surprised, but also a little embarrassed. He smiled and asked Wu Lanying how he knew this. Wu Lanying said that it is not important how I know, what is important is whether you can ask someone to investigate in detail. At the end of the party at Liu's that day, Wu Lanying walked in the front.When Mingyue was sitting and putting on her shoes, she saw this stiff Miss Wu Lanying in a patched gown walking out the door. The front soles of her shoes had been worn through, revealing the light gray socks inside.

This Ms. Wu is really impressive, but Mingyue originally thought that what she said had nothing to do with her.Not long after, Nan Yi's father really asked his reporters to visit the rubber factory unannounced, and found that all the shady scenes of labor abuse were exactly the same as what Wu Lanying said.The newspaper immediately carried out a large-scale follow-up report on this incident, and this incident became the focus of discussion all over the city.One afternoon, Mingyue came home from school and saw Xianyu throwing the newspaper on another person's face outside his study, gritted his teeth and said, "It's so ugly!"
