Chapter 135 Yes, that man doesn't want her anymore.
Their store manager promised that if they couldn't handle the job, they could be reassigned, or at the very least, they could work as cleaners, and they were sure they could do it.
How did I get fired so quickly?
"Why are you making so many mistakes at work? Is the job very complicated? If it really comes down to it, I'll talk to your store manager and ask them to transfer you to another position."
Fang Qing: "..."
"No, no, it's not their fault. It's my own fault. I've been affected by some rumors these days, and I keep getting distracted, which is why I made mistakes."
what?
"What gossip?"
Could it be that the rumors circulating here have spread outside?
Which bastard spread this rumor?
Old Wang's face darkened, and he exhaled two deep breaths from his nostrils.
He's quite intimidating when he's angry, after all, he was a soldier in his youth.
Fang Qing saw his expression change drastically and was too frightened to speak.
Seeing this, Old Wang put away his angry expression and said, "I'm not talking about you. I just think these people who spread rumors are really despicable."
Fang Qing swallowed hard, still feeling a bit shaken, nodded gently, and whispered, "It's Jiang Ting, the one who helped me keep watch over Chenchen a few days ago."
Ok?
Is that really the case?
"People outside don't understand the situation and are spreading really nasty rumors. As the saying goes, there's always gossip around a widow's door. It's also my fault for not being discreet and letting Jiang Ting stay."
She couldn't hold back her sobs as she spoke.
Old Wang wasn't afraid of the naughty kids; he'd just grab them and give them a good beating.
But where had he ever seen a young woman cry like that?
She already had a pitiful background and suffered misfortune, and now she has encountered this unexpected disaster.
This crying left Old Wang at a loss.
"Hey, don't cry. We can talk about any difficulties we're facing. There's no problem that can't be solved."
Fang Qing continued to sob with her head down.
Old Wang continued, "This isn't your fault. I know about Jiang Ting's relationship with Jianjun. Jianjun sacrificed himself, so Jiang Ting couldn't possibly abandon Chenchen. Chenchen was so seriously ill; he wouldn't feel at ease unless he personally took care of her. If anyone's to blame, it's him. He's a grown man who has no sense of propriety, causing you to suffer this undeserved misfortune."
Fang Qing shook her head, took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and said in a low voice, "This is not his fault. It is my fault for not taking good care of Chenchen and letting him get sick."
Lao Wang: "..."
"Oh dear, what child doesn't get sick sometimes? Don't cry, it's just rumors, I'll help you deal with it."
Fang Qing shook her head in alarm, "No, no, you've already helped me with so many things, how could I trouble you again? Besides, these rumors are different from job offers; they can't be resolved with just a few words. If things go wrong, they might spread even further. I've thought about it, I think I should go back to my hometown. Once I leave here, I won't be able to hear what people are saying about me anymore."
Old Wang: "Isn't this just running away?"
"These things are hard to explain, so let's just run away from them."
“Sigh, but what will you do when you go back? I remember you were bullied in your hometown, which is why you came here.”
When Lao Wang said that, Fang Qing started crying again.
"I just need to endure a few more years. Once Chenchen grows up, I'll be all set. It'll be alright."
"Your Chenchen is only in kindergarten. How can you expect to succeed in a few years? You might not even get ahead in ten years. Ten years is enough to kill a person."
Old Wang knew what it was like to be a widow in the countryside; he used to be from the countryside himself.
He remembered that Lu Jiangting and Wang Jianjun's hometowns were much more backward than his own.
The gossip about widows there is definitely much worse than it is here.
Although Fang Qing was a widow, she looked young and pretty. Not only did she have to endure the gossip of the elderly, but she also had to be bullied by local thugs.
He knew it all too well.
Thinking about it this way, he felt he couldn't go back to his hometown.
“Fang Qing, you and your child are both orphans, so you can’t go back to your hometown. You don’t need to ask Lu Jiangting about this; I’ll make the decision for you. You just stay here. As for the rumors…”
He paused for a moment, then patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I can help you solve this."
Fang Qing was skeptical.
After all, he had just said last time that he would introduce me to someone, and he had already hinted at it so obviously that it was Lu Jiangting.
There was no further news, and later he went to find Lin Yuyao.
This time when she came, he didn't mention the previous incident at all.
This made her afraid to trust him anymore.
However, she also knew that she couldn't get too entangled, or she would annoy people.
So he cautiously agreed and left.
After Fang Qing left, Lao Wang calmed down and realized he had agreed too readily. Upon reflection, he understood that this was indeed a thorny issue.
The soldiers here listen to him, but the aunties in the neighborhood don't.
If he goes around gossiping, he might get a scolding and be dragged into the mess.
These middle-aged women have the ability to make even a normally stinky poop stink.
But he had already promised, so he couldn't just leave it at that; he had to find out more about the situation.
The thought of having to deal with the older women gave Lao Wang a headache.
However, he still chose a time to go.
As soon as they arrived at the building, they saw several women knitting sweaters whispering to each other.
He stepped forward and asked directly, "Excuse me, ma'am, does Fang Qing live here?"
They didn't recognize him, so they asked, "What's your relationship to Fang Qing?"
who?
After thinking for a moment, Old Wang said, "I'm an elder in their family. I came here on some business and just happened to drop by to see her."
"elder?"
Old Wang smiled and said, "Yes, I am an elder in their family. It's not easy for her to make a living in this area on her own, raising her child alone. I just stopped by to take a look."
The women looked at Old Wang and saw that he was about the same age as them, maybe only a few years younger, so they figured he must be an elder.
They lowered their guard and started talking.
"Oh dear, Fang Qing? Poor thing."
Ok?
"Pitiful?"
"Yes, it's pitiful."
Old Wang: "What do you mean?"
"Fang Qing has a boyfriend, you know that, right?"
"Huh?" Old Wang looked surprised. "I don't know, I didn't hear her say that."
"This...oh dear, I didn't even tell my family about something this big. Look at the mess this has made." The other person sounded anxious, as if her daughter was secretly dating someone without telling the family.
Another older woman said, "Easier said than done. How could she say such a thing? It's not even settled yet. I think it's right that she didn't say anything, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing. That man doesn't want her anymore, and now she's been fired from her job with a son. Tsk tsk, she's so pitiful."
Lao Wang: "..."
"What happened? Did that man dump her?"
"Oh dear, you're her elder, you must seek justice for her."
