Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57: Chapter 57: People to Thank

Jiang Cheng?

Looking for Jiang Cheng?

Lin Chengyuan’s superior bringing gifts to find Jiang Cheng?

The neighbors in the courtyard stopped moving, turning their bodies upright, pretending to be busy with this and that.

Some even sighed inwardly: There are lively scenes every year, but this year there are especially many!

As soon as Jiang Cheng’s name was mentioned, Lin Chengyuan’s face looked worse than if he had drunk poison.

Lin’s mother’s hands awkwardly hovered in the air, unsure whether to advance or retreat.

"Jiang Cheng calls me Grandma, we’re all one family."

The old, hypocritical Grandma Lin made her entrance with the aid of a cane.

"Damn it, stop saving face! She calls you Grandma? Who do you think you are? So shallow that as soon as you sniff something, you’re ready to pounce."

"You’re just talking nonsense like you eat lies for breakfast, not afraid of your teeth getting blown away in the wind!"

Li Chunxiang made her entrance once again.

Grandma Lin always considered herself a senior in the courtyard, maintaining her demeanor every day.

Now being cursed so rudely by Li Chunxiang, she banged her cane on the ground.

"The Li family, the matters of our Lin Family and Jiang Cheng are not for outsiders to discuss!"

Li Chunxiang cut her off with a snort, crossing her arms as she retorted: "We’re both old, don’t pretend otherwise. I’m an outsider, but you’re not even that! Besides, even I, an outsider, can’t stand the shameless Lin Family rushing in anytime they sniff a chance!"

Li Chunxiang’s disdainful face turned into a smile as she looked at Jiang Cheng, who was standing at the Shen Family’s door.

"Jiang Cheng, Auntie tells you, with a family like the Lin Family, if you weren’t useful, they wouldn’t have bothered to cozy up to you!"

"You’re young, don’t be fooled!"

Jiang Cheng was enjoying Li Chunxiang’s steady performance.

I must say, it’s quite satisfying to hear others scold the Lin Family!

Who would’ve thought a job recruitment exam message could yield such a big support, not bad, not a loss.

"Aunt Li is right, I have absolutely no connection to the Lin Family, this old lady should stop randomly claiming kinship."

Grandma Lin raised her hand to wipe her tears.

"Jiang Cheng, your words are too hurtful to grandma’s heart, grandma always treated you as family."

Jiang Cheng couldn’t be bothered to argue back and forth with the Lin Family, directly addressing Director Chen.

"Hello, I am Jiang Cheng."

"This old lady and the whole Lin Family have nothing to do with me, if anything, it’s an aversion. If they ever use my connections to ask you for favors, please don’t hesitate to sweep them out."

Jiang Cheng’s words made the fake crying old lady forget her tears.

How could she dare act like this?

In front of a big leader, shouldn’t one cherish their reputation?

Isn’t she afraid the leader will think she’s petty and not worth befriending?

Director Chen immediately nodded after hearing this: "I understand, Comrade Jiang."

"This is my wife, that’s my mother, we came today to thank you for saving my sister, sparing her from a tragedy."

After Director Chen spoke, Ms. Chen couldn’t hold back any longer and stepped forward, clasping Jiang Cheng’s hands.

Jiang Cheng could feel the trembling rough textures in her hands, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Thank you so much, really thank you! If the police hadn’t said the case wasn’t closed, I would’ve come earlier!"

"You saved our entire family!"

Ms. Chen was particularly emotional, Jiang Cheng reassuringly patted the back of her hand and said: "It’s alright now, everything’s fine."

The scene of gratitude was sincere, leaving everyone else puzzled.

What exactly did Jiang Cheng do?

While everyone was still figuring it out, more people arrived outside.

"Is Jiang Cheng living here?"
