Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 83: Put a Stop To It

In the , at right about this time, the original Mu Jingzhe followed that woman over to her recruitment.

When that woman from Little Eastern Village came back, she was dressed in fine clothes and expensive jewelry, looking like she was living a good life. However, she was actually just a prostitute. After working in the sex trade for so many years, she was already at the end of her rope.

Now that she was no longer young and wanted to earn money, she turned her attention to the pretty young women who had no one to depend on and were easy to control.

Once those young girls went there, they would be in a quagmire for the rest of their lives, never fated to escape from it. This was how the original Mu Jingzhe had been tricked and ruined.

After all, once a girl went there, she would be plunged into hell. Everyone wanted their dignity, so the girls who were duped into going didn’t dare send back news to expose this, and this had allowed that woman to succeed time and again.

Knowing that she would face a fire pit if she went, Mu Jingzhe naturally didn’t want Li Fang to go, nor did she want anyone to be duped again.

Now that that woman had returned, she had to resolve this to prevent future trouble.

“Li Fang, actually, I’ve always had my suspicions about people making a lot of money at the so-called factory. This is because when a factory recruits workers, even if they only hire female workers, the age requirement generally isn’t so strict.

“Everything else aside, being 30 years old ought to be fine. However, this so-called factory hires only girls and married women who are young and beautiful. As for the rest, that woman will say they didn’t make the cut. Don’t you find it strange?”

Mu Jingzhe’s words stunned Li Fang. She had never thought of this before, nor had anyone else in the village.

They’d only heard and seen those girls go out to earn money. The girls who went there would subsequently bring back good stuff and send money back every year. They all thought that it was a good job.

It wasn’t like everyone was stupid, but their knowledge was limited, which in turn limited their ability to think about any problems until Mu Jingzhe exposed this.

“Jingzhe, are you saying that her job isn’t proper?” action

“I have no evidence. After all, I’ve never been there before, but I don’t think it’s normal, so my guess is that it’s not a proper job.”

Mu Jingzhe shook her head. “We can’t trust people blindly just because they’re from the same village or we know them. On the contrary, we should be more vigilant and cautious in that case. That’s why you have to gain a better understanding of the job before going. Since she claims that the factory is hiring, shouldn’t we investigate the factory’s information and some other aspects?”

Nowadays, news was outdated, and there were many cases of people being scammed. Mu Jingzhe really didn’t want anyone to make the same mistake and have their life ruined.

These young ladies genuinely wanted to work hard and earn money.

Li Fang was convinced by Mu Jingzhe. The impulse in her heart was completely suppressed by her rationality. She couldn’t be rash just because she wanted to escape.

“Then I’ll ask around. If there’s a problem, we can’t let this continue.”

“Mm.” Mu Jingzhe nodded.

“I won’t say your name when the time comes,” Li Fang promised.

“It doesn’t matter. I don’t care if you do.” Mu Jingzhe wasn’t afraid. Even if that woman didn’t come looking for her, she would.

Now that she had taken over Mu Jingzhe’s body, she had to take revenge for the original owner. In her previous life, the tragedy of Mu Jingzhe’s family had been directly linked to this woman.

The swift and decisive Li Fang went to inquire that very day. Before she got to the bottom of this, she shared her suspicions. The news spread very quickly.

Everyone was discussing this matter, but the families who had previously sent their young daughters or wives there were naturally unwilling to believe it and said that Li Fang was spouting nonsense.

However, everyone was still afraid when they heard that. The few young ladies who had originally been hesitant to go immediately decided not to.

As the news spread throughout the village, everyone was fervently discussing this among themselves.

The woman from Little Eastern Village’s heart jumped when she heard that. She was originally a little flustered, but later on, she heard that it was Li Fang who had spread that information. Because of her older sister, Li Fang’s reputation had been ruined long ago.

Besides, Li Fang seemed to have suddenly started spreading this rumor after going to look for Mu Jingzhe.

Although Mu Jingzhe said that it didn’t matter, Li Fang kept her promise and didn’t say anything about Mu Jingzhe. However, one could still find out about this after asking around.

When the woman from Little Eastern Village heard that she was a young widow, she came straight to her door.

She was still counting on this as a source of money in the future. She couldn’t let these two women ruin it.

“Mu Jingzhe, Li Fang, come out!”

She had gathered her family and the family members of the young women she had previously recruited before she’d come knocking on Mu Jingzhe’s door.

“Do you think you can spout nonsense just because you have a mouth? How dare you slander someone when you don’t know anything about them? Come out immediately and make things clear.”

As soon as Mu Jingzhe came out, the woman charged up angrily, wanting to intimidate her.

She was wearing a red dress and high heels. Her hair was permed up, and she looked aggressive. Anyone who didn’t know better might have been intimidated.

When Shao Dong came out of the room and saw her, he thought that she was going to hit someone. Without thinking, he rushed over and stood in front of Mu Jingzhe, just like he had always stood in front of his younger siblings in the past.

Mu Jingzhe was stunned for a moment before she quickly pulled him back. “Be careful, Shao Dong.”

Shao Dong opened his arms and looked at the curly-haired woman vigilantly. It was only then that Mu Jingzhe realized that Shao Dong wanted to protect her.

Mu Jingzhe’s mood instantly became complicated as she looked at the top of Shao Dong’s head.

Shao Dong knew that she had immense strength, but he still instinctively protected her. This child was really heartwarming.

Mu Jingzhe was touched and couldn’t help but lift Shao Dong up and set him aside. “Be good. Move aside so you don’t get hit.”

Shao Dong was stunned when he was picked up.

He was still thinking that he was the man of the family and should protect his family no matter what. His heart was filled with pride. Why was he suddenly… lifted?

Only when he was put aside did Shao Dong realize that he was being treated as a child!

Shao Dong’s little face stiffened. Mu Jingzhe stroked his head and said, “I’m not afraid. Don’t worry.”

Upon saying that, Mu Jingzhe looked at the other woman, who had her arms crossed and was exuding an imposing aura. “What did I say wrong? You weren’t clear to begin with.

“If you’re not convinced, tell me in front of everyone. What is the name of the factory you’re recruiting people for, its exact address, and what kind of goods are produced there? How many people are working in the factory? Why are you only hiring female workers under the age of 25?

“Also, which position are you holding? Are you in the Human Resources Department, or are you just a worker? Why do you have the right to hire people? Do you call the shots?”

When the curly-haired woman had come to make a fuss, everyone had come over to take a look. As soon as Mu Jingzhe finished speaking, everyone turned their gazes to the curly-haired woman and waited for her to explain.

Curly-haired woman: “…”

A trace of sheepishness flashed past her eyes.

Why did this Mu Jingzhe know so much? Why would she ask such questions?

In the past, she had felt that she had been to a big city and seen the world. She’d always looked down on the people in the village and just spouted whatever lies came to her mind. It’s not like they would know the difference anyway.

Of course, she had never told them the exact name and address of the factory. She would always reply that even if she told them, they wouldn’t know it. She would just cook up lies to make up for any details.

Just as she was about to use the old method to deal with her, she saw Mu Jingzhe wave her hand to get Shao Dong, who was watching her anxiously, to come over.

“Shao Dong, write down the factory address and any other information she mentioned. I’ll ask around later.”

After saying that, she motioned for the woman to continue. “Go ahead and speak.”

The curly-haired woman was used to being arrogant, but this time, she had kicked an iron plate. After hesitating for a moment, she could only start making things up.
