Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 47: New Year

It's impossible not to be talked about behind her back, but Chu Xia didn't realize that the person in the office talking the most about her was Huang Tingyue.

"Her husband isn't at home and she dresses up every day. I have no idea what she's up to. If you ask me, she's just trying to attract the attention of the male workers."

There is an older sister who speaks for Chu Xia: "She's married, she's not the kind of person you're talking about, I don't usually see her talking to the male workers. But it's true that she loves to dress up."

Is it wrong to love to dress up?

If this were a few years ago, she might have been criticized for it directly.

Chu Xia didn't continue to listen, directly pushed open the door and went in. The voice ended abruptly, and the speaker's face showed an embarrassed look.

Chu Xia looked at Huang Tingyue, said expressionlessly: "Some things you can say to my face; talking behind my back won't change anything. The wise see the wise and the merciful see the merciful.  What kind of person you are will see what kind of person others are."

Huang Tingyue blushed and paled as she was scolded. No one came to help her to speak, they all lowered their heads and seemed to be busy with their own business.

They just like to talk behind others' backs, and when they were caught, they didn't dare to say anything directly.

Chu Xia and Huang Tingyue had a complete falling out in the office.

Of course, Chu Xia never thought of her as a friend; they only used to exchange a few words. Now, they didn't even do that.

It worked out well for Chu Xia since she could work quietly and mind her own business. New Year's Day was just a month away, and they were all busy preparing for the holiday programs.

The propaganda department and the labor union are in charge of it, and with more people, there was more talking, and the progress slowed down. But this didn't affect Chu Xia much; she is just a small minion, responsible for following orders.

Only because of her strained relationship with Huang Tingyue, work cooperation might be a little unpleasant. However, it didn't impact the overall situation, and Chu Xia didn't mind that much. It was Huang Tingyue who was feeling uneasy.

"Chu Xia, organize the number of clothing loans and returns."

"Okay."

Chu Xia took the record book and went to each person in charge of borrowing and returning costumes. When she reached Huang Tingyue, she paused.

"I don't know, you go ask the person performing." She said, while organizing the costumes with an uncooperative expression.

Chu Xia: "You don't know how many costumes you lent out? You don't know if they've been returned either?"

Huang Tingyue's face stiffens for a moment, "I don't know."

Chu Xia doesn't ask her anymore and directly writes in the record book, Huang Tingyue: Number of costumes borrowed and returned is unknown.

Then the data record book was handed in, and Huang Ting Yue was called over by the department head to talk.

Soon, she returned in tears and slammed the record book on Chu Xia's desk. "Did you do this on purpose? The costumes are right there; couldn't you count them yourself?"

Chu Xia looks at her with an amused expression, "You're the one who knows the numbers for borrowing and returning. I need you to tell me so that I can verify them. If you don't say anything, how can I know?"
