Upon hearing that the powder could indeed cause infertility, Sheng Jinjin felt reassured.

But worried that the doctor would ask too many questions, he lied and said, "My parents couldn't have a son, so they sought out folk remedies everywhere, which ruined their health."

"I just brought them here for a check-up, but I never expected that they would have gotten sick from taking folk remedies."

The doctor disagreed, saying, "If you feel unwell in the future, come to the hospital. Don't take medicine randomly anymore."

Those folk remedies can sometimes be fatal.

Sheng Jinjin pretended to be extremely grateful and asked the doctor not to tell anyone, since in those days many people would take any medicine indiscriminately in their quest for a child, but they all cared about their reputation.

The doctor didn't say anything, only advising her not to take medicine indiscriminately like Zhang Dahua and the others.

Sheng Jinjin gave a perfunctory reply and went back.

Zhang Dahua still remembered this incident and asked her, "What did the doctor say?"

Sheng Jinjin lied to her, saying, "She said you can't have children because you've been taking the wrong medications."

"I suspect some folk remedy caused the problem and harmed your health, which is why you can't have children."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dahua immediately thought of several folk remedies, "It must be Zhang Pozi's cow urine remedy that caused this."

The old woman said that drinking bull urine would definitely result in having a son, so she endured the nausea and drank it.

I didn't want to eat for a whole month after drinking it.

I guess he got sick from drinking that.

I regret it now.

Sheng Jinjin comforted her, "It's all in the past. Now you have a grandson. We'll take good care of him and he'll take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die."

"Besides, I've already bought the shop. Once it's open, you and my dad will be the bosses. Then you'll finally see the light at the end of the tunnel."

Zhang Dahua was overjoyed. "Good, good, good. Mom knows you're filial, and she knew you'd be good to us."

It wasn't for nothing that they toiled like slaves in the Zhu family; they've finally been able to own a shop and become their own boss.

Sheng Jinjin was mainly afraid that the employees she hired would embezzle money from her store, which is why she sent Zhang Dahua and her husband.

Anyway, they all need to rely on her now, so they don't dare to be greedy.

Even if she takes it all, it'll still be her money eventually, so it's better to sell it to them.

Sheng Dahu was overjoyed to hear that a shop would be opened for him, and he drank a few extra glasses of wine that night.

However, the child still needs to be taken care of.

Sheng Jinjin hired a nanny for them and asked Zhang Dahua to keep an eye on her. From then on, someone would help them with laundry, cooking, and taking care of the child.

They can manage the shop and take care of their children at the same time.

Sheng Jinjin also spoke to Granny Zhu, saying that she felt more at ease having her own people in the shop.

They also told Granny Zhu that the money Zhang Dahua and her husband earned was all for their grandson, and only then did Granny Zhu have no objections.

Besides, hiring a nanny would be good, so people wouldn't say she doesn't treat her in-laws like human beings.

But why is the nanny a man?

This man is Wang Dao.

Sheng Jinjin felt that instead of letting Wang Dao hide outside, it would be better for him to come to the Zhu family.

Otherwise, she wouldn't feel comfortable leaving her child with someone else.

Moreover, Wang Dao looks quite old and has a slight limp. When he's not dressed up, he looks a full twelve years older than Sheng Jinjin.

No one would ever find out that he had an affair with Sheng Jinjin.

The main reason Sheng Jinjin summoned him to the Zhu family was to merge with Wang Dao and swallow up the Zhu family.

Wang Dao naturally harbors ambitions.

He didn't care about the Zhu family's small amount of money. After all, he used to make a lot of money with Boss Hua by running gambling dens, restaurants, and nightclubs.

But now there is a shortage of funds, and there is an urgent need for money to recruit more people.

Otherwise, he would be outnumbered and outmatched, and his chances of defeating Boss Hua would be slim. He would have to start by taking money from the Zhu family.

He planned to start with Mr. Zhu.

First, gain Mr. Zhu's trust, then help him close several big deals.

Gradually, Mr. Zhu came to regard him as a capable assistant, and from then on, he could easily control Mr. Zhu.

At first, Granny Zhu disliked Wang Dao very much.

They even said to Sheng Jinjin, "Why did you hire a man instead of a woman as a nanny?"

He was also lame.

Sheng Jinjin had already prepared an excuse, "Mom, you don't know, this man used to own a big restaurant, and it's said that his ancestors owned a money exchange, so he has a very deep pocket."

"However, my family later fell into poverty and went bankrupt, so I had to go out and work."

“I saw how down on his luck he was, so I only paid him eighty yuan a month, but I included room and board, and he agreed.”

"Think about it, nannies aren't cheap these days. They do laundry, cook, and take care of the kids. It must cost at least two or three hundred yuan a month, right?"

"Giving him eighty is already a bargain."

"Besides, he's good at business, so maybe he'll get along with my dad."

Upon hearing that he was good at business, Mr. Zhu chatted with Wang Dao for a few minutes.

Wang Dao concealed the sinister glint in his eyes and acted with the refined elegance of an upper-class person, chatting amiably with Mr. Zhu.

Mr. Zhu was troubled by several difficult problems and didn't know what to do, but after Wang Dao's explanation, he suddenly understood.

Wang Dao even taught him how to undermine someone's efforts and how to make a profit without offending anyone.

Mr. Zhu was overjoyed to hear this.

"Brother, although you're a bit younger than me, you're quite knowledgeable."

Wang Dao humbly stated, "When I was young, I did travel all over the country and do a lot of business, but the bigger the tree, the more the wind blows, and I also made a lot of enemies, so now I just want to live a peaceful life."

Mr. Zhu understood after he said that.

They've come to seek refuge.

Mr. Zhu was cautious after all and did not keep him at home.

But we'll also rent him a house and do him a favor.

Every few days, he would go to Wang Dao for a drink and ask him for advice on some difficult problems.

Wang Dao always managed to come up with solutions, helping him resolve many problems.

Sheng Jinjin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Wang Dao had gained Mr. Zhu's trust.

It seems Wang Dao is indeed quite skilled.

As long as Boss Hua comes back, I don't believe Wang Dao can't deal with him.

She will have to get back all the money that the boss cheated her out of.
