Chapter 102 Moving Out of the Family Compound (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Tsai Chin-chin barely slept all night.

The next two days passed peacefully, and Tsai Chin-Chin gradually forgot about the incident, going from being terrified at the beginning to being unmoved later on.

Tsai Chin-Chin's arrogance grew stronger day by day, and she still looked at everyone with displeasure.

On the third day, news came from Shenjiang that the approval had been granted and Cai Qinqin could leave the family compound.

Tsai Chin-Chin was dumbfounded, muttering "Impossible."

"I've been perfectly fine, why are you targeting me like this?" Cai Qinqin retorted to Shen Jiang. "Have you been bribed by Hong Lanlan? Are you deliberately targeting me?"

Shen Jiang was too lazy to explain to her, and specifically instructed, "I'll give you two days to leave here, otherwise I'll arrange for someone to come and help you personally."

"No, I don't want to leave here. Xiaohu is so young and can't cook at all. Wang Shuncai is busy all day long and can't possibly take care of himself. What will happen to them if I leave?"

Shen Jiang reassured her, "There's a cafeteria that provides meals, so you don't need to worry about that."

"Who will wash their clothes? Who will sweep the floor? How can they manage without a woman around?" Cai Qinqin found all sorts of reasons to stay no matter what.

She couldn't let the other people in the family compound see the spectacle.

Shen Jiang, with a serious face, deliberately reminded him, "The approval has already been issued. If you don't move out, it's tantamount to disobeying military discipline, and you will be punished."

Tsai Chin-Chin sighed dejectedly, feeling extremely sad.

Wang Xiaohu came out of his room and asked curiously, "Uncle Chen, can I come to your house for dinner when my mom isn't home?"

He still couldn't forget the things in Xu Qingmo's house.

Shen Jiang said, "I'll bring you some food when I have time."

Wang Xiaohu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly urged Cai Qinqin to move the things quickly.

If Tsai Chin-Chin continues to stay here, Chen Jiang definitely won't send any more delicious food.

"Mom, hurry up and pack whatever you need. I remember you don't have much stuff here; most of it is back in our hometown. It won't be long before we get home."

Tsai Chin-chin's eyes welled up with tears of grievance. The child she usually loved the most was the one who most wanted her to leave at this moment.

She chuckled self-deprecatingly and plopped down in a chair. "I'm not leaving. I'm waiting for Wang Shuncai to come back. He certainly doesn't want to leave from here either."

"Mom, don't wait for Dad anymore. You two had a fight yesterday, and Dad wants to be alone for a while." Wang Xiaohu's words were full of anxiety as he tried to get Cai Qinqin to leave.

I wish I could bring up the entire conversation we had last night.

A large crowd had gathered at the entrance to watch the spectacle.

Cai Qinqin was used to being arrogant and domineering in the family compound, which offended many people.

Now that they've finally gotten through this difficult time and can send her away, everyone is beaming with joy.

"Shut up! When did your father and I ever quarrel?" Cai Qinqin tried to cover Wang Xiaohu's mouth, but he quickly hid behind Shen Jiang.

Wang Xiaohu poked half his head out and spoke again, "You two have been arguing every day lately, and I can't sleep because of it. Mom, can you go back to your hometown soon?"

“Before, Tsai Chin-Chin said that she loved Wang Xiao-Hu the most, but listen to this: Wang Xiao-Hu is the most impatient with Tsai Chin-Chin. I think Tsai Chin-Chin is just putting on an act in front of everyone.”

"That's right. They're not her biological children. She acts all good to Wang Xiaohu just because she doesn't want people to call her a heartless stepmother."

"What happens behind closed doors is known only to the family. Just like how Cai Qinqin and Wang Shuncai argue every day, even I, as their neighbor, don't know. If Wang Xiaohu hadn't just brought it up, who would have known?"

"That's right, that's right. A stepmother is a stepmother after all. She would never treat a child born to another woman as her own."

One after another, people at the door complained that Tsai Chin-Chin was a good actress.

Cai Qinqin glared at them fiercely, "Who gave you permission to talk nonsense in front of my house? If anyone dares to say anything more, I'll pull out their tongue."

When Tsai Chin-Chin shouted that, the onlookers scattered.

Tsai Chin-chin remained steadfast in her stance, refusing to move no matter what.

Wang Xiaohu even went up to her and grabbed her sleeve, trying to make her leave.

"Mom, you should go now. We really don't need you here. If you miss me, I can go back to our hometown with Dad to see you during the Chinese New Year."

Tsai Chin-chin felt increasingly distressed.

She couldn't hold on any longer, so she went back to her room, packed her things, and left.

Wang Xiaohu was overjoyed and asked Shen Jiang curiously, "Uncle Shen, can you bring me something delicious tonight? If you don't have time to come, I can come over."

Wang Xiaohu was filled with thoughts of delicious food and was extremely happy.

Seeing that Wang Xiaohu was home alone and Cai Qinqin wasn't cooking, Shen Jiang decided to bring him dinner.

I'll bring you dinner tonight.

"Great, I'll be waiting for you at home tonight."

Shen Jiang returned home and told Wang Jing about it. Wang Jing felt that although Wang Xiaohu was annoying, he was just a child after all. As long as he corrected his behavior in the future, it wouldn't be a big deal to have another mouth to feed.

However, the two of them still went to ask Xu Qingmo and Lu Ting for their opinions.

Lu Ting: "Qingmo's meaning is my meaning."

Xu Qingmo said, "We can't let Wang Xiaohu eat and drink for free; we need him to come and cook for our family."

Although two people were hired to cook in the family compound, Wang Xiaohu needed to contribute more if he wanted to eat the food there.

Otherwise, Xu Qingmo would never have agreed to give Wang Xiaohu a bite to eat.

Shen Jiang agreed, "Okay, we'll do as Momo says."

After preparing dinner, Shenjiang delivered two portions of food: one for Wang Xiaohu and one for Wang Shuncai.

Wang Shuncai had just arrived home when he heard from Wang Xiaohu that Cai Qinqin had been sent away, and he felt a mix of emotions.

Although he and Tsai Chin-chin often argued and said hurtful things when they were angry, he was still somewhat uneasy about the sudden disappearance of the person who always argued with him.

Before Wang Shuncai could even feel sad, Shen Jiang came and knocked on the door.

Wang Xiaohu rushed to the door and opened it. Seeing the rice bowl in Shen Jiang's hand, Wang Xiaohu followed closely behind, afraid that Shen Jiang might change his mind and take the food away.

Wang Xiaohu leaned closer to smell it, then excitedly licked his lips. "It smells so good! Uncle Shen's food is so delicious. I wish I could be your child."

Before Wang Shuncai could figure out what was going on, he couldn't help but ask, "Shenjiang, why are you bringing us food?"

“Cai Qinqin just left today, and you only found out now. It’s too late to go to the cafeteria for food. My family made extra food tonight, so I brought it to you.”

Wang Xiaohu had already secretly eaten a chicken leg and was saying indistinctly, "Dad, Uncle Shen promised to bring me food. From now on, let's not go to the cafeteria anymore and eat Uncle Shen's food, okay?"
