Chapter 383: Ex-husband fights for custody 1 He wants to take his son away, and he is willing to take him away...

Yao Taotao's question left Chao Risheng at a loss. He had no idea what she meant, so he just told her the truth: "It's cold and snowing. Why are you going out?"

"Why, I can't go out?" Yao Taotao stood up. Although she had just recovered from a serious illness, she was not weak and frail.

She turned to go to the bedroom to get a scarf, and Chao Risheng hurried over to help: "Do you want to have a snowball fight? Or build a snowman? You're just right, don't bother, I'll make whatever you want."

Yao Taotao didn't say anything. She silently put on her scarf and gloves, pushed him away, and walked out.

Chao Risheng quickly chased after him: "Where on earth are you going? You didn't even lock the door."

Yao Taotao stopped across the street from her home and just looked at Chao Risheng. Chao Risheng's scalp tingled, so he had to grit his teeth, go back to the house to get the key, lock the door, and then come out to look for her.

When he came out, the person was gone. Fortunately, there were footprints in the snow. He chased her all the way out and found that she had gone into the school.

She stood on the school road where she had beaten him that day, waiting for him to come.

Chao Risheng frowned, hesitated for a moment, and finally walked over: "Are you tired? Let me carry you back. You're fine now, don't get sick from the cold again."

Yao Taotao grabbed his hand and slapped it in her face: "Didn't you want me to compensate you for those two slaps? Hit me back and we'll be even."

Chao Risheng refused and insisted on taking his hand back. Yao Taotao also refused and insisted on pulling his hand over and lifting it up so that she could give her a beautiful slap in the face.

The two of them kept pulling and tugging, and finally Yao Taotao let go of his hand in anger and slapped herself in the face.

Chao Risheng couldn't stand it anymore. His anger made him raise his voice subconsciously. He couldn't help but question her: "What on earth do you want to do? You might as well just hit me! I'm not a human being. You hit me, and when you've hit me enough, let's go our separate ways! I won't bother you anymore!"

Yao Taotao didn't say anything, she was just sad.

Zhizhi was right. The slap was so painful that she couldn't even accept it if she was slapped herself, let alone if it was slapped by someone else.

Chao Risheng was beaten, but he did not fight back. Instead, he went back and became ruthless, wanting her to get pregnant and never leave him again.

Regardless of whether he succeeded or not, at least in his heart, slapping her in public was obviously not allowed.

In his heart, her dignity in public was more important than the possibility that her studies might be affected by her pregnancy.

In other words, he is more inclined to protect her social reputation and the opinions of others. As for small actions such as pregnancy and childbirth, which are done behind the scenes, it may not necessarily affect her reputation in the outside world.

He has a temper and has made choices. Unfortunately, Yao Taotao is too greedy. She hits someone but doesn't want her dignity to be damaged. The result of wanting everything is that others will plot against her. All causes and effects have traces to follow.

She silently added another slap.

Chao Risheng was so frightened that he immediately held her arms to stop her from hurting herself. He didn't understand: "Have you had enough? I apologized, but you're still not satisfied. You want to break up? Fine, break up. Then why did you hit yourself? It's useless except to make me feel sad!"

Yao Taotao had a smile on her lips, and as she smiled, tears began to fall. She hesitated for a long time and finally asked, "If I hit you that day, but apologized to you after returning home, would you still plot to get me pregnant?"

"...I don't think so. I was also angry." Chao Risheng released her arms and put his arms around her. "You...why are you asking this? I know I was wrong. It's New Year's Day, so let's not talk about this, okay? Can we wait until after the New Year to argue?"

"You didn't lie to me?" Yao Taotao felt uncomfortable. It was impossible to put off the problem until later.

She didn't expect that he was the one taking care of her while she was lying in bed for three days, and she didn't expect that when she opened her eyes, the New Year's Eve dinner would be almost ready.

It's rare to find a man who cares so much about his family.

The house was tidy and the New Year's goods were prepared. Apart from the fact that he was plotting to get her pregnant, she really couldn't find any fault with him.

But she herself is not a saint, not a perfect person.

If she was still hard-hearted three days ago, then now, three days later, on the school road in the cold wind and snow, after she slapped herself twice, she had new feelings.

Being able to hold back and not fight back was already beyond her reach, so how could she be a saint? Zhizhi was right to scold him.

Her face is still burning. If those two slaps were given by Chao Risheng, she would fight him to the death.

But he didn't.

A person’s true adulthood does not occur when he is eighteen, but when he begins to face his own problems after being impulsive and willful.

She expected him to be honest as well.

Chao Risheng sighed helplessly, "It's the truth, Tao'er. I told you, as long as I have you, I'm willing to do anything. Please don't break up with me, okay? I'll listen to you from now on. I'm obedient, I correct my mistakes, I can make a lot of money, and I can wash clothes, cook, mop the floor and wipe the table. You see, I'm a natural at taking care of children. When you graduate, you can do your own things, and I'll take care of the rear for you, take care of your wife and children, isn't that good? Even if you're angry now, don't make a decision right away! Wait until you calm down."

Yao Taotao didn't say anything else. She just buried her head in Chao Risheng's shoulder, silently calming herself down in the wind and snow.

In the end, the two went back together. Chao Risheng had not prepared anything at his residence, so he would spend the New Year at Yao Taotao's place tonight.

*

Yao Zhizhi and her family moved to a villa by the river to celebrate the New Year.

My eldest brother and his family are all here. All three children are well-raised and clean, and they are so adorable just by looking at them.

Nine children from three families were together, having a lively time and having endless things to talk about, so the elders simply arranged a separate table for the children and let them chat.

Yao Weiguo looked at the magnificent small building and liked it very much, but it was a pity that they lived in the city and could not build a house.

Yao Zhizhi comforted him, "It's okay. The real estate market will develop in two years, and there will be no shortage of luxury homes like villas. I'll buy one for you then."

"Silly girl, I'm your big brother, how can I ask you for money to buy a house?" Yao Weiguo refused and said with a smile, "Besides, I'm not your big brother who eats for free. I believe I can buy it if I work hard."

Yao Zhizhi didn't say anything else. Her brother had no idea about future housing prices, so he must have thought it wasn't a big deal. In fact, if she hadn't had a system, she'd have found it hard to believe future housing prices would be so outrageous. Fortunately, she'd prepared for a rainy day and made a lot of money.

Forget it, let's see what the situation is when the time comes. If big brother is short of money, she will definitely help. By then, the children will have started their own families and careers, and big brother will probably not refuse anymore.

In short, today is New Year's Day and it's a rare occasion for us to get together, so let's have fun and not say anything that will spoil the fun.

It’s a pity that the third brother is not here, otherwise the whole family would be truly reunited, how wonderful it would be.

The New Year passed quickly, and my eldest brother and his family returned to the Northeast. Yao Zhizhi also moved back to the hutong to be closer to the non-staple food factory.

Ever since she and Yao Taotao took over the factory, they changed the production line and replaced the employees, and the factory turned a profit in less than three months.

The reason is very simple. The factory constantly has new products, and employees are no longer lazy. The factory also encourages employees to expand their own sales channels and pays commissions of 5% to 15% of sales. Naturally, employees are highly motivated and production is naturally in full swing.

Yao Zhizhi and Yao Taotao were both very generous and gave two months' salary as year-end bonus. Now the two most popular units in Yicheng are the publishing house and the renovated non-staple food factory.

Yao Zhizhi planned to rebuild the staff dormitories once the profit was sufficient, and build two modern living buildings, which would be much better than the current ones.

Nowadays, all the buildings are low, some are only single-story, some are two-story, and three-story buildings are very rare. Not only do they occupy a lot of land, but the facilities are also backward.

After the building is built, a lot of land can be saved, which can be used to plan some facilities for employees to exercise and entertain. Wouldn’t that be better?

Of course, this matter cannot be rushed and needs to be done slowly, so she still has to go to the factory before school starts.

As expected, I met Zhang Tieshan in the workshop. This former factory director has changed completely after his failed marriage with Chu Lingyi. Now he is proactive and hardworking. He has become the workshop foreman based on his own ability, which is a big improvement.

Seeing Yao Zhizhi, he was very excited and ran over to say hello. "Director Yao, Lv Yuan is developing an integrated production line for automatic baking and filling. The results are almost out. Can we try it out in our factory as a pilot project?"

"Don't worry. If she really designs an efficient assembly line system, ask her to draw the blueprint and send it to me. I will ask my sister-in-law to study it. If it is feasible, I will definitely help you." Yao Zhizhi has always been targeting not Lu Yuan as a person, but Lu Yuan who committed crimes.

As long as Lu Yuan mends her ways and becomes a useful person to society, she naturally wouldn't mind giving her a chance.

Zhang Tieshan was a little surprised: "Your sister-in-law can read mechanical drawings?"

Yao Zhizhi was very proud: "Why not? She is a designer at a machinery factory in the Northeast. She is already a senior engineer. Anyone who sees her must address her as Engineer Cui."

Zhang Tieshan was shocked. "Wow, that's amazing. Okay, I'll send you the drawings when the time comes."

"Go ahead, but don't be so impatient that you ignore the potential safety hazards. Remember, no matter how important efficiency is, it is not as important as the safety of employees in the workshop. I don't want any accidents with broken limbs to happen in my factory." Yao Zhizhi repeatedly reminded that if the price of automation is that employees may get into trouble at any time, she will give up this highly efficient equipment.

Zhang Tieshan understood and was a little curious: "You only have one year left before graduation this year, right? Will you come back then?"

"I'm not sure. Right now, my wife and I are inclined to find a job as a university teacher. It's easy, and I can spend time with the children during the winter and summer vacations. We'll see how the situation turns out then." Yao Zhizhi doesn't mind returning to Yicheng, as many of her friends are here.

As for the capital, it seems like a good idea to stay there, but correspondingly, it is also more difficult and stressful.

In short, you should chop wood according to the mountain you are in.

After leaving the food factory and returning to the alley, I heard Kong Badou's shouting voice as I reached the entrance of the alley.

Hey, this bastard actually came here to fight for custody, and she hasn't even made a move yet.

That's strange.

She stood at the door and listened curiously, then laughed. It turned out that it was the stupid Maodan who couldn't stand the cold eyes of the children in the alley, so he ran to his father crying to complain.

It was clearly him who always borrowed toys from other people's homes and didn't return them, but he turned the tables and said that the kids in the alley were ostracizing him.

Kong Badou has been divorced and remarried for so many years, but he still hasn't gotten what he wanted. Now his third son wants to live with him on his own initiative, and his age also meets the legal age for children to make their own choices. This is exactly what he wants.

Come quickly and snatch Mao Ling's son. If you snatch him away, he will definitely have to change his surname and inherit the incense of his old Kong family. Just thinking about it is very exciting.
