Yu Yao reached out and hugged Wu Wanying, patting her back to comfort her, "Mom, the past is the past. With you both by my side from now on, I will definitely be fine."

With tears in her eyes, Wu Wanying smiled and said, "Zhizhi is right, my Zhizhi will definitely get better and better."

Good heavens, she would give up ten years of her life for her daughter's health and well-being.

As long as Zhizhi is alright, it doesn't matter if she lives a few years less.

Yu Yao wiped away her tears: "Mom, don't worry about work. Lu Ze and I have already discussed it. I plan to tell the factory manager about my resignation at Haixing Food Factory tomorrow. From now on, I'll stay home and take good care of my health. I'll use this pregnancy to make up for all the losses I've made before."

Wu Wanying nodded. "Okay, it's getting late. You should get some rest today. Mom will come to see you again tomorrow."

Yu Yao asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you weren't going back today?"

Wu Wanying held her hand, "Mom remembered there's something important to do, I'll come over tomorrow."

"Mom, wait a minute, I bought you gifts, let me give them to you."

The next morning, Wu Wanying pushed her bicycle into the compound.

"Mom, why did you buy so much stuff?" Yu Yao said, helping Wu Wanying carry everything into the main room. "This much stuff is enough to last a week."

A large bag of blood-nourishing and qi-tonifying medicinal herbs, two cleaned old hens, and a basket of fresh seafood.

The eight-immortal table in the center of the main room was completely filled with food.

Wu Wanying smiled and placed the two river fish on the table: "This is nothing. Besides, we have a refrigerator now, so we can put them in there. I consulted Dr. Cai about all these things, and they're all things you can use. I still think we don't have enough."

“Oh, right,” Wu Wanying remembered something, glanced outside, closed the door to the main room, and took out a bankbook from her bosom. “Keep this.”

"Don't put too much pressure on you and Lu Ze about raising the child. Your father and I have saved up a lot of dowry for you over the years. It was supposed to be given to you when you got married, but it was delayed because of some things. I brought it all today."

Yu Yao put the bankbook back into Wu Wanying's hand. "Mom, don't worry about the child. Lu Ze recently got a raise. He gets two hundred yuan a month with his salary and various allowances, which is more than enough to support me and the child."

"Besides, I made a lot of money from developing canned goods and selling bird's nest. Even without Lu Ze's salary, that would be enough for my family to live on for several years. I'm not short of money."

"How can that be the same? What's yours is yours, and what your dad and I gave you is what we gave you. If we tell you to take it, then take it."

Wu Wanying became anxious, her eyes reddened, and she said pitifully with her lips pursed, "Zhizhi, are you blaming me and your father for not taking the money? We didn't take good care of you back then, and you were taken away by someone and suffered so much."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yao quickly put the bankbook into her pocket. "Mom, I don't have one. How about this, I'll take it, I'll take it, okay?"

"That's right." Wu Wanying wiped away non-existent tears and smiled.

Well, she was just faking it all along.

Yu Yao never expected that she would be tricked.

Wu Wanying glanced at her watch. "It's so late, we need to hurry up and start stewing the chicken, otherwise we won't be able to have any for lunch."

As she spoke, she hurriedly grabbed the medicinal herbs and chicken and went to the kitchen.

Yu Yao looked at the passbook in her hand and curiously opened it for a glance.

His eyes were wide open.

so much?!

Back in her room, Yao Yao found the key, opened the bedside table, and took out the jewelry and bankbook inside.

Yu Yao counted them, her eyes narrowing into slits.

She's now a real little rich woman.

The three-day holiday plus the weekend passed quickly.

The next day, the first thing Yu Yao did when she went to the factory was to go find Factory Manager Wang.

Factory Director Wang, sitting behind his desk, was pleasantly surprised to see her arrive. "Squad Leader Yu, you've come at the perfect time. I was just about to look for you. Your workshop performed exceptionally well at the Canton Fair, and the factory has decided to commend outstanding employees this afternoon in the staff auditorium. Remember to inform your colleagues when you get back."

After finishing his business, Director Wang looked at Yu Yao and asked, "By the way, Squad Leader Yu, what brings you to my office?"

Yu Yao handed the envelope to Director Wang.

"What's this?" Factory Director Wang opened the letter and saw the words "Resignation Application" on it. "You want to resign?"

Yu Yao nodded. "Factory manager, I'm pregnant. The doctor said I was severely deficient in qi and blood before, so I need to take good care of my health and avoid overworking or worrying too much."

“You’re not feeling well and need to rest. I can approve your leave. Go back and recover before returning to work at the factory.”

Factory Director Wang didn't want to lose Yu Yao, a talented individual, and preferred to grant her six months or even a year's leave rather than have her resign.

"Thank you, Director Wang. If I can have both, I don't want to leave the factory. The new workshop has just generated so much foreign exchange, and we need people to coordinate the delivery within three months. It's a time when we need manpower, and I can't just occupy the position of foreman without doing any work."

"Besides, I don't know when I'll be able to recover. What if it takes a year or two? We can't let the new workshop be without a foreman for a year or two."

Yu Yao spoke with sincerity, and what she said addressed real-world issues.

The factory is not a place where Director Wang can do whatever he wants. Even if he values ​​talent and wants to keep Yu Yao, he has to consider the thoughts of other people in the factory.

"Since you've considered everything so thoroughly, I won't say anything more. If you ever want to come back, Haixing Food Factory welcomes you anytime."

"Thank you, factory manager."

Yu Yao only resigned from her position as class monitor; she still holds her job. Besides having a family member take over, she can also sell it.
