Chen Qing transmigrated into a period novel, becoming the aunt of a beautiful, strong, and tragic villain.

Chapter 692 Picking Xiaoyu up from school
Qiao Yirong was relieved.
She and Zhang Dongfei followed Secretary Zhang to a place specifically for taking care of children.
As soon as you enter, you can smell a strong odor of urine.
Kids can't control themselves, there's nothing I can do.
Zhang Dongfei looked at Qiao Yirong nervously.
Qiao Yirong smiled at him.
One of the factory's employees began reading the rules to her.
She knew this person was introduced by the factory manager, but the factory manager was strict with his close female friends, let alone others.
So she really didn't treat Qiao Yirong any differently.
The factory manager held her accountable for her poor childcare skills.
Qiao Yirong listened to the rules one by one, slightly surprised.
But when asked if she had any objections, she quickly shook her head.
It's only right to take good care of children.
She would do anything as long as her child could attend school normally!
Qiao Yirong went to the factory committee.
The personnel department gave her a letter of introduction: "When the time comes, just bring the brigade's certificate and you'll be able to start working. I hope you can stick with it."
"good."
Holding the thin piece of paper stamped with the official seal of the Shengxia Sports Apparel Factory's Party Committee, Qiao Yirong felt an indescribable surge of emotion.
She finally got a job!
Qiao Yirong looked at Zhang Dongfei beside her and said sincerely, "Thank you."
"It's okay, I...I should do it."
Zhang Dongfei scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
Qiao Yirong knew she owed her even more.
After walking for a while, Qiao Yirong turned her head to look at the factory gate again and said to Zhang Dongfei, "Director Chen is also a good person."
"Yes, she is, but let's not cause trouble. And let's not act recklessly just because we have some friendship. She can be very fierce when she curses. I worked with her for a while before, and we were all terrified of her. If she curses at you and I can't stand up for you, then we'll be in trouble."
Zhang Dongfei offered sincere advice.
Qiao Yirong: "..."
She wasn't that naive.
The two went to the countryside together.
The fact that Qiao Yirong was able to get a job at Shengxia Sports Apparel Factory completely shocked everyone.
Zhang Dongfei was even pulled aside by his parents and asked, "Did you borrow money from someone to help your girlfriend find a job?!"
Zhang Dongfei denied it: "No! She is a college student, so it is easier for her to find a job than others. Moreover, this job is a temporary one. She works as a childcare worker to take care of children and can earn twelve yuan a month."
“Even if she has a job, I won’t agree to it. You’re the only son in our family, and we don’t know if she’ll be able to have children in the future…”
Zhang's mother kept nagging.
Zhang's father remained silent.
Deep down, I also support my husband's idea.
Zhang Dongfei changed the subject: "How do you know it's impossible? Besides, Comrade Qiao has a child, which is my child, and my sister also has a child."
"That's enough!"
Tears welled up in Zhang's mother's eyes again. "I just don't understand how you could have chosen such a woman! It's a tragedy!"
"She's a very good person. And think about it, if I were to find someone from the city, they would be better off and might look down on us. I'm going to keep you all by my side from now on, and Comrade Qiao certainly won't have any objections, but city people definitely will. Also, if I were to choose someone from the village..."
You all think that other people are not good enough for me. I also want to find someone cultured, but I'm very picky. After all that picking and choosing, we all end up disliking each other.
Actually, you've known her for a long time and know what kind of person she is. Her previous two marriages weren't her fault.
Mom and Dad, I promise you that even if I marry Comrade Qiao, I will still take good care of my family and work hard so as not to embarrass you.
I know this has made you feel very embarrassed. You've raised such a big child and put in so much effort, only to be laughed at by others because of your marriage.
But I will work hard to learn the skills later. As long as I can earn a lot of money for you, you won't feel ashamed.
Mom and Dad, I really love her, please give us your blessing.
Zhang Dongfei's eyes pleaded.
Zhang's mother was still crying.
Zhang's father suddenly looked several years older.
In the end, the household registration booklet was handed to him.
Zhang Dongfei and Qiao Yirong didn't have a wedding ceremony; they hurriedly moved into the room Zhang Dongfei rented.
Fortunately, his house was big enough for his family to live in.
Qiao Yirong also went to work.
On the day she went to work, Xiaoyu went to training.
Chen Qing was also busy with the sneakers business; fortunately, she had a lot of money and could find people to help her.
Although the work was rushed, Chen Qing had already arranged the specific steps, and it was progressing in an orderly manner, although everyone was quite busy.
Including Chen Qing himself.
I was so busy all day that I didn't drive home until it was time to leave work.
It wasn't difficult for her to apply for driving, because she said she would cover the fuel costs separately at night, and the organization was willing to give her some preferential treatment.
Chen Qing drove the car to a place not far from his home and parked it. He found Mao Mao at the entrance of the alley.
"Mao Mao, you're here."
She naturally took Mao Mao's hand.
Mao Mao said, "This is the first time Xiao Yu has been alone in such a far place. I'm worried about her, so I'm going with you to pick her up."
"Okay, let's set off together later."
He Yuan has been very busy these past few days because one of the 'relatives' he had found finally arrived.
When Chen Qing set off to pick up Xiao Yu that evening, she took care of the two children for him.
He Yuxiang hesitated whether to go with his aunt to pick up his younger sister. It was already 7:10. Seeing his aunt bragging to his younger siblings about buying a car, he stepped forward and said, "I'll go with you to pick up Xiaoyu."
"Sure."
Chen Qing drove He Yuxiang and Mao Mao to Xiao Yu's training base.
Chen Qing estimated it would take forty-five minutes, but it actually took less than forty minutes, mainly because there weren't many cars on the road.
While her aunt got out of the car to check if Xiaoyu and the others had finished school, Mao Mao secretly said to He Yuxiang, "Auntie seems to be driving faster this time than she did at the Canton Fair."
"There are no cars or people, we're basically the only ones on the road, so it'll definitely be fast."
As He Yuxiang looked at the dimly lit ground along the way, he suddenly understood why his aunt, who was so busy, still came to pick up Xiaoyu.
If Xiaoyu goes home alone with someone she doesn't know, with no lights in the car and it so dark outside, she'll definitely be scared, all alone.
"Wow, Xiaoyu!!!" Chen Qing opened his arms and hugged her.
Xiaoyu burst into laughter and ran into her aunt's arms: "Auntie, the coach praised me today! I trained very well, and I got the highest scores in Chinese and Math in the whole class. I'm a fourth-grade student now!!"
"That's great."
Chen Qing vigorously ruffled her hair and hugged her tightly for a while.
"Xiao Yu!!!"
An even louder voice appeared.
Xiaoyu peeked out excitedly: "Mao Mao!"
Looking again at the car, I exclaimed, "Brother!"
He Yuxiang stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder.
Xiao Yu skipped and hopped around them twice before getting into the car.
As soon as they got on the bus, they started sharing what they had been exercising and learning that day.
"School is so much fun! We even play games during physical training, which is so much fun. The students are also very fit, so they can play with me for a long time. They are amazing!"
