Chapter 811 Shopping

"You'll be going back in two years at most, and that kid'll probably get sick by then!"

"Hehe, why don't you three go back together? Zhao Haozheng is fine here."

After listening to Zhang Hongmei's words, Zhao Tiancheng seemed to be deep in thought and felt that he should talk to his son about this matter.

“How can that be? There are so many businesses here. Your Uncle Zhao should stay and help Haozheng. My daughter and I will go back.”

"Wife, you really can't do this. How can you abandon me?"

Zhang Hongmei left with a smile. Let the couple go and strengthen their relationship.

Once the couple was in bed, Zhao Tiancheng hugged his wife and said, "I'll find an opportunity to talk to Haozheng."

Wang Xinyi shook her head. "No, I don't necessarily have to go back. First, Ningning is still too young and it's not suitable for her to fly. Also, let's wait until Haozheng gets married. Our family business is growing, and Haozheng has to help Hongmei. I'm afraid I'll wear him out."

“Okay, then I’ll talk to him and hear what he has to say. He’s a junior in college now, and he’ll graduate in a little over a year. It’s time for him to settle down.”

"Yes, it's time to settle down. I just don't know what kind of girl he likes?"

“I really don’t know, and I’ve never asked this question before. However, I think my son must have very high standards to find such a virtuous and beautiful wife for his father.”

"You old lecher. You should ask Haozheng when you have the chance."

"Okay, I understand. Let's go to sleep. You must be exhausted from taking care of this little darling every day."

The next morning, Zhang Hongmei and Zeng Zhongkang drove to McKinsey's house.

Anne had been waiting for this for a long time, and now she increasingly disliked having her at home. Although Elizabeth was still kind to her, she just didn't want to stay there.

She didn't tell anyone about this idea. Her mother told her to talk to her grandmother, but she didn't want her grandmother to worry. She felt that it would be best if they weren't together.

"Mom, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you."

"Hehe, I'm not late, am I? Where's Grandma?"

"In the greenhouse at the back."

"Let's go find Grandma and tell her we're going shopping for a dress."

Just as the two were about to leave, Beth came out of the study.

"Godfather, are you home?"

"Hmm, Hongmei, is it really worth getting so anxious about such a small amount of money?"

"Godfather, one thing at a time."

"You! Are you going to find your godmother?"

"Yes, there's a thank-you banquet from a film company on the 30th. Annie, let's go buy some dresses."

"Why not just invite them over?"

"We'd like to go shopping!"

"Go ahead. I'll cover today's expenses. I'll give you 50,000 later, is that enough?"

"Godfather, I have money!"

"Your money is yours, but this is what I gave you."

"Haha, let's go shopping every week from now on."

"Hehe, then I'll give it to her every week. It's rare for my young lady to want to spend money. I fully support her!"

"You'll spoil us both."

“Your godfather wants to spoil you, but you don’t give him the chance.” Huang Meihua came in from the flower room and heard Zhang Hongmei’s last sentence.

"Godmother, my godfather gave us 50,000 yuan so we could go shopping and spend it."

"Go ahead, I'll give you more if it's not enough."

"Annie, let's not go out. Let's call the clothing company and ask them to come over. Shopping is already stressful enough."

"Hehe, you little rascal. Go out and play, Annie has missed you terribly." How could Huang Meihua not know what her granddaughter was thinking? But this is something she's really slowly getting used to.

"Godmother, Aunt Wang and her family of three will be coming over to visit in a little while."

"That's great! I miss Ningning so much."

Elizabeth listened to their conversation from the second floor, feeling quite uncomfortable, but she really didn't have the guts to upset Zhang Hongmei and Anne downstairs.

Just wait. In a few years, when you give birth to an heir, everything will be fine.

Beth really took out 50,000 and handed it to Zeng Zhongkang, saying, "You hold this for them and pay their bill."

"Thank you, godfather. We're going out to have some fun. If you want Annie to come, give me a call and I'll bring her back."

"Grandpa and Grandma, if you miss me, you can come to Mom's house to see me."

"Okay, your grandfather and I will come to see you."

The two of them bought a lot of things that morning: matching outfits and shoes for each of them. They also bought outfits and shoes for Zeng Zhongkang and Zhao Haozheng. Finally, they bought bags, cute hair accessories, and a gift for Ningning.

Looking at the time, it was almost one o'clock, and Zhang Hongmei was a little hungry. "Annie, where should we eat?"

"Mom, how about we go get some fried chicken?"

"Zeng Zhongkang, what about you?"

"I have no objection, I'm fine with whatever I eat."

"Okay, let's go get some fried chicken."

Less than an hour after Zhang Hongmei and the other two left, Zhao Tiancheng drove over.

Huang Meihua held Ningning tightly and wouldn't let go. Beth also sat beside him, trying to amuse him.

Elizabeth knew that guests had arrived downstairs, but she didn't want to go down to greet them. She felt she wasn't familiar with them and couldn't understand what they were saying, so she didn't go downstairs until lunchtime.

She also really liked Ningning, but Ningning just wouldn't let her hug her, making the atmosphere a little awkward.

After lunch, the three of them left. "Brother Zhao, Sister Huang didn't choose the right person this time. This guy is too petty."

"Hmm, maybe they're not familiar with us."

Zhang Hongmei and the other two didn't get home until evening. Zeng Zhongkang carried the day's spoils from the car three times before he finally finished.

Annie sat in the living room distributing gifts, almost half of which went to Ningning.

The little guy sat next to Annie, looking very excited.

It was the afternoon of the 30th when Wyatt called. "Beautiful lady, could you give me a chance to pick you up?"

"That would be too much trouble. Annie, the four of us can just drive there."

"No trouble at all, I'm at home now, I'll be there in half an hour."

"All right."

Thankfully, Annie and the other girl didn't need makeup; they could just change into their dresses. Otherwise, Wyatt would have really had to wait.

"Zeng Zhongkang, you and Zhao Haozheng go ahead, Wyatt is coming to pick us up."

"No, Haozheng should drive there himself."

Zhang Hongmei knew he was doing this for her own good, so she didn't refuse.

Men change clothes even faster, and by the time Wyatt's car entered the yard, the three of them were already waiting there.

When I arrived at the venue, there were already many people there.

"Uncle Wyatt, is my dad coming today?"

"Of course, he should be going to your house to pick up your mother. Don't worry, he'll be there soon."

Anne's good mood immediately vanished when she heard that Elizabeth was also coming, but she didn't show it.

Carlos really did go to pick up Elizabeth. When the two arrived at the venue, they immediately spotted Zhang Hongmei and Anne, both dressed in yellow gowns.

"Mom, Dad's here!" Annie noticed them and alerted Zhang Hongmei, who had her back to her.
