The Ordinary Life of the 1950s

Transmigrated to the 1950s, she became an orphan without parents, but there's no need to fear!

With a spatial ability and the care of the whole village, she managed to get through the dis...

Chapter 819 Human Nature

Jiang Mingyan lowered her head, her face contorted in a grimace. Why was everyone laughing at her?

But she doesn't seem to realize that if you don't do anything outrageous, how can you be ridiculed?

We have three nannies at home now, so we don't need them to cook.

Kong Yushun truly loathed them. How could they be so shameful? Why were they always the ones causing trouble?

The men all looked away and continued chatting. It was their own business; if they wanted to embarrass themselves, that was their own choice.

Carlos went upstairs, knocked on the door, and entered the room. Annie and Zhang Hongmei were sitting on the bed, teasing Daniel.

In that instant, Carlos felt that these were his wife and children.

"Dad, why did you come up here?"

"I'll come and chat with you."

“Dad, Daniel is very well-behaved and always smiles.”

Carlos braced himself on the bed, looking at his son who looked exactly like him, and felt a warmth in his heart.

"Hongmei, thank you so much!"

"Hehe, why are you being so polite? I'm not doing this for you. At first, I felt sorry for the little guy, but now I genuinely like him."

Carlos sat down on the edge of the bed and placed a finger in Daniel's palm.

The little guy grabbed it, his eyes crinkling with laughter.

"Hongmei, the men's club is opening soon. Do you have time to go and take a look?"

Zhang Hongmei shook her head, "I'm not going anymore. Now, Aunt Wang is the only one supporting the women's club."

"But I heard that business is very good."

"Hehe, yes. Men are out working and socializing, leaving only women at home. They get lonely too, so of course they'd be happy to have this place."

“Hongmei, why don’t you open a club in Y country too? Otherwise, it won’t be long before others follow suit.”

"No, we don't have that much energy. The company can build a clubhouse there."

"Yes, Wyatt and I have considered a men's club. If you don't want to open one abroad, then the company can do it together."

"Hehe, I have no objection. You two can discuss it and decide."

At this moment, Huang Meihua also came in. Zhang Hongmei was particularly sensitive to emotions and noticed that the old lady seemed a little unhappy.

"Godmother, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just don't really like those two girls, they're too unreserved."

Zhang Hongmei immediately thought of Jiang Mingyan and Wang Minxia. Considering Carlos had come up first, she immediately guessed what they were thinking. She was truly speechless about those two.

"Don't get angry because of unrelated people."

"Okay, why isn't our Daniel asleep yet today? Don't make sure he doesn't keep your mom from eating."

The little guy is probably exceptionally clever because he drank the water from the magical spring. He just smiles whenever he looks at his grandma.

Bass was resting in the next room. There were too many people downstairs, and they were all young. They couldn't really connect. So she simply stayed in her room and read a few of Zhang Hongmei's scripts.

Although the McCann family didn't own a film and television company, they were still very satisfied with the scripts written by Zhang Hongmei.

Carlos once said that film and television companies are now more profitable than game companies. And in China, their company is now among the top-ranked.

Dinner was ready, and Zhao Hao was going upstairs to call them down for dinner.

"Godmother, you three go down first. I'll go down after I've put Daniel to sleep."

"Hongmei, I'll stay. I don't like the way they look at me. It makes me feel nauseous, and I can't eat. I'll skip dinner."

“Yes, Hongmei, after you put Daniel to sleep, go downstairs and let Carlos watch the child. Let him go down to eat after they leave.”

Zhang Hongmei felt extremely embarrassed. What was going on? Had the two of them become tigers?

Carlos watched Zhang Hongmei gently patting Daniel and felt incredibly happy. How wonderful it would be if this were his own wife and child!

Kong Yushun felt extremely embarrassed when he saw that Carlos hadn't come down. The two of them kept looking towards the stairwell, it was so obvious even a fool could see it.

Zhao Tiancheng drank with Beth and the other two. None of them were heavy drinkers, and the young men each had a glass. However, Zeng Zhongkang and his two companions absolutely refused to drink. Zhang Hongmei had said that excessive drinking would dull the brain.

After dinner, Kong Yushun glanced at Yan Dongming, and the two nodded. "Mr. Zhao, Hongmei, we won't stay for dumplings. There are too many people at home, and it's too noisy. We don't want to disturb the children."

Zhao Tiancheng smiled and said, "Okay, the three of us will drive you back."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Zhao."

Jiang Mingyan and Wang Minxia were very unhappy. "Kong Yushun, why did you leave so early? Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and we always stay up together every year."

"If you two want to stay, then don't travel with the eight of us anymore."

Hearing his words, the two were absolutely furious. However, seeing the expressions on the faces of the others, they knew that Kong Yushun was telling the truth.

Today I finally have the chance to meet such a high-quality man, but these idiots want to leave?

Even if the two were dissatisfied, they still left with them.

Finally, they left. Cheng Guangxu sighed. He and Cai Peilin exchanged a glance. If all women were like that, they were destined to be bachelors forever.

Miao Xinyue and Zhao Yuetong were indifferent to them. They didn't take them seriously at all, so when they saw the two juniors' scared looks, they laughed heartily.

“Cheng Guangxu and Cai Peilin are a very small minority. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”

Wang Xinyi, sitting to the side, laughed, "Yes. There are still many good women. You two should find wives when you go back to China."

"Aunt Wang, I'm really scared. If everyone is like this and causes trouble, how will we live?"

"Guangxu, you're overthinking it."

With Zhao Tiancheng and his son, along with Zeng Zhongkang, back home, making dumplings for dinner that evening was much easier, and the three housekeepers in the kitchen also felt much more relaxed.

When everyone was asleep late into the night, Zhang Hongmei sent Zhang Shouyi a voice message of blessing. Then she lay down next to Daniel and soon drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, after breakfast, everyone who was supposed to go to work or school left, leaving only three nannies and Wang Xinyi and Huang Meihua with the two children at home.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Shen Yunfang came in a moment later. "Ms. Huang, there are two men and a few young men outside. They say they're here to see you."

Upon hearing this, Huang Meihua knew that it must be her eldest daughter and her second daughter's families who had come over.

"Sister Huang, who are they?"

"From two daughters."

"Then let's not let them in, Sister Huang. You should call Mr. McCann instead."

"Yes, thank you for your trouble. Please take care of Daniel. I'm going home for a bit."
