Chen Yunyun transmigrated into a nostalgic novel from a bygone era. Her three adopted children, destined to become blackened villains, were precisely the miserable counterparts to the lucky female ...
A hint of mockery flashed in Chen Yunyun's eyes. This old woman's plan was quite clever.
"Mom, what are you talking about? Is the factory manager position so easy to get?"
Grandma Song opened and closed her mouth, her eyebrows raised, "You've become the factory director, aren't you going to help your brother?"
The old lady continued, "Aren't you on good terms with those foreigners? Let them set up a factory in our county too."
On her way here, Song Xiaofen had heard many people talk about Chen Yunyun running a factory with foreigners. In her mind, it was a simple matter that could be accomplished with just a few words.
It took Chen Yunyun about ten minutes to explain to the old lady how difficult it was to set up a factory, and how she had worked incredibly hard to get the position of factory manager.
The old lady then became skeptical, as if she had given up on the idea.
She silently finished off all the dishes without leaving any for Chen Yunyun. Fortunately, Chen Yunyun had already eaten meat in the kitchen and was full.
A moment later, as if remembering something, the old woman suddenly grabbed Chen Yunyun's arm and said, "Zhaodi, your mother has raised you with great difficulty and has put in a lot of effort."
“Back then, there was no food, so I went out to dig up wild vegetable roots to keep you alive.”
"Life was so hard, your mother had no choice but to marry you off to such a faraway place."
"You must never hold a grudge against your mother."
"Look how well you're doing here. Your mother-in-law is dead, your husband is in the army, and now you're the factory manager. You have all the good food and drinks you need. You're here to enjoy life."
“If we hadn’t married you off to this family, you would have suffered so much.”
Heh... This old hag is pretty good at brainwashing.
The way they described selling their daughter was so appealing and righteous; anyone else might have believed it.
Now is not the time to break ties with the old woman, so Chen Yunyun secretly activated her mind-reading ability.
She adopted a meek and submissive demeanor, just like the original owner of this body in front of her mother, saying, "Mother, you're right."
The old lady nodded with satisfaction. "Zhao Di, you are very sensible. I want to discuss something with you."
They said it was a discussion, but their tone didn't sound like one at all.
Chen Yunyun listened quietly. Song Xiaofen said, "Your younger brother hasn't gotten married yet. He works in the fields with your father every day. The weather is hot, and he's exhausted, sweating profusely and feeling dizzy every day when he goes to work."
"Could you arrange a position for him in your raw material processing plant?"
[The old lady's inner thoughts: First, let this girl find a position for her son, then find an opportunity to make her give up the factory manager's position. A woman like her shouldn't be at home raising her children; she's always out in the public eye!]
The old woman's true feelings contrasted sharply with her hypocritical face. Chen Yunyun heard it clearly; so that's what the old woman was planning.
“Mother, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but my brother lives so far away. Where will he stay? Our factory isn’t going to close down in just a year or two. After he gets married, won’t he separate from you and not live with you anymore?”
The old lady's smile never wavered. "Don't worry about it. I'll talk to your team leader and see if we can transfer your household registration."
"When the time comes, let your brother build a house here, so you two siblings can look after each other."
[The old lady's thoughts: When the third son comes, he can move into your house directly. Your house is so big, why would you need to build another one?]
Besides, once the factory manager position is given to the third son, our whole family will move in.
It's true what they say, greed knows no bounds. This old lady is plotting to usurp someone else's place. Not only does she, Chen Yunyun, want to step down, but she also wants to take over someone else's house.
Chen Yunyun finally saw it for herself.
She echoed the old lady's words, "It would be too much trouble for my younger brother to come and build a house. Why don't you just stay at my house?"
"My house is a bit small. When the children grow up, I'm afraid it won't be enough for each of them to have their own room. If there are too many people, where they will stay will be a problem."
[The old lady's thoughts: "Where to live isn't difficult! Just set up a shed outside and let those burdens of ours live there."]
[Especially those two disobedient brats, when they move in, we need to discipline them properly. If they misbehave, give them a good beating; a few beatings will make them behave.]
Chen Yunyun's eyes gradually darkened, and her gaze towards the old lady became extremely cold.
This family is so greedy, just wait and see how she deals with them!
"Mother, I'm fine. Go back and call my brother tomorrow."
Hearing Chen Yunyun's words, the old lady was overjoyed and forgot to complain about the lack of meat in the dish. She took Chen Yunyun's hand and pretended to be a loving mother, saying, "Zhao Di is so good. Zhao Di is really promising."
Chen Yunyun curved the corners of her mouth slightly, but there was no smile in her eyes.
The old lady was so engrossed in her joy that she didn't notice Chen Yunyun's unusual behavior at all.
The old lady got up early the next morning and started getting ready.
She pulled out a large cloth bag from somewhere and filled it with all the blankets from Chen Yunyun's bed, the radishes and green peppers from the kitchen, and even stuffed the kettle inside.
Seeing Chen Yunyun come in, the old woman had no sense of being a thief at all. Without even looking up, she said, "We don't have any of these things at home. I'm taking them back for them to use. Anyway, you've already used them all, so they're nothing special."
Chen Yunyun didn't stop her; she didn't want the sheets and blankets the old woman had slept on anyway.
Carrying a large bag of things, Grandma Song happily returned to Lin County.
Many people got up to go to work in the morning and saw Song Xiaofen take a big bag out of Chen Yunyun's house. The bag was bulging.
Those who didn't know better might have thought Song Xiaofen had come to rob Chen Yunyun, and many people started gossiping about it.
