There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before she said, "No, she just gave birth to a daughter a few days ago, and her mother secretly took her away to give her away."
“My eldest daughter is not even four years old yet. We take her to the beach every day. A few days ago, she almost fell into the sea, but luckily Xie Ying and Xie Lan pulled her out in time.”
Living by the sea, when the tide goes out, children who can run and jump like to go to the beach to play and pick up fish and shrimp that are washed up by the sea.
But that day really scared him. He set a rule that day: children under four years old in the family compound were not allowed to go to Houtan. If any child did not listen to the advice, they would be kicked out of the family compound.
Because there was one less person to work, and Zhou Miao was in postpartum confinement, her family was dissatisfied and tried to make a fuss about the air freight cost.
You can enjoy watermelons from the island even though you're far away in Beijing.
Shishi thought of Xie Ying and Xie Lan, who were Zhou Miao's stepdaughters who were disliked. Now she had two daughters of her own, and she treated her biological daughters even worse than her stepdaughters. Was the man in the house just a decoration?
What was that man's name again? Oh, Xu Jianghai. He couldn't have a son, so he gave away his two daughters from his first marriage and didn't care about his current daughter either.
What a scoundrel.
Such a person should be childless and without descendants.
Zhou Miao doesn't deserve to be born.
"Doesn't Xu Jianghai care?"
“He led a team on a mission for more than three months and hadn’t returned yet. The army sent people to retrieve the child, but they found that the family was honest and kind, so they didn’t bring the child back. They thought they would wait for Xu Jianghai to return before making a decision.”
In fact, given Zhou Miao's character, Shen Yijin felt that it would be better for the child to be given away than to stay with her biological family.
"Shen Bingshan, I'll have Xiao Liangzi transport the goods tomorrow. We don't want Zhou Miao's family's goods anymore. If they're so capable, let them send them themselves. Even if they do, I won't want them."
"Okay, I'll have everyone speed up the process."
Shen Yijin knew this would be the outcome, so when Zhou Miao's family caused trouble, he told them once but they wouldn't listen, so he stopped interfering and just told the others to prepare the goods as usual.
They came to help Zhou Miao give birth, but they weren't even part of the family compound. They'd have to leave sooner or later. They brought them along to earn a little money, but they never knew how to be satisfied.
Making a scene only ruins your own livelihood; you deserve it.
Back at the restaurant, Xing Zhu and Zhou's mother were both there.
The expedited paternity test results are in, confirming that the two are biological mother and daughter.
Xing Zhu also used forceful methods to retrieve the gold pig necklace from the Sun family, which was the only thing her husband had left behind.
Zhou's mother changed her surname as quickly as possible, and from then on she was called Shi Lan.
"Shishi, they came to thank you. Why do you look so unhappy after you went out? Did something unpleasant happen?"
Zhang Tong took the little guy from Chou Chou's hands.
Daqi drooled more than it drank tea, its little mouth was all wet, and Xiaoqi looked quite happy, its eyes wide with amazement.
Shishi pouted, "Shen Bingshan said there was trouble on the island, it was Zhou Miao who couldn't have a son. Xu Jianghai was on a mission, and her family went to the island to take care of her during childbirth, but they actually gave away her newborn daughter."
"Our seafood should be shipped over soon. Zhou Miao's mother and sister-in-law are unhappy with the deduction of air freight fees and want to make a huge profit without any investment."
Shi Lan: ? ? ?
Zhou Miao, Xu Jianghai, why do those names sound so familiar?
"Shishi, is Xu Jianghai a divorcee?"
Shishi asked in surprise, "How did you know?"
Zhang Tong and Xing Zhu also looked at Shi Lan and asked the same question.
Shi Lan's smile didn't reach her eyes. "If it were the Zhou Miao I know, her mother would definitely do it."
Should we call it a karmic entanglement? It turns out that the person I met a few years ago and the person I met a few years later share the same ancestor.
It turns out that Zhou Wenyan's father, Zhou Guohong, and Zhou Miao's father, Zhou Guosheng, are brothers.
Zhou Guohong was abandoned by his family because of his limp, but later he met Shi Lan by chance and the two got married.
After settling in Beijing, his family would contact him from time to time, including but not limited to coming to freeload. He had indeed been taken advantage of by them before.
Later, as Zhou Wenyan grew up, he would fight one by one, or two by two, and gradually the two families stopped having much contact.
It wasn't until Zhou Miao married a military officer that her mother, wanting to show off, specially asked someone to write a letter, and Shi Lan naturally learned about Zhou Miao and Xu Jianghai's affair.
“My sister-in-law is extremely sexist. When she gave birth to Zhou Miao, she gave her away. A year later, she couldn’t get pregnant again and found out she couldn’t have any more children. So she went and asked Zhou Miao to come back.”
“They raised their child for a year, and she just picked peaches like that, without giving them a single penny or a grain of rice. She even had a big fight with that family over it.”
Oh, so he has a criminal record. It's really unfortunate that his children are his family.
Shishi and Shen Yijin both underestimated how unreasonable a person can be. When they refused to accept her things, she actually threatened to jump into the sea, leaving everyone feeling uneasy.
Shen Yijin called helplessly, "Sister-in-law, this time we'll take the seafood from Zhou Miao's family first. Once Zhou Miao is out of confinement, I'll kick the two of them out of the family compound."
"How can that be? I'm a man of my word. You wait, I'll deal with them myself. They want to jump into the sea, huh? Then let them jump all they want."
She should go and get some high-quality pearls so that the big leaders can witness her "good luck" once again.
Coincidentally, she had just arrived at the island when Xu Jianghai returned after completing his mission.
"Shishi, you've finally come back to visit!"
"Shishi, these are your twin sons. They're so fair and tender, and so handsome."
"Shishi is really capable. She gave birth to four children in two pregnancies, which is twice as many as other women."
"Sister Zhang, you're back too! It's been so long, I missed you so much! Why didn't you bring Da Liu and Xiao Liu back?"
The familiar sisters-in-law swarmed around.
Former neighbors Yao Lixiang and women's director Liu Mei were also there.
Because it's the day for handing over seafood, all the families gather in the small square, which has become a tradition.
