Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Show off
Zhang Mengyu was so angry that she rushed over and beat Xiaopang up.
Don’t be fooled by Xiaopang’s name, he is actually not fat at all. He is as thin as a chicken egg. How could he be a match for Zhang Mengyu? So, not only was he beaten by Xiaoyu until he cried, but his face was also covered with blood and he hardly looked like a human being.
Zhang Mengyu was angry at him for talking nonsense and scolding her brother. She didn't hold back with every punch and soon Xiaopang was knocked to the ground and had no strength to struggle.
The kids next to them were confused at first, but later they tried their best to pull Zhang Mengyu away. However, they were no match for the angry Zhang Mengyu, and they failed to pull him away for a long time.
If Zhang's father hadn't come back and pulled his daughter away, Xiaopang might have really been beaten to death. After all, Zhang Mengyu was very strong and she didn't hold back.
"Mengzhi, are you following Xiaoyu's lead in making trouble? It's wrong for her to hit people."
Mr. Zhang is having a headache. Can’t this matter just be left alone?
"Dad, Xiaoyu and I are not fooling around. You can't admit the mistakes for me and my sister when our family has done nothing wrong!"
Zhang Mengzhi disagreed with his father's approach of settling the matter peacefully.
Zhang's father's character is honest, but in fact he is more like dough. He doesn't know how to fight back when being bullied. Of course, he is not always honest. His wife and children are his bottom line.
If he hadn't been really good to Zhang's mother, Zhang Mengzhi's grandparents would not have agreed to let their daughter marry him.
"Didn't she almost beat him to death?"
Father Zhang scratched his head. He only admitted his daughter's mistake because Xiaopang's crime did not deserve the death penalty!
"Then you can't admit your mistakes on my behalf!"
Zhang Mengzhi taught his father that he had to insist on what he should insist on, otherwise everyone would know that when Xiaoyu got into trouble, not only was there no protection from his father, but he would be scolded by Zhang's father. Who would take Xiaoyu seriously then?
"Okay, okay, I get it. I won't do it again."
Mr. Zhang’s main idea is to listen to advice. Over the years, he has proven that it is best to listen to his son, and he has never made any mistakes.
"Okay, now that we've made it clear, let's eat! The same goes for you, the child's father. Listen to your son more in the future and don't make decisions outside."
Mother Zhang stepped forward and spoke at this time.
"good."
Mr. Zhang agreed. He knew his own shortcomings, so he was willing to listen to his son and wife.
Everyone went to the kitchen to carry pots and bowls, and Zhang's mother and Zhang Mengyu also brought out the side dishes.
"Is this our son's craft?"
Mr. Zhang took only one bite of the scallion pancake and immediately knew who made it.
"Apart from my brother, who else in our family can make an ordinary scallion pancake so delicious!"
Zhang Mengyu ate with big mouthfuls while saying that she hadn't eaten her brother's cooking for a year and she missed it very much.
"We don't know who Meng Zhi inherited this from, but her cooking skills are incredible. Neither your family nor mine has this ability."
Mother Zhang looked at her son in confusion. The cooking skills of both families were very ordinary. The food was edible but not delicious.
But Zhang Mengzhi managed to make ordinary food taste like that from a high-end restaurant, which would make anyone who eats it confused!
"Isn't it good? We will have a good meal every day from now on."
Father Zhang didn't know who his son inherited the genes from, but he knew that they were the ones who got his son's good craftsmanship.
"That's true."
Mother Zhang no longer worried.
After dinner, Mother Zhang asked her daughter to clean up the pots and dishes, and took her husband and son to talk about the Wang family coming to cancel the engagement.
"Sure enough, they finally came. I didn't expect them to be delayed at all!"
Father Zhang sighed.
Although he disliked the Wang family, he had never thought about canceling the engagement before, and Zhang Mengzhi had not told him about her plans.
Many things were beyond his expectations, so Mr. Zhang was very upset.
"Old man, you haven't seen clearly what kind of family they are? If we continue to get entangled with them, something bad will happen sooner or later."
Zhang Mengzhi also wanted to sigh. This family really couldn't do without him.
Both parents are easy targets for bullying. If he hadn't intervened over the years, the Zhang family would have been swallowed up by the Wang family long ago.
At that time, the Zhang family would end up like in the book. After all, the Wang family had paid so much, but they wanted to cancel the engagement. No one would agree to that!
"I see clearly."
If Zhang's father said that he still didn't see clearly, his wife and children would scold him to wake him up. Especially his son, as long as he didn't say anything against him, it would be fine.
He is just honest, not stupid. A man who can work in the city and buy a house is really not stupid. He just thinks too highly of human nature.
"Alright, Dad. When they send the money over in three days, we will have nothing to do with the Wang family anymore."
Zhang Mengzhi comforted his wounded father's heart.
"I understand. Don't worry, son. From now on, I won't say hello to the Wang family members when I see them on the street. Is this okay?"
Mr. Zhang still knows what is going on.
"Yeah, that's right, Lao Zhang."
Mother Zhang said happily.
As for the benefits that the Wang family got from taking advantage of the Zhang family's influence, they would not bother with them. Because those benefits were intangible, they could not be bothered even if they wanted to.
But this doesn't mean that the matter has ended. The Zhang family is very protective of their people.
Zhang Mengzhi's cousins will definitely vent their anger on their own child. You know, Zhang Mengzhi is the only college student in their Zhang family and is treasured by the whole village!
"By the way, Mengzhi, you came back today and said you had good news to tell us. What is it?"
Mr. Zhang suddenly remembered what his son said at noon.
"Hey, Mom and Dad, wait for me."
Zhang Mengzhi ran back to the room and took out the admission letter.
"Dangdangdang, look."
Hand the admission letter to your parents.
"Mengzhi, did you get into college?"
Father Zhang yelled.
“Oh my god.”
Zhang's mother covered her mouth and looked at the admission letter in disbelief. Her family was well-off and she went to school when she was young, so she could read.
"Yes, that's right."
Zhang Mengzhi nodded. It was a university in their city, very close to home.
The university in their city was also a key university. Although it moved away later, it is still in their city in this era.
With Zhang Mengzhi's grades, he could have applied to any school in the provincial capital or Beijing, but he chose the university near his home because it was close to home!
He was very worried about his parents and sisters at home, so he chose this school on purpose.
As for whether he would regret it, he really wouldn't.
Because Zhang Mengzhi has a good plan for his life, after the country opens up to individual businesses in two years, he will take his family to do business.
In this era, there is gold everywhere and you can make money doing anything.
Zhang Mengzhi has had excellent cooking skills since he was a child. Before he traveled through time, he took a great chef as his master and received professional cooking training.
It can be said that there is no problem for him to open a restaurant.
However, opening a restaurant is still difficult for Zhang Mengzhi now. Not to mention that the country does not allow the emergence of self-employed individuals, what is more important is that the money in his family is not enough for him to open a store.
So he decided to start small and then gradually expand and become stronger.
Zhang Mengzhi had a dream, he wanted to open a national chain of fast food restaurants. He got angry when he thought about the foreign fast food restaurants invading China and seizing the market, letting foreigners make money from Chinese people.
So this time he wants to seize the market before foreign capital enters China, and he also wants to secure the leading position in the fast food restaurant industry with large quantity and affordable prices.
We will resolutely not allow foreign capital to make money from their people in the catering industry.
This ambitious dream is not easy to realize, so Zhang Mengzhi has to take it step by step and not rush.
Oh, and one more thing, the male protagonist can forget about rebuilding his business empire.
Given the author's distorted values, the business empire built by the protagonist must have been built using many improper means, and the Zhang family was just the first family destroyed by the protagonist.
"Brother, you are awesome. I will go tell Xiaopang right now."
When Zhang Mengyu learned that her brother was admitted to university, she immediately ran out of the Zhang family happily and went to show off to Xiaopang.
Her sister only got into a technical secondary school, but her brother is a serious college student.
In comparison, Little Fatty's technical secondary school is not impressive enough.
"Xiaopang, my brother got into college, but your sister still can't compare to him."
Zhang Mengyu stood at the door of Xiaopang's house and shouted inside.
The yard, which was originally filled with some noise, immediately became quiet after about half a minute.
"Ah~ Zhang Mengyu, you are lying. How could your brother possibly get into college?"
Xiaopang rushed out, his bruised and purple face full of anger.
"I'm not lying. My brother has already received his admission letter. He will be a college student when school starts."
Zhang Mengyu looked proudly at Xiaopang and his sister who followed behind him.
"Xiaoyu, are you telling the truth?"
The chubby sister asked somewhat bitterly.
She originally thought that she had defeated Zhang Mengyu once, but reality told her that Zhang Mengyu was still the same Zhang Mengyu, and it was extremely difficult to defeat him.
"Of course it's true! It's the best university in our city."
Zhang Mengyu touched her nose and felt a little embarrassed towards the fat sister.
As Zhang Mengzhi's younger sister, her parents did not compare her with her brother, but that does not mean she does not know what her neighbors think.
Not to mention the adults, they all envied Zhang's parents for having such a good son. But her peers hated her brother to death. Her brother's existence was a blow to her peers and would continue to be their nightmare.
Anyway, Zhang Mengyu hears parents using her brother to motivate their children every day, and the effect can be seen from their hatred.
"Yeah?"
After getting a positive answer, Little Fat Sister lowered her head and walked back to the yard in silence.
"Mom, I still don't stand a chance. He's better."
She threw herself into her mother's arms.
"I told you to give up, but you didn't listen."
The chubby mother hugged her daughter and spoke with rare tenderness.
She understood her daughter's thoughts, as she had gone through the same thing herself. But people have to accept their fate, as some people are beyond their reach in their lifetime.
“Woo…”
Sister Xiaopang cried very sadly, which made Zhang Mengyu, who came to show off outside the yard, look at Xiaopang at a loss.
"What happened to your sister?"
The crying was so loud that she could hear it outside the yard.
