"the same as you!"
Zhou Hongyu let go of her eldest daughter and showed off the remittance slip.
"Look, this is the prize money Shuying won in the competition!"
Chang Shuying blushed shyly as her mother showed her off to her for the first time.
Granny Zhou and Granny Chang praised her repeatedly.
Chang Meiying adores her older sister the most, and she laughed and cheered her on.
Looking at the remittance slip, Granny Zhou suddenly remembered something: she had several such remittance slips at home!
Granny Zhou shoved the remittance slip into Granny Chang's hand and pulled Zhou Hongyu along, saying, "Let's go over there and say a few words!"
“Hongyu, Mom forgot something. You said you would take care of me in my old age, and your brother and sister sent back a lot of money, specifically asking for it to be given to you!”
Zhou Hongyu exclaimed, "Mom, if you can't remember, this money really has to be saved forever!"
Granny Zhou angrily raised her hand and slapped him: "What a nuisance!"
"I'll get you the money when I get home tonight. Don't get so excited you can't sleep all night!"
Zhou Hongyu raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "Mom, you make it sound so amazing. Does that mean my brother and sister have emptied the family's coffers?"
Granny Zhou slapped her a few times: "If I give you money, you'd better take it obediently and not try to act cute here!"
He withdrew his hand and said, "This is a lot of money. You can't spend it recklessly. Your second son will definitely be a capable person in the future. Wait until he asks you for money before you take it out to subsidize the child!"
Zhou Hongyu turned his head away, looking uninterested. I even spent money on him, and it's already an act of kindness on my part not to ask him for the money back!
Compensation for emotional distress!
Because her eldest daughter won a prize of 2,000 yuan in the competition, Zhou Hongyu generously treated the store's employees to a meal at a restaurant, and this time they could bring their families along.
When Chen Lijuan told the others about tonight's arrangements, it immediately drew cheers and excitement.
Zhou Bing is still overseeing the renovations at the branch store; someone needs to be sent over to inform him.
Wu Xiufang completely disliked Zhou Bing because of the misunderstanding she had last time, and she couldn't stand him, so she refused to go.
Wang Qiang pretended to be stupid and didn't want to go.
Wen Zhixin looked left and right, and finally reluctantly accepted the job.
It's alright. Gold shines wherever it is. As long as he does more work, he'll eventually catch the boss's eye and maybe one day he'll become a branch manager.
Chang Shuying happily handed over the prize money.
Chen Lijuan watched with a pained expression. Two thousand yuan! Young people really don't know how to cherish things!
When Chen Zhaodi heard that Zhou Hongyu was hosting a dinner, she suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
When Zhou Hongyu saw her, she waved her over and said, "Go find the old lady who helped you buy the house last time. I want to buy another house!"
Chen Zhaodi hesitated, "I've already had three houses bought by her. If you want, go find her yourself..."
Zhou Hongyu's eyes flashed fiercely, and Chen Zhaodi immediately changed her mind: "I'll go, okay?"
Sigh, just because of his greed for this one bite of food, he has to be caught by Zhou Hongyu and kept busy doing chores for her.
After finishing her sentence, Chen Zhaodi, not to be outdone, made another request: "I'm treating everyone to dinner tonight, could I bring a young man along? He's someone my family introduced to Huaying! Let's take advantage of this rare opportunity tonight so the two girls can meet..."
"No!" Zhou Hongyu rejected her ruthlessly before she could finish speaking.
Chen Jiajing is a bunch of unreliable bastards, except for Chen Lijuan. It's obvious without even thinking that the young man introduced by the Chen family is completely unworthy of her.
Chen Zhaodi gritted her teeth; she couldn't beat him, so she endured it!
Finally, Chen Lijuan counted the number of people: twenty-two!
Chen Zhaodi was so shocked that she forgot Zhou Hongyu's harsh words to her and started chatting with Chen Lijuan about the people who had come to dinner with her that night.
Twenty-two people!
Zhou Hongyu is bleeding heavily!

At a small roadside inn next to the train station, Chang Guofu was packing his bags, ready to depart.
Thump thump thump—
The hotel owner knocked on the door, and Cai Xinran stood awkwardly beside him.
After knocking on the door, the hotel owner scanned the room from top to bottom with a scrutinizing gaze again, and asked, "Are you two really a couple?"
Cai Xinran nodded hurriedly, not daring to speak, afraid that the hotel owner would find out something.
The hotel owner's face darkened, and he became increasingly suspicious that Cai Xinran had an improper relationship with the man inside.
but……
His gaze swept over Cai Xinran's slightly protruding belly. She was pregnant, so she couldn't be too lawless!
"What are you doing! Why are you knocking on the door!"
Chang Guofu opened the door with a fierce look on his face. The hotel owner was frightened by the sight and quickly made an excuse to leave.
These two scoundrels don't look like good people. He needs to report the situation to the police station!
"Guofu, don't be so fierce, it will hurt the child if he hears it..." Cai Xinran's tone was extremely gentle.
Chang Guofu, however, still had a fierce look on his face. He welcomed Cai Xinran into the door and then ignored her, focusing on unpacking her luggage.
"Guofu, can you stop for a moment? I have something to tell you..." Cai Xinran said anxiously.
"Just say what you want to say, we need to catch our train soon!"
"I'm a little reluctant..." to go to Hong Kong with you!
At this moment, Chang Guofu suddenly turned around and asked, "Where are the things you wanted to take? Give them to me, I'll pack them in for you!"
At this point, Cai Xinran finally mustered the courage to reveal her plans.
"Guofu, you should go to Hong Kong by yourself. I'll come find you after I give birth, once you've settled down there!"
Chang Guofu sneered: "Go if you want, don't go if you don't. I'm not begging you to go. Anyway, I've already resigned, and I'm definitely going to Hong Kong!"
A few days ago, A-Kuan hurriedly left Beijing, saying that there was an emergency at his business in the south that he needed to go back to deal with.
