It's a shame she didn't believe Sister Ling before that Wen Qiao was a scheming woman.
In retrospect, Wen Qiao was indeed very scheming.
She's definitely a bad woman.
Wen Qiao's mood was unusually good today because she had pushed Wang Zhihui down.
When she returned to the Shen family home, the kitchen was still cold and deserted, but she wasn't dissatisfied.
Li Ling never liked cooking, and now that her finger is injured, she's just looking for an excuse to be lazy.
Self-reliance leads to abundance. Wen Qiao is a good cook, so making food for herself is a piece of cake.
She happened to have brought some vegetables from the supply and marketing cooperative today. She has some money now, but she still owes Shen Jichuan for her school fees, and she is also worried about her mother back home.
Try to spend less money and save more money.
Having money gives you confidence.
While Wen Qiao was cooking in the kitchen, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from the doorway. She didn't know if it was Shen Haiyang or Shen Jichuan, but whoever it was, it didn't really matter to her.
Wen Qiao didn't interfere much.
Just as she continued cooking, she suddenly heard a voice.
"I forgot to tell you, Sister Ling went back to the old house for a few days."
Wen Qiao turned her head and saw that it was Shen Jichuan, and he was all alone.
“It’s okay, she doesn’t know how to cook for me anyway. I’m used to cooking for myself. I brought some vegetables from the supply and marketing cooperative today.”
"Have you eaten? If not, I'll cook more."
Shen Jichuan didn't eat. Perhaps it was because after talking to Wen Qiao that day, he kept thinking about it. Every day after finishing his work at the office, he had an urgent desire to go home.
"Thank you for your help."
Wen Qiao chuckled and said, "It's no trouble at all. I was worried you might think my cooking was too bland. So I'll add another dish."
If it were just her, a simple vegetable dish would suffice.
Seeing that Shen Jichuan wanted to eat, Wen Qiao bent down and took out a few eggs from the earthenware pot under the cabinet.
We happen to have some green peppers; stir-fried eggs with peppers would make a great dish.
Seeing that Shen Jichuan hadn't left, Wen Qiao took the initiative to strike up a conversation.
“With Sister Ling not home, how are you going to eat breakfast and lunch? I can only cook when I get back in the evening. I don’t have time during the day because I have to go to work.”
When Shen Jichuan heard Wen Qiao mention going to work, he asked her a question.
Where do you work? Are you very busy?
Wen Qiao concealed the fact that no job is superior or inferior.
There's nothing shameful about earning money with your own hands.
He then told the truth: "I work as a temporary worker in the purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative. The salary is not high, but it is still an income. It's just that when I'm busy, I have to go to the countryside to collect vegetables, which is why I don't have time to come back at noon."
After Wen Qiao finished speaking, Shen Jichuan gave a faint "hmm".
He then asked Wen Qiao how her accounting studies were going.
Wen Qiao said, "It's alright!"
I watched as she skillfully chopped and stir-fried vegetables.
Perhaps it was because of the heat, but she had fine beads of sweat on her forehead as she kept busy.
Shen Jichuan seemed to have something to say, but didn't know what to say.
He then turned around, changed his clothes, washed his hands, and prepared to eat.
Wen Qiao brought the food to the table just as Shen Jichuan came over.
A stir-fried vegetable dish, a stir-fried egg with chili peppers, and the steamed rice is ready.
Shen Jichuan frowned slightly as he looked at the simple meal, which Wen Qiao noticed.
He then said, "I didn't buy any groceries, so please make do with this."
"Otherwise, you can eat in the cafeteria for the next few days."
I'll cook for him when Li Ling comes back.
Anyway, she couldn't possibly stay at the Shen family's house and cook for Shen Jichuan.
Even with low wages, you still have to go to work.
Shen Jichuan picked up his chopsticks and first tasted the food.
Then he said, "The food was simple, but it tasted good."
I gave Sister Ling some great ingredients, but she couldn't make it taste good.
Wen Qiao knew, and Shen Jichuan knew too.
Wen Qiao looked at Shen Jichuan and said softly, "Sir, if I may ask you something, you know that Sister Ling's cooking is not good, and sometimes, many of her behaviors go beyond what a nanny should do. Why don't you fire her?"
After Wen Qiao finished asking the question, she saw that Shen Jichuan did not speak.
She then realized that she might have really said the wrong thing.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked."
Shen Jichuan then said, "There's nothing I shouldn't ask. She's from the old house and has been working for the Shen family since she was very young. Later, when I adopted Haiyang, my mother said that I, as a man, couldn't take good care of the child, so she asked her to help me take care of Haiyang."
"As long as she doesn't do anything outrageous, she won't be fired for the time being."
Wen Qiao nodded.
Busy started eating.
She had to go to night school later and didn't have time to chat with Shen Jichuan.
After quickly finishing her meal, Wen Qiao took her bowl and chopsticks to the kitchen before going upstairs.
"Sir, just leave the bowls and chopsticks on the table after you finish eating, and I'll clean them up when I get back."
"I have to go to class now."
Wen Qiao had just left the house and arrived at the entrance of the military family compound.
As luck would have it, they bumped into Shen Haiyang talking to someone.
"Then let's get engaged first. Don't worry, I will definitely take responsibility for you."
"Xuelan, you are the woman I love most in this life. My father and Uncle Yang have some political disputes. Maybe if we get married, we can ease the tension between them."
Yang Xuelan asked softly and gently, her voice tinged with doubt.
"Really? I ran into Sister Ling this morning. She went shopping with your aunt. When I greeted her, I heard her talking to your aunt about Wen Qiao..."
“Haiyang, Wen Qiao is your childhood sweetheart. What if she makes a scene if we get married? I know it’s not easy for her to come to the city from the countryside, but there’s no room for a third party in this relationship.”
Wen Qiao's beauty made Yang Xuelan feel very threatened.
She also knew that Shen Haiyang was interested in her mostly because she was Yang Hongyu's daughter.
But she also knew that in the Yang family, she was neither as good as her brother nor as good as her sister; she was someone her parents neither loved nor cared for.
She must marry Shen Haiyang as soon as possible.
Shen Haiyang is Shen Jichuan's adopted son. Shen Jichuan has been single for decades and has only this one adopted son. Everything in the Shen family will definitely belong to Shen Haiyang in the future.
As long as she gets close to Shen Haiyang, she'll never have to worry about food or drink for the rest of her life, and it won't matter if her parents don't love her.
Yang Xuelan knew that Shen Haiyang liked her most when she knew when to advance and retreat.
In just a few words, he touched Shen Haiyang's heart.
"Xuelan, don't worry, I will only love you in this life. I will talk to my dad, so just wait patiently."
Yang Xuelan nodded obediently.
Just then, he looked up and saw Wen Qiao walking out of the main gate. She affectionately kissed Shen Haiyang on the cheek.
But his eyes and brows betrayed his provocation towards Wen Qiao.
So what if Wen Qiao is Shen Haiyang's childhood sweetheart? Shen Haiyang still loves her the most.
Wen Qiao looked at them with disgust, as if she had seen two grotesque maggots.
