The next day, Zhen Wanwan couldn't sleep for the first half of the night due to anxiety, and only fell asleep close to dawn.
Therefore, she only woke up after Old Lady Li had finished cooking.
The fact that her two little babies were sucking their fingers because they were so hungry made her, as their mother, seem like a terrible incompetent mother.
Zhen Wanwan chuckled awkwardly, "Hehe, my darlings, you must be starving! I'll make you some milk right away!"
After her two babies, Guabao and Tianbao, were able to sleep through the night, she started taking care of them herself.
Grandma Li is preparing to make steamed buns today so she can eat them on the boat while traveling, since she hasn't had time to come and visit them.
As it turns out, Zhen Wanwan overslept, and the two babies could only silently wait for their mother to wake up, hungry.
The little one sighed helplessly, "Mommy loves to sleep in too much!"
I wish he were a little older!
She can make her own milk and help take care of her younger sister.
Sweetie stared at Zhen Wanwan with a pitiful look on her face. Her mother was working so hard taking care of them and didn't get enough sleep!
When she grows up, she will definitely repay her mother.
Zhen Wanwan sped up and quickly prepared the milk for them. Just then, Da Ni came over to call her for dinner.
He and Da Ni each carried a chubby baby and walked towards the living room. Besides the Zhen family, the Zhou family, Dongzi family, Wang Er family, and the Qu family mother and son were already at the dining table.
There were so many people today that the children couldn't squeeze into their own tables, so they had to sit with the Zhou family's wives.
After placing her two babies, Guabao and Tianbao, in their cradles, Zhen Wanwan could eat her meal in peace.
She always felt like she had forgotten something!
But let's talk about it after we finish eating; everyone's here anyway.
Sister-in-law Zhou smiled and served everyone a bite of food, acting as the atmosphere maker in the living room.
Faced with such an amazing person, Zhen Wanwan couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
"We're going to have a good meal today! Everyone, grab the fish and eat!"
"Yes! We need to eat and drink well before we board the ship, otherwise we might have to wait another month to have a proper meal!"
Grandpa Zhen generously accepted the wine that Zhen Wanwan had given him.
He straightened his back and said, "How can we have meat without wine? Everyone, please try the wine my daughter gave me!"
"This tastes amazing!"
Grandpa Zhen imitated Zhen Wanwan's action by giving a thumbs up and proudly poured himself a glass first.
"Boss, pour your brothers a few drinks. Everyone, don't be shy, come and have a taste..."
Zhou Dashan, standing nearby, was so excited his face turned red. He had been eyeing Zhen Wanwan's wine for a long time, but unfortunately he didn't have the money and was too embarrassed to ask Zhen's family for some.
"Uncle! We're really lucky to have gotten a chance to drink a pot of wine brewed by a young lady this time. We're living the life of a god!"
"Hahaha...Let's eat, let's eat..."
Grandpa Zhen was so flattered that he smiled from ear to ear.
Grandma Li chuckled and scolded him a couple of times, saying that he was still acting like a child even in his old age.
Everyone knew that the couple had a good relationship, and they all smiled broadly, making the elderly couple feel embarrassed.
Zhen Wanwan also had a big smile on her face, like an aunt.
Qu Huaiyuan was persuaded by Zhen Fu to drink a few sips of wine, which made him choke and turn his face red, a stark contrast to his usual image.
The wives at the table were laughing so hard they could barely stand up straight.
Anyone who sees the usually gentle and refined Mr. Qu transformed like this would burst out laughing!
In fact, Zhen Wanwan didn't understand why the women present all enjoyed watching Qu Huaiyuan make a fool of himself.
She guessed it might be because of the contrast between her appearance and her personality!
Of course, it's also possible that it's simply because Qu Huaiyuan is good-looking, which is why people pay more attention to him.
We thoroughly enjoyed the meal!
With her aunts and sisters-in-law cleaning up the mess, Zhen Wanwan took the child and went home.
I only remembered something I had forgotten halfway through the journey.
It seems she forgot to tell Granny Zhang and Yun'er the day she was leaving!
"Oh no! My older brothers are both drunk, who am I supposed to get to run errands for me?!"
If no one is around, she has no choice but to go out herself!
"Da Ni, go and call Grandma over!"
Da Ni answered loudly, "Okay, Auntie! I'll go right away!"
After Old Lady Li arrived, Zhen Wanwan made it clear that she wanted to find Granny Zhang and Yun'er.
"Mom, could you please take care of Guabao and Tianbao for a bit? I'll be right back!"
Grandma Li sighed helplessly: "Go ahead!"
Human hearts are treacherous! I wonder if my daughter will ever be able to find her family again!
It has to be said that Grandma Li inadvertently hit the nail on the head!
Granny Zhang and Yun'er have disappeared!
Shop owners and neighbors living next to the Zhang family said they hadn't seen them this morning.
Could she have been... scammed?
Before Zhen Wanwan could even start to have any wild thoughts, a group of soldiers walked over.
"Get out of the way!"
With a startled shout, Zhen Wanwan was pushed to the side of the road by the soldiers, startling the surrounding onlookers who began to discuss the matter.
They surrounded the ruins that were once the Zhang family's house, now reduced to ashes.
The remaining officers and soldiers stepped into the filthy ruins, seemingly searching for something.
Seeing this scene, Zhen Wanwan felt a chill run down her spine; it seemed she had really gotten herself into a troublesome situation.
Zhang Mama and Yun'er's enemy was someone with a higher status than she had imagined!
It's unclear whether their disappearance is related to this group, but it's possible they were indeed captured by enemies.
She couldn't save them anyway!
Zhen Wanwan secretly groaned. Right now, she shouldn't be thinking about whether or not to save people, but whether she would get involved!
Run! We have to run!
Zhen Wanwan slipped away and ran back to the house where she was staying at Wu Sheng's place.
Wu Sheng had just figured something out and wanted to talk business with Zhen Wanwan.
She looked like she was being chased by a ghost.
"Madam Zhen! What's the matter that you're in such a hurry?"
Upon seeing Wu Sheng, Zhen Wanwan regained some of her composure.
"Mr. Wu!"
It has not yet been confirmed whether the Zhang family members were truly kidnapped by their enemies, so Zhen Wanwan could not reveal anything.
If something really happens, she probably won't be able to forgive herself even as a ghost!
Wu Sheng strolled over leisurely, his small eyes crinkling with a smile as he teased, "Zhen Niangzi, you're always rushing around like this, I hope you don't get chased and bitten by a dog!"
Zhen Wanwan awkwardly wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"That's right! I was thinking of going out to buy some snacks for the kids, but I ended up being chased by two stray dogs!"
As if to confirm what Zhen Wanwan said, several barks were indeed heard outside the door.
Wu Sheng laughed loudly twice: "The more afraid you are of this dog, the more arrogant it becomes!"
"Come on! There are some things I'd like to talk to you about again!"
Wu Sheng led Zhen Wanwan to the living room, picked up a glass of ice water, and found it tasteless.
It would have been better if Zhenwan had given him the lemonade on the way.
Zhen Wanwan had something on her mind and didn't want to linger, so she spoke first: "Mr. Wu, have you thought about our cooperation?"
Wu Sheng put down his teacup, looked up at Zhen Wanwan, and said, "That's right! I've thought about the cooperation method you proposed yesterday, and I think it's worth a try!"
Although she had already guessed that Wu Sheng would agree, Zhen Wanwan was still slightly stunned for a few seconds.
She laughed and said, "That's great! There's no time like the present, let's sign the agreement today!"
"No rush!"
