Chapter 246 You Almost Were Late
Although this was just his guess, and Huo Xinran might not have really schemed against Cai Wenhua, Huo Chenzhou felt that it was probably true.
He grew up with Huo Xinran, and Huo Chenzhou basically knew what kind of person Huo Xinran was.
Huo Xinran is capable of doing things like this.
Shen Zhixia said speechlessly, "Huo Xinran... she really dares to do that."
You have to understand that this era was very conservative, and people kept quiet about matters between men and women. It was surprising that Huo Xinran was so bold.
What she did would be considered groundbreaking even by today's standards.
Huo Chenzhou said helplessly, "There are all kinds of people. As for what those people do, we just need to observe from the sidelines. Just don't get involved. You can rest assured. Over the years, there have been people who wanted to scheme against me and others who wanted to gain benefits from me, but they have all failed. If I let them succeed so easily, then I would have lived in vain."
He touched Shen Zhixia's hair and couldn't help but marvel at how smooth it was.
"You have to believe in your man's abilities; he won't be defeated so easily."
Huo Chenzhou was genuinely not worried about Cai Wenhua. To him, Cai Wenhua was just a small fry. You see, his rivals had tried all sorts of tricks to harm him, but none of them had any effect on him, let alone a mere soldier.
Shen Zhixia rested her head on his chest and mumbled sleepily, "Okay, I believe you."
She was very tired and wanted to sleep, but she was a clean person and felt sticky and uncomfortable all over.
She then tugged at Huo Chenzhou's hand and said, "I want to take a shower, but I'm too lazy to."
Huo Chenzhou immediately said, "I'll carry you there."
After saying that, he turned over and got up.
He was happy to help Shen Zhixia take a bath.
The thermos in the house was filled with hot water, so Huo Chenzhou filled the basin with water and started to help Shen Zhixia take a bath. But as he was washing her, his hands started to get a little unruly.
Shen Zhixia hit him, but she was too sleepy and eventually fell asleep.
Huo Chenzhou dried her off and carried her to the bed without her even noticing.
When I woke up the next day, Huo Chenzhou was already gone.
I slept well all night.
Shen Zhixia was quite satisfied with this. She felt that Huo Chenzhou was becoming more and more skilled at serving people, and she had indeed trained Huo Chenzhou very well.
Indeed, every man is suitable to be a husband, as long as they are willing to put in the effort.
Shen Zhixia was in a good mood. She felt very dry, and it was clear that Huo Chenzhou had wiped her body. She could also smell a faint fragrance emanating from her body.
Mrs. Huo had already prepared breakfast: eggs and several steamed buns. As Shen Zhixia ate, she praised, "Mom, your steamed buns are so delicious."
The two babies are drinking milk, busy biting their bottles.
Mrs. Huo looked at the two babies with a kind smile, her face beaming: "Drink slowly, be careful not to choke."
She then said to Shen Zhixia, "If you like it, I'll make it for you again next time."
The steamed buns made by Huo's mother were indeed delicious, big and soft, all made with old dough. Making steamed buns is a skill, and not everyone can make them well. Anyway, Shen Zhixia had tried to make steamed buns before, and the taste was just not good.
"Okay, I'll go to work now," Shen Zhixia said.
Mrs. Huo nodded and said, "Go ahead."
Shen Zhixia said, "Mom, thank you so much. I have to ask you to take care of the child while I'm at work."
Taking care of children is a very troublesome thing. Shen Zhixia admitted that she went to work partly because she wanted to avoid becoming a housewife. However, she was not avoiding taking care of children. She was just afraid that if she stayed out of society for too long, she would only be able to focus on her children and husband.
Although Huo Chenzhou is treating her well now, it's uncertain what will happen in the future. She can't always pin her happiness on someone else.
That's why she has to go to work.
But when she went to work, Huo's mother had to take on the responsibility of taking care of the child, which made Huo's mother busy again, and she felt a little guilty.
Mrs. Huo glanced at her, then waved her hand dismissively, saying, "Alright, go to work. I'm fine. I really love children. I'd be happy to come and take care of them. Besides, I was bored at home anyway, so now I have something to do and I get paid. I'm more than happy to do that."
Shen Zhixia asked, "Mom, do you really think so?"
Mrs. Huo said, "Of course I'll dig. That's what I truly believe, so don't overthink it. Go to work now."
Shen Zhixia nodded and said, "Okay, I'm leaving now."
The two babies seemed to know that Shen Zhixia was leaving, and they started babbling.
Shen Zhixia picked them up and kissed each of them on the cheek. She said with a smile, "Mommy's leaving. Be good and wait for me at home, okay?"
The two babies waved their hands in response to her, as if they understood what she was saying.
Shen Zhixia exclaimed in surprise, "You can understand what I'm saying?"
Mrs. Huo smiled and said, "They are intelligent too. They are often with us, so it's normal that they can understand some of what we say."
Shen Zhixia said shyly, "I thought you were always the one taking care of the babies, and that they weren't very close to me. But it seems they are quite close to me. They even know when I go to work."
"You are the baby's mother, and they are naturally close to you."
Seeing that it was almost time and there was no time to waste, Shen Zhixia hurriedly said, "I have to go, or I'll be late."
The factory wasn't far from here. Shen Zhixia usually walked there, but this time she jogged over and arrived in no time.
She glanced at her watch; she was still a minute away from being late. She arrived just in time.
fortunately.
Actually, being late once wouldn't be a big deal; at most, it would just mean a deduction in salary, which Shen Zhixia didn't care about. However, she had some obsessive-compulsive tendencies and didn't want to be late.
As soon as she arrived at the factory, Huang Lu glanced at her and said unhappily, "Shen Zhixia, you were almost late."
Shen Zhixia said, "I checked the time, there's still one minute left. I was almost late, but I'm still a little bit late, right? I'm not late."
Huang Lu's malice was too strong; if the other party's attitude was bad, she naturally wouldn't have a good attitude either.
Besides, whether someone is late or not is not Huang Lu's responsibility, so why is she so bothered by it?
Huang Lu snorted but didn't say anything, though her eyes were cold.
It's inexplicable.
Just then, Su Qiang walked over and coughed, "Comrade Chen, you should come earlier in the future. After all, the factory is not your home. When you come to work at the factory, you should abide by the rules."
