Chapter 198 New Friends (Page 1/2)
Mother Wu lived for most of her life, and she lived a decent life for most of her life.
Wu's father had a good career, and whenever she went out, she was always flattered by others.
A decent person like her never expected that one day she would be accused of sucking other people's blood.
Mother Wu was mortified and annoyed. "Chen Baomei, stop talking nonsense! I have a pension. I don't need Niuniu to support me, and I won't suck her blood!"
Chen Baomei was insulting her.
Mother Wu was so angry that her face turned blue and her lips trembled.
Chen Baomei sneered, as if to say, "Do you think I will believe that?"
So what if she has a pension? There are many elderly people living alone with pensions who are sick or paralyzed and live a miserable life.
People who have one foot in the coffin are most afraid of loneliness, especially people like Wu's mother who once had a glorious life.
"What happened in the past will remain the same. Since you never thought of treating Niuniu well from the beginning, then never bother her again. Her life will still be wonderful without you."
Chen Baomei pulled Niu Niu into the car.
Mother Wu chased after him and tried to stop him, but her high heels got stuck in the gap of the manhole cover, and the gift bag in her hand flew out.
The learning machine fell out of the bag and broke into pieces.
Wu's mother was angry and anxious, and she pulled the shoe hard, and ended up breaking the heel.
Watching Chen Baomei driving away, she could only drag her tattered shoes to wait for the bus. Mother Wu felt a breath held in her chest and almost fainted.
Niuniu looked at Mother Wu, who was gradually getting smaller in the rearview mirror, and said worriedly, "Grandma, she won't pester me, will she?"
"She can't enter your school, so don't be afraid of her. I'll tell your teacher later to prevent anyone from letting her in and getting close to you."
Niu Niu's grades are among the best. If you tell the teacher that Wu's mother will affect her studies, the teacher will definitely not let Wu's mother see Niu Niu.
Niu Niu usually goes between home and school, and doesn't have many opportunities to interact with Wu's mother.
"She's just an old woman who's lost her power. She probably wants to lure you in with some small favors. If she needs you, she'll change her attitude and come to you to show her affection. You can't ignore such a person even if she talks big."
Niuniu nodded, "I know, I won't recognize her."
She is not a child anymore. She knows clearly who is sincere to her and who is thinking about her wholeheartedly.
In her heart, only her grandmother is her most important relative, and no one can compare to her grandmother.
Wu's mother came to the school gate to block Niu Niu every weekend, but Chen Baomei and Niu Niu deliberately avoided her.
As for the residential complex, Wu's mother could not enter without the owner's consent.
After struggling for a while, Wu's mother gave up and turned her attention to Wu Hui, who had a lame leg.
Although Wu Hui has one leg disabled, after treatment and training, he looks no different from a normal person if you don't lift up his trouser legs.
He had poor grades and failed to get into high school, so Shen Qin sent him to a vocational school to learn skills, specializing in making cakes and pastries.
In the past, Wu's mother looked down on these low-level workers, but now it is different.
She had to consider the future of herself and her daughter. She might need Wu Hui's help in the future, so it was particularly important to ease the relationship with Wu Hui.
After all, she helped raise Wu Hui, and he still bears the Wu family's surname.
With the experience of failure in dealing with Niu Niu, Wu's mother was not as radical as before. Instead, she appeared in front of Wu Hui from time to time, sometimes giving him some money to spend, and sometimes buying him game consoles and figures that boys like.
Wu Hui is different from Niu Niu. Over time, these small favors really won over Wu Hui.
When Shen Qin found out, Wu Hui started to call his mother "Grandma" affectionately again.
Since Wu's mother didn't come to harass Niu Niu, Chen Baomei and Niu Niu were happy to have some peace and quiet.
As for whether Wu Wenwan will ask Niuniu for support after she is released ten years later, that is something to worry about in the future.
It’s still early.
Wu Wenwan had never raised Niu Niu, so it would be too difficult to expect Niu Niu to take care of her in her old age based on that little blood relationship.
Besides, she has a son, so it’s definitely not Niu Niu’s turn.
Jiang Qiqi passed the re-examination and successfully became a master of law student.
Shen Ru was proud of Jiang Qiqi's excellence. Since there was still some time before she had to report to her tutor, Shen Ru specially called Jiang Qiqi back to hold a small graduation banquet and invite everyone to dinner.
This time it was different from when she was admitted to university. Shen Ru invited all her family members.
Jiang Tianming planned to hold a graduation banquet on his own to entertain his friends and relatives. Jiang Qiqi agreed, so he did not come to the Shen family's graduation banquet.
Without Jiang Tianming, a stranger, Chen Baomei thought that it was just their family having dinner together.
Who knew that just as they started, Shen Ru went out for a while and brought in a middle-aged man.
Shen Ru introduced herself to everyone with some embarrassment, "This is my friend Meng Tianzheng. He came here to do something and we just happened to meet. He knew we were having dinner here, so he came over to get to know us."
The other person was dressed like an elite, polite and elegant, and spoke very courteously.
After greeting everyone, Meng Zheng took out a red envelope and handed it to Jiang Qiqi. "Uncle learned from your mother that you were admitted to graduate school. I had prepared a red envelope for you a long time ago, thinking that I would give it to you someday. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence today."
Jiang Qiqi looked at Shen Ru, and only accepted the red envelope when she saw Shen Ru nod.
Shen Ru: "Tianzheng, why don't you sit down and eat together."
Meng Tianzheng: "How can this be so embarrassing, I..."
"Didn't your friend just leave? You haven't eaten yet, why don't you eat something together?"
Seeing that Chen Ru had asked to stay, the Chen Rui couple and Lu Qionghua who were present also politely asked each other to stay for dinner.
Meng Tianzheng smiled and said, "Then I'd better obey your command. Sorry for bothering you."
Someone was asked to bring more chairs and bowls, and the atmosphere became lively again.
But everyone's attention was focused on the newcomer, Mr. Meng.
Lu Qionghua asked jokingly, "Sister, how did you get to know Mr. Meng? How long have you known each other?"
Any normal person would think that the relationship between Shen Ru and Meng Tianzheng is unusual, and it has probably already exceeded the scope of ordinary friends.
Chen Ru felt a little embarrassed and annoyed by Lu Qionghua's ambiguous look.
She blushed and said vaguely: "A friend introduced it to me. It's been a while."
"How old are you, Mr. Meng?"
"Forty-six."
"You're not much older than my elder sister. Are you also from Yangcheng?"
"People from the Magic City..."
They talked at once, asking Meng Tianzheng questions this and that, and Meng Tianzheng answered them one by one with ease.
Chen Baomei had almost finished her meal. She put down her chopsticks and slowly asked, "Is Mr. Meng married?"
