Chapter 86: Encounter with Xu Yin and Chen's Mother
Hong Youliang was simply dumbfounded.
They moved and stopped setting up the stall, so his mother could only go to the school to make a scene. Could his wife drop out of school?
Others may not know how hard his wife worked to go to college, but Hong Youliang knows it best.
In other words, his mother would definitely come to visit if she knew where his wife was studying in college.
Hong Youliang's eyes shrank slightly in fear.
He immediately lowered his head in fear, his eyes evasive, unable to utter a word.
When Li Fen saw him like this, the anger that had just subsided suddenly burst out again.
"Okay, you and your mother are in cahoots, you won't stop until you kill me and Niuniu, right?"
"If I divorce you and return you to your mother, will your mother stop making trouble?"
Hong Youliang's heart skipped a beat and his face was full of disbelief.
My legs were so weak from fear that I said, "Mother, if you don't want a divorce, we won't get a divorce!"
Li Fen ignored him.
"I never forced you before, but now your mother wants both our lives."
"My life doesn't matter, but our Niuniu is innocent."
"Do you want me and Niuniu, or your mother? You choose!"
"I'm telling you, don't think you can just hide away like before without saying anything. I won't buy it. If you don't choose, I'll choose for you!"
Hong Youliang panicked!
Unprecedented panic...
On the other side, after Xia Keqing and the other two left, He Xiaolan complained about Hong Youliang a few words, and then the three of them tacitly stopped mentioning Sister Fen's family.
After all, every family has its own problems.
As outsiders, they can complain about this matter but they cannot easily make decisions for others.
Even the most naive He Xiaolan understands this truth.
"Juanzi, we are going to Keqing's store in a while. Do you have anything to do? If not, let's go together!"
“Let me tell you, Keqing’s shop is so big and beautiful!”
Xia Keqing: ...
Her store will definitely look good after it is renovated, but now it is still in a rough state and she doesn’t know what looks good about it.
But since my roommate said it looks good, then it must look good!
Zhao Juan was a little surprised.
It has actually only been half a month since Xia Keqing returned from Shenzhen.
So efficient? Even the shop is ready?
If it was someone else's shop, Zhao Juan would not be very interested in it and it would have nothing to do with her. But this is my roommate’s first store, so she has to give her some face.
It just so happens that she has nothing to do for a while.
The three girls made an appointment to go to the store together.
It only took a few minutes' walk to reach the store. The workers in the store were working in full swing, even though the boss Xia Keqing didn't come to supervise.
The boss said that this store will be used as a demonstration store and we must run it well. If we do a good job, everyone will get a bonus.
Because of this, even if there is no one supervising, these workers will spontaneously begin to supervise each other.
After all, customer satisfaction determines how much bonus they get.
Boss Xiao is different from other bosses. He will definitely keep his word.
This is extremely valuable, as it allows Xiao Jianping to continue to lead his store employees to do better and further as more and more people enter the decoration industry.
The shop is still under renovation, so nothing can be seen for the time being. Zhao Juan couldn't help but tease He Xiaolan, "So it turns out that she looks like this..."
He Xiaolan blushed, "Hey! Isn't this Keqing's shop? Can we not trust her taste? It must be beautiful!"
Zhao Juan nodded seriously, "That's right."
He Xiaolan raised her chin and gave Xia Keqing an expression that said, "See, I was right, wasn't I?", which made Xia Keqing laugh so hard.
"Okay, stop making fun of me. I originally planned to open a studio, but then I thought I might not have that much time to spend on design, so I opened a store and will open a global chain store in the future!"
He Xiaolan was particularly supportive, "Global chain store?"
"Keqing, your ambition is so great!"
Xia Keqing was amused and laughed, "What kind of ambition is this? I'm just a humble shop owner. My ambition is to make money!"
Zhao Juan hesitated to speak.
He Xiaolan laughed and said, "Yes, your ambition is really a bit humble, just to make money."
When leaving the store, Zhao Juan left first because of something urgent. He Xiaolan immediately said, "I'm fine. I'll go with you."
Xia Keqing thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll take you somewhere."
He Xiaolan readily agreed.
Before they had taken a few steps, they met Xu Yin and a middle-aged woman. He Xiaolan's face suddenly turned dark.
"Keqing, did you not check the almanac before we went out today?"
Xia Keqing: ...
She just pretended not to see Xu Yin, but she didn't appreciate it. Instead, she suddenly said to the middle-aged woman beside her: "Mom, this is the woman I told you about, the one who seduced Ah Zhou!"
Xia Keqing:? ?
However, Xu Yin's call of "Mom" made Xia Keqing immediately realize the identity of the middle-aged woman in front of her.
The Chen family is a dual-income family. Both Chen's father and mother work in a cotton textile factory, which is considered upper-middle class among local families.
However, there are too many children in the family and the staff housing is not big enough. The pressure of raising children is great, and the pressure will also be great when the children grow up.
So Chen's mother's dress was not very decent.
But he was better off than ordinary people. His clothes and trousers were 70% new, and he wore a pair of small leather shoes. He had short hair, and looked smart and capable.
He Xiaolan was stunned and immediately became furious, "Xu Yin, stop talking nonsense! Who seduced who?"
Xu Yin raised her eyebrows and put her hands on her hips, "I'm not talking about you, are you Xia Keqing's dog?"
He Xiaolan was almost angry to death, "Who are you calling a dog?"
Xu Yin was very proud, "I'll tell whoever calls me!"
He Xiaolan: “You!”
Xia Keqing quickly stopped He Xiaolan and said, "A beast is yelling at people, how can people be so tolerant as to fight against a beast?"
Now it was Xu Yin's turn to break down. "Xia Keqing, what did you say?"
He Xiaolan raised her chin instantly, "Whoever said that?"
Xu Yin was so angry that her face turned blue and red, "You!"
Chen's mother beside Xu Yin looked at Xia Keqing, but she didn't look at him with the scrutiny and dissatisfaction that Xu Yin thought she would. Not only that, her expression was quite kind. "Are you our classmate in Azhou?"
Xu Yin suddenly turned her head and looked at the woman, "Mom!"
There was a flash of disgust in the middle-aged woman's eyes.
"Do you have any manners? How can you have a say when your elders are talking?"
Xu Yin looked resentful, but ultimately didn't dare to say anything.
The middle-aged woman was looking at Xia Keqing, and seemed to have thought of something. She smiled and said, "I often hear our Azhou mention you. I heard that you and he have very similar interests. It's a pity. Wouldn't it be great if you could make progress together?"
Xia Keqing was disgusted by Chen Zhou's mother.
If she hadn't read the original text and knew how mean this woman was to the original owner, she might have been deceived by her kind appearance.
But after thinking about it, she understood.
She is different from the original owner.
The original owner lost her virginity to Chen Zhou and married into the Chen family after becoming pregnant out of marriage.
Getting pregnant before marriage is not a glorious thing even in later times, let alone in the relatively conservative 1980s.
The original owner not only lost her studies and future, but also said she was marrying Chen Zhou, but in fact she didn't even have a wedding. The Chen family thought it was shameful and undignified, and if it weren't for the sake of the child, they wouldn't have wanted their son to marry her at all.
But she is different. She is still a college student and a favored child of heaven.
Compared to Xu Yin, such a shameful fake daughter-in-law, Chen's mother certainly would not show a bad face to Xia Keqing.
