Huo Chengyu's Boomerang

On the second day, Shi Mingzhu used the purchased taro and milk to cook a pot of taro soup. Then I took them to the entrance of Pengcheng University and sold them to students.

3 cents a bowl.

As soon as I put up the sign saying "Selling Sugar Water", students came to buy it. Shi Mingzhu took the 5 cents with a smile and filled some sugar water for the students.

"Is it just taro syrup? Are there no other flavors?" Shi Mingzhu shook her head. This was the only flavor available for now. However, she wrote down the flavors that her students wanted to eat, and when she had time in the future, she would research and develop them one by one and sell them.

In just 10 minutes, 15 bowls of sugar water were sold. Although the profit from selling sweet soup is small, some students will buy one or two pieces of clothing after buying sweet soup, so Shi Mingzhu hopes that more students will come to buy sweet soup.

Tang Qin saw that she had brought something new to sell, and it was still sugar water. People in Pengcheng love to drink sugar water, so there was no problem selling it. Anyone passing by would buy a bowl. And Shi Mingzhu gave a lot.

Tang Qin sincerely envied, "Mingzhu, you are so proactive! I wish I had your proactiveness!"

"You can also get it and sell it." Shi Mingzhu said, pouring her a bowl.

"I don't want to eat it." Tang Qin waved her hand, but Shi Mingzhu stuffed it into her hand and said, "Just eat it if I give it to you. I won't charge you for it."

"I'll pack some small cakes for you." Without waiting for her to speak, Tang Qin immediately went to her stall and packed 5 small cakes.

"How about I sell fried noodles and fried rice? I also want to sell some stir-fried vegetables. My husband is a good cook. I'm thinking of setting up a stove nearby and selling hot dishes when the time comes."

Shi Mingzhu looked around. It was just bare fields. It was possible to set up a stove and cook here. She looked into Tang Qin's bright eyes and asked, "Can this work?"

Perhaps it was Shi Mingzhu's resolute attitude that gave her courage. Tang Qin nodded heavily, "I'll try!"

Shi Mingzhu nodded. She was busy with both sugar water and clothes, so she didn't have much time to chat with Tang Qin. The sweet soup was sold out quickly. Shi Mingzhu quietly counted the money. A pot of sweet soup cost more than 5 yuan, and she spent 80 cents on the taro and milk. Selling sugar water turned out to be a steady profit, so Shi Mingzhu decided to keep selling it.

Two days later, Huo Chengfeng came to the gate of Pengcheng University to look for Shi Mingzhu.

In addition to telling her that Shi Jianshe and his team had passed the first round and reminding them to take the unified assessment in half a month, he also told her a piece of news: he would be returning to his hometown tomorrow.

Shi Mingzhu remembered and decided to move her household registration.

"Oh, no need to come and tell me specifically."

Huo Chengfeng sighed, "I just wanted to come and tell you something."

"Where's Yangyang? I haven't seen him for two days. I miss him."

Shi Mingzhu looked towards the university entrance and said, "Unfortunately, my brother brought him to school to play."

Huo Chengfeng hummed, took a look, and said tentatively, "Then I'll wait here for them to come back."

"Just don't get in the way of my business."

Huo Chengfeng's brows relaxed and he spontaneously walked to the side and sat down.

Shi Mingzhu occasionally looked over and saw him translating his foreign book. It was a thick book, so thick that it could break his feet. It was difficult for him to finish reading it.

"How much money can you make after you translate this book?"

"500 yuan. They need it urgently and asked me to finish it in two days. The Chinese version will be published in China next month. It will be the first edition in China. Now everyone in China is curious about everything abroad, so it will be very profitable. The publishing house is willing to increase the price by 100 yuan for me." In fact, his translation level was still good. Huo Chengfeng was more grateful that he studied hard when he was in school. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t be able to get the 500 yuan.

Shi Mingzhu widened her eyes in disbelief. Translation really did make money. She earned in just two days what she would have earned in a week.

After Huo Chengfeng finished speaking, he stopped talking and buried his head in the book. He urgently needs to make money now. 500 yuan in two days is not fast enough, and he probably won't be able to earn extra money in the next week. Huo Chengfeng is a little anxious, but he also knows that he can't be impatient.

People were coming and going at the stall. Tang Qin from next door came over and asked Shi Mingzhu what she wanted for lunch.

Looking at her smiling face, Shi Mingzhu said, "Let's have some fried noodles."

Tang Qin immediately smiled and said, "Give me a bowl of your taro soup, and no one has to pay."

Shi Mingzhu filled a bowl of sugar water for Tang Qin, and then pointed at Huo Chengfeng, "You take one portion of the money, and give him one portion of fried noodles as well."

"OK."

Tang Qin quickly brought over two servings of fried noodles. After eating the noodles, Shi Jianshe also came back with Yang Yang.

Unexpectedly, they also brought back two roasted sweet potatoes.

"The students at school gave it to me. They were roasting sweet potatoes, and when they saw Yangyang and me, they gave one to us." Not only that, Yangyang was also taken care of by that group of students. It was very easy for him to take care of the child this time.

Shi Mingzhu smiled and said that it was good for college students to take care of children. "Tomorrow you can continue to take him to play in school. You can also bring some food with you so that we can eat together."

When Yangyang saw someone familiar, he screamed excitedly and opened his arms to hug him.

Huo Chengfeng glanced at Shi Mingzhu and asked, "Can I hold you?"

The latter nodded, and Huo Chengfeng reached out and held the child in his arms. Yangyang went into his father's arms and hugged his neck, but he stayed in Huo Chengfeng's arms for less than two minutes before he fluttered and asked his mother to hold him.

Huo Chengfeng could only hand Yang Yang to Shi Mingzhu, "Okay, you've taken the child, you can go now." She began to chase the guest away.

As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Yang raised his hand and waved at Huo Chengfeng.

The three adults' eyes widened at once.

"Yangyang, are you waving to your father?" Shi Mingzhu turned her head.

Yangyang looked at his mother, then at his father, then at his uncle, and nodded.

When Shi Mingzhu saw him nod, she laughed out loud, "Yangyang is really smart."

Unexpectedly, when Yangyang heard her words, he nodded again, and the baby fat on his face trembled. However, perhaps because everyone was staring at him for too long, he buried his head in the crook of his neck shyly.

Huo Chengfeng left reluctantly. His son was so smart, he wanted to make more money!

The next day, Huo Chengfeng submitted the manuscript to the publishing house, and then he and his father took Huo Chengyu and took the train back to their hometown, Liang'an City.

After arriving at the place, he did not dare to stop at all. He first went home to get the adoption documents that his father had applied for more than 20 years ago when he adopted Huo Chengyu, and then took Huo Chengyu to the civil affairs department to terminate the adoption relationship.

The cancellation procedure is very quick and can be completed by writing a certificate, signing, and taking a photo. Huo Chengfeng received a note proving the termination of the adoption relationship.

Next, he will take this certificate to the police station to transfer his household registration.

"Where are you moving to? Is there any unit to accept you?" asked the staff at the household registration office.

"No, just move her out." Huo Chengfeng showed the other party the certificate of termination of adoption and the letter of severance of relationship.

The other party took it and exclaimed in surprise, "Then she is an orphan. There is no place to take her in. Her household registration can only be placed in an orphanage."

Huo Chengfeng hummed, "All right."

After hearing this, Huo Chengyu immediately objected, "No! I won't go to the orphanage!" She and her classmates had visited an orphanage a few years ago, and saw that the older children there had to raise the younger ones and take care of their eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. She didn't want to do that!

Huo Chengfeng pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled sarcastically. He obviously knew what the environment was like in the orphanage. "Isn't this what you want? You hate the heavens and the earth, isn't this what you want?"

"Fifth brother! I don't want to go to the welfare home! Wait for me to find a job, and then I will transfer my household registration to my workplace!" Huo Chengyu pleaded, wanting to reach out and pull him to beg for mercy, but Huo Chengfeng brushed him away.

"My father and you have terminated the adoption relationship, and you have already taken the money and signed the severance agreement. We are no longer a family!" Huo Chengfeng reminded her in a cold tone, "By the way, you shouldn't have the surname Huo. Get rid of it."

"You are not a child of the Huo family. Why do you have the surname Huo?"

Huo Chengyu felt that this was very familiar. She had said this to Shi Mingzhu before. Huo Chengyu opened her mouth and said, "Brother, you are repaying kindness with enmity!"

Huo Chengfeng looked at her coldly, "I told you, don't call me brother!"

Huo Chengyu saw his hateful eyes and pursed his lips. She couldn't help but look at Huo Jiafeng, but the latter ignored her gaze and said nothing, leaving everything to Huo Chengfeng.

"Have you guys reached an agreement?" the household registration officer asked again after hearing some gossip.

"Move her directly to the orphanage. I don't have time to wait. Remove her last name."

Huo Chengyu, no, now she should be called Chengyu, her face turned cold and she watched the household registration staff fill out the information for her without saying a word.

After the other party filled out the form, she signed her name and left without saying a word.

So what if her surname is not Huo, and so what if her household registration is in an orphanage? She has money now, she can buy a job and transfer her household registration there immediately!

Huo Chengfeng also told his brothers and sisters about Cheng Yu. He was afraid that if he didn't tell them, their brothers and sisters would not know about it and Cheng Yu would come looking for them in the future.

"You did the right thing. She just lives too comfortably and has no conscience. Otherwise, how could she dare to do this!" Third sister Huo Yuan asked him, "But do you and Mingzhu really want to divorce?"

"A divorce certificate must be obtained." Huo Chengfeng said firmly. He would have to get it sooner or later. He just wanted to follow Shi Mingzhu's wishes and get the divorce first. You can't just not receive it and hide away from people. This won't work either.

Huo Yuan cursed, "You deserve it. Take it. The Huo family doesn't need a divorced person like you anyway. In fact..." She glanced at the faces of her family members and said slowly, "I'm divorced too." She had been an educated youth in the countryside for many years, got married and had children, and just came back recently after getting divorced. She thought she could use her brother's divorce as an opportunity to talk about her own divorce as well.

Huo Yuan glanced at her father. As expected, her father was irritated and pointed at her, so angry that he was speechless.

The smile on Huo Yuan's face became even more guilty, "I left the child to his father."

"Huo Yuan!" Huo Jiafeng's thunderous roar was heard in the house. "Who allowed you to do this? Who allowed you to abandon the child in the countryside? Go and get the child back immediately!"

"I'm not going! The child is with his father, I want to start a new life!"

Huo Chengfeng looked at his third sister, and suddenly he felt that his third sister was very much like Shi Mingzhu. He sighed, felt heavy-hearted and went back to his room.

Maybe the people in his family are destined to divorce. His father divorced, his sister divorced, and he divorced too.
