Chapter 352 The Future Mother-in-Law Arrives 1 The Child Is Not Hers
Now that the children's affairs are resolved, I can pack up and prepare to go back for the New Year.
Dad promised my eldest brother to go to Northeast China to celebrate the New Year this year, and Yao Zhizhi promised her third brother to go to Hong Kong to celebrate the New Year. Naturally, the father and daughter had to embark on different journeys home.
However, Yao Zhizhi thought that her mother-in-law had not seen the two children for several months, so she decided to go back to Yicheng first and then visit her third brother.
So her family of four got in the same car with Yao Taotao and others.
Ge Rui didn't want to see Yao Zhizhi, so he exchanged seats with someone else while holding the child and sat far away.
Yao Taotao glanced back and said with emotion, "This person does love children. As long as they love children, it's easier to control them."
"Where will he live in Yicheng?" Yao Zhizhi was actually still a little worried. This kind of man can disregard principles to please a woman for the sake of a few pounds of meat. It can be seen that he has no sense of morality.
Otherwise, how could they kill people so casually?
If he relapses into his old ways in the future, it would be quite dangerous to keep him in Yicheng.
Yao Taotao smiled and said, "I haven't decided yet. I'm planning on buying a shop with a front yard and a back yard, with the front yard facing the street for commercial purposes and the back yard for living. Or maybe an upstairs shop, with the downstairs being the shop and the upstairs being the living space."
"The ones with front and back yards are better, as the children have a place to play." Yao Zhizhi thought about it. Although there are shops that meet the requirements in the south of the city, it is still unknown whether they can be sold.
For example, the row of streets behind the Chengnan Police Station are all shops with front yards and people living in the backyards, but those shops are all state-owned, such as the supply and marketing cooperative, Xinhua Bookstore, seed stations, hardware stores, etc.
Yao Taotao naturally wanted to buy something like this, but she didn't force it. She smiled and said, "After all, I have to take care of my child's schooling. I have to see him every day to feel at ease. It's better to find one that is close to the university."
"Yeah." Yao Zhizhi didn't worry about her not having enough money, she just reminded her, "Please write your own name on it, don't put your child's name on it."
So that no one will think of beating the child because of this.
Yao Taotao understood: "Don't worry, I won't buy him any property before he comes of age. What if he can get into college, what if he goes to another city? Then I can go directly to where he works and buy him a house. I will have fulfilled my responsibility."
Chao Risheng, who was standing by, kept his eyes closed and did not express any opinion.
After all, it was Yao Taotao's own money earned by her own ability, so she could spend it however she wanted.
As for this child, she has raised him for so many years, and giving him away now would be a huge loss. He also supported her to keep the child.
As for whether he and Yao Taotao can get to the point of marriage, and whether they will have their own children after marriage, it is still too early. Let's wait until she graduates.

Tang Fengyuan has been having a headache recently. Director Sun was transferred to the provincial government, and the deputy director was promoted, which led to adjustments to a series of positions below.
Someone recommended her to be the deputy director, but this meant she was promoted twice, which naturally made some people dissatisfied.
After a round of discussion, it was finally decided to let her go to the Port and Shipping Bureau, also known as the Water Bureau, as the director. If she does well there, it won't be too late to transfer her to the Municipal Bureau.
This was a good thing, but she looked worried.
Yao Zhizhi had already returned and couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong, Mom? Are you not happy about your promotion?"
Tang Fengyuan sighed, "I originally wanted to apply for retirement at 50 through my status as a martyr's relative, but now that I've been promoted, I can't apply anymore."
"It's okay, just go ahead and do your own thing. The children are grown up and go to school anyway." Yao Zhizhi did not force her mother-in-law to come and take care of the children. After all, the most difficult stage was over.
Tang Fengyuan felt bad, so he had to call Yao Jingzong personally and ask him to work hard for a few more years.
Yao Jingzong smiled and replied, "You are my own child, why should I work so hard? You don't need to think so much, just do what you need to do."
Tang Fengyuan thanked him repeatedly before hanging up the phone. Returning to his residence, he couldn't help but sigh, "When I retire, my children will be grown up and won't need me to take care of them anymore. I really can't help at all. Sigh."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You've been promoted, so your salary and pension should increase as well. Wouldn't this reduce the burden on the children?" Ning Zhengrong didn't think there was anything wrong with this. If he couldn't contribute any work, he could just contribute money.
Including Yao Weiguo, if he and Cui Wen are short of money for buying a house or a car in the future, we will definitely help them.
After all, according to Chinese tradition, parents have to live with their sons and help them take care of their children. Now Yao Jingzong and Xie Chunxing are with their daughters. As long as the daughters' parents-in-law are reasonable, they will definitely compensate their brother and sister-in-law.
However, for Yao Miaomiao and Yang Shuming, it makes no difference whether they receive compensation or not. After all, the child's surname is Yao, so they will not suffer any loss.
In short, these are all determined by objective conditions, not by the two younger sisters' subjective desire to snatch their parents from their brother and sister-in-law. Yao Weiguo and Cui Wen are also generous and have never cared about these things.
In this case, the only option for the woman's in-laws is to provide financial compensation.
You can't really ask Tang Fengyuan to resign, right? Public servants don't have that much freedom.
Tang Fengyuan sighed silently, "Thank goodness I'm lucky to have met such sensible in-laws. If this matter had happened to a more petty family, they would have made a huge scene long ago."
"Relax, since you can't retire next year, I won't transfer you. You can just go to the capital every now and then to collect some junk." Ning Zhengrong smiled and brought water for Tang Fengyuan to soak his feet. "By the way, if you want to go to the water branch, it's too far. You can drive my shoulder car."
"What about you?" Tang Fengyuan was used to this man's care, and had tacitly understood him so much that he took off his shoes and socks just when the foot washing water was brought.
She soaked her feet in it, and the warm feeling instantly spread from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, which was very comfortable.
Ning Zhengrong smiled and said, "I can just get another one. It's not difficult."
Anyway, he had originally planned to go to the capital, and the leaders of the Yicheng Museum were reluctant to let him go, so it was a good opportunity to bargain.
Tang Fengyuan guessed it, and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "You, I know what you are thinking just by looking at your eyes."
"By the way—" Ning Zhengrong turned around, fetched a towel, and was ready to help wipe feet at any time. He sat down and said, "Did you know that the publishing house is planning to build a staff dormitory?"
"That's great." Tang Fengyuan said with some emotion, "Thank goodness our Zhizhi is capable, otherwise there would be no such good thing."
"That's right. I heard that the sales volume of that magazine has reached more than 9 million copies a month. Just calculate how much money they make this month." Ning Zhengrong did a rough calculation and found that the savings of their daughter-in-law were already an astronomical figure.
Then the publishing house will naturally have the confidence to build employee dormitories.
However, if I have to pay for it all myself, it would be a huge loss. I will probably apply for funding from the government, so that I can save some money and use it to improve other hardware facilities. For example, I can introduce foreign machines in the office building to improve office efficiency.
In short, this matter has been put on the agenda. It is really a case of those who plant trees in the past will enjoy the shade in the future. Fortunately, President Li was cunning and was afraid that the magazine would not sell well, so he specially asked Yao Zhizhi and Yao Taotao to share the cost.
Otherwise, this cash cow would now belong to the publishing house.
I don’t know if President Li is regretting it so much that his intestines are turning green.
This is what they call "how much vision you have, how much money you make." Courage is also part of vision, and President Li doesn't have it, so naturally he won't be able to catch up with such good things.
What's more, he dug his own grave by shielding his relatives who had committed crimes.
It can be seen that in life, we should never be lucky and think that we can secretly cross the bottom line and get away with it.
Similarly, a person's love affair cannot be concealed. At this moment, Yao Taotao, carrying the New Year's goods she had just bought, looked at the old woman who appeared in front of her after being dressed up, and smiled politely: "Excuse me, who are you?"
Mother Chao said nothing. She was holding the arm of a woman in her thirties and looking at Yao Taotao with a cold face.
At first glance, they are obviously mother and daughter. Their contemptuous eyes, raised chins, and superior attitude are exactly the same.
Yao Taotao had roughly guessed the other party's identity, but since the other party didn't say anything, she pretended not to know.
She turned around, inserted the key into the keyhole, calmly opened the door and went into the house.
The mother and daughter outside the door were quite well-mannered and did not force their way in. When they saw Yao Taotao go in, they just stood outside the door and watched.
Yao Taotao put down the New Year's goods and started to clean the house.
In Yicheng, people usually do a thorough cleaning before the Little New Year. Tomorrow is the Little New Year. Yao Taotao is very busy and has no time to be hypocritical with this mother and daughter.
She was busy going in and out, sometimes carrying a basin of water and a stool to clean the windows, and sometimes cleaning out some unused bottles and cans from the house, putting them in urea bags, and preparing to take them to the scrap collection station to sell them.
While he was busy, Cao Guangyi arrived. After all, he had helped raise Yao Songtao for several years and had feelings for him. So after the child was taken away, he was worried that Yao Taotao and Ge Rui would have a fight.
Now that he's back, he has to come over to find out what's going on.
As soon as I arrived, I saw two women standing at the door. Their arrogant and domineering faces showed that they were from important backgrounds.
Looking at the two people wearing the same style of woolen coats in different colors, and the same style of black leather shoes on their feet, Cao Guangyi guessed that they were probably relatives of Chao Risheng.
But he still politely said hello: "Excuse me, who are these aunties and elder sisters looking for?"
Mother Chao looked him over with a cold expression. The woman at the side asked, "Who are you to Yao Taotao?"
Cao Guangyi sensed the hostility from the two women. Although he felt bitter knowing that Yao Taotao had chosen Chao Risheng, he replied calmly for Yao Taotao's sake, "I was her neighbor before she went to college. I heard her nephew was kidnapped, so I came to ask if the child had been found."
The implication is that she was not having an affair with another man, and although she was raising a child, the child was not hers.
Mother Chao didn't know Cao Guangyi, so she just believed him and asked, "She's just a neighbor. Are you close to her?"
"Auntie, look at what you said, a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative. The child has been raised by the neighbors, and I can't bear it. Look, the New Year is coming soon, and everyone hopes that the child can come back to reunite with Teacher Yao." Cao Guangyi found the most irrefutable excuse.
Chao's mother fell silent. Since the neighbors all said so, it seemed that the child was indeed not Yao Taotao's.
She said nothing more, turned around and left with her daughter.
The mother and daughter soon arrived at Chao Risheng's residence and saw that he was busy cleaning, so they hurried to help.
Chao's mother felt very distressed. She took the broom from his hand and advised him, "Rise, why are you doing this as a man? Put it down and let your sister do it."
Chao Muxia immediately took the broom: "That's right, brother, a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen, let me do it."
-----------------------
The author has something to say: The retirement age was wrong earlier. As long as they are cadres, female comrades must retire at or above the age of 55. However, martyrs' families can apply for early retirement five years.
After the martyr's family remarries, the monthly pension will be stopped. If they want to take care of the martyr's descendants, they can still apply for early retirement, but now my mother-in-law has been promoted, so she has to continue working.
I'll change it here and I'll change it before, sorry.
