Chapter 140 The Carefully Selected Person
Zhu Xiu Yu looked like she had just fought a great battle.
When she arrived at her aunt's house, there was no one around except her aunt, and then she burst into tears.
Her aunt was the only one who understood her and was willing to help her.
Zhu Xiu Yu is also a miserable person.
He became an orphan in his teens and relied on his aunt for support until he was old enough to work and earn money. For this, his aunt was often beaten by his uncle.
When choosing a partner, she chose Hongbin's father, a temporary worker in the cotton mill, and then used the hard-earned money she saved from collecting lotus roots in the winter to help Hongbin's father buy a formal job in the cotton mill.
Hongbin's father is honest, hardworking, skilled, and good to her.
They seemed to be living a better life and were almost ready to buy a house, but unexpectedly, things went against their wishes. Hongbin's father fell seriously ill within a few years and passed away, leaving them an orphan and a widow.
"Why are you crying? If things aren't going well, aren't you going to apply for marriage?" asked my aunt.
"I went there and got beaten." Zhu Xiu Yu wiped away her tears.
"Then it's settled. It's a good thing. Why are you crying?" Aunt patted her back and handed her a cold towel.
"Finally, it's almost done." Zhu Xiu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, you've waited for several years and finally found the right one. I hope you can make it."
Zhu Xiuyu nodded.
After her husband passed away, there were still people who introduced Zhu Xiu Yu to potential partners.
But her conditions were not good, and the people introduced to her were either as bad as her or worse than her.
She was such a smart person, she would never jump into the fire pit, let alone take her son with her.
She is waiting.
She didn't understand the big principles, she just knew that she couldn't get married again easily. Rather than getting worse off, it would be better for her to live alone with her son.
In recent years, she has spent almost all her money and energy on her son.
However, she gradually sensed a problem.
The terrible information gap made her son miss the opportunity to get into No. 1 Middle School, and she felt extremely regretful.
Until, she met Zhuang Chaoying.
Zhuang Chaoying told Zhu Xiu Yu without reservation all the information he knew about the outside schools taking the entrance exam for the high school department of No. 1 Middle School, and made corresponding analysis based on Zhao Hongbin's situation.
She was quite shocked at the time that there were so many things she didn't know.
If Zhao Hongbin had not met Zhuang Chaoying, he might have lost the opportunity to enter the high school department of No. 1 Middle School, and his chances of going to college would have been greatly reduced.
Her aunt had also questioned her desire to marry Zhuang Chaoying.
In my aunt's eyes, a scholar is good for nothing. She thinks that if she really wants to find a good one, Zhuang Chaoying is not a good one.
Only Zhu Xiu Yu knew that it was suitable.
She has a weak personality and is easy to control. She will be the one making the decisions at home in the future.
The job is decent and can help my son a lot.
Adopting a nephew shows that one has a noble character and at least one will not treat his son harshly.
She doesn't have a house, but she's already in the queue. It would be better if she could contribute, but if not, it won't affect her wait for a house.
Besides, as she told Zhuang Chaoying, she likes well-mannered men, which is the truth.
Zhu Xiu Yu knew very well that if Zhuang Chaoying had a stronger personality, a director title, a house or no burden, if she had any of these qualities, it would not be her turn.
Zhuang Chaoying is already the most suitable person for her among those around her.
The aunt remembered what she had found out and told Zhu Xiuyu everything.
"I went to the Zhuang family's place and asked around. This Zhuang family is a hot topic among everyone. They all say that the reason his ex-wife was determined to divorce Zhuang Chaoying was because the Zhuang family bullied her. You'd better be careful!"
"Well, I know about his family situation. Teacher Zhuang has explained it all to me. We've met his mother before, haven't we? That's it."
"But there are still two nephews that no one wants! It's fine as long as the two old men in the Zhuang family are in good health, but if they are not well and pass away, these two nephews will be a trouble!"
"It's not like they don't have a mother. It's not Teacher Zhuang's turn to take care of them." Zhu Xiu Yu sneered.
"Well, you're on your own anyway. I can't do much to help you."
"Aunt, you are the only one willing to help me over the years. You have helped me a lot. I am very grateful to you. When my life gets better, I will definitely repay you."
The two did not tell the Zhuang family about their marriage registration.
Zhuang Chaoying's intuition was that given the snobbishness of his father and mother, they would definitely not like Zhu Xiuyu.
They wanted to wait a month for the factory to make a decision and then tell them.
Zhuang Chaoying hoped that Zhu Xiuyu could help, so that her parents would have no reason to object.
After all, house and money are more important than his happiness.
However, no one knew what happened and the matter could not be concealed.
One day during dinner, Zhuang's father and mother came to visit with Zhendong and Zhenbei.
The timing is not good.
By then, Zhuang Chaoying and the others had finished their meal, leaving only a little soup at the bottom of their bowls.
"Grandpa, Grandma," Pengfei stood up and began to collect the dishes. "Please sit down. I'll clean up the dishes."
The four of them were still hungry, and their faces instantly turned dark.
"Chaoying, where is the kitchen? Let me go and cook something." Zhuang's mother indicated that they had not eaten yet and wanted Zhuang Chaoying to take the initiative.
"Grandma, there is no rice at home. What we ate today is the last bit. My uncle can only go buy some tomorrow." Pengfei replied.
"Grandma, there are no more vegetables. We are eating the leftovers from lunch and didn't buy any vegetables." Tuanan also replied.
"Then let's make some noodles! Vegetarian noodles are fine too."
"None of us three like noodles, and we don't have any at home," Pengfei replied.
He is more in charge of the family affairs than his uncle, so he knows everything.
"I think you did it on purpose! Why, our elders are here, and you can't even eat your bowl of noodles!" Father Zhuang started shouting at the top of his voice.
"Dad, stop yelling, I'll go borrow some!"
Zhuang Chaoying went to wash the dishes and cooked noodles for the four of them, and Zhuang's mother followed her into the kitchen.
Tunan and Pengfei started doing their homework.
Zhuang's father rummaged around the house.
"Grandpa, let me help you find what you are looking for," Pengfei asked.
"I'm just taking a look! You do your homework!" Zhuang's father shouted, but he also stopped.
Zhuang's mother followed Zhuang Chaoying into the kitchen and helped wash the dishes.
Zhuang Chaoying borrowed some noodles from his neighbor and boiled water to cook them.
Zhuang's mother murmured beside him, "Sons are no longer under their control when they grow up! You didn't even tell us about such a big thing as your marriage!"
Zhuang Chaoying was a little surprised. They hadn't told anyone about this, but since their parents already knew about it, they had no choice but to speak out:
"I just got the certificate. I haven't gotten the marriage certificate yet. I'm planning to bring Xiuyu back to see you guys this weekend."
"You've just got the certificate, so tear it up! You're still young, there's no rush, take your time looking for it. Remember, you must tear it up or burn it to avoid any future troubles." Zhuang's mother lowered her voice and said.
Zhuang Chaoying was shocked.
"Mom! What era is this? Marriage has long been free, why did you arrange a marriage?"
