Chapter 347 Zhuang Chaoying Returns to the Zhuang Family
Pengfei returned home only after Zhu Xiuyu returned from Shanghai.
Zhuang Chaoying also took the time to go back home and saw Zhu Xiuyu and Pengfei were almost finishing their dinner.
Seeing Zhuang Chaoying coming in, Pengfei wiped his mouth and said:
"Uncle, aunt, I'm going to take a shower."
After saying that, he took the hot water and went to the water room.
Zhu Xiuyu stood up and cleared the dishes.
Zhuang Chaoying followed her and asked timidly, "Both mom and dad are sick at the same time, and mom's condition is quite serious. Do you want to go and see her?"
"No." Zhu Xiu Yu refused directly.
"Since you are not allowed to serve me, why don't you go to the head office?" Zhuang Chaoying lowered his head, looking very sad.
"We have already agreed that you don't need to interfere in our family affairs, and don't let me interfere in your family affairs, so I definitely won't go.
Don't say I'm going to take a look and not serve you. You wouldn't even mention it if I just went to take a look and not serve you. You're just trying to test whether I'm soft-hearted or not." Zhu Xiuyu sneered.
"Xiu Yu, husband and wife should always support each other! How can we still be called husband and wife if we are like this?" Zhuang Chaoying became angry.
"You didn't support me when I was in trouble, but I have to support you when you are in trouble. How can you have such a good thing?" Zhu Xiu Yu almost laughed out loud.
"Do you really want to make such a fuss with me over your aunt's matter? I've already apologized!" Zhuang Chaoying slapped his thigh.
"Does your apology have anything to do with my sadness? If you apologize, I have to forgive you! I'm sorry, but seeing you in trouble now makes me feel really relieved. You, Zhuang Chaoying, have finally come to this day! It's so satisfying!"
As Zhu Xiuyu said this, Zhuang Chaoying looked at her with a very happy expression, but he felt mixed emotions.
He didn't say anything else, changed his clothes, left the house and returned to the hospital.
When both of them were able to be discharged from the hospital, he moved back to the village.
It is no longer possible to not go back. Now Zhuang's mother is very weak and cannot take care of Zhuang's father at all.
But he had to go back to work in a few days, so he paid Uncle Zhao to help look after his parents during the day, and then he would take care of them himself after get off work at night.
When packing up, Zhu Xiuyu said to him generously:
"Since you don't need my care anymore when you move back home, you don't have to pay me the twenty-five dollars a month."
Zhuang Chaoying was stunned.
These twenty-five yuan were the only connection between him and Zhu Xiu Yu, and now it is gone.
Zhuang Chaoying once again felt something slipping away.
"Pengfei..." Zhuang Chaoying looked at Pengfei.
"I will take good care of Pengfei. I have called Hualin today, and she agreed to let Pengfei stay with me when you go to the Zhuang family to take care of your parents." Zhu Xiu Yu said frankly.
Pengfei also said to Zhuang Chaoying:
"Uncle, don't worry about studying. Aunt Huang helps me with my studies every weekend. She has already given me the homework and exercises to review during school hours. Xiaoting and Dongzhe also help me check every day."
Zhu Xiu Yu thought that Zhuang Chaoying must go to take care of his parents. He was afraid of being criticized and accused of being unfilial, but there was no one to push him away. He had no choice but to go ahead with it. So she took Pengfei to call Zhuang Hualin.
After listening to Zhu Xiu Yu's introduction of the situation, Zhuang Hualin asked Zhu Xiu Yu without thinking not to send Pengfei to the Zhuang family.
She knew all too well what kind of people her parents were.
When Pengfei was with Zhu Xiu Yu, there was just no one to supervise his studies. But at the Zhuang family, not only could he not study, but he also had endless things to do.
Zhuang Hualin was afraid that Zhu Xiuyu would not agree, so he cried and begged her, even asking for more money. However, Zhu Xiuyu refused and told Zhuang Hualin that she was willing to take care of Pengfei and that they got along very well.
Only then did Zhuang Hualin feel relieved and hung up the phone with many thanks.
Zhuang Chaoying was very surprised when he heard what Zhu Xiuyu and Pengfei said.
He didn't expect Zhu Xiu Yu to make such a decision. He thought Zhu Xiu Yu would let Zhuang Chao Ying take Peng Fei away on the pretext of studying.
It was not until then that Zhuang Chaoying realized that everyone seemed to be certain that he would return to the Zhuang family.
At the same time, everyone prepared everything for Pengfei, and Zhu Xiu Yu also participated in it.
Zhuang Chaoying didn't know when Zhu Xiuyu also stood on Huang Ling's side.
When I asked Huang Ling to help fill in Hongbin's college entrance examination application
When I asked to open a store in her department store
Or when we often met in department stores
He doesn't know.
A familiar feeling came over me.
He remembered that when he divorced Huang Ling, except for the Zhuang family, everyone else seemed to stand on Huang Ling's side unconditionally.
There was no point in thinking too much. Zhuang Chaoying returned to the Zhuang family alone, took on the responsibility of taking care of his parents, and continued to be the filial son that everyone praised.
But only he himself knows how painful it is to bear the burden of filial piety.
After a few months, he was exhausted from working during the day and taking care of his parents at night. He performed very poorly in the open class and lost his eligibility to run for the director of the mathematics teaching and research department.
However, the daughter-in-law and grandson, who are said to have no conscience by others, eat well, sleep soundly and live a very comfortable life.
When Hongbin was away, Zhu Xiuyu turned her longing for Hongbin into motivation to take care of Pengfei, and cared for Pengfei in every possible way.
And Pengfei is also seriously returning her care.
Every day he would pick up Zhu Xiuyu from work, and if she hadn't sold out yet, he would sit by the stall and do his homework while she waited. Every night after finishing his homework, he would help her prepare food in the kitchen, thinking of little ideas to attract customers.
It can truly be described as a loving mother and a filial son.
In March, Zhu Xiu Yu first hired a diligent young girl to help sell food, and used the extra time to manage the restaurant affairs.
Huang Ling asked her to pay 10% in actual payment plus 10% in technical payment, and receive a management salary on a regular basis, and then receive dividends at the end of the year.
Dividends are distributed in two stages:
Before the return of capital, Huang Ling and her split the dividends at a ratio of eight to two;
After the investment is recovered, dividends will be distributed at a ratio of six to four.
Zhu Xiuyu nodded in agreement without even thinking about this plan:
"I agree."
Huang Ling pushed the contract to her and said, "You better go back and think about it. No matter how you look at it, I'm taking advantage of you!"
Zhu Xiuyu shook her head. "Without you, I'd still be pushing a cart on the roadside. In my opinion, you've given me too much. I won't talk about the profits, but as for the losses, based on the actual investment ratio, you make nine and I make one. Isn't this taking advantage of you?"
"I'm so generous because I know there's no chance of making a loss," Huang Ling said with a smile.
"That's what I know." Zhu Xiuyu also smiled.
Even if Huang Ling didn't say it, Zhu Xiu Yu also knew that the reason she opened a restaurant was not to make money. She had to attend a lot of social events with clients, partners, friends, and Deputy Director Zhou.
She needed a place where her food was safe and where it was safe to talk.
After finishing the business, Zhu Xiuyu couldn't help asking: "A Ling, actually I want to ask, why did you trust me when we first met? You knew I..."
"I can help Hongbin, and you can help me. We're both dead, you've got to believe me and I've got to believe you. It's the same for both of us. You have to believe me, and I have to believe you." Huang Ling said half-jokingly.
Zhu Xiuyu nodded: "Others say that they have never seen a man's ex-wife and current wife get along well."
"Actually, outsiders are overthinking it. I no longer have any romantic feelings for Zhuang Chaoying, so I never felt that you and I were on opposite sides. Maybe you initially put me on the opposite side because you liked Zhuang Chaoying, but now that problem is no longer there.
Of course, there was the issue of Tunan before, but now that I see the three of them are truly as close as brothers, I feel relieved.”
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
Zhu Xiu Yu then began to prepare for the restaurant diligently.
Due to the dual-track pricing system, the private economy developed rapidly. However, at this time, the cotton mills were in crisis, but ordinary workers had not yet felt it.
At this time, Zhang Min entered the cotton mill and began her internship.
However, the reality was much crueler than she imagined.
