"Mom, let's go to work," Wang Baoshan said pitifully to Tao Ying.
“Okay!” Tao Ying agreed, gesturing for Wang Baoshan to push the bicycle.
Wang Baoshan is extremely serious about his work and never slacks off.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, he came to find Tao Ying and said, "Mom, I'm off work."
"This counts as leaving early, so you'll have ten yuan deducted from your salary," Tao Ying said without looking up.
"Fine, I don't need the end-of-month bonus either," Wang Baoshan said nonchalantly.
"Why are you being so generous?" Tao Ying looked up in surprise.
“When did I ever become stingy?” Wang Baoshan now dislikes the word “stingy.”
"Huh?" Tao Ying looked at Wang Baoshan in surprise.
“That was then. I’ve come to terms with it now. Our family isn’t short of money,” Wang Baoshan said weakly.
"Baoshan, I need to discuss something with you. Take a look at this." Tao Ying handed a document to Wang Baoshan.
"What is this?" Wang Baoshan took it and looked at it, his eyes widening instantly.
It turned out to be a will for the transfer of property.
It is clearly stated above that the transportation company belongs entirely to Wang Baojun, the two clothing stores belong to Wang Chunni, and the grocery store belongs to Zhou Daya.
Of Dow Chemical Company, 51% of the shares belong to Wang Chuntao, 39% to Wang Baoshan, and 10% to Tao Chenyang. The house in question also belongs to Tao Chenyang.
Before Wang Chuntao officially takes over the company, if Tao Ying has an accident, the company will be managed by Wang Baoshan.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Wang Baoshan's face changed.
“Baoshan, I don’t want Wang Baojun to get a single penny of my property. If something happens to me, the previous severance agreement might not be valid, which is why I wrote this certificate,” Tao Ying said, looking at Wang Baoshan.
"Mom, you won't get into trouble." Wang Baoshan's eyes reddened.
“Baoshan, I will have this document notarized by a lawyer. Don’t tell anyone else. Mom only trusts you. Originally, Mom planned to start a construction company for you after you graduated. If something happens to Mom first, you can manage Tao’s first. After Chuntao finishes her studies, you two brothers can discuss it again.” Tao Ying looked at Wang Baoshan with affection.
Tao Ying had to be wary of Wang Baojun.
"Mom~" Wang Baoshan couldn't accept this.
"Alright, Mom might not be in any trouble. Xiaoxue is probably already here. Go quickly, and remember not to tell anyone," Tao Ying said with a smile.
"Mom, I promise I won't let anything happen to you." Wang Baoshan wiped away his tears and left, sobbing.
Tao Ying made several copies of the certificate, planning to tell Wang Chuntao and Zhou Daya again when she got home, but not tell anyone else.
That evening, Tao Ying repeated the same thing to Wang Chuntao and Zhou Daya.
Wang Chuntao hugged Tao Ying tightly, saying, "Mom, you'll be alright."
"Silly child, there are some things we have to be careful about. It's already tough for us women in this world. Keep this document safe so that you'll have some protection if your third brother changes in the future." Tao Ying affectionately stroked Wang Chuntao.
"Mom, I don't want anything, I just want you to be healthy and for us to be together forever." Wang Chuntao couldn't stop the tears from flowing.
"Silly girl, you'll grow up eventually and have your own life," Tao Ying said gently.
When it came to Zhou Daya, Tao Ying used a different approach: "Mom, I'll put this document in my room, and my bankbooks and other things in my name in this room as well. The children don't know about the money. If something happens to me, don't worry about being sad, you must come and get it first. This is my way of protecting you."
"Ying'er." Zhou Daya's eyes reddened.
"Mom, don't be sad. We're kindred spirits, and I consider you my own mother," Tao Ying said, holding Zhou Daya's hand.
“If that day ever comes, and you manage to get away, come find me, and I’ll give you the money.” Zhou Daya wiped away her tears.
Knowing that the child had a secret, but the child didn't say anything, Zhou Daya didn't pry either.
"Mom, you're so kind." Tao Ying was truly moved.
"Mom, I'm useless, I can't help you with anything," Zhou Daya said sadly.
"Ying'er, tomorrow my old man and I will go stay at Da Shuan's place," Zhou Daya said with tears in her eyes.
"Mom, are you afraid of Dad..." Tao Ying asked softly.
“Yes, the Wang family has a bad reputation, so we have to be careful,” Zhou Daya said through gritted teeth.
“But I don’t want you to leave,” Tao Ying said, nestled against Zhou Daya’s shoulder.
“If anything happens to you, Mom and Baomin will send you to Xiaojiang’s place,” Zhou Daya said with a determined look in her eyes.
"Okay," Tao Ying replied softly.
After regaining her composure, Zhou Daya returned to her room to pack her things.
"What's going on?" Old Master Wang asked, puzzled.
“The clothing store doesn’t need us anymore, so I’m planning to go stay with Da Shuan for a while,” Zhou Daya said.
"Why would I stay there? There's plenty of good food and drink here, and people even do my laundry and cook for me." Old Master Wang didn't want to leave.
When they arrived at Dashuan's place, they had to do everything themselves, and they felt that the old woman was just lucky but didn't know how to enjoy it.
“Da Shuan and his wife are having such a hard time. Let’s go over and help them with the laundry and other chores, so the kids can have an easier time. If you don’t want to go, then you can go back to your hometown.” Zhou Daya yelled fiercely at Grandpa Wang.
"Let them go, what's all the fuss about?" Old Master Wang said reluctantly, his face cold.
Tao Ying received Jiang Jiang's identification document three days after Zhou Daya moved out.
The person above is also named Tao Ying, but is twelve years younger.
Wang Baoshan and Wang Yuexue got along very well; their relationship developed gradually and subtly.
"Did you confess your feelings?" Tao Ying asked Wang Baoshan in a low voice.
"No, Mom, I always feel like Xiaoxue treats me like a younger brother." Wang Baoshan sighed.
"Didn't she lose interest in Baomin?" Tao Ying asked, somewhat surprised.
For the past two weeks, these two have been going out to play every single day.
“She’s not interested in my second brother anymore, but she hasn’t shown any interest in me either. She’s only interested in you. She’s here to steal Mom away,” Wang Baoshan sighed.
"What do you mean, 'You're trying to steal Mom'? So what are your feelings for Xiaoxue? You've known each other for so long." Tao Ying couldn't help but laugh.
"Mom, I love the feeling of being dominated by Sister Xue." Wang Baoshan looked at Tao Ying with bright eyes.
Tao Ying “…”
"That's good. Try to confess your feelings as soon as possible." Tao Ying really didn't know what to say.
"I'm afraid that if I confess my feelings, Sister Xue won't pay any attention to me," Wang Baoshan said, scratching his head.
Besides, I'm only a junior in college. What if Sister Xue looks down on me?
"Love should be expressed. What if she likes you too? Otherwise, do you still want Xiaoxue to confess? She already confessed to your second brother, so how could she confess to you again? Besides, so what if she's rejected? A real man can't be rejected twice." Tao Ying gently advised.
"Mom, you're right. I'm going to confess to Xiaoxue tomorrow. What gift do you think I should buy?" Wang Baoshan strongly agreed with Tao Ying's point of view.
