"Mom, I agree to go to Shanghai with you. I want to apply myself and see if I can get transferred there," Yang Lin said directly after hearing Tao Ying's words.
Yang Lin knew that even if he and Chunni didn't go, his mother wouldn't mistreat Chunni.
But when you're far apart, the relationship naturally breaks down, and you'll grow further and further away from everyone else.
Later on, they would direct their own family to become poor relatives of Baomin and his family.
He may not be particularly capable, but he won't give up the opportunity for his wife and children to have a better life just for the sake of saving face.
"Okay." Tao Ying nodded.
“Mom, I agree with you.” Wang Baomin had no objections.
Although his business is growing bigger and bigger, Wang Baomin doesn't care that much about money.
Family ties still come first.
“Mom, I’ve decided to take the postgraduate entrance exam. If I have the opportunity, I’d like to study abroad,” Wang Baoshan said firmly.
Mom is right. The accumulation of knowledge is more important than short-term gains.
"Mom, there's no need to wait until I finish my college entrance exam. I'm not that fragile." Wang Chuntao believes that time is money.
I don't feel inferior because my family has moved to Shanghai.
"You still have six months until the college entrance exam. After the New Year, Mom will have to go back to prepare for childbirth. The college entrance exam will be around the time you finish your postpartum confinement. Mom will come to accompany you during the exam." Tao Ying affectionately patted Wang Chuntao's head.
"Mom, I won't be jealous of him." Wang Chuntao gently touched Tao Ying's belly.
The moment Wang Chuntao touched her, the little one inside her belly responded to her.
"Mom, Mom, he likes me." Wang Chuntao looked at Tao Ying with surprise and delight.
“Little baby, I’m your great-niece. I’ll take you to play when you’re born.” Tao Chenyang couldn’t sit still any longer and gently leaned on Tao Ying’s belly and whispered.
However, Tao Chenyang was not reciprocated by his stomach.
The family meeting ended just like that.
Everyone started getting busy with things at head office.
This year, Wang Dashuan and his family still came over for the Spring Festival, at Tao Ying's invitation.
"Sister-in-law, is Brother Jiang coming? Would that be inappropriate?" Li Guiying asked anxiously.
How can someone who is married not go to their husband's family for the Lunar New Year, but instead spend it with their ex-husband's family?
Not afraid of upsetting her mother-in-law and husband, Li Guiying was genuinely worried about affecting her sister-in-law's relationship with Brother Jiang.
"I don't know if he can come, but it's okay. You're my family now, so there's no need to be so careful," Tao Ying said with a smile.
“Sister-in-law…” Li Guiying was truly grateful.
"Guiying, have you saved enough money? I'm planning to give you the grocery store," Tao Ying said softly.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?" Li Guiying had saved enough money.
Nowadays, Li Guiying runs a general store with Grandpa Wang and Zhou Daya. Wang Dashuan works in a transportation company. Li Guiying is used to being frugal, so she is very good at saving money.
However, Li Guiying never considered selling the shop.
In Li Guiying's mind, the grocery store belonged to Tao Ying.
This is an opportunity for my sister-in-law to make money for her family.
Li Guiying didn't want to do anything ungrateful.
“We’re moving to Shanghai next year, and we’re thinking of selling the grocery store to you. We’re entrusting Mom and Dad to you,” Tao Ying said softly.
"You? The children will go too? The Jiang family agreed?" Li Guiying asked in disbelief.
“I have my own money, I can buy my own house,” Tao Ying said softly.
“That’s right. We women need to have money no matter what. Only with money can we have confidence,” Li Guiying said softly.
In the past, everyone said that they married a good man who didn't care about their own money but was willing to spend it on them.
Now I can earn money, even more than Wang Dashuan.
Wang Dashuan is treating himself better than before.
Now when I go back to my parents' home, I don't need to discuss things with Wang Dashuan anymore; I can buy whatever I want.
You don't have to be stingy when buying clothes anymore, and you don't have to worry about how much meat you eat.
"That's right." Tao Ying nodded gently.
On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Jiang Huan drove to the door.
Everyone came out to greet them.
"Brother Jiang!" Wang Dashuan greeted Jiang Huan somewhat awkwardly.
Wang Dashuan felt a little embarrassed, after all, the house belonged to his sister-in-law.
My sister-in-law has remarried, so it's really inappropriate for me to be here.
They were also worried that Brother Jiang would mind that their family was still in contact with their sister-in-law and being taken care of by her.
"Da Shuan!" Jiang Huan greeted Wang Da Shuan with a smile.
Jiang Huan genuinely didn't care about Wang Dashuan's family or Wang Chunni and her siblings.
Jiang Huan knew that Tao Ying was not the mother of any of them.
This family were the benefactors who brought Tao Ying to their side.
Especially their mother, who was sent away by someone they themselves arranged.
Therefore, in addition to gratitude, Jiang Huan also felt a sense of guilt towards Wang Chunni and her siblings.
"Little Jiang is here!" Zhou Daya greeted Jiang Huan cheerfully.
"Happy New Year, Aunt Zhou." Jiang Huan greeted Zhou Daya warmly.
Wang Baomin and Wang Baoshan carried the things Jiang Huan brought from behind.
Jiang Huan brought the car completely full this time; he had everything he could want.
“Uncle Jiang, why are you carrying so much stuff? My mom is going back to Shanghai after the New Year, and we’ll all be leaving soon too. Once Chun Tao finishes her college entrance exams, it’ll all be over,” Wang Baoshan muttered.
"It's just a little bit of food; it'll all be gone in a few days," Jiang Huan replied cheerfully.
Jiang Huan had no idea that everyone was going to move there.
However, Jiang Huan did not show it in front of the others.
He couldn't let anyone know that he wasn't as important to Tao Ying as these children.
