Xie Yunshu frowned and said nothing. Her first impression of Zhou Meizhen was that she was pitiful, but she was not very interested in being her goddaughter.
In the evening, the family sat together for dinner. Li Fenlan saw cigarettes and alcohol in the corner again, and suddenly asked tentatively: "Yun Shu, don't you like the Ji family?"
Xie Yunshu smiled: "Mom, what are you thinking? They haven't bullied me. Ji Siyuan and I are still friends. Why shouldn't I like them?"
Does she hate someone just because they said they accepted her as their goddaughter? How could she be so narrow-minded?
Now her mind was full of only two things, one was going to Beijing to get married with Shen Subai, and the other was how to develop the construction company in the future. She didn't take the matter of the goddaughter to heart.
Li Fenlan was worried. She thought that if Ji Cheng hadn't come with his three sons today, she would have been so panicked that she wouldn't know how to receive her in-laws.
“Yun Shu…”
She murmured, the brother and sister opposite were discussing some topic she couldn't understand.
"When you go to Jingbei University, remember to participate in more competitions. It will be good for you to pursue scientific research in the future."
"Sister, the IPhO will be held in this month, and contestants cannot be over 괗굛 years old. I just happen to be eligible to participate."
Xie Yunshu knew a little about this competition. It was a world-class top competition: "It's already great if you can participate. You don't have to force yourself to win a prize."
Xie Mingcheng said nothing. He did not say that the moment he received the application form, he asked his high school physics teacher to find university courses and started to study on his own.
In the past, it was the reality that forced him to move forward, but now that the shackles of reality have been removed and he no longer has to worry about material things, for him, university life is as vast as the sea for fish to leap and the sky for birds to fly.
He couldn't wait to fly higher.
Li Fenlan was about to say something but remained silent. It was not until she went to bed at night that she hesitantly went to Xie Yunshu's room.
Xie Yunshu had just finished taking a shower, with her wet curly hair draped behind her head. She wiped her hair while concentrating on the design drawing on the table.
Zhuangyuanlou was just a rough draft, without any details or general outline drawn. It was just like lighting a fire for a meal. She had been delayed for the past two days because of her engagement, so she had to work overtime.
Seeing Li Fenlan coming in, Xie Yunshu acted like a little girl, and said in a proud and naughty tone: "Mom, do you think I'm awesome? I can build my own house now!"
If dad were here, he would definitely be proud!
Li Fenlan was also very proud. She looked at the drawings for a while but couldn't understand anything. However, she was happy: "My daughter has always been very good."
She often thought, if Yun Shu was not her daughter, but the daughter of another wealthy family, how dazzling and dazzling she would be. She would not have to drop out of school early to support the family, nor would she marry into the Lu family and be looked down upon...
The mother and daughter said some heartfelt words. Seeing that Li Fenlan was a little absent-minded, Xie Yunshu collected the drawings on the table and asked, "Mom, what do you want to say?"
Li Fenlan sat on the crib, looked at her daughter and said sadly, "Yunshu, is mommy useless?"
Mom started to feel sentimental again...
Xie Yunshu smiled and hugged her arms: "A child without a mother is a weed. Without you, wouldn't my brother and I be weeds?"
Li Fenlan felt her daughter's warmth and she slowly said, "Become the Ji family's goddaughter."
"Mom?" Xie Yunshu stood up and carefully observed Li Fenlan's expression: "Why are you talking about this again?"
Li Fenlan was serious this time. Although she had a narrow vision, she analyzed the matter very clearly: "The Ji family has two sons, so they won't need you to take care of them in their old age. Besides, you're getting married soon, so they can't interfere with your marriage. Mom, think it through. Being the Ji family's goddaughter will only benefit you, not harm you."
Her kind mother actually said such a thing. Xie Yunshu was shocked: "Mom, I never thought of taking advantage of the Ji family."
"I know, but my mother's family is too weak, so this won't work."
Li Fenlan frowned, and although she still looked weak, her attitude gradually became firm: "Just think of it as me trying to take advantage of the Ji family. When you get married, go to Jingbei. Your mother can't support you, but the Ji family can."
Xie Yunshu was stunned. She had a lot of thoughts in her mind. She wanted to say that she didn't need anyone's support, and she also wanted to say that Shen Subai would not let her suffer any grievances in Jingbei, but in the end she said nothing.
She just hugged her soft-tempered mother and rubbed her: "Mom, I will be your daughter for the rest of my life, right?"
Li Fenlan laughed: "Silly girl, what's so good about me as a mother?"
Compared to Su Qinglian and Zhou Meizhen, she was not strong enough in character, had nothing to worry about, had a bunch of troublesome family members, and married a man who died early.
Besides suffering, what can the child enjoy by following her?
"Everywhere is good." Xie Yunshu smiled, tilting his head and blinking like he did when he was a child: "My mother is pretty, I look like her!"
This is indeed true, the Xie siblings all inherited Li Fenlan's good looks.
Li Fenlan smiled slowly. Everyone said she was kind and gentle, but for the sake of the children, she had to be a mean person for once.
Shen Subai went back to the East District to hand over the final information. His approval process should have reached the top, just waiting for signature and stamp, so now he is in a semi-resigned state.
After packing up his things and leaving the dormitory, the guys he brought with him were reluctant to let him go: "Captain Shen, are you leaving just like that? We are still waiting to attend your wedding."
Shen Subai smiled faintly: "I really asked you to give gifts, but you are not happy."
The serious Captain Shen actually joked with them, and several young people also laughed: "Can't we just go to the wedding with a mouthful of wine?"
"That's fine." Shen Subai looked relaxed, carrying a simple bag in his hand, and looked at a few people: "Work more seriously in the future, and there must be no mistakes in security issues. You have more than just a few documents in your hands."
They were used to being scolded, but now that Captain Shen was leaving, they felt that his words were particularly kind.
One of them, who wears glasses, lives opposite Shen Subai's dormitory. Last time Xie Yunshu came, Shen Subai stayed with him for one night: "Captain Shen, isn't your sister-in-law an architect? Maybe she will deal with us in the future!"
Chen Subai curled his lips: "Then please be merciful in advance."
In construction projects, the safety audit process is cumbersome and tedious, but Shen Subai is in this field, so she can naturally be a good helper to Xie Yunshu. She has not really come into contact with big projects yet, and she will inevitably have to deal with the safety audit department in the future.
So he must avoid it.
Several people still had to go to work, so they left reluctantly after chatting for a while, and agreed to send them invitations when Shen Subai got married.
Such a relationship would be very helpful to Xie Yunshu's career in the future, so Shen Subai naturally agreed.
After waiting for the guys to leave, Shen Subai prepared to go back to the West District to meet Xie Yunshu, and then take a plane to Zhucheng.
Tang Lin stood in front of his car and looked at him steadily: "Is it really worth it to give up your future for her?"
Shen Subai looked at her with no emotion in his eyes: "Tang Lin, go back to Jingbei."
