Chapter 139 The Sky Is About to Rain, and Mother Is About to Remarry
Believe it or not, Zhong Chengyi has actually come up with quite a few good things over the past few years.
In the last two years, the situation has improved, and people have started collecting these things again.
Zhong Chengyi usually doesn't work locally, for fear of getting into trouble.
He's quick-witted and uses his connections and connections to find ways to sell his goods. In the past two years, he's actually managed to sell quite a few items, albeit sporadically.
But nobody in the family knew about this until one night when he came home and his older brother caught him.
He managed to fool him at the time, but his older brother obviously didn't believe him, otherwise he wouldn't have been so confident when he asked him for money recently.
Zhong Chengyi has been away from home for almost half a month and has no idea that his biological mother is getting married.
He had no idea that the things he had hidden in his father's grave had been discovered by his own mother, who then dug them up!
As for Zhong Chengren, he has been hanging out with his group of cronies every day, gambling at night and sleeping during the day. He has no idea that Zhang Chunxue is getting married.
That same afternoon, he was dozing off when Meng Wanshu suddenly woke him up.
Opening his eyes groggily, Zhong Chengren was still half-asleep: "Wan Shu?"
"What's wrong? What do you want to see me about so early in the morning?"
"What do you mean 'early morning'?" Meng Wanshu was about to curse. "It's already past five in the afternoon! It's time for dinner!"
These days, Zhong Chengren has been gambling every day and hasn't seen her much.
However, since Zhong Chengren said he wanted to get some money to buy her a gold necklace, she didn't bother with him.
She only found out today that Zhang Chunxue was going to marry Song Xingzhi.
It wasn't a big deal originally, and Meng Wanshu only had a brief moment of surprise before she didn't take it to heart.
After all, back when Zhang Chunxue came to the grain and oil station to make a scene, Song Xingzhi stood up for Zhang Chunxue. Now that the two are getting married, everything makes sense.
With such a strained relationship between Meng Wanshu and Zhang Chunxue, she didn't care that Zhang Chunxue got married.
She even secretly thought that Zhong Chengfa shouldn't go either, to spite Zhang Chunxue.
But in the afternoon, someone came to their grain and oil station to buy things and mentioned that Song Xingzhi's family had come from the capital and had given Zhang Chunxue a huge red envelope as a greeting gift!
That's not all, even Zhong Xiaoxiao has it!
It's one thing for Zhong Xiaoxiao, but even Zhou Mingli, that woman, has it!
She's a woman who was divorced by Zhong Chengfa, a cleaning lady in a hospital, what right does she have?
In Meng Wanshu's view, the red envelopes were secondary; the most important thing was those people who came from the capital!
She secretly inquired and heard that many of those people were officials, and some were even officers in the military! Their identities were astonishing!
If we were to get involved with that...
Meng Wanshu was so excited that she didn't even wait until she got off work before hurriedly asking for leave to come back and find Zhong Chengren.
Zhong Chengren rubbed the sleep from the corner of his eye, somewhat impatiently: "Five o'clock is five o'clock... You're off work so early?"
"What do you mean 'off work'!" Meng Wanshu was furious. "Your mother is getting married! Did you know that?"
"Oh... fine, let's get married then..." Zhong Chengren turned over and closed his eyes.
But the next second, he suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up: "What did you say? Who's getting married? Who? My mom?"
Meng Wanshu said irritably, "That's right! It's your mother!"
"Your mom, Zhang Chunxue! She's getting married!"
Zhong Chengren stared in disbelief, and after a long while, he murmured, "My mom is getting married...to whom? When?"
"Go with Song Xingzhi! Director Song! Tomorrow!" Meng Wanshu rolled her eyes. "Is this how you act as a son?"
She scoffed again, "Your mother is really something, getting married without even telling her own son?"
"My mom doesn't know where I live!" Zhong Chengren irritably rubbed his messy hair.
"My mom is getting married to Song Xingzhi...this...this..."
I didn't realize it when Song Xingzhi went to his house for dinner before...
However, Zhong Chengren thought about it and realized he hadn't heard of Song Xingzhi ever going to anyone's house for dinner before... It seemed that Song Xingzhi had been having feelings for his mother for a long time...
"Getting married tomorrow?" Zhong Chengren was even more agitated. "So soon?"
Meng Wanshu watched him detachedly from the side: "What, are you going to stop me?"
“I…” Zhong Chengren opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn’t get the words out.
Of course he didn't want his mother to get married, because if she did, she would be living with someone else!
But if it's going to rain, or if your mother is going to remarry, there's nothing he can do to stop it.
After all, Zhang Chunxue is unlikely to listen to him now.
Five years ago, when Zhang Chunxue said she wanted to remarry, her three brothers were all against it. At that time, Zhang Chunxue compromised because she still cared about her three brothers.
Now...
Zhong Chengren's lips twitched.
His status in his mother's heart is probably not even comparable to that of Zhou Mingli!
Seeing that Zhong Chengren remained silent, Meng Wanshu snorted softly, "You're quite sensible... Do you know? The Song family has all come from the capital?"
"What are you here for?" Zhong Chengren asked instinctively.
After asking the question, he realized he had asked a stupid one and couldn't help but touch his nose.
Meng Wanshu reached out and pinched him: "Let me tell you, those members of the Song family are all extremely powerful and influential! You really shouldn't mess with them!"
She then casually added, "If we can build a good relationship with them, we might be able to reap quite a few benefits!"
She lowered her voice: "Your mother is getting married tomorrow. I heard the wedding banquet is being held at the brigade headquarters of Hongxing Brigade. As her son, you have to go and see it, right?"
Zhong Chengren sat sullenly on the edge of the bed.
When the son went to see his biological mother remarry, he felt uneasy no matter how he thought about it.
"I don't want to go..."
"You have to go!" Meng Wanshu glared at him. "Do you know that the Song family even gave that bitch Zhou Mingli a gift when they met her? They're so generous!"
Zhong Chengren scoffed, "So what? Do you expect me to be so shameless as to ask them for a small gift when I'm already in my mid-twenties?"
Meng Wanshu angrily poked his forehead: "Didn't I already tell you? Build good relationships with them! Build good relationships! You'll definitely get your share of the benefits!"
Zhong Chengren was still reluctant.
Is he someone who spends all his time at the card table trying to build good relationships with those officials... just waiting for them to arrest him?
