Shen Huanxi thought about it and there were many reasons.
In this life, Su Chaoyang can no longer rely on her for food. He is now following Su Liming. If Su Liming is doing well, it means that Su Chaoyang is also doing well. She doesn't want Su Chaoyang to have a better life.
Su Qiangwen and Su Qiangwu always mocked Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng, and she didn't want Su Qiangwen and Su Qiangwu to have more confidence.
Moreover, she has already been involved in the Three Norths Project and can go to protect Chang'an and Changning. The more money she has, the better, as long as it does not affect her work.
She also didn't want to see Xiao Shanhe being mocked and looked down upon by Lan Linxiang again.
She doesn’t want to…
The more Shen Huanxi thought about it, the more reasons he came up with.
She looked at Xiao Shanhe:
"There are many reasons..."
For a moment she didn't know where to start and just stammered.
Xiao Shanhe looked at her like this, smiled, and held her hand slightly, very seriously:
"Is it because of me?"
"Huh?" Shen Huanxi was stunned.
It's because of him, and there are indeed reasons for this, but it's not entirely because of him...
"I understand, thank you, I'm very happy." Xiao Shanhe said with a smile.
Shen Huanxi: “…”
She seemed to have been misunderstood.
"But I'm sorry that you and Lan Linxiang quarreled because of me. You never like to quarrel with others. It's all my fault. But don't worry, Lan Linxiang is a thing of the past to me. I won't let you down. You don't have to take her seriously."
"I'm not...I..." Shen Huanxi didn't know what to say, it seemed that Xiao Shanhe's misunderstanding was getting deeper and deeper.
If she said now that she had been having an affair with Lan Linxiang before he came, and that it was because of the child and had nothing to do with him, would he believe it?
But seeing that Xiao Shanhe looked apologetic and happy, Shen Huanxi couldn't bear to tell the truth.
In fact, she didn't want to have any conflicts with Lan Linxiang at all.
Both Lan Linxiang and she were reborn. She was hoping to learn from Lan Linxiang the reason why Xiao Shanhe buried her in his previous life. But now that she and Lan Linxiang have a quarrel, she has no chance to ask. It's good enough that Lan Linxiang doesn't quarrel with her.
But there was nothing she could do about it, because of Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng, she and Lan Linxiang had a falling out. Since Xiao Shanhe thought that she and Lan Linxiang had a falling out because of him, and she felt guilty and happy about it, how could she deny it? She could only admit it, and she didn't want to disappoint Xiao Shanhe.
So Shen Huanxi nodded.
"Yes! So I must make this factory a success. I want to do better than Su Liming. I can't let Lan Linxiang overpower me."
"You don't have to compete with her for me. She is a thing of the past to me. But if you insist on being better than her, I will continue to help you." Xiao Shanhe said seriously again.
Shen Huanxi was silent for a while, not knowing what to feel.
Fortunately, Xiao Shanhe will be a hero of the Republic in the future and a great figure who can make a significant contribution to the history of the motherland's development. Otherwise, with his narcissistic appearance, she might really call him a "Pu Xin man."
Forget it, forget it…
No. Shen Huanxi just reacted and said he would continue to help her?
She shook her head hastily.
"You've helped me a lot. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know where to get a juicer. You can't buy one these days. You also helped me register it with the Industry and Commerce Bureau, as well as other things. Although I can do it by myself, you helped me save a lot of trouble. It wouldn't be that convenient without you."
"I should do it." Xiao Shanhe looked at her anxious expression and said, "You just said in front of Su Liming that I have better business acumen than him. I can't let you down."
"No, it's not that I'm ungrateful. I just hope that you can focus on train power. Although you told me that you didn't neglect your profession because of helping me, you have wasted your energy on my factory after all, and I feel sorry..." Shen Huanxi still wanted to persuade Xiao Shanhe.
She had been a very successful businesswoman in her previous life. She didn't want a man with business acumen. If she wanted a man with business acumen, why would she choose Xiao Shanhe?
Regardless of anything else, just looking at whether he likes it or not, Shen Huanxi still feels that compared with a business tycoon, a great contributor to the Republic is more attractive.
There are countless men who are good at business, but how many of them can become heroes of the motherland like Xiao Shanhe in his previous life, and be respectfully addressed as "Mr. Xiao" by the People's Liberation Army troops in the capital?
She wanted to accompany him for the rest of his life, watching him grow from the unknown Xiao Shanhe to the respected Mr. Xiao. She didn't want his life trajectory to change because of her appearance.
He still hoped that he could become "Mr. Xiao" smoothly like in his previous life.
"I have designed an automated production line for you. The juicer I designed before can only be produced in small batches. The main reason is that I know we can't build the factory right away. We have to produce at home temporarily before the factory is built. That's why we need a juicer temporarily. Take a look at the assembly line production line I designed." Xiao Shanhe seemed not to hear what she said, and took out a notebook to show Shen Huanxi.
Shen Huanxi was suddenly speechless. No matter how much she tried to persuade him, this man was just determined to help her?
"I really...can you design more train power?" Shen Huanxi didn't know whether he should be angry or moved.
Why is he so attentive to her?
Xiao Shanhe saw that she was worried about him, but his smile became even brighter.
"I have never given it up. Don't you want to surpass Su Liming's factory? The automated production line I designed will definitely be the most advanced in the country once it is completed. I have learned that even Luo Bo's canning factory is still operated by workers and has no automated production line. With this production line I designed, you can easily surpass Luo Bo and then Su Liming."
"Xiao Shanhe, go do business. You have business acumen and the ability to design your own production line. If you start a factory, no one can beat you!" Shen Huanxi said this deliberately because he insisted on helping him no matter how he persuaded him.
Xiao Shanhe would definitely not go into business. Lan Linxiang had persuaded him for so many years but he still hadn't done it. She would definitely not be able to persuade him. As long as she said this deliberately, Xiao Shanhe would definitely refuse. Then she could say:
That's it. Since you're not going to do business anyway, just go design your train power instead of interfering with my factory.
Shen Huanxi had everything planned out, and then Xiao Shanhe nodded:
"Well, if that's what you want me to do, I'll go. What do you want me to do?"
Shen Huanxi: “!!!!!!!”
"I'm not, I..." Shen Huanxi stammered.
What can she do when Xiao Shanhe doesn't play by the rules?
"Xiao Shanhe, you really should go back and design the train power. I want to sell my juice all over the country, but you also know that the transportation cost is very high now. Su Liming's factory has encountered such a problem. If railway transportation develops, I don't have to worry about this, don't you think?" Shen Huanxi saved the country in a roundabout way.
"When I have the chance, I will go back. My physical condition does not allow me to do on-site experiments. I can't just watch you do so much without helping me." Xiao Shanhe said.
"Well... okay." Shen Huanxi was speechless, and the problem came back to the original point.
So she had to build up the factory as soon as possible so that she could earn enough money to treat his leg as soon as possible.
She just didn't believe that after his leg was healed, he wouldn't go back to his job?
"Then let's go home." Xiao Shanhe looked at her tenderly and smiled happily.
"Okay." Shen Huanxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why was he so happy? She took the automated production line drawing he drew and put it away. It was a very important thing that would be used later.
Shen Huanxi pushed Xiao Shanhe's wheelchair, and the two of them went out of the alley. Two men in work clothes from a state-owned machinery factory were walking towards them. When they saw Xiao Shanhe, they quickened their pace. It seemed that they knew Xiao Shanhe.
"Old Xiao, why are you here? The juicer you asked us to make is ready and is being sent to your house. You should go back and check it yourself. If there is anything not done well, please tell us as soon as possible and we will correct it for you. Ah, this is..." A worker was halfway through his words when he noticed Shen Huanxi.
Xiao Shanhe looked very proud.
"My love, Xiao Shen, just met my ex-wife. I'm a little emotional and jealous." Xiao Shanhe said happily.
The two workers laughed, and one of them had an "I understand" expression on his face.
Shen Huanxi: “…”
"By the way, Lao Zhou, has your wife ever quarreled with you about this kind of thing? Is she just jealous?" Xiao Shanhe asked again.
"no."
"Ah..." Xiao Shanhe sighed, "I don't know what to do. My wife is making fun of me in broad daylight in front of everyone because of these things. I have to comfort her when I get home."
Shen Huanxi: “…”
If Xiao Shanhe wasn't good-looking and capable, she really wanted to slap the words "Pu Xinnan" on his forehead.
Is it necessary for him to be so proud?
He is not complaining at all, he is just being Versailles.
"Wife, I just said that what she said to me is in the past. You can stop being angry and say hello to my two friends first."
But she still gritted her teeth and greeted the two workers.
"Hello..."
"Okay, okay. Hello, Comrade Xiao Shen. I didn't expect you two have such a good relationship. Congratulations. We have known Lao Xiao for a long time. My last name is Zhou Li, and your last name is Li Qi. We were colleagues at Lao Xiao's machinery factory many years ago. We have known each other for many years and are good buddies. If you need any help in the future, just call us."
"Yes, your matter is Lao Xiao's matter, we will help in any way we can. We have things to do back at the machinery factory, let's talk when we have time later." Li Qi continued.
"Okay." Shen Huanxi waved goodbye to Zhou Li and Li Qi, and finally saw them off.
After walking for a while, Zhou Li and Li Qi couldn't help talking about Xiao Shanhe and Shen Huanxi.
"Old Zhou, why is Old Xiao so unlucky? Both of his daughters-in-law are so easily angered. This one is the same as the previous one, always enjoying making trouble in public." Li Qi sighed as he spoke, and turned around to look at Shen Huanxi.
Zhou Li was so disappointed that he couldn't make up his mind.
"Old Li, you are already over 30 years old and still haven't found a wife. Haven't you ever looked for the reason yourself?"
"What do you mean? Are you saying that I can't tolerate a woman's bad temper like Lao Xiao? But isn't the reason I'm looking for a wife to make our lives better? If she's unhappy and keeps scolding me, I won't be happy either. I'm not like Lao Xiao."
"Then take a look at yourself. Does Lao Xiao look unhappy?" Zhou Li pointed behind him.
Li Qi turned around and saw Xiao Shanhe and Shen Huanxi talking and laughing, and he was confused.
"Hey, hey, hey...what's going on? Didn't Lao Xiao just say that Comrade Xiao Shen was in a bad mood?"
"Didn't you hear that Lao Xiao was showing off? He said his wife was jealous. Do you know what jealous means? It means Comrade Xiao Shen cares about him."
"Ah... So, Old Xiao Zhen is just showing off?"
"That's right! Didn't you see that Lao Xiao was very happy just now? His mouth was smiling so much that it almost reached his ears, but you couldn't see it. Look at him now... Hey, the two of them are holding hands, tsk tsk tsk."
"Oh, it's true." Li Qi couldn't help laughing when he looked at the expressions of Shen Huanxi and Xiao Shanhe. "So Old Shen has really met the right person this time. That's good. I used to see him quarreling with Comrade Lan every day, and they quarreled fiercely. I was wondering why he was smiling when he said Comrade Xiao Shen was in a bad mood just now. It turns out that he was not really in a bad mood at all."
"That's it. Old Xiao is now in much better spirits than before. Comrade Xiao Shen is really amazing. This time Old Xiao has really found someone to live a good life with. You are just a blockhead and don't know anything about the relationship between men and women. You need to learn more in the future. Anyone with a little foresight would have found a wife long ago."
…
Before Shen Huanxi and Xiao Shanhe reached the front door of their house, they saw a lot of commotion there, with many people gathered to watch something.
It's obvious that this is the juicer made by Xiao Shanhe at the machinery factory. Come and take a look.
Shen Huanxi also knew that in that era, there were no juicers in households. Since everyone wanted to see it, she would let them see it. Just think of it as a promotion, letting the neighbors know that she was going to sell juice.
The four children have all returned from the Children's Palace. Seeing so many people gathering around their family's new toys, the children all had proud smiles on their faces.
"My dad asked someone to make this for my mom. No matter what method my mom uses, he will make it for her as long as she wants it," said Xiao Yutang.
Xiao Yuzheng also nodded.
"My dad asked someone to make this for my mom!"
"This thing is used to make juice. My mother didn't say she wanted it, but when he heard my mother say that he wanted to make juice and sell it, he asked someone to help my mother make it without waiting for her to say anything." Xiao Yutang added.
"My father is very obedient to my mother. Even if my mother doesn't tell him, he knows what to give her."
"When my dad has some free time, he finds ways to be nice to my mom."
…
Shen Huanxi was outside the crowd and heard Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yu shouting inside. The two boys shouted louder and louder, as if they were afraid that others couldn't hear them.
Shen Huanxi looked down at Xiao Shanhe and saw the man smiling with the corners of his mouth curved.
The people inside who heard what Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng said couldn't help but laugh.
"We came here to see the new things in your house, but you two didn't introduce them to us. Instead, you are here to show off how close your parents are." Aunt Jiang said.
Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng are very proud.
"We're not showing off, we're just telling the truth. Otherwise, why would we have this thing at home? My mom wanted it, so my dad made it."
"Yes! If mom didn't want it, why would dad do it? Our dad has never made anything like this before, hehe..."
Everyone looked at the two boys so happy and said nothing.
The neighbors in Guixiang Village all knew that Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yu had suffered from their parents' discord and had envied other children whose parents had a good relationship since they were young.
Even though Shen Huanxi is not their biological mother, the stepmother and Xiao Shanhe are so loving and affectionate, which makes them have a warm and harmonious family. Many people in Guixiang Village used to feel sorry for Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng. Now that they see how happy they are, how could they pour cold water on their happiness?
So no one mentioned the fact that Shen Huanxi was their stepmother. Since the two children now seemed to regard Shen Huanxi as their biological mother, let them continue to be happy.
Changan and Changning probably felt the same as Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng. However, the two girls did not grow up in Guixiang Village, and they were not as familiar with their neighbors as Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng. They were not as direct as Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yuzheng, and just smiled happily.
The neighbors had only known Chang'an and Changning for a short time, but the two girls were well-behaved, sensible and polite, and everyone liked them very much. Seeing the two girls so happy, they were happy for them too.
But some people still asked Zhang Guifen with some concern.
"Auntie Zhang, this thing Xiao Shen made is for making sea buckthorn juice, right? She bought a lot of sea buckthorn berries these past two days. They are sour and astringent. Will anyone really drink it if it's made into juice? Can it really be sold?"
"That's right, Aunt Zhang, I think Xiao Shen is really fooling around this time. She might just be acting on a whim. Did your Dashan make this for her? I heard it cost more than a hundred yuan."
"Alas, where is the mountain holding her back now? Isn't Aunt Zhang holding her back as well? Have you forgotten who helped her pick sea buckthorn berries when Comrade Xiao Shen was away these two days? Wasn't that Aunt Zhang? The berries are so sour that they make people frown just by eating them. Wouldn't it be even more sour if they were made into juice?"
"It's okay to be jealous, but there's also a strange smell. Dashan and Aunt Zhang are really impulsive. The way you treat Xiao Shen is just doting."
…
Everyone shook their heads as they spoke, and they all felt that Zhang Guifen and Xiao Shanhe would lose a lot of money this time.
Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yu were sitting with their hips hunched and their heads held high.
"What do you know? My grandma and dad are like that. No matter what my mom asks for, even if it's unreasonable, as long as it's from my mom, they will satisfy it."
"Yes! As long as mom wants to do it, dad and grandma will support it!"
"Not only my dad and mom, but also me, my brother, and my two sisters. We all support my mom unconditionally. She's just good to us!"
"whee……"
…
Zhang Guifen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when listening to what the two boys said.
"Come on, both of you, stop talking nonsense. Well, they are actually right. Our family is happy with whatever Huanxi wants. But our Huanxi didn't mess around this time. Sea buckthorn has a weird smell and is sour, but she is able to make delicious sea buckthorn juice. If you don't believe me, come and try it."
"And sea buckthorn juice is not only delicious, it is also rich in vitamin C and lutein." Shen Huanxi supplemented outside.
Everyone then realized that she was back and looked at her.
For a moment, those people who had just accused her of being ridiculous felt a little embarrassed, wondering if she had heard what they had just said.
"What is vegetarian? What is that?" asked Aunt Zhou.
Those who had just accused her of being ridiculous also breathed a sigh of relief, at least the topic was changed.
Shen Huanxi explained: "It's just some nutrients. The content in seabuckthorn fruit is very high. In short, it's a good thing, suitable for all ages. It can also promote blood circulation and lower blood pressure, and help digestion and strengthen the stomach. If you don't believe me, go ask your doctor, he will definitely understand."
There were not many people who had been to school these days, so they did not understand what Shen Huanxi was talking about vitamin lutein. But when they heard her directly talk about the benefits of sea buckthorn fruit and told them to ask a doctor, they all believed her.
Shen Huanxi was definitely not lying, because if he was lying, how could he dare to ask them to consult a doctor?
"But this stuff is really sour and smells bad. How can you make something sour and smelly drinkable? It makes me frown when I smell it."
"Xiao Shen said this thing has many benefits. Isn't it medicine? Good medicine tastes bitter, is that what you mean? But I won't take medicine if I have nothing to do."
…
Everyone shook their heads.
"No, our children all like to drink it. Just trust my wife, and when she makes it, you can come and try it." Xiao Shanhe was not the kind of person who would just sit there and say nothing, so he came over and said.
The impression he gave to the people of Guixiang Village was that he never lied and was very reliable. When they heard him say this, many of them believed it a little and gathered around him, wanting to find out what was going on.
After all, it is not easy to turn something that tastes bad and smells bad into drinkable juice that children like to drink.
"Dashan, are you telling the truth? I see that your children are very nice to Comrade Xiao Shen. Our whole family obeys her in everything. Could it be that the children are pretending to like songs just to obey her?" someone asked.
Xiao Shanhe smiled and shook his head.
"No, this sea buckthorn juice..."
Xiao Shanhe was patiently describing the taste and flavor of sea buckthorn juice to the neighbors, and Shen Huanxi kept silent and let him explain.
You can't become fat in one bite, but you do become fat by eating one bite at a time. Don't underestimate these neighbors. If she wants to promote her business, she can start with the people around her.
Zhang Guifen stopped interrupting and walked to Shen Huanxi's side.
"How's it going, Huanxi? Did you buy the freezer?"
"The purchase has been completed, but we still have to wait a few more days for it to arrive. By the way, Mom, was Dashan a person who liked to show off?" Shen Huanxi asked.
Zhang Guifen didn't understand why Shen Huanxi suddenly asked this question and shook her head truthfully.
"What is he bragging about? I've never seen him showing off. He ranked first in the whole school in the college entrance examination. If the teacher hadn't sent me the report card and set off two strings of firecrackers, no one in Guixiang Village would know about it. He also wouldn't let me tell anyone."
"Really..." Shen Huanxi glanced at Xiao Shanhe, "Then he really didn't show off anything else?"
"No, why are you asking?" Zhang Guifen was confused when she heard Shen Huanxi ask this.
"Really? I heard that he got married earlier than his classmates in college. When he got married, did he not show off to his classmates?"
