It was snowing lightly that day. Song Zhiyao rubbed her hands as she walked after getting off the bus, thinking that it was a good thing that she had received her salary in the past few months and bought thick clothes for herself and her family.
It can't be this cold, you will definitely catch a cold.
In the past few months, after Song Zhiyao received her salary, she gave some of it to Lai Yanling to pay off her debts, but the other party refused to accept it.
"The debts are my business, and I'm the one who has to pay them back. Put your salary away and buy some nice clothes instead of wearing the same ones all day long."
No matter what Song Zhiyao said, Lai Yanling insisted on doing that. Song Zhiyao got angry at her later. She only got 2 yuan for beating him, but she used the 2 yuan to make delicious food for her.
Song Zhiyao knew that Lai Yanling's mind could not be changed, so she saved up several months' salary and bought a thick cotton jacket for everyone in the family.
Recently there are many people setting up stalls in the market. I heard from them that they import goods from the south. The designs are nice and cheap. It only costs 10 yuan to buy 4 pieces.
This was something she had never dared to think about before. Lai Yanling felt sorry for Song Zhiyao spending so much money on clothes, but when she heard that it was only 10 yuan, she didn't complain.
I just told her not to buy anything for the family in the future, to keep her money, and to do whatever she wants with it.
Thinking that clothes were cheap and she had received her salary in the past few months, she also bought one for Luo Hongxing and one for Liao Shujuan. After delivering them to the steel plant, Song Zhiyao did not go in.
I said loudly to the security guard, "Uncle, I have saved some money from work in the past few months, and I thought about how good my parents are to me. Now that it's cold, I will buy them each a cotton coat.
They definitely don't want to see me, please help me send it to them later."
When Song Zhiyao went to the steel plant, she deliberately did not wear a new cotton coat. She was so cold that her lips were a little purple. This was the effect she wanted.
The Luo family has been good to her, and now she is repaying them with actions.
The old man looked at Song Zhiyao who left quickly after delivering the things, and murmured to himself, "The real daughter of the Luo family is not as filial as this fake daughter. She only earned a few months' money and bought two cotton clothes.
Look at this child who doesn’t even have a nice piece of clothing to wear, yet he’s still thinking about his parents. It’s really not easy.”
After saying that, he looked at the cotton coat in his hand and felt it, and sighed in his heart that the clothes were of good quality and fine workmanship, and it was obvious at first glance that it cost a lot of money.
Calculating Song Zhiyao's salary for the past few months, apart from food and drink, she must have given some money to her family as the Song family was not well off, and the rest of the money must have been used to buy these two pieces of clothing.
I also wondered why such a filial and excellent girl was not from his family?
When the security guard saw people coming back, he would tell people about Song Zhiyao's visit to deliver clothes to the factory director's home. All he said was about the child, and how hard it was for her, yet she was still so filial.
When Luo Hongxing came back, he was stopped by the security guard, "Director, I envy you for having such a good daughter!"
Luo Hongxing thought that the security guard was talking about Luo Meixin. Thinking that Luo Meixin had recently been liked by her old leader's son, he felt very happy.
Their family will get better and better in the future, and I just want to be humble.
But I heard the security guard say, "Zhiyao has been well-behaved since she was young. Although she left the Luo family, she still thinks about you. Today, she bought you two pieces of clothes.
I see that child doesn’t even have a cotton coat to wear! Director, look at the quality, one coat must cost a lot of money, and in this weather it’s hard to get one even if you have money.”
When Luo Hongxing heard that they were talking about Song Zhiyao, his expression became slightly embarrassed. He could only nod to deal with the security guard, picked up the two pieces of clothing and went home.
Every word of praise from others sounded so harsh to Luo Hongxing's ears. During this period of time, he had been brainwashed by Luo Meixin and Liao Shujuan and felt that Song Zhiyao was an ungrateful person.
Before, he wanted Song Zhiyao to become the daughter-in-law of his old leader. Now that his own daughter has done it, what is there for Song Zhiyao to do?
He also thought of the conflict between Song Zhiyao and Luo Meixin last time, which caused people in the steel plant compound to talk about their family. They felt that they didn't give their own daughter food, so Luo Meixin went to the Song family to eat.
His mortal enemy, the deputy director, even deliberately said, "Director Luo, I didn't expect your family to be so poor that your daughter couldn't even afford to eat after returning home, and she had to go back to the impoverished Song family to beg for money."
Fortunately, the news only spread for a day or two and no one talked about it. If this incident affected the Luo family and Luo Meixin, Luo Hongxing would definitely not let Song Zhiyao off.
After this incident, Luo Hongxing completely hated Song Zhiyao. Now, how could he be happy when he heard others praising him in his ears?
Song Zhiyao knew the Luo family very well. Luo Hongxing was the factory director. He seemed upright on the surface, but he was actually very scheming and liked to be flattered.
Praising Song Zhiyao, the fake daughter, in front of Luo Hongxing was nothing but a slap in his face. He didn't like to hear that his biological daughter couldn't compare to his fake daughter.
However, the entire family compound knew about Song Zhiyao’s filial piety today.
Luo Hongxing took the clothes home with an unhappy look on his face. Luo Meixin was a person who didn't know much, and when she saw the two cotton-padded jackets he took, she stepped forward to grab them and have a look.

"Dad, the quality of this cotton-padded jacket is really good. Did you buy it for me?" As he said this, he held up the lady's jacket and demonstrated it.
No one noticed that Luo Hongxing, who was standing by, was secretly getting angry. Luo Meixin's two sisters-in-law saw this scene, and the cowardly eldest sister-in-law Wang Meihua wanted to step forward to remind them.
She was stopped by the fierce second sister-in-law Li Hongmei. Li Hongmei disliked her sister-in-law very much. After returning home, she made all kinds of trouble and disliked both her and her eldest sister-in-law.
She treated them both as babysitters and liked to order them to do this and that. If it weren't for the pressure from her parents-in-law, the hot-tempered Li Hongmei would have wanted to curse them long ago.
Now seeing that Luo Hongxing was about to get angry at Luo Meixin, Li Hongmei was eager to see such a scene, so she pulled Wang Meihua aside.
"Sister-in-law, we should stay out of our father's business. As his daughters-in-law, we should not get involved in the old man's affairs. Mei Xin is his precious daughter and nothing will happen to her."
As soon as Li Hongmei finished speaking, she heard Luo Hongxing yelling at Luo Meixin, "You only know how to eat and drink all day long, and you work for three days and rest for two days. If you don't want to do this anymore, just sell your job."
Seeing Luo Meixin coming home so early, Luo Hongxing usually didn't think there was anything wrong. He thought it was okay for his daughter to be happy when she came back. The most important thing was that his daughter was about to marry into her old leader's family.
She will enjoy a better life in the future. It's just a job. When her old boss is gone, her family will find her another job.
Now Luo Hongxing, who is very angry, compares Luo Meixin with Song Zhiyao, which makes him even more angry recently, which leads to this scene.
Luo Meixin was confused by the sudden scolding and felt very aggrieved.
She is a selfish person and doesn't care who the other person is. Thinking that the man she is about to marry will become a high-ranking official in the future, she feels more confident.
He held his head high and said to Luo Hongxing, "Dad, why are you so mad? It's just a torn cotton-padded jacket. If you don't want me to wear it, then I won't wear it. Is there any need to get so angry?"
