After Shi Lilan's accident, she actually... never dared to think about what this family looked like.
Now, by some strange coincidence, I was forced to lie back on this bed.
Shi Nianzhi was right, she arranged it according to the original layout.
The market has been bad in recent years. The house is old and dilapidated, making it difficult to rent. The rent is low, so the landlord simply leaves the house empty and doesn't take care of it. When Shi Nianzhi rented the house again, the house still maintained the same appearance as before Qin Changping hurriedly moved out.
"Nianzhi, tomorrow...how can we escape?" Qin Yuhuan knew that this was not the time for her to be sad. She wanted to get more evidence about Chen Yang from Shi Nianzhi.
"Sister, tell me...what exactly is my father doing?" Shi Nianzhi answered irrelevantly. "Chen Xiangxiang and him have an average relationship. I've heard her say several times that she'll never return to her parents' home after getting married, and I...I don't want to be filial to them either."
"He got involved in this matter because he and his uncle only wanted the 80,000 yuan that Dad (Qin Changping) took from him. They didn't want a cent more." Shi Nianzhi thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what Chen Yang was up to. "Is it just because of his job?"
But……
Chen Yang's monthly salary is just over 3,000 yuan, not to mention that he sometimes gets a pay cut. He says it's good to sit in an office, but in reality he still has to go to the countryside occasionally and take a minibus for a whole day.
After working for so many years, she still drives a manual transmission Santana, which is older than her.
Shi Nianzhi didn't believe that Chen Yang was wholeheartedly devoted to doing practical things for the people, but was this iron rice bowl really worth risking everything to keep?
He has worked for decades and his savings are only a few hundred thousand yuan, which is not as much as she can earn from participating in the variety show "Forming a Group".
"Nianzhi, everyone values different things. For him, a stable job is worth sacrificing everything. This job not only protects his first half of life, but also his retirement. You think this job is not valuable because the average salary in this area is low. In Jincheng, the same position can earn 200,000 yuan a year."
After saying that, Qin Yuhuan heard a very arrogant snort in his ears.
Taking advantage of the fact that Shi Nianzhi couldn't see, she looked at the ceiling and smiled.
Ziyi said sourly, "Nianzhi Nianzhi, Sister Yu Huan calls me so affectionately, and even wants to sleep in the same bed with me. I won't tell you about that poor little girl who has to sleep alone tonight."
Qin Yuhuan smiled silently with her eyes curved.
Sure enough, Ziyi was the source of her happiness, and the sadness that had just risen up was dissipated a lot by Ziyi's teasing.
"Sister, don't worry. Chen Yang will get his comeuppance for using such a sinister trick." Shi Nianzhi still didn't respond to Qin Yuhuan's question. She just insisted on her first words, trying to comfort Qin Yuhuan. "You will be safe too. We will always be together."
Qin Yuhuan keenly noticed that something was wrong with Shi Nianzhi, but the events of the past two days really made her head swell, making it difficult for her to maintain the best state to think quickly.
"Go to sleep, sister. I'm not far from you. Don't be afraid." It was the gentle words that made Qin Yuhuan increasingly sleepy.
After Qin Yuhuan remained silent for a long time, Ziyi finally answered Zhao Fengzhuo's call.
"Yiyi, this is something your grandma did that was not right. I've already agreed with her that she'll be living in a nursing home for the next few years. I'll spend more time with her. You..."
"Dad, as long as you can make sure Grandma doesn't act up again, it doesn't matter whether she lives in a nursing home or not. After all, the old house is no different from a nursing home."
There is a dedicated team of private doctors, housekeepers, chefs, and aunties. Except for the lack of advanced medical equipment, the comfort of living in the old house is definitely greater than that in a nursing home.
As far as Ziyi knew, Ji Minjun had less than four years left to live. In his previous life, Ji Minjun passed away in his sleep.
In the evening, she sat in the rocking chair in the garden to enjoy the sunset as usual. As she was watching, her aunt thought she had fallen asleep and went to cover her with a blanket. As a result...
Zhao Fengzhuo hung up the phone and sat in the office crying late at night. When Ziyu came over, his eyes were swollen like walnuts.
"Look good, come home with me." Zi Yu came with the room full of light, just like in the past years, and stretched out her hand to him.
"I do feel ashamed," Zhao Fengzhuo lowered his head, tears still falling. "I know I can't spoil my mother, but I can't forget how she protected me when I was little."
Ziyu patted Zhao Fengzhuo's head a few times and said, "Those are two different things. They can't be mixed together. Let's just do our own duties well."
The old lady is old-fashioned and strict, and has her own plans.
Just like back then, she also thought the old lady was cruel.
But in fact, the five million yuan given to her was not recovered even though it was discovered not long after that she and Lao Zhao were still connected by thousands of threads.
I can only say that this is a real-life strong woman who successfully started her own business while raising a baby, but behind her stood an old lady who raised insects and watched the show.
Five million was an opportunity thrown away by Ji Minjun, which was a drop in the bucket for the entire Zhao family. If they were not well-matched, then what Ji Minjun needed was a female general who could fight, a woman whom her son could trust with his back, rather than a daughter-in-law who relied on her husband like a little bird.
Ziyu didn't figure it out when she was young, and she didn't figure it out before her career became big. But when she turned Chunyang Cottage into one of the best companies in the country and stood at the top of the mountain, she suddenly understood.
How could a woman who could protect her property and raise children while surrounded by wolves be just a simple old lady?
As a former corporate boss and a mother, she knew too well the weakness of Zhao Fengzhuo's excessive humility.
Therefore, when Zhao Fengzhuo gave up on helping with the marriage, Ji Minjun chose to raise Gu.
The reason why Ziyi was able to return to the Zhao family at the age of 18 was certainly because Zhao Fengzhuo had insisted on not getting married for many years, but there was another more important reason, which was Ziyu's success and Ziyi's potential that could be cultivated that was visible to the naked eye.
Ziyi is more likely to be a successful person in power than her father.
At this point, we can only say that parents love their children and have long-term plans for them. Between Zhao and Zhao Fengzhuo, the old lady values Zhao's long-term development more, so she is obsessed with Ziyi's surname.
Zhao was the life's work of her husband and the place where she had devoted her life. She could not bear to watch this behemoth change its surname to someone else's.
For this, Ji Minjun can give everything.
In this matter, Ziyu did not agree with the old lady's almost cruel behavior, but she could understand her.
"Then what do you think...what should I do next?" Zhao Fengzhuo wiped away his tears. "You and Yiyi's indifference to each other often makes me feel that I owe you two."
