Ziyi turned off the computer, asked her assistant to come in and help clean up the table, and then she took the elevator to the garage.
"Your mother and I both think that the two Shu brothers have no talent for business and no conscience."
Zhao Fengzhuo shook his head.
The essence of capital is to constantly sweep up the surplus value generated by employees, thereby expanding reproduction. As a result, Shu Baiqi was exploited, and the money went into other people's pockets. In the food chain, he himself belonged to the exploited layer.
Ziyi was amused, "Dad, we are all capitalists. Isn't it a bit funny for a capitalist to talk about conscience?"
"That depends on what kind of capitalists we are. We are powerful," Zhao Fengzhuo said righteously. "Otherwise, how do you think the Zhao family has survived for so many years without being eaten? Our family's money belongs to us and the country."
"Besides, is our family's promotion of 996 a blessing? No, it's not. We advocate leaving as soon as the work is done, and never stay a minute longer. Overtime work also gets overtime pay. In the employment environment, the Zhao family is considered a golden bowl in the eyes of many people."
On this point, Zhao Fengzhuo thought he was doing pretty well, and Ziyi would only do better than him.
"Okay, I'll call Mom. You wash the golden bowls for two days first, and I'll take over your shift when I get back."
Ziyi decisively hung up the phone with the narcissistic Zhao Fengzhuo.
Ziyu was busy reconciling accounts at the moment, and was a little surprised to receive Ziyi's call. "Huh? Going to the film city again?"
Posture: ???
"Mom, why do you and Dad always say the same thing?" How often does she go to the film and television city?
Haven't been there in August yet.
"It's because the same bed doesn't allow two different people to sleep together," Ziyu joked. "Your dad and I said something different, so you should think carefully about whether you want to be with your dad or your mom."
Ziyi: ...
"Okay, okay, I'll just call you and tell you not to invite me to dinner anytime soon. I'll tell you when I get back."
"Okay, you're going to the film and television city to see Xiao Qin, right? Remember to make him a few more cups of zero-calorie milk tea. We have a new product, and I'll send you the recipe later."
Ziyu hung up the phone after she finished speaking.
Posture: ???
She couldn't help but press the voice button: "Mom, how do you know Xiao Qin? Do you know who Xiao Qin is? Why do you keep calling her Xiao Qin?"
"I know, how could I not know?" Ziyu's voice reply surprised Ziyi. "When we first opened a milk tea shop in Longxing, I took you to her shop to buy things. When you were little, you were so lecherous that you grabbed little girls and kissed them, rubbing your saliva and snot all over their faces. Xiao Qin likes to be clean, but you made her cry. She wiped your nose while crying, saying that it's not that I can't kiss you, but you have to wipe it clean before you can kiss her."
Posture: ????
Is there such a ridiculous thing??? Why is she a slug?
"I knew Xiao Qin's mother, but as we opened more and more branches, we were too busy and our relationship became distant. I have all her contact information." Although later on, our relationship was basically just a casual one, listed in the circle of friends.
Ziyu sighed from the phone. "Their family is a mess. Sister Shi, oh, that's Xiao Qin's mother. The husband she found has a bad temper. If guests come and they can't reach an agreement over a few words, he'll hit them with his fists. Their family relies entirely on Sister Shi to support them, and it's the same later. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have had to do this... Any help is appreciated."
When Ziyu saw the circle of friends, it was the news that Qin Yuhuan had posted about his mother's death.
Ziyu also transferred money to Qin Yuhuan's mother's account as a token of her gratitude, but it was eventually returned by Qin Yuhuan.
"Mom, I feel like I'm the only one in the world who doesn't know Qin Yuhuan." Ziyi felt a headache. She turned around to ask Qin Yuhuan if she still remembered her childhood. "How old was I then? It was when I made little Qin cry."
"About six or seven years old. I heard that Xiao Qin was just brought back from the countryside and he looks forward to going to school every day. He's the exact opposite of you. You don't want to go to school at all."
Zi Yu recalled that she initially thought that since both she and Zhao Fengzhuo were from 985 universities, the family would suffer. She even thought of a way to shift the blame to Zhao Fengzhuo.
As it turned out, even though Ziyi didn't like going to school, she could still listen to what was being taught when she sat in the classroom.
Ziyu was originally busy, but her daughter didn't drive the car, so she asked the driver to drive for her. She sat in the back seat and called her to listen to her stories.
Ziyu: ...
"You said that I went to Longxing many times before, so why didn't I meet Xiao Qin?" Ziyi still finds it incredible.
She and Qin Yuhuan were obviously very close in every way, but in the past twenty-five years, the three words Qin Yuhuan had never appeared in her world.
"Because you went to Longxing just to put your schoolbag away, and then went to wander around the mall with Xiao Shen, the game city, and the children's center. Xiao Qin doesn't go to the mall very often. When I occasionally see her, she just moves a small stool to sit quietly in the corner reading or doing homework, and she doesn't even say much."
One is away from home and the other is a stay-at-home, it would be strange for them to meet.
"As for me knowing Xiao Qin, didn't you say that yourself? You said there's an old classmate who's also in the entertainment industry, and whose family runs a grocery store on the basement floor of Longxing. Who else could it be but Xiao Qin? Her family owns the largest grocery store in Longxing." Ziyu rolled her eyes. "You're such a heartless playboy. You're 100% like your dad."
Ziyi: ...But you shouldn't take advantage of any opportunity to shift the blame.
"As for Xiao Qin's father, I heard from Sister Shi that he had been ill since childhood, perhaps with polio or something. His right arm was left with sequelae, now the size of a child's hand. He'd always tucked it into his clothes, and he had some low self-esteem. Then he got into a car accident. He used to be quite smart, but after the accident his reactions became slow, and he couldn't speak clearly. Xiao Qin's brothers are the same way. They had encephalitis as a child, and their brains aren't very sharp either."
Ziyu's understanding of Qin Yuhuan's family was beyond Ziyi's imagination. However, when the mall was slow, the bosses and their wives would occasionally get together to chat about family matters. Ziyu had talked a lot with them in the early years of her business.
But what Ziyu knew was only superficial, and she was not very clear about the more detailed aspects.
After all, no one would reveal the true situation at home. Even when Ziyi and Qin Yuhuan were together as children, there was only one time when Ziyi had a cold and her nose was running all day long. This kiss left a psychological trauma on Ziyi.
It’s not that Yingzi loves to kiss girls, but how can Yingzi’s daughter be a dirty snotty girl.
Even after getting off the bus and asking the driver to take the train back, Ziyi was still immersed in incredible emotions.
When he saw Qin Yuhuan, the first thing he said was, "Qin Yuhuan, do you remember when I kissed you and made you cry when we were little?"
Why did Qin Yuhuan have such a good personality when he was a child?
If someone smeared her face with snot and saliva, she would beat that person so hard that he wouldn't even recognize his parents.
Qin Yuhuan:...?
