Lu Xing smiled and said, "Xiao Wu, your uncle wants to mentor you."
"Yes, yes, that's exactly what I mean. Education should start from a young age," Zhao Haozheng quickly nodded. Everyone laughed.
The Zhao family all left that night, and Wang Xinyi invited Zhang Hongmei and her three children to visit the Zhao family the next day.
"I'm sorry, Great-Auntie, we're going to play with my brother tomorrow," Xiao Liu quickly said.
"Okay, you guys go play with your brother, I can go by myself."
Wang Xinyi and Zhao Tiancheng nodded with smiles. "Okay, I'll cook you something delicious tomorrow."
After seeing the Zhao family off, Daniel drove Victoria home, since they were getting married soon and the bride's side had a lot to prepare.
Carlos originally wanted to discuss company matters with Zhang Hongmei again, but what he really wanted was to spend more time with the woman he liked.
"Carlos, I need to rest. Maybe tomorrow morning."
Zhang Hongmei returned to her bedroom and learned that Zhang Shouyi had written her a letter. She took it out to read it, but there was nothing special about it, just some words of concern for her.
I wrote a few words and lay down to rest in bed, though I was still a bit tired. I gave my family a glass of spring water, drank it myself, and then closed my eyes, forcing myself to sleep.
The next day, after breakfast, Daniel set off with Xiao Wu and the other two.
Looking at his three excited children, Carlos smiled. Anne's childhood was too distant, and he hadn't been involved much in Daniel's upbringing, but he knew that both children matured far too early and were never truly lively.
Looking at Xiao Wu and the other two, so full of energy, I felt that this is what teenagers should be like, not Daniel who is so mature and composed.
Since it was still early, Zhang Hongmei and the McCann father and son went into the study and discussed many things about future arrangements, since there were some things that couldn't be said in front of Wyatt.
It wasn't until nine o'clock that Carlos drove Zhang Hongmei to the Zhao family's house.
"You really don't need to, just let the driver show us the way."
"It's okay, I just wanted to spend more time with you."
Zhang Hongmei was speechless. She knew that Carlos was interested in her, but she couldn't reciprocate, so she changed the subject.
It took about half an hour to reach the Zhao family's door.
"Thanks, you can go to work now. I'll be here all day."
Carlos smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Zhao Tiancheng and Wang Xinyi came out to greet them. Zhao Haozheng had gone to the company by himself today, while Lu Xing stayed home waiting for Zhang Hongmei.
There are many things I need to report to Zhang Hongmei.
No one disturbed them all morning.
"Lu Xing, this is very good. Thank you for your hard work over the years."
Lu Xing smiled and said, "Madam, this is what I should do. The commander trained me to serve you. I am already very satisfied. I can live a normal life, have a family, and have children."
I should be thanking you. You gave me this opportunity.
"I also want to thank you. You two have worked very hard."
"Hehe, don't listen to Zhao Haozheng always saying that, that's just his personality."
I know him. He's very content now. If you hadn't given him the opportunity, he would probably still be working at the textile factory.
"Hehe, that's different. Zhao Hao is indeed capable, and besides, I believe in him."
Zhang Hongmei glanced at the time and realized it was already midnight. The two went downstairs, and Zhao Tiancheng, who was sitting in the living room, hurriedly told Wang Xinyi that the dishes could be served.
"Uncle Zhao, I'm sorry. I forgot the time."
Zhao Tiancheng waved his hand. "It's normal, Hongmei, we don't need to be so formal."
Zhang Hongmei smiled and nodded, "I'm not unfamiliar with it."
Gao Xueqing sat to the side, smiling.
"Xueqing, are you getting used to life here?"
"Yes, Madam, I'm fine. My mother is so good to me; I've never been treated this well since I can remember. My sister-in-law is even more loving and caring towards me."
My family has always respected me, so, madam, thank you. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to be happy like this.
Zhang Hongmei smiled and nodded, "It's good that you think that way. That's what contentment and happiness mean."
Gao Xueqing was too young, and he wasn't familiar with the girl, so they didn't have much to say to each other.
Lunch was very lavish. Wang Xinyi cooked all her own specialties, without using any maids; she did it all herself, with Lu Xing assisting by serving the dishes.
Gao Xueqing and Zhang Hongmei wanted to help, but were refused, so the two returned to the living room to chat with Zhao Tiancheng.
After dinner, Zhao Tiancheng went back to rest, while the four women sat in the living room chatting. They were talking about everyday things.
Gao Xueqing was taken aback. So this was what the madam was like? Her gratitude towards the madam grew even stronger. Otherwise, how could she have such a life? Who knows what might have happened to her?
"Aunt Wang, now that Ningning is married, aren't you and Uncle Zhao going back?"
Wang Xinyi smiled and shook her head, "We've discussed this. The children wouldn't feel comfortable if we went back. Let's stay. We might never be able to go back again until we die."
Zhang Hongmei didn't know what to say, after all, what Wang Xinyi said was true.
"Hongmei, how are you doing these days?"
"Hehe, that's great. All four daughters-in-law are pregnant. I went straight home after Daniel's wedding. Lijun and the others will probably give birth in July. I'm worried about them."
"You're pregnant?" Wang Xinyi was pleasantly surprised.
"Yes, she's pregnant, and Yaozu's wife is having twins."
"Hehe, you're different from everyone else. You gave birth to quadruplets, and all four sons got married together. Now you can have five successors."
Red Plum, your life is truly enviable.
Zhang Hongmei nodded with a smile, "Yes, my life is indeed enviable; I've encountered all the good things in life."
"Madam, how is the old chief?" Lu Xing couldn't help but ask.
"Grandpa is in good health and is looking forward to Xiao Wu and his wife's wedding. He wants to see their child."
Lu Xing smiled; the old commander was like a second parent to him. He had always avoided the fact that the old man was getting old. Every year, the New Year's gifts he received were various nutritional supplements from here, hoping that the old man could live a long and healthy life.
"Hongmei, Sister Huang doesn't know that Zhenye and the others are going to be fathers, does she?"
"I know, I talked to the two elders about it last night. They were both very envious. Daniel is under a lot of pressure."
