Manager Yu subconsciously persuaded, his tone was respectful and intimate: "If you like this bracelet, I will pick a better one and send it to you in a few days. This green jade bracelet is of average quality and has been tainted with gossip. It is really not suitable to keep it with you."

Zhong Qing smiled lightly, "It's okay, just send it over."

Seeing that she insisted, Manager Yu stopped trying to persuade her.

Although it was a rare opportunity to get a bargain, Shen Mingzhu did not dare to be too aggressive and only chose simple styles and affordable materials.

After coming out of Junlin, Shen Mingzhu wanted to take the bus back by herself, but Zhong Qing insisted on giving her a ride, saying that she wanted to get to know the way so that it would be easier to find her in the future.

In response to this, Shen Mingzhu said: I'd rather be happy.

After getting in the car, seeing Zhong Qing staring at her with a smile, Shen Mingzhu couldn't help but touch her face, "Is there something on my face?"

Zhong Qing nodded, "Mingzhu, you are so funny and smart. I really like you more and more."

Is this a compliment?

Shen Mingzhu pondered for two seconds and politely replied, "Thank you."

Zhong Qing held her arm and said in a friendly tone, "Mingzhu, please come to my engagement party."

Staring at Zhong Qing's smiling face, Shen Mingzhu suddenly had an idea: the other party deliberately approached her to show goodwill, could it be that he wanted to earn gifts and money?

No, you are a socialite who drives a Bentley, do you have to be so aggressive? "I'd better not go, we don't know each other very well..."

While Shen Mingzhu was pulling Zhong Qing's hand away, she was racking her brains to think of an excuse to shirk the responsibility. She saw the smile on Zhong Qing's face disappear visibly, and was replaced by frustration and disappointment.

"I thought we were friends."

Shen Mingzhu looks at the nose with eyes and the heart with nose: falling in love costs money.

"Women from families like ours have never had freedom."

Well, there's some melon to eat? Shen Mingzhu turned her head, her almond eyes sparkling.

"What do you mean?"

She always loves to listen to gossips about wealthy families.

Zhong Qing lived up to her expectations and sighed as she continued, "...I don't like him at all, but I can't refuse my family's arrangement."

Shen Mingzhu could understand it very well. Isn't that how it's played out in TV dramas? "Mingzhu, what about you?"

Shen Mingzhu was a little confused when asked, "What about me?"

Zhong Qing's light brown cat-like pupils showed curiosity, "You and your husband must have a very good relationship, right?"

Seeing Shen Mingzhu fall silent, Zhong Qing looked puzzled, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

Shen Mingzhu sighed and said seriously, "No, I just remembered that I have a husband."

“…”

Zhong Qing was stunned for a few seconds, then she couldn't help laughing so hard that she was shaking with laughter.

The driver in the front seat couldn't help but look at Shen Mingzhu several times through the rearview mirror.

While Zhong Qing was laughing, Shen Mingzhu counted on her fingers and found that there had been no news from that bastard Pei Yang for four months.

After laughing, Zhong Qing gently leaned her head on Shen Mingzhu's shoulder, and looked at her with her beautiful brown eyes, "Mingzhu, you are really interesting. I really want to take you back to my home."

Shen Mingzhu looked at him with a look of "What are you talking about?" "Beauty, your idea is very dangerous."

Zhong Qing smiled, "I was just teasing you."

You better be.

"Mingzhu, come to my engagement party. It's unfortunate to be forced to get engaged to a man I don't like. I'd feel better if I had more friends to accompany me."

You are in a good mood, but I am in a bad mood.

If Zhong Qing had been a little tougher or more domineering, Shen Mingzhu would have been ruthless enough to refuse him.

After getting off the car, Shen Mingzhu watched the Bentley drive away in a cloud of dust and observed a three-second moment of silence for her wallet.

When they entered the factory, the Shen Chaobei brother and other people in the factory all gathered around them. When they learned that the food license had still not been issued, everyone's faces showed disappointment and frustration.

After a whole afternoon of relaxation, Shen Mingzhu had calmed down. She turned around and asked Shen Xiangnan what he wanted to do.

Shen Xiangnan pulled her into the office and hesitated for a long time before explaining his purpose.

Although Shen Xiangnan angrily refuted Yang Lizhen's provocation last time, he kept thinking about it after returning home.

Knowing Shen Xiangnan's depression and entanglement, Shen Mingzhu looked at him calmly and asked, "Why do you want to come to the food factory and work with us?"

Seeing Shen Xiangnan nod, Shen Mingzhu took two sips of tea before speaking calmly, "If you come, I will give you a base salary of 40 yuan, which is 10 yuan higher than other workers. Bonuses and other things depend on performance. If the performance is good, you will get more, and if the performance is not good, you will get less. If you are willing, go back and quit now."

Shen Mingzhu was straightforward, but Shen Xiangnan hesitated.

He said he would go back and think about it and then left.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Shen Mingzhu sneered.

Shen Xiangnan is not a bad person and is pragmatic, but he is too indecisive and easily influenced. This kind of person is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything, so she never considered bringing Shen Xiangnan to play with her from the beginning.

If the food factory develops in the future, she can arrange a suitable position for Shen Xiangnan.

But that's all.

In a blink of an eye, it was September 1st, the day Pei Ziheng started school.

After breakfast, Shen Mingzhu sent Pei Ziheng to school just like she did when she went to kindergarten.

Today, Pei Ziheng was wearing a brand new white shirt, khaki shorts, white sneakers, and a square tent cloth backpack on his back. His pretty little snow-white face was stern, and he really looked like a little adult.

After going downstairs, he met many people from the family compound. Seeing Pei Ziheng wearing new clothes and new shoes, they all laughed and joked.

After the mother and son walked over, they gathered in groups of three or four and talked a lot.

"What do you think she was thinking? Sending such a young child to the first grade, isn't she afraid of harming the child?"

"They're not my biological children, so why should I be afraid? I'm still young, and at worst I can have another one later."

"Have you heard? Her factory hasn't started operations yet?"

"It's been so long, and the construction hasn't started yet? A month's rent and workers' wages are a lot of money. Throwing it into the water will make a noise. It's really a waste of money."

"The Pei family is in big trouble this time. The son is not at home, and the daughter-in-law is so restless. If they can't pay back the loan, I'm afraid they will have to mortgage their house."

"Wen Ping is the same. Her brother is not at home, and she doesn't take good care of her sister-in-law. She just lets Shen Mingzhu do this? Isn't she afraid that this family will be broken up?"

"A daughter who is married off is like spilled water. She is living a prosperous life and has no time to care about her parents' affairs."

The school that Pei Ziheng attends is called Heping Primary School.

In terms of strength and fame, this school is at the bottom of the list in Fengcheng. The reason why Shen Mingzhu chose this school is simply because it is only one street away from the food factory.

It would be convenient for her to pick up and drop off Pei Ziheng to and from get off work in the future.

"Mom, from now on I can walk here from the food factory by myself."

Hearing her son's sensible speech, Shen Mingzhu, an old mother, felt very relieved, "Okay, then, I'll let you try to walk alone tomorrow."

After watching Pei Ziheng enter the campus, Shen Mingzhu returned to the food factory.

As soon as I entered the gate, I saw the workers surrounding Shen Chaobei, talking noisily about something.

Shen Mingzhu stood there and listened. It turned out that the factory had not been open for a long time. The workers were worried that the factory would not be able to open and they would not get their wages, so they were clamoring to go home.
