Zhou Shuhuan also taught his son with a serious face, which was rare, "Ziheng's mother is your uncle Pei's wife, she can't be your stepmother."

Zhou Hao argued, "Aunt Lan said that Uncle Pei is dead, and Ziheng's mother is a widow now. If you marry her back, won't she become my stepmother?"

After saying this, he emphasized his idea again, "I just want Ziheng's mother to be my stepmother!"

When the Zhou family heard this, their faces turned unhappy.

They didn't know that Shen Baolan kept saying Pei Yang was dead and Shen Mingzhu was destined to be a widow because she had predicted Pei Yang's death in a dream. They thought Shen Baolan was cursing Pei Yang behind his back.

The Zhou and Pei families have been friends for many years, and Zhou Shuhuan and Pei Yang are close friends. If outsiders knew about this, how would they view the Zhou family? Even Zhou Quanxiong couldn't help but scold Shen Baolan for being vicious and immoral, which was simply outrageous.

Ma Sufen had long been indifferent to Shen Baolan as her daughter-in-law. Now that her son wanted a divorce, she was the first to agree.

So the family decided the matter at the dinner table.

After Shen Baolan was released from the police station, they went to get a divorce.

Zhou Haotian really thought that his wish would come true. After his father divorced his stepmother, he would marry Pei Ziheng's stepmother home to be his new stepmother.

Pei Ziheng's mother is not only good-looking, but also can cook all kinds of delicious food and make money. She treats Pei Ziheng better than her own children and is a good mother praised by everyone in the family compound.

When Zhou Hao thought about the fact that he would soon have such a good stepmother that his friends would envy, he was happier than if he had gotten the toy he wanted most.

After dinner, when Ma Sufen took him downstairs to play, he took advantage of Ma Sufen's inattention and ran towards Building No. 5.

He couldn't wait to show off to Pei Ziheng.

…

Although Shen Mingzhu didn't get along with Shen Baolan, she wouldn't be petty enough to transfer her dissatisfaction to a little kid like Zhou Hao. She wasn't very welcome to Zhou Hao's visit, but she wouldn't drive him away with a cold face either.

On the contrary, Zhou Hao was very warm and polite to her. He kept calling her "Aunt Mingzhu" all the time, with his little eyes shining brightly, just like a puppy trying to please his owner.

Shen Mingzhu didn't care too much. She let Pei Ziheng take Zhou Hao to play in the living room while she was busy with her own things.

"What are you doing in my house?"

Perhaps he was used to it, Zhou Hao didn't care about Pei Ziheng's indifference at all. Instead, he stared at Pei Ziheng's forehead wrapped in gauze with curiosity.

He knew that it was his stepmother's uncle who beat him. That uncle had been arrested by the police and was going to jail.

"Pei Ziheng, my dad is about to divorce my stepmother."

Zhou Hao's tone could not hide his excitement.

Pei Ziheng's face was indifferent, and he obviously didn't care about it.

"When my dad divorces my current stepmother, I will marry your mother as my stepmother!"

Pei Ziheng stopped the Rubik's Cube in his hand, turned his cold but extremely beautiful face, and said without emotion: "Say it again."

Zhou Hao repeated his words fearlessly, "...Anyway, I've told my dad that I want your mom to be my stepmother!"

Pei Ziheng sneered, "Did your father agree to it?"

Zhou Hao thought about it seriously. It seemed that his father did not agree. "He will agree!"

He will keep pestering his father when he gets back. His father loves him so much, he will definitely agree.

Zhou Hao is very confident.

How could Pei Ziheng not see what Zhou Hao was thinking? His dark eyes were filled with anger like a tsunami.

Dreaming about snatching his mother away! Shen Mingzhu finished her own work and saw that it was getting late. She wanted Pei Ziheng to go to bed early to recover from his injuries, so she prepared to send Zhou Hao back. As soon as she went out, she ran into Ma Sufen who came upstairs to pick up Zhou Hao.

Ma Sufen curled her lips at her slender figure and went downstairs with her grandson.

When Pei Ziheng finished his shower and returned to his room, he was surprised to find that his small pillow and quilt were gone.

He turned around and saw his mother standing at the door, waving at him with a smile, "Come to my room tonight."

"Um."

Pei Ziheng appeared calm on the surface, but his mind was spurting bubbles like a bubble machine, and even his walking became clumsy.

Pei Ziheng's head injury needs to be observed for 24 hours. Although there is a high probability that there will be no problem, Shen Mingzhu does not dare to take the risk and does not want to run around in the middle of the night. She simply lets Pei Ziheng sleep with her so that she can take care of him at any time.

Lying on the large and soft bed, Pei Ziheng was thinking crazily in his heart: Mom's bed is so comfortable, fragrant and soft, just like sleeping on a cloud.

After Shen Mingzhu finished her skin care, she turned around and saw her son lying flat on the side of the bed, his little body slightly arched under the thin quilt, like a weak and cute little animal, which made her heart soften.

She climbed onto the bed quietly from the other side, turned off the light, and gently patted her son's soft little chest.

"Good night, son."

"Good night, mother."

Pei Ziheng turned sideways, hugged her arm, and fell into a sweet sleep.

Have a good night.

Shen Mingzhu originally wanted to ask Pei Ziheng for two days off so that he could recover from his injury before going back to school, but Pei Ziheng insisted on going to school, so Shen Mingzhu had to agree to his request.

Before going out, Shen Mingzhu specially brought a box of mooncakes.

When they arrived at school, Shen Mingzhu first sent Pei Ziheng to the classroom door. After watching Pei Ziheng enter the classroom and sit down, she went to the office to find Pei Ziheng's head teacher. She briefly told the teacher about Pei Ziheng's injuries and asked him to take care of Pei Ziheng in the next two days. She also gave the teacher the mooncake.

The head teacher’s surname is Ou, and her name is Ou Liya.

Ou Liya refused to accept it at first, until Shen Mingzhu said that the mooncakes were produced in cooperation with the food factory, then she agreed to accept it.

After Shen Mingzhu left, the other female teachers in the office teased with Ou Lisha, "Is this the mother of Pei Ziheng in your class? She's quite pretty. No wonder her son is so handsome too."

Olya smiled faintly, "Stepmother."

Several female teachers were very surprised. "She looks young and good-looking, but she is actually a stepmother? How can she be so depressed?"

“She married here from the countryside.”

After hearing this, several female teachers suddenly realized what was going on, and their expressions gradually changed from surprise to disdain and contempt.

These days, there is an unbridgeable gap between rural and urban household registration.

For a woman born in the countryside who wants to escape poverty, the best and fastest way is to marry a city man.

These young female teachers looked down on rural women like Shen Mingzhu who relied on marriage to obtain a better material life.

They consider themselves to be women of the new era and advocate freedom of love and marriage.

In their hearts, love is sacred and marriage is pure and should not be tainted by money and interests.

After leaving school, Shen Mingzhu went directly to the Food Administration Bureau.

Even though Liu Yuehua had made the final decision, she still couldn't hide her anxiety until she got the license.
