Pei Yang pushed the door open and saw her sitting on the bed rubbing her arms. He stepped forward to help her rub her arms with concern, and said gently and flatteringly: "Thank you for your hard work last night."

Shen Mingzhu glared at him with a red face, and the next second the sore and swollen pain made her moan involuntarily.

Pei Yang stopped and went outside to get the medicinal wine.

Shen Mingzhu didn't want to fill the new house with the smell of medicinal wine, so she put on her shoes and went outside with him.

As Pei Ziheng left the room, he smelled a strong smell of medicinal wine, and his face couldn't help but frown.

When he came to Shen Mingzhu and smelled the medicinal wine coming from her, his face frowned even more.

"Mom, are you hurt?"

Shen Mingzhu was surprised and pleased by Pei Ziheng's sharpness.

"I'm fine, I just twisted my hand, it will be fine after rubbing it with medicinal wine."

While speaking, Shen Mingzhu subconsciously raised her hand to rub her son's head, but when her hand was raised one-third of the way, she retracted it and used the other hand instead.

Most adults would not be able to detect such subtle movements, but Pei Ziheng observed them keenly.

Damn dad, he actually got mom injured.

"Hurry up and wash your face and eat. After that, I'll send you to school."

Pei Yang came out of the kitchen with breakfast, and when he saw Pei Ziheng in the living room, he began to urge him. However, Pei Ziheng glared at him as soon as he finished speaking.

Seeing his son angrily go into the bathroom, Pei Yang looked puzzled, "What's wrong with him?"

Shen Mingzhu shrugged, "Maybe you think you're too long-winded."

Pei Yang: “…”

…

After breakfast, Pei Yang sent Pei Ziheng out to school, and Shen Mingzhu returned to her room to count the gifts she had received yesterday.

Before the wedding, Shen Mingzhu arranged her work for the next two days in advance and gave herself two days of wedding leave, so she didn't have to go to work today.

After counting the gift money, Shen Mingzhu took out the gift book and checked the account. Finding no discrepancies, she took out one third and put it in the safe for daily expenses, and put the rest in her bag, intending to deposit it in the bank.

After changing clothes and going downstairs, I just ran into Ma Xiangu coming out of Building No. 4 when I reached Building No. 4.

Seeing her, Ma Xiangu grinned and said, "It's you again. Tsk tsk, you're still a virgin."

There were two people from the family compound following behind Ma Xiangu. They seemed to be the sponsors who invited Ma Xiangu to perform the ritual.

Hearing this, everyone looked at Shen Mingzhu with gossipy eyes.

Shen Mingzhu thought to herself that Fairy Ma was quite capable, so she walked away without paying any attention.

As soon as she left, the people from the two family compounds immediately surrounded Ma Xiangu and whispered to each other.

…

After depositing the money and walking out of the bank, Shen Mingzhu subconsciously went to the food factory.

Although she didn't have to go to work today, she still wanted to go and take a look.

Du Juan and Shen Hongmei rode their bikes to do business early in the morning. The workers were busy with production in an orderly manner. After inspecting the situation in the factory, Shen Mingzhu prepared to go home with her bag in her arms.

It is late autumn now. The sidewalks are covered with withered yellow leaves. The warm sunshine and breeze brush across my face, bringing an indescribable sense of tranquility and comfort.

Shen Mingzhu stepped on the fallen leaves, feeling an indescribable joy in her heart.

She seems to have adapted and likes it here.

Love this city, love the people here, and enjoy everything that belongs to her.

If she were given two options now, going back forty years or staying here, she thought she would choose the latter without hesitation.

…

When Shen Mingzhu was still thirty or forty meters away from the family compound, she saw a beige Bentley sedan parked on the side of the road.

She walked forward and bent down. There was only the driver in the car.

"good."

As soon as I entered the gate of the family compound, I saw Zhong Qing chatting and laughing with a few aunties and ladies in the compound.

Shen Mingzhu walked over.

As soon as he saw her coming back, Zhong Qing immediately took her arm affectionately, "You're back?"

Without waiting for Shen Mingzhu to respond, Zhong Qing smiled and said, "I just told the ladies that I asked Yan Yi to drive you home last time. I didn't expect that you would be gossiped about. I feel really bad about it."

After that, he turned to the aunties and said, "I would like to ask all the aunties to help clarify the matter for Mingzhu. She is my best friend, and I cannot let her bear an unwarranted stigma."

"Yan Yi and I will have our engagement party at the end of the month. You are all welcome to attend then."

Several aunties and ladies nodded in unison, flattered.

Whether it was her looks or her dress style, Zhong Qing was obviously a rich lady. She also had a car. Such an important person was not something they could normally come into contact with.

After Zhong Qing took Shen Mingzhu's arm and left, several people immediately started a heated discussion.

…

Shen Mingzhu took Zhong Qing back home.

Pei Yang was also at home. When he saw Zhong Qing coming, he greeted her and then took his keys and money to go out to buy groceries.

While Zhong Qing was looking around the living room, she said to Shen Mingzhu, "Your husband is a very nice man, very considerate, and very graceful and well-educated."

Shen Mingzhu smiled and asked her what she wanted to drink.

Zhong Qing took her hand and said in a coquettish voice, "Are you still angry with me? Please forgive me once, okay?"

In fact, downstairs, when she saw Zhong Qing trying her best to clear her reputation, she had already calmed down.

But there was one thing she had to ask, "Qingqing, why did you help me in the first place?"

Zhong Qing is such a smart person, "You want to know if it was Yan Yi's idea that I help you with the loan?"

Shen Mingzhu agreed.

"No, he still doesn't know that you applied for a loan."

"When I first met you, I was on a blind date with Yan Yi. It's undeniable that I paid attention to you because of him. In fact, helping you was just a matter of convenience. I didn't think too much about it. It's like when you meet someone in need on the street, you help the other person. It may be out of kindness, or you may be in a good mood that day. You help without any reason, and you don't need the other person to return the favor."

"Later, when I learned about the purpose of your loan, I admired you, respected you, and envied you. You are like a blade of grass that I picked up accidentally. I want to watch you grow, bloom, and bear beautiful fruits."

"Can you understand how I feel?"

Shen Mingzhu groaned: "You want to raise me?"

Zhong Qing was stunned by her words, then smiled with eyes curved, "Then are you willing?"

"First V me 100 million to see my strength."

"What 100 million?"

"It's okay, just kidding. Sit down. What do you want to drink? But I only have tea and malted milk at home."

Zhong Qing was amused and suddenly hugged her, saying softly in her ear: "Mingzhu, you are so funny."

Shen Mingzhu pulled down her arm and pushed her away, "Just talk, don't touch me."

Zhong Qing pursed her lips and smiled obediently, "I'll drink whatever you give me."

Shen Mingzhu nodded and went to the kitchen with the tea can.

Zhong Qing thought she was going to make tea, so she sat down on the sofa.

After sitting for a long time, Shen Mingzhu did not come out of the kitchen. Instead, she smelled a burnt odor. Zhong Qing got up curiously and went into the kitchen.

"What are you doing?"
