Even though Pei Wenping kicked him for no reason, Chen Yi remained in a good mood with concern on his face.

Pei Wenping quickly calmed down, pushed the other person's hand away, stood up from the ground, and then picked up the motorcycle.

Pei Wenping was checking the motorcycle, while Chen Yi's eyes were fixed on her.

Seeing that she could walk and move and showed no signs of injury, I breathed a sigh of relief.

After simply cleaning the mud off her body, Pei Wenping pushed her motorcycle to find a repair shop. There was a dent on the front of the motorcycle and the rearview mirror was also broken.

Chen Yi picked up the suitcase and accompanied her.

By the time the two arrived at Pei's house, it was already two hours later.

Seeing Chen Yi, Shen Mingzhu was a little surprised, and soon found Pei Wenping covered in mud, and asked with concern: "Sister, what happened?"

"Don't mention it. I fell on the road and the front of the car and the mirror were broken. The repair cost me fifty dollars!"

"The car is broken, so it's broken. As long as no one is hurt, it's fine."

Shen Mingzhu comforted Pei Wenping with a few words, then led her into the bedroom and found her own clean coat for Pei Wenping to change.

While Pei Wenping was changing clothes, Shen Mingzhu talked about Chen Yi, "When did Xiaolu's father come back?"

"Who knows his?"

"Could he have come back specially to celebrate your birthday?"

Shen Mingzhu was joking, but she was quite certain in her heart.

Pei Wenping put the dirty clothes aside, picked up a clean coat and put it on while saying, "I don't care why he came back."

As he spoke, he told Shen Mingzhu about how Aunt Gu had arranged a match for him.

Only then did Shen Mingzhu understand why Pei Wenping was so angry.

Things were not going well at work, and she was inexplicably asked to meet a widower. She also fell on the road. All these things happened at the same time, and she would not be in a good mood either.

Shen Mingzhu comforted her with a few kind words and took out the birthday gift she had prepared for Pei Wenping.

A large LV shopping bag, a classic floral design, which Topek bought from Hong Kong.

Influenced by Shen Mingzhu, Pei Wenping also had some knowledge of these international brands. She also liked this birthday gift very much and her face was full of smiles.

No woman can escape the law of "curing all diseases" of true fragrance.

When the two of them left the room, Pei Yang had already returned and was sitting on the sofa, chatting seriously with Chen Yi.

Shen Mingzhu did not go over to disturb them. She took Pei Wenping to the yard to light a stove and roast lamb legs.

When Chen Yi said he came to talk to Pei Yang about something, it was not an excuse, but he really had something to discuss.

Chen Yi had a good friend who worked on microcomputers, which later became computers.

Recently, this friend's company established a new project to develop a Chinese character paging system, and is in urgent need of funds. Chen Yi wants to ask Pei Yang if he is interested in investing.

Pei Yang himself was making pagers, so he was naturally optimistic about the prospects of the Chinese character paging system.

Without waiting for Chen Yi to finish introducing the project, he immediately agreed to invest and asked, "How much money do you need to invest?"

"It depends on how much you want to invest. The financing target for the entire project is five million."

As if feeling that Pei Yang was taking it too far, Chen Yi advised him to think it over carefully.

"Although this project is good, any investment is risky and the payback period is uncertain. It could be as short as a year and a half or as long as three to five years."

"Okay, I'll discuss this with Mingzhu."

After investing in Zhou Shuhuan's electronics factory without authorization, he promised Shen Mingzhu that he would discuss any investment projects with Shen Mingzhu first.

After learning that the cotton mill was going to be restructured and more than half of the employees would face layoffs, Chen Yi asked Pei Yang, "Tell me, if I help your sister find a job in Shanghai, will she go?"

“It’s hard to say.”

Although the two are divorced, after all, their two children are studying there. Which mother would not want to be with her children?

"But even if I go there, I won't accept the job you asked me for."

"It's OK as long as the person passes by."

It’s not like he can’t afford to support her.

Seeing his thoughts, Pei Yang mocked him without hesitation: "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."

Chen Yi looked down at the tea in his hand and laughed at himself: "Yeah, I deserve it."

Seeing Chen Yi's regretful and frustrated look, Pei Yang couldn't bear to continue stabbing him with the knife.

As it got dark, guests began to arrive.

In addition to Zhao Dafa and his son and Pei Ke and his wife, Shen Mingzhu also called Li Bing, Pei Qiuxia, and Chen Liang and his wife.

Including the children, there were two full tables.

Shen Mingzhu also made her own spicy hot pot base. Eating barbecue and drinking hot pot at the same time is the most comfortable way to enjoy spicy food in winter.

While eating, seeing Shen Hongmei and Zhao Dafa getting along so sweetly, Yi Ling couldn't help but whisper to Shen Mingzhu and Pei Wenping: "Does this count as a blessed woman not entering a house without blessings?"

Shen Mingzhu sneered, "Why not?"

Yi Ling took a sip of osmanthus rice wine and began to tell Shen Mingzhu and Pei Wenping about the Liang family's gossip.

After receiving the court summons, Liang's mother was stunned for only two days, and she even set her sights on the female assistant of the defense lawyer that Liang Ke'an had found for her.

The female assistant just graduated from college this year with a bachelor's degree from the University of Political Science and Law. Her father is a judge and her mother is a doctor.

The key is that there is no object.

Liang's mother was attracted by the assistant's family background, thinking that if she had a judge as her in-law, she would not be afraid of Shen Hongmei suing her. "She now runs to the law firm every day, bringing food and drinks to people. People are afraid of her. She doesn't even go to work when she takes leave. She even went to people's homes. She boasted about herself in front of their parents, and finally they couldn't stand it anymore and kicked her out. Now the law firm won't defend her, and asked her to find someone else. Liang Ke'an is going crazy."

Pei Wenping was incredulous. "Is she sick?"

"She's still very ill. Do you know what she said to me afterwards?"

I have to say, Yi Ling is really good at whetting people's appetite. The women at the table didn't even eat their meat and all pricked up their ears to listen to what she was going to say.

"She asked me how Hongmei and Brother Zhao were getting along and whether they could work out. I asked her why she asked that and she said that if Hongmei and Dafa didn't work out, as long as Hongmei was willing to withdraw the lawsuit, she would let Hongmei continue to be with their family's Ke'an."

Even Shen Mingzhu was shocked by Liang's mother's shamelessness.

"She's dreaming, what a joke!" Pei Wenping, who had a bad temper, started to curse.

After cursing, Pei Wenping got up and went to the kitchen to scoop porridge.

Eating barbecue and spicy hot pot will inevitably cause getting a sore throat, so Shen Mingzhu prepared a large pot of lily and lotus seed porridge in advance to relieve greasiness and reduce heat.

Pei Wenping entered the kitchen and Yi Ling followed her.

After entering the kitchen, Yi Ling looked behind her and saw that there was no one there, so she moved closer to Pei Wenping.

"Sister-in-law, please forgive my brother. He has always been thinking about you and often calls Chen Liang to ask about your situation. This time it's your birthday, he also asked Chen Liang several days in advance about his plans and rushed back to celebrate your birthday."

Seeing Pei Wenping's cold face and silence, Yi Ling hurriedly said, "I'm not lobbying for Big Brother. I'm just worried that if you guys keep being so stalemated, it will give outsiders an opportunity to take advantage of you." (End of this chapter)
