Zhou Hui is a selfish, calculating woman who always causes trouble for his mother from time to time.
Liang Xiaowen is not a pushover either. She is cunning at a young age and always tries to win favor in various ways.
If they could take this opportunity to drive the mother and daughter out of the Zhao family and let Shen Hongmei take over, it would be a good thing for Zhao Yun and their family, and it would also relieve his mother's worries.
Shen Mingzhu has always wanted to help Shen Hongmei find her lifelong partner.
"Aunt Hongmei is not only hardworking and capable, but also kind-hearted. Most importantly, she doesn't have any children, so she will treat you well with all her heart."
"Even if she and your Uncle Zhao give you a younger brother in the future, if you pamper him well, he will naturally side with you in his heart instead of thinking about snatching the family property from you."
Zhao Yun seemed to be thinking about something.
the next day.
After school, Zhao Yun, for the first time, did not go home with Pei Ziheng to do homework or play games. Instead, he rode his bike to the food factory.
After entering the factory and parking his bicycle, Zhao Yun found the general office as if he was familiar with the place.
"Aunt Hongmei."
Shen Hongmei looked up and saw Zhao Yun leaning halfway in from the door. She smiled and asked, "Are you here to see Mr. Shen? Mr. Shen went to the restaurant this afternoon and won't be here."
Zhao Yun said, "Oh," and said, "Can I come in?"
Shen Hongmei stood up and walked to the door, explaining to Zhao Yun, who was almost as tall as her, "No, the factory has a rule that no outsiders are allowed to enter the office area. You should go home early."
Zhao Yun looked at her and said, "I don't want to go back."
"What's the matter? Did you have a fight with your family?"
Zhao Yun looked around and said, "I'm a little hungry, Aunt Hongmei, please find me something to eat. I'll leave after I'm full."
Shen Hongmei smiled and said, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
“As long as it’s delicious.”
Shen Hongmei took him to the reception room, made him a cup of soy milk, and took some biscuits, potato chips and other snacks from the snack cabinet.
"Eat, and go home when you're full. I'm going back to the office first."
"Um."
After Shen Hongmei left the reception room, Zhao Yun picked up the soy milk and took two sips, then opened a bag of potato chips and started eating them.
After eating and drinking, Zhao Yun took out his homework.
"Aunt Hongmei."
Seeing Zhao Yun coming to her again, Shen Hongmei was surprised but not angry or impatient.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know how to do this question, can you explain it to me?"
Shen Hongmei took the homework book, glanced at it, then checked the time on her watch, and agreed, "Let's go and meet the guest in the room."
When she arrived at the reception room, Shen Hongmei saw the test paper on the coffee table and glanced at it.
"No wonder you don't want to go back. Are you afraid of getting beaten by your dad when you get home?"
Zhao Yun had a very strange feeling in his heart.
He was clearly being teased, but he inexplicably felt very close to it.
"This time it was an accident. The questions just happened to be in my blind spot."
Shen Hongmei looked at him and said, "Boss Shen once said that only the weak find excuses, while the strong find ways. Constantly improving yourself is the way out."
Zhao Yun placed the test paper in front of her and said with a smile, "Aunt Hongmei, please help me improve my score."
Zhao Yun just said it casually, but he didn't expect Shen Hongmei to actually pick up the pen to help him explain the wrong questions.
Time ticked by, and by the time I finished reviewing all the wrong questions on the test paper, the sun had already set below the horizon.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go home quickly."
While Zhao Yun was packing up his books and stationery, he said to Shen Hongmei, "Let's go together."
"No, I have to work overtime."
After saying that, Shen Hongmei put the empty snack bag on the coffee table into the trash can, and then picked up the cup for making soy milk and went to the bathroom to wash it.
Ziheng is right, Aunt Hongmei is indeed kind-hearted.
On the way home, Zhao Yun's bicycle wheels whirred, and he sometimes bent over, sometimes straightened his back, like a happy little bird flying leisurely through the woods.
When they got home, Zhou Hui and her daughter had already started eating.
"I thought you wouldn't come back for dinner like your dad, so I didn't wait for you."
Under normal circumstances, Zhao Yun would have said a few words to Zhou Hui, but today he was unusually silent because he was in a good mood.
Zhao Yun had eaten a lot of snacks at the food factory before, so he wasn’t very hungry. He just took a few bites and went back to his room on the second floor.
As soon as he left, Liang Xiaowen curled her lips at his back, "He's always giving us the cold shoulder, but we don't owe him anything."
Zhou Hui whispered to her daughter, "Don't forget what I told you yesterday, let's eat."
Liang Xiaowen puffed up her cheeks and complained to the dishes on the table, "Aunt Deng's dishes are getting worse and worse. They're always the same. Mom, when you and Uncle Zhao get married, fire her. Let's find a professional nanny like Liu Yingying's family, who can not only make nutritious recipes, but also fry steaks and make sushi."
Zhou Hui was curious, "How much does her nanny make per month?"
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
"It seems to be one hundred."
Zhou Hui frowned, "That's too expensive."
"What's the big deal if it's a little expensive? Uncle Zhao makes that much money a year."
That's true.
Zhao Dafa is really just like his name, making great fortune. His business is getting more and more prosperous every year and he is making more and more money.
She quit her job at the end of last year and now concentrates on being a stay-at-home wife.
Zhao Dafa gave her 500 yuan per month for household expenses.
Aunt Deng’s salary is 70 yuan, and it’s not impossible to add 30 yuan to hire a better one.
However, Aunt Deng is Zhao Dafa's old nanny who has been employed by him for many years. If he wants to fire her, he has to find a serious fault on her part.
Zhou Hui was secretly calculating in her mind.
…
When Zhao Dafa returned home, he was surprised to see Zhou Hui sitting in the living room.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Zhou Hui turned off the TV and stood up, saying, "I left some soup for you, drink some to help you sober up."
Zhao Dafa nodded. After drinking all night, it was indeed comfortable to have a cup of hot soup to calm down.
While Zhao Dafa was drinking his soup, Zhou Hui brought up the marriage certificate again, "Dafa, what have you thought about what I said yesterday?"
Zhao Dafa was about to answer when he heard his son's voice from the stairs, "Mr. Zhao, come up. I have something to tell you."
"You bastard, you act like you're my father."
Zhao Dafa cursed but felt relieved in his heart.
"Hui, let's talk about this in two days. I'm going to go see Xiaoyun."
After saying that, he stood up with the bowl of soup and walked upstairs.
Zhou Hui felt upset but helpless.
After Zhao Dafa entered the room, Zhao Yun closed and locked the door, then picked up the test paper and handed it to Zhao Dafa.
"Dad, look."
Zhao Dafa glanced at the test score and slapped him on the back of his head. "Last time you scored over 90, but this time you scored less than half. The more you study, the more you fall behind!"
Zhao Yun covered his head and said, "I didn't ask you to check the score. You got the question wrong. Aunt Hongmei has already told me."
Zhao Dafa looked at him and asked, "Why is it that Hongmei explained the problem to you incorrectly? Did you and Ziheng quarrel again?"
"No, I went to see Aunt Hongmei on purpose."
Zhao Dafa didn't pay much attention and continued to drink his soup until he heard his son's next sentence -
"Dad, I think Aunt Hongmei is great. I want her to be my stepmother." (End of this chapter)
