Chapter 205 I feel like we're about to have a stepmother.



I don't know if he was too excited or if he couldn't believe that things had gone so smoothly.

Her legs buckled and she knocked over the teacup on the table, which, by sheer coincidence, spilled right onto the spot where Zhao Youcai had signed and pressed his fingerprint.

Zhao Youcai watched silently, without any expression, which startled Da Yuanzhong so much that he jumped up and carefully walked over, opening his mouth and blowing on the spot where the signature had been soaked.

Zhao Youcai thought to himself: If it were the Zhao Youcai from before he transmigrated, he would definitely think that the other party was deliberately picking a fight.

Isn't that what the biggest traitor thinks too?

At this moment, the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Youcai was so weak, helpless, and pitiful. He knew all too well that the contract had been soaked in water, especially the one with Zhao Youcai's signature, which absolutely could not have any stains or damage.

"Um... Comrade Zhao, would you be so kind as to sign another contract?"

Zhao Youcai smiled and waved, and just before the light in the other person's eyes was about to go out, he spoke as if it were a redemption.

"Alright, let's write another one then. This time, make sure it doesn't get wet again. Once or twice is fine, but a third or fourth time would be deliberately causing trouble."

The wronged son was overjoyed, and his hands flew across the page as he rewrote the contract.

Zhao Youcai really wanted to tell him that only one sheet was wet, so he should just write on the wet sheet and there was no need to copy it word by word again.

If he makes a few mistakes in copying, I'll have to check it again, which is too much trouble.

"Can't you just write on this one page? After all, paper is also the people's property, so we should use it sparingly."

Zhao Youcai may not have learned other skills, but he certainly mastered the art of using someone else's name to intimidate others and raise a big banner.

After Zhao Youcai's "reminder," the wronged man finally regained some of his senses.

The new contract was finally rewritten, and as soon as Zhao Youcai signed it, the other party quickly put the contract away.

"Then let's set off now, since there's no time like the present."

Zhao Youcai gave him a deep look. "Are you sure you don't need to stay in the hospital for a couple more days?"

After asking that question, even the biggest traitor was stunned.

Yesterday I felt like I wasn't going to live much longer, but today my strength has increased dramatically, and I feel like I could kill a bull with one punch.

Huh?

Are you cured?

At this moment, his eyes were full of admiration as he looked at Zhao Youcai, feeling that Zhao Youcai was a man of great fortune.

You must cultivate a good relationship with this kind of person; who knows, you might just rise to great heights.

At this moment, the idiot's emotional intelligence and IQ both improved dramatically. "Comrade Zhao just got back from his busy schedule and needs to rest at home for a few more days. How about I come and pick you up in a few days so we can travel together?"

Look!

They even used honorifics.

But this suited him just fine, since another distinguished guest who had come from afar had also arrived.

He Xiaojuan, a cool and aloof beauty, the female factory manager of the cannery, and a formidable woman, walked into Zhao Youcai's courtyard with a smile, carrying several large gift boxes.

"Comrade, who are you looking for?"

It's no wonder that Zhao Youcai's daughters-in-law looked so threatened; the other woman was so well-preserved that she looked like she was their peer.

The jealous second son's wife is now starting to wonder which of the Zhao family members brought this woman into the family.

To my utter surprise, the first thing this woman said was—

"I heard that Director Zhao is back, so I came here specifically to pay him a visit. Is that convenient?"

The second son's wife was looking at her strangely, but since she was a guest, she couldn't just leave her in the courtyard.

Besides, since they said they were looking for the factory manager, it's possible that it's actually the factory manager or a representative sent by one of them.

"Comrade, please come with me, I'm going to call my father-in-law out."

"This is troublesome."

The second son's wife served him tea and snacks and then left. Instead of going to find Zhao Youcai immediately, she went to the food factory to find her husband.

"Oh no! I feel like we're about to have a stepmother!"

The second son, Zhao Jianjun, looked bewildered.

"I'm serious, you don't believe me! That woman even came after us. What are young people thinking these days? They're so young, why don't they do something better, like becoming stepmothers to adults like us!"

The second son, Zhao Jianjun, was filled with questions. He really didn't know what was wrong with his wife, who had all sorts of strange and bizarre ideas.

However, he understood one thing clearly: a female guest had come to his house.

"Aren't your eldest sister-in-law, third brother's wife, and fourth brother's wife home? If all else fails, see who you can ask to go back and help you entertain the guests."

After all, it was just a male colleague from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who came, and with Zhao Youcai personally taking care of him, there shouldn't be any major problems.

But now another female guest has arrived, and the family always needs to send a woman as a representative to prevent people from gossiping behind their backs.

It wasn't that I was afraid of affecting other people's reputations, but rather that I was worried about affecting Zhao Youcai's reputation.

After all, Zhao Youcai is a hot commodity right now, and everyone wants a piece of him.

Soon, the second son's wife called on her fourth brother's wife, who was usually quiet but hardworking.

The two went home and first went to Zhao Youcai's house to call him, saying that a female guest had arrived.

Then they chatted with the female guest for a while before getting up together to go to the kitchen to get busy.

Zhao Youcai glanced at He Xiaojuan and became even more certain that what she said during their chance encounter at the train station was directed at him.

Why bother looking for the farm manager? You're really scheming. Why not just say you want to talk to me directly?

"I never expected that Comrade Zhao would own another factory."

Zhao Youcai felt that he had completely seen through her at this moment, and that anyone who believed a single word from this woman would be a fool.

They're all old foxes, why are you trying to play these old tricks with them?

Sure enough, the prettier the woman, the more likely she is to deceive. If he couldn't see through this woman's ulterior motives, he might as well change his name.

Zhao Youcai's motto has always been to remain unchanged in the face of all changes. He wanted to see what kind of conversation she could come up with to get closer to him if he didn't engage.

It has to be said that in addition to his ability, he also has a thick skin to keep his position as factory director.

The other person didn't seem embarrassed at all, and their smile remained perfectly polite.

"If I had known, I would have asked my friends beforehand. If I had known that Comrade Zhao also had a farm, I should have talked to you about cooperation when we met that day."

Now that things have come to this point, it would be going too far for Zhao Youcai not to respond.

"It's quite a coincidence. I never expected that my small farm in the county could have any cooperation with a large cannery across provinces."

What? Nobody in your province raises chickens, ducks, geese, or pigs?

Something's not right. Something's off about him.

He Xiaojuan's smile was almost frozen. In the past, she had always managed to get the other party to back down when she used this trick, so why was Zhao Youcai so stubborn?

Is he not normal? He's getting old, and no matter how well he takes care of himself, he'll eventually reach a point where he can't go on, right?
