Chapter 157 We can definitely turn things around!

Just as I was thinking about it, a warm greeting came from outside.

"Aunt Chen, this bucket is heavy. Put it down quickly and let me carry it. Be careful with your waist."

"Hey, Xiao Duan, are you off work?"

"Yeah, not too busy today."

"Sister Sun, your cooking skills are incredible. The aroma makes me hungry."

"Xiao Duan, you have good taste! Wait for Sister Sun to serve you a bowl!"

Duan Hongzhe held a briefcase under his arm and smiled as he walked and greeted the neighbors in the yard. He was wearing a somewhat old Zhongshan suit, which looked very neat, and there was a pen in his chest pocket.

As he greeted people along the way, the atmosphere in the entire compound became more lively.

Aunt Chen's face was wrinkled with laughter. "This little Duan is such a good kid! He is much more considerate than our debt collector!"

Sister Sun also nodded in agreement, "That's right, Xiao Duan is the best in our compound!"

The other sisters-in-law followed suit and expressed their approval.

Xiao Liu, who was squatting on the threshold smoking, couldn't stand it anymore and muttered unconvincedly, "He's just a temporary worker, why are you so arrogant!"

He really couldn't stand that boy named Duan. He had been in their compound for less than a month, but he was already praised to the sky by these ignorant women.

In his opinion, he is just a useless wimp!

Oh, God is so blind that he can even let him marry a beautiful wife!

Xiao Liu thought about the soft waist and gentle smile of the woman in his dream at night, and swallowed hard.

Xiao Liu rolled his eyes in disdain and looked at Duan Hongzhe's back as he walked into the house, but there was a hint of envy in his eyes.

"Brother Hongzhe, you're back!" Wang Pan'er's eyes lit up when she saw the person coming in, and she quickly stepped forward to take the briefcase and coat from Duan Hongzhe's hands.

"Are you hungry? I made some broth today. It will be ready soon."

Wang Pan'er wrung out the towel from the basin and handed it over. After Duan Hongzhe took it, she hurried outside to prepare food.

Duan Hongzhe was holding a towel, and after Wang Paner left, the smile on his face faded a little.

Ever since he and Wang Pan'er were taken to the northwest for labor reform, he realized what a good life he had lived in the Wanyang Brigade.

There, not only did they have to clear wasteland from morning till night, but they also did not have enough food to eat. In addition, the wind and sand were very strong, and sand and stones were often mixed into their food.

At the beginning, he really wanted to kill Wang Pan'er. If it weren't for this woman, how could he have ended up like this.

But he still endured it because he was unwilling to give up. According to Wang Paner, he would be the richest man in China in the future!

Finally, relying on Wang Paner's legendary memory of rebirth and his planning, he finally rescued an important man and returned to Beijing through other people's connections.

But the favor he earned by risking his life was only enough to help him return to Beijing, no more.

After he returned to Beijing, he found that no company would hire someone with a criminal record.

Duan Hongzhe's hands were tightly gripping the towel, and veins on his hands were bulging from the force.

He really didn't understand how he ended up in such a situation...

"Come and have dinner, Brother Hongzhe!" Wang Paner's voice rang out, interrupting Duan Hongzhe's thoughts.

"Coming." Duan Hongzhe regained his composure and responded with a smile.

Besides a pot of watery bone soup, there was only a small dish of pickled cabbage and a plate of cornmeal pancakes on the table.

Wang Paner first served a bowl of bone soup, and then used chopsticks to scrape the meat off the two bones in the pot, put them together in the bowl, and then pushed it in front of Duan Hongzhe.

"Try it now! I've been waiting all afternoon!"

Duan Hongzhe took a sip, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes, but he still smiled and said, "It tastes great! You should try it too!"

"Okay, eat more!" Hearing Duan Hongzhe's praise, Wang Paner smiled and handed him another corn tortilla.

Duan Hongzhe felt the roughness in his throat and had trouble swallowing.

Wang Paner looked at Duan Hongzhe carefully, hesitated for a long time, and still couldn't help but said, "Brother Hongzhe, there is no food at home, why don't you go home tomorrow to check..."

"I still have some money, but not much..."

"I understand." Duan Hongzhe suddenly stopped moving, and it took him a long time to squeeze out the words.

After he returned to Beijing, he went home immediately, but he was unexpectedly turned away.

Only then did he realize that it was true that having a stepmother meant having a stepfather!

It turned out that it was his father's idea to send him to the countryside, and the yard that his stepmother promised him was never transferred to his name.

But it is understandable that between a caring younger son and a resentful older son, it doesn’t seem to be a difficult task to choose between them!

If he hadn't known something about his father's bribery and threatened to report it to the workplace, he probably wouldn't even have been able to get into the house.

But there was no room for him at home anymore, so he had to move out. Moreover, because he was short of money, he had to go home from time to time to ask for money.

Every time his brother's sarcastic voice and stepmother's cold eyes made him feel ashamed.

Seeing Duan Hongzhe suddenly fall silent, Wang Paner felt heartbroken.

It’s all her fault for being useless. That’s why Hongzhe suffered!

When she first arrived in Beijing, she planned to continue making money on the black market, but she was unfamiliar with the place and couldn't find any source of goods.

Moreover, the management in Beijing is much stricter. After she was almost caught by the police once, she never dared to go to the black market again.

However, Duan Hongzhe couldn't find a job at all and could only work as a temporary worker to cover for others. However, the money he earned every month was too little and was not enough for them to live on.

Wang Paner felt as if her heart was being stabbed by needles. How could a man as capable as Brother Hongzhe suffer such injustice?

Wang Pan'er regretted it so much. It was all her fault. Why did she provoke Feng Shanpao? It was she who harmed her lover.

But this is only temporary, they will be able to turn things around soon as long as they can seize that opportunity!

"Pan'er, are you sure about what you said?" Duan Hongzhe looked at Wang Pan'er, not wanting to miss any of her micro-expressions.

"Of course!" Wang Pan'er said confidently, "Grandpa Ning and his son and daughter-in-law will die in the next few days. You just need to help his grandson when he is in trouble, and you will definitely get the fertilizer formula from him!"

"By then, we will be able to turn things around with the help of this fertilizer formula!"

"Once we hand over this formula to the Agricultural Science Institute, we will definitely be able to get a good job!"

Wang Paner's face was flushed and she looked very confident.

The story of Duan Hongzhe making his first fortune with a fertilizer formula provided by Mr. Ning’s grandson was something she heard from villagers when she was beaten so badly in her previous life that she had to hide back home.

In her previous life, Shen Anan was really lucky. She didn't expect that she could get an opportunity by saving anyone.

What a pity, with Wang Paner taking action in this life, Shen Anan will never have this opportunity!
