Chapter 0845 The top pick? Not even a part-time worker!
In Luzhou, a corner of the bustling commercial street, Sister Mei's clothing store opened soon. It attracted an endless stream of customers with its novel styles and preferential prices. The store was very lively.
"Hey, have you heard? Our top scorer in the high school entrance examination in Luzhou this year is a pervert. He got full marks in almost every subject!"
"Really or not? Isn't Tsinghua and Peking University able to capture this talent? It's really enviable. Why are other people's children so good?"
"You didn't know this, but that person named He Ziqiu is really someone else's child!
I heard that his biological parents abandoned him when he was a child, but his current stepfather saw him as pitiful and didn't care about the betrothal gift his biological mother defrauded him of, so he took him in, gave him food and drink, and let him go to school."
"Really or not, there are still such good men now? Does this mean that good people are rewarded?"
"Isn't that right? I heard that in order to commend Ziqiu's outstanding performance, various companies from the state and the state gave financial rewards one by one. The total bonuses totaled almost more than 100,000.
Being able to earn so much money while studying is really enviable."
"I heard that He Ziqiu's stepfather's noodle shop has been renamed Zhuangyuan Noodle House. Nowadays, there are so many people eating noodles wherever they go every day. The queues take at least an hour. Everyone wants to get a taste of the culture!"
…
The chatter of these noble ladies inadvertently fell into the ears of the shop owner Anna Mae, who was busy among the customers. Her originally smiling face gradually disappeared.
As night falls, the shop becomes quiet, Anna Mae walks into the bedroom alone, gently opens the dusty photo album, and feels mixed emotions in her heart.
After a while, she was shocked to find that there was no photo of her son in the photo album, and she couldn't help but feel an indescribable sorrow in her heart. Finally, she sat beside the simple log bed in a daze.
That year, Zhao Huaguang married a rich woman and left her and her young children alone and helpless.
During those days, she was hit with blank stares and cynicism like raindrops, but she gritted her teeth and got through it.
Later, she found a job selling cosmetics in a shopping mall. She wanted to live a stable life, but unexpectedly she encountered another bad thing.
Her immediate boss, a married manager, was interested in her and began to pursue her. This matter reached the ears of the manager's wife. Without saying a word, the woman rushed to the store and made a scene, causing her embarrassment.
All lost.
What's even more annoying is that the manager took advantage of his position and fired her.
Her job was gone, and the landlord kicked her out without saying a word as soon as she heard the rumors that she had become a "mistress."
Her family didn't understand her and her friends were alienated. She was completely alone. Frustrated, she decided to leave her hometown and go to Shenzhen.
Before leaving, because she was short of money, she had to take away the betrothal gift given by Li Haichao, planning to return it to him after she got better.
Life in Shenzhen was not easy, and there were constant turmoil on the way to work.
Once, her little sister had a dispute with a client. She tried to break up the dispute with good intentions, but accidentally pushed the client down. The man slipped and hit the back of his head on the steps, and died on the spot.
This push sent her to prison and was sentenced to four years.
In prison, she listened to her sister's advice. In order for her child to live a good life, she made up her mind and wrote a letter to her son, saying that she didn't want him anymore and that she wanted to eliminate the gap between father and son.
Fortunately, she performed well there and was released from prison early. But with a criminal record, it was difficult to find a job, so she had to piece together a few things to open this small shop.
Sometimes, in the dead of night, she would also wonder, if she had not left and lived peacefully with Li Haichao, would she be happy now?
impossible!
Anna Mae immediately shook her head and rejected the idea. A man like Li Haichao was not worthy of her at all. Her misfortune was just a temporary bad luck. One day, she would live a good life through her own efforts and make her mother and sister happy.
Be proud of her.
As for her son, she may not understand her now, but she believes that when she becomes rich and powerful, her son will naturally come back to her.
So what if you study well, you will end up working for a rich person?
What she wants is a life in which she makes her own decisions!
…
In Hejiazhuang, a young man with a somewhat sarcastic appearance was lobbying hard: "Old lady, what a happy event! Your grandson has won the top prize in autumn! This is a matter of honoring our ancestors. Aren't you going to take him back?"
Listen, the rewards given by the state add up to a hundred thousand yuan! One hundred thousand yuan, that means we have to work hard for so many years to save so much money!
I know that Ziqiu was brought up by Li Haichao, and his kindness is as great as a mountain. But we in Hejiazhuang are not stingy people. We don’t need the reward of 100,000 yuan, just think of it as a thank you to Brother Li for his upbringing over the years.
.
The key is, think about it, if we bring Ziqiu back, it will give us Hejiazhuang a lot of face!
Let me tell you, I have some friendship with the principal of a private high school in the city. He said that as long as Ziqiu is willing to go to their school, he will immediately give him a scholarship of 100,000 yuan!
This money is more than enough for your second daughter-in-law’s family to hold weddings, buy a house, and send your children to school!
Thinking further, if Ziqiu is admitted to the most powerful university in the country like Tsinghua University and Peking University, the bonus will be doubled several times, maybe 300,000 or 500,000 yuan! By then, our He family will really prosper.
!
As for me, as his uncle, I can naturally take advantage of him, right?
Going a step further, if Ziqiu graduates from university and becomes an official, and just says a few words to support relatives like us, he will not be able to achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven!
I heard that someone named Qi from afar went up there, and even the dogs in their village became police dogs!
Old lady, you have to think about this carefully!"
"Yes, yes, yes, old lady, this is a great opportunity!" Several old ladies nearby also followed suit, looking expectant.
The old lady, He Mei's mother, and Zi Qiu's grandmother, slowly raised their heads after hearing this, their eyes full of disdain for these people.
She felt like a mirror in her mind, recalling the rumors of those years——
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What did these people say when Zhao Huaguang left? They said that Zhao Huaguang was forced to leave because Anna Mae was not a woman.
When Anna Mae left, what was the news? It was said that she had broken the law and was hiding from debts.
On the day Ziqiu was taken away, it was even more unpleasant. They said that he was He Meisheng's evil son, and now his own father had come to take him home. He also scolded the He family for being full of immoral sluts and that they should be soaked in a pig cage.
Now, hehe!
"Old lady, what are you thinking about?" He Laoer asked anxiously.
In Hejiazhuang, people named He are almost the same family. Going back several generations, they are all descendants of the same ancestor, so everyone is related to each other and pays attention to seniority.
However, nowadays, people are separated from each other, and they don’t care about anyone’s bad affairs. Thinking back to Anna Mae’s incident back then, everyone in the village looked at her with cold eyes, and some often gossiped about her behind her back.
But this time it's different. Look at that boy He Ziqiu. Once he became prosperous, everyone in the village couldn't sit still. They felt so itchy.
The old lady glanced at her second daughter, Helan, who was beside her. Helan said with a smile: "When Ziqiu passed the exam, I was the first one to come to say hello.
Haichao was so generous that he gave us half of the bonus from the state, saying it was Ziqiu's filial piety.
To be honest, both education and living conditions in the city are a hundred times better than those in the countryside.
My mother and I calculated that a person has a face and a tree has a skin. Since Ziqiu was entrusted to the Haichao family in the first place, there must be an end to it, and we cannot occupy both ends.
Besides, we are Ziqiu's second aunt and grandmother, if he really becomes successful, how can he forget about us?"
"Old lady, aren't you making Zi Qiu an obstacle to forgetting your ancestors?" When He Laoer heard this, his face was as angry as pig liver.
The old lady smiled and said: "Do you still remember that when we were compiling the genealogy a few years ago, you were the one who made the decision not to include Ziqiu in it? It's great now, even the ancestors don't recognize him, and he is still thinking about him.
What do ancestors do?”
As soon as the old lady said this, He Laoer was completely stunned.
I remembered that I was the one who made fun of Ziqiu in the past, because I just didn't like Ziqiu, and I thought about how this kid could have such a good life, even if his parents didn't want him, he could still live a prosperous life in the city.
Now that I think about it, I feel so sad.
Mud, is it possible that he still doesn't deserve the honor of watching that brat take off?
grass!
envy, jealousy, hate!
…
At night, the Zhao family compound was quiet.
Zhao Huaguang took a pleasant bath and happily went to his wife's room, planning to have a sweet night.
He is handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a strong build. With the help of his wife's family, he has prospered over the years and has become a popular man in the village.
Not only did the Zhao family live a prosperous life, they also did not forget the people in the village. When recruiting workers in the factory, they gave priority to people from the village. They also provided money to build roads in the village. He also enthusiastically supported the children of any family who could not afford to go to school.
Seriously speaking, Zhao Huaguang is now Mr. Zhao who everyone gives thumbs up to in Zhaojiacun. As for the past events, they were all due to his youth and ignorance. The bigger problem was Anna Mae's.
But for such a famous figure, there is still a knot in his heart - he is now looking forward to having a fat boy with his wife to continue the family line, and then his life will be complete.
What a pity, the couple had been working hard on this matter for several years, but nothing happened, which made him scratch his head anxiously.
"Ouch!" Just as he was thinking, Zhao Huaguang was suddenly kicked to the ground, causing him to rub his butt in pain.
What's going on? He didn't mess with other little girls today.
He looked up and saw his wife standing beside the bed angrily in pajamas, her face darker than the night outside.
"Huh! You came back so late. Are there wild flowers outside that want to get rid of me, a yellow-faced woman, so that you can take your top scholar son back as your family?" Mrs. Zhao said this harshly, but her figure is still so good-looking.
, it’s just the look of displeasure on his face that makes people’s hearts beat when they see it.
When Zhao Huaguang heard this, he quickly apologized and said, "Daughter-in-law, where are you following me? I swear to God, I, Zhao Huaguang, am the only one in my heart like you! My dad also mentioned that matter, and I immediately responded.
Besides, Anna Mae and I have nothing to do with each other for a long time, so it’s still unclear whether He Ziqiu is my biological child. Besides, his surname is He or not Zhao, and he was raised by the Li family. Why should I take him back?
Do you want my family's little fortune? I'm not stupid!
Look, we are a perfect match. In my heart, I only want you. The doctor has said that as long as we work harder, we will have a son sooner or later.
When the time comes, no matter how knowledgeable He Ziqiu is, he will still have to work for our son!"
When Mrs. Zhao heard this, her expression softened a little.
In fact, she also knew in her heart that Zhao Huaguang could not be entirely blamed for the failure to have a child. The main reason was that she was not sensible when she was young and was deceived by those little sisters.
Those guys had so much fun. There were several times when there were several of them at once, and they even took medicine. As a result, they were all stabbed open in the back, and a wine bottle was stuffed into them. Nowadays, sometimes I feel like I can’t even poop.
But isn't that because she is young and ignorant? The key is that she has not done anything bad in her life. She thinks she is still a good girl, so why can't she give birth to a child?
For God's sake, open your eyes!
After pondering for a moment, seeing her husband Zhao Huaguang still kneeling on the floor with a flattering smile on his face, Mrs. Zhao's expression finally softened from her harsh anger.
"Forget it this time." She sighed softly, "Come up and rest."
"Okay, okay!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Huaguang stood up quickly, with a smile on his face, and climbed onto the bed cautiously, for fear of accidentally offending the queen of the family again.
He clearly understands one thing: his wife's family, especially her brother and father, who hold the power of life and death in the Zhao family's business, are the solid backing for him to rise to the upper class and get rid of his past gangster status.
Therefore, every bit of care and obedience to his wife is necessary for him to stabilize his position.
"Mr. Zhao", this title is now Zhao Huaguang's exclusive honor, a status symbol he has earned with countless humble efforts. The gangster in the past is gone forever.
In the dead of night, the two of them were lying on the same bed.
"Don't touch me, I'm really not in the mood tonight." Mrs. Zhao said coldly.
"Haha, I'll just touch it gently and make sure it doesn't move."
After a few breaths.
"What are you doing?" Mrs. Zhao said with a hint of vigilance in her tone.
"I'm just... reluctant, I really don't want to go in." Zhao Huaguang's voice was a little more pleading, like a child seeking forgiveness from an adult.
"you..."
"Just a few times, I promise, just a few times." Zhao Huaguang's voice was almost pleading.
A subtle tension and ambiguity filled the air until everything calmed down.
After three breaths.
"Is it over? You...that last sentence was quite serious." Mrs. Zhao said sarcastically.
"I am indeed a little tired today and in a bad state. I'm sorry."
"hehe."
Mrs. Zhao casually pulled out a few pieces of paper from the bed and wiped them. Full of anger, she turned around and hugged the quilt to sleep. She was tired of hearing these explanations from men.
I'm in a bad state; I've been drinking; I haven't done anything for a long time, and I'm a little nervous; you suddenly lost your breath; you're so beautiful that I can't help it.
