Being the mistress of the Shao family is really not easy. It is honor and status, but also shackles and responsibilities. If you are not careful, you will be overwhelmed.
If it weren't for Mrs. Shao's stability in her later years, he would have long given up the position of head of the Shao family.
Even he finds it hard, so why bother dragging the woman he likes into the mud and swamp?
"You're right, Zhiqiu, I've made things difficult for you. Can we still get along like old friends in the future?"
"Yeah, of course."
After receiving her response, Shao Lin showed a satisfied smile on his face.

After Yang Jiayong's divorce, he returned to Zhejiang Province to continue working, while Hu Wenqin, his new wife, stayed with the Yang family to have her baby.
When she first came to the Yang family, Hu Wenqin pretended to be sweet-talking and kind-hearted, which made Yang's mother happy.
After arguing with Yang Jiayong, Hu Wenqin revealed her true colors. Not only did she ask the Yang family to organize a grand wedding for her that was not inferior to when she married Huang Qinghe, but she also wanted four new items and a 200-yuan gift.
The new four big items are televisions, bicycles, electric fans and gold rings.
Yang Jiayong has saved some money in the past few years, but this money is intended to be used to build a new house. If he buys these four major new items, his savings will be almost wiped out.
Yang Jiayong persuaded him nicely, saying that he would owe it first and then make up for it later when he built a new house.
But Hu Wenqin was not that easy to fool, and directly gave Yang Jiayong an ultimatum. If he couldn't see these things within a month, he would return to his parents' home with the baby in his arms.
Yang Jiayong thought that Hu Wenqin had such a big belly and no money, so he didn't take the other party's words to heart, and packed up his luggage and went to Zhejiang Province the next day.
As soon as Yang Jiayong left, Yang's mother and Yang's father were miserable.
Hu Wenqin quarreled with them every day. The two elders were worried about the golden grandson in Hu Wenqin's belly and did not dare to fight back. They had to do everything possible to coax and support Hu Wenqin and prevent her from returning to her parents' home. They lived a miserable life every day.
On this day, Yang's mother was angry with Hu Wenqin at home, and when she went out, she couldn't help but shed tears and complain to others.
"You don't know how difficult this little shrew is to take care of. When I cook dry rice, she thinks I cook it too hard, which makes it hard for her to digest. When I cook porridge, she thinks I cook it too clearly. She says I want to starve her and the food in her belly.
Baby, she has to see meat and fish every day, otherwise she won’t eat, she thinks my cooking is not good, she picks on me all day long, I really have had enough, wait for her stomach to unload, let’s see how I clean it up
she!"
Hearing Mother Yang's cry, several aunts looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with gloating.
In the past, Yang's mother was so blessed that her ex-daughter-in-law took care of her and Yang's father like a nanny. The in-laws would send rice, meat, and oil to the Yang family from time to time. They didn't know how envious they were.
Well, now, I have driven away my virtuous and rich ex-wife and married a new, lazy little shrew. Isn’t this what I deserve?
Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
Within a day, the discord between the Yang family and their new daughter-in-law reached the ears of the Huang family.
After Liu Zhi heard about it, he cooked a large table of delicious dishes that night, which made Yang Xinghua very strange.
"It's just the two of us eating, why did you cook so many dishes?"
"I'm in a happy mood today and want to eat something delicious. Mom, feel free to eat. If you can't finish it, I'll send it to Jianjun and Dad tomorrow."
"What are you so happy about?"
Liu Zhi told everything about Yang's mother being angry with her new daughter-in-law.
After listening, Yang Xinghua was silent for a long time before speaking, "There are so many good dishes, how can we do without wine? Go and get the Wuliangye that you didn't finish last year."
"Hey, mom, please wait."
Liu Zhi immediately happily went to get the wine and cup.

In the capital, Shao Mo first took Huang Qingning to the school to register and go through the accommodation procedures, and then took Huang Qinghe to the previous gynecologist for a check-up.
The test results came out soon. Huang Qinghe suffered from congenital fallopian tube obstruction and needed surgery to clear it.
The medical expenses, surgical expenses and hospitalization expenses totaled almost a thousand dollars, which was exactly the amount Huang Qinghe received from Yang Jiayong.
Although all the money was spent, Huang Qinghe didn't feel distressed at all. Instead, he held Shao Mo's hand with emotion and said, "Fortunately, I'm divorced. Otherwise, the Yang family might not let me go to the hospital to treat this disease until I'm 30."
.”
Shao Mo patted the other party comfortingly, "Sister Qinghe, give up your wealth and avoid disaster. Good days will come for you in the future."
"Momo, I want to go to work as soon as I get out of the hospital."
"Okay, in addition to you, I also hired a cooking sister-in-law. You two usually cook together in the kitchen. After cooking, each of you will send it to five restaurants. Then I will give you a scooter.
It’s just as convenient to travel.”
Huang Qinghe's face showed embarrassment, "Momo, I can't ride a motorcycle."
"It's okay. You can learn it. It's almost like riding a bicycle."
"Well, okay, Momo, thank you."

Almost all the employees of the specialty store are locals from the capital. In order to help Huang Qinghe master the essentials of Beijing cuisine as soon as possible, after Huang Qinghe was discharged from the hospital, Shao Mo specially brought Huang Qinghe to Hua Ao and asked him to learn how to cook Beijing cuisine with Hua Ao.
At the same time, Huang Zhiqiu also went to Lanju to visit Mrs. Shao.
Huang Zhiqiu's gift to Mrs. Shao was a set of bamboo utensils woven by himself, including mats, pillows, fans, baskets, baskets and skips, nearly twenty pieces in total.
Every piece of bambooware is unique and exquisite in terms of craftsmanship, shape, and pattern. It is like a work of art and has obviously been prepared for a long time.
Mrs. Shao praised Huang Zhiqiu's cleverness, but her eyes cast a meaningful glance at her son.
Apparently she misunderstood that this was her son's idea and asked Huang Zhiqiu to use this method to please her.
Shao Lin quickly responded with his eyes: It's not me.
He did say before that he asked Huang Zhiqiu to make a set of bamboo utensils for him, but it was just a casual comment. He did not dare to expect Huang Zhiqiu to make a set of bamboo utensils for him.
Speaking of which, he and Huang Zhiqiu have known each other for so long, but they have never received a gift from Huang Zhiqiu personally.
Thinking about it, Shao Lin couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.
The lunch was sumptuously prepared, with all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, which fully demonstrated the importance Mrs. Shao attached to Huang Zhiqiu.
After dinner, Mrs. Shao invited Huang Zhiqiu to visit her orchid room.
Huang Zhiqiu went happily.
When they arrived at the flower house, Mrs. Shao first took Huang Zhiqiu around, and then asked Huang Zhiqiu to pick two pots of flowers he liked and take them back, but Huang Zhiqiu politely declined.
"Thank you Madam for your kindness. I will return to Anshi tomorrow. Orchids are delicate and it would be a pity if they were injured due to the bumps on the road. It would be better to keep them in Madam's yard."
After hearing her words, Mrs. Shao turned around and looked at her, "Don't you feel tired from traveling back and forth all the time? You are not young anymore, haven't you thought about settling down?"
"Thanks to Momo, every time I come here I take a plane, which is much faster and more convenient than taking a train. My life is quite stable now. I have my own career, and my parents and brothers are well and well. I am very satisfied."
