"Aunt?"
Wen Qian sneered as if she heard a joke: "I'm more curious about how my sister-in-law and her brother-in-law formed a new family. Could it be that my mother-in-law just died and her biological sister came into the house before her body was cold?"
In fact, Zhou Shilin rarely mentioned family matters.
But just based on his attitude towards the current Mrs. Zhou, you can guess that this Mrs. Zhou and her cheap father-in-law are definitely not innocent. Most people cannot do such a thing when a sister-in-law marries her brother-in-law.
Wen Qian spoke freely.
Just tear off the fig leaf of the Zhou family.
Meng Weiyi could only be glad that Mrs. Xu, the superior Mrs. Zhou, was not here, otherwise she would have collapsed on the spot. She knew that Zhou Shilin didn't like her aunt, so she stopped continuing this topic.
"As juniors, we shouldn't judge too much about the matters of our elders."
"By the way, Brother Shi An has been transferred to Shishi. Let's have a casual meal together another day. Qianqian, you haven't met yet. He is a very easy-going person. You will definitely like him when you meet him."
"like?"
Wen Qian put away the smile on her face: "Why should I like a stranger? I only like my family Ah Shi."
As she said that, she grabbed Zhou Shilin's arm and shook it.
"Ah Shi, do you think so?"
Zhou Shilin's expressionless face flashed with tenderness, and he hummed, his voice full of determination.
Meng Weiyi saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart.
Just as she was about to speak, Wen Qian asked with a smile, "Who does Sister Meng like? It can't be Brother Shi An in your mouth, right?"
"How could that happen?"
Meng Weiyi couldn't help but lowered her eyes and forced out a low smile: "I only have Shi Xiao in my heart."
In fact, Zhou Shian is not bad either.
But his mother was too strong and scheming, so being her daughter-in-law would have to go through a lot of hardships. If she had to choose between the Zhou family, she would definitely choose Zhou Shilin. After all, the Zhou family's status in the capital was unparalleled.
Therefore, she wanted to create opportunities to get along with Zhou Shilin.
"I'll treat you to dinner."
"It's been so long since we've been here and we still haven't had a good gathering."
Just when Zhou Shilin was about to refuse, Wen Qian pinched his arm, then raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned, her voice wilting: "Let's try another day. We made it too late last night and I'm a little tired."
Meng Weiyi: "..."
Even if he is not married, he still knows what it means to make it too late. How can Wen Qian have the nerve to say it out loud? And Zhou Shilin, who has always been well-behaved, actually allows Wen Qian to act recklessly?
She was so angry that her heart was blocked.
I don't want to stay any longer.
"Okay, let's make an appointment another day."
"Then let's go first."
Wen Qian ignored Meng Weiyi's ugly face, jumped onto the back seat of the bicycle lightly, put her arms around Zhou Shilin's strong and thin waist, and waved goodbye with a smile.
The crooked look on his eyebrows is particularly irritating.
It wasn't until the two figures disappeared at the end of the road that Meng Weiyi slowly exhaled a breath and stood there for a while. Instead of returning to her unit, she went to a tube building and stayed there for more than ten minutes before leaving.
This way.
Shen Xuening and the other three also arrived home.
After moving out of the family home, Shen Shaowen rented a room in a small courtyard, which was about 20 square meters. There was no kitchen, so he had to set up an open-air stove under the eaves to cook. The toilet was also an aqua toilet, which could be used as soon as he entered the courtyard. Smell something bad.
Rao is so.
Betrothal gifts, furniture, and odds and ends also consumed more than half of his savings. Especially after changing jobs, his salary dropped sharply, and he became even more reluctant to spend the money he got.
Life goes by fast and hard, and everything is stretched thin.
Seeing that Shen Xuening and his wife came to eat together again, I felt unhappy. During the meal, I deliberately sighed and cried. Shen Xuening was also a stingy person, picking up her own food and pretending not to hear.
Banya also remained silent.
His money didn't come from strong winds.
Finally, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Shen Shaowen turned his attention to Xu Mianmian and suggested that she let her follow Wen Qian's example of setting up a stall.
"Wen Qian is not selling stockings, you are selling them too."
Xu Mianmian paused with her hand holding the chopsticks and whispered: "Isn't this bad? I'm stupid, so I can't compare to Wen Qian who is as eloquent."
This is true.
Shen Shaowen sighed, his daughter-in-law was good at everything, but she didn't like to talk. She was a boring gourd who couldn't kick a fart with three legs. She might as well sell sweet potatoes as selling stockings.
However, Shen Xuening's eyes lit up.
"Why don't we sell lunch boxes? My sister-in-law's cooking is delicious. With her good cooking skills, no one will be confused after eating."
Banya also nodded in agreement.
"I think it's okay. With me protecting you, no one will dare to cause trouble in my sister-in-law's stall."
Once the three of them put it together, it was decided.
As for Xu Mianmian’s opinion? It doesn't matter, she is just a money-making tool.
***
On the way back, Wen Qian was also talking about Xu Mianmian.
"Marrying is a woman's second reincarnation. Marrying the right person is very important. Xu Mianmian is a typical example of mistakes. She just got married, and there is no trace of newlywed joy on her face..."
She kept talking in the back seat.
Zhou Shilin occasionally echoed a few words, but most of the time it was Wen Qian who said it. After a while, she suddenly remembered Brother Shi An in Meng Weiyi's mouth. The name sounded familiar.
Zhou Shian?
Could it be the young man I met on the train to Yangcheng?
"Brother Lin."
Wen Qian pressed her face against Zhou Shilin's solid back.
"Is the brother Shi An that Meng Weiyi mentioned just now called Zhou Shi'an? He is tall, thin, elegant, and wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He looks quite bookish."
"how do you know?"
"I met him on the Yangcheng train. He was quite talkative and knew a lot. We had a pretty good chat. He is your aunt's son, right?"
Zhou Shilin said nothing.
After a while, he said faintly: "It's been such a long time, but you remember it clearly."
The tone was sour.
I was jealous when I heard it.
Wen Qian suppressed a smile and said deliberately: "That's for sure. I usually have an unforgettable memory of handsome people..."
She was just mid-sentence.
Zhou Shilin suddenly braked, got off the bicycle, and lifted Wen Qian off with one hand. With a serious tone and a cold look in his eyes, he ordered: "Stand still and repeat what you just said."
Wen Qian blinked innocently.
"What did you say?"
Zhou Shilin took a deep breath, covering up the soreness in his chest, and said loudly, "Tell me you think Zhou Shi'an is handsome."
Wen Qian groaned, stood up obediently, and suddenly raised her voice: "In my heart..."
Halfway through, she deliberately glanced at Zhou Shilin, and saw a flash of nervousness flash across his cold eyes. She felt secretly happy, cleared her throat, and said loudly: "In my heart, Zhou Shilin is the most handsome. No one can compare to him, he is the most handsome man in the universe!"
Zhou Shilin didn't expect Wen Qian to say this.
A passerby happened to pass by and looked at the two of them as if they were fools. He hurriedly covered her mouth, fearing that this annoying little mouth would say something shocking again.
Wen Qian doesn't care.
She took Zhou Shilin's hand, looked at him with crooked eyebrows, and chuckled: "Be careful, are you satisfied now?"
Looking at her sly smile, Zhou Shilin knew that he had been tricked again.
He snorted softly, picked Wen Qian up again and put her on the car seat. He lowered his voice and said, "I'll take care of you tonight."
