"Really? I'm so happy. This house is so beautiful!" Zhou Zhiyuan was so excited that he walked around the entire house immediately after entering the door. After shopping, he ran to Cui Shichu and said with excitement, "Mom, You're right, we just threw away our old old wooden sofa. If it were placed here, it would definitely be out of place and it wouldn't match at all."
Cui Shichu said with a smile: "It seems you like our new home very much?"
"Of course I like it!" Zhou Zhiyuan nodded eagerly.
"But if you want to maintain such a good look, you have to keep it clean and tidy, don't you think?" Cui Shichu said calmly.
"Yes!" Zhou Zhiyuan seemed to realize what his mother meant, and he immediately promised, "Mom, don't worry, I will never make the house a mess."
"Not making a mess is just the most basic thing, but cleaning is the most fundamental thing." Cui Shichu said with a sly smile, "My good son, you are definitely willing to contribute to keeping the home beautiful, right? "
Zhou Zhiyuan noticed that her smile seemed a little unkind, but he didn't see what was wrong, so he could only nod hesitantly.
Cui Shichu immediately clapped his hands and said, "That's great, the hygiene of the house depends on you! Sweeping and mopping the floor will be your job from now on, it's settled!"
Zhou Zhiyuan was stunned. He didn't expect his biological mother to be here waiting for him. He tried in vain to struggle: "But...but I have to go to school every day in the future, and I may not have time to go home and clean every day..."
"Why don't you have time? The courses in the university are very free. There is always some free time every week. When you come back, I won't ask you to clean every day. Cleaning two or three times a week is fine, right?" Cui Shichu was not going to let him go.
"My good son, didn't you say that when you go to college, you will be an adult and you will help your mother take on the responsibilities of the family? This is also part of the family responsibilities. Do you also think that doing housework is a natural obligation of the mother, and she should Is mom responsible?" Cui Shichu pretended to be sad and continued,
"Well, you and your sister were still young in the past, so I took over all the work at home. Even though cooking in the summer was so hot that I lost my appetite, and washing vegetables in the winter was so cold that I got frostbite, I never complained. I spent more than 20 yuan doing it. Years ago, am I going to continue to be overwhelmed by these tedious household chores? Will I be relieved until I die?"
"No, no! Mom, I will be responsible for everything in the family from now on! Mom, you have worked hard for decades and should take a good rest. It is my fault and I should not shirk it..." When Zhou Zhiyuan heard Cui Shichu's words, he immediately felt guilty. Unable to do anything more, he quickly said that he would do more housework in the future so as not to overwork his mother.
Cui Shichu shook his head and said: "Mom is not such an unreasonable person. You still have to go to school and you can't waste time on housework. So I just ask you to clean the house two or three times a week and help mom. The rest My mother can do all the housework. After a while, when our family’s finances improve, we can hire a nanny. This would be the most suitable.”
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiyuan immediately said: "Then I will study hard and make sure my family can afford a nanny after graduation."
When Cui Shichu saw him saying this, she didn't discourage him. It was good to have motivation and goals, but she didn't plan to wait until he graduated before hiring a nanny. After all, there were still four years left, and she couldn't wait any longer.
When she was in her hometown, it was not appropriate to hire a nanny because she was surrounded by people who knew everything about her and her bun selling situation needed to be kept secret. She could only do housework by herself. But now that she is in the capital, she knows no one around her. They didn't know the situation of their family, and Cui Shichu didn't plan to sell steamed buns, so it was normal to hire a nanny.
A month later, the results of the college entrance examination came out. Zhou Zhiyuan did really well in the college entrance examination. He performed exceptionally well in the college entrance examination this time and did better than usual. He actually entered the top 100 in the province. It can be said that except for the top two He had no choice but to choose any other university in the capital.
After asking his class teacher, he went to various universities to check it out in person, and finally applied for the Law Department of the University of Political Science and Law.
Cui Shichu was not hesitant about his choice. After all, this was his own life, and he should choose his favorite major.
It didn't take long for Zhou Zhiyuan to be admitted to the University of Political Science and Law as he wished. In September, he became an official college student and started his college career.
After Cui Shichu pawned a few antiques in the companion space, he bought many houses and shops, and really became a housekeeper.
She also kept a shop in the residential area where her home was located and opened a small supermarket selling daily necessities. Because of the complete range, high quality and low price, the business was booming.
Cui Shichu didn't do everything herself this time. She hired several employees to do the work. She only had to take care of the accounts and was very leisurely.
When Zhou Zhiyuan went to college for three months, his family could afford a nanny. When Zhou Zhiyuan came back from school and saw the nanny, he was very surprised and asked Cui Shichu: "Mom, is that small shop at home very profitable?" ?We can actually afford a nanny?"
Cui Shichu smiled. If it was based on their real family background, they wouldn't be able to afford it, but didn't she secretly turn on the cheat? Of course you can afford it.
"Of course, we can. The business is going well. Our store has a full range of goods. Even people from other surrounding communities will come to us to buy things." Cui Shichu also took advantage. After all, most supermarkets in this era are opened in the city center with dense traffic. Places rarely open in residential areas.
But such large supermarkets can easily scare ordinary people away, thinking that only rich and distinguished people can afford them, so they don't even dare to go in.
The store opened by Cui Shichu is different. The decoration of her store is very down-to-earth, and she sells things that people use every day. People feel comfortable shopping, and they are naturally willing to come.
Cui Shichu retired early as he wished, became a free salted fish, and lived happily every day. Zhou Zhiyuan's studies were also going smoothly. He was full of ambitions, had a bright future, and an unlimited future.
Unfortunately, Zhou Lizhi is not so happy. She has a child and is full of resentment. She has more friction and quarrels with her family. The family is in a state of turmoil every day. Chen Wenya is even more impatient to stay at home. After get off work every day, He just made an excuse and said he wanted to go out to socialize, but in fact he was going to have a tryst with his lover.
Zhou Lizhi had to go to work and take care of her children. She was exhausted both physically and mentally. She had no energy to pay attention to other things. By the time she found out that Cui Shichu had sold her house and gone to the capital with Zhou Zhiyuan, it was already a few months later.
She was shocked and confused, and didn't understand why such a big change had happened in her life. Then she thought of the house that was sold, and she felt a sense of resentment and resentment in her heart. She resented why Cui Shichu had to sell the house. She lived in Chen's house so crowdedly. There is a house for her to live in.
She thought that her biological mother was really biased and had not considered her daughter at all, but she had forgotten that she had cut off contact with her natal family, so what qualifications did she have to live in her natal family's house?
