I am happy to be a mother in my 80s, but the factory director’s wife is ruined

Chapter 18 Is this the Living King of Hell?

The two sides were in a stalemate, and a voice suddenly sounded, "What's wrong?"

Seeing the person coming, Sang Wenli quickly put on a smile and said, "An'an said she likes the food I cooked and hopes I will come back next time."

Xi Zheng glanced down, taking in An An's confusion and anxiety, and then said to Sang Wenli, "I accept the kindness for An An, but what your sister said makes sense. As a student, you should still focus on your studies." It’s important.”

After saying this, he unexpectedly discovered that for the first time since his marriage, he and Sang Yu wanted to go together.

Sang Wenli thought he was being polite to her, so her smile became a little sweeter, "Brother-in-law, can you give me a ride when you return to the factory next time?"

This is not a difficult task for Xi Zheng, but today he just doesn't want to agree, "It's a rare occasion for you to come here and why don't you talk to your sister for a while?"

Sang Yu who is watching TV: ...What does it have to do with her?

"I also want to spend more time with my sister, but I have been out for such a long time. If I don't go back, my family will be worried." Sang Wenli answered accurately.

"If you're in a hurry, go back first."

Their cadre compound is not too far away from the family compound. To drive, you have to take a detour on the main road, so it is more convenient to walk.

However, Xi Zheng was willing to give it away, and Sang Yu had no problem with it. She wished that Sang Wenli could go on a rocket.

Sang Wenli looked at Xi Zheng happily.

Xi Zheng:......

He had no choice but to call Lin Fang, "Send Miss Sang off."

Sang Wenli was secretly happy in her heart. She followed Lin Fang almost to the door, only to find that Xi Zheng was sitting still. She looked at her from a distance, "Brother-in-law, aren't you coming with us?"

Lin Fang received Xi Zheng's look and immediately understood what he meant, "Sir, you won't be going out until later today."

"..."

I finally waited for the opportunity to be alone, but I just missed it!

Sang Wenli regretted that she didn't speak clearly before speaking. Then she thought about Sang Yu's departure and there was no one to pick her up, so she felt relieved.

If Xi Zheng was so easy to win, then I would have become Mrs. Xi long ago.

"Dad." After Sang Wenli left, An An leaned close to Xi Zheng, with a troubled expression on her face, "An An didn't say anything."

"I know." Xi Zheng patted An An's back gently, "Take the medicine later and then have a good sleep. Dad will accompany you when he comes back from get off work."

Sitting on the same sofa, Xi Zheng and the others looked like a family, but Sang Yu seemed out of place.

She was so quiet that Xi Boyang looked curiously in Sang Yu's direction. She was staring at the TV attentively, as if she was not in the same world as them.

This stepmother seems to be completely different from what he imagined...

Sang Yu, who was used to the camera, naturally knew that someone was looking at her, and she could just look at her. She would not lose a piece of meat.

And she wasn't in the mood to care about any of this.

Sang Yu, who was happy to be married to Xi Zheng two days ago, is now somewhat unable to smile.

Although she doesn't have to worry about food and drink at the moment, her status also gives her a lot of limitations. Xi Zheng, the factory manager, looks impressive, but she only receives a fixed salary. Even if she is given living expenses, it must be used for daily expenses.

Listening to him talking on the phone just now, it seems that the situation in the factory is not optimistic. This means that Xi Zheng has no extra money at all. Now that there are Xi Baiyang and An An, it is even worse. How can there be any spare money to lend to her?
After clearing away the dishes, Aunt Sun took An An and Xi Boyang into the house to rest. Xi Zheng lit a cigarette. When he was about to smoke, he suddenly heard a cough.

He glanced at Sang Yu who was sitting on the sofa, then looked at the cigarette in his hand, and finally could only silently stub out the cigarette.

"Tomorrow is Monday, and I want to take Baiyang to report to school." For a long time, Xi Zheng didn't wait for Sang Yu's answer, so he had to add, "Do you want to go together?"

Only then did Sang Yu realize that the other party was inviting her, and she thought he was just giving a notice. "I'm going to meet a friend tomorrow." In fact, Sang Yu felt that it wasn't that important whether she was going or not. In order to avoid being left in the cold, she still picked up the topic, "The summer vacation is about to begin. Why don't you wait until next semester to register again?"

"It's good to familiarize yourself with the environment in advance, and you can also take the final exam on the way."

"..."

Where is this dad? Is this the living king of hell?
But sympathy is sympathy. Sang Yu, who has experienced thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge, also knows that if she doesn't get involved now, she will be involved in life in the future.

And after going to school, Sang Yu can also worry a lot, "What about An'an?"

"An'an is quite afraid of strangers, so we have to stay at home for a while until she recovers from her injuries before sending her to kindergarten."

It was obvious that Xi Zheng wanted to live a peaceful life.

But when she thought that he would face jail soon, Sang Yu was still a little uneasy.

Although she could choose to stay safe and divorce Xi Zheng, what would the two children do at that time?
After Lin Fang saw Sang Wenli off, he came in and told Xi Zheng, "Sir, the car is ready."

"Ah."

Since Sang Yu had something to do, Xi Zheng didn't force it. He was about to return to the factory when he was suddenly stopped.

"I have something to ask you for help." Sang Yu said, "I met a friend of mine two days ago. She happened to be getting married, and she wanted me to make a list for her, including drinks, betrothal gifts, etc. The more detailed it is. The better.”

Hearing Ye Xiaoping mention the bride price, Sang Yu remembered that she had just gotten married and should not be left empty-handed.

But she searched all over the bedroom and couldn't find where the bride price was. "Do you have a list of gifts and drinks? I can't remember clearly."

Can’t even remember your own betrothal gift?

How much does she care about this marriage?

Xi Zheng frowned and led Sang Yu to the study upstairs with a cold face.

He took out a few lists from the drawer and said, "They're all here."

"Thank you."

The mountains will fall, and everyone will run away. Of course, Sang Yu can't be stupid enough to only rely on Xi Zheng for her life. She must save enough capital in a limited time to resist the arrangement of fate.

Before that, Sang Yu had to see how many chips she had in her hand...

The next second she was dumbfounded.

Xi Zheng bought a TV, a bicycle, a watch, and a sewing machine, but he just didn’t have the cash!
Although these are not cheap, what Sang Yu lacks most now is money!

Sang Yu twitched her forehead. It seemed that starting a business with betrothal gifts was not feasible. After all, she couldn't sell the TV set.

...But TVs and bicycles are too conspicuous to be sold, so watches can be exchanged for some money, right?
Where is her watch?

Sang Yu didn't give up. After Xi Zheng left, she went to search the house again, but still found nothing.

She found Aunt Sun and said, "I have a watch, do you know?"

According to the character of the original owner, if the watch was given to her, she would definitely wear it to show off.

"Yes, I saw my wife wearing it before." Aunt Sun recalled.

"I don't know where I put it, but I suddenly couldn't find it in the past two days."

"The watch is missing?" Seeing her nod, Aunt Sun thought for a few seconds, "Didn't you still wear it at work some time ago? Did you leave it in the factory?"
