Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Currently Fake_1

Song Yunuan saw off Chu Zizhou.

She didn’t mention her phone call with Gu Huai’an, pondering over the expression Chu Zizhou had earlier, it seemed he wanted to say something else but then changed his mind at the last moment.

Song Yunuan only thought about it briefly before letting it go. First, she took a bath and after coming out, Old Mrs. Song immediately started to dry her hair, saying that although it was summer, sometimes the summer breeze can be quite peculiar, blowing from somewhere unexpected, making it especially easy to catch a chill.

After drying her off, she looked at her granddaughter with a face full of tender love, thinking that such fair and radiant beauty was unmatched in all the neighboring villages.

Xia Guilan had made noodles.

It was dumplings when boarding the vehicle and noodles when getting off; the first meal after returning home was basically noodles, which not only consisted of hand-pulled noodles but also included meatballs brought by Lian Xiang, coated in flour, golden with a hint of green, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

It had now become a routine.

When it was time, they would finish work, and if there were delicious dishes at home, they would eat together, with Lian Xiang always trying to add more dishes.

Xiao Gang and Xiao Ru had just finished their exams and came back with Song He.

Upon seeing each other, there was a lively hustle and bustle.

Then they sat down together to eat, and Song He excitedly told his family that that morning he had filled out a form to apply for the transition from a private teacher to a public teacher.

The principal said it needed to be approved by the county’s education committee.

Whether it could truly go through was hard to say.

But the principal said to him, "In the past, whenever I came across such cases, I was very cautious, as nobody knew what kind of hitch might happen after submitting the application form. But for you, I can assure you, there will be no complications; everything will proceed according to the normal process."

Once the principal said this, it meant that no one would obstruct or play dirty tricks.

After all, Song He really had the ability.

Although he taught Chinese as a substitute teacher, his level was high.

The commune’s middle school and elementary school were together.

To the south were the elementary classrooms, and to the north were the middle school ones.

Song He could even substitute for middle school teachers, just think about his level!

Wasn’t teaching elementary school a breeze for him?

Old Mrs. Song was truly happy.

Among her three sons, it was now her second son who was somewhat worrisome.

If he got transferred to a public school teacher position, then he would have a secure job, no more worries for his whole life.

This was all thanks to Little Nuan.

Old Mrs. Song didn’t need to say it; everyone knew.

Song Liang told everyone that he had already written a report to apply for the establishment of a garment factory and now it was in the hands of Deputy County Mayor Zhao.

Old Mrs. Song wasn’t very surprised.

Because they had already talked about it.

But what Old Mrs. Song never expected was that the garment factory would be named Zhi Lan.

They said the name wouldn’t be changed; after the application to establish it was made, the business license they would apply for would bear this name, and they would also make a signboard for it, to be called Zhi Lan Garment Factory.

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Song knew immediately it was her granddaughter’s suggestion; her damned eldest son didn’t even remember her name, so how could he come up with Zhi Lan Garment Factory?

Her granddaughter was exceptionally lovable.

The old lady found that as long as her granddaughter included someone in the family circle, they could count on good fortune.

Anyway, the subtleties of that were only known by those who had experienced it.

After eating, Song Yunuan took a group of children to look for Zhou Xiaohua.

Song Yunuan then told Xiaohua that her family was about to establish a garment factory and asked if she was interested in joining.

Zhou Xiaohua excitedly grabbed Song Yunuan’s hand, "If your family sets up a garment factory, I would like to work there."

"That’s great. I’m letting you know in advance. Once the articles of association are ready, I’ll come find you."

Zhou Xiaohua happily agreed.

Song Yunuan felt that now she could install a telephone.

After all, her status wasn’t high enough before.

In this era, getting a telephone installed wasn’t something just anyone could do.

To have it done without any hassle, one would likely have to wait another five or six years.

When Song Yunuan learned that her little uncle had woken up, she rushed to her grandmother’s house.

When she arrived, Xia Xindong was explaining a problem to Sun Zhiqing, who was about to take an exam and looked at him with admiration.

Sun Zhiqing had done the past few years’ papers and knew his level, with some effort, he could get into a university in the province.

But now, he suddenly felt more confident and thought he could try for Beidu University.

He was very confident about the exam tomorrow.

Seeing Song Yunuan arrive, Xia Xindong’s eyes softened with a smile.

He told Sun Zhiqing, "Review well what we just discussed, make sure you’ve got those key points down, then put the books down and rest up. As long as you perform normally tomorrow, there shouldn’t be any problems."

Sun Zhiqing’s face flushed with excitement.

He happily headed to his own room.

Song Yunuan looked at her uncle with sparkling eyes and asked, "Little uncle, is that life-extending potion of yours real?"

Xia Xindong laughed, "At the moment, it’s fake."

Song Yunuan burst into laughter, "I guessed as much."

Xia Xindong looked at Song Yunuan. It was the first time since he had returned that he seriously talked to Little Nuan.

This was his Little Nuan.

With that thought, a warm current flowed through his heart.

Song Yunuan said with a beaming smile, "In three days, the work team will be here, little uncle, do you have any plans?"

Xia Xindong: "Naturally, to seek revenge."

Song Yunuan asked, "Little uncle, do you hate Xia Bowen?"

Xia Xindong was taken aback, furrowed his eyebrows, thought for a bit, and said to Song Yunuan, "Little Nuan, it’s not appropriate to push Xia Bowen towards Shangguan Yunqi right now."

Song Yunuan clapped her hands, "Little uncle, that’s what I was thinking too."

Xia Xindong: "Little Nuan, don’t get involved in three days."

Song Yunuan shook her head, "Little uncle, I know you’re looking out for me, but with someone like Shangguan Yunqi, who is vicious and unprincipled, when she can’t defeat you, she will target your weaknesses.

For example, your mother, big brother, big sister, me, and Asheng. Oh, and the big brother too—all of these could become her targets for revenge.

Moreover, even when I had no dealings with her, simply because I am Xia Bowen’s granddaughter, she vented her anger on me, preparing to send me to Xiangjiang to marry a madman. You must have heard about it, that Second Young Master Zhong..."

Because after Xia Xindong came back, he had mostly been in a deep sleep, by the time he woke up, Song Yunuan had already gone to the provincial city.

In other words, this was the first serious conversation between Xia Xindong and Song Yunuan about this matter.

They sat under the jujube tree in the courtyard.

Sun Zhiqing had gone to his room to review, while Zhu Feng was working in the backyard, and Xia Xinshan, after helping unload goods, had gone back to work in the fields.

At this moment in the quiet courtyard, only Xia Xindong and Song Yunuan were present.

Song Yunuan basically started from the beginning.

Xia Xindong’s expression was dark, sitting in the chair with an icy aura surrounding him.

He didn’t ask how Song Yunuan came to know, but he told her that Second Young Master Zhong truly had a sadistic streak. Medically speaking, he had XYY syndrome, also known as supermale syndrome, currently incurable.

The Shangguan family, Zhong family, and Wang family were the main patrons of this underground laboratory.

But behind them was a bigger boss.

Very mysterious, his nationality unknown, but his power was immense, with influence that seemed to span the entire world.

The Shangguan family, Zhong family, and Wang family were intermarried among themselves.

Because only this ensured better maintenance of their relations.

Most importantly, Second Young Master Zhong was smitten with Shangguan Wan.

And in the Zhong family, no one dared to provoke Second Young Master Zhong.

Second Young Master Zhong even declared that if Shangguan Wan didn’t marry him, he would kill everyone in the Zhong family...

Better for companions to perish than for oneself.

This principle is understood by all.

Hence, the Zhong family were absolutely against calling off the engagement.
