The girl who wears fast

Chapter 1444 Refuse to live a balanced life (19)

Tang Shichu and Zhou Zhan began to fall in love quietly. Although Zhou Zhan had a relatively cold temperament, he became enlightened after falling in love. He learned all kinds of love operations without any teacher, as if he had become a different person. , he could no longer be aloof in front of Tang Shichu, and he was clingy and frank.

The two were in a sweet relationship, but some were in dire straits.

Tang Shichu hadn't received a call from Li Manyan for a long time. She gave birth to a child. In addition to taking care of the child, she also had to battle wits and courage with Mrs. Lan. She even quit the job that Lan Jigao got through the back door for her and became a complete adult. She became a stay-at-home mother, which made Mrs. Lan look down on her even more.

"Shichu, how are you doing lately?" Li Manyan was video-chatting with Tang Shichu this time. She was holding a little baby girl in her arms, which was her daughter.

"Very good, how about you?" Tang Shichu looked at her face. Her eyes were full of red bloodshot eyes, and the dark circles were very obvious. Lian was thin, and the baby fat on her previously delicate face had completely disappeared. She seemed to be getting older. At ten years old, with this appearance, even if Tang Shichu was half-blind, he could tell that she was not doing well.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Manyan heard Tang Shichu's question, she immediately complained to her with a grimace. It was nothing more than changing the soup without changing the medicine: the Lan family looked down on her and refused to let her in, and Lan Jigao was in a dilemma between her and her family. …

Tang Shichu felt his ears tingle when he heard it, but he still listened patiently to her talk about the hardships in his life. After all, in the original world plot, Li Manyan had already achieved good results in pleasing Mrs. Lan at this time, and Lan Jigao also He can help mediate between the two, so the conflicts between their prospective mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are far less than they are now, and the conflicts are not as intense as they are now.

But in this life, Li Manyan gave birth to a daughter early. After the romance between the two fermented online, it brought negative effects to Lan Group. In order to solve these negative effects and stabilize his position, Lan Jigao was busy a lot. There was very little time to spend with Li Manyan and her daughter, and it was impossible to resolve the conflict between her and Mrs. Lan, so the relationship between them had already deteriorated.

Doesn't the fact that Li Manyan looks so haggard now prove that her goal of marrying into a wealthy family is far away?

"...At the beginning, you didn't know how much Ji Gao's mother was, and she didn't allow us to hire a nanny to take care of the children. Obviously we were not short of money..." Li Manyan was indignant, "I think she just didn't want to let Ji Gao go." It’s too much to spend money on our mother and daughter!”

Tang Shichu dug his ears, raised his eyebrows and said, "If she doesn't allow it, won't you guys invite her privately? Could she still come to your house and fire the nanny?"

"She would really come to our house and fire the nanny..." Li Manyan said in a low voice.

"What did you say? Mrs. Lan would actually do such an outrageous thing?" Tang Shichu was really surprised this time, "Then Lan Jigao didn't say anything? Didn't he stop her?"

"I tried to stop him from hiring a nanny again, but he was fired every time he asked for one. In the end, he got bored and had no time to spend on such trivial matters, so he compromised and let me take care of the child by myself, saying that I didn't have a job anyway and had so much time. Just for taking care of the children..." Li Manyan started to cry aggrievedly at this point, "What's even more outrageous is that he also said that women in ordinary families can take care of the children and do housework at home. If they can do it, why can't I? "

Tang Shichu:...

"He said that women from ordinary families are like this, but is his family an ordinary family? With a family like his, how can parents take care of their children by themselves?" Li Manyan was sad and angry.

"But you haven't married him yet, so you can't enjoy the treatment from his family." Tang Shichu said sharply.

Li Manyan immediately cried louder and glared at Tang Shichu angrily: "Are you laughing at me? Do you also think I deserve to have a child before marriage? I thought you could understand me, Tang Shichu, you have disappointed me so much... " Tang Shichu rolled his eyes: "Oh, that's a pity. I really can't understand why you would give birth to a child to tie yourself and a man up when you don't have the ability to survive independently, and then live in a mess. "

"Woo... I didn't want to either. Who knew we would encounter so many difficulties and obstacles?" Li Manyan broke her guard again. She cried so hard that she frightened the child, so her daughter started crying along with her.

Tang Shichu rubbed his forehead. He had a headache from the crying of the mother and son. In order to divert Li Manyan's attention, she said, "By the way, I'm in love too."

Li Manyan immediately stopped crying and asked anxiously: "Who is it? Who are you in love with?"

"Zhou Zhan." Tang Shichu replied, "The one you met is the fellow senior who often helped me when I was a freshman."

Li Manyan tried hard to recall, and finally found a little information about Zhou Zhan in the corner.

"But isn't he an orphan like you?" Li Manyan blurted out. After she finished speaking, she realized that something was wrong. She quickly made up for it and said euphemistically, "I mean, if you find such a partner at the beginning, your life will be different in the future. Isn’t it easy?”

Tang Shichu knew exactly what she was talking about, so he said, "It doesn't matter, as long as I like him, and I believe our life will not be difficult in the future."

Li Manyan opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak. After a while, she said: "At the beginning, love was important, but bread was also very important. With your appearance and knowledge, you can definitely have both love and bread..."

It seems that her mind is quite clear. Isn't that what she is looking for? Lan Jigao? But unfortunately her current life is not developing as she expected.

Seeing Tang Shichu's indifferent expression, Li Manyan felt that she was still stubborn, so she continued to persuade Tang Shichu earnestly: "I know that Zhou Zhan is handsome and has good grades. Many female classmates in the school like him, but his appearance and grades cannot be used as food. Eat, you said before that he is still studying for a doctoral degree. Doesn’t that mean he can’t work and earn money? How will you two manage your life in the future?

If only you had listened to me and fell in love with Assistant Cheng... Unfortunately, Assistant Cheng is now married, and his married life is quite happy..."

As soon as she heard about Assistant Cheng, Tang Shichu's originally impatient expression immediately brightened up. She was no longer sleepy when she said this: "Who is Assistant Cheng married to? Is it the girlfriend named Chen Xiuxiu?"

Li Manyan nodded: "Yes, Ji Gao and I went to attend his wedding to Chen Xiuxiu. Assistant Cheng's parents were quite satisfied with Chen Xiuxiu and always praised her for being filial and sensible."

Tang Shichu suddenly smiled even brighter.
