ere was a bit of a misunderstanding. Mom, let's not associate with Wenlan and her mother anymore."“Are you hungry What do you want to eat” Shu Ma changed the subject, obviously not listening to what s...As the holiday season approached, Cheng Zhimin called Zhuo Yuanan every day. When he didn't answer, she called Cui Jie. Cui Jie was busy wrapping up year-end work and had no time for anything else. Cheng Zhimin kept calling, so Cui Jie had to pass on her message to Zhuo Yuanan.
"Teacher Cheng asked when you will bring the children back to Beijing"
"No." He refused without hesitation.
She couldn't directly convey the message, and she didn't dare block Teacher Cheng. All she could say was that Mr. Zhuo was also very busy during the New Year and couldn't spare time to return to Beijing.
Cheng Zhimin had been fighting for days, realizing the crux of the problem lay with Shu Tinglan. As long as Shu Tinglan refused, Zhuo Yu'an and the children would be unable to return to Beijing.
But her words had already been spread, and all the wives in the circle knew that during the Spring Festival, Zhuo Yu'an would be taking his two children back to Beijing for the New Year. Invitations were even prepared, just waiting for confirmation from him before they could be sent out to invite guests from all directions, giving his grandchildren a legitimate status to return to the Zhuo family. She had thought of everything so carefully, she wouldn't let her grandchildren feel wronged in any way.
Zuo Hong has always been indifferent to family affairs, focusing all his attention on work. This time, however, he asked twice about when Cheng Zhimin and Zuo Yu'an were returning to Beijing
Having no other choice, Cheng Zhimín could only call Shu Tinglan, but her phone number had long been blocked by Shu Tinglan. She was also rejected when she tried to add him on WeChat.
Shu Tinglan understood perfectly. You are the children's grandmother, and you want to connect with them through Zhuo Yujian. I won't stop you, but there is no need for us to have any contact since we have nothing to do with each other.
Cheng Zhimin inwardly resented Shu Tinglan for being so clueless, but she was helpless. She could only take her own nanny to Senzhou to find her.
What Cheng Zhimin originally meant was just to have Zhuo Yuyan bring the two children back to Beijing for the New Year, and she didn't want to invite Shu Tinglan. After all, Shu Tinglan now has no practical relationship with the Zhuo family. Her appearance at the Zhuo family would be difficult to explain to others about her identity.
But there was no way. Shu Tinglan wouldn't relent, and if her son didn't take the children back, he had to find a compromise. He suggested that Shu Tinglan return to Beijing with him, finding her a five-star hotel to stay in while she was away. That should work, right
Shu Tinglan couldn't help but laugh when she heard the proposal. At that moment, she was in the conference room on the first floor of Lan Shan Law Firm. The receptionist told her someone was looking for her, and she thought it was a client, so she rushed downstairs and saw Cheng Zhimin, who was dressed in fine clothes, and her gentle-looking nanny.
As soon as I entered the meeting room, I heard Cheng Zhimin's suggestion that she should accompany Zhuo YUAN and the children back to Beijing. She would help arrange a room in a nearby five-star hotel for her.
Only Cheng Zhimin could come up with such an insulting thing, and she does it so brazenly, thinking it's justified. She thinks everyone should revolve around her anyway.
"Tinglan, I hope you can understand my feelings as a grandmother. I have no other intentions; I just want to bring the children back to Beijing for the New Year. After the holiday, you will return to where you belong."
The grandchildren are smart and adorable. I truly hope they can come back to the Zhuo family for Chinese New Year, which means returning to their roots. Besides, them coming back to Beijing for the holiday not only allows them to show off in their circle, but also proves that their relationship with Zhuo Yu'an is as good as ever, silencing those who made fun of her.
In short, face is paramount.
The nanny chimed in, "Ms. Shu, Teacher Cheng has already prepared the children's rooms and bought a whole bunch of toys. For the sake of the children, let bygones be bygones, don't you think"
The nanny always sides with Cheng Zhimin, even though she knows she's wrong.
"Tinglan, I may have wronged you in the past. Now, I solemnly apologize to you." Unprecedentedly, Cheng Zhimin took the initiative to apologize to Shu Tinglan.
Shutinglan saw that they had specially flown from the capital to Senzhou, and persuaded her in unison, as if she wouldn't agree, they would never leave.
In fact, since Shu Tinglan returned to Senzhou with the children to live with Zhuo Y uan, she had tacitly accepted the children's relationship with the Zhuo family. It was only a matter of time before they went back to Beijing to recognize their grandparents.
“I will persuade Zhuo Yuyan to take the children back to Beijing for the New Year.”
She agreed, also wanting to take the opportunity to return to the city after they went back to Beijing. She wanted to visit Mr. Sun and Ms. Fu, and inquire about Yi Muyang. If she had enough time, she would also go to Qining to have a good talk with Cheng Chen, and by the way, visit her mother's grave. She had never been back since her mother was buried.
She packed her entire Chinese New Year holiday schedule, and with Zhuo Y uan taking the children back to Beijing, she felt more at ease.
She no longer shied away, and after work, she returned to the house in the city center with Cheng Zhimin and the nanny.
The nanny watched Shu Tinglan all the way and thought she was really good, such a nice child. Teacher Cheng was lucky to have met a daughter-in-law like her. If it were another girl with a strong temper, the Zhuo family would definitely be in chaos every day, and no one would have a good life.
Or maybe we, Yu An, have good vision.
Cheng Zhimin had been treated coldly by his own son. He originally thought it was Shu Tinglan who was stirring up trouble between them, so he never truly liked Shu Tinglan. Today, back in Senzhou, seeing her being open and forthright, acting with integrity, she seemed different from what he had imagined.
When Zhuo Yu'an picked up his two children from school after work, he saw them and his face immediately turned cold.
What are you doing here
I looked around anxiously for Shu Tinglan, fearing she might be wronged. When I saw her appear, safe and sound, I let out a sigh of relief. Shu Tinglan walked straight over, took the hands of the two children, and said...
"Grandma."
Cheng Zhimin has crouched down, opening her arms to hug the children.
Shouxiao Nian obediently called out "Grandma" and then stood still, a little wary.
As for Shu Xiaohua, she sweetly called "Grandma" and then warmly went up to hug her. Among Zhu Yu'an's family of four, only Shu Xiaohua was the most enthusiastic towards her. Not only did she call her "Grandma" repeatedly but also brought delicious food to her mouth. The little girl looked soft and cute with a bright and cheerful personality. Cheng Zhim in had long since abandoned her previous prejudice and now liked her very much. It's heartwarming having such a caring granddaughter, which eased their awkwardness considerably.
Only after Cheng Zhimin and the nanny returned to the hotel did Zhuo Yu'an learn that Shu Tinglan had agreed to Cheng Zhimin taking the children back to Beijing for the New Year.
"Have I agreed to this, so you're agreeing"
"Anyway, I'm going back sooner or later, I don't care about it. What do you care"
He held her and said, "I'm afraid you'll be wronged when you go back." He couldn't bear to let her go.
"Well, I only promised to take the kids back, not me."
"What does it mean"
"During the Spring Festival, I want to go back to the city and visit Shi and Qining." She didn't hide it.
"I'll go with you." He couldn't bear to be apart from her.
"You accompany the child back to Beijing."
Both were stubborn and almost came to blows over the matter. In the end, Zhu Yu'an was very domineering.
“I can't spend the New Year without my children. Either we go back to the city together or stay in Beijing together. However, it's not safe to go back to the city now, so we have to stay in Beijing together.”
